The Trinity and all of its supporting doctrines are all circular in reasoning

Yep. That's what I noticed too.

And the reply is that in analyzing scripture you are too hyper literal, therefore dividing and cutting scripture to your liking. So then giving scripture is pointless.

The lack of scripture in reply, I think, is not because there isn't sound contextual scriptural arguments that blow Unitarianism out of the water, but because the scripture we do, as trinitarians give, is cut to pieces.

The messiah threatened to shake up the balance of power in the 1st century just as much as he does today.

There would need to be an authority shift from their trinitarian apologetics handbooks, from their creeds, their interpretations, and inevitably a loss of institutional control. The real Jesus would shake up the trinitarian church and they would be forced to repent, leave apostasy, and become scriptural.

The trinitarian church authority is based on tradition, divine mystery (Gnosticism), and if the mystery about God and Jesus were removed for them, the trinitarians couldn't be gatekeepers of their own religion anymore, but instead assimilate into Jesus' church.

It's remarkable the similar parallels between the 1st century religious establish of Jesus' time and the trinitarian church. Not many would follow Jesus then, the same is true now.

Amazing how backwards you present things.

Jesus did shake up power. He removed power of the leaders of Jerusalem. You seem to pretend that Jesus is going to undo Christianity and leave it back to some unknown power. I guess that is your hope -- a removal of all knowledge of Christ.

You forget that you are introducing the novel, new, gnostic, private interpretation and cannot even defend your argument. You are doing like the JWs and the Mormonites in claiming that everything that was taught before your doctrine condemns people. I suppose you hope to be one of the 144,000 and not miss it by being 144,001.

All you have to do to convince people to unitarianism is to show that the evidence in scripture of the deity of Christ and his preexistence as the Word is untrustworthy. But you cannot even do that.
