Misplaced Pages does not care about you or me being qualified scholars. Misplaced Pages is not a scholarly site, but a summary of sources that speak for themselves. We all have the right to edit, but there are rules to make sure that proper sources are used for appropriate articles and editors are civil.
If I'm not responding, that's probably because
and I may be asleep, job hunting, or I totally may just not care enough to bother. If it's before 8 AM or after 11 pm, you will definitely want me to respond. |
New stuff goes at the bottom, people. Also, please sign your posts in talk pages with four tildes (~~~~).
I'm back from "vacation" in the mountains of Georgia. Ian.thomson (talk) 17:00, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
What's your beef?
I carefully read No Original Research again to refresh my memory. It says "primary sources are permitted if used carefully" It also says "all material added...must be attributable...even if not actually attributed" So you need to explain why you delete my posts without considering them or discussing them. Are we to eliminate the self-evident fact that Jesus as the Bridegroom is rooted in the Old Testament since the New Testament didn't exist while he was here on earth? There is clearly a parallel between Rev. 21:2, 9-10 and the use of multiple names for the bride: (the city; Jerusalem; the bride; the wife of the Lamb) and numerous verses in Isaiah.
If you will read carefully my most recent post--A New Beginning--you will find my comments on my extensive experience concerning this and related issues. But let me describe here my experience on WP-- In trying to write on Sustainable systems theory I was rapidly and repeatedly deleted by otherwise brilliant experts on human-designed complex systems who didn't have the slightest insight into the difference between their field and complex sustainable systems in nature (such as ecosystems).--But since I already knew Gregory Bateson had spent over a decade trying to explain this and establish the foundations for a metascience that would unify various fields--and he wasn't understood so why should I feel offended? It's just that it is increasingly and urgently needed to understand the global ecosystem.
Today I also spent a considerable amount of time on Amazon.com. There are over 25 books listed on the Bride of Christ, most of them published in the last 10 years, most of them evangelical but two older ones are respectively Russian Orthodox and Catholic. But none of them a history of the first 3 centuries of the Christian church. This suggests there is a need for a WP entry on the Bride of Christ. (There is a mention that it was Tertullian who first officially used the term Bride of Christ--at least in writing.
Over the last 40+ years I've come across a considerable amount of information on the early church--however I didn't purchase or record it with intentions of citing it on WP. (That Martin Luther eliminated some books of the Old Testament from the Protestant canon after consulting with Jewish scholars on the Hebrew canon is one of them).--Margaret9mary (talk) 23:02, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
