My mother was my father's wife, my brother's mother, and my kids' grandmother. Mother, wife, grandmother, all three are very different things, yet she was always all three, at the same time.
Arguing that Christianity is "polytheistic" is basically saying "I don't know what Christianity teaches".
Polytheism would be something like the Manichaens, who beleived that the God of the Old Testament was the God of "matter" (and that matter was evil), and that Jesus was the God of the spirit, two very different Gods with completely different theologies. That's not what Christianity teaches, at all.
