Relative Ethics

TRINITY note:  We have had some great discussion – and debate – about the previous study of the idea of the Trinity.  So many comments!  Wow, we are thinking!  Now a little break while the ideas rest a bit.  By the way, no one said we were going to SOLVE this problem.  But we do…

The Trinity So Far

OK, so we have raised a lot of questions and, from the comments posted, caused a lot of people to think, get upset, get confused, get frustrated, wonder, be relieved, or something other than “so what”.  But where does this leave us?  Here’s my summary so far (and we aren’t done yet, but we do…
