2. Trinity does not exist in the Old testament , no mention of it in any of the stories of the prophet. Why would god conceal the trinity idea for thousands and thousands of years till Jesus came !!!???

3. Trinity does not exist in the New testament , there is no mention of it as if : the father , the son , the holy spirit are three in one go. No it does not exist . What christians are saying is that we have a lot of hints for it in the new testament !!!! Therefore Jesus even according to your gospels never preached it and neither did his deciples!!!

4. Trinity in the idea that three are one god existed long before christianity in the roman , egyptian and hindu ancient pagan religion !!!.

5. A fundimental and complex idea like trinity if existed in the first century AD would have definatly resulted in many debates and questions from other religions like Jews , it would have been the main topic of debate in that time and the topic of debate between early christians like Paul and others such as Jews but we do not see any evidence of that in the New testament , nothing!!!!! which concludes that a philisophical matter did not exist in the first century of christianity !!!

For your last comment yes Jesus taught our salvation just like any other prophet of god , but as I stated in the third point Jesus never taught trinity , therefore he never preached it and believing in it would be against the teachings of Jesus since he never preached it !!!
And yes it is important because you are believing a certain important theological belief about the nature of God which Jesus did not preach; something which according to christians is the fundimental belief about the relationship between God and Jesus

peace
Friend, you seem to have trouble focusing, which as you apparently recognise this trait in myself I am surprised you don't see it in yourself. My question was:

**** Explain the concept of a unitary being and how you understand that this concept is superior to the concept of a triune being.****

You have not answered or even attempted to answer.. Except express your opinion that it is superior for many reasons.. Then you digress as is your way and list a lot of opinions about the trinity...again.. How many times does one have to state that our salvation does not rely on the belief of trinity or your misconception about it? For sure this trinity issue is a thorn in your side that you cannot let go. I don't need you to repeat your opinions about the trinity.. You've done that countless times on various threads.. Many which have nothing to do with the trinity topic!!! If you can't explain why you feel a unitary concept of God is superior to a triune concept of God... Then maybe one of those two year olds Huria claims to know of could enlighten you, then you could pass it on.

Or you can just say you don't know.. I can respect that. In fact that is an honest way and to be admired. I don't pretend to fully understand the nature of God, however I do believe the concept of a triune God gives a fuller understanding ... as far as we are able, according to how God chooses to reveal Himself to us.

Peace unto you.
