You're right.  I was taught that the bible was the word of God.  BUt 
believe it or not, I don't put much stock in it as the sole source of 
religious information.  I'm not saying that I don't believe in the Trinity 
because it isn't mentioned directly in the Bible.  What I'm saying is that 
those who do believe in the Trinity claim to do so because of Biblical 
evidence.  That evidence, IMO has too many holes in it for me to accept it 
as true.  I have never heard anyone say "I believe in the Trinity because 
I had an experience one that lead me to feel this way."  I hear all the 
time about peoplewho had life-changing experiences to do with God, Jesus, 
and the Holy Spirit--separately.  I just think that we've accepted as a 
part of our belief system something that has no real foundation for 
belief.
