Triune is Simple; Trinity is Beautiful

As a Mormon, I was always taught (and I myself taught to others) that the Trinity was almost a  comical notion. For example, I am old enough to remember when the temple ceremony included a character (caricature, rather) of the traditional Christian preacher who espoused this pernicious doctrine.  Jeffrey Holland said in a recent conference address, "that such a formulation for divinity is truly incomprehensible."

I don't why it is hard to comprehend, or at least acknowledge.  The LDS seem to have no problem understanding eternity but I find that hard to get my mind around it.  Eternity is not just a really, really, really long time.  It is timeless.  It doesn't start; it doesn't end.  Even LDS scriptures states "the Lord's course is one eternal round" (D&C 3:2)  I find that harder to fathom than the simple statements about the triune God.  I believe in eternity, but I can't picture it.  Why should the Trinity be different if the Word of God supports it?

Now, I realize there are some complex statements about and attempts to define the Trinity.  But I think they make the same mistake as those who dismiss it.

This is the Trinity.  Not complex.  Not complicated.  But greater than anything we can comprehend.
