text: That's where the whole suspension of disbelief comes in to play.  The network decided that rather than go for a realistic experience (a la Survivor), it's better to minimize potentially distracting visuals.  →Bobby← 16:27, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Why does someone keep changing it to prayer stick?  I've never heard it called that in the show, where it actually is called a Jesus stick.  Is it because you don't want to see the word "Jesus" in the article?  That's kind of immature.  4.84.8.37 17:50, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It got called a prayer stick in this peisode. 193.217.148.50 20:24, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

text: *I would vote for calling it the Scripture Stick or Prayer Stick, I certainly don't have a problem with the word "Jesus" (and I haven't edited anything to do with the stick so far, so it wasn't me that changed it), but it wasn't a "Jesus Stick", that is just a cutesy way for some people on the island to refer to it.  I would much prefer it be called a prayer stick or a Scripture Stick --particularly Scripture Stick (also used in the show)-- because those names are accurate without being cute.  Also, accusations of immaturity are unnecessary to discuss this issue.  Riverbend 20:35, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Just a note, it is referred to as "scripture stick" on the Eko page, where it talks about his death/funeral. Riverbend 20:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

text: I went ahead and changed it, because (I think) that is what it was called in this episode, and that is what it is called on the Eko page.  If anyone feels strongly, change it or discuss it. . . Riverbend 20:45, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think being cute or not is the least bit relevant.  If there's dispute over the name, I'd say go with whatever the show has called it most often, and that seems to be "Jesus stick".  --Milo H Minderbinder 20:55, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Whatever is decided, we should try to make it consistent throughout the articles that mention it.  Riverbend 20:57, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If you don't like the term, you might have to write to the creators of the show.  After all, they're the ones who came up with it and first used it.  In an epsiode summary, I think it's reasonable to use the term used in that episode.  But it's certainly going to get called the Jesus stick in other articles.  -Milo H Minderbinder 14:04, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have a problem with terms used by the creators, perhaps I wasn't being clear in articulating my concern.  Here is my main thought, someone who has never seen the show could read the entry and not have any idea what the heck a Jesus Stick is.  It is a nickname for the stick, we know what it is because we have seen the show, but this is something that will be read by folks who have never seen the show and wouldn't necessarily recognize it.  For an encyclopedia, it just seems more professional to use a term that is accessible to those "others" who don't watch the show.  If the general view is Jesus Stick, then fine, but there is no harm in a bit of discussion.  Riverbend 16:03, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
