Don,
You refer to an article on Wikipedia to imply
that the Trinity came out of Hellenistic thought.

I took a look at your link. Do you realize it
was largely written/edited by an architect and
fiction writer?

Here’s your guy...

the Trinity came out of Hellenistic thought.

The Greek notions about God and "The One", not Obama, and modern christians' views about the Trinity are rather similiar. It does not prove that the Trinity came from the Greeks, but the possibility is certainly something worth looking into.
