Question regarding Arius...

I did as you suggested and looked up Arius and read how he died. (gruesome)

However, if Arius was a heretic for not recognizing the Trinity, why was he later canonized as a saint by the Catholic Church?

I’m not Catholic, but I can tell you for a fact that there is no St Arius. You’re probably thinking of St Athanasiua, who was one of Arius’ theological opponents.
