To many Christians the doctrine Trinity is perplexing, irrelevant and best left alone. For practical purposes they solve the problem in one of two ways. [One way is to] postpone thinking about it for as long as possible. [The other way] is to practice tritheism in all but name. Thus, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are worshiped as three separate deities and assigned separate functions. Such a practice stop short of fully fledged tritheism by making the proviso that the deities are all of the same divine substance, and are thus ultimately one.
One is reminded of the song “people who need people are the luckiest people in the world...” not even God can be a person without other persons.
