koshii answered Sunday February 27 2005, 1:45 pm: The concept of a trinity of deity is one of the oldest of human literature and belief, dating much farther back than christianity, farther back than the gnostic teachings of the jewish fathers, farther back than the evolution of white skin from the pool of humanity. The idea that deity has different faces--long ago the god was the great Earth woman, and she was the beautiful maiden, the bountiful mother, and the aged wise-woman-- was adopted into every religion that sprang from the ancient ones. Egyptian gods and goddesses changed form, Mesopotamian gods were dragons and women of the sea, and Indian gods were literally depicted with multiple faces. The western religions, such as the ancient British ones, wrote the "modern" concept of the triple goddess (maiden, mother and wisewoman) that is still used today by those who follow their ancient wisdom. And, of course, Christianity, which formed from the teachings of the Jewish fathers, which formed from the ancient religions of that area, was ruled by men--so their triple goddess became a triple god, and the female part was made into a sexless "holy spirit" that did magical and unexplainable things.
If you would like more information about how religions developed, I'm not necessarily the person to ask, but I would be glad to do the research for you and tell you. There are college classes devoted to the subject, by the way--they are proven facts by the literatures and arts of the time. [ koshii's advice column | Ask koshii A Question ]
Ask_me_you_idiot answered Wednesday February 23 2005, 8:46 pm: Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit all make up the trinity. They are all God. I'm a Christian and I don't exactly understand how this works but I have faith that one day when I die, God will explain it to me in Heaven.

XxKaTiExLeIgHxX answered Monday February 7 2005, 4:55 pm: Father, Son, And the Holy Spirit? lol your asking how can they be god? well the answer is...nobody knows....everybody has beliefs..If you think about it this way....an apple has a core, meat( insides ) and the skin...god is just like that with the Father, Son, And the holy spirit...one holds it together,without that the rest would be nothing...one is the meat...without the meat there would be anything to live off of, and the other is the core..without the core there would be nothing...my youth group teacher has a handshake for that...the first is the Father and thats handshake part is a regular handshake like you would somebody you just met or your Father, then son hankshake part is as if you were to shakehands with one of your buddies where you grab their fingers, then the Holy Spirit which is the last part of the handshake where you do the butterfly you and the other persons hands. Its something that catholics/Christians believe in I believe in it. I am Catholic/Christian. I hope i answered you question and if i didnt sorry for wasting your time learning about a different religion...good luck. [ XxKaTiExLeIgHxX's advice column | Ask XxKaTiExLeIgHxX A Question ]

superGiRL21 answered Sunday February 6 2005, 7:51 pm: hey lets see her i haven't been to sunday school in about 10 years but here's what i remember:
God is the ultimate the creator etc.
Jesus=his son, the man who died on the cross for our sins
The Holy Spirit=a piece of God that lives within all of us.
damiskus16 answered Sunday February 6 2005, 7:10 pm: You mean, The Father, Son, And Holy Sprit/Ghost?
I am a Catholic and i have an idea, but please dont yell at me if this is wrong.
Well as you know, we have a God whom we call our Father. Then we have Jesus, who is the son of Mary. If i remeber correctly (but not 100% sure) that the holy spirit/ghost is when they were "passed on". Jesus & God are two different people.
I doubt this helped, but i tried. Sorry.
