Talk:Confessionalism (religion)

Definition
Vardion, this definition is essentially one of fundamentalism - definitely more narrow than the confessing movement in the mainline churches, and probably more narrow than the evangelical link as well. I am therefore removing these links, at least for the time being. Pollinator 02:52, August 21, 2005 (UTC)


 * I don't really know much about the confessing movement, and so simply assumed that they were linked to confessionalism as I understood it. Sorry for my error. Perhaps you could add something to this article to explain what the differences are? -- Vardion 03:05, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

 * period under review [1866-1900]. The question of subscription

 * chief subject of discussion among our theologians."

Confessionalism in Christianity
The entire article is already about Confessionalism in Christianity, so I changed the intext title in the lead to "Confessionalism in Christianity" to be more accurate about what is actually stated in the article. I hope someone changes the official title to match and create a different article for Religious Confessionalism in a general sense. 66.44.114.72 (talk) 21:28, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
