If religion had one rule only and that rule was to be kind to each other and people actually behaved in ACCORDANCE TO THAT ONE RULE, there would be no need for anyone to invite you out of the club from which you were raised. There would be no need for civil law for that matter but alas people misbehave in contrast or opposition to some other culture or belief system.

My belief in a trinity is that 1/3 don't care or want to be involved, 1/3 want their religion or club to rule and 1/3 want a fair organization to rum things fairly by a constitution that is fair to everybody.

When one of those thirds get busy we could get a Hitler or a State sponsored religious supreme ruler. The 1/3 that doesn't care won't get involved until the suffering is unbearable.

The third that doesn't care keeps the anal retentive types and the "God said" types in balance but only after things get really bad.

So, lets toast the uncaring apathetic, the we don't give a shits, and the its not my job types. For it is they that order society and civilization.
