Talk:Canon regular

OOOPS
Hey Fastifex- I think we are editing the same article at the same time: Canons Regular. I have just restored the contemporary new stuff to the top of the article. Hope you don't mind.

The middle sections on the history and development are loooong, convoluted, and it looks as if historic snippets have been added here and there by parties interested in getting "their" order mentioned, and some if its history or important founders' names folded into the narrative without really fitting them in well. (Some also comes from the old CE article, probably, and it pops up here and there like a different voice: valuable, but needs to be blended better, I'd think.)

I don't have enough expertise to work on this but if someone does, and cares about this article's accuracy, it might be helpful to run through it again. Particularly of note: the section on the 11th c. est. of CReg by Greg VII precedes the note about Chrodegang's work. Later paragraphs are an alphabet soup of names, dates, etc. which neither follow logically, nor chronologically. Thanks! I know it's not easy...96.233.98.79 (talk) 17:32, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

So how do women become priests?
Maybe I missed something - I didn't read the article through - but the parts I did read really emphasise that by definition a congregation of canons regular consists of priests who also take monastic vows.

So the section that introduces canonesses regular has some explaining to do!

 * Good point. I would presume that the canonesses regular occupy a similar "midway point" between fully contemplative nuns (like the Carmelites and Carthusians) and religious sisters who are fully engaged in the world (like the Sisters of Charity).  So they probably have a set location and common life, but are engaged in some work there like a school or hospital.  Just a guess, though.  --194.98.58.121 (talk) 09:28, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

St Patrick
As St Patrick returned to Ireland in AD432 to convert the 'Savage Island' to Christianity the lateran Council in AD492 had nothing to do with his mission. Geologician (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 22:05, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
