I understood that.

It isn't the beginning of the sentence.

And you are ignoring of the context of "ton theon" before "kai theos".
You are also ignoring (or misunderstanding) the context of John 1:3, as
well as the monotheistic Jewish culture. No observant non-Trinitarian
Jew would ever say that Jesus is "a god", unless they said that He was
"a false god."
