Trinity mainly overstates its doctrines and exaggerates their precision. It is a theological framework with some fairly minimal heresies, mostly in the West, where subjection of the Son to the Father is denied in favour of a slightly heretical equality doctrine. Of course both East and West have contrived the Divinity concept of shared being into a rather more heretical concept, only heretical to the extent it undermines the independence of Father and Son persons by overemphasising what they have in common to the extent of implying they share a common existence, in this sense of ‘being’, rather than the original sense of shared principles, teachings, ways, and purpose. Most trinity doctrines taken individually would in some sense be true, but are pushed too far, and when combined in the way they are usually combined, tend to lead adherents away from important truth. The answer is probably to reassert those important truths in a way that Trinity adherents and other such framework adherents (such as Oneness) do not misunderstand. Yet their conditioning will make them think this effort is itself heresy. If you live in the West, such as Roman Catholic or Catholic-rooted Protestants, you are supposed to agree with co-equal Father and Son. If you live in the East, such as Eastern Orthodox or Oriental Orthodox, you are not supposed to agree with co-equality. That is a bit heretical in itself, to say you are a heretic if you are not agreeing with the respective dogma for your branch of Christianity. ings, ways, and purpose.
