Talk:Chrislam (disambiguation)

message: There's a problem with this article. The statement that Chrislam was founded "two decades ago" is very unfortunate, because when will two decades become three decades? It is much better to state a specific year, i.e. 1986, or if such accurate data cannot be retrieved, state an approximate period or interval, such as "in the mid 1980's" or "at some point from 1983 to 1985" or even state a year but indicate uncertainty with a question mark, as in "1987(?)".--Peter Knutsen 13:12, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm interested in editing this if I know more.  In the meantime, without any recognized authority, I'm asking the Baha'i faith to surrender to this faith under reasoned terms.  I will also place proper remarks on other talk pages as what (if) to say becomes apparent to me.Julzes (talk) 10:58, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

message: So this is an entirely different Chrislam than that which bat-shit-crazy televangelist Jack Van Impe is constantly prattling on about?--172.190.5.113 (talk) 00:18, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Different? 

message: Some loony on TV today was pushing a conspiracy theory that Christian churches were becoming islamized.  He was flogging this book.  I don't know if it's worth mentioning here.  The conspiracy the guy had in mind involved everyone from Bill Clinton to Oprah Winfrey, along with a word-salad of sins including, for instance, "incontinence" as one of the sinful practices of this supposed miscegeny of a religion.  While I'm sure that this fringe Christian apologist has nothing to do with the actual subject of the article, he does seem to have appropriated its topic for his own gain.  I came to this page expecting to see some context for his lunacy.  I don't know if this meets whatever fringe/notability criteria you have. 71.203.54.169 (talk) 01:13, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Appropriation 

message: The religion of Chrislam is a relatively new religion (founded in the early 1970s) held by approximately 1,500 people (less than .00002% of the world's population), the adherents of which having made no significant impact outside of one (otherwise not notable) community in relationship to their faith or practice. I can find only a dozen or so sources of information, only three of which seem to have any level of academic and/or professional reliability. I am of the opinion that based on the lack of evidence present in this article and what I could find elsewhere, this religion has not met the notability requirement as a subject for an article. I have posted this concern with a request for feedback on the notice board. I will wait one week for any person to offer evidence of notability before I move forward on AFD.  Jim Reed (Talk)  22:27, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notability 

message: The term is a straightforward portmanteau of Christianity+Islam and is used in more than one sense.
"Chrislam" in Nigeria appears to be a very minor phenomenon, with adherents in the four(!) digits within a population in the eight (Yoruba) or low nine (Nigeria) digits.
Currently, google suggests its primary use is as a derogatory term in Evangelicalism. 
It may be best to turn this into a disambiguation page, pointing to 
Yoruba religious syncretism (or similar) and Evangelicalism and Islam (or similar).
