so like, what is the holy spirit?
the father i get, thats god. the son i get, thats jesus. but where does the holy spirit come from??? i asked a bunch of my christian friends in high school and the only good explanation i got was that it’s jesus’ ghost, and that the reason it still exists after he revived is bc he exists outside of time?? so he’s a time-traveling jesus force-ghost?? which doesn’t really make sense to me bc it seems kinda sci-fi-y. so like. what is the holy spirit?
Being an atheist, the Holy Spirit for me simply represents any gathering of humans in which we decide collectively to believe that love for one another (for its own sake) is good.
