Answering a Common Example of Trinitarian Special Pleading

Often, Trinitarian apologists, in an effort to answer objections relating to the logical impossibility and irrationality of their theology with a (lame) response similar to the following:

"The Trinitarian God, as an infinite, omnipresent being, can do [insert logical impossibility]"

One online critic of the Trinity wrote this in response to this silly "answer"; I thought it was too good not to share:

It’s the same as saying, I know the idea that ball lightning is caused by ghosts makes no sense to you, but that’s only because you’re human. Humans cannot understand supernatural phenomena. Special pleading par excellence!
