Islam says the Biblical God is the true God.
The Biblical God says Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
Islam says that God has no son.
The above set of propositions is a logical inconsistency. Therefore I would choose Christianity over Islam.
That's not a logical inconsistency. Nowhere does the quran "deny god" - in fact - that would be the worst possible thing a muslim could do...precisely because the quran is all about the opposite, the affirmation of god. What you're talking about is a dispute between ideological claims. The "biblical god" says nothing. If you wanted to actually consider this you would have taken the time to express it accurately so that your conclusions might have value. Would you like me to correct that statement or can you handle it?
