Ok, I know I can count on you guys for this...

My brother-in-law is attending a Oneness Pentacostal church and thinks the only difference between "Trinity" and "Just Jesus" is the wording. He doesn't understand the Tradition, Scripture, meaning, or impact of this all important doctrine.

My question is this: what is your single best web-link on this subject? I'm talking the best you've ever read; quick, efficient, and to the point. He is a software engineer so he is all about time, efficiency, and logic. No fluff, no build-up. I think if I can get him to read one solid article (or if there's something more entertaining like a flash presentation or something) and it makes sense and he see's the benefit, he will believe.

--[url="http://www.catholic.com/thisrock/2001/0101sbs.asp"]How to Defend the Trinity[/url]

Basic Catholic apologetics, plain and simple, may be all you need.

Something technical to add weight to the link Phatty provided [url="http://www.ewtn.com/library/Theology/SIPLIGHT.HTM"]The Holy Trinity; St Thomas Aquinas.[/url] Also St Gregory of Nyssa's [url="http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/2905.htm"]On "Not Three Gods"[/url] offers an argument based in both scripture and philosophy from a slightly different perspective. I'm sure having seen the links for yourself you will be able to decide which is more apt in this instance.

Ok, I gave him the links (Aquinas and Pillar of Fire & Truth). Now we just have to pray.

Thanks guys!
