I found that information in "Time Wars" by Jeremy Rifkin.  It is a book 
about human conflicts throught history.  I devotes a few pages to the 
council of Nicea.  I can check his source to find out what it is if anyone 
wants me to.

P.S. Hopefully this is being sent correctly, the last one I had just 
re-setup my mail on a computer, and had missed a few of the default 
setting.
