The best thing comes in Three.

JOKE-OGRAPHY:

In Christianity, we say we have one God revealed in three Persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit. They are distinct in their relationship to each other: the Father generates, the Son is begotten, and the Holy Spirit proceeds. Yet They all fully embody the same divine nature and will. The Trinity is the central mystery of Christianity, which proclaims that Jesus is fully God and fully man and came to marry our human nature to His divine one, inviting us into the eternal reality of God through mutual love.

In this cartoon, a child articulates the Trinity according to her limited understanding by relating each divine Person to one of the priests in her local parish. She thinks of God as an old man, as depicted in art like "The Creation of Adam" by Michelangelo, and compares Him to the oldest priest. She thinks of Jesus as a kindly teacher, as depicted in many child-focused Bible studies, and relates Him to her favorite priest. And since education about the role and power of the Holy Spirit is often lacking or puts less focus on Him than on the creator Father or savior Son, she thinks of the Holy Spirit as a tiny and unimpressive dove, and compares Him to the youngest and least impressive priest, saying he's "small and doesn't do a lot." The young priest is shocked at this harsh assessment. Meanwhile, in Heaven, the Holy Spirit is similarly mortified by the naive critique, which almost causes Jesus to fall over laughing.
