Just read pic related. Fantastic book, btw. But here's a thought I had after reading it. Christianity claims the Father, Son, and holy spirit are equally God but separate persons. They are equal because they share the same essence of being God. However each has a personality that is not encompassed by the others. Therefore the one with the most impressive properties is the greatest God.

For one to be the greatest God, there would need to be a plurality of Gods and as you just said there is only one God, which has distinct personalities who all share in its essence.

It's called a mystery for a reason you dumb fedora tippers. It goes beyond our capacity to reason.

Wittgenstein wouldn't really think discussing God is worthwhile since nothing objective about it can be said, i.e. it's nonsensical.

At least, that's what I remember from reading Tractatus years ago. Could be wrong.

Wittgenstein was an agnostic theist and a Kierkegaard fanboy. He absolutely would not have seen any part of Christianity as being "btfo" by his philosophy.

Yeah, I wouldn't disagree, just that objective discussion about God isn't something he'd partake in.
