Given that this subject is one of high public interest of late, and there is such an enormous amount of often brash ignorance going around about it, I have released this same material at Wikipedia where the material will currently enjoy high traffic.

Wow, that's a goodly chunk of material, and with a fair amount of serious research behind it. J. Noel Chiappa 13:30, 16 April 2008 (CDT)

Thanks, Noel. I need to finish up the article, the sections on Wright, when I can find the time, or if someone else has the literature, feel free. Stephen Ewen 22:42, 18 April 2008 (CDT)
the stuff on Muslims is not related to this mainstream Protestant church, so I dropped it. It's leftover from Wikipedia. Richard Jensen 23:12, 25 April 2008 (CDT)
I myself wrote it--I wrote this entire article. The material you removed crucially contextualizes Trinity, according to Speller and others. Speller explicitly states that the material you removed are Trinity's contextual backdrops, as I iterated in the material. I'm going to revert your removal and addition but hope you will consider how to incorporate what you added to what I wrote. To understand the Africentrism of this church, one must understand these backdrops. You really should carefully read this entire article so far and carefully study the entirety of the cited sources, as I have, before jumping in too much. Stephen Ewen 04:02, 26 April 2008 (CDT)
