Sounds really pretty, EXCEPT for "qui ex Patre Filioque procedit" That part split the Church in two. Once the RC's drop it, things will be headed in the right direction.

Tex, I'm guessing you're a recent EO convert as you've marked the part wrongly. The only issue is with the word Filioque. The other part is acceptable to the EO and translates as "who proceeds from the Father (and the Son)". You DO believe that the Spiritu Sanctum proceeds from the Father, correct?

Furthermore, do read up a bit more on the Filioque controversy. It's a question of language. Both Latins and Greeks believed that the Father is the originator of the Holy Spirit AND that the Son, along with the Spirit are of one substance with the Father. Leaving out Filioque to the Latins seemed (and to some extent) seems Arian, but that is NOT how the Orthodox see it. The Orthodox belief about the procession of the FAther, Son and Holy Spirit is of the same essence as the Latin belief, the words divide us.
