Was the idea of the Trinity-that One God exists in Three Persons and One Substance - influenced by pre-Christian traditions? It is well known that the New Testament offers no such doctrine, and there is no evidence that Jesus of Nazareth regarded himself as a member of the Trinity. The doctrine was developed during the first four Christian centuries, culminating in the Council of Constantinople in AD 381. The world of the early Christian centuries in which the Trinity was developed as a tenet of belief included several religious and philosophical systems with similar beliefs. Triads and Trinity examines three possible areas of impact: Judaism, the religion of Egypt, and various Greek traditions. Whereas a pluralistic concept of God was inherited by Judaism, it eventually accepted a firm monotheism. In Egypt the concept of trinity was of ancient origin, but it flourished especially in the second century AD and afterwards, when the mystery cult of Isis reached its acme of popularity in a Graeco-Egyptian framework which found adherents in many countries of the Roman empire. This Graeco-Egyptian religious amalgam excercised a potent influence on early Christian thinkers, particularly in Alexandria. Using the methods of comparative religion, the distinguished Classicist and Egyptologist J. Gwyn Griffiths has examined the origins of the doctrine of the Trinity and has based his conclusions on a thorough analysis of the original sources in Greek, Latin, Egyptian, Coptic and Hebrew.

The poems reveal the sometimes mysterious longings for love and friendship that men and women have for one another, from the beginnings of relationships to their ends. This leads to patterns in poems like "Farm Stars," "Women in Doorways," "A Little Bit in Love with Someone Else," and the way painters like Millet and Hopper light reality. Believers question millennial parents who do not teach their children to believe in God.

Hog Cards are an innovative and practical kinaesthetic approach to teaching. The first in the series - Geography Hog Cards or Geog Hogs - provides meaningful and pacey learning to improve teaching and learning standards, from introducing countries and locations up to revision for external exams. Each card features a country with maps and demographic, topographic and socio-economic facts such as size, birth rate, total GNP per capita and population. Up to four players can play a variety of card games using the information on the cards. During the course of these games, students learn not only the facts written on the cards, the location of the country and its place in the world, but to compare and contrast the strengths and weaknesses of countries against perceived norms. Groups learn at their own pace, can devise their own games and all players feel able to make meaningful and intelligent contributions. Best of all - it's great fun.
