And there is your biggest conflict with Islam as Christ is depicted only as a prophet, not as God manifested in the flesh.

Yes, it's why they say we are idol worshipers and believe in three gods. Many Jews also accuse us of this and reject Jesus as Messiah because they believe worshiping Him would be disobedient to the commandment to have no other gods before the One God, Hashem.

This article clearly states with sources, in no uncertain terms, ten or more times, the addition of a divinity.

That immediately violates the "First" Commandment (there's a reason it is first). Numerous violations of fundamental Torah teachings (if a dead man who is called god hanging from a cross, or even just the cross, isn't an idol, what is?) abound.

Of the big three, Judaism and Islam *are* monotheistic and don't worship idols or Prophets or men.

The reason Judaism and Christianity are different religions is because they worship DIFFERENT GODS. Res ipsa loquitur.

HaShem created man in the image of God. Man created a god in the image of man - an extreme violation.

Yeshayahu - Chapter 45: 20-23

Assemble and come, approach together, you survivors of the nations; those who carry their graven wooden image and pray to a god who does not save, do not know.

Declare and present, let them even take counsel together; who announced this from before, [who] declared it from then? Is it not I, the Lord, and there are no other gods besides Me, a just and saving God there is not besides Me.

Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God, and there is no other.

By Myself I swore, righteousness emanated from My mouth, a word, and it shall not be retracted, that to Me shall every knee kneel, every tongue shall swear."
