[Polycarp]

Once a Christian has the doctrine of the Trinity, Scripture can be found to support it, but no verse or combination of verses in Scripture tells us that there is one God in Three Persons, each Person wholly and entirely God, all co-equal, co-eternal, and possessing the divine nature totally unto Himself, the Godhead having but one divine intellect and one divine will.

This definition came solely from the RCC, it is not the "plain sense of scripture" as scripture seems contradictory. Forget the LDS. Look at the arguments of the Aryan heresy.

Scripture is not self explanatory regarding the Trinity.

It demands an authoritative interpreter.

The reformers rejected that authoritative interpreter.

Thus the LDS doctrine is a direct outgrowth of 1)rejection of the authoritative interpreter as well as 2) sola scriptura, both being the primary "fruits" of the reformation.

***Forget the LDS***
Gladly.

***Look at the arguments of the Aryan heresy.***
Arian or Aryan.
I presume you meant Arius who said there was a time when Jesus was not, i.e. He is not eternal nor is He deity (like the JWs today) which is contradicted by many scriptures. (just preached on "I am the Alpha" the eternality and Deity of Jesus. I'll send you a copy if you like.)
