Because that's exactly what Polytheists believe; Hindus claim the exact same thing,that the many "incarnations" are just all forms of one being. Even then if we take the Trinitarian doctrine on face value; It's three "manifestations' or as Evangelicals like to put it, Three Persons, which means three different distinct identities, shows that they are three beings. Not one being. hence polytheism all over again.

Hindus believe in different deities and Brahman as a godhead, who gives rise to the other archetypes. Triads of deities, signified, perfection or completeness in ancient Egyptian mythology and the (solar creator god) Atum for example gave birth to Shu and Tefnut. Indo-European and Afroasiatic religions have common origins in the Near East/Western Asia and it is in this region where civilization, first developed.


In Christian Trinitarianism, the godhead is the source of the Trinity. However his three "Persons" are co-equal and indivisible. Hence Christianity is far from being a polytheistic religion. A conjoined trinity has Pagan associations i.e. Triquetra/Valknutof symbols. However these represent, the integration of three different elements and they aren't Trinitarian symbols.

"Not at all, we pray "towards" the black stone not TO The Black Stone; unlike Christians, Muslims don't identify the black stone as deity, where as you identify Jesus as deity. We dont praise the Black Stone as Deity, you praise Jesus and physical replicas of Jesus as embodying the "spirit" of the deity."

In Christianity, sacred Christian artifacts and buildings such as churches can be consecrated. However Christians do not belive that relics or other objects are inhabited by a spirit, but rather that they can be blessed or hold symbolic significance.

Hahah, I was waiting for you to say the "coequal" part, if they're coequal, then they're divisible, coequal also means they "share" EQUAL power besides being distinct. Which is Paganism.

Your theology is Pagan; even if we accepted your claim that Islam is based on Paganism. It is Theologically Monotheistic, which is what Monotheism is, Christianity as you have disproved yourself by saying "coequal" is Theologically Pagan.


Look up the definition of coequal, by definition it nullifies your conclusion; it's a logical contradiction.


co·e·qual

   /koʊˈikwəl/ Show Spelled[koh-ee-kwuhl] Show IPA
adjective 1. equal with another or each other in rank, ability, extent, etc.: The two top students werecoequal.

Even this fancy smancy flow chart of "Godhead" has different parts each part dependent on the other; I understand it was trying to use the Geometric representation of "angles" in an equilateral triangle to demonstrate a concept, but it's flawed, since in an equilateral triangle the angles are distinct and can be divided, and the center of the triangle is not geometrically equivalent to each angle or the superposition of each angle.




The website I got this photo from says "calling the Church back to THE CROSS".....you never hear Muslims say "Calling the Ummah back to the Ka'ba"





Already posted this photo, but it's obvious that this is not merely a sacred relic; but an Image ...i.e. an IDOL of the deity he's worshipping. the Black Stone is a "sign" and not an image.

You also don't see Muslims being religiously motivated to get the "Black Stone" tattooed on to their body.

When the british invaded afghanistan they used the buddah for target practice but were mainly still intact because of the lack of fire power at that time.

It was a relic of the past. It wasn't being worshiped, it wasn't hurting anything, and they blew it up to make a political point.

I think these were the largest statues ever buillt by humans, considering they were built more then 2000 years ago is a great piece of work

They were built 1500 years ago, not 2,000. They were built during the reign of the Hephtalites, who initially hated Buddhism. They allowed them to flourish, probably as long as they paid tribute to the Hephtalite nomadic kingdom.
