I am no longer a Christian (I was raised Catholic), but I watched the Warner video and it didn't sound too theologically off to me.  If I remember my trinitarian theology correctly, it claims that there are three persons (persona = personality or mask) in one substance (ousia).  The substance is Godhood or Divinity and the three persona are father, son and holy spirit.  Insofar as these beings are differentiable, and the Christian Bible clearly claims they are (Jesus prays to the father and says that after he has risen, the father will send "another," the Peraclete), then in that sense one can claim that there are three "beings" there, but that they are, as Warner put it, "connected...in spirit."  Besides, if I'm not mistaken, he was giving his explanation to kids, not an audience at Union Theological Seminary, so some casual language is expectable.
