A person who follows or supports the theological doctrines of Athanasius, particularly regarding Christian dogma about Christ's divinity.
From Athanasianism plus -ist, designating a person who adheres to a particular belief system or ideology.
Athanasianists were literally fighting for their interpretation to become official Christian doctrine—and they won, which is why today's Christian understanding of Jesus's divinity traces back to one stubborn 4th-century bishop's victory.
