Book links
Just want you to now that the book - Judaism's Story of Creation: Scripture, Halakhah, Aggadah (Brill Reference Library of Judaism)- actually calls it a  creation-myth of Genesis at http://books.google.com/books?id=agcdtGmQfwIC&pg=PA38  not a good source for your point..but it is a good publisher. Best if I tell you here before others go of on a rant about it - is a book used before to argue creation-myth. --Moxy (talk) 18:57, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah, okay, thanks! I should have looked closer. We can put it in both lists, actually. Evan (talk&#124;contribs) 18:59, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Peter Shatner
Please stop erasing factual data. I am starting to detect a bias. Please read below.

(Wall Street Journal Online by JAMES TARANTO, Aug. 28, 2012 1:59 p.m. ET - He turned out to be Peter Shatner--no relation to Sen. Mark Kirk of Illinois, but the son of the man who played another Kirk in the original "StarTrek."

From Wikipedia:

What counts as a reliable source Further information: Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources The word "source" in Wikipedia has three meanings:

the type of the work (some examples include a document, an article, or a book) the creator of the work (for example, the writer) the publisher of the work (for example, Oxford University Press). All three can affect reliability.

Base articles on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Source material must have been published, the definition of which for our purposes is "made available to the public in some form".[6] Unpublished materials are not considered reliable. Use sources that directly support the material presented in an article and are appropriate to the claims made. The appropriateness of any source depends on the context. The best sources have a professional structure in place for checking or analyzing facts, legal issues, evidence, and arguments. The greater the degree of scrutiny given to these issues, the more reliable the source. Be especially careful when sourcing content related to living people or medicine.

If available, academic and peer-reviewed publications are usually the most reliable sources, such as in history, medicine, and science.

Editors may also use material from reliable non-academic sources, particularly if it appears in respected mainstream publications. Other reliable sources include:

university-level textbooks books published by respected publishing houses magazines journals mainstream newspapers.

Petershatner (talk) 14:13, 24 August 2014 (UTC) Editors may also use electronic media, subject to the same criteria. See details in Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources and Wikipedia:Search engine test.


 * Have you added the citations to the article? You definitely didn't in the edits I reverted. If you want to add something to a BLP, you need to source the information in the article, not just when someone questions it. Evan (talk&#124;contribs) 14:18, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

You're welcome
I should add that there were a lot - I mean a lot - or double redirects for this article. I started to clean them up, but would appreciate some help. It seems that someone went to a lot of effort to create a trail of breadcrumbs to the article. Regards, Ground Zero | t 18:26, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah. I'll take a look. Evan (talk&#124;contribs) 18:27, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Thanks
I wanted to thank you for acknowledging my mention of the Isabel Rivers work. I assume you have read it? This is one of the few books I have bought en masse and given away to people with any interest at all in the subject.

My boyfriend, who is a dyslexic musician, found this book most helpful when we studied it together. He loves Shakespeare, but it is almost a third language for him. There's no greater reward than seeing someone light up when they finally 'get' something from Shakespeare.

In any case, I truly appreciated your thanks for this. :)

 * I haven't read it, actually, but after clicking your link I was quite taken with the excerpts I found. I've been dismantling both Milton and Shakespeare in search of various religious themes of late, so it's definitely up my alley (and, with my free time allotment being what it is, "short" is also a selling point). The used bookseller I placed the order from thanks you as well! Evan (talk&#124;contribs) 04:35, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Wonderful to hear. The book should cost you a pound at most used or two bucks. I'd suggest reading Richard II, Richard III after reading the book.  Polanski's film of MacBeth also benefits, as does Olivier's King Lear.  Especially Richard II which is undervalued but which has the
 * This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
 * This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
 * This other Eden, demi-paradise,
 * This fortress built by Nature for herself
 * Against infection and the hand of war,
 * This happy breed of men, this little world,
 * This precious stone set in the silver sea,
 * Which serves it in the office of a wall
 * Or as a moat defensive to a house,
 * Against the envy of less happier lands,
 * This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England...
 * soliloquy in it. Much of what is said there and before and after cannot otherwise be understood.  For instance, John of Gaunt is dying and knows he is dying and hence describes himself as a prophet new inspired.  This is dealt with in the Stoicism chapter.  The Stoics identified the breath with the soul, and hence held the words of dying men like Gaunt as closer to the "inspiration" of heaven.  An Elizabethan schoolboy would know this, but not we latter-day readers. Enjoy and pass along. 05:03, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

A Prophet new inspired
Yes, I'll certainly be glad to help. I would have sworn the matter is covered in Rivers. I may also have read it in Harbage (A Reader's Guide to William Shakespeare) which I also highly recommend, or it may have been something I heard on a commentary documentary, although I doubt that. Giovanni Reale's Systems of the Hellenistic Age is invaluable for understanding the Stoics. The best thing will be to email me since I can mark an email unread as a reminder--WP is not good for leaving reminders. I just came acrost Rivers recently while cataloguing what I have in storage. I should be able to find that easily. Do you abide in the US? I might also be able to get you or email you a copy of the Fiona Shaw version of Richard II, since Deborah Warner's production company seems entirely uninterested in releasing it commercially. I live in NY, so both email me when you get this, and ping me around 8-ish on Thursday night.

Oh, and I just threw out my copy of Harbage, which had split in two at the spine. But I'll see if I can get it from the library. μηδείς (talk) 04:11, 29 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Do keep pinging me on this. All the people my parents' age are deciding to die, I have ineffectual healthcare, and the requested refs are only showing up once a week thru ILL.  But I am trying. μηδείς (talk) 06:01, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

EUREKA!

My source was indeed Reale's Systems of the Hellenistic Age, p 303, where he quotes Cicero (from Cicero's De Divinatione) as saying "Proof of the power of dying men to prophesy is also given by Posidonius..." You can read the full account here. Obviously you'll need to get the original Cicero. I don't have On Divination myself.

Here is the result of googling "Shakespeare and Cicero" and this analytical and densely annotated source, published on line, Materials for the Construction of SHAKESPEARE'S MORALS The Stoic Legacy to the Renaissance by Ben R. Schneider, Jr., Professor Emeritus of English at Lawrence U. seems quite excellent. μηδείς (talk) 23:01, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Hey, for some reason, I have been unable to read past page 8 of the pdf. (The problem may be on my end, I will see what I can do.)


 * I was curious if you know the history of Beethoven's Third Symphony, the Eroica, which is considered by many the first musical work of the Romantic movement, and which B had dedicated to Napoleon, until he ripped up the title sheet. Caveat lector: again I go by memory.


 * μηδείς (talk) 04:07, 24 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Hey, Medeis! I sent a PDF file again, along with the DOCX original. Hope you can get into it somehow. I am indeed aware of the Eroica affair, and it's certainly a great example of the kind of thing I'm exploring from a political angle&mdash;disillusionment, not to be confused with disenchantment in the Weberian sense, which is a parallel Enlightenment/Romantic development mostly in the realm of religion. The interesting thing about Napoleon is that Romantic admiration for him comes out of an era in which old religious and political orders were overturned, so by the time e.g. Wordsworth renounces the Napoleonic cause, the disillusionment has spiraled inward again into a weird kind of meta-disillusionment. In Byron, because of the way he casts it in supernatural and religious language, I think we can legitimately call this disenchantment, whatever that means on a literary level. The spell has broken. Evan (talk&#124;contribs) 22:39, 24 December 2015 (UTC)


 * I am sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet, I got the pdf in fully readable format, but then Christmas and the relatives and New Years. Tomorrow I get the cast off my foot.

... that some people know Christ the Lord is risen today from Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch?"

Featured article Nominated by FutureTrillionaire

Jesus (7–2 BC to 30–33 AD) is the central figure of Christianity, whom the teachings of most Christian denominations hold to be the Son of God and the awaited Messiah of the Old Testament. Virtually all modern scholars of antiquity agree that a historical Jesus existed, although there is little agreement on the reliability of the gospel narratives and how closely the biblical Jesus reflects the historical Jesus. Most scholars agree that Jesus was a Jewish preacher from Galilee, was baptized by John the Baptist, and was crucified in Jerusalem on the orders of the Roman prefect, Pontius Pilate. Christians generally believe that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, performed miracles, founded the Church, died by crucifixion as a sacrifice to achieve atonement, rose from the dead, and ascended into heaven, from which he will return. The great majority of Christians worship Jesus as the incarnation of God the Son, the second of three Persons of a Divine Trinity. A few Christian groups reject Trinitarianism, wholly or partly, as non-scriptural. In Islam, Jesus is considered one of God's important prophets and the Messiah.

Ichthus: May 2018


Project News By

Last month's auspicious relaunch of our newsletter precipitated something of an uproar in the Wikipedia community. What started as a localized edit war over censorship spilled over onto the Administrator's Noticeboard finally ending up at Wikipedia's supreme judicial body ArbCom. Their ruling resulted in the admonishment of administrator for his involvement in the dispute. The story was reported by Wikipedia's venerable flagship newspaper The Signpost.

The question of whether to delete all portals--including the 27 Christianity-related portals--was put to the Wikipedia community. Approximately 400 editors have participated in the protracted discussion. Going by !votes, Oppose deletion has a distinct majority. The original Christianity Portal was created on November 5, 2005 by and the following year he successfully nominated the portal for Featured Portal. has revived WikiProject Portals with hopes of revitalizing Wikipedia's system of 1,515 portals.

Featured article Nominated by Operation Auca was an attempt by five Evangelical Christian missionaries from the United States to make contact with the Huaorani people of the rainforest of Ecuador. The Huaorani, also known as the Aucas, were an isolated tribe known for their violence, both against their own people and outsiders who entered their territory. With the intention of being the first Protestants to evangelize the Huaorani, the missionaries began making regular flights over Huaorani settlements in September 1955, dropping gifts. After several months of exchanging gifts, on January 2, 1956, the missionaries established a camp at "Palm Beach", a sandbar along the Curaray River, a few miles from Huaorani settlements. Their efforts culminated on January 8, 1956, when all five&mdash;Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Ed McCully, Peter Fleming, and Roger Youderian&mdash;were attacked and speared by a group of Huaorani warriors. The news of their deaths was broadcast around the world, and Life magazine covered the event with a photo essay. The deaths of the men galvanized the missionary effort in the United States, sparking an outpouring of funding for evangelization efforts around the world. Their work is still frequently remembered in evangelical publications, and in 2006, was the subject of the film production End of the Spear. (more...)

Did You Know Nominated by

... that in 1636, Phineas Hodson, Chancellor of York Minster, lost his 38-year-old wife Jane during the birth of the couple's 24th child?

Featured article Nominated by The Mortara case was a controversy precipitated by the Papal States' seizure of Edgardo Mortara, a six-year-old Jewish child, from his family in Bologna, Italy, in 1858. The city's inquisitor, Father Pier Feletti, heard from a servant that she had administered emergency baptism to the boy when he fell sick as an infant, and the Supreme Sacred Congregation of the Roman and Universal Inquisition held that this made the child irrevocably a Catholic. Because the Papal States had forbidden the raising of Christians by members of other faiths, it was ordered that he be taken from his family and brought up by the Church. After visits from the child's father, international protests mounted, but Pope Pius IX would not be moved. The boy grew up as a Catholic with the Pope as a substitute father, trained for the priesthood in Rome until 1870, and was ordained in France three years later. In 1870 the Kingdom of Italy captured Rome during the unification of Italy, ending the pontifical state; opposition across Italy, Europe and the United States over Mortara's treatment may have contributed to its downfall.

 * 1) Elizabeth I of England – legendary monarch who ushered in the Elizabethan Era over the dead body of her half-sister (#5)
 * 2) Henry VIII of England – on his deathbed the last words of the king who founded the English Reformation were "Monks! Monks! Monks!"

 * 4) Seven deadly sins – surprisingly "original research" is not one of the Seven deadly sins
 * 5) Mary, Queen of Scots – arrested for Reigning While Catholic (RWC)
 * 6) Michael Curry (bishop) – our article says that he upstaged Meghan at her wedding. Did you see her wedding pictures? All I can say is

Our newest Featured list Nominated by List of dates predicted for apocalyptic events. Predictions of apocalyptic events that would result in the extinction of humanity, a collapse of civilization, or the destruction of the planet have been made since at least the beginning of the Christian Era. Most predictions are related to Abrahamic religions, often standing for or similar to the eschatological events described in their scriptures. Christian predictions typically refer to events like the Rapture, Great Tribulation, Last Judgment, and the Second Coming of Christ.

Polls conducted in 2012 across 20 countries found over 14% of people believe the world will end in their lifetime, with percentages raging from 6% of people in France to 22% in the US and Turkey. In the UK in 2015, the general public believed the likeliest cause would be nuclear war, while experts thought it would be artificial intelligence. Between one and three percent of people from both countries thought the apocalypse would be caused by zombies or alien invasion. (more...)

Featured article Nominated by When God Writes Your Love Story: The Ultimate Approach to Guy/Girl Relationships is a 1999 book by Eric and Leslie Ludy, an American married couple. After becoming a bestseller on the Christian book market, the book was republished in 2004 and then revised and expanded in 2009. It tells the story of the authors' first meeting, courtship, and marriage. The authors advise single people not to be physically or emotionally intimate with others, but to wait for the spouse that God has planned for them.

The book is divided into five sections and sixteen chapters. Each chapter is written from the perspective of one of the two authors; nine are by Eric, while Leslie wrote seven, as well as the introduction.

A Song for Simeon, is a 37-line poem written in 1928 by American-English poet T. S. Eliot (1888–1965). It is one of five poems that Eliot contributed to the Ariel poems series of 38 pamphlets by several authors published by Faber and Gwyer. "A Song for Simeon" was the sixteenth in the series and included an illustration by avant garde artist Edward McKnight Kauffer. The poem's narrative echoes the text of the Nunc dimittis, a liturgical prayer for Compline from the Gospel passage. Eliot introduces literary allusions to earlier writers Lancelot Andrewes, Dante Alighieri and St. John of the Cross. Critics have debated whether Eliot's depiction of Simeon is a negative portrayal of a Jewish figure and evidence of anti-Semitism on Eliot's part. (more...)
