		<description>Well, mistersquid, I have to disagree with you on this one.  Of course, the most frequent association to "trinity" is christian but the word does not belong exclusively to the domain of religion.  I could have used any of the terms you suggest; I could have even tried "triangular," triadic," and, hell, even "Oedipal!"

Terminological quibbles aside, I do think there is something quasi "religious" to the flow of the text.  Take, for instance, the bifurcations either production or representation, either flow or stagnation, either schizoanalysis or psychoanalysis.  There's been a fair bit written and said about the unsettling ways in which D &#38; G deploy these polarities; but, try as we might, the line in the sand is presumably drawn and with it we are confronted with an exclusionary choice: either with &lt;em&gt;Anti-Oedipus&lt;/em&gt; or against it.  That's the logic that most readers have followed and that's the (religious) trap I have been trying to avoid.</description>

		<description>This post puts forward a few very provocative theses, especially the attempt to make &lt;i&gt;Anti-Oedipus&lt;/i&gt; foundational to psychoanalytic thinking. (I think your position is absolutely correct.) I also think it puts forward, perhaps unintentionally, another idea which doesn't sit so well with me.

In particular, the word "Trinitarian" communicates a strong religious bias which is not characteristic of the D &#38; G I know. There are other words to describe tripartite structures, namely "tripartite." Even "triumvirate" seems less biased but accurate.</description>
