The fact that the common man doesnt understand the Holy Trinity is a reason why its true and that all the other faiths are man made.

Uhm.... the 'Common man' doesn't understand quantum mechanics either, so that's what makes quantum mechanics true?

I think not.

Well, THAT’S a startling display of stupid.

Things can be said to ne true (comports with reality), when they can be demonstrated to be true.

Basing what is considered truth on what the 'common man doesn't understand' is a ridiculous metric. It is so flawed, it is not even wrong. It is incoherent.

Let me test your method for determining truth:

The fact that the common man doesn't understand the Trimūrti of Hindu gods is a reason why it is true and all other faiths besides Hinduism are man made.

Are you ready to convert now?

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

You should realize that makes no sense.  It is entirely without logical merit.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
