That sounds odd to uis because, AGAIN< we are comparing this to a human person. Since it sounds odd to see a human person talk to himself in this same manner, we assume it is odd for God to do that. But we cannot perfectly manifest as another "species" and then speak to that other one like God did.
We're so biased due to our assumptions that make us base everything form OUR perspective. And it makes us feel odd about something we really cannot conceive in our understanding properly enough.

Thank you, that is what I have been trying to say all along. Apparently it isn't just other people that are bothered by Jesus praying to Jesus, I think oneness people don't like the notion much either. But it is there. I don't really have a problem with it, I was just trying to point it out. Though, I was under the impression that you was having a problem with me saying that oneness teaches that Jesus prayed to Jesus. I suppose I usually have a poor way of wording stuff but I try to be thorough.
