h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I see that you are editing my Dante Alighieri article, and you're doing a beautiful job, but there's one little thing that I wish you would fix. In the section about the Divine Comedy you changed "Father, Son, and Holy Spirit" to "God, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." This is a misunderstanding of the Roman Catholic Church's interpretation of the Trinity. Catholics, like Dante and myself, believe that God is three persons in one, the father (old bearded dude who doesn't leave home much), the son (that guy with the hippie haircut who got nailed to a cross), and the holy spirit (hmm, this one's a bit harder to describe). They are all part of the one and only God, not seperate entities, so replacing "Father" with "God" doesn't really work in this situation.

I realize this may not seem like a very big deal, but there's a lot of people who have some weird ideas about Catholics, and this will likely confuse them more. I don't know how the editing process works; maybe it's too late, but if it's not, I'd appreciate it if you just changed that real quick. And I'm not trying to preach to you or anything; I just thought it would be best for the Guide if we could correct things like that before they're approved. Thanks, and sorry to be a bother.

Oops, I agree with you totally, and I can't remember why I changed it now!
I can't change it back myself now, but I'll send a note to somebody who can; so don't be worried if it doesn't change immediately.
Great article by the way , sorry about the mistake!

No problem, and thanks for the compliment!
