The Doctrine of the Trinity--It's complicated.

The Athanasian Creed
This is the Athanasian Creed. It’s used in the liturgy only rarely (sometimes on Trinity Sunday), but like all of the Church’s creeds, it is still valid and respected.
Although no longer officially attributed to St. Athanasius (died in 373 A.D.), it still bears his name. This beautiful creed contains a detailed meditation on the nature of the Trinity.
The Athanasian Creed is also called the Quicumque vult, after its first words in Latin.
