==Johannine Comma==

Some theologians deny the Biblical basis of the Trinity by denying that I John 5:7-8 (KJV) (the so-called "Johannine Comma") is properly part of the Bible, noting that the great majority of early Christian texts do not include it and showing it was added centuries later.  However, some argue that the Johannine Comma is indeed properly part of Scripture.<ref>[http://www.studytoanswer.net/bibleversions/1john5n7.html Defense of the Johannine Comma]</ref><ref>[http://www.chick.com/ask/articles/1john57.asp Is is true that 1 John 5:7 ... ?]</ref>  Nevertheless, many Bibles, such as the [[NIV]], omit the Johannine Comma (I John 5:7-8 (NIV)), and other evangelicals believe that the Comma should not be there and that the Trinity is apparent from other passages anyway.<ref>Holding, James Patrick, [http://www.tektonics.org/af/comma.html Comma Toss]</ref>

The clearest Biblical basis of the Trinity is a passage at I John 5:7-8 (KJV) (the so-called "Johannine Comma") that does not appear in the great majority of early Christian texts -- the passage was probably added centuries later by persons unknown.
