A Trinitarian Notion: The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing But The Truth

I wound up in a teeny-tiny, itty-bitty, eensy-weensy little trial yesterday that ended in a just result.  It was classic "courtroom, classroom, theater, church" paradigm-shifting in action.

My opening question to the witness for the prosecution was a not-so-subtle reminder of their oath.  "Moments ago, you stuck your hand in the air and you swore to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth as you shall answer unto God, is that correct?"

"Yes," he says.

"Please explain to the court your understanding of the difference between the three."
