The Nicene Creed (Symbolum Nicaeno-Constantinopolitanum)

The Councils of Nicaea and Constantinople

The one text on this list every body here accepts, which is what makes it the baseline the divisions are measured from. The single clause later added to it in the West — that the Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son — is the doctrinal half of the East–West separation.

Carried, and citing nothing

Cited by nothing, and that is the finding. Every body on the denominations map accepts this text, so no position on that page rests on it — a position is a place where churches differ, and this is the one place they do not. It is carried as the baseline the divisions are measured from. The single clause the West later added to it is another matter, and is recorded on the bodies that argued over it.
