Nicene Creed

=== Other ancient liturgical versions ===
The version in the [[Church Slavonic language]], used by several Eastern Orthodox churches is practically identical with the Greek liturgical version.

This version is used also by some [[Byzantine Rite]] [[Eastern Catholic Churches]]. Although the [[Union of Brest]] excluded addition of the [[Filioque]], this was sometimes added by [[Ruthenian Greek Catholic Church|Ruthenian Catholics]],<ref>{{Catholic |inline=1 |prescript= |first=Andrew |last=Shipman |wstitle=Ruthenian Rite |volume=13}}</ref> whose older liturgical books also show the phrase in brackets, and by [[Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church|Ukrainian Catholics]]. Writing in 1971, the Ruthenian scholar Casimir Kucharek noted, "In Eastern Catholic Churches, the {{lang|la|Filioque}} may be omitted except when scandal would ensue. Most of the Eastern Catholic Rites use it."<ref name="Kucharek">{{Cite book |last=Kucharek |first=Casimir |year=1971 |publication-date=1971 |title=The Byzantine-Slav Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom: Its Origin and Evolution |pages=547 |place=[[Combermere, Ontario]], Canada |publisher=Alleluia Press. |isbn=0-911726-06-3 }}</ref> However, in the decades that followed 1971 it has come to be used more rarely.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://compassreview.org/autumn05/6.html |title=The Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church in Australia and the Filioque: A Return to Eastern Christian Tradition |publisher=Compass |last=Babie |first=Paul |access-date=26 June 2013 |archive-date=14 January 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200114220526/http://compassreview.org/autumn05/6.html |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.archeparchy.ca/documents/Pastoral%20Letter%20on%20the%20Creed.pdf|title=Pastoral Letter of the Ukrainian Catholic Hierarchy in Canada, 1 September 2005|website=Archeparchy.ca|access-date=30 July 2013|archive-date=24 September 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060924104610/http://www.archeparchy.ca/documents/Pastoral|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://stsophia.us/Eng/renewal.htm|title=Mark M.
