'''Filioque''' (pronounced fee-lee-oh-kway) means "and of the Son." In [[Christianity]], it means that [[Holy Spirit]] emanates from the Father and the Son. This is part of the [[Nicene Creed]] but was never accepted by [[Eastern Orthodox]] branch of Christianity.
Filioque is the theological concept that was at the root of the [[Great Schism]]. Western Christianity (the [[Roman Catholic Church]], [[Anglican]]s, and all [[Protestant]] religions) teach that the [[Holy Spirit]] originates from "[[God]] the Son" ([[Jesus]]) and "God the Father." The [[Eastern Orthodox Church]] teaches that the Holy Spirit originates only from God the Father.
