Belief in the Trinity is key to belief in Jesus. Incorrect belief in the Trinity means you do not know Christ since Christ is in the Trinity.

Also to make a Tradition based argument; the Nicean Creed generally agreed upon to be the definition of Christianity clearly states the existence of the Trinity.

Wow, I was just reading something on the anti-feminist site that made me crack up.
I don't expect most people to care, considering that 50,000,000 American women have killed their own babies; but I know some decent ladies do. Not one man has ever had an abortion! Feminism is the rot of America. Women today have become imprudent, arrogant, worldly and angry at everything. They are lewd, rude and crude!
Wow, really?! No man has ever had an abortion?! HOW MORAL OF THEM! 'Course it doesn't matter that no man has ever had a baby either! And of course, he doesn't count the number of men who have performed abortions, or the number of men who have forced women to have abortions...lol.

Check out the guy's article on the Jonas Brothers!

Here's an excerpt:
Please, please listen to me. Your child is in danger! The human mind is incredibly intelligent, more than you can imagine. Your brain processes things that you cannot hear. The eyes work the same way. The government is now installing fluorescent lights in Minnesota that transmit internet data from office computers. It's wireless internet, but through your ceiling light bulbs. The eyes don't notice it because the frequency is so high. Music works in a similar way. Our ears cannot hear Satan being praised, but your brain does hear it, and subconsciously obeys subliminal commands.
I agree that the Jonas Brothers don't have as good a Christian witness as they could have, especially since they openly claim to be Christians, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that they're Satan-worshippers...

Dude, that's almost hilarious.

As for the Trinity debate, I don't know what that denomination is, DAM, but as our dearest Whit once said, "A lie believed by a million people is still a lie".

As a side note, has anyone ever heard of Cutting Edge Ministries?

That actually makes a lot of sense, you could be right! It perfectly explains how over the top they are. On the feminism topic for example, they could believe that Christians are anti-women and thus take that supposed view to the extreme and present it as the actual belief. I think you’re on to something.

Obviously no man had personally had one, if that was really what they’re saying then they’re even more absurd than I thought. But I think what they mean is no man has ‘had’ an abortion as far as choosing it. Which is still wrong though.

It's probably not a group then, and if he says he's a Christian publicly, then maybe it's not atheists?

If he wants people to believe it then he wouldn’t admit it’s a hoax. :shrugs:
All that really shows is the person behind it, not his motives. But you might be right.

There are some really messed up but religious people out there, who sometimes try to compensate for their issues with religiousness. This could very well be an example of that.

Could be. Maybe he was so messed up that he actually did those things because he thought he was serving God or something. Stranger things have happened.

I knew what you meant, I was agreeing with you. Apparently my meaning was the one that wasn’t evident.

It does! It really does. Maybe Cutting Edge is the same way.
