Unitarianism

At the Council of Nicaea, a single Greek letter separated “same substance” from “similar substance”—and the disagreement helped ignite centuries of bitter controversy.

Writing in the early twentieth century, W. G. Tarrant traces Unitarian thought from ancient disputes over Christ’s nature to the struggle for religious liberty in England. There, to question the Trinity could mean imprisonment or death: John Bidle endured years of confinement for his beliefs, while other dissenters were burned. Tarrant follows the people who challenged not only an orthodox doctrine but the authority to decide what others were permitted to believe. How did a plea for freedom of conscience take root amid such punishment?
