Andrew, as I stated before, I respect your understanding of the Godhead, and you have a right to it. It's a mystery that human terminology can never do total justice. At one point of my life, I shared the same belief that you have, so I understand the arguments involved. I'm also able to appreciate it as a legitimate expression of Gospel truth.
Please do not, however, make false statements concerning what Eastern Christians believe. The vast majority of them, from the beginning of the faith, have held to Trinitarian doctrine. It is not a Latin innovation. It is you who has made this unsubstantiated claim. I'm not the kind of person to hold a man's theology against him, unless he's a satanist or an atheist, which you are neither. You deserve the respect befitting of a fellow Christian, and I'm sorry if I have not given it to you.
