[edit]This is a note to inform all interested watchers of this article that Wikisource has chosen the Branch Davidians and Waco Siege as their Collaboration of the Week.
This means that we are spending this week collecting, copying and formatting Public Domain documents related to the church and its 1993 siege. This includes speeches by David Koresh, Federal documents in the aftermath of the siege, the charges against Lon Horiuchi and the surviving church members, and early church documents whose copyright have expired.
We would encourage you all to come help us, if you have any questions, feel free to leave a question on my talk page - either on Wikisource or Wikipedia!
I hope to see some of you there, helping us document the primary sources for future research and historical analysis!

Mega-HUH!!?
[edit]I don't comprehend the contents of the article. It is very confused and incoherent. F.ex.:
- In 1937, Ben and Lois joined the Christian Church, and were active and faithful
Why not Fred and Wilma? "Ben and Lois" doesn't reconnect to the earlier text good enough - providing a red line - the text "In 1937, Ben and Lois" should be:
- In 1937, Benjamin Boden and his wife Lois
(that's an easy one, but) then:
- the Christian Church, what "Christian Church"? There's not just one, there are 3-4 kinds of orthodoxes, many kinds of catholics, and myriads of protestants.
Now the real questions that foremost the introduction should answer are:
- did Boyden cause or partake in the Branch Davidian schism, or was he just a reorganizer of the already split-off branch?
- why did the schism/branch occur? Was it for new revelations that weren't accepted by the other 7DA:s, or was it for other issues?
- what was the "Rod" stuff about? Was it his own revelation or was it a revelation on a theme that others partook in before?
