they dont believe that Jesus is God's son!!
I guess that they just believe he is just a holy man..
just an apostle..
nothing else..
They just beleive in the Jehovah.. in God..
but remeber? Jesus said..
"no one comes to the father except through me" !
You're hilarious!
Seriously though, before you go stating what they believe/don't believe, maybe you should check so you know what's what. If you

oh but he is..
thats one different thing
maybe i got it a little wrong..
but most Christians beleive that they ARE equal
because the Bible says "Jesus is God, but God isnt Jesus"
which just shows that Jesus is like God, in other words equal
pratically...
Uhhhhh....where are you quoting from
exactly? And um, "Jesus is like God", sure, he's God's son, (you're created by your parents, you look like them, you pick up their personality, you will be told "you're just like your father" the apple doesn't fall far from the tree so-to-speak)...But maybe you missed thinking about the latter part of your own quote..."God isn't Jesus". How can 2 beings be equal when the terms "like" and "isn't" are used? Though it looks like you caught it, since you said "practically" equal. But...just about equal, just not quite there...=
not equal I do still want to know where you were quoting from though if you don't mind looking it up (if necessary).
Only one being in the Bible is referred to as not just mighty, but rather Almighty, and that's God himself (again, Jesus' father).
But anyway, with the whole God/Jesus being one, Trinity debate, what baffles me is this (just using the catholic religion in the following because it's what I found to quote for an example): The Roman Catholic Church states (found in The Catholic Encyclopedia): "The Trinity is the term employed to signify the central doctrine of the Christian religion."
And yet Pope John Paul II speaks of "the inscrutable mystery of God the Trinity."
...so I guess my final question is, how can something even a Pope doesn't understand, something he calls a mystery, be a central doctrine?
