“Free” churches err seriously by NOT confessing this and the other historic creeds.

“Protestant” churches including C of E and Episcopalian DO confess the creeds.

The word “catholic” in the creed means “universal,” not Roman.

Many recent printings dubiously substitute “Christian” for catholic, in a reactionary move against ignorance, where people fear they are confessing an acceptance of the Roman church.

There you go.

Most Protestants (those who cite liturgical words & phrases, that is, I did as a Presbyterian but probably never have as a Baptist as there is nothing liturgical about our services)cite the creed as the word “catholic” simple means worldwide church of Jesus Christ, not, as is assumed by many folks designating a denomination, i.e. “Roman Catholic,” “Irish Catholic,” etc.

Many Orthodox Christian churches also refer to themselves as “Catholic,” but definitely don’t mean “Roman Catholic!”

Anglicans and Episcopalians too.

Protestants usually have a profession of faith...but a creed none the less.

i guess if you say catholic with a little “c” its ok.

nah, we said it for years in the Methodist service, with slight word variation from Catholic version

I am amazed so many people know so little about this!

It's not a prayer, and many Protestants use it. My congregation does.

“Only Catholics and Eastern Orthodox say this prayer as far as I know.”

I think Lutherans might and Church of England groups also recite the creed. Dont know about Baptists, pentecostal’s do not and Charismatic and AG do not either. Non denominational... etc... I never have and I probably wouldn’t if I attended a church that did.

All that up and down business... reciting this and that etc... some people need ritual. Some people don’t or never have experienced a ritualistic mass.
