	Filioque clause - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Christian theology the filioque clause or filioque controversy (filioque meaning "and [from] the Son," referring to the Holy Spirit) is a heavily disputed part of the Nicene Creed, that forms a divisive difference in particular between the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions.
		The filioque clause was the main subject discussed at the sixty second meeting of the North American Orthodox-Catholic Theological Consultation, which met at the Hellenic College/Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology in Brookline from June 3 through June 5, 2002, for their spring session.

	Filioque clause
		In Christian theology the filioque clause ("and the Son") is a disputed part of the Nicene Creed.
		In part, the filioque was originally proposed in order to stress more clearly the connection between the Son and the Spirit, amid circumstances in which the writings of the Greek Fathers of the Church were not available.
		The filioque clause was the main subject discussed at the 62nd meeting of the North American Orthodox-Catholic Theological Consultation, which met at the Hellenic College/Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology in Boston from June 3 through June 5, 2002, for their spring session.

	FRANKS, ROMANS, FEUDALISM, AND DOCTRINE Part 3
		The Filioque controversy was not a conflict between the Patriarchates of Old Rome and New Rome, but between the Franks and all Romans in the East and in the West.
		At the foundation of the Filioque controversy between Franks and Romans lie essential differences in theological method, theological subject matter, spirituality, and therefore, also in the understanding of the very nature of doctrine and of the development of the language or of terms in which doctrine is expressed.
		As a heresy, the Filioque is as bad as Arianism, and this is borne out by the fact that the holders of this heresy reduce the Pentecostal tongues of fire to the status of creature as Arius had done with the Angel of Glory.

		This concept refers for its basis to John 14-17, where Jesus is instructing the disciples concerning the meaning of his departure.
		Therefore, as reflected in the filioque clause inserted into the Nicene Creed by the Roman Catholic Church, the Holy Spirit is said to proceed from both the Father "and the Son".
		Some feminist theologians refer to the persons of the Holy Trinity with more gender-neutral language, such as "Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer (or Sanctifier)." This is a recent formulation, which seeks to redefine the Trinity in terms of three roles in salvation, not eternal identities, personalities, or relationships.

		The use of the Filioque at the Council of Toledo of 589 is explained as an effort to oppose Arianism, but no mention is made that Arianism was overcome in the East without the use of the Filioque.

		Already in the story of the Ethiopian eunuch (Acts 8:37 the King James Version) (a passage indeed of doubtful genuineness but attested by Irenaeus and therefore of great antiquity) we find that as a condition of baptism the convert is asked to declare his belief in Jesus Christ as the Son of God.

	One Single Source: An Orthodox Response to the Clarification on the Filioque
		The Filioque seems to suggest two sources of the Spirit's personal existence, one of which (the Father) may be called the first and original cause (principaliter), while the other one (the Son) may be regarded as a secondary (not principaliter) cause, but still a "cause" albeit not "principaliter".
		For him the Filioque was not heretical because its intention was to denote not the εκπορεύεσθαι (ekporeuesthai) but the προείναι (proeinai) of the Spirit.
		The Filioque in no way can be projected from the Economy into the immanent Trinity, and the same is true also of any form of Spirituque that might be detected--this is in fact possible--from the relation of Christ to the Spirit in the history of salvation.

	The Systematic Relationship of Filioque and Parousia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Upon reviewing Barth’s doctrines of Filioque and parousia as outlined in the Church Dogmatics respectively, it is certainly difficult to avoid the impression that the Holy Spirit serves the work of Christ in his parousia, especially in the christological interpretation of the “middle form,” Pentecost.
		On the one hand, the doctrine of the Filioque is a general statement “confirming” or “underlining” what he previously discerned in revelation concerning the immanent relationship of the Holy Spirit to the other two divine modes of being.
		Thus the Filioque is ontically prior to parousia in the sense that the Holy Spirit’s role in the parousia, particularly in his work as the mediator of Christ to the church, will be commensurate with what he has always been in his eternal proceeding from the Father and Son.

	Great Schism - OrthodoxWiki
		It is asserted by many Orthodox that as soon as Rome endorsed the idea of the Filioque, there was a split between the true faith and a schismatic faith.
		Filioque is a word that changes the Latin version of Nicene Creed to include the wording [Spiritus Sanctus] qui ex Patre Filioque procedit or "[Holy Spirit] who proceeds from the Father and the Son."
		For the Pope of Rome to change the Creed unilaterally without reference to an Ecumenical Council was highly offensive to the other four patriarchates and to all the Eastern bishops, as it undermined the collegiality of the episcopacy.

		RC's deny this (of course) and say that denying the "filioque" takes away from the Divinity of the Son, whereby the Trinity becomes a Divine Triad where the Son is subordinated (and therefore unequal) to the Father (who alone is true God and Son is not).
		The "filioque" is a heresy precisely because it destroys the unity of the Godhead.
		The unilateral insertion of "filioque" in the Creed by one Patriarchate of the Ecumenical Church is a violation of the conciliar nature of the Church.
