Constantine had yet to be baptised, and that the only 'determining' constantine did was to invite the heads of all churches...

He insisted that the phrase "consubstantial with the father" be inserted AND HE WASN'T EVEN A CHRISTIAN!

He arranged and paid for those he wanted to attend.

Not really a glorious moment in our history. A select group of Christians were being used for the political purpose of unifying a pagan emperor's kingdom.

Actually Constantine preffered Arianism. He'd have zero motive to insist on anything of the kind!
