📖 基本释义

[noun] a system of Christian or other religious belief
[名词] 基督教或其他宗教信仰的一套体系


💡 深入解读

Creed 一词源自拉丁语credo(我信),在古英语时期拼作creda,最初用来表示“宗教信条、教义”,主要指一套明确制定并公认接受的权威信仰和崇拜体系,

比如:

people of all races, colours and creeds各种种族、肤色和宗教信仰的人

而大写首字母的 the Creed 则特指基督教的“信经”,也就是天主教、东正教、新教等基督教的权威性的基本信仰纲要,比如使徒信经(the Apostles' Creed)、尼西亚信经(the Nicene Creed)。等到了17世纪初, creed 开始从上述概念出发,用来泛指宗教以外的“信条、信念、纲领”,也就是一套强烈指导某人行为或影响某人生活方式的基本信念、原则、观点或目标,或者说对某人所宣称或坚持的信念、原则、观点、目标等的概括总结,

比如:

Mary is an industrious player. Never settle for mediocrity is her creed.玛丽是一名勤奋努力的运动员。永不满足于平庸是她的信条。

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."演讲用例
