"No Protestant has given you a simple yes or no?!?

Excuse me! What do I look like chop liver! I gave you a "Yes". (Please see post #5.)

All the Protestants I know believe in the Nicene Creed. As pointed out, the area of contention isn't among Protestants but among the Western and Eastern Catholic Church. A fact you seem to wish to ignore.

But posting unscientific polls and then making faulty, if not fallacious, assumptions seems to be the norm for some.

I'm not the one who said that all Protestants agree with all aspects of the two creeds, Quester did. This is merely an attempt to take a small and admittedly unscientific snapshot of the sentiment regarding that ascertation here on FR. As far as the filioque debate, the Church deems either form acceptable so it's a moot point.

No, the area of contention is between the Catholic and Orthodox churches. Both accept the Nicene creed, but the Orthodox don't accept the westernized version with the filioque.
