The Nicene Creed. "Filioque" means "and the Son", and the context is "the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son". The Eastern churches don't recognize the "and the Son" part. There's a whole web site about it: http://www.sewanee.edu/Theology/patristicsw/f210/p210.html . -- John Cowan cowan@ccil.org I am a member of a civilization. --David Brin
