Some people believe that the body of Christ vaporized.

Interesting. Don't think I've heard that before.

You know how the say every breath we take includes some molecules that were in the final breath of Julius Ceasar? Well, if Jesus' body vaporized,....... Never mind!

One GOD in spirit, with different forms of manifestion, with the essence of his being revealed in Jesus. God has manifested himself in various and different manners throughout the Bible... Melchesidek, burning bush, a dove (Maybe?) Anyway.. but the express image of himself was revealed in Jesus, and they are one and the same Spirit.

Agnostically speaking, I don't know. :D

I agree that the Holy Ghost is not a person...but is a spirit. God is a spirit also. John 4:24

But don't you think we go round and round in this subject over and over again ad nauseum?

OK. I don't know if God exists, and if He does, I lean to deism: He's not interfering, talking to anyone, inspiring any writing, etc.

Do you ever consider people who really have no hope?
