Talk:Works of mercy

Merge
Very little in the corporal and spiritual acts pages not in here. I don't believe they had a distinct history to occupy different pages. Goldfritha 01:19, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Disagreement in Corporal Works of Mercy
I think that "Ransom the captive" ought to be in the list with "Give drink to the thirsty" as the extra does anyone disagree?Commment (talk) 20:42, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

You can disagree, but to make it official you would have to take it up with the pope... 121.223.86.113 (talk) 10:51, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Methodism
I noticed Methodism and Catholicism are merged together for some odd reason.

I tried to edit the page, and I noticed there's a large, hidden section on Methodism. But it's not showing up in the article. :-/

Original research
I tagged the "Biblical basis" section as possible OR because it has no sources other than a primary source (i.e., Bible verses). The interpretation given is by no means the only one that exists for these verses. Indyguy (talk) 19:28, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Eighth corporal and spiritual works
Just as Pope John Paul II added the Luminous Mysteries to the rosary, Pope Francis has added to the works of mercy. For reference to Pope John Paul II's action, see: [] Ccox csc (talk) 13:11, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

Eighth corporal and spiritual works - Counterpoint
He did not do it through a binding document though, only as a suggestion. It doesn't place it on the same level as the others, so I suggest it be at least listed separately, not as part of the 7. Additionally, even if it were added, it would be a corporal work, not a spiritual work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.240.110.38 (talk) 17:18, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

Read the document
Pope Francis was explicit about both a spiritual and a corporal work of mercy. Read the document before you opine. Ccox csc (talk) 00:45, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
