Is it possible that there’re three Gods? Which of them is creator of all what exists? Which of them rules and controlles everything in the universe? What do they do if they have conflict between one another? Don’t you think that it can cause the end of the world? Is it impossible? Doesn’t they can have conflict like mankind? If they’re not comparable to mankind why you say that he has son? If he has son why he couldn’t save his son from murder? Don’t you know that every child looks like his parents? If Jesus is Lord couln’t he save himself from other people's murder? How is it possible that God, almighty, creator of everything can be killed by helpless people in compared with almighty God? If you say that God has son, why christian monks do not want to marry and have son? If it is bad why they say that God has son? If it is good, why they don’t want to marry and have son?

Ok! You say that Christ is God. How God can have sins? If he’s God he can’t have sins for what Father will let him to be killed?
Wasn’t Jesus eating, drinking, sleeping as you, me and every person? Certainly, he was. How God can get hungry, thirsty, how he can get tired that he’ll need to rest?
In the Bible (John 1:18) says that nobody has ever seen God? But you say that Christ was God? As we know he was propagating religion in this world. He was seen by others.
God can't be needy, he's self-sufficient.

‘Christ according to the faith, is the second person in the Trinity, the Father being the first and the holy Ghost the third. Each of these three persons is God. Christ is his own father and his own son. The Holy Ghost is neither father nor son, but both. The son was begotten by the father, but existed before he was begotten--just the same before as after. Christ is just as old as his father, and the father is just as young as his son. The Holy Ghost proceeded from the Father and Son, but was an equal to the Father and Son before he proceeded, that is to say before he existed, but he is of the same age as the other two. Nothing ever was, nothing ever can be more perfectly idiotic and absurd than the dogma of the Trinity.’
- Col. Robert G. Ingersoll

You've got a misunderstanding of what the Trinity is. The Trinity is not three Gods. The Trinity is ONE God who is three persons. I'm providing a link below for a blog about the logic of the trinity.
Now lemme answer some of your other questions. There is only one God, and that God is the creator of the universe. The persons of the trinity do not have conflicts with each other, so there is no conflict to cause the end of the world. Jesus is not the son of the Father in the same sense that human's have sons and fathers. The father did not save the son from murder because it was the father's intention that the son die for sins. Not every child looks like his parents. Yes, Jesus could've saved himself from being crucified. Jesus could be killed because he took on a human body. Christian monks don't marry because they want to devote themselves solely to God.

First of all, there are NOT three Gods. This would be in violation of the 1st commandment. The official doctrine of the Trinity is that there are three Persons in ONE God. It is a mystery and can never be completely understood. Theological explanations are available and can be quite involved. Simply put: The Trinity is all about the intrinsic and basic activity within God Himself of knowing and loving Himself. (Intellect and will). It is considered the greatest LOVE story ever. This process within God is ongoing and existed even before creation itself. In fact, it is the basis for creation.

It's not possible for there to be 3 Gods. A God cannot exist physically because that would make the space that which they occupy more powerful than the God. Therefor the God would have to have it's own alternative existence separate from our own. 3 Gods can't have their own or occupy each others because a God is all powerful and they would have to be more powerful than each other which means they would have to be destroyed. The power of 3 Gods being destroyed created such energy that it created an existence between theres which is our own.

A first point: we shouldn't expect God, who infinitely transcends us, to be easily understandable by us. In that way, it makes sense that the Trinity would be hard to understand.
As for your questions...The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit all share one divine nature, so the Three are truly One together. In that sense, they can't be separated the way that some of your questions assume. On the one hand, they all work together in the creation of the world, so we can't identify one of them as the creator to the exclusion of the others. On the other hand, since they are one, they don't have conflict between themselves.
We call God "Father" or "Son" only by way of analogy only. When we call God "Father," we recognize that He is, in some ways, like a human father, but is, in many more ways, unlike a human father. For one thing, God the Father did not generate God the Son in the sexual way that humans do.
However, that does not mean that Christian monks think sex is bad. In fact, sex is considered a good and holy part of marriage. But the celibacy of monks and priests is considered, by those monks and priests, to be its own calling that is good and holy in its own way.
Also, Jesus says in the Gospels that he has come to lay down his own life. God could have stopped the crucifixion, but gave his life up freely to demonstrate the immense love with which he treasures humanity. He came into our life and our suffering to be with us, and to be with us even when we return his love with hate.

Well, the question is fine, but your accusation of three gods is not. Look up the definition and you will see that it is not three gods, and it was never intended to mean three gods. So you are really not being fair. If you' re a Muslim I expect that kind of foolery.
But just for those who might be watching who are genuine about knowing, I will give you a collection of verses in the Bible that expresses this "trinity' concept:
God tells angels to worship Him:
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
"Let all God's angels worship him." (Hebrews 1 & Psalm 45)
God calls Jesus God:
8 But about the Son he says,
"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever,
and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.
9You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing you with the oil of joy."
(Hebrews 1 & Psalm 45)
Jesus says that God is Spirit:
24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth." (John 4)
Jesus calls God the Father:
John 20:17
Jesus said, "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet returned to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.' "
Jesus says that the Father and him are one:
30 "I and the Father are one."
Jesus calls himself 'from everlasting to everlasting ':
58"I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" (John 8)
Jesus is in Daniel 7 as the Most High, having a separate set of independent actions from the Ancient of Days:
13 "In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. 14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
21 As I watched, this horn was waging war against the saints and defeating them, 22 until the Ancient of Days came and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came when they possessed the kingdom.

You have a lot of questions.
Jesus is God so He created everything.
John 1
The Word Became Flesh
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning.
3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood[a] it.
God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are always in agreement, for they are one.

ST. Patrick put it best when he illustrated that the trinity is like a shamrock - 3 leaf clover. 3 leaves, 1 clover = 3 personalities, 1 God.
Simple.

Religion is all about the impossible being possible, so I really don't understand your question. Since when is "logic" requisite to religious explanations?
