If God had a son, then god is not pure : he displays human behavior & proving that he (just like any creature) has a race & genes. How would I respect my god, if he like humans, reproduce ?

I could never understand why you guys look at it this way. What's the logic?[...]

Well, I suppose even a god has to bust his nut once in a while...
Christians believe, that god made them in his image, therefore they suspect him of harboring the same desires they do, only on a greater scale. Sure - it's stupid, but what else is new?

No logic involved Atlas, you simply believe a different myth to christians.

I can never understand why theists can accept their myth as fact and treat other myths as fiction yet not be able to see that the 'other' believer believes as passionately as they do.

You're both right in your own beliefs but ultimately wrong in each others eyes. The logical position is to believe neither myth.

Hmmm, thought for sure you would bring up the fact that the bible makes no mention of the Koran, Mohammed or his child bride. Doesn't that make the bible blasphemous?

Don't forget that the NT does "fulfill", in some very skewed way, one prophecy found in the OT... The Kur'an fulfills no such prophecy... does it?

If I'm not mistaken, the Muslims believe that Muhammad was the future prophet to succeed Moses that is mentioned in the Torah?

Ah, indeed...
Seems related to this:
Quote:In the Book of Deuteronomy, Moses relays what God told him, “I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee (Moses), and will put My words in his mouth; and will speak unto them all that I shall command him.”

Father (1)
Son (2)
Holy Spirit (3)

So that's 1.. 2.. 3..

Yes the Personages of God.

Again God being a title, and not a name.
