Talk:Charles de Foucauld

message: Olorin3k, However the language developed in the article on the Senussi movement in Wikipedia (which is a different discussion altogether) it does not belong here describing the immediate attackers of Br. Charles.
You are missing the point.  You are intent on changing an accurate description of the killer of Brother Charles into one loaded with religious overtones of Muslim against Christian.  The killer of Br. Charles was a teenager in a panic assisting what we would refer to as a "bandit" maybe even looking for ransom.  The backdrop, as the article states, was World War and North African Colonialism.  Famine in that region at the time had another part in the tensions.  Never was it as simple and black and white as a Holy War of "religio-political" or "insurgents"  or your first edit of "jihad".  No, they were marauders by all accounts who were connected to a tribal faction aligned against the French with soldiers and adherents of Senussi from Libya.
You bring up the recent assassination of Christian workers in Afghanistan as an example of your religio-political jihadists at work throughout history against the Christian.
The interesting thing about that example is that it reveals your bias right there of the prism of how you see these events. The only edits, the only contributions you've seen fit to offer this article - that you are obsessed with reverting to - is the language of jihad and holy war to fit your world view which I challenge you is the opposite of the spirit and example of Charles de Foucauld.
It is not mistaken that "jihad" and all the misconceptions of how Islam and the Koran view the term was manifestly NOT developed or an acceptable description of the justifications of the indigenous uprisings against the colonial French.  There were by far other motives of the Senussi and Bedouin for driving out the western European and if they were bound and organized through viewing the European as an "infidel", that is hardly surprising considering a history that stretches back through the Crusades.  What the Senussi purported as a sect of Islam on the call for "jihad" is not consistent with its own alignment with Germany - a Christian colonial power.  So I wouldn't seriously consider their movement driven by it whatever the founders revelry in the term - undeveloped as it had to be if it allowed for collusion with "infidels".
"Aboriginal Islam"? I don't know how to begin to approach the disdain you have for this topic right there.
:"It seems that your eyes subjectively perceive inflammatorily where no inflammation is to be found objectively. I suggest you do not insist that everything conform to your own apparent agenda to force the times of Frere Charles into a mold of your own making."
The only thing I insist on is that this article retain it's integrity as a Wikipedia entry with as close to the spirit of the subject as possible without outside geopolitical/religious overtones injected into it. Your original edit of "jihad" in your first foray to the description tipped my "subjective" perception that your purposes here are to inflame whether conscious or not and you have shown little interest in the subject matter for it's own sake.

consider.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.207.21 (talk) 10:59, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Léon Foucault's name spelling is with LT. No disambiguation tag is needed here, perhaps, but I've added de Foucauld's name to the FoucaulT disamb. page (that existed), to address your concern.darthbunk pakt dunft 22:01, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: There is a wiktionary page about wiktionary:religious#Noun (basically, a monk, in de Foucauld's case, a Trappist). Not all monks are  priests and the same the other way around. But yes, some can.darthbunk pakt dunft 22:01, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

message: in reference to the Archbishop of Arles, I think Monseigneur is the French title where we in English would say "bishop".  In English it is ambiguous and can be confusing.  I suggest it be removed here. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 23:52, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
