The "quick summary" of "Arian" belief is just wrong.

• In the first place, there were many "Arian" traditions - I've been working on this over at Arian controversy but mostly just covering who, what, where, when and skipping why for now.
• It's not clear which traditions predominated among the Goths. Of course Wulfila greatly influenced Gothic Christianity in general. He signed the Homoian creed at Constantinople (359), but even Aëtius endorsed similar language at the time. Auxentius provides Wulfila's creed and Philostorgius specifically identifies Wulfila as an Anomoean.
• It's clear that the Arian traditions worshiped Jesus and therefore regarded Jesus as God, although the meaning of this probably varied considerably within both Arian and Athanasian traditions. Jacob Haller 01:15, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
