The Trinity is unconstitutional

Abstract:
Some marble, appropriately worked, comes to constitute a status: constitution is the relation between the resulting statue and the marble it is made of. Some recent authors use the concept of constitution to explicate or at least provide an analogy for the doctrine of the Trinity. I argue that this won’t do, because there is no viable candidate for the role the marble plays in the statue’s case.
