Found this explanition of the trinity. Quote:
Hinduism has a trinity. It is
1) brahma =creation
2) vishnu= preservation
3) shiva = destruction
Brahma is the supreme God and one who created the universe and mankind in Hinduism. Vishnu overseas life and Shiva is the end of life....the three represent the cycle of life. Beginning duration and end...in its totality.
The catholic church and some other christians have a trinity too:
God
Son (jesus)
and the holy ghost
Could the Christians have drawn from Hindu wisdom with the creation of the trinity?
God created
the holy ghost is a spirt like a soul so it preserves
and jesus who will come back as prophetized in revelations as the destroyer...or one who will return at the end of the world?
| Egad! 
Oh I see, we just borrowed from Hinduism (sarcasm). Incredible what people can cook up!
