No, I really am asking, not taking shots. If a theoretical person (whoever this may be) believes in the Trinity and they also believe in ID, how would that work? I ask because the way I manage my belief system is by hashing things against one another to find discrepancies, which in turn indicate a resolution is required in order to avoid cognitive dissonance.

I guarantee there are forces at work that it is literally impossible for me to ever understand, but, as far as my personal understanding goes, I want to make sure I at least agree with myself.
