Thanks for your reply.

No gotcha. Usually when someone “recognizes the divinity of Christ” it means they believe He is God. So clarification is needed to distinguish.

Those who say they don’t believe Jesus to be divine usually mean He is not God. So, again, it’s a different theology. I think it would be a common agreement among Protestants and Catholics that this wouldn’t be considered “Christian” theology.

“God and the Holy Spirit are one” - without Jesus - is certainly nonTrinitarian. Dunno if there is a Dinitarianism. :)

Anyway your differences with Christianity - speaking here of Protestantism and Catholicism - are great, all the way down to the nature of Christ.

What is perplexing is with such a great disagreement with Christianity on its core belief, why bother with differences on sola scriptura, the Assumption and other, taken in perspective, minor points?

Maybe I am an "Old Christian", one who existed prior to the time the "organization" forced belief in the Trinity as a requirement for Christianity.

Maybe that's why I am a Biblical Unitarian. I do not insist it is necessary for each person to interpret Scripture exactly the same as I do.

You see, in my naivete I believe God has made room for all uf us.
