1) Some people don't believe the Bible is true.
2) Some people think Jesus is God, and think of him as "God the Son," instead of the Son of God.
3) Bible translations have been altered and slanted to support the Trinity theory.
4) A lot of people think Jesus is a "figurative Son" who is actually God, and not literally the begotten Son of God.
5) Many people have not really studied this for themselves, and trust in their leaders for what they believe.

There are no contradictions in the Bible. The Genesis 1 and 2 accounts are the SAME STORY but one is in chronological order while the other is not.
Sure you should look up the history of the Bible. investigation into the Bible will only confirm its authenticity.
And I guess they don't believe Jesus is the Son of God because they don't know it's in the Bible or they don't believe the Bible.

It doesn't state it in the Old Testament, which is what I follow. It was written long before Jesus was even born. He is not mentioned anywhere by name in it, of course, nor are there any predictions about him specifically, nor veiled references to him. Those that insist there are base their assertions on mistranslated Hebrew; this has been established time and again but many Christians just ignore it.
To each his own, though :)

The bible says lots of things. Have you ever read the thing?
It talks of unicorns and dragons. Yup. Not making that up.
It talks of talking donkeys and talking snakes. Did not make that up either.
It says that eating 4 legged foul is wrong. Ok, kind of wish I made that up but I didn't. It is in there.
It gets its own story mixed up. Right off the bat. Genesis 1 gives a different creation story than Genesis 2. I guess the bible did not have proof readers.

Why don't people believe that gingerbread men run and talk, hair grows long and strong enough to climb, and people can sleep for a hundred years without aging when it clearly states that they can in fairy tale books?

And your point? He also said that we are ALL children of God. Son of God...children of God...sounds like were all on equal footing with Jesus to me. However, Jesus never claims to BE God...only the Son of God.

Satan is on a rampage to wipe Jesus out
Jesus is the one with the power when he comes back
to lock him up in the bottomless pit and in the end
destroy him forever
Praise God for that
