This isn't me converting to Christianity, this is just me not understanding the Islamic argument against Christianity that the holy trinity doesn't make sense.
Both the quran and the bible are full of things that are physically impossible and seemingly not logical to the human mind.
Sticks turn into snakes, god makes man from dust, he could have made him from nothing but just felt like using dust, he also molded men from clay aswell for some reason. Virgins get pregnant.
God can read minds, know everything, destroy mankind and create a new race. He has power over all things. He gave Muhammad the power to split the moon in two, just to show off to some people who didn't believe he was a prophet, then I assume he managed to put the moon back together again.
He gave Muhammad a magic horse that could travel across the sky.
Yet there's all this god can do, and he does have power over everything yet he doesn't have the power to be a man while at the same time as going about his godly duties, even if he wanted to he couldn't do this.
Why?
It isn't because god is a simple natural being, on a regular basis he manipulates the natural order of things.
Also it not making sense doesn't preclude it from being true.
Many things on this earth that clever people understand, aren't understood by me. This would lead me to believe if my intelligence can be confused by concepts understood by lowly mortals it's more than likely that there would be a concept understood by god would never be understood by me.
I would say in fact, I believe concepts that make perfect sense to humanity are even more obviously man made than those that aren't. That's just an opinion, I don't believe any idea in any book isn't man made anyway.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
