Thank you for your input

If one believes this version of the Godhead fine my point was there were adjustments by lay folks who had to authority just like today Obama adjusted our constitution etc to fit his agenda.

Obama does not get to do that legally, nor does a hand picked clergy get to debate over the nature of the Godhead or issue a world version of spiritual things.

I mean this in all due respect if one is honest about what is going on here.

Now if someone want to embrace this concept knowing it is was agreed upon after a debate well each has their agency to believe what they want.

Myself I prefer taking counsel from the Lord sense he is the Creator of the Godhead.

Not sure it’s fair to call God his own Creator, that’s really getting out there on an academic limb with endless conundrums, but He certainly does get to be what He is. And when it’s possible to avail ourselves of His promises in order to be blessed... well, this academic stuff is like doing everything with an infinite bank account except actually draw out money. God’s chief fame is in His blessings.

What exactly is this "counsel from the Lord" you are referring to? Where does it come from?

IMO, taking on the meaning of the "Godhead" as a mormon who believes in multiple "gods" is a ridiculous errand.

Also,your post #2,

"you know the Trinity was adjusted a few times the Nicene Creed is a product of man trying to make sense of the Godhead so a group of clergy put together their version."

It did not come from an anointed servant of the Lord such as a prophet or an apostle it was those who had no authority, maybe good intentions, and some of among them had other designs?

You seem to posit that the "product of man" by Joseph Smith is held out to be superior to "a group of clergy putting together their version".

In addition, in post #2 the statement of "an anointed servant of the Lord such as a prophet or an apostle" is mormon-speak, for in mormon doctrine, such "anointment of the Lord" is only given to mormons.

IMO, this ridiculous argument from a mormon point of view is totally lacking in "discernment" and a common mormon attempt to disavow the Trinity.

FAIL!

The original topic of this thread is about gossip and IMO not a place to proselytize for mormonism nor to bad mouth the Trinity.
