Talk:Religion of peace

message: As the list of example religions keep being edited, maybe we should consider not giving examples in the opening statement?

replies: text: There are only 2 religions sourced in the article, Christianity and Islam. All others were unsourced, as far as I have seen. Therefore we should keep these two in the intro per MOS:INTRO and WP:VERIFY. After somebody comes with a source for another major religion, we can add it there, why not, but for now I do not see a reason to discuss a "list of example religions" because we have only these two.--Ioannes Pragensis (talk) 17:20, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

text: Well, I think that it does not need a discussion when somebody adds unsourced material (or - as it is in your case, sorry) when somebody removes sourced material. The Wikipedia discussions exist in order to clear real problems and difficulties, not to discuss everything possible for discussion sake.Ioannes Pragensis (talk) 18:46, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

message: Hindu(Sanatan) religion is most peaceful because the only motive of this religion is to follow Dharma and karma .

message: More of a question than a request,
While I understand that the term has been used for Islam most of the time, the article talks Islam and Christianity, yet the criticism section only talks about Islam. This makes the article structure a little absurd, so can someone familiar with the topic clarify whether this is because the term is simply criticized more when it is used for Islam, or because it is used for Islam most of the time? If this is the case, I think appropriate material describing this should be added in my opinion.
I guess another option would be that this is the work of POV editors but I haven't seen much evidence of that in that section. Uness232 (talk) 14:41, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  The criticism section 

message: I want to edit the whole thing because there it is written a specific religion is a peaceful religion but here i want to edit is that no religion is good or bad. The thing that makes a religion good is what they teach their followers and if their followers are peacefull then the religion itself is peacefull but at the same time if a religions follower are terrorists mostly then it can't be called a peacefull religion.

message: Just happened to look at this article. The lead sentence says the term has been applied to Christianity and Islam, but the article text seems to talk only about Islam. In the text there is one passing menntion of Christianity. There is no mention anywhere in the article of other religions such as Hinduism and Judaism. IMO this article should either be expanded so that it discusses multiple religions, or else the title should be changed to somehow reflect that it is talking about Islam. -- MelanieN (talk) 17:29, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess the problem is that most usage of this term - positive or otherwise - is about Islam. This might be because of recentism, but I'm not necessarily convinced that such expansion can be made, in the total absence of sources. I'm more inclined towards your second suggestion but I'm really not sure what an appropriate title would be. Uness232 (talk) 20:34, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

text: The only time I see this term as a standalone thing is in lazy comment sections under stories where the killer is Muslim. It's usually "quoted", as if to "throw it back" at some archetypal Muslim they heard or read use the snippet in a complete sentence somewhere, or just because other bigoted trolls "quote" it. In this mostly peaceful world, most religions are of peace, and most have said as much in various words, but as a fragmentary slogan/meme/shitpost, yeah, it would be wise and just to mercilessly slaughter this article before it grows even more familiar to normal people.

replies: text: I think I agree, just looking at it from the perspective of "what is someone that landed on this page looking for?" or "what does this offer that other pages don't?", I'm short of answers, so I'm okay with an AFD. I'm not sure if I should be the one starting it though. Uness232 (talk) 01:28, 3 September 2021 (UTC)

text: The "See also" section is now 60% Christian instead of 0%. If that seems unfair, blame math, I tried to split five evenly! It's not the great fix deletion could be, but it's something. InedibleHulk (talk) 23:22, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Uness232, MelanieN, I agree with InedibleHulk - if we turn this article into article about Islam specifically, then, you risk to make it irrelevant one which fails on notability, and which could eventually qualify for AfD, because the phrase in that context is just a meme, one often used in diatribes against Muslims as pointed by InedibleHulk.--౪ Santa ౪99° 09:58, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

text: By the way, Uness232, InedibleHulk, will you argue your position if I propose AfD ?--౪ Santa ౪99° 10:06, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course! I was planning to start it myself, but I was quite busy and so I forgot, so thanks for reminding me!  Uness232 (talk) 12:11, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

text: Probably. InedibleHulk (talk) 22:50, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  AfD might be the solution. A complete rewriting to describe the pacifistic or peaceful nature of many world religions might make an acceptable article, but it its current state - basically a collection of quotes of nice things and not-nice things people have said about Islam - it should not be here. Ping me if someone launches an AfD; I will comment there.  -- MelanieN (talk) 01:56, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  - I have XfD article, so it's open for discussion and arguments.--౪ Santa ౪99° 22:27, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
