當我對耶穌教導的簡單解釋，和他們所教導的保羅戒律開始分裂時，很明顯地我與他們已格格不入了。中國內地教會（the China Inland Mission）的婦女擁有更廣闊的思維，我和她們建立了友誼。但當我開始和她們定期喝茶時，其中一個年長的弟兄會成員叫我不要再見她們，因為保羅已告訴我，羊群甚至不應與來自不同教會種類的人一起喝奶。
Constantine-who, at his appearance, was accorded a ceremonious reception, and himself delivered an address on the occasion-exercised a decided influence on the discussions
The creed thus evolved-the expression... is of Western origin-was finally signed by all the deputies with the exception of the bishops Theonas of Marmarica and Secundus of Ptolemais: even the Arians had submitted... For it was the proclamation of the Nicene Creed that first opened the eyes of many bishops to the significance of the problem there treated; and its explanation led the Church to force herself, by the arduous path of theological work, into compliance with those principles, enunciated at Nicaea, to which, in the year 32 5, she had pledged herself without genuine assent.

- 我相信你和我都無參與過尼西亞會議。

- beebeechan建議集中討論耶和華見証人引述《不列顛百科全書》那段。
- 暫時我們都無能力核實《不列顛百科全書》內描述的是否史實。
- 討論之前及討論期間，beebeechan不斷強調耶和華見証人「與歷史不符的胡扯」、「加鹽加醋」，並試圖援引《不列顛百科全書》以外的資料（例如Catholic Online) 以擾亂討論。
- 我找到耶和華見証人引述《不列顛百科全書》那段的理據，beebeechan卻認為要考慮 "a fact which is mainly demonstrated by the subsequence hhistory of the Arian conflicts" 這句，但卻沒有進一步解釋。
