Lambs of Christ

[edit]

Observation: The_Lambs_of_Christ WP URL redirects to this page, yet there's not a single reference to LoC; that seems like quite the oversight. Doug Grinbergs (talk)

[edit]

I do not see how the page is related to the image of "lipoma excision" included PietDuPreez (talk) 19:40, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There's no such image on this page. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:10, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Tryptofish: I've seen complaints about images on three pages now. I think there might be a bug with the auto previews of articles. Iskandar323 (talk) 20:28, 7 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

John E. List

[edit]

Perhaps this article should make mention of John E. List, a devout Lutheran, who murdered members of his family, supposedly in order to save them from going to Hell.2603:6010:4E42:500:7C27:ABE8:CC5E:97A7 (talk) 20:37, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at our page on him, and although it was religiously-motivated murder, it wasn't really terrorism, which is intended to instill terror in other people. --Tryptofish (talk) 20:53, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ku Klux Klan

[edit]

Although there is a section about the KKK, the article does not explain why it is considered a Christian terrorist organization. The text says, "the 1915 Klan espoused an explicitly Protestant terrorist ideology, partially basing its beliefs on a "religious foundation" in Protestantism and targeting Jews and Catholics." It's more likely they attacked them because of nativism, rather than doctrinal difference. In fact African Americans, who were mostly Protestants were also major targets of the KKK.

Religious terrorist groups, such as al Qaeda, convert and recruit people they see as infidels. There's no evidence the KKK ever did this. Nor is there evidence that they had a core religious doctrine. After all, they accepted members from different Protestant faiths. Protestantism could probably best be seen as part of ethnic identity, just as it is in Northern Ireland. TFD (talk) 01:16, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Explaining my revert

[edit]

I made this edit, in which I reverted what I consider some entirely good faith edits: [1], so I want to explain why. This page has a very long history of disputes. It is necessary to go through the talk page archives to see it. One of the most long-debated issues is whether or not to have a full list of things that happened in the past century or so, that might be considered CT, and the eventual consensus (one I initially was against, but came around to supporting, I'll just say for the record), is that we should not have a wall-of-shame listing of many examples, but instead, focus on what academic sources say about the topic as a whole. So the two paragraphs I removed, I removed partly for that reason.

The other issue is that there is a consensus that, to be listed by name, any act of CT must be reasonably notable, and must be unquestionably an example of religiously-motivated terrorism, not some terrorism that was primarily motivated by something else but happened also to involve Christianity. The Evers murder was clearly motivated by racial bigotry, so it was really racial terrorism much more than it was CT. And while the Phineas Priesthood seem to me to satisfy the criteria to be included here, Thody appears insufficiently notable to have a bio page about him. --Tryptofish (talk) 00:26, 12 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
