Makeup and floppy shoes aside :), I understand what you're saying and after
a bit more reading I think I might be inclined to agree (for now). If
Quality is not trinitarian then this might be a fairy path that I'm heading
down. Another problem that I seem to have is distilling something useful
out of any Christian literature that I read. It's so heavily bogged down in
dogmatic theology (suprise, suprise) that it's really difficult to get into.
So unless I come up with something more useful than the ideas that I had
before, I'm just going to drop this for other more interesting pursuits.

What are you reading?
Stanley and Dobson?
Bart and Bultman?
LaHaye?
Funk?
There are a lot of similarities between Christianity and Buddhism.
For example:
Christians say you should be born again.
Buddhist cultivate the beginners mind.
Both are attempts infuse dynamic quality.
Buddhists say that to free yourself from fear, you must free yourself from
desire.
Christians say you will have nothing to fear if you put your trust in God's
will.
The MoQ says fear is scarily dynamic and you need something static to get
you through the night.
I just said I didn't see much correspondence in the two Trinities.
I await word on whether Trinitarians of MoQ will hence forth be
excommunicated.
