Ok so you are the aribiter of christianity are you?
Any christian has to pass the Frodo test before they are accepted as 'true scotsmen' err I mean christians?
The truth is there are many shades of christianity not all of them agree with the nicene creed.
By putting too much importance on it, it seems you discounting many people from christianity.
This from wikipedia.
Many evangelical Protestants reject creeds as definitive statements of faith, even while agreeing with some creeds' substance. The Baptists have been non-creedal “in that they have not sought to establish binding authoritative confessions of faith on one another.” [31]:p.111 Also rejecting creeds are groups with roots in the Restoration Movement, such as the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and the Churches of Christ.[32][33]:14-15[34]:123
So if theyre not christians what would you call them Frodo?
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
