Quote:The doctrine of the Trinity is constructed around what has been revealed.


Trinitarianism was so clearly "revealed" that it very nearly lost out to Arianism which diametrically opposed it.  It spread among the Germanic barbarians who overran the Western Roman Empire.  In 410 the Arian Goths sacked Rome and how much better the world would have been if they had wiped out the catholick assholes who were exerting their bullshit over Italy.  Oh well....such are the failings of history.

Nonetheless, the trinity was not so much "revealed" as it was imposed by the Eastern half of the empire.  War, not scripture, determined how your bullshit succeeded.
