it contradicts the idea of simple/pure monotheism. claiming a singularity of essense with multiple manifestations/faces/persons works, but as far as I understand it that's modalism and not the normative Christian view

not really, since I'm saying that divine simplicity by definition does not allow for these sorts of distinctions - being and person in this case being absolutely One and indistinguishable
-
Again, really depends on what is meant by the "divine" in "divine simplicity". If by it "Being" is meant, it is undoubtedly true, if by it "Person" is meant, it is debatable.
-
once again, my point is that the idea that these concepts point to the same thing wrt the divine follows directly from divine simplicity

Afraid I'm out of arguments, will come back when I've got some more
-
what's your religion btw, just out of curiosity
-
Traditionalist metaphysics, Christian practice
