Mother church[edit]

Why is the church of Scotland tha "mother church"? A.Z. 22:26, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As noted in Presbyterianism, the Presbyterian churches in North America (and American mission churches in Korea), Ireland, Africa, and Oceania trace their histories to the Scottish church. Unlike other Reformed churches (e.g., Dutch, Swiss, French, Hungarian, RCA, etc), they consider themselves spiritual "descendants" of John Knox. Flycandler 15:54, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thank you :-) A.Z. 02:36, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dead link[edit]

Footnote currently numbered 24 has a broken link to a PDF file [1]. I believe a similar file is located at [2]. Perhaps someone more familiar with the history can apply this update, if it is actually valid. 24.57.210.141 (talk) 08:58, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, same problem for footnote 23, and same solution.[3] 24.57.210.141 (talk) 09:04, 21 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
