I'm sorry but did you even read the article? The nicene creed was lead by Emporor Constantine who was not a Christian. So this creed is filled with mythical doctrine written by the Romans

What is the origin of the Trinity?
Constantine was shall we say a "token Christian" and didn't get baptized until he was on his death bed believing that that would allow him to sin all he wanted before playing his "get out of hell free card".
He stopped the persecution of Christians, for which I am thankful, but by getting the government involved he made Christian leadership desirable for people seeking personal wealth, power, and glory.
This plagues the Roman church to this very day.
But despite this, Constantine knew nothing about what books were authentic and what were not and deferred to what the majority of Christian leaders at the time had been using for over 200 years.
So, while Constantine had horrible impact on how the Roman / Eastern church departed from truth for the rest of history, he did not affect what is Biblical Christianity (Protestantism) because that depends only on what the original Greek of the original writers with demonstrable apostolic authority.
I have looked into this in detail while teaching a Bible study series on where the elements of the Apostle's creed came from. It's all in the Bible and the creed faithfully summarizes it.

I have been a bible instructor for 19 years and have disproved the Trinity many times. In my and my colleagues experience, we have found that only by twisting the scriptures can you say the Trinity is real, because there are a few scriptures that are spurious in nature and have been proven to be interpolations. Why would the church feel the need to add scriptures to the bible to prove the Trinity if it was already there to begin with?

The good news is that you are doing your best to study the Scriptures like the good Bereans of Acts 17. If you keep that up, you will at least have a good case to present to the Lord Jesus at your personal judgment. :o)
