The "soul" stuff

And that the trinity is a leftover of that pantheon, shoehorned into monotheism, when it really isn't.

There was no Trinity in the Old Testament, though. That thing came later as a result of trying to reconcile internal contradictions concerning the nature of God within the New Testament.

The trinity was active on earth throughout the old testament. The Son appeared a number of times as "the angel of the lord" and the Holy Spirit was active in the very first chapter of the bible during the creation of the world.

Sounds like you're a very deep person. Just kick back and take another slug of vodka. Everything will be okay.
