Fornicate Face refused to recite the Apostle's Creed

49. Well, there were two right there at the other end of the pew

I've seen this odd "Evangelicals don't do the Apostle's Creed" thing on Twitter as well and find it puzzling that on many people's televisions Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter do not seem to have been in the picture.

I agree that some Evangelical congregations tend to eschew "ritual", so you don't find it in ones that lean more toward Pentecostal types of congregations or, say, any church which has a drum set and electrical guitar amp on a stage up front. And, yeah, there are some that tend not to do liturgical recitations aside from the Lord's Prayer.

Some people get hung up on the word "catholic" with a small "c" in it, which refers to the universal church, and not the Roman Catholic church.

Evangelicals who actually care about their faith are likely to know that the Apostle's Creed is basic.
