But this debate is probably quite moot, so let me ask another question I honestly have no idea about. Which is: If Jesus was indeed God in the flesh, why in Mark 15:33 does Jesus shout God why have you forsaken me?

Many feel it was him drawing attention to Psalm 22; which begins with those exact words....and contains this:

14 I am poured out like water,  And all my bones are out of joint;   My heart is like wax;  It is melted within me.  15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd, And my tongue cleaves to my jaws;  And Thou dost lay me in the dust of death.  16 For dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet. 17 I can count all my bones. They look, they stare at me; 18 They divide my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots.
