Talk:Syriac Orthodox Church

message: Ah, there's the rub.  There are actually two groups who lay claim to 'Syrian Orthodox'.  One is part of the Oriental Orthodox Communion, and calls itself the "Syrian Orthodox Church".  The other is part of the Eastern Orthodox Communion and calls itself the "Antiochian Orthodox Church"--although they called themselves the "Syrian Orthodox Church" until fairly recently.

thread_title: Should this article be merged with Antiochian Orthodox Church? Aren't these just two different names for the same thing?

message: There's no mention of Jacobite in the current article. Is that something different? Because a lot of redirects come from Jacobite Orthodox Church. I've only heard of the church from a friend who said she was Syrian Jacobite.
The article looks quite different to when i last looked back in August last year , where's that information gone? T 05:20, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Mention of Jacobite

message: It looks like some major reorganisation is needed here.
* The Syrian Orthodox Church has renamed itself the Syriac Orthodox Church.
* Antiochene Orthodox Church is usually used to describe the Arabic-speaking church which is in communion with the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople.
* 'Jacobite' was initially a partisan label given to the Syriac-speaking Christians who broke away from Constantinople. Syriac Orthodox dislike this label. However, Syriac Orthodox in Kerala tend to use it as the main way of distinguishing their church from others.
I am new here, so I do not quite know the best way to go about changing this. I'll have a try: let me know what you all think.

message: There is also an unrelated Assyrian Church of the East.
The Assyrian Church of The East is related to the Syriac Orthodox Church since the founders of the Assyrian Church left the Syriac Orthodox Church sometime in the 4th or 5th century and founded the East Syriac Church also known as The Assyrian Church of The East.--Sargon 19:10, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: The Assyrian Church of The East

message: The link to the Assyrian Church of the East wiki has "(Nestorian)" before it, yet that page denies that the Assyrian Church of the East is actually Nestorian.  I don't really know enough about this issue to try and fix that, but it needs to be fixed one way or the other. - Matt Montgomery
The Assyrian Church of the East (or Church of the East) was founded in Assyria between the 1st and 3rd centuries AD. Nestorius lived in the late 5th century AD. His followers fled to the Sassanid Empire of which Assyria (known as Assuristan by the Persians) was part. There was some form of synthesis between the two doctrines as they had similarities, although the Assyrian Church and its doctrine was much older. So strictly, the Assyrian Church of the East is doctrinally different to the teachings of Nestorius, although to Europeans right through the Middle Ages up until the early 20th century those Assyrians who were members of the Assyrian Church of the East were labelled Nestorians, including those Assyrians who broke from the Assyrian Church and entered into communion with the Roman Catholic Church in the 17th century and were renamed (and racially and geographically misnamed) Chaldean Catholics by The Vatican. Nestorian just became a lazy and inaccurate generic term used to describe all sorts of Eastern Christians. But after the 14th century AD when the Assyrian Church of the East-Nestorian Church was wiped out in Central Asia, China, Mongolia, everywhere except the Assyrian homeland in northern Iraq, northeast Syria, southeast Turkey and northwest Iran (as well as Kerala in [[India), it was used to describe mainly ethnic Assyrians who belonged to the; Assyrian Church of the East, Chaldean Catholic Church and even sometimes Syriac Orthodox Church.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.26.31.70 (talk) 15:39, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Assyrian Church of the East 

message: *"..."these terms are misleading, and not appreciated by the some of the church today" Precisely why these terms are misleading would provide information rather than a judgment. "not appreciated" is a euphemistic vulgarism: find a more informative phrase.
*"The main idea of the Syrian Orthodox Church is love. In other words love conquers all, it doesn't matter how old you are, what color skin you have, what religion you are, what you believe in, etc. Every man and woman should find love and be peaceful." This is fatuous drum-beating.
*" A wise man once said, "Love is an endless mystery, for it has nothing to explain it." Such greeting-card sentiment tells little about the Syriac Orthodox Church.
*"It is against some churches out of the Middle East to marry one from a different church." Lacks precision. What is the Syriac Orthodox ordinance on this subject? Quote it.
*"Some estimate that the church has about 5.500.000 members globally..." Some estimate indeed. This is lazy. Source a figure and mention the source.
Please consider the above in lieu of one of those lazy "clean-up" tags. --Wetman 09:51, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  If you had not seen something it doesn't mean it does not Exist!!!! Schism separated the Church and the non primary sources cites the Origin, The use of Template Leaders depends on the Topic.

While Editing Religious Articles WP:RNPOV should be maintained.
Wikipedia articles on history and religion draw from a religion's sacred texts as well as from modern archaeological, historical, and scientific sources.   " According to Saint Luke, "The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch" (New Testament, ) " and this church is branched from Church of Antioch cited by non primary sources. For eg: IF X is the mother of Y, Then S adopted Y, X is still the mother of Y with traits adopted from S. Similarly Established and Founded have different meaning...!

thread_title: Ethno-linguistic issues

message: The way origins is presented in the current version of the lead section does not satisfy WP:NPOV: the lead section presents it as if though the church was founded in 1st century, and attempts to disclose how the autocephalous patriarcate was established centurieds later. I must commend the POV pushers' persistance at this point, though, because I am getting quite tired of the issue. PPEMES (talk) 00:31, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: When a schism occurs, each side tends to portray themselves as the original branch and the others as the schismatics. But surely to be NPOV one would have to see both as separate continuations of the original tradition, now each going their own way. In the infobox right now, the source for the claim that the Syriac Orthodox Church branched from the Church of Antioch is the Catholic encyclopedia newadvent.org, which may be reliable for many facts but is surely not neutral on the question of schismatic churches. It is accurate to say there was a church in Antioch from the first century, and that in the sixth century a dispute led to a split. But to be neutral, it should be recognised that both sides claim to be the heirs of the ancient tradition. This issue comes up on other Christianty articles, for example recently at History of the Catholic Church. FrankP (talk) 14:10, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
thread_title: Origins in lead section as well as in infobox by now

message: Please Read This:
In the case of beliefs and practices, Wikipedia content should not only encompass what motivates individuals who hold these beliefs and practices, but also account for how such beliefs and practices developed. Wikipedia articles on history and religion draw from a religion's sacred texts as well as from modern archaeological, historical, and scientific sources.
Some adherents of a religion might object to a critical historical treatment of their own faith because in their view such analysis discriminates against their religious beliefs. Their point of view can be mentioned if it can be documented by relevant, reliable sources, yet note that there is no contradiction. NPOV policy means that Wikipedia editors ought to try to write sentences like this: "Certain Frisbeetarianists (such as the Rev. Goodcatch) believe This and That and consider those to have been tenets of Frisbeetarianism from its earliest days. Certain sects who call themselves Ultimate Frisbeetarianists—influenced by the findings of modern historians and archaeologists (such as Dr. Investigate's textual analysis and Prof. Iconoclast's carbon-dating work)—still believe This, but no longer believe That, and instead believe Something Else."
Several words that have very specific meanings in studies of religion have different meanings in less formal contexts, e.g., fundamentalism, mythology, and (as in the prior paragraph) critical. Wikipedia articles about religious topics should take care to use these words only in their formal senses to avoid causing unnecessary offence or misleading the reader. Conversely, editors should not avoid using terminology that has been established by the majority of the current reliable and relevant sources on a topic out of sympathy for a particular point of view, or concern that readers may confuse the formal and informal meanings. Details about particular terms can be found at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch.

Please do note that in article and in Infobox its Clearly given as "Branched from	Church of Antioch" and "Independence: 518 A.D./6th Cent."(If those statements are missing then this is clearly violates WP:RNPOV) And NO CURRENT CHURCHES CAN Claim THAT THEY ARE THE 'TRUE' CHURCH OF ANTIOCH (like WP:PEACOCK) but they have the same Parent and are Sister churches as schism occured, Even the Greek Orthodox Church is originated in First Century but Established in AD 518 due to Schism. This does not mean that they are a new Sect or Religion without any Roots but their Parent Churches(Branched From a Single Root) are Same. So Branched is Clearly used. Also, According to Christianity Jesus Christ founded the Church. If you refer The Article Catholic Church Then you can see the Archived discussions. In Infobox its given (Founder Jesus, according to sacred tradition), (Origin	1st century Holy Land, Roman Empire) The Roman Catholic "Church" was not really in effect as an organization in the first couple hundred years of the Christian Church, And Please do Note that Persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire, The Church was later Established after the persecution was stoped, But it doesn't Mean that the Catholic Church never existed before its Establishment, There is a difference between Established and Founded.

There are also differences for Origin.

message: User:Mugsalot You are using false sources that do not refer to the claims in the text. All youractivity in the article, it's all about just defending a false claim regarding that the Syriac Orthodox Church is "historically known as the Assyrian Apostolic Church". You keep revert changes even though the source does not match with the statement written in the article. Please discuss this issue and back-up the claim.

message: There is a discussion over at WP:RSN regarding the use of a certain book as a source for the article The Poem of the Man-God. Part of the discussion involves the commendation of the book in question by a Bishop of a branch of the Syriac Orthodox Church. Some editors are questioning his existence, thus bringing into question the credibility of the book itself. It seems there is sufficient evidence to show this Bishop is an authentic Bishop of the Syriac Orthodox Church or one of its branches, but some disagree. This is an informal request for comments, since some of you that participate on this talk page may have additional information pertaining to that part of the discussion. For those interested, instead of reading the entire thread, you can begin reading from near the end where I summarize the three remaining issues of contention and arguments, with a paragraph for each.

message: The current year on info-box shows 518, However the source given(pg. 58) states that church emerged as an independent community after the council of Chalcedon. In 512 Severus Patriarch was consecrated and in 518 he was deposed for not accepting the council, the Syriac church did not reconsecrate him again on 518. In 519 new Greek Orthodox Patriarch was appointed. So requesting comments on the same. J.Stalin S  Talk 16:05, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
