Nicene Creed
|The Nicene Creed is our symbol of faith. It is named after the Council of Nice and draws its formation from the first two ecumenical Councils (325 and 381 A.D.). The first part of the Creed was written during the First Ecumenical Council held in Nicea, Asia Minor, in A.D.

|Symbolum Quicumque
''Whosoever Creed (Athanasian Creed)''
|The Athanasian Creed divided into two sections, the doctrine of the Trinity,  and the doctrine of Christology. Enumerating the three persons of the Trinity (Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit), the first section of the creed ascribes the divine attributes to each individually. Thus, each person of the Trinity is described as uncreated (increatus), limitless (Immensus), eternal (æternus), and omnipotent (omnipotens). Stresses the unity of the three persons in the one Godhead, thus avoiding a theology of tritheism.

|Ethica, ordine geometryo Demonstrata
''Ethics, Demonstrated in Geometrical Order''
|is a philosophical treatise written in Latin by Spinoza. It was written 1661 and the book is perhaps the most ambitious attempt to apply the method of Euclid in philosophy. Spinoza puts forward a small number of definitions and axioms from which he attempts to derive hundreds of propositions and corollaries, such as "When the Mind imagines its own lack of power, it is saddened by it".

Σύμβολο της Πίστεως ή Σύμβολον τῆς Νικαίας / Sýmvolon tis Nikéas

Nicene Creed

The Nicene Creed is our symbol of faith. It is named after the Council of Nice and draws its formation from the first two ecumenical Councils (325 and 381 A.D.). The first part of the Creed was written during the First Ecumenical Council held in Nicea, Asia Minor, in A.D. multiple languages https://el.wikisource.org/wiki/%CE%A3%CF%8D%CE%BC%CE%B2%CE%BF%CE%BB%CE%BF_%CF%84%CE%B7%CF%82_%CE%A0%CE%AF%CF%83%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%89%CF%82
Symbolum Quicumque

Whosoever Creed (Athanasian Creed)

The Athanasian Creed divided into two sections, the doctrine of the Trinity,  and the doctrine of Christology. Enumerating the three persons of the Trinity (Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit), the first section of the creed ascribes the divine attributes to each individually. Thus, each person of the Trinity is described as uncreated (increatus), limitless (Immensus), eternal (æternus), and omnipotent (omnipotens). Stresses the unity of the three persons in the one Godhead, thus avoiding a theology of tritheism. multiple languages https://la.wikisource.org/wiki/Symbolum_Quicumque

The Δ' Ecumenical Council took place in Chalcedon in 451 AD, and is also known as the Council of Chalcedon. It ruled that Jesus Christ is "in two natures" in opposition to the doctrine of Monophysitism. The council also issued canons dealing mainly with the organization of the Church.

Empiricism[edit | edit source]

text introduction link
A Treatise of Human Nature The Treatise is a classic statement of philosophical empiricism, scepticism, and naturalism. Hume defends a sentimentalist account of morality, arguing that ethics is based on sentiment and the passions rather than reason, and famously declaring that "reason is, and ought only to be the slave to the passions". English, French https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Treatise_of_Human_Nature
An Essay Concerning Human Understanding The view that all concepts originate in experience, all concepts are about or applicable to things that can be experienced, or that all rationally acceptable beliefs or propositions are justifiable or knowable only through experience. This definition accords with the derivation of the term empiricism from the ancient Greek word empeiria, “experience.” Written by Thomas Aquinas.

The New Essays take the form of an imaginary dialogue between two characters: Philalèthe and Théophile.
