you are obviously wrong.. that there is an error in Quran...
Rather you yourself don't know that Trinity changed through history... Orignally, It was a concept never ever taught by Jesus(peace be upon him).. that's why although the church teaches you your salvation lies in it (means its a very imp concept), you don't find Jesus talking about it and emphasizing it again and agian in the bible... wht you do find him saying whn asked about the MOST imp commandment is: ""The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one." {Mark 12:29}
When it did get into christianity, trnity looked like this:
god as father
god as son (jesus)
god as Mother (Mary)
[I find it absolutely abhorent to write this false concept of trinity]
later mary was removed from this picture (but they still had regard for her)... in trinity now followed mary is not included anymore rather they replaced her with the holy spirit(angel gebrael).
So Quran rightly addresses the trinity followed back then...
here is proof that earlier christians didn't look at the Holy spirit as god:
Let us now look at the situation about the year 360 CE. In her book 'A History of God', Karen Armstrong, a noted British scholar of religion, describes Christian beliefs regarding the Holy Spirit during the fourth Christian century. It should be noted that the Gregory of Nazianzus quoted in this passage lived from 329-391 CE, so he was probably writing in the year 360 or later:
"The Cappadocians were also anxious to develop the notion of the Holy Spirit, which they felt had been dealt with very perfunctorily at Nicaea: 'And we believe in the Holy Spirit' seemed to have been added to Athanasius's creed almost as an afterthought. People were confused about the Holy Spirit. Was it simply a synonym for God or was it something more? 'Some have conceived [the Spirit] as an activity,' noted Gregory of Nazianzus, 'some as a creature, some as God, and some have been uncertain what to call him'" (p. 115).
From this, it does not sound like the doctrine of the Holy Spirit in the Trinity had been developed at all until that time! Armstrong goes on to describe how the Cappadocians (Gregory of Nazianzus was one of them, from Cappadocia in what is now Turkey) studied the Bible, decided that the Holy Spirit must be divine and from this worked out the doctrine of the Trinity that is familiar today.

Now my Question:
Few miracles Of Quran
Big Bang
When describing the creation of the "heavens and the earth," the Qur'an states the theory of the "Big Bang" explosion at the start of it . the Qur'an says that "the heavens and the earth were joined together as one unit, before they were aparted:
Quran (21:30) {Have not those who disbelieve see that the heavens and the earth were joined together as one united piece, then We cloved them asunder} [cloved them asunder means separated them].
and this was 1400 years before the discovery of the big bang theory.
Expansion of Universe
this amazing theory was discovered in the 20th century that the universe is continuing to expand after the big bang explosion,,
this idea ; that the universe is continuing to expand. was mentioned in quran 1430 years ago : {and The heavens, We have built them with power. And verily, We are still expanding it} quran (51:47).
can you tell me how a 1400 yr old book that according to you is written by muhammad has info that science just discovered a few decades ago....???? Is it not more rational to think that GOD gave this book..?
