Welcome to the site!

Albert Einstein wrote to Gutkind, 'the Bible a collection of venerable but still rather primitive legends. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change anything about this. '

There's also 10 or more other sects of Christianity outside of those two. For every catholic argument there is, i can just use a scholar such as meister Eckhart who takes this perspective into question. Which he got put on trial for, by the way. You cant question the dominant perspective, which in itself is in large part why it is the main sect, its far less forgiving than the Quakers for instance. Spread through the sword. These debates don't go far, as they're wholly about interpretation. Any argument can be argued for in the bible, pro slavery, no slavery? you can argue anything.

I know plenty of protestants who disagree with the topic, it is only certain states of America that have cut the lime such that protestants are pigeonholed into 'pure' trinitarianism as opposed to seeing Jesus as an independent son.

Why did Jesus say, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

I have a feeling the voting population will be my down fall.

If you win this debate, Debate me on it. We will see how easy it is, there's a reason Catholicism isn't the only sect of Christianity.

This counter will be easy

There are 2 opposing views that use the scripture to justify it:

1) Jesus was a chosen, special son independent from God sent to be the true prophet.
2) (Islamic and Jewish perspective) Jesus was a slightly deluded messiah of sorts who genuinely was in touch with the real God but had misunderstood his purpose, overestimating it.

So will you be arguing that the scriptures say that Jesus was God? Because that isn't really disputable. Now whether or not the Bible is a reliable or accurate source, that's something that can be discussed.
