No polytheism says there is more than one God.
Even Catholics say there is only one God. But at the same time we have been given three distinct deities identified as that one God. That simply means God is a title and not a name. As in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
That is how three indivisuals can be only one God.
If its a title wouldn't it be Father the God, Son the God, and Holy Spirit the God?
