Jesus is considered to be God in the Christian religion. Allah is NOT considered so to be. The question was regarding a rational view of God. I don't think you can rationally claim that both Jesus and Allah are God. You have made a fine speech but you have not shown how two conflicting ideas can be rational. You also threw in some insults which were unnecessary. If you do not wish to discuss the topic you can simply say so. Insults are not required. As to going to that thread, my comment had nothing to do with your dispute with that person. My point is that you have not cornered the market on rationality by any means. You really ought to challenge statements for their rationality (as I did with you)--one by one--rather than simply tar people with a broad brush. I have simply said that IF you claim that Allah is the ONLY rational God amongst thousands of contenders...then you need to explain that. It is irrational to believe in monotheism while yet pretending that all of thousands of Gods are equally rational as to logical argument and conclusion. If it bothers you to discuss this simple matter here, then we can stop discussing it or we can discuss it elsewhere. Nothing to get in a snit over.
