Talk:George Selwyn (Bishop of New Zealand)

message: "In 1855 the Maori war interrupted the progress of civilisation and Christianity among the natives, and caused an almost universal apostasy."
The terminology here is entirely antiquated. The so-called "Maori war" is now known as the Land Wars, or - among revisionist historians - the New Zealand Wars. Talk of the progress of "civilisation" would raise eyebrows among New Zealand historians, who know that the spread of European culture and Christianity was only tangentially related to acceptance of de facto British sovereignty. The New Zealand Maori have not been called "natives" in any reputable history since the 1960s, and "apostasy" may be an appropriate term to apply to the infamous Emperor Julian, but it is hardly applicable to the inherently syncretistic mixture of traditional animism and Christian spirituality that invigorated tribal Maori in the 19th century. In fact, I struggle to— find anything about this sentence that isn't offensive. Even the date looks suspiciously exact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.111.220.10 (talk • contribs) 19:22, 13 November 2007

thread_title: Antiquated

message: I think this article is better than start class, and I'm glad to have learned about this missionary bishop who seems to have inspired at least two other missionaries honored on calendars within the Anglican communion. It would also be interesting to see whether Bishop Selwyn inspired other Welsh (Lichfield) or English (Cambridge) explorers or missionaries in his final years. BTW, I didn't change the citation needed note in the "Final Years" section, but suspect that either his own health or that of someone in his family caused this bishop Selwyn to accept the Lichfield position.Jweaver28 (talk) 19:40, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Edmund Grindal

message: The belief that that Grindal was born at Hensingham cannot be supported by the evidence shown in the article published in the Transactions of the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society; "Archbishop Grindal's birthplace: Cross Hill, St Bees, Cumbria" By JOHN TODD AND MARY TODD, 1999 vol XCIX
The opening paragraphs set the scene;
"... the house wherein I was born, and the lands pertaining thereto, being a small matter, under twenty shillings rent, but well builded at the charges of my father and brother.
So wrote Edmund Grindal, on the point of promotion from bishop of London to archbishop of York, to Sir William Cecil, Secretary of State to Elizabeth 1, in 1570. But where was this house? Antiquarians have been undecided, but it is now possible to say that the house wherein Archbishop Grindal was born still stands on Cross Hill in the village of St Bees, otherwise known as 19 and 20 Finkle Street. As will be shown, Grindal's letter also enables us to give a date for its construction or rebuilding, namely between 1500 and 1520. ........................
Edmund Grindal's early biographer, Strype, believed that the Archbishop's birthplace was at Hensingham, which was formerly within the parish of St Bees. Local tradition puts it either at the former farm known as Chapel House, or at Overend Farm, where stones with the initials W. G. and W. R. G. were thought to refer to William Grindal, Edmund's father. In the last century William Jackson doubted Strype's opinion. Professor Patrick Collinson, Grindal's modern biographer, shared those doubts. New evidence from the building on Cross Hill, and from the court book of the manor of St Bees, shows that the doubts were well founded."
Later it is stated.....
"Thanks to the records of the governors' manor court, which show changes of leaseholders and sales from one to another, it is possible to piece together the subsequent history of "Grindal's tenement", or Cross Hill as it came to be known, up to the present day, so proving that this was indeed the house in which the future archbishop was born."
It is therefore proposed that the reference to Hensingham be omitted, unless evidence can be shown otherwise, in the light of the article cited above.

Talk:William Temple (bishop)

message: Given the confusability between the two, I wonder if the Temples are the only father-son pair of Archbishops of Canterbury, or if they had predecessors (in which case the Temples would be the last instance) in this respect?  Worth noting in the article.Cloptonson (talk) 09:14, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Only father-son pair of Archbishops?

message: I have deleted the mistaken claim added to this article in an edit on 26 Nov 2007 that: 
This claim has subsequently been repeated in derived wording on a number of other websiteseg. . The cited source by Max Hastings does not mention Temple, but p.257 does refer to "a future British Home Secretary, a moderator of the Church of Scotland and an Archbishop of Canterbury" going into action; this (future) archbishop was Robert Runcie, then a young Lieutenant in the Scots Guards, but the contributor may well have misunderstood. Temple's standard biography  makes no mention of any such trip, and gives no indication the Archbishop ventured anywhere more dangerous or exotic than Croydon during these last few months of his life.

message: Most, if not all, of the Clan Chattan association of Clans were non-jurant (Episcopalian), yet came out in support of Charles Stuart in the last Jacobite rebellion (1745-46), giving their lives in center field at Culloden. Thus I think it not exactly true that "  they generally did not actively support the Jacobite rebellions in 1715 or 1745."  This record was lost in part because they were killed, imprisoned, deported, or escaped to other countries.

thread_title: Non-jurant Jacobite Protestants

message: The current wording states it was a split in the 'Anglican churches of England, Scotland and Ireland,' a fundamental and highly significant error in respect of Scotland. In modern terminology, 'Episcopalian' (rule by bishops) and 'Presbyterian' (rule by elders) denote differences in both doctrine and governance; at the time, they primarily related to governance. 
The Church of Scotland or kirk (not to be confused with the modern Scottish Episcopal Church) was Calvinist in doctrine; before 1690, Scottish bishops were Calvinists presiding over Presbyterian structures. The Church of England was far more complex in doctrine and even Scots bishops viewed many of their practices as little better than Catholicism. This was why the English church rejected a number of proposals for union, the last in 1690 when bishops were finally removed from the Church of Scotland.
This also explains why the Common Prayer book and other reforms by Charles I led to the Civil Wars. The article needs some work but the opening sentence should be 'a split in the established churches of England, Scotland and Ireland.

The reference cited plainly does not make the substantial claim that this article does as that being reason and cause for his absense. (This would fall under a guess and imaginary) Perhaps, Oliver did not appear in pc3 because he was cheated on his contract for the original and sequel and therefore he refused to portray junior again.(Again, pure speculation though I have not included in the article...can you understand why?)
