If the Incarnation fits easily inside your mind,
OK. Could be I'm just prone to hyperbogglability!
:-)
"A" and "not A" are mutually exclusive categories in logic. That would be
instantiated in "created" and "uncreated", "temptable" and "not temptable", and
other such pairs. To repeat: I know this is not a problem if one
thinks of Jesus as two distinct things, one coated with the other
or stuck to the other. Or as half and half. But, to echo Judy's sentiment, with
which I fully agree: God is bigger than logic. (And no, David, I don't
consider that a licence for sloppy thinking!) :-)

Are the two (God & Man) mutually exclusive in
your mind?
Is that where the "illogic" appears as to being both God &
Man
This is where the "illogic" comes for me, that
I referred to in the message Lance posted for me before I rejoined TT. Jesus
Christ is God/Creator and human/created. David M didn't find that illogical.
I guess it's not illogical if one thinks of it dualistically, i.e., if Jesus
is like a Caramilk bar where the chocolate is human and the caramel is
divine, or if he is like Superman and Clark Kent and switches back and
forth, or if he is God with an overlay or disguise of flesh. But I
don't think that captures who he is, so I am stuck with the illogic. It
doesn't frustrate me though (not being a rationalist), it calls forth
awe in me.
