With all the recent discussions about spirituality, I want to raise a discussion about what you all believe or think in relation to the Holy Spirit.

I know there is debate in relation to the Holy Trinity.. that is that the Father (God), the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit is either one in the same or three seperate identies. Myself, I think they are all seperate.. but then this makes me wonder about the nature of the Holy Spirit. Is it neutral or does it carry a certain God-like aspect?

I often wonder and think that it is a neutral force that explains life - that brings everything together for me. The reason there are people that believe we are all one, or are of the one higher consciousness - and everything living is a part of that consciousness. In the religious sense I see it as a tool that God can use or did use for creation, and he would probably be the only one that would know how to use this and understand the true nature of it. The Bible however also tells of Satan having reign or control over the earth for a period of time.. would he also use this force for his manipulations.. pull on the strings so to speak.

Can I ask you all your views and thoughts on this?
