I didn't read the whole post, but yeah, that's not much of a contradiction, anyone who believes (or is even aware of the existence of) the doctrine of the deity of Christ can answer that "contradiction." The reason it was such a strong point in the dialouge isn't that it was a "contradiction" but because if properly understood, it was self condemning to the audience Jesus was speaking to. Furthermore if the statement presents a truth, it was never a contradiction to begin with. A mystery perhaps, contradiction, no.
