I'm confused. You're saying that you know Christ, yet you don't believe he was God?
We are to worship God, but we cannot reach God through any other Way but Christ, his Son. Therefore, in order to praise God, we must acknowledge and give thanks for the gift of mercy through Jesus.

Catholics will disagree with you. We believe that Jesus is both human and divine at the same time. So yes, Jesus is/was a human man, but he has always been and ever will be also God.
In case you are interested, by the way, "Christ" isn't a name of a person but a title. It's like calling someone "Messiah" or even "President."

We Christians give all the glory to God and his son. We pray through Jesus to God. Big difference. When we worship Jesus is our way of saying Thank you for dieing on the cross to save us.

God is in three parts, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We can worship Jesus, and be thankful for what He has done for us. We worship and honor God the creator , because he is god.

blasphemy is more speaking against god. if your worshipping a man thats more idolizing. creating a false god. however if christ and god are the same. as so many claim then it doesnt matter. if they are different as others claim. then christianity is similiar to greek mythology. main god has a son. a female lets evil into the world. theres a place (hell/hades) for bad people to go when they die...

He is both God and man. The scripture says that He emptied himself and came as man, but Jesus is still God. This is where the Trinity comes from.

Look I'm not a christian and I know the answer,
1 - Jesus is not GOD
2 - Jesus is the Son of God
3 - You ask for forgiveness thur Jesus
4 - You may worship God, not Jesus
5 - You pray for anything you want to God, except forgiveness, that you pray to Jesus

Isn't your DNA you? Well, Jesus is kind of like God the Father's DNA--so we are wordhipping God when we worship Jesus. He has even said "When you see me you see the Father" and "The Father and I are one"

No; it's misdirected. At John 4:8, Jesus said to Satan, "It is Jehovah God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service."

He, himself, might see it that way, I've always felt that Jesus wanted to be emulated, not worshiped.
