I just want you to understand, but you must know I love you and pray for you. I hope you do the same :)
You say That Jesus did not die a look a like took his place,
here is a quote"A Christian, believing in the crucifixion of Jesus, would have a hard time reconciling two of the principles in which he believes, namely: Jesus is God, and Jesus was crucified. A crucified person cannot be God because he is unable to protect himself, let alone be almighty. "
God can do anything even be almighty God and a man at the same time.

So you take away the whole meaning as to why God died for our sakes,by your doctrin.
One is wrong, one is correct.

[QURAN 2:116] And they say: Allah has taken to himself a son. Glory be to Him; rather, whatever is in the heavens and the earth is His; all are obedient to Him.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 2:116]

The Jews and the Christians metaphorically referred to the virtuous prophets of Allah, from Adam to Isa, as the sons of God, but this metaphorical usage gave opportunity to some theologians to corrupt the true religions and made the common people believe that Ezra or Jesus were sons of God. The pagans believed that the angels were the daughters of God. Therefore the use of the term "son" or "daughter" of Allah, as a doctrine or as a metaphor, has been condemned as the greatest sin (Luqman: 13).

When everything in the heavens and the earth and in between them is the creation of Allah, it becomes meaningless to believe that anything, in any sense, can be equal to Him. The basic and the main doctrine of Islam is "the absolute unity" of Allah.

I understand that, because if it turned out that Jesus (saws) did not die on the cross, it would either crumble the entire framework of your religion, or force you to completely remodel. I'm not saying this out of disrespect or in arrogance, so please don't take it that way. It would mean the same for us if it turned out that Muhammad (saws) never existed for example.
There are many many valid and legitimate teachings from the Bible and Christianity, yet the heaviest portion lies on the death and resurrection of Jesus (saws). If that were to be proven false, it would completely change the view of Jesus (saws) and the Bible.
In this case it will have to be one of those "agree to disagree" terms, lol. However I do agree that the Almighty can do anything. Peace be with you.

Edit: No, we do not because we do not believe God ever died. It's an illogical thought for one who believes God is Eternal and Absolute.

I just want to ask you out of respect have you listened Ahmad Deedats lectures on 'Crucifixion or Crucifiction'? According to him and as many Muslims understand he used the Bible to prove that Jesus was never crucified.

Tom: Jesus wasn't only a man according to Islam, yes he was human and not divine, however he was also a prophet which sets him apart from all other humans who do not hold that position.

I'm sure many Muslims find it blasphemous that you call Jesus, who they believe is just a man, God. Who is to say who is right? Who is to say either of you is right in the first place?
