eWhat God "is not" does not necessarily infer what He IS. The Trinitarian view is not proven by Adoptionism's fault.
Not quite. The Trinitarian view isn't proved right by pointing out that the adoptionists are wrong, however as the adoptionists ARE wrong, we know God isn't that, just as we know God isn't in some tree or statue.
By definition, both are mere tradition, as neither is declared within the Word.
Adoptionism is denied in the Word, Trinitarianism (and I'll give Modalism this) are not. Modalism is a tricky one for ME -- scripture doesn't give me a direct answer for or against it, so I'm willing to live and let live Uri's points (I don't agree with his view though)

However, I would assert that *none* are correct, and *ALL* are an artifice, each of which fail to contain Mighty Jehovah. He is the I AM. He is ONE.
