Christian Trinity – The Big Story 🌟
Your classic triune structure:
- Father: The omnipotent, old-man figure, distant but ‘sound’ advice-giving parent sort.
- Son: The more relatable savior-guy, tends to wear sandals.
- Holy Spirit: The wispy, ever-present ethereal being (mythical as a unicorn but very much divine).
Christian Science Incantation 🧙♂️
No boring words like ‘Father’ or ‘Son’ here—it’s all about:
- Life: Vibrant, motorcycles-revving energy.
- Truth: That unveiled backstage pass.
- Love: The universal glue. “My heart just ‘loved’ your stunts" - God probably.
Islam’s and Jehova’s Witnesses’ Rebuffing Reactions❗

- Jehovah’s Witnesses: Sounds too pagan. Perhaps they think it came from a sci-fi fantasy.
LDS (Mormon Version) 🧐
Mom, Dad, and Junior—like, real cool families with separate bodies wielding divine aspirations.
Roman Catholicism: Original Recipe 🍗
Traditionalist and reverent. Like Grandma’s Thanksgiving turkey—unchanged and always revered.
