Defend topic

Should we, in addition to Requests, Translate, etc... have a Defend section for perrenial hot-button issues (Jerusalem would probably be permanantly on this list) that need backing on the talk page or in curbing edit wars? Valley2city 06:22, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

No. See WP:CANVASS. Please don't behave like the Eastern Europeans, whatever the Arabs may do. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 16:53, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Cannot add to this "Todo" page?

I tried adding this request to the WikiProject_Judaism/Todo page, but it won't save there. Instead, it keeps saving my addition to the WikiProject_Judaism/Todo2 page. I have no idea why or how.

Book of Ezekiel - Why is there no discussion of some of the most famous and perplexing passages in the entire Hebrew Bible? Ezekiel complained about people burning their children to death. "And you took your sons and your daughters, whom you had borne to me, and these you sacrificed to them to be devoured. Were your harlotries so small a matter that you slaughtered my children and delivered them up as an offering by fire to them?" (Ezek. 16:20-21.) The Book of Ezekiel then states that God purposely gave bad laws which discouraged life and, by some interpretations, these laws led the people to believe that they should offer gifts of their first born by fire. This contradicts the text of the Torah as we know it, and all of Jewish and Christian interpretation of it. Nonetheless, Ezekiel talks about this as a point of view apparently accepted as truthful by at least some major segment of the population. See the discussion page for my start on this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.20.50.75 (talk) 03:05, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
