You've confused me a great deal. If the trinity is a "a man made construct to describe the principle that the Bible conveys" then there is no point argueing about it, because you've just told me it's made up and is a theory used to describe a principe. Plus it sounds like you don't believe in it, although i might be wrong.
Care to explain your position and beliefs?
may God bless you.
MAshallah-i agree with this statement
Sorry Steve, you've got it all wrong,
Perhaps a question to be asked is why does Muhammed scorn the prohet Jesus, and then speak of the dangers of scorning others?
"Far is it removed from His transcendent majesty that he should have a son."
Man is always putting his own limitations on God. A Prophet is a prophet, and while God may speak through him that does not mean he is not subject to error.
How much blood has been spilled because of this claim? It is all the dark one needed to confuse the righteous and to sow fear and distrust.
Also, claiming Muhammed as the authority essentially renders God meaningless. God is no longer speaking for himself and making his own decisions. If Jesus is only a prophet, then why woud he describe himself as the Son of God, and be capable of miracles?
How can they both be prophets if they contradict each other? In fact, you have given Muhammed the mantle of "infalibility," which is the same thing that the Popes erroneously claimed. So rather than questioning the concept of trinity (which is okay to question) it seems to me that the bigger thing that needs to be questioned is both the infallibility of Muhammed, and those that think they are infallible in their reading of scripture.
It is God that is all-knowing, not man.

Let me make ,my previous statement clear "Far is it removed from His transcendent majesty that he should have a son." Not my statement, but the statement of Allah/God---Muhammed is not the athourity in the Qu'ran, Allah is, sorry to confuse you.
Please note everything in the Qu'ran is the word of God/Allah, now you know---this is what Muslim's believe anyway. Peace and 1 love
