Ok so you are the aribiter of christianity are you?
Did I say I was? No. I told you what defines Christians to Christians. You can make up what gibberish you like, that's fine.
The truth is there are many shades of christianity not all of them agree with the nicene creed.
Sorry to pop your bubble. Just stick your fingers back in your ears and sing lalala. It'll all be alright soon.
By putting too much importance it seems you discounting many people from christianity.
Non Christians... sure
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?
Many ppl call themselves Christians even though they are clearly not. Many Christians disagree on creeds but are still Christians. Baptists are Christians.
