Hbah! That's a Trinity? Rather more like the Romano-Greek triple earth goddess, or indeed the hideous number of triple-aspected Celtic deities, are we going to count those as Trinities?

Glorantha goes a bit far by making the earth one a tri-trinity, mind you.

On the other hand, why does a Trinity have to be "necessary" in order to amuse ourselves by kicking the idea around? Is someone out there trying to prove a "This is True for All Sects, in all One True Gloranthas" type argument, one way or t'other?

Shouldn't we blame the "Thou shalt not Tap" commandment?
