No, Mr. Lund, you do NOT "get it". They are NOT "three Gods", they are "TOGETHER, ONE God, eternally existing as three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit".
Again, you mischaracterize what Christians believe. You only show that you simply do not understand the nature of the Divine Trinity.
You also mischaracterize Satan, who is in no way a "god" of any kind. He is a CREATED being, an Angel, who was created by God, and who will eventually be cast into the Lake of Fire along with the angels who rebelled along with him, as well as all human beings who follow them.
Orthodox Christianity teaches that there is only ONE God, eternally existing in three Persons, the Father, the Son (Who became "flesh"), and the Holy Spirit, and these Two proceed from the Father from Eternity, and Together, these Three have a SINGLE nature and substance, that of "God". Ergo, ONE God, not THREE.
Ok then; they are three different aspects or facets of the same god - kind of like in some directions of Buddhism or Hinduism. May I buttume Satan is also just another aspect of this...
