Question[edit]

Why no exemplary text from the document? And how long is it--a one-pager or so, or as many dozens of pages? [signed] FLORIDA BRYAN — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:588:c502:bb0b:e1b6:227b:376c:1ed1 (talk • contribs) 7:25, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

As editors we shouldn't pick the text we like, we'd have to rely on other reliable sources discussing it. As for how long it is, take a look yourself, it's linked at the bottom of the page. Doug Weller talk 17:20, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed tidying[edit]

The "List of signers" section is more than half the article and overbalances it. Given that there is already an 'external link' to a verified list of signatories at a reliable site (DTS), I propose removing the list from here in about a week. The article will be cleaner. Any objections?

Bear in mind that a corollary of keeping it is that we would also need to add an equivalent list for the "...Hermeneutics" statement, which would make the article even more unbalanced.

There is an External link to a list of signers in the article. I think that that is sufficient. Editor2020 (talk) 02:21, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Feline Hymnic (talk) 17:13, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Does the statement define what "The Bible" is?[edit]

Does the statement define what the Bible is? Presumably they are referring to the Protestant Bible (e.g. King James), but I wonder if they addressed that or simply took it as a given. Nowa (talk) 12:09, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
