Arianism as a form of Christianity.

[edit]

Several times the article mentions that Clotilde was influential in converting her husband to Christianity, but it also mentions that Clovis was already an Arian. Wouldn't it be more correct to say that Clotilde help convert Clovis to Catholicism as Arians were already a Christian, albeit heretical, sect?

The problem with this all is that Clovis being an Arian is an invention. The historical sources (and the vast majority of historians) deem him a pagan, who then converted to (Catholic) Christianity. That it was Catholic Christianity gave him an edge in this conquest of Gaul. Str1977 (talk) 15:02, 18 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
