R' Zev Sero asked:
> Where is this Ramo that says Xianity (i.e. the RC that was
>  dominant in Poland) is shituf not AZ for goyim?

Rav Aryeh Kaplan, in The Handbook Of Jewish Thought 1:20, cites a long list of sources for this. among them the Hagah on Orach Chayim 156:1.

R' Harvey Benton asked:
> Does that mean that all churches would have to be closed
> down and all xians expelled from EY unless they abandoned
> their azara/trinity beliefs? Or, could they claim, that
> their halachos of 7MBN in regards to this issue differ
> than ours, and that therefore they should be allowed to stay???

Rav Aryeh Kaplan (in his footnote on the above) cites a dissenting opinion that non-Jews are allowed shituf only in chu"l, but not in EY - Ramban on Vayikra 18:25 and other sources.
