The Trinity is a pagan concept that originated in Greek philosophy almost 500 years before Christ. This also where the church developed its doctrine of Jesus as the Word (or equal to God). According to Greek philosophy--which is also written in the New Testament book of John--the 'word' (Greek word = "Logos") is a description of Zeus written of by a Philosopher called 'Hereclitus', a Greek who lived around 504BC.

He used his theory to describe what he thought was the God of all things, Zeus. Christians took this philosophy and used it to write of Jesus in the same context Hereclitus wrote of Zeus. This deiefid Christ in the minds of the early church as God incarnate and the theory eventually led to the concept of the trintity.

Almost all of Christian doctrine and theology can be traced to The Book of John.

What is your concept of the Trinity? Do you know its origin?

lesbians as "lesbos". Is that an offensive term? I'm a gay man and it almost sounds offensive to me. Am I wrong?

Maybe there is a temporary hell state so we can feel more comfortable about entering heaven?

If I'm wrong and it turns out there is a God, can I just say:
"Well, sorry, clearly I was wrong, but you obviously created me, gave me the gift of an intelligent and analytical brain and left me to go and work things out for myself. As you are omniscient and omnipotent, you knew I was barking up the wrong tree, but allowed me to carry on doing so. Basically, God, it's your own fault I didn't believe in you - you made me this way."

Or might this not wash the Almighty?

Does it mean we must "forget," in a way? When ppl say, "I'll forgive but I won't forget," are they kidding themselves? I'm confused.

The Christmas season seems to be less and less about Christ and more and more about credit cards. I find this sad and stressfull especially when you don't have money to burn. What do you do to avoid the pressure to buy, buy, buy. The stores start putting out Christmas stuff the day after Halloween!

it's something universal to see toilets dedicated to men others dedicated to women. one can see the infamous sex sign residing on doors of toilets.
is there a reasonable explanation? at what point of history did this toilet segregation appear?

Suppose you went to sleep and found yourself in a dream that became your reality in waking into it and you could examine how your life was exactly on track, exactly how you combined with other parts of God planned it and there was a general sense of awe and grace and gratitude around you from every other communicative part of God there in that heavenly state and you were so relieved and comforted and found that you had other avenues to relate with the humans alive on earth sometimes, mostly with them not knowing, sometimes being allowed to relieve their senses of righteousness so as to relieve their pressures, a layer of existence and control beyond humanity, but not with any total power there either, but you were relieved and entertained by the creation that you came from and that you now could interact with even in becoming recreated into it from that conscious collection of heavenly will. How would you feel about that?

Matthew 27:5 says that Judas Iscariot when he died he hung himself. Acts 1 says that 'no' he jumped off a cliff head first.

Biodiesel from oilseeds appears to be somwhat more competitive with diesel than ethanol is with gasoline. Especially for biodiesel, current fuel costs strongly depend on feedstock costs; in total fuel costs, this SHARE may be as high as 60-70 per cent. For bioethanol this SHARE is much lower, depending on the feedstock used. However, in the US, biodiesel is generally farther from competitive prices than is ethanol.

there is this muslim woman married to a catholic man in the Philippines. they remained "secular" or "maintained their own religions by being married under the government, not in the mosque or in the church. they didn't marry under their religion because they aren't the same in terms of religion and that they refuse to be of the same religion (either muslim or catholic). now they have four children, the first child became a catholic, the second, a muslim, the third child, a muslim and the youngest a catholic. is that right? for me, i think it is just a good decision because they fought for their love, no matter how strict both islam and christianity (roman catholicism) when it comes to marriages.

It really bothers me that people are so insensitive to others. We do not know just how they became homeless. Remember, when you judge others, your judgement will be worse !!
