"no Christian" is an absolute declaration. To make such a declaration
you would be required to have intimate knowledge of not only every
major Christian father, but every Christian of the 1st C. Obviously
you are not omniscient so that pretty much reduces your assertion as
mere bravado.

Another assumption you make is that Trinitarianism is a product of
humanism. You seem not to understand the dynamics of heresy, the
chicken and the egg thing. Arianism was darkness. As both Gen and Jn
state, Light was before darkness. How many times did Jesus declare, "I
am?" Our English translation insert (and usually italicize) "he," to
make it read, "I am He." But the Greek does not state it so. Why 7 "I
AM" statements in John? Isn't 7 the number of God? And when circles
back to the OT references of those "I AM" statements, you will find
they point only to YHVH. The Jewish leaders clearly understood this,
even noting that Jesus had thus declared Himself to equal to God
(5:18). That Jesus did not correct their conclusion, that He never
once reprimanded anyone from worshipping Him (as angels do in
scripture), makes Him either Satanic in nature, teaching falsehoods, or
it make Him truly God. But you will receive none of this even as the
stiff necked religious leaders of Christ's day would not. "My Lord and
my God."
