Main Article
[edit]"Meier's prophecies repeatedly blame Jews (whom he refers to as "gypsies") for future atrocities.[8]"
Source 8 doesn't load, could not identify source, should be removed unless source populates. 2600:8805:B1B:8000:6B3D:3D88:D3D2:5BD3 (talk) 02:52, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
- It's a book, we are free to use non-digital sources. Appears to be a perfectly decent source PARAKANYAA (talk) 05:05, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
- Per WP:PAYWALL: "Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access." The source is available in libraries and bookstores. JimRenge (talk) 05:15, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
Contact movie isn't neutral.
[edit]I haven't rephrased the sentence about Contact, but it should be part of the mention that the movie is not made by neutral parties. It's all true believers making a documentary about what they believe in. Anybody want to make an attempt to neutralize it? SchmuckyTheCat (talk) 04:29, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
- If no reliable source has reviewed and commented on the 1987 film, the most we can summarize are the film's principals, release date etc. But this new one is a different case. - LuckyLouie (talk) 12:11, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
Cherry picked and false information
[edit]Its not a religion he is not anti-Semitic. Wikipedia claims that Meier refers to Jewish people as "gypsies" giving the reader the impression that he is anti-Semitic. Search "Jew" on Meier's wiki site 50+ results and 95% of them the conversation is on "jew haters" "jew hatred" search "gypsies" 2 results on "hebrews" from "hebreons" from "gypsies" (15,000 years ago they were known as Gypsies!). Religion involves worship of deities, idols or sacred objects and or ritualistic practices which is the opposite of what Meier teaches. ~2025-42132-42 (talk) 19:31, 20 December 2025 (UTC)
False claim in the entry.
[edit]Quoted: "In interviews with author Gary Kinder, Meier admitted to using models to recreate scenes after his wife showed photos of incomplete models he thought he had destroyed by burning." I found the book (it's easy, anyone can download it after one quick googling), analysed, and this claim is not true, it is not admitted in the book. Másoknak vannak kétségei Meier hitelességével kapcsolatban, valaki állítja, hogy Meier felesége negatívokat adott át neki, amelyek modellekkel való kísérletezést mutatnak, de semmiképpen sem történik semmilyen beismerés a könyvben Meier részéről, ez az állítás tehát gyakorlatilag történelemhamisítást képez.
As a verification, I encourage you to download the book and do the analysis by yourself. Vendrel (talk) 15:20, 17 February 2026 (UTC)
He’s clearly confused about a lot
[edit]"Meier claims to be the seventh reincarnation after six prophets common to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam: Enoch, Elijah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Immanuel (Jesus), and Muhammad." This should be edited to reflect that he also apparently believes Jesus is a prophet common to Judaism and Christianity. He is not; he is a prophet in Islam and not usually portrayed as a prophet in Christianity although it is a more defensible position. ~2026-39107-71 (talk) 16:30, 11 July 2026 (UTC)
