      It’s native to Europe yes, but that disregards the hundreds of millions of people they are orthodox Christians in Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and Central Europe. Along with the many many smaller sects that Catholicism attempted to destroy.

        No it doesn’t. My point is just that it’s wrong to characterize trinitarianism as some rare American creed when most Christians in Spain, France, Portugal, Italy, Belgium, Ireland, Austria, and Poland subscribe to the idea. According to Pew research, Catholics make up around 50% of all Christians, so although it is wrong to say all Christians believe in the Trinity, it’s just as wrong to suggest very few Christians recognize the Trinity.

          Ah, you meant about the trinity, my bad. Just to be clear, that wasn’t what we’re discussing though, he’s arguing for the reformationist interpretation of Jesus being part of the Father himself, not them both being God.
