resultkeep and possibly merge  Page Creation So I started the page This is probably going to get heated some people accusing me of saying the Course is a hoax and all that But I think this is an issue worthy of a page on Wikipedia because this is an important aspect of the Course This might be interesting and beneficial       This article needs to be merged with the ACIM article or deleted Its an issue worthy of a section of the A Course In Miracles page It definitely isnt worth a separate article If as you suggest Jesus was a source then it deserves to be part of that article If He wasnt then it doesnt deserve to be anywhere Either way it doesnt need a separate page      Well thats completely just an opinion on your part Another member and I have been discussing this on the main A Course In Miracles page We both agreed that this deserves its own page as the topic is too expansive to maintain within the already lengthy main ACIM page Have you taken a look at the other aspects of ACIM that have pages of their own This certainly deserves its own page as well And I might add that this page is not about whether I say the Course is channeledscribed from Jesus literally It is intended as the beginnings of an article about what is actually said in the Course and the different perspectives among students and teachers of the Course Whether I myself believe one way or another has no bearing on this topic or the page itself     The existing ACIM main article is already quite long and is intended more to be a summary of ACIM believe it or not  This topic is clearly a more in depth treatment of one aspect of the philosophy of ACIM than the main article and may require its own separate long article in order to treat this subject properly  My sense is why not give this article a couple of weeks to settle and develop before making any clear determination about where it belongs or doesnt belong      I concur The ACIM page is quite large and this issue is quite large    Removed Merge notice  I removed the merge notice So far it is three to one that this should remain its own article If someone thinks I should give it more time then please replace the merge notice     Exposing a hoax  Copied and pasted from discussion on main ACIM page  I think there is a huge misunderstanding here I have never used the word hoax It appears to me that you and some others who have discussed this with me seem to think I am attempting to expose the Course and now Catholicism as a hoax If you understand what I am talking about with regard to symbols then you understand that there is no intention to expose a hoax on my part   Is math a hoax to use  all the while there are no  characters out there in our physical world I could stand here and go Well you know math is all a lie a hoax because there really are no s Theyve lied to you Or I can say The human mind cannot comprehend the principles expressed in math without use of those symbols such as the symbol    This is all Im saying about the Course and Catholicism   If as I believe there was never literally a man who lived and was known as Jesus and Im not passionate about this topic one way or another actually then what I am saying is that even for the Catholic Church Jesus is ultimately just a symbol If the Catholic Church can be seen as math then Jesus is their  Do you get what I mean The symbol of Jesus stands for something that is very real though the symbol itself might not have actually existed in concrete physical reality   The Jesus in Catholicism and Im a former Catholic often stood for persecution suffering agony pain and there is little argument from most that Catholicism brought exactly this to the world in many ways Look at the Inquisition and all the other horrible things the church did And for them they did it in the name of Jesus For them Jesus symbolizes the need to do all these things The things they did in the name of the symbol are very real though the symbol might not have actually existed in concrete physical reality on this planet   What this is
