Sources needed for the sections analyzing Jewel's work!Klasovsky (talk) 14:25, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I agree. I tagged the article for this because the section on "Jewel's Apology of the Church of England" features unsourced and unverified analysis of his work, while only citing sections of the work itself. This is not how Wikipedia handles primary sources, especially theological works, which can easily be misinterpreted. Analysis and commentary should be based on what reliable sources say. One example is found in the "Sacramental theology" section. It describes his Eucharistic theology as being "somewhere between Luther's consubstantiation and the Roman Catholics' transubstantiation." But the quote from Jewel provided sounds like receptionism, which is much different from both consubstantiation and transubstantiation. Someone with access to scholarship on Jewel's Apology needs to review this article. Ltwin (talk) 19:16, 9 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
