      fruit is a category, so does that mean the trinity is a group of three gods?

            No, I genuinely have no idea how this is supposed to work. You make it appear as if you want to have your cake and eat it too. With the word 'fruit', there's always clarification on whether you mean singular or plural. A choice is made between them.

            With 'god', such a set up, the way you try to use it, is completely incomprehensible. There can be either a singular god, or a pantheon of gods. There can't be 'god' where this means singular and plural at the same time, you have to make a choice, otherwise it's just pure gobbledyasiatic

            Not always. In fact poetic use is often intentionally vague, mysterious if you will. You don't always need to choose, both may apply if you structure your sentence aptly.

            Besides, I am not being literal with my analogy because that would be more or less impossible. It's illustrative and I thought the properties of the word fruit kind of point in the right direction.

            I am aware that consubstantial means something else.

      Is Atheism just crippling Autism? The existence of a God predicates that there are things beyond mortal understanding, and the concepts we have in effort to understand are just the best of our ability, even if not perfect. The bible doesn't mention the trinity, it's a human tool to try to understand the divine, knowing it's not 100% accurate but the best we can get. This is the biggest problem with atheists, if you are going to argue on the basis that a deity is all powerful, then you have to accept when the answer is sometimes "dude I don't know I'm not God" and take it or leave it.
      IE the entire foundation of faith.Whyy is that so difficult?

        I'm not a Christian, and I think it's fine if you're willing to allow for an omnipotent god. Either you accept that or you start bringing up nonsensical copes like saying it "violates his majesty" to try and cover for the fact that you cannot face the consequences of your beliefs.
        That being said, I do not personally believe in an omnipotent god.

    The problem is really just that the autistic theologians misunderstood the Gospel.

    God is just the Father, that which is always greater. Jesus is who we can grasp when dwelling on the Father, plus the right spiritual orientation. The spirit is the best relationship between the Father and the Son, and thus also the best relationship between Father+Son and Ourselves, understood through the stories of the Son.

    The New Testament does not attest to Jesus as God. There are so, so, so many passages where Jesus clarified his relationship to God. There are so many passages in the epistles where Jesus is described. If “Jesus is God” were an important theological point, it would be explained as thoroughly as when in John it is explained how Jesus has obeyed the Father and thus became one with the Father and abide in each other. Yet this is not what we see.

    We instead see: God is love. God is spirit. The whole story, all the language, all the characters are meant exclusively for an end result. God is spirit, and must be worshipped in spirit. And spirit is contrasted to: letter, flesh, law. Spirit is alive always right now. When the Apostle writes about “the law” in contrast to Spirit, he’s not referring to Old Testament laws. He’s saying: do you believe in a God who will answer you and who you answer to, and a Jesus who you can imagine as a real human being in front of you?

      In the original meaning, the Holy Spirit simply mean “the spirit of holiness”, which of course must come from the Father.
