The references used do not support the claims being made

No I assumed the 2018 study was referring to believers in Christ from a Muslim background which has been labelled as unreliable as you can see here WP:JOSHUAPROJECT. However when I looked at the three references given for the 12 to 15 million figure none of them mention it nor do they support the page numbers given in the reference tag. I suggest you look into this instead of labelling my edits as “disruptive”. @Durziil89 Griggorous (talk) 20:02, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

I am confused by a section that begins with the word "No". What's really going on here? HiLo48 (talk) 23:43, 25 December 2025 (UTC)

The discussion was initially made in the edit summaries but durziil89 has not responded besides in the edit summaries. Griggorous (talk) 00:05, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

I suggest you go through the three references given the 12 to 15 million claim is not mentioned in any of them:

1.Ibrahim, Ayman S.; Greenham, Ant (2018). Muslim Conversions to Christ: A Critique of Insider Movements in Islamic Contexts. Switzerland: Peter Lang Publisher. pp. 336–341.

The pages from 336 to 341 make no such claim

2.Radford, David (2019). Religious Identity and Social Change: Explaining Christian Conversion in a Muslim World. Taylor & Francis Group. pp. 104–105. ISBN 9780367869755.

From page 104 and 105 doesn't make the claim of 12 to 15 million in fact it talks about Kyrgyz christian converts and interviews with them

3.Muslim-Christian Relations: Historical and Contemporary Realities. Oxford University Press. pp. 2–10.

Does not discuss conversions of any sought if you look at the pages between 2 and 10.

These three sources where all added in a single edit by @Koshuri Sultan. They are all behind various pay walls (so I haven't checked them myself). If someone has access to these sources and could check that would solve this dipute. Rolluik (talk) 13:50, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

You can use websites like z-libary to access the sources. Griggorous (talk) 19:26, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

Rejection of Ephesus

if you are going to mention the effect of the rejection of Chakcedon then you should also mention the effect of the rejection of Ephesus ~2026-12147-71 (talk) 19:35, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

Taxonomy

The Church of the East and Anabaptists should be removed from the taxonomy of major denominational families in Christianity. The selection of churches and denominations included is entirely arbitrary. I suggest that only those churches and denominations that have served as state religions at some point in history be included: Anglican, Reformed, Lutheran, Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Oriental Orthodox.

Christianity is not a monotheistic religion.

Christianity does not have traits of what it would require to be a "monotheistic religion." This is due to the trinity and worship of Jesus as a man. There should be another label, maybe polytheistic or trinitarian. But, calling it monotheistic is an insult to actual monotheistic religions. ~2026-25088-48 (talk) 20:46, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

We go by what reliable sources say. Masterhatch (talk) 21:05, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

Trinity and many other sources will help you understand why you are wrong. And, as stated above, we go off of reliable sources, not personal opinions. Jtrevor99 (talk) 22:33, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

Christianity is monotheistic because it teaches the existence of one, and only one, supreme Creator God, inherited from Jewish tradition. While Christians believe in the Trinity Father, Son, and Holy Spirit this is defined as three distinct persons sharing one divine essence, rather than three separate gods. Wondersonder (talk) 07:50, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

it is monotheistic though? Im a Christian and we believe in a Triune God not three Gods ~2026-37432-48 (talk) 17:15, 30 June 2026 (UTC)

The Trinity is one being, so... Barumbarumba (talk) 17:23, 30 June 2026 (UTC)

As Francesca Stavrakopoulou stated, true monotheism does not exist. See also There’s no monotheism in the Bible on YouTube. tgeorgescu (talk) 04:30, 13 July 2026 (UTC)
