Talk:James Montgomery (poet)

Religious views
The addition of following text has proved to be controversial and so I have reproduced it here in the hope that other editors might be able to use it (and the PhD theses it cites) and improve upon it. As the article stands, even though Montgomery's work often had a strong religious theme to it, we have little about his religious life and motivations beyond his upbringing and ministerial training.

 * Although raised in the Moravian Church, in Sheffield there was no Moravian congregation and Montgomery attended various churches or, especially during his early years in Yorkshire, did not attend church at all. Despite this, Montgomery retained an affinity for the Moravians and both took fellowship and worshipped with them when it was possible.
