RE: Jesus is the God of the Old Testament
This illustrates perfectly what happens when the limited human mind is faced with trying to make sense of the Infinite. If you, Stan, can contemplate that light is both wave and particle - why can you not contemplate that Christianity, from a limited human perspective,and another, or all other, religious views are "true"?
Christians believe Jesus was crucified and rose from the dead to save those who believe this.
Muslims do not believe this and therefore cannot be saved by it.
The two are fundamentally incompatible, since one denies the very basis of the other.
If you watch the various videos on The Simulation Hypothesis, you'll discover that sometimes the only thing determining whether a photon is a wave or a particle is whether you are looking at it. One theory that explains this is that we are living in a simulation that doesn't bother rendering a particle unless someone is looking at it - just like video game simulations work. So examining an apparent contradiction leads us to a new discovery.
Many humans are familiar with physical bodies being indwelt by a spirit. Jesus' physical body is indwelt by the Spirit of God. Thus, He can be physically a human and spiritually God at the same time. This is just rough metaphor to aid human understanding and not the full story. Jesus was God the Son and communicating with God the Father in the beginning before he ever took on human form. When they say they are One is means more than just "in agreement." Think of how the Star Trek Borg collective was One and you are getting closer.
"We are the Borg. Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile."
On the other hand, if Jesus says that the only way to be saved is believing in what He did for us on the cross and Muhammad says that he didn't do anything on the cross then these are not dual realities these are contradicting statements. They can't both be true.
Extend this to all other religions. Jesus says he's only giving life to those who believe in him and not for any other reason. All other beliefs contradict Him by saying that there are other things humans can do. This is irresolvable. If there turns out to be even one other Way, then Jesus is wrong.
But doesn't being a wave deny being a particle? How can you hold to that?
