I think Muhammad was just more of a crappy person that made up shit to justify anything he wanted or wanted to do rather than being tricked by a demon.
I did answer your question. Looks like the Mighty Pelican brought us together. Birds of a feather, may we fly high to the sky!
What's this essence of God and personhood stuff you believe in? What in the world is consubstantiation? To justify their worship of a man, Christians have to jump through some major hoops. Not only do you worship a man as God, you worship 3 God's and tell yourself it's really one God. Listen to the way Christians talk when you're at church and count how many times you hear the phrase "God and Jesus" instead of just "God". Try it
I'll leave the Mohammed stuff aside for now. I'm not convinced, especially when you're still using their talking points about the trinity being polytheism. Nobody, I mean nobody, attacks Christianity from a unitarian perspective, not even the most militant atheists.
You didn't answer why, of all people on this conspiracy theory board, you're asking deep theological questions of me, and moreover not taking the answers very seriously.
Honestly, though, if you expect a systematic theology from the bible like geometry or Newtonian physics, you won't get it. There is a limit to human reason, which is why certain things are revealed by divine revelation.
To your comment: Jesus as the 2nd person of the Trinity had two natures, a human nature and his nature as God. That's what consubstantial mean, of two essences but the same identity. Outside of time, God always existed, but inside of time he became incarnate of the virgin Mary and became man while still God. This, of course, is the divine revelation I'm referring too.
