Pantheism and NPOV

[edit]

I don't want to assert or suggest that the details about pantheism in the introduction are erroneous or exaggerated as I'm not an expert on the subject and I don't have time to do in-depth research on this, but I think language could be forged that is more in line with the Neutral Point of View policy.

The existing text is too matter-of-fact. Church theologists did this? Was this strictly a Christian phenomenon? Were they "attacking" pantheism or investigating it? Maybe arguing against pantheism? Was there a motivation for this attack or argument? And how did such (presumably) scholarly people as clergy get the definition of pantheism wrong? There's a lot here that raises more questions than answers which doesn't feel appropriate for the introduction. HistorianFromSyracuse (talk) 04:06, 18 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Pantheism "is primarily a polemical term", so there are not many pantheists in Ancient history. Source: Lagrée, Jacqueline (2005). "Pantheism". In Lacoste, Jean-Yves (ed.). Encyclopedia of Christian Theology. Vol. 3. Routledge. p. 1181. ISBN 978-1-57958-332-3. Retrieved 23 January 2026.
Thomson (2008: 54) fails verification. It concerns Spinozism, not Ancient theology. tgeorgescu (talk) 22:21, 4 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

NPOV on Heading definition

[edit]

Edit definition to "supreme holy One, intelligent sovereign creator of the complex system of Universe with its living mortals, original source of life, merciful omnipotent ruler of natural law, and primary venerated figure by vast number of believing mankind above the Earth."

There is a user made an objection against my contribution on POV matters, any comment would be considered. Andeubn (talk) 19:17, 21 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

Need a reason to change from what’s already there, so what was wrong with it? What is wrong about God is usually viewed as the supreme being, creator, and principal object of faith? Hyperbolick (talk) 21:06, 19 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
I don't know about "object of faith", but I thought that most depictions of a monotheistic God portray him as a creator deity, and as the main character of their various creation myths. Dimadick (talk) 10:01, 20 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Objective reality?

[edit]

Objective reality is mentioned in the existence section, but it doesn’t link to another article. ~2026-17842-44 (talk) 09:35, 6 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I found a trademark argument article that immediately addressed my curiosity. ~2026-17842-44 (talk) 09:46, 6 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
