No you need to be one person, just like God.

Yes, I can help you understand God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Ghost are 3 separate persons. Now everything makes sense, such as Christ talking to his Father, the Holy Ghost bearing witness of the Father and the son, and even Christ praying that his disciples would be one with him even as he is one with the Father (in thoughts and actions, not the same person or substance)

A father can be a son and a son can be a father, but they are NEVER the same person. It really is not hard to understand. Genesis "Let US create man in OUR image"

Trinity is like water...Water can be solid, liquid, and gases. They are all the same, yet different. The trinity is also kind of like Time, Space and Matter in creation. You need all three. If you didn't have time when would create? If you didn't have matter, what would you create? If you didn't have Spare, where would you create? See they all need eachother to exsist. Now about being godlike. You can never be God, but you can try to immitate Jesus Christ. God tells Christians in the Bible to be immitator of Jesus. That doesn't mean to be god, but to try to be like God. Christians need to try to be merciful, kind, and forgiving like God.

the christians picked up the trinidadian dogma from the greeks.
a good book to read to answer a lot of your questions of christain dogma would be "ROOTS OF CHRISTIANITY"
by Michael Walsh

the dogmatic cult of christianity also got a lot of it's back ground from the mani & marcion religions..

just remember the christian religion is a VERY VERY strong cult..

Does that mean Sybil was more godlike than the rest of us?

You have a body, a mind, and a spirit. All are you.

Perhaps an oversimplification, but I think it shows the point.
