Tritheism is heresy and I will not agree to hold hands with people who believe that. Well I saw "________" as mentioned above is heretical. Teh well you are not praying to X and not enough of Z and should more to Y is HERESY! No, I won't hold them with the same esteem as I do others.

I find that sort of oddness to be a rarity. And that comes with fellowship with many Trinitarians who identify with a creed, more than anything else. Indeed, there is a triune mystery to his revelation. I reject tritheism as well, but even those who we say are tritheists will, with perplexity on their face say, "but He is also one." They don't understand perfectly His godhead. Beautiful thing is, while I think I have it down a little better than they do, I really don't fully understand it either. So I get the particulars that we have in scripture and build from there.
I'll hold hands with them.
