the trinity is a polytheistic belief but Christians believe that they are monotheistic because they believe that these three people are three parts of one deity, which is NOT supported by the bible,
this belief was created by emperor Constantine, who was a pagan but converted to Christianity and wanted every other pagan too also, so he made the church start this dogma, it is not true the father the son and the holy spirit are three different beings, the son and the holy spirit are NOT to be worshiped.
Jesus is the SON and is not God himself. the concept of the Trinity is blasphemous and absurd.

Jesus Christ first taught about the Trinity. The New Testament is full of His references to the three divine Persons, as well as incidents of the three Persons being simultaneously present and operating independently, as at the baptism of Jesus. Which is why the Christian Church has believed in the Trinity from day one.

the trinity isn't found in the bible, but can be deduced from the text within scripture, the same as alot of people accept the rapture, rapture doesn't appear once in scripture but can be deduced from certain parts in the bible. it is simply the name given to the theological concept. the early christians(catholic) all believed the trinity, it then became declared as accepted teaching by the leaders of the nicene creed.

Jesus started the knowledge of the Trinity right before He left His disciples at His ascension. He said, "Go forth, and tell this good news, in the name of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit."

The Trinity began in the early Church, it was kind of a "Have your cake and eat it, too" thing about the Trinity and monotheism. It is not mentioned in the Bible.
You're right about the "us" in Genesis. It is called the "royal we". Queen Victoria's famous reply of "We are not amused," refers to herself (specifically, she disliked a performance of the opera HMS Pinafore). Kings and Queens often referred to themselves in the plural as a way of showing their superiority. Should God be any less?

the trinity is influenced by greek and roman methology which was throughout the roman empire, where the trinity arised from. No Prophet ever mentioned the trinity. Muhammad called people back to the worship of God alone, and not his Prophet.
'Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary)." But the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers) there are no helpers.' (Qur'an 5:72)

There is no teaching in the Bible, because it ain't there. The trinity doctrine was born out of the Nicene Council of 325 AD.
