So the Church was willing to accept "help" from the Emperor even though they had no choice. The Church was not in charge. The Emperor was, and Emperors would remain so for many years.

And was not the Emperor made Emperor by God? Wasn't he used by God to accomlish great things? What about the Council or the creed exactly do you find not true? Or are we just shocked by the pedigree of its making?

I will second SoothingDave's question. Which doctrine expressed in the Niceo-Constantinopolitan Creed do you object to? (I'm making it easy on you: you only have to find a current liturgical text, not separate out the parts written at Niceae in 325 from the part written at Constantinople in 381.)

No. The Emperor was made Emperor by man. His name was used later to create the false "Donations". Is this what you mean by "used by God"?

I find nothing about the Apostles Creed that was untrue. Why do you ask? Are you under the impression it was developed at the Council of Nicea?

FYI. I believe many great thruths have come from the Early Christian Church, the catholic Church, and the Roman Catholic Church.
