[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Episcopalianism is a credal religion--that is, everything you need to believe to be an Episcopalian is contained in the creed, in this case the Nicene Creed. This includes the following: For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures[/quote] Yes, and Episcopalians can have a mythical or metaphorical understanding of those words and be in good standing in the church. Some people believe those words as fact, others don't believe them in any way and don't say the creed when it's read aloud. Some don't even stand with others in the congregation. But they are still welcome to pledge and be active members of the church. CLergy don't even urge people to mouth the words of the creed. If you don't believe it or feel uncomfortable about it, you don't have to say it.[/quote]
