Particle man, particle man
Doing the things a particle can
What's he like? It's not important
Particle man

Particle man: science

Triangle man: religion/Christianity (the Trinity)

Universe man: Whatever controls the universe (different from religion because religion is the belief, "universe man" is the actual controller of the universe, be that God or just the universe itself)

Person man: Mankind.

Triangle man hates Particle man --- that is, Religion hates Science. And no matter how much they "fight," Religion always wins out (there is no way to disprove a belief).

Universe Man is kind to smaller man (any man, really).

Person man is depressing --- lives his life in a garbage can --- and is further degraded by losing to Triangle man (Religion).
