One might call himself a Christian while maintaining a non-Trinitarian stance, but it is utterly impossible to be a Christian unless you can, in one form or another, be able to affirm the following:

And in the Spirit, the holy, the lordly and life-giving one, proceeding forth from the Father, co-worshipped and co-glorified with Father and Son, the one who spoke through the prophets; in one, holy, catholic and apostolic church. We confess one baptism for the forgiving of sins. We look forward to a resurrection of the dead and life in the age to come. Amen.

Sure...Teddy Kennedy professed that...Ms Pelosi claims that...

FACT is: you don't have to know much of anything to become a Christian and if you put baptism and a Church between you and Jesus, you'll likely never will become a Christian...

Sad. Our Lord created His Church for us and He commands His Apostles and their successors to Baptize all the Nations. But Pope Iscool the First decrees otherwise. Very sad.

You can never become Christian without Baptism. That is a fact. Jesus Himself sets that as a pre-requisite.
