The idea of three separate beings does not fit the historic mono-theism of the current version of the Old Testament. (Deut.6:4:Isa.43:10) Try as i might i cannot see the 2nd person in the Godhead as claiming to be anything in the Old Testament , but what would make himself the very same Father he prayed to. Paul in 1 Cor. 8:5,6 merely expands upon the one God concept to treat the one God the Father and one Lord Jesus as the same Old Testament God.

No, but it fits very well with ancient Jewish knowledge.
I've done some looking up on Trinitarianism. Probably not enough, but it still doesn't fit. There's no reason for God to exist in three personalities or consciousnesses like that. There just isn't.
It's nice to think about, and it's one way to try and reconcile Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, but it doesn't make sense. I'm a pretty good abstract thinker... but it still doesn't fit. It seems more like a concept designed to please more people, and to keep them from asking too many questions (back in the day, anyway.)
