I don't want to say anything on this video yet, except for that the reasoning used in the last few minutes is... very interesting.

All he has to offer are typical apologist hand-waving dismissals & special pleading. They don't have to be exact carbon copies - nobody ever said they were. The point is, always has been & always will be, that all of these concepts existed long before Christianity. And, over time they borrowed them how they saw fit. There was no law that said they had to use an exact copy - that's just not reality.

Pagan influence upon the Trinity

The Trinity Doctrine Is Pagan

Pagan similarities at the end: Logos/Word, flood stories, Satan concepts, dying-rising/resurrection concepts, lords supper, baptism, circumcision, trinity...

The other interesting this is that this guy mentions about 5 or 6 other things that are clearly Pagan in origin, yet doesn't seem to reconcile that himself. Oh well.

Probably the question should be, is Judeo-Christianity pagan in origin? The Trinity comes from Kabbalah, which explains how creation manifests itself from the unknowable infinite energy/intelligence that really is "God" and is present in every atom. Once we understand that we are not talking about distinct entities then we can comprehend the Trinity. In the meantime Judeo-Christians continue to be deluded by a literal interpretation of the Bible. The Bible was written by Kabbalists who understood its allegorical meaning. It is based on the Tree of Life which is summed up nicely on Wikipedia!

I don't think the Trinity was invented by Kabbalists, perhaps it's more accurate to say they adapted the concept.

You are correct my friend, but I didn't say they invented it. The Trinity goes way further back than Kabbalah. It goes all the way back to Lemuria, Atlantis, Egypt. It incorporates the truth of how things exist, which is on many different spheres...parallel universes. But Kabbalah is the source of many modern day religious dogmas, esoterically of course. It is the main source of Freemasonry, and many religions are Masonic in nature. A notable one that comes to mind, ironically, is the Jehovah's Witnesses, who were quoted in the article above refuting the Trinity.

Keep in mind though, there are two types of Kabbalah...intuitive and intellectual. They are, respectively, white magic and black magic.
