True.  And don't forget the Athenasian Creed,
which is significantly longer than both.

If I recall correctly, in my hymnal, the
Apostles' Creed takes up about 1/3 of the page.
The Nicene Creed takes up about 1/2 of the page.
The Athenasian Creed takes up one whole page.
So, this could mean the difference between a
soft-boiled egg and a hard-boiled egg.
