"The Creed is not a statement; it is a dogmatic proclamation of what the whole Church believes in, a symbol of Christian faith."
It is, as it has been, the "Σύμβολον τῆς Πίστεως". "If anyone has the oldest original Latin version of the Creed please post it." I'll bet there's no "filioque" in it! :) I do wonder about the "Deum de Deo". Where does it come from? As we can see, its not in the Greek (not that its wrong).
