There are a couple groups that do not favor the classic Christian idea of the Trinity. They say that the Bible teaches no such thing. To maintain and attempt to strengthen their position, they say that the Trinity has Pagan origins. They claim that Babylonian, Egyptian, and Roman paganism has provoked false ideas about the nature of God. This episode explores the claims by examining the early church father statements that pre-date Constantine's influence. Then it examines the deities of Greco-Roman mythology and ancient paganism to show that there is no apparent parallel or influence on the Christian doctrine of the Trinity.
