Množina: Arianisms

The theological doctrine taught by Arius that Christ the Son was not consubstantial with God the Father.
A system of Christian theology that gave God the Father primacy over Christ. It was founded about 310 by Arius, and condemned as heretical at the Council of Nicaea 325.
Some 17th- and 18th-century theologians held Arian views akin to those of Unitarianism (that God is a single being, and that there is no such thing as the Trinity). In the 1970s the question of the heresy arose again for the Vatican in the writings of such theologians as Edouard Schillebeeckx of the Netherlands.
