Why not dismiss the trinitarian belief outright

Yeah, you want a document signed by Christians where they admit how they aped other religions? Or a document signed by Quentin Tarantino in which he admits to aping "City on Fire" (1987) into "Reservoir Dogs" or is it enough to just watch those two movies back to back?

In any case, in this BBC documentary, a certain historian demonstrates how Christianity and paganism are so intertwined that believing in Jesus is like believing in Zeus



teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
