So, Mormons are wrong because they don't agree with the definition of God created in ad 325 by a pagan?

An interesting question arises from this DU.

Mormons are big on going out and getting converts. I assume that Converts to the Mormon faith are treated as spiritual and theological equals to those born into the faith.

So if Constantine converted to Christianity, (at great risk to his throne and person I might add) how exactly was this "definition" created by a "pagan"?

(We will of course skip the more obvious argument that it was a committee of 300 religious scholars/officials not solely Constantine, all gathered to put down the vairous heresies of the day many of which the LDS are repeating now...)

The records kept by Constantine show that:
A. He was still not baptized in 325AD.
B. He called the conference, set the agenda and determined the outcome.
C. The Pope was notified later of both the outcome, and the conference.

Click my name, follow the links. The source is the Catholic encyclopedia on-line.

Do you really think the definition of the nature of God should be organized, overseen and set by a government official?

I don't!
