Thomas: (Pt.8) How did anti-Trinitarianism enter Spain?

Thomas now has his own YouTube channel here: @TAlexander/videos So, what about Spain (or Al Andalusia)? How did anti-Trinitarianism come to Spain? The Standard Islamic Narrative (SIN) tells us that Spain was conquered by anti-Trinitarian Muslims between 634 - 661 AD, and that's how it arrived, by the Caliphs who followed after Muhammad. Thomas suggests that record isn't correct, as it doesn't follow what history tells us. Once again Thomas confronts the Standard Islamic Narrative (SIN) view of how anti-Trinitarianism came to Spain. He suggests that the anti-trinitarianism evidenced in Spain had nothing to do with an Islamic invasion between 624 - 661 AD but was first introduced by the Visigoths, an Eastern Germanic tribe, who had conquered much of Spain in 300 AD, and believed that Jesus was divine, but was below God himself. 410 AD: The Visigoths attacked and sacked Rome, and went to Jerusalem and plundered the rebuilt temple there. They then settled in France and Iberia (today Spain), which was mostly made up of Catholics, especially amongst the clergy. The WEST (589 AD): The high nobility, and the monarch in Spain were Catholics. King Reccared I converted to Caholicism, which caused the Arians and the Catholics to fight wars between them, as many of the working class people were Anti-Trinitarians. The EAST (400 AD): The Ibadis (who came from the Lakhmid/Tamim tribe in Iraq) were anti-Trinitarian Christians, and were primarily merchants. They moved across Northern Africa with the Sassanids, helping to conquer it as they went, and then remained there. They convinced the Berber leaders to become anti-Trinitarians, who in turn convinced their people under them. Mu'awiya, and later Abd al-Malik had contact with them between 660 - 700 AD. 711 - 718 AD: Visigoth Coins from Spain at that period show us that they didn't respect the Emperor in Rome, and so had enough power to ignore his dictates. These anti-Trinitarian Visigoths employed the anti-Trinitarian Berbers and other Arabs from North Africa to fight the Catholic rulers in Spain. The Umayyads in Syria, realized that a political vacuum would soon exist in Spain, and so, because of their power and strength, saw their chance and came to Spain and took charge of all of the anti-Trinitarian groups there, who were quite happy to have a power strong enough to stand up to Rome in the north. But look at the dates. This all happened between 711 - 718 AD, which completely confronts the record which we find in the Standard Islamic Narrative, that this Islamization of Spain all happened around 80 years earlier, and by the Rashidun Caliphs. Summary: Though there were anti-trinitarian sentiments in evidence in Spain with the conquering Visigoths, this theological principle came about primarily as a gradual process of anti Trinitarian indoctrination, initially by the eastern Ibadis of Iraq, who introduced their theology across No. Africa, then subsequently by the Umayyads of Syria, who brought it in quite a bit later, in fact a little less than a century later, between 711 AD - 718 AD. This scenario, however, confronts everything we know concerning how these anti-Trinitarian "Islamic" beliefs came to Spain, proving once again that the traditions of Islam are simply not historically accurate. © Pfander Centre for Apologetics - US, 2021 (60,480) Music: "Epic Trailer" by Rafael Krux, from filmmusic-io
