TRINITY & OTHER DOCTRINES OF GOD: PROF. M. M. NINAN they would be considered "three Gods in one". This notion was condemned by St. Anselm. • Those who believe that the Holy Spirit is not a person: o o o Binitarianism – people through history who believed that God is only two co-equal and co-eternal persons, the Father and the Word, not three. They taught that the Holy Spirit is not a distinct person, but is the power or divine influence of the Father and Son, emanating out to the universe, in creation, and to believers. Dualism Marcionism – Marcion (AD c. 110–160) believed that there were two deities, one of creation and judgment (in the Hebrew Bible) and one of redemption and mercy (in the New Testament). • Other concepts: o Docetism comes from the Greek: δοκέω (dokeo), meaning "to seem." This view holds that Jesus only seemed to be human and only appeared to die. 151
TRINITY & OTHER DOCTRINES OF GOD: PROF. M. M. NINAN APPENDIX 2 The Triune Brain theory To really understand yourself it’s necessary to have a correct understanding of how the brain works. It may come as a surprise to most people to realize that even though we only have one mind it actually consists of three different brains! This concept is called the Triune Brain Theory and was developed by the American neuroscientist Paul D. MacLean. Our three brains are the reptilian brain, the mammalian brain, and the primate/human brain. Generally speaking the reptilian brain is concerned with survival, fight-or-flight responses, and it has an aggressive kill-or-be-killed mentality. The mammalian brain is the part of the brain where our feelings originate. To reproduce and to eat, in addition to getting, acquiring, and dominating others, is its prime motivations. The primate/human brain is where our spiritual values and our ability for rational and abstract thinking is located. Its main focus is love, learning, truth, beauty, freedom, justice, and creation. 152
