Talk:Indemnification

Race, Slavery, and Bias
No offense, but these seem to be entirely out of place. The fact that there are phrases using the term "indemnity" in a particular context is not really surprising. I fail to see how every little use is notable and or encyclopedic. Indemnification, at one level, is merely a word with a definition--of which reparation is merely a synonym.

I'm proposing that those topics either be significantly shorten and sunk into one heading. There is no way that the topic of indemnity is consumed largely by a discussion of indemnification for social inequities. Mmmbeer 02:17, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Merge
I'm going to propose that this article and Indemnity be merged. They have nearly identical substance. I'm indifferent as to which should remain. Mmmbeer 02:19, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Bad idea...totally different scopes —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.82.104.120 (talk • contribs)

In Unification Church theology "indemnity" has a special meaning and this it mainly what is talked about in the indemnity article. Maybe there should be an article "Indemnity (Unification Church)" to cover that.Steve Dufour 14:39, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Money
 The topic might be restricted to instances where money is to be paid by the indemnitor. Disallow the inclusion of religion in the final article, perhaps. I would not because there are various sorts of indemnities. Adolf Hitler and the Nazis were not seeking funds from the Jews. TooPotato 00:49, 8 September 2005 (UTC) Bad idea

Legal Meanings
There is a UK usage "Title Indemnity Insurance" referring to the need to people holding property without evidence about restrictions and easements to insure against possible harm from claims.

OED indicates a variety of potential meanings, none of them theological. It seems to me the legal meanings have always been more current than the theological ones which is all that is dealt with in the "Indemnity" article.
