I wanted to read their logic again.
However I find your use of the ice cream to be interesting.
John 1:2 states the same was in the begining with God. While the previous verse establishes the Son of God as indeed God, the 2nd verse establishes a distinction and separation.
To refer to the Neapolitan ice cream, Vanilla, Strawberry and Chocolate are indeed ice cream. Yet the Vanilla is not the Strawberry and etc. This is a more accurate description of God than the Vanilla-Chocolate Swirl.
First of all, there is only one flavor of ice cream-- Vanilla. The swirls are not swirls of multiple flavors, but only one other flavor-- Chocolate. This is not an accurate representation of the God at all.
