To my knowledge, the Holy Trinity is a Catholic thing.

Your knowledge is errant. All major Protestant denominations are Trinitarian.

The Trinity is the central dogma of the Christian Faith. The Apostles’ Creed, the Nicene Creed, the Athanasian Creed, etc., all express the dogma of the Trinity.

It is not a “Catholic thing”! All Protestants who have remained Christians believe in the Trinity.

nope. most Christians believe in the Trinity, ‘cept for oneness pentecostals, and a few other heretics.

mormanism in my book, is not Christian whatsoever, and the obamanation is a muslim,

They are a hate filled philosophy and not a religion at all. just the wild rantings of a pederast.

blessings, bobo

Not quite. It's the central theme to almost all Christianity's teachings. Now, whether the "Christians" believe it is something else.

Mormons definitely do NOT believe in the Trinity. Nor do Muslims. Nor do many of our Presidents, Jefferson in particular.

You need to talk with some people who read the KJV. They very much believe in the Holty Spirit.

I went to Catholic grade and high school and now have been an evangelical for years. Both Catholic and Protestant believe in the Trinity. Cults don’t.

“To my knowledge, the Holy Trinity is a Catholic thing.”

It’s a very basic belief of any Christian who believes the Bible.

No, actually the Trinity is the only way to go for people who believe in the bible and see Jesus as God incarnate.

The Trinity is supported by all main stream churches, Orthodox and all evangelicals and Pentecostals.

There are a few splinter groups who try to come up with an alternative (Church of God), but it doesn’t wash.

There are huge philosophical advantages to belief in the Trinity. It provides the basis for “unity in diversity” and it the basis of the three separate but equal branches of our government.

It is also the only basis for consciousness — which requires a three in oneness between the observer, the thing observed and the means of observing. Without a trinity of the mind thought would be impossible.

Here is an essay that I wrote on the Trinity. http://gillespiepoems.blogspot.com/2012/06/of-many-worlds-comments-on-nature-of.html

The Orthodox churched are certainly trinitarian. Even most of the Protestant bodies hold to the doctrine of Chalcedon, albeit in a muddled kind of way.

incorrect. Orthodox, Oriental Christians, Catholics, Lutherans, Presbyterians, Congregationalists, Anglicans, Methodists, Mennonites, Baptists and many Pentecostals believe in the Holy Trinity as a basic tenet of the Faith.

Oneness Pentecostals, Jehovah's Witnesses, Unitarians, Mormons etc. do no.
