ALTER2EGO -to- EVERYONE:
Although there are no scriptures in the Bible to support the trinity dogma (the 3-in-1 god), it remains the central doctrine for most of the 41,000 denominations within Christendom. Christendom's trinity, written in Article I of The Catholic Faith, is defined as follows:
"There is but ONE living and true GOD, everlasting, without body, parts, or passions; of infinite power, wisdom, and goodness; the maker and preserver of all things both visible and indivisible. And in unity of this Godhead there be THREE PERSONS Persons, of one substance, power, and eternity; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost."

QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION:
1. Are there scriptures in the Bible that you think support the teaching of Trinity? If so, quote up to four (4) scriptural examples, and then explain why you have concluded that the verses are with reference to Christendom's trinity.
2. Why is it that trinity is found in pagan/false religions that never worshipped the God of the Judeo-Christian Bible? For instance, there were pagan trinities at least 200 years before Jesus came to the earth as a human.
3. If the Trinity is a Bible teaching, why is it that Jesus and his apostles who followed him around never taught anyone about the Trinity?
4. How is it that the Trinity teaching did not become "Christian" teaching until the Christianized Romans (who later called themselves Roman Catholics) copied the philosophy from pagan/false religions--AFTER the resurrected Jesus Christ returned to heaven?
5. Are the words "Trinity" and "Godhead" in the Bible? If so, were those words part of the original writings?
