If you don't like it, start your own religion
Presbyterians to try variations on Trinity:
Okay, I'm fairly nonsexist, but I have my limits. And one of them is when you start messing around with two thousand years of Christian doctrine like this.
Sheesh. No wonder the evangelicals are kicking your ass."Compassionate mother, beloved child and lifegiving womb"
"Rainbow of Promise, Ark of Salvation and Dove of Peace"
"Speaker, Word and Breath"
"Giver, Gift, and Giving"
"Lover, Beloved and Love that binds together Lover and Beloved"
"Rock, Cornerstone, and Temple"

Earth, wind, and fire.
Someone already used the "Rock, Paper, Scissors" reference, but since it wasn't used here, I'll gladly steal it.
Funny, the Mobile paper listed different examples of the alternate terminologies. We did read the womb one which I thought was just nonsense (so what, now a health care professional might refer to the Holy Ghost as "functional uterus"?)
But there was one that I actually thought had some merit: "Creator, Savior, Sanctifier." Nice rhythm, the words themselves provoke a little thought but don't bring your sense of peaceful meditation to a crashing halt the way "Rainbow of Promise" does.
