This is highly inaccurate. The mathematician isn't even wearing a bowtie.
I had a math professor that looked just like this. His sneakers were falling apart, shirt always half untucked. We all speculated that he slept in his office.
Also theologians: A=B and A=C, but B≠C.
Theologians designed Javascript?
I knew they were transphobic, but this is ridiculous!
Engineering is more of a practice, maths is more of a tool, theology is at best the study of the history of cults and brainwashing...
...so there's really only one science here.
I like that they drew the theologian as a Harkonen.
So you see, God is like a triangle. . . No no no, this is simply a metaphor.
Assume a spherical God in a frictionless vacuum...
This is not the best metaphor in the world, this is just a tribute.
My interpretation is one actor with three roles.
God the Maker, God the Incarnate, and God the Presence
Seems like the best reflecting of everyone I've heard try to put down a legitimate explanation.
Plus these epithets don't confuse people into accidental arianism by implying god sired himself.
Christianity asking you to accept the trinity is asking you to accept a logical impossibility. There's no point in trying to figure it out, the entire exercise is to make you accept it on faith and not question it. It's not big and profound, it's a stupid waste of time like that mind trap they made for the Borg on star trek where they would get stuck thinking about it so much they'd die.
It's like a fantasy author that wrote himself into a corner.
"Hmm, i can't have Jesus and God be different people because i already said there was only one god, but i can't have them be the same person because then he'll be sacrificing himself to himself.
Hm... Demigod maybe? Nah, too cliché, i'll just leave it really vague and let the fans come up with something, maybe add a third character to make it seem intentional" - Some charlatan, 0BC
It might not confuse people into Arianism, but it would confuse people into Modalism
Not necessarily, the epithets themselves don't suggest that this is one person switching between different settings, not anymore than the more common epithets.
The metaphorical description works better if you consider it like a TV or Internet situation where the same person can be playing multiple roles in the same scene.
What I'm trying to say is that Matt Mercer running a conversation between multiple NPCs is basically god, /s
Had a comp sci teacher do a decent job making an argument for the 3-in-1 as our limited three-dimensional interpretation of a multi-dimensional (4+) being. A multi-dimensional existence is going to interact with our three-dimensional world in ways that are impossible to interpret holistically since it extends into and is connected through dimensions that don't exist for us. Like a tesseract, we have visual representations of tesseracts but they aren't what a tesseract would actually look like if one appeared in front of you one day.
Aren’t some representations exactly what they would look like to us if one did appear? We’re not gonna see it in 4D but we’ll see the 3D representation of it being pushed through our space. Like in Flatland, the sphere pushed through 2D would be a point that grows as a circle, shrinks back down to a point, then disappears. They’ll never see a sphere and can’t imagine a sphere, but they would see the 2D representations of it.
I think it's more like if you really dig into what most religions believe, like in their leadership. It's well accepted that if you scrutinize it at all god is the unknowable all so in a way he's father son and holy Spirit and that's easy to communicate to the masses. But the truth is that any conception of a deity is so abstract that it shouldn't really be worth communicating.
But is God the Incarnate wholly God-nature, or is he partly God-nature and partly man-nature?
Short answer: yes
Long answer: one way I think of it in terms of classifying tags. We have the 'human' tag and the 'sinner' tag. Jesus has the 'human' tag and the 'God' tag. He didn't have less of the 'human' tag than we do, same with the 'God' tag than the other parts of the whole of God.
Again, more oversimplifications, because this shit is weird.
I am glad that engineers are represented by the engineer in this meme
Graph theory: If you can draw the graph its trivial and not worth thinking about
Unitarians have entered the chat.
Unitarians are good people.
Except for Thomas Jefferson
Fatphobic much?
You see, the priest is so fat, because they eat all the money that are supposed to go to taxes.
