Well, my belief is that the Bible is a good book full of some interesting concepts. However, it's like the world's longest game of telephone, the message, while maintaining a few of its original characteristics has been corrupted a great deal over the past. The Bible, while providing us some history and some stories about Christ, God, etc., is not the end all, be all of Christianity. So as far as what to believe and what not to believe, except for the above mentioned items embodied in the Nicene Creed, it really doesn't matter.
