The Bible has been distorted over time so I prefer to use the Quran to prove he was not the son of God. Even though parts of the Bible are still the original it is not good to use any of it as it is today.
“And (remember) when ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), said: ‘O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allaah unto you, confirming the Tawraat [(Torah) which came] before me, and giving glad tidings of a Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad.’ But when he (Ahmad, i.e. Muhammad) came to them with clear proofs, they said: ‘This is plain magic’”
[al-Saff 61:6]
“But the Messiah [‘Eesa (Jesus)] said: ‘O Children of Israel! Worship Allaah, my Lord and your Lord.’ Verily, whosoever sets up partners (in worship) with Allaah, then Allaah has forbidden Paradise to him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zaalimoon (polytheists and wrongdoers) there are no helpers”
[al-Maa’idah 5:72]
“Surely, they have disbelieved who say: ‘Allaah is the Messiah [‘Eesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary).’”
[al-Maa’idah 5:72]
“And the Jews say: ‘Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allaah, and the Christians say: Messiah is the son of Allaah. That is their saying with their mouths, resembling the saying of those who disbelieved aforetime. Allaah’s Curse be on them, how they are deluded away from the truth!”
[al-Tawbah 9:30]
“He [‘Eesa (Jesus)] said: ‘Verily, I am a slave of Allaah, He has given me the Scripture and made me a Prophet’”
[Maryam 19:30]
“(Remember) when Allaah will say (on the Day of Resurrection). ‘O ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Remember My Favour to you and to your mother when I supported you with Rooh‑ul‑Qudus [Jibreel (Gabriel)] so that you spoke to the people in the cradle and in maturity; and when I taught you writing, Al‑Hikmah (the power of understanding), the Tawraat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel); and when you made out of the clay, a figure like that of a bird, by My Permission, and you breathed into it, and it became a bird by My Permission, and you healed those born blind, and the lepers by My Permission, and when you brought forth the dead by My Permission; and when I restrained the Children of Israel from you (when they resolved to kill you) as you came unto them with clear proofs, and the disbelievers among them said: This is nothing but evident magic’”
[al-Maa'idah 5:110]
“Verily, the likeness of ‘Eesa (Jesus) before Allaah is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: ‘Be!’ — and he was”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:59]
She said: ‘O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me.’ He said: ‘So (it will be) for Allaah creates what He wills. When He has decreed something, He says to it only: “Be!” and it is’”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:45-47]
“And I have come confirming that which was before me of the Tawraat (Torah), and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden to you, and I have come to you with a proof from your Lord. So fear Allaah and obey me”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:50]
“And because of their (Jews) disbelief and uttering against Maryam (Mary) a grave false charge (that she has committed illegal sexual intercourse);
And because of their saying (in boast), ‘We killed Messiah ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), the Messenger of Allaah,’ — but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but it appeared so to them the resemblance of ‘Eesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man)], and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)]:
But Allaah raised him [‘Eesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allaah is Ever All‑Powerful, All‑Wise”
[al-Nisa’ 4:156-158]
“And (remember) when Allaah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): 'O ‘Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allaah?’ He will say: ‘Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner‑self though I do not know what is in Yours; truly, You, only You, are the All‑Knower of all that is hidden (and unseen).
Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allaah) did command me to say: Worship Allaah, my Lord and your Lord. And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them; and You are a Witness to all things’”
[al-Maa'idah 5:116-117]
“ ‘Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allaah) did command me to say: Worship Allaah, my Lord and your Lord. And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them; and You are a Witness to all things’”

The story of Christ is scientific and comes from astrology Jesus being the sun itself Virgo being the virgin Mary the 3 wise men being Orion's Belt and a lot of other things coincide for example the resurrection of Christ is how the sun on the 22nd of December after slowly lowering all year stops and stays still for 3 days before rising again on the 25th (to the perception of the naked eye) you just have to look at cultures long before the bible existed such as ancient Egypt and sun god Horus he was born to a virgin was a child prodigy a teacher at 12 all the same as Jesus we assume that because we have technology far beyond ancient times we at more advanced this really is not the case they were far more advanced and knowledgable especially when it came to astrology and he stars all these books and scripture are ways of personifying something we are far to uninformed to even comprehend for example gravity is the underlying force of the earth with this said the entire universe must also have an underlying force and I'm that since there is a god as that force is "god" but as I said that is waaay beyond our rational so we personify it but as a whole religion has been used as a tool of control I the masses it's a known fact he who controls the flow of information controls very thing don't get me wrong I've read the Quran and it's fantastic scripture and has facts aswell as fiction (whereas the bible is all taken from others facts and alters and twisted) watch a documentary called zeitgeist and you can make your own decision this is after all my own opinion from my own research I haven't just read a book and eaten it all up and listened to religious people who tell me it's fact

The correct answer is that, to many Christians, Jesus is accepted as the son of God. To many others, Jesus is both the son of God and God. To Jews, Jesus was no more the son of God than any other person (we are all the children of God) and certainly is not God. To Muslims, Jesus was a prophet, but is not the son of God.
It's all a matter of belief or perspective.
To nontheists like myself, Jesus, if he lived at all (which is not certain), was a human being--no more divine or supernatural than any other man or woman who has lived.

Jesus,if you believe, is the one and only son of God, God saw favor in Mary and the angels said that you Mary shall carry a baby named Jesus, Joseph not believing, God took away his eye sight for a time and when it was restored gave "Praise" to our Lord. And back in those times it was a sin to have a baby and no father, In Luke 3:38 ,it talks both of **** and of Jesus, in the old testament Jeremiah 3:19, before Jesus was born, God said that he had wanted to accept Israel as his son,and give him Beautiful land, and he wanted them to call him "Father",but in the following verse3:20 But like an unfaithful wife,you have not been Faithful to me " I the Lord have spoken" The Psalms is hymn book and prayer book of the Bible, these were used by the people of Israel with many authors over a long period of time, for help,protection, they were both of personal and national prayer, and then there were those of asking for "Gods' Blessing " There is a difference between the old testament and the new testament, Over and over the people of the old testament did not believe and had always wanted proof (miracles) they idolized other Gods'. All of the above scripture need to be taken in context. Above all Jesus is the son of God, who came to earth to experience the sins of the people, when he died as per promise, he left us with the Holy Spirit, to help us find and live the Truth according to Gods' Plan...

Well, Jesus is the only begotten Son of God by
the Holy Spirit, Diety. The other sons of God you
listed are earthly sons. We are all God's children
since He created us. If you are not a Christian, you
may not be able to discern this.

Jesus is the only begotten son of God. The God head consists of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

You certainly follow a good train of thought! More precisely, I feel Man, humans have created gods in their own image. To explain the unexplainable. This has been built upon, it has created an industry of religions. God is not human, nor a being. No being could create the universe. Solar systems, galaxies, etc. But to answer the question, where did this all start, Man has created a god.

Jesus is not the only son of God, Jesus is the only BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, meaning He was born of a virgin, No sin was in Him, since the Blood Line comes from the Father, don't ask the question, if you don't want the answer.

You are correct in your assertion that everyone created is the children of God being ... all men are his sons and all women his daughters... however the difference comes in with Jesus as the "only begotten son".... Jesus is not only refered to as his son.... but as his only "begotten son" ... The Holy Spirit came over Mary and she was impregnated with the "begotten child Jesus" ... yes we are all his children.... but he only has one "begotten" child. All other children born are born of a earthly father and earthly mother... Jesus being the only one born with no earthly father but an earthly mother.
His "Father" is God .... not a man born of this earth.

No. In Hebrew culture the son was equal to the father. This is why Jesus was killed; for saying He is equal to God.

Well done... that's a smart bit of research that you've done... God CANNOT have a son... he wouldn't be God anymore if He did... and if He did wanna have a son, would he be a human being?? (that theory is a bit human-centric, don't you think?!!)... and if he did wanna have a son, would this son be destructible by human beings?? crucified and killed?? I think not....
