I’m more interested in how not praying to Jesus affects your belief about everything else, Paul. There is little doubt that a Jesus who ascends to the Father and pours out the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost places distance between the Spirit and the Father, confirms Jesus in his divine role, and describes ipso facto a triune God (without getting into what he is made of). But that role was evident in his earthly ministry. So isn’t it being deceptive to appease Muslims by not praying to Jesus when we believe he was divine all along?

I don’t want to get too argumentative, as I’m still hoping to visit you in your backpackers’ hostel in Prague. Is the invitation still open?
