some branches of protestantism that do not accept the Trinity


I guess that's what I was told about when a youth. I was probably
told by a protestant who believed it had to do with protestantism in
general rather than a particular branch thereof. I was too ignorant
to know any better and too disinterested to give a damn.

You've seen the tagline before.

Obviously I thought I knew. Apparently I did not. You're welcome to
seek, and point out, my future mistakes. You have my personal
guarantee that they'll appear.

I admit though, that it may be that you are arguing from your own
conclusion that acceptance of the Trinity defines Christianity
therefore anyone who does not accept the Trinity is, ipso facto,
not a Christian.


No, and I carefully reviewed what I did say. I neither said nor
believe that "the Trinity defines Christianity". I believe that
belief in the trinity distinguishes Roman Catholics from other
Christians. Well, believed that 'til I was informed, this past
week-end and repeated here, that all Christians believe in the trinity.

Well I'm waiting for your clarification of your misstatements our
conversation, or are you like some people who don't apologize even
when they know they are wrong.

As active as you are on this ng I know you have read my comments.

Remind me not to have conversations with you unless there are
witnesses present.
That's news t'me.
