We know they disagreed viscerally about the ongoing application of Torah, but I'm not aware of any evidence which challenges the oneness of God- in fact the absence of evidence is highly significant. As is the lack of challenge to the divine nature of Jesus.
Communities, plural, there was no single community of nt authorship. It seems to me that the murder of heretics and the destruction of their work qualifies. Are these things simply absent in whatever history of the Christian movement you draw from?
Challenges to the alleged god mans divinity were dealt with similarly.
