Scripture is manipulated (by everyone) to make sure it fits into their specific doctrine. Anyone that says they just take all scripture at "face value" is either already looking at it through their filter, or their just kidding themselves.

What if you discovered that the plain language of Scripture contradicted what you were taught your entire life??? Would you have the integrity to change your position, or at least (as I do) present it's plausibility?

Oneness theology is logical. However, it denies that we can trust the plain words "I and my father are..." and redefines them.

Also, if Jesus is merely the Father existing in a second mode of being... why does Jesus speak as though He's another... when He isn't??? That's a philosophical issue I have with that form of Oneness.
