We should stop pandering to this stupid dog Variable who spouts out absolute nonsense.

Here, I will prove that many Christians don't get it.
"In this chapter, you explore who Christians believe God is and what he's like. Christianity says that God is a Trinity--one God expressed in three beings. That's kind of confusing...Although the issue is a mind bender, Christians have practical reasons for why the Trinity is fundamental to their faith."

(Richard Wagner [Christian speaker], Christianity for Dummies, p. 123-131)
"Although a debated issue during Christianity's early history, the prevailing view became that God exists in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. According to this doctrine, which is called the Trinity, these are not three gods, but one God revealing Himself in three persons. Sound confusing? Don't worry, you're not alone. Even those who first formulated the doctrine of the Trinity called it a 'mystery.'"
(Jeffrey Geoghegan, PhD [Assistant Prof. of Biblical Theology]; Michael Homan, PhD [Assistant Prof. of Biblical Studies], The Bible For Dummies, p.258)
In fact, so many Christians are "confused" about this topic, that Christians run many websites and seminars trying to "un-confuse" said Christians.

Go study the history of the Trinity and you will find how difficult it was for the early followers of Jesus [as] to accept this nonsensical position.

Regardless of how much Variable barks, the truth is that thousands of people will continue to convert to Islam because they can't understand the concept of Trinity. He can continue his barking.
The only one barking here is you.

Tell me what I said here or in any other thread that makes me a bigot? Sounds like I hit a nerve... probably doing something right.

Anyway, sure thousands of ex-Christians leave because they don't understand the Trinity. Thousands of Muslims leave Islam because they don't understand parts of it... does that have any impact on the tenets of Islam. I'm sorry to hear that they don't get it... again, there's not a lot to get. I've heard many Muslims say "Islam isn't difficult to understand, people just make it difficult" - same case here I guess.
