That's theologically 100% wrong

No, no, no, the Golden rule is not a law of reciprocity in Christianity, please, remove that, because it's theologically wrong, or use another word to explain. A reciprocity law would mean that you do the good when you meet the good, and give back the evil when you meet the evil. That's 100% the opposite of the Jesus teaching. You have to give back the good when you meet the evil, it's in the Gospel. Wikipedia shouldn't use ambiguous expressions, and be precise, or theologically 100% right when doing an article about religions.

Golden ratio?

In the "Not to be confused with..." at the top of the article, is Golden Ratio really something likely to be confused? I guess any article starting with "Golden" should be added then. Nikolaih^☎️📖 08:20, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Removal of Scientology

May I kindly ask the entry for Scientology to be removed as they’re not a religion. Firstly, they pertain persistently being one to continue to operate as the criminal organisation that they are (targeting psychologically sensitive people, then exploiting them financially and emotionally towards a subsequent debt dependency, persistent tax evasion, harassment and bullying of dissidents and former members, please also read on here the section under ‘The Hole’) so their religious association is a mere smokescreen (and for tax relief purposes in the US).

Further, only the Scientologists on the entire entry of religions are unable to give straight answers to fairly standard questions, such as: - what are your praying rituals? - where are your places of worship?

Their inclusion here gives them a mere legitimacy they simply neither warrant nor deserve. Indeed, Wiki has banned them recently to edit their pages on here for repeatedly aggressively editing it online with their own policies, no?

Abrahamic religions

Hello! I noticed that the section for Abrahamic religions says to look at the article relating to it. However 1, that article is very broad and covers Abrahamic religions in general and 2, it makes no mention of the golden rule from what I saw. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 01:37, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Someone fix Christianity section

The versions of the Bible employed in the article are not indicated, and are also not versions which are in general use. Jonpaulusa (talk) 20:16, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
