    The Bible never mentions the Trinity - as told you by the link you previously posted .. so the other link of yours is lying.

    How did you figure that "The Father" in the above passage is a Pagan God - and which God is it that you worship ?

    I realize that you think the Godhead is Pagan - So do you believe in god or are you atheist ?

    Patently false! Science is based on an honest appraisal of evidence.
    As I have said before in these forums; creationists misrepresent the facts, laws, theories, history, philosophy and methods of science. Wherever you find a modern creationist, there too, you find someone with a cartoon understanding of science in general and evolution in particular.

    Luke 3:22
    “And the Holy Spirit descended upon Him [Jesus] in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, “You are My [the Father’s] beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased.”

    Those are the ones pushing pseudoscience, misinformation and blatant lies via sites like Creation Ministries International and The Discovery Institute,etc.

    Psalm 19:1–4

    "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world."

    They interpret facts the way they want to see it to fit their beliefs. I'm not saying they outright lie.

    Why don't you speak for yourself, if you can.

    Everyone knows God exists through nature and conscience.

    No, everyone doesn't. Many people use their intellect to deduce that god doesn't exist, due to lack of evidence. And you'll get nowhere making blanket statements and quoting the bible.

    People are not on a relentless pursuit of truth. They are apathetic and maybe even hostile to Christianity.

    We don't see God, but we see His creation. Even a person who isn't intelligent can realize that there is a God.

    The Bible is God's Word. God speaks to us through his Word.

    Science is not a belief system, it's a methodology.Unlike scientific claims, beliefs cannot be arbitrated to determine which is valid because there is no objective basis on which to compare one set of beliefs to another. Creation science is an oxymoron.

    Have you ever sat in on a Shabbot service or any of the classes taught at Synagogue? If you had, you wouldn't make such a nonsensical statement. Perhaps they don't have the full understanding of God. But, do you? Have you ever seen God? Spoken to Him? After my conversion from Judaism to The Church of Jesus Christ, I took a class in Isaiah in which I did a critique on Isaiah chapter 53 where I thought Judaism makes critical errors. While I still believe I was correct, my Christian instructor chastised me for being harsh and so critical. He said, "Remember, they do not have the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to understand as I do." A Catholic friend of mine said to me after I questioned her beliefs and faith, "May God teach you patience." You might want to heed those words as well.
