Well newbie, one supposes if you were looking to pick an argument with those who adhere to Liturgical Churches, this may have seemed like a good start but seemingly you're simply being ignored.

Your comments about creeds work equally well in a discussion about the Constitution -- about which John Adams famously stated, "Our constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

Creeds, like the Constitution, are meaningful to those who are a priori obedient to the principles underlying the creed; and mere obstacles to those who are not obedient to them.

St. Paul discusses the distinction at length, in his Epistle to the Romans.
