Sounds like the title of a comic-book retelling of Augustine's Confessions! Or something like that....
once Arius starts fretting about 'the highest created thing' and emphasising the spiritual over the material world, which ISTR he does, this makes the whole thing less attractive.
It does - to me it seems like a logical consequence of the theology, but I don't think Unitarians are prone to it - mind you, I have never actually talked about theology with a Unitarian, so that's not that valuable a comment.
