Listen "Theological Stockholm Syndrome: How the Trinity Became Christianity’s Deep State Doctrine"
Episode Synopsis
Questioning the Trinity is like trying to cancel a gym membership—taxing, frustrating, and somehow you end up in worse shape. But why is there such a visceral reaction to even questioning it? In this video, I break down Theological Stockholm Syndrome—how centuries of persecution, dogma, and intellectual investment make the Trinity untouchable for many Christians.Inspired by a video from Ruslan (a rich man's Mike Winger), I explore:🔥 How the Trinity became an untouchable doctrine🔥 The historical and political consequences of rejecting it🔥 Why people cling to it despite its contradictions🔥The Nicene Creeds were the original "speech codes"—reject them, and you were not just wrong; you were dangerous.🔥 Ancient Thought Crimes: In the Roman Empire, the Nicene Trinity became the state-approved theology—rejecting it wasn’t just heresy; it was sedition.🔥 How Church authorities maintained power by making the Trinity a loyalty test.🔥 The Trinity as a Sunk-Cost Ideology that requires more commitment, not re-evaluation.Along the way, I’ll highlight some of the absurd things Ruslan says, using his own words to illustrate the sunk cost fallacy at play.If you've ever wondered why Trinitarians react like you just insulted their life savings—well, in a way, you did.👀 Watch my breakdown of why Catholics avoid Mormon apologists: https://youtu.be/AQ5ff5n6e9k 👀 See my response to Wes Huff on Joe Rogan: https://youtu.be/sn1dtiJLwEw📜 Historical Persecution for Rejecting the Trinity:Michael Servetus: Burned at the stake in 1553 for questioning itThomas Aikenhead: Hanged in 1697 for blasphemyJoseph Priestley: His church was burned down in 1791 for being Unitarian👀 Are the Nicene Creeds just Christianity’s version of the Mormon Gold Plates if they were enforced by FIat?Let’s discuss in the comments.🚀 Subscribe for more deep dives into church history, theology, and bad arguments dressed as doctrine.🎧 Prefer audio?🔹 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6wmtsNQCl0ToLeSkt6j4hs?si=439a1219b7924c9a 🔹 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/halestorm/id1438201012 📲Follow me on: YouTube only.
