John 9:35 does not make sense as merely "Do you believe in the Son of Man?", and the Greek manuscripts disagree at this verse, some stating "Son of Man" (ὁ υἱὸς τοὺ ἀνθρώπου), others "Son of God" (ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ).  A fuller translation might be, "Do you believe in The Son, a human being?"

Also, the verses surrounding [[John_1-7_(Translated)#3:16|John 3:16]] refers to the same person as both "the Son of God and "the Son ______."  To maintain the logic of the passage, the phrase "the Son _____" should not be translated in a manner inconsistent with "the Son of God."  The translation "the Son, a human being" or "the Son, a man" is consistent with "the Son of God."
