The fact that what are often called ‘low church’ protestants are dominant here in the US, is not true around the world. One Half of all Christians are Roman Catholics, and accept the Creed and the perpetual virginity of Mary. Of the remaining Christians, half of the rest are in Orthodox Churches, mostly in the East, and they are also Niceans. Of the The remaining Protestant Christians, the Anglican Community, the Methodists, the Lutherans, and what are called the Reformed churches in Europe, are all Niceans and make up over half of the remaining 25%. So whether or not church members worry about these theological truths, about 90% of Christians around the world belong to churches that accept these ideas.

Luke 18
1. Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.
2. He said: "In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared about men.
3. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, `Grant me justice against my adversary.'
4. "For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, `Even though I don't fear God or care about men,
5. yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually wear me out with her coming!'"
6. And the Lord said, "Listen to what the unjust judge says.
7. And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?
8. I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"
