Adam DeVille Member Registered: 01/12/02 Posts: 393 Loc: Fort Wayne, IN	Why have a creed? Isn't that "oppressive"? What is the purpose of the Niceno-Constantinopolitan symbol of faith? Tim Kelleher, producer of a recent documentary on the Nicene Creed, discusses his thoughts here: http://easternchristianbooks.blogspot.com/2012/05/tim-kelleher-on-niceno.html
