Part of me feels that one of the many driving forces behind many people’s objections to the Christian God is a misunderstanding of who God is. God is a metaphysical being that has these eight attributes according to Thomas Aquinas: simplicity, perfection, goodness, infinity, ubiquity, immutability, eternity and unity. I just saw a comment where a Muslim started speaking about the Trinity and how it’s supposedly logically inconsistent for several reasons. However, at the heart of his objections was a misunderstanding on not only the doctrine of the Trinity but on the being of God. If we would first defend Christianity against countless objections from many sides we must first understand how God is and what He is so that we can answer people’s questions in relation to it.
