Talk:Margaret Mary Alacoque

message: From what I remember there was an image of her on this page. Anyone has any idea where it went? It would be nice to get one again. Thanks. History2007 (talk) 03:29, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I see that there is a now a beautiful image at the lead to the entry. I have to quesiton, however, if it is really of St. Margaret Mary. It was painted 150 years before she was declared a saint, and the clothing worn in the image is nothing like that of the religious habit she wore. My wager is that it was painted as some form of homage to the Blessed Mother or perhaps, though unlikely, to St. Gertrude the Great, an earlier proponent of this devotion. Any one else's thoughts?

message: This page currently has the character of uncritical hagiography. It would be interesting to include more medical/psychiatric analysis, for example the relationship between her cardiac-related visions and her history of rheumatic fever, and the extent of her self-harming.

thread_title: Point of View

message: I think this page should be moved from "Marguerite Marie Alacoque" to "St. Margaret Mary" or "St. Margaret Mary Alacoque" or "St. Marguerite Marie Alacoque". She has been beatified in the Catholic Church, and is most commonly referred to with the nominal prefix. As an American, however, I cannot say if it would be best to title the page with the French or Anglicized spelling.

thread_title:  Move to St. Margaret Mary? 

message: I remember as a student that the nuns regularly pushed the devotion on everyone,  often with prayer cards, but also during the annual drive for the missions in Africa, when the prize for successful collectors was a plastic-framed lithograph of the Sacred Heart.  Parents hung it on their walls, not out of devotion, but out of pride in their children, and embarassment if Father Pastor should ever come by and not see all the expected religious bric-a-brac.  Joyce wasn't commenting on the popularity of the devotion, but perhaps only the ubiquity of the icon.  This article is very slanted, with POV problems everywhere.  --Vicedomino (talk) 18:33, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

message: It would be unfortunate if these two topics were merged. While St. Margaret Mary received the vision from Christ, many people interested in the First Friday Devotion have no knowledge that of St. Margaret Mary. 104.136.114.20 (talk) 22:33, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
