It’s a truly absurd description if it refers to a human being. Yes, we definitely agree on that. (And by “we,” I mean you and me, not Becker and me.)
You’re trying to ascribe the description of something holy to human beings. That is laughable in the extreme.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
Fo ...[text shortened]... h, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.“
(Isaiah 55:8-9)
As people are wont to do, over time they deified Jesus and mysticized the spirit of truth thus painting themselves into a theological corner. Instead of humbly admitting it to themselves, they created a nonsensical explanation that was dubbed the Trinity.
God's thought's may be His thoughts, but the Trinity is the product of the thoughts of man.

Each of the three persons possesses the same eternal and infinite nature; thus, they are the one, true Romansfetchbecker in essence or nature. Yet, they are truly distinct in their relations to each other.
I did make earlier comparison to an 'Unholy Trinity.' It wasn't well received.
Originally posted by @thinkofoneUnfortunately, you’re quite in error on this. The Trinity is indeed Biblical and that is not just the view of Jesus Christ’s disciples and other followers but of Jesus Christ Himself.

Just once will suffice.

Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeThe word “Trinity” does not appear, but it’s clear from both the Old Testament and New Testament that Jesus Christ was God in the flesh. And the deity of the Holy Spirit also is revealed in both the Old Testament and New Testament.

That's the real question.

That’s got to be the most used tool in your trolling toolbox. It’s like a carpenter’s hammer.

Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeSure. Jesus Christ, while He was on earth, was both fully God and fully man. And Jesus, as both God and man, was “a little lower than the angels.”
Does that include Mark 10:18
'Why do you call me good? No one is good, except God alone.'
“But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.“
(Hebrews 2:9-10)
It’s also worth noting that Jesus placed Himself subject to His Father’s will; something He did because He was both God and man.
But if you read Biblical commentaries on that verse, you’ll find an alternative explanation; that Jesus was engaging in a rhetorical device in response to a young ruler’s question.

Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-dukeThe “rhetorical device” cited in some Biblical commentaries is not convincing to me. I think what I posted earlier and the Hebrews’ verses are where the answer to your question is found.
When Jesus cried out to God on the cross, was that also a rhetorical device?
