I'll start addressing some of your points and stop when time runs out.
The Trinity.
I have said that Christ and the Holy Spirit are manifestations of God (Father), meaning that they do/did things attributed to God, like forgiving sin, healing the sick, revealing God's works... and so on.
That is what I mean by the Trinity.
If I shared what I think is your view of the Trinity, I would also reject it.

I was not referring to the origins of Christianity, but when it was formally established. This was done in the 3rd century when it was decided which material out of the larger body of material to include in the Bible.
The Bible did not result in Christianity. The Bible resulted from Christianity, which was well established when the was created from a subset of existing works.

I believe that the CC's interpretation lines up pretty well with what the authors intended.
I don't have to be a believer to hold this view.
I believe that the links to Pagan beliefs are false and misleading without foundation.
These accusations are thrown around without any backing and are, hence, malicious.

Over time, my beliefs change as I gain deeper understandings.
I see nothing wrong with that.

You tell me what I think God is, for example. I call that telling me what to believe.

I quoted Christ when he gave Peter his role as recorded in the Bible.
Please don't misquote me here because that would be misquoting Christ.
If you want to deny or refute what Christ said, that is your choice

My time in responding to you is now up.
Good night.

Nice post.

We're putting out an extra seat in heaven for you right now. The first atheist to get a gold pass, who'd have thunk it.
