But you accept it as a matter of faith.

I'd have to say 'No'. If I'm understanding your definition here of faith. I didn't choose to accept the Creed. I studied it. I studied the history of it and the Church. I studied scripture. I reflected on my own personal spiritual experience - at this point in my particular path I relied quite heavily on it.

Off topic though it may be, that's my particular case. On topic, there was a clear teaching, I had many long discussions with Priests and teachers speaking authoritatively - as deep or as broad as I wished to know - This is What The Church Believes.
