“We use metaphors like this because we need some way to describe something that is essentially indescribable. But not all metaphors are created equal, folks. Sometimes we freeze metaphors, and keep them for so long so that they become literal. That’s why we get one old guy with a beard, one young guy with a beard, and a bird. And that’s supposed to be the Holy Trinity. Two white guys and a bird.”
— my Theology Professor, on describing God.
