If you don't think so, then you'll have to explain how Jesus existed, before He was born.

Holy Cow! You do believe that nonsense! You do believe that the Trinity only came into existence in 4 B.C.!!!!! You don't believe that the Trinity is eternal!! You don't believe that Jesus Christ is eternal!!!!

How many of your Catholic buddies believe this nonsense? Are you just making this up as you go along, or did someone tell you this is what you are supposed to believe.

My roomate, who isn't even a believer, says he thinks that's covered in John 1:1 or something like that. Anyone care to look it up to check?

You posted your reaction, but I don't see any explaination contained in the post. Jesus is the Father, because their Spirit is the same unique and identical Holy Spirit. John 10:30, " I and the Father are one." Before God created man, and man did have a beginning, God was not a trinity. Perhaps you don't understand what the word trinity means?

Both Catholicism and Orthodoxy teach the eternal existence of the Holy Trinity, Spunkets.
