Debates among Christians about the Trinity are not new. When the Arians controlled the Christian Church, the Trinity was considered apostate.

Eventually, the Arians lost control of the Church, and Trinitarians declared the Arians to be the apostates.

Since Christians cannot agree to how many books are in the Bible, it's not surprising that they also disagree about the Trinity.

Today, Arians, Unitarians, and several American non-trinitarian sects are a minority among the Christian community.

One more time, I'm not here to defend the quirky theology of religions not in communion with the Roman Catholic Church.

I have posted the official Catholic position, and I stand by it: both Christians and Muslims worship the same God.

If you want to argue theological quirks, you can go to the religion forum on this website. There are plenty of interesting threads there.

I was not debating the "trinity." I was presenting the diety of Christ as an insurmountable obstacle to equating Muslim "Allah" and God the Bible.

Another diversion. Clearly the Protestant and Catholic Bibles both have the Gospel of John which I mentioned.

Maybe a good burning is in order.

As a protestant I prefer a careful examination of scripture. Sola scriptura.

It is intellectually dishonest to prompt a discussion and then bale in this fashion.
