According to your beliefs Muhammed is the helper that Jesus was talking about, but does that make sense? First of all Jesus tells his disciples that he will send a helper inorder for them to bring back to memory the teachings that he taught them so that they could go out and preach about it. Muhammed wasn't born until centuries later. Now remember if they had to remember what Jesus taught inorder for them to convert people in believing in God the way they were taught by Jesus and since Muhammed wasn't born until centuries later, how in the world would it be logical to believe that the disciples managed to recroot followers without help, until centuries later? I never knew of anyone that can live hundreds of years old, so with that said, How can Muhammed be the helper that Jesus was talking about? It makes more sense if the Holy Spirit is the helper who brings back to memory immediately to their minds the truth that they were taught instead of centuries later!

even as little as simple common sense tells you the 'helper' is the Holy Spirit of Christ that goes out to all the world

The 'helper' is the Gospel stories themselves. From the time of the earliest Christian movement until the Gospels were invented, Jesus was a mystical figure of the past that no-one could really remember much about. Even Paul is oblivious to what Jesus had taught.
Then suddenly, 30 to 120 years after Paul, these books show up documenting the life and times of Jesus, and talking about a helper. "oh look, this book says Jesus said he would send a helper, and now look, we have this book that tells us what Jesus said. Therefor the book must be right".

i assume you mean john14-16."and i shall pray the father,and He shall give you 'another' comforter,that He may abide with you forever.if we are to assume that Jesus,a man, was the first comforter,than it stands to reason 'another' comforter would also be a man.not a ghost.

NOT AT ALL!
Poor old Mo could not even help himself.
He had to have his old catholic wife interpret dreams and visions for him and his Uncle - the enforcer - do his dirty work.
