Christian's God had tons of sons according to the Bible, for example:

a.Angels in Genesis 6:1-8,Angels (Job 38:7).

b. Righteous Persons (Wisdom of Solomon 2:15)

c. Kings of Israel (2 Samuel 7:14)

d. Israel as a whole (Hosea 11:1)

e. Solomon (2 Samuel 7:13-14)

f. King David: "... Jehova had said onto me (David), thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee." (Psalm 2:7)

g. Satan is also the son of god (Job 2.1)!!!

Really Confusing!!! Which one to choose for worshiping today??? Take Your Pick!!!

Technically all beings are the son of God for they are all his creation...sort of. Biologically, a human makes other humans since the man and woman share their genes and then the woman then gives all the materials needed for the baby to develop it's cells, but let's not dwell on that too much.

Personally, I'd follow Satan. He is the only person who isn't ever afraid to look at God's face and say 'Oh yeah? Prove your claim.' This is especially true in the book of Job, where God talks about how great Job is and Satan points out how great a life Job has and why he would be so thankful for God. There's the whole hubris thing, which is more tragic in the same sense of how tragic Jack becomes in The Lord of The Flies, failing to see his own shortcomings and doing whatever comes to mind without realizing the faults in both his way of governing and his own personal faults and essentially becoming the 'bad guy' because what he does happens to not be the benefit of human society, though Satan is more doing things that are not God's way than openly trying to make humans miserable.

I was just going to say - aren't all people technically the children of God in Christianity? It's a lovely inclusive sort of idea.

Yeah, it's a nice idea, but like I said, not true in a biological sense. All the beginning creatures were created, but their descendants are products of the bodies of those creatures, not God himself. In some ways, you create yourself- your cells start using the materials your mother gives you to build more cells that eventually create a human being. Though in a way it's kind of split: your parents create the first cell, your cell starts making the rest of the cells, and your mother gives you the materials from her own body.

Well no, not literally biologically true. xd

We are stardust 3nodding Perhaps the atoms in you and I were once close together within the same star. Cosmic.

If you accept the Big Bang theory, we all were supposedly INSIDE each other at one point. Hydrogen particles (essentially just protons) have sometimes been shown to be able to take up the space of one by kind of 'sliding' into each other. Invade EVERYONE'S personal spaces!

What is almost poetic is that we are, in a sense, the universe itself coming to life to understand itself... Oh yeah, and remember, that star died for you!

Oh, lord, I know! Very Carl Sagan. It's a beautiful idea.
