Being A man does.

Being a God who adds to Himself Human nature does not. You are making a category fallacy in comparing God to "a man".

You already acknowledged above that being a man implies that the person Jesus is not God. You maintain that he is also God and I'm fine with that. But according to the above you believe that he is also not God (because you believe Jesus is a man and you believe that being a man implies a person is not God) Those were your own words Prax.
