I ask that you refrain from making threats. My intent is not to defame Value Line and it's majority owner, but rather to accurately describe the events as they continue to unfold. I have offered 3rd party citations whenever possible. I am more than willing to discuss any differences we may have here, so that an accurate record be kept. 
I hope others with factual information regarding Value Line and its majority owner can join the discussion without fear of reprisal.

How much a screen name means in reference to its owner usually depends on number of accounts, and length of use.

Talk:Dominion theology

message: Even if a citation is found, I think it's irresponsible to spread the view of dominion theology as "Christian Sharia" in the article's lead, as Sharia is the Muslim equivalent of Jewish Halakha and, like Halakha, does not necessarily imply theocracy - though Halakha does influence Israeli law and many Middle Eastern governments base themselves on Sharia. You can certainly say Halakha inherently demands theocracy, but most Jews don't view it that way, and many Muslims do not see Sharia that way; the issue is extremely complex and there is too much simplistic misinformation about it being spread by the far right. Any mention of comparisons to Sharia should be made further down in the article, IMO, and should be given as citations from particular notable individuals.

message: I'm still not completely happy with this article's title. I would have gone with the more conventional Ifni War were it not that the conflict was never popularly known as such (or at all!). Spanish-Moroccan War seems a little heavy for a conflict in which no declaration of war was made and neither country invaded the other. 
But the current title has its problems as well. Ifni, for instance, was a distinct colony from Spanish Sahara. Secondly, the war lasted into 1958. 
Any suggestions?
