Talk:World Alliance of Reformed Churches

[Untitled]
The concluding paragraph in the section on History is clearly biased and does not adhere to Wikipedia's neutral point of view (POV) policy (as follows):

''The WARC highlights on its website, as a primary focus for the Alliance, a ten point program, which includes standard liberation theology positions such as the following three radical program points:

1. Deepening the church’s understanding of partnership and addressing gender injustices in church and society [aka same sex partnerships and feminism] ...

4. Building education/awareness to ensure that the impact of the economy on women and young persons is considered in covenanting for justice [aka comparable worth, and non-capitalist economic systems] ...

5. Facilitating holistic theological reflections regarding justice in the economy and the earth [aka socialism & extreme environmentalism] ...''

It is debatable whether these three WARC program points are in any way "radical."

There is no evidence that the word "partnership" in point 1 in WARC's program points refers in any way to same-sex marriage. In addition, addressing gender injustices (such as human rights violations against women and girls) is hardly an endorsement of feminism. Feminism is a Western political movement with a complex agenda that goes beyond simply opposing gender-based injustice.

There is no evidence that point 4 refers to or advocates for non-capitalist economic systems.

There is no evidence that point 5 advocates for socialism or extreme environmentalism.

Therefore, this section should be deemed biased and non-neutral until such time that it is edited to reflect a neutral point of view.

Alliance of the Reformed Churches holding the Presbyterian System has been a stub for some time now, and the information found there could be incorporated into this article. To facilitate development of both pages, and provide context for the source page, I recommend a merge. --JFHutson (talk) 14:45, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
