As a result many of the pagan beliefs and traditions found their way into the Christian religion. Many followers of Christianity came to believe them as an integral part of their religion. 47-this shows teat God should not be compared with an ocean and it should not be mid that Christ was filled with it as much as it was possible. For it is necessary that God should be a physical being, so that a portion of its body might be separated from it and transingrated into the another's body.
Evidently, the matter is composed of ingredients and this fact does not correspond with the nature of God who is not a composite being. 48-It is worthwhile mentioning that the argument for monotheism is not confined to the method mentioned above. There are more other reasoning given in books of philosophy and logic. Dr.
Gustave Le Bon, the well-known French sociologist, writes: "During the first five hundred years of its life, Christianity continued to evolve, assimilating the philosophical and religious aspects of Greek and Oriental culture, and be- came a mixture of Oriental beliefs especially Egyptian and Persian beliefs which had spread about the first Christian century in the former pagan regions of Europe ...
The people substituted the new concept of the Trinity (The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit) for the old system of the trinity (Jupiter, Juno and Minerva) and continued their traditional rituals. The Christian saints replaced the old minor gods." William James Durant, the author of "The Story of Civilization", after describing John, his book of Revelations and the Gospel of John, writes: "Christianity has not abolished Polytheism, but has adopted it.
The moribund Hellenic spirit was revived by the traditions and theological principles of the Church… The doctrines of God's trinity... and the survival of the individual to be rewarded or punished came from Egypt. Christianity has been the last great creation of the ancient pagan world." The followers of the Trinity constantly change their reasoning according to time and place in order not to be defeated by other doctrines.
Sometimes they say: "By the Trinity we do not mean that three different Gods exist, which contradicts with monotheism.
