I know this is off topic but I noticed your sig:

The Quran states, "They disbelieve, those who say that God is Christ the son of Mary." (5:17) I say, this is true if God here means the Father, because Christ is not the Father, but the Word of the Father. Haven't you ever read the Gospel of John? You know, the one that goes:

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God."

Yes, there were some Christians like Arius who did not believe that Jesus was divine, but as I'm sure you know, the Nicean Creed which was eventually adopted by all Christians says Jesus is of the same substance as God; that he is God.
