135. From the Creed of Athanasius it is allowable to say that the three Gods are one God by unition. That they are three is a matter of thought, that they are one is a matter of speech. Can one be prohibited from thus speaking? How would the Mohammedans, Jews, Gentiles feel towards such an expression? Would they not say that such people are crazy?
