| I hope you are not becoming discouraged by the problems with reliable sources. The editing environment is much harder now than it was in the early days of the encyclopedia.

St Paul's Conversion narrative discrepancy
I made a recent edit to your entry on St Paul. You called it NO constructive. In the section about St Paul's conversion you mention "biblical scholar" Reza Aslan as being skeptical of St Paul's conversion story. He calls it propaganda. In order to be just and fair, it must be pointed out that Mr Aslan is a Muslim and that he vehemently denies the divinity of Christ. So Mr Aslan is not an objective biblical scholar but rather a very bias one. The credibility of this section of the article on St Paul is heavily compromised by someone who clearly has an agenda. I don't believe it is fair. In matters of Sacred Scripture, the highest authority on these matters is the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Jerusalem and in Rome. Jewish, Protestant, Catholic, and Islamic scholars worked together to translate the new testament.

Genesis
Thanks for the mention - you're quite right. I don't actually care all that much, and he's quite right about the interpretation of the opening of Genesis 1 - but he's also wrong, as the interpretation depends on the meaning of the entire chapter, not the actual words used. What I object to have a whole section on this, it unbalances the article. I could add similar discussions for every phrase in all 50 chapters. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.23.133.91 (talk) 02:40, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
Book of Elchasai
I left some comments about your new article here. Ignocrates (talk) 19:41, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not going to spend more time on this. We have admins to explain and enforce policy as needed. Ignocrates (talk) 03:37, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Oh good, your going to stop violating WP policies. Also, you need to reread WP:PSTS specifically Tertiary sources. -- JudeccaXIII (talk) 04:16, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- I brought the matter of reliable sources to RSN. You can explain to them how raising the question is a violation of WP policies. Ignocrates (talk) 14:56, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Ping s
Fyi, pings don't work in edit summaries for some reason. DeCausa (talk) 22:10, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- mmmmm interesting, but you got the message anyway. Please discuss in the article's talk page. -- Thnx & Cheers JudeccaXIII (talk) 22:12, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Of course, but per WP:BRD, the onus is on the other user as tge one seeking to change the article. DeCausa (talk) 06:04, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

www.TorahSummary.org
Dear JudeccaXIII, I am user 'chicagoveter' and have just started using Misplaced Pages in the past few weeks with the goal of adding a link to the new educational resource http://www.TorahSummary.org This is a large, non-profit site containing a summary of each chapter of the Torah (based on the Judaica Press Translation), as well as illustrations and analysis. It is a helpful resource to anyone studying the Torah and no less helpful than other External Links provided on Torah related pages. For example on this page https://en.wikipedia.org/Tanakh#External_links the first link is to the full-text of Judaica Press Translation which is exactly what TorahSummary.org happens to summarize. There is also a link to http://www.itanakh.org/ which is a helpful site created by one individual (Dr. Chris) There are also duplicate and broken links. I understand that your first impression of TorahSummary.org was negative and you thought that it was some sort of religious spam. I assure you that this is not the case. Please take another look and if you still believe that the site should not be linked from Misplaced Pages, then please explain why this is the case, and what TorahSummary.org needs to attain this status. I am trying to understand why is it ok for pages like itanakh.org to be listed but not ok for TorahSummary.org In other words, what made you believe that TorahSummary.org was spam? If it was the fact that I added too many Misplaced Pages links in a short time, then I apologize for that, please let me know what is the correct way. I truly appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you. (If you want, you can reply directly to the user chicagoveter talk page). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:7C00:7:1:1:0:0:45 (talk) 05:40, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
