It’s mathematically impossible and illogical 1+1+1 ≠ 11+1+1 = 3
>>18770948Its easy to explain.
1 x 1 x 1 = 1
>>18770948The trinity exists to obfuscate the incestuous connotations of Jesus's birth. After all, if God knocked up the Virgin Mary (Matthew 1:18) and Jesus claimed to be God (John 10:30) then that means Jesus impregnated his own mother to give birth to himself in an act of magical incest. Disgusting. Hence why the idea of a "Holy Spirit" which is and isn't God / Jesus is necessary. That's also why criticizing the idea of the Holy Spirit is often considered to be the ultimate sin in Christianity.
>>18770955Do you also count apples in a basket by multiplying them to each other to make a total? If so you need to go back to first grade. It's obvious we count gods the regular way we do everything else. When you count Zeus and Hermes is that 1 god (Zeus) x 1 god (Hermes) = 1 god or is that 1 god (Zeus) + 1 god (Hermes) = 2 gods? You also can't resort to special pleading here because you also use the regular counting method for the persons in the godhead
>>18770950Wow, we have so many heresies in one image. Arianism, Subordinationism, Partialism, Pneumatomachianism, Pantheism, and Tritheism
>>18770948It's just a post biblical explanation for how jesus can be both god and not god. Despite the old testament already having a framework for such.
>>18770948you need to study more advanced math
>>18771050It's none of those things.
>>18771058>multiple things can have the same valuewow, too bad that's not the trinity
>nothing is impossible with GodThe Trinity is Biblically sanctioned
>>18771048If you're eating a green apple, a yellow apple, or a red apple, it's still essentially an apple. You can't say it's a pear or a walnut
>>18771067>That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: - https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews%206:18&version=KJVWhy is lying impossible for God?
>>18771068It's essentially 3 apples anon. Just like it's essentially 3 gods in the case of the trinity
Right, what was so wrong with arrianism? 'its heresy' at least it doesnt break basic logic.
>>18771073Because God is Eternal Goodness, Truth and Love (there is a debate whether the original term meant Love or Charity, but it is not as important as it seems since Charity is the top virtue in Christian theology). God can allow Satan to lead us into temptation though, and Christ says Himself that Satan has asked God for Peter (Simon in the text). That's why we say "lead us not into temptation" which sounds misleading to modern ears but the Church tradition clearly specifies it's not because God does it Himself but because He allows it. Christ also says "Thy Will be done" which is just as important if not more so. And Christ Himself is lead into temptation by men and demonsl
>>18771080It's a TriUne God, not three Gods.When we pray to Jesus Christ we pray to all Three Persons of the TrinityThe same as when we pray to the Father and Holy GhostOne Divine Essence
>>18771090Great so some things ARE impossible for God. When he says he is one we should believe him then instead of saying "no God you're actually three"
>>18771058>study more advanced mathWhy? It only takes high school math to realize that √(-1) is ill defined.
>>18771091How many apples do you see here >>18771080 and how many gods do you see in pic rel? Also no you aren't praying to an essence when you talk to the Father the same way you aren't communicating with the human essence when you talk to your father
>>18771094So we should not believe the Word of Christ in the New Testament? Are you a jew?
>>18771098Essentially you are still eating an apple and not another fruit. Yes you pray to the Trinity when you pray to Christ or the Father or the Holy Ghost. Why is this so confusing?
>>18771107What if you pray to the Most High? Or The Lord of Heavens Armies?
>>18770948It’s called a mystery for a reason. All you need to know is that if you think you understand, you don’t understand. You were never meant to understand, and it’s not your place to understand. This is all a deliberate humiliation for those who think human reason is all you will need.
>>18771111>Do not ask questions, just believe
>>18771090>because christians cannot keep their fairy tale straight between omnipotence and the desire to look as if they had answersthere, fify.
>>18771104You're saying we shouldn't believe the bible when it says that some things are indeed impossible. One of these verses will have to budge so which is it, do you want to worship a God that lies or one that does what is logically possible?
>>18771111How is a spirit, equal to the Lord of Spirits?
>>18771104>everyone who laughs at my fairy tales is a jew
>>18771109Jesus taught me to pray to the Lord and Our Father. He cries out "Elohi" on the Cross. He also says I AM. I am still praying to Jesus Christ no matter what Biblical name I choose for God. This is what makes me a Christian
>>18771114God never lies. Jesus revealed Himself when He did. Why would you interpret the Bible as God lying?
>>18771107If it wasn't confusing you would have answered my question but even you know that you cannot comprehend this nonsensical theology of yours. And again that's equivalent to speaking to humanity just because you talk to your father. You speak to persons not natures, the latter does not even have a center of consciousness on its own
>>18771116>oy vey I'm not a jewThen you must be indian. At any rate, you laugh at what you don't know
>>18771120It doesn't merely say that God never lies, it explicitly says that he cannot do it no matter what since it's impossible. If you don't believe this then you don't believe the bible
>>18771121How does it not make sense to you that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost are of the same Divine Essence? For me that's a fact
>>18771113>contributes nothing to the discussion>pathetic "trolling" attemptYou're brown
>>18771127That's not the point of contention. Things can share a nature, so what? You can't track the conversation at all nor can you provide an answer to the simple question I asked you earlier
>>18771124And why would that make God any less Omnipotent? He can smite down all liars right now, and make the concept of lying disappear from the universe. Is that what (you) want God to do?
>>18771117The Lord of what? The Father of who? Those titles could be applied to anyone. The words of Jesus were never recorded in Hebrew or Aramaic, so we don't know if when he said I Am, he pronounced it as Eyeh, which is the name God spoke to Moses. Eyeh Asher Eyeh.
>>18771132Your idea of omnipotence is not only incoherent it also goes against the bible.
>>18771048You’re begging the question.The three persons of the Trinity are not separate gods
>>18771068>If you're eating a green apple, a yellow apple, or a red apple, it's still essentially an appleThose are 3 separate individual apples, unless you're talking about 1 individual apple with all of the characteristic colors you gave as an example.Do you see the problem? Calling 3 seperate apples "an apple" is wrong. You're using a singular identifier for what is objectively a plurality. This doesn't magically start making sense when you try to use "god" in place of "apples" either.

Roots. Multiple roots.>But it is still one God just like i, j,k are one numberNo, they're three numbers, each of which when squared equals the number negative one. It isn't the case that i, j, and k, are each *the* square root of negative one. They are each *a* square root of negative one. The expression sqrt(-1) by itself doesn't clearly point to one number in the context of the quaternions. Strictly, sqare roots wouldn't point to just one number even in the integers, since, e.g. both 2 and -2 when squared equal four, except for the convention that sqrt(x) refers to only the positive root of x. But in the quaternions, there are multiple "positive roots" so the convention breaks down.
>>18771148I am not, if I ask a monotheist how many gods (yes plural) he believes then he can easily answer with just one. So again why do you count the trinitarian godhead with multiplication but the Greek pantheon with addition like with everything else? What exactly makes them one? That they share a divine nature? Then so do the deities of classical polytheists. You have no symmetry breaker.

>>18771158Nope, an apple is an apple. Can't be mistaken for another fruit. Just like the Trinity can't be mistaken for anything else. You can eat a green apple or a red one, or both if you want. It makes no difference, you are still eating an apple.
>>18771744>You're not making much senseWhat are you struggling to make sense of? Nothing he said was unclear or incorrect.>were never recordedYou took 3 words out of a sentence he wrote and responded to those 3 words only, as if that represents the point he made in its entirety. You're confusing yourself by taking things out of context here>They were, butmin Koine GreekDid he claim they were never recorded in Koine Greek? Anon I'm pretty sure that poster already knew this information. His claim was that the words of Jesus were never recorded *in Hebrew or Aramaic*. Jesus didn't even know Greek language.

>>18771849Reason isn't conditional on a belief in Jesus. This was established hundreds of years in formal logic in Greece before Jesus ever existed.
>>18771850>Your beliefs aren't governed by reason.Jesus is Reason. Read John 1:1. What do you think the Logos is? Where does logic come from?
>>18771862>Jesus is ReasonNo he was just a Jewish cultist.>What do you think the Logos is? Where does logic come from?Its a concept defined in Platonism, in Greece once again, hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus. Greeks were taught by Babylonians before them, who were taught by the Egyptians before them, who were taught by the Sumerians before them and so on.
>>18771852>before Jesus even existedMeanwhile Jesus:>before Abraham was, I AMLike come on bro. Early Europeans worshipped Dyeus Ph2tr (Zeus, Iovis, Teiwaz etc.), they also worshipped the Sun whom they considered God's Son and in some places (not everywhere) had a notion of a Divine Force which is a part of God and separate from God at the same time. The Greeks called it Pneuma, the Romans Anima. Sounds familiar? >inb4 they worshipped other gods tooAs did the jews themselves and literally everyone else. My argument was that Europe was preordained to convert. The signs were already there and Jesus came when He did because Rome had already built most of the roads as God decreed

>>18771685No he wasn't trinitarians are genuinely this stupid. He isn't the first one attempting to make this argument.>there is no "they"Yes there is. Here is what google says "In English grammar and legal terminology, "they" is a third-person pronoun used to substitute for plural "persons" (more than one individual), or a single "person" whose gender is unknown, unspecified, or non-binary". The only reason you are running from the argument is because deep down even you know your theology is nonsensical. And we went over this you can easily ask a monotheist questions worded this way>they doOkay then that is sufficient for the members of the Greek pantheon to be one God too.>but not *merely* thisYou just explained the same thing lmao. Universals are inherently identical under the platonic framework your religion stole from the Greeks. Even your Fathers agree to this when he says we share 1 humanity and therefore we are actually just 1 human being. So you're clearly using the word in an unusual sense. And because of that define nature.
>>18771754>The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not "things"Okay so they are nothing? You're now an atheist, congratulations on leaving polytheism!>And nature is what God createdYou believe God created the divine nature?

>>18771899>The only reason you are running from the argument is because deep down even you know your theology is nonsensical.This is wild speculation on your part>Okay then that is sufficient for the members of the Greek pantheon to be one God too.no it is not. nature and essence are different things. >we share 1 humanity and therefore we are actually just 1 human beingtwo entities can instantiate the same universal without being the same being.
>>18771916How is that answering anything I asked of you? You just said they are not things, therefore nothing. You offered no clarification to this so it stands. And also I asked you to explain about the matter related to the creation of the divine nature which again you have failed to do
>>18771921The Divine Essence is Eternal, therefore the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are Eternal. They are not things in the material sense. The Trinity is God the Creator of things and nature. You are comparing God to things of the material world, but the Trinity is not of this world.
>>18771918That's not the case. There is no other reason given that can explain your constant dodging.>no it is notWhy not? Why can Zeus and Hermes share a divine nature and still not be one?>nature and essence are different thingsEvery Christian has a different definition of these things so go ahead and define them as I have asked for you. I suspect you won't because you genuinely have no idea what you're talking about.>two entities can instantiate the same universal without being the same beingAs it happened with the members of the godhead? Why is Gregory saying that Peter, James and John are actually one man and that saying they are three men is just convention?
>>18771754>The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not "things"Luke 1:35 KJV:>And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.Try again?
>>18771926>They are not things in the material sense.What does that even mean to you exactly? You said they were not things period. Non-material things are still things. In addition eternity has nothing to do with this. If the universe were eternal it would still be a thing. >the Trinity is not of this worldIt is though, ~300 mad men were sitting around a table and invented it for you.

>>18771962>ruling with JesusYou will be a servant, not a ruler. You are goyim according to Jesus and his apostles. The bible is explicit about what Jesus said regarding the kingdom of heaven, but we can all see that you don't read the bible. Instead of seeking power, status, or to be waited on, true greatness in his kingdom is measured by humble, sacrificial service to others. You are instructed to become poor and live your life as a loyal dog to Semitic cult rulesMark 9:35 and Mark 10:43–44, Jesus stated that anyone who wants to be first or great must become the servant and slave of all. What a stupid philosophy but I'm sure you think it's the perfect word of godJesus stated in Mark 10:45 that "the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many"

>>18772100A human being has just 1 person, ITT we can see that the only way the trinity can be defended is either to call everyone the same human being or say that every human being consists of multiple persons. Also no see what Aquinas says "the individuals of the rational nature have a special name even among other substances; and this name is "person". So how many individuals of a rational nature do you have in your head? If it's more than 1 you suffer from multiple personality disorder. Seek help anon(s)
>>18772109>A human being has just 1 personNot according to the law or philosophical tradition or the various etymological definitions of person.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Person>In ancient Rome, the word persona (Latin) or prosopon (πρόσωπον; Ancient Greek) originally referred to the masks worn by actors on stage. The various masks represented the various "personae" in the stage play.[12]A corporate person for instance is comprised of many human beings.
>>18772109>So how many individuals of a rational nature do you have in your head?The being I mentioned previously has 3 those of a chairperson, a congressperson, and a businessperson and those three rational natures are often in conflict with each other.>If it's more than 1 you suffer from multiple personality disorder.Or you are not just a mindless animal, so you have social and legal commitments beyond just your base human needs.
>>18772071>more insultsThis is precisely why Abrahamic traditions are critiqued because they handicap you from engaging with facts. You assume the conclusion and work backwards with your reason. It's tragic
>>18772120Sorry, it's not an insult, it's a statement of fact. You don't possess a functional critical faculty. You can't read at a middle school level.>AbrahamicSaaaar
>>18771050>>18771060Arius was right
>>18772116I gave you the definition used by your theologians, no shit a word can have different meanings. What in the world do corporate fictional persons have to do with religion?>In ancient Rome, the word persona (Latin) or prosopon (πρόσωπον; Ancient Greek) originally referred to the masks worn by actors on stage. The various masks represented the various "personae" in the stage play.[12]Literally modalism, 1 guy taking on the role of a character.>>18772119I asked you how many YOU have in your head. Nice to see you can't answer that because you know it makes you look mentally ill to admit that you have more than 1. You're now saying this hypothetical beings has multiple rationalities? And that they conflict? Sorry but the bible says they can never conflict so yet another failure of an analogy>you have social and legal commitments beyond just your base human needsAnd now you're just equivocating. Why don't you gather your headmates around and discuss exactly what do you mean by person here? Is the Son just a social and/or legal role? What exactly makes them distinct from each other?
>>18772123>definition used by your theologiansWhich doesn't mention humans because that definition doesn't actually indicate "a human being is 1 person".>What in the world do corporate fictional persons have to do with religion?They go by the same base definition of person which is not built around humans and doesn't presume that 1 human = 1 person as you falsely claimed not knowing what person means in the legal or traditional sense, you are just trying to redefine it to fit your narrative.>1 guy taking on the role of a character.If by guy, you mean substance and by character, you mean person, sure, one substance inhabiting multiple persons.>YOU Yes because you are desperate to change the subject to me because you can't defend your argument, but the argument has nothing to do with me, the fact that one person is not actually defined as one human has nothing to do with how many conflicting rational natures I have to deal with because I am part of a family and part of a society and part of a company and part of a nation and so on.>You're now saying this hypothetical beings has multiple rationalities?The being expresses multiple persons.>they can never conflict so yet another failure of an analogyI didn't say a divine being conflicts, I just said that human beings regularly have such distinct personas that they are in conflict without being to the degree of a clinical disorder, you can see this pretty plainly during election season where party, family, and work ethics are in deep conflict.>equivocating. No, you are the one who is equivocating 1 human = 1 person when that isn't actually the case.>Why don't you gather your headmates around and discuss exactly what do you mean by person here?Why would I need to do that when the traditional definition I provided a link to already supports my claims and refutes yours?>a social and/or legal role?It is a distinct person which is not "just" those things if you bothered to read the links.
>>18772109Technically you are closer to multiple personality disorder since that is when people think that their different personalities have to be associated with an entirely different being because they can't comprehend that a single being can have conflicting personalities, so they have to attempt to completely compartmentalize their personalities and pretend they are of different substance and not personal manifestations of the same body (in this case not in an ethereal divine person's case which is based on divine will than physical body and doesn't have the same conflicts and physical problems associated with physical bodies).
>>18772121Im white, but unlike you I don't believe in Jewish cult fanfiction.>it's a statement of factYou are assuming the conclusion again. This circular reasoning makes you look very stupid
>>18772139>Which doesn't mention humansAnd? I addressed your retarded definition of person with Aquinass words not the latter part. That instead was done through the question you're dodging >They go by the same base definition of personShow me one legal dictionary that states "the individuals of the rational nature have a special name even among other substances; and this name is "person">If by guy you meanSee how you require to redefine things just so you can make sense of your bullshit you spew?>but the argument has nothing to do with meIt does because like a coward you preach that humans are composed of multiple people but you're afraid to claim it for yourself since it would make you look literally insane. "multiple personality disorder (MPD), is a dissociative disorder characterized by the presence of at least two personality states" It's a consistency argument retard>The being expresses multiple personsI didn't ask that, does this being have multiple rationalities? Yes or No>I didn't say a divine being conflictsWhy are they exempt but human not? Special pleading again?>No, youNope! You're literally running away to corporate definitions because you cannot defend your theology ahahahaha>Why would IAnd you cannot even provide a definition of what you meant. Your link also destroys you since it explicitly states that trinitarians developed (read invented) their own meaning>It is a distinct person which is not "just" those thingsAnd that's another blunder, the one true Church states their only difference is basically their relations of origin
>>18772146Nice straw man but normal people don't suffer that way anon. I realize a trinitarian who has to jump through a million hoops just to worship thinks everyone is afflicted by severe forms of cognitive dissonance every moment in their life. But I can assure you it doesn't happen with people outside your cult. It's possible to have 1 personality
>>18772164>And?So the definition doesn't infer what you want it to, it isn't about equivocating humans and persons.>legal dictionary that statesYou didn't provide a definition, you provided a philosopher's qualitative analysis, I already provided the original definition and the legal definition might not exactly use the word rational but are are in line with that and definitely don't say (and in fact refutes) that 1 person is exactly 1 human as was your original false claim.https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/1/1>the words 'person' and 'whoever' include corporations, companies, associations, firms, partnerships, societies, and joint stock companies, as well as individuals>how you require to redefine thingsNo, I am using my original language, you are the one who has to try to change the term from substance to guy and person to character to make your false point, you are just mad I noticed your bait and switch.>you're afraid to claim it for yourself No, you are too dumb to read the rest of the paragraph before making a false claim.>didn't ask thatBecause you are trying to redefine things and I am showing how that is a bait and switch.>Why are they exempt but human not?Divine nature is different than human nature, its not an exemption, its a categorical difference.>corporate definitionsNo, I am citing legal definitions because as the link shows, they are derived from the traditional ones where personhood was not necessarily tied to humanity.>Your link also destroys you since it explicitly states that trinitarians developed (read invented) their own meaningIt says that the definition of the word you are using comes from trinitarian developments which you don't seem to understand since you falsely claimed person=human because you are trying to redefine person based on your presumption person=human.>Church states their only difference is basically their relations of originNot according to your pictures, but feel free to provide a source.
>>18772174>normal people don't suffer that way anonThere wouldn't be memes about people arguing with their family about politics at Thanksgiving if normal humans didn't have personal conflicts and I was talking about disordered people like you who don't understand that a human can express different personalities depending on the situation without being separate humans.>It's possible to have 1 personalityThat isn't the argument, you are saying that its not possible to express more than 1 personality given more than 1 different situation. You aren't claiming that 1 person is sometimes 1 human, you are saying that 1 person can only be 1 human which isn't supported by the traditional or legal definition of personhood which you seem to have trouble understanding.
>>18771981I didn't dodge it. Your reading comprehension reflects your verbal iq

>>18772187>ignores the rest of the sentenceI am convinced you're unable to track. It must be the other headmates competing for my attention. How about you people share information with each other first?>the words 'person' and 'whoever' include corporations, companies, associations, firms, partnerships, societies, and joint stock companies, as well as individualsNone of that states "the individuals of the rational nature have a special name even among other substances; and this name is "person" making you a liar>I am using my original languageYes one that had nothing to do with the discussion. It's like speaking about bats (the animal) and you like a dishonest faggot start posting about the usage it has in baseball. You literally did that by quoting a text about masks worn by actors on stage then elaborating with corporate fictional constructs when we were talking about theology. I see you little cunt. Don't think your shit tactics works with me. Your entire argument rests on redefining basic terms>Divine nature is different than human natureSpecial pleading lmao. Give the exact difference between the natures that makes the point here.>It says that the definition of the word you are using comes from trinitarian developmentsYes you fucking idiot I am actually using the meaning your theologians agree with not something vaguely related.>You falsely claimed person=humanQuote?>Not according to your picturesReading comprehension issues too? No wonder you're a trinitarian. Here I will teach you some more your own theology
>>18772231I didn't ignore anything, there is nothing in any of those images that equivocates 1 person to 1 human.>None of that stateNo it just states a bunch of properties that require rationality and doesn't state that a person is the same as a human.>one that had nothing to do with the discussionIt is entirely about the discussion because it is the definition associated with the discussion rather than the false definition you can't justify since no theologian ever said 1 person = 1 human.> It's like speaking about bats (the animal) and you like a dishonest faggot start posting about the usage it has in baseball. No that is what you are doing since you aren't using the same definition of person that they were using to define the trinity.>Give the exact difference between the natures that makes the point here.Divinity infers omnipotence and humanity infers limited scope.>I am actually using the meaning your theologians agree Nope, you definitely have not and can not quote a theologian saying that 1 person means 1 human.>Quote?So you are conceding >>18772109?>Reading comprehension issuesYes you have reading comprehension problems and are hallucinating 1 person=1 human when none of your images state such a thing.
>>18772193>people disagree about politics therefore everyone is insane like me with multiple people constantly talking over each other in their headsNo, healthy individuals poses a single core personality as we see here >>18772174>That isn't the argumentLearn to track idiot, you idiots are claiming that every single internal conflict splits you off into multiple people as if we are all mentally ill like you. And now you're saying even politics is enough to give you imaginary friends. Sorry but this just isn't normal. You might be possessed by demons
>>18772196>if a hindoo says he believes in 1 god that means it's true!no you're a tritheist in denial. just admit it already
>>18772240>No, healthy individuals poses a single core personalityNo, healthy individual cater their personality to their function and behave different in an official capacity versus being a family member vs being a friend vs ...>you idiots are claiming that every single internal conflict splits you off into multiple people as if we are all mentally ill like yoNo, learn to read disingenuous liar, I said the nature of different roles split people into multiple personas and those multiple personalities can be so distinct that they even conflict with each other.>And now you're saying even politics is enough to give you imaginary friends. Nope I am saying it is enough to diverge your personality from your personality that dominates your family or work.
>>18772239You did and I can quote it for you once again. But you can't even follow the conversation lol.>>None of that state>No Thanks for the concession, you're now a liar by your own admission. How many rationalities are there again in your hypothetical person and how many are there in the trinity?>It is entirely about the discussionSorry but modern legal definitions about corporations or what ancient actors did has next to nothing to do with the theological meaning of personhood. I would rather stick to what the doctor of the one true church has to say rather than your bullshit.>Divinity infers omnipotence and humanity infers limited scopeAnd? Why does omnipotence mean they must agree? Why can't limited beings agree?>still no quoteahahahahaha, a human being having 1 person is not the same as saying human = person but i realize you're desperate enough to need a strawman >when none of your images state such a thingInstead they state "Church states their only difference is basically their relations of origin" which you denied "Not according to your pictures" But I see you aren't even trying to defend that anymore now that you got so utterly humiliated. Pathetic
>>18772252>I can quote it>proceeds not to quote anything substantial or link to any other post>How many rationalities are there again in your hypothetical person There are three persons (a chairperson, a congressperson, and a businesspersons) in the only hypothetical being I have instantiated.>and how many are there in the trinity?I accept your concession, you are the one who actually can't follow a conversation.>Why does omnipotence mean they must agree?They all have the exact same information about set up and consequences.>Why can't limited beings agree?They can, but their limitations also mean that their information isn't perfect and in perfect synchronization, so there can be conflicts unlike with divinity.>a human being having 1 person is not the same as saying human = person Then I accept your continued concession, being a person doesn't mean its just 1 human, >>18772109 was wrong about that.>basicallyI accept your concession, not exactly, but for common discussions, it basically holds.
>>18772249>I said the nature of different roles split people into multiple personas and those multiple personalities can be so distinct that they even conflict with each other.Yes we know you're mentally ill anon. You do know that even human beings with MPD are actually just one person right?>The individual’s personality/identity/self states are NOT separate people. These are subjective states of the individual’s mind. All of the DID states together make up the whole person and that person’s total personality. - https://www.sheppardpratt.org/knowledge-center/condition/dissociative-identity-disorder-did/So essentially you're worse than someone who is seriously mentally ill. How do you manage?
>>18772256>Yes we know you're mentally ill anon. You do know that even human beings with MPD are actually just one person right?Only if you redefine person to mean human=person which you still can't prove it ever meant.>So essentially you're worse than someone who is seriously mentally ill. So essentially you have completely given up on your argument and just want to talk about being mad at me for successfully refuting you.
>>18772254Here you go fool >>18772164>>Which doesn't mention humans>And? I addressed your retarded definition of person with Aquinass words not the latter part. That instead was done through the question you're dodgingMemory of a goldfish lol>There are three personsDidn't ask that, try again. How many rationalities are there again in your hypothetical person and how many are there in the trinity? Your answers should be numbers for both questions.>They all have the exact same information about set up and consequencesYou're confusing omnipotence with omniscience ahahahaha. Still doesn't make them agree unless you believe the reality God created forces God to act a particular way.>They canAnd that means there isn't any actual distinction since humans can also do it.>a human being having 1 apple is the same as saying human = applebeyond retarded>it basically holdsYes retard "being distinct from one another by relations alone" is explicitly what the church states

>>18772241>false analogy is falseYou can't even define monotheism you brainrotted gremlin
>>18772280>Memory of a goldfish lolNope, I remember that that definition refutes your original claim that 1 human = 1 person, you are the one who seems to have trouble remembering what your argument was.>Didn't ask thatThen its not relevant to the discussion, you are just trying to redefine things to make them fit your narrative.>You're confusing omnipotence with omniscience ahahahaha.Nope omniscience is just one aspect of omnipotence, having all the power to know everything is the same has knowing everything.>Still doesn't make them agreeIt does there are no limits imposed on their knowledge or ability that would lead to disagreements.>beyond retardedYou never said a human has a person, you were trying to argue that a single human is the only valid person.>Yes retard "being distinct from one another by relations alone" is explicitly what the church statesStill haven't sourced this, you are still quoting some philosopher instead of the church and its still not incompatible with anything I said.
>>18772289>You need to redefine common wordsNo, I was using the traditional definition and you are tying and failing to assert person=human with your own definitions.But again, we have gotten past the point of facts and arguments and now all you seem to want to do is talk about me and put your gay fake words in my mouth to redefine my argument instead of examining what I actually said.
>>18772299How is it false? They even have their own trinity>Its most notable expression is to be found in the theological conception of the Trimūrti, in other words, the manifestation of the supreme God in three forms of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva

>>18772309>The identification of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva as one being is strongly emphasized in the Kūrma Purāṇa. In verse 1:6, Brahman is worshipped as the Trimurti.

>>18771877>When it comes to the persons suddenly you have no problem applying the "pagan" (read normal) counting method.Pagan counting method? Who said anything about a pagan counting method, you clown?Yes, when counting the number of divine persons, there are three, but the number of divine substances is one. Three persons, one substance; one God.
>>18772331It is, when it comes to your three gods you count them as one and when it comes to the Greek pantheon you remember your preschool counting lessons and suddenly there are multiple again.>>18772332Each of those three divine persons is fully God and thus constitute the entirety of the divine substance individually. Three fully Gods that constitute the entirety of the divine substance individually is three Gods that constitute the entirety of the divine substance. Very simple stuff.

>>18772444You are swine
>>18772522>The underlying question is if Father = God and Son = God then why Father =/= Son?According to Catholics it's only because "The Father is distinguished by the relation of paternity and by being born of none: the Son is distinguished from the Father by the relationship of filiation" or in other words the difference is the Son was begotten (whatever that means) while the Father was not and he is the one who did the begetting.

People openly admit they become a different person on purpose in some situations. Look up deep undercover agents who infiltrate gangs. They admit they are different people when undercover.
>>18772993>No, they're three numbers>Wrongi, j, and k are three distinct elements in the quaternion number system. So they are three distinct hypercomplex numbers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercomplex_number>They are each *a* square root of negative one>Wrong. They are each *the* square root of negative one in different planes>in different planesIn other words, if you choose one of them and throw out the other two (along with any other numbers you can express using them), then the remaining one becomes the only square root of negative one in the number system. Sure. That doesn't make the initial statement wrong. If you ignore every multiple of three except for nine, then, in the context you've created, nine is the only multiple of three. Likewise if you want to ignore the Father and the Son, then you can say that the Holy Spirit is the only God "in its own domain" or whatever. But that doesn't mean that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are only one God when you're considering all of them together.>The expression sqrt(-1) by itself doesn't clearly point to one number >And the word "God" by itself does not clearly point to one person of the TrinitySo "God" is basically a label that doesn't give you enough information to know what it's referring to, like if I said "that guy whose name starts with J." Do I mean James, Jacob, Jerry...? What's his last name? Usually, when someone says something like that, it's recognized that the the label is ambiguous because there are multiple guys whose name starts with J. But with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, the ambiguity of the label "God" isn't allowed to be resolved in this way.>Whoever made the other post"Whoever." Right. Totally not you.
Again, you can bring it down a level to remove the mystification of the quaternions. If, in the context of the integers, I said "the number that, when you square it, equals four," do I mean two or negative two? Do I mean both in some mysterious sense? Are each of them somehow fully *the* number that, when you square it, equals four? No, the expression is just ambiguous, because in fact there are two numbers with that property.
And if you say, "Well, negative two is *the* number that, when you square it equals four *if* you're only considering negative numbers with the property." Then I'm going to hit you with a ruler.
