That’s the way it reads when you follow the conversation.

Aren't you tired of your "gottcha games" yet? As others have pointed out your understanding of philosophy is severely limited. You do not demonstrate even the most basic understanding of "infinite" or "eternal"

Metmom I believe that this is a perfect example of "stirring the pot" or "rabble rousing." Perhaps this is an opportunity for you to apply fraternal correction.

I have been more than tolerant and patient with your attacks eagleone , let's hear / see some answers from you.
1) Is Jesus the same substance (Homoousios) as God the Father, a similar substance (Homoiousios), or a different substance (Heteroousios)?
a) If He is a similar substances what are the differences how does this affect their unity?
b) If he is a completely different substance, whee did the different substance come from and how does this affect their unity?
Is the Holy Spirit the same, similar or different substance as the Father and the Son?
If there are differences please describe them in detail and describe how this would affect their unity.

God is infinite (taking up all space), and eternal (existing from all time). How is there room for the Universe to exist if God is truly infinite?
Speaking of the Universe; What did God create the Universe out of? Did He build it out of some part of Himself?
If he did build it out of some part of Himself does that make Him less infinite since He used part of Himself.
If He built it out of nothing, then where did the nothing come from? If the nothing already existed does that mean that God is not truly infinite?

I will be waiting for you to illuminate all of us.
