do you also get this transformers-like mental image where the Father, Son and Holy Ghost merge to combine Mecha-Christinator? Or is that just a result of watching too much TV when I was younger?

Remember "Dark Crystal"? At the end of the movie the two little guys (the evil and the good guys) merged to make one guy that was all light and looked kind of like a god. I dunno, but I kinda think of that. I'm an atheist, but I can picture it too.

It makes about as much sense. Consider this: If your transformer thingy had been a pagan belief long after the apostles death, the church would be singing the transformer theme song by now in corale.
They did it to get pagans to join the church and get their money and property. That church is just what you would expect from their father, Satan. They had left the teachings of the Bible decades before then.

I don't really understand the illustration you present to explain the Trinity. Go to this website: www.amazingfacts.org. Click on on-line bible library and type the word trinity. There is a little booklet there that you can read for free. I believe it gives illustrations and go indebt on the subject. Hope this help!

No, I have never thought of it that way before. I just think of the Trinity as like a body. You have your arms, legs, and head. Each one has a specific function but can't be seen as any less of the body then any of the other parts.

there is no trinity
it is a lie
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
1Tim 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh

The only time I talk about the trinity is to explain that it is a myth not supported by scripture.

The trinity consist of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost as three separate personages united as one in purpose, not being. They are separate and distinct individual beings. But what makes them one is their unity of purpose and love. Jesus said "I and my Father are one." Jesus later prayed to God the Father concerning his followers that "...they may be one, as we are...That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:" (John 17:11,21,22.) So you see the impossibility of this oneness meaning oneness of body... or else you must assume that all Christians will mutate into a single bodily entity with Christ and the Father... and how sick would that be? No. The unity is a oneness of PURPOSE and LOVE.

I get no mental image; the concept is void.
