I think Jesus was the creation of biological human parents.

We have many threads with this as the topic of debate. I personally do not believe Jesus to be God Almighty because he was a mere man with flesh and bones such as you or I. I do not believe God to be human but an unexplainable force which brought the universe and everything within it into existance. A kind of ultimate reality and conciousness which cannot be explained or understood by our feeble minds. If Jesus is God, then he really didn't do a good job of explaining it during any of his recorded sermons. He speaks of being one with God but then says that his disciples should be one with him, although we know that we are not literally Jesus...

I understand that many people hold to the belief that Jesus is The Almighty and that is just fine by me. Afterall, none of us can say for sure what the truth is. If the truth was so evidently clear, than we would not all be having these debates to begin with. I guess we will all know in the end. If I am burning in the lake of fire, than I was wrong.....I guess that is what I deserve for coming to a different conclusion in a world that God created with soooo many choices, none of which can claim to bring facts to negate the others...Correct?

I'm thinking...St Paul?

The last verse of 2 Corinthians (the numbering varies by version) says, "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen."

I suspect Paul would have been as baffled by the concept of the trinity as many of us are.

So be a Christian who doesn't believe in the Trinity. That seems simple enough to me, and it worked for Christians for 325 years.
