Because it's a concept void of reason or credibility.
The real question is, 'why is it so easy for you to wrap you mind around it?'
Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeNo, but He became a man and totally lived as one of us yet without sin. He was who He always is.
So, when Jesus became the Son of Man he 'temporarily' left the Godhead, and then returned to the Godhead after his resurrection?
Originally posted by @kellyjayDoesn't this contradict the post above yours by ToO, who said that using credible reasoning 'brings God down to the level of man.'
No, but He became a man and totally lived as one of us yet without sin. He was who He always is.
ToO seems to be saying that bringing God down to the level of man is a bad thing, and yet you seem to be saying this is exactly what God did, 'became a man and totally lived as one of us...'

Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeI can only speak to what I said, He became a man and lived without sin. He then laid down His life, and became sin for our salvation.

Originally posted by @thinkofoneBoth 'profound thoughts' and 'naive thoughts' are made possible by electro-chemical reactions in the brain.The trillions of connections in our synapses produce around 4 signals per second for a naive thought and around 800 signals per second for a profound thought. Consequently we can postulate that an intelligent thought weighs more than a silly thought.
lol. Evidently that one went over your head as well. You're built too low.
With this in mind, it makes perfect sense for me to be 'built too low' as this enables silly thoughts transmitted by others to pass freely over my head, allowing me to address the more weighty thoughts that come my way.

Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeRecall how I told you, we were made body. soul, and spirit? We are not one with God, we are not one with each other, and to show how really broken we are we are not even one with ourselves. When we desire to conduct our lives one way and act another, our spirit could be willing while our flesh is weak. It is not a surprise you/we have a hard time grasping God.

Originally posted by @kellyjayBelieve it or not I believe you, but you have a problem, it is one shared by me and everyoneI'd think truth and reality are kinda forefront. Not a whole lot of wriggle room.
else here, human nature. I think you do try to respect others, but when we start mixing it up
you can as we all do get a little nasty, but it isn't just you, I find myself doing the same thing.
