Call it whatever you like. The original author of 1 John didn't write it. Someone else, a few hundred years later, added that verse.

If the Trinity verse was there from the very beginning, there would not be any need for the numerous ecumenical councils over a few hundred years to finally agree on the Trinity.

If someone added it...does that mean he is falsifying the texts? The abundance of manuscripts supported the verse...whether it was taken out or a footnote was inserted shows you that we are transparent...we could have just leave the Trinity verses as it is
