Talk:Alcibiades

message: Like many men of his time and age, Alcibiades was gay, or better: a homosexual. I can close one eye on Plato's dialogues, but this guy is really something. See for example: Guildenrich (talk) 21:26, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That's probably not the right way to put it, because the Greeks didn't have the same concepts of sexual orientation that we do. For all that A. was involved in sexual relationships with other men, he also was married and had children, and, at least according to our article, "consorted with courtesans." This wasn't unusual behavior for an upper-class Greek male of the time. Homosexuality in ancient Greece has some relevant information. --Akhilleus (talk) 00:27, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

message: The article states Alcibiades had a lisp, and quotes an English translation of Aristophanes' Wasps (unsourced) in wich the S is replaced by Th.

thread_title:  [[WP:URFA/2020|FA sweeps]] 

message: What's up with the tone of this writing? It reads like a campfire tale or a eulogy, instead of an encyclopedic article. It gives account of historical facts with weird narrative phrasing, speculating over personal traits of the man and formulating hypotheticals on the fly.
I quote
"Alcibiades took part in the Battle of Potidaea in 432 BC, where Socrates was said to have saved his life.[18] Alcibiades later returned the favour by rescuing Socrates at the Battle of Delium in 424 BC."
*returned the favour*?
"Alcibiades was famed throughout his life for his physical attractiveness, of which he was inordinately vain."
This is not of encyclopaedic relevance and reads like a personal judgment or take on behalf of whoever wrote this sentence. 2800:A4:272B:FA00:6D77:1413:1AD9:83AD (talk) 15:25, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

message: As a student of linguistics and German who has been living in Germany for a year or so, I find the translation here to be a little inaccurate. Yes, in a blind translation "Erdapfel" does mean earth-apple (Erde = earth, Apfel = apple). However, the word Erdapfel actually referrs to a potato in many dialects of German (instead of High German's "Kartoffel"). Can anyone back up that this is perhaps what is really meant?

I've lived in many parts of the US for 74 years, I've attended many weddings, and I have never heard the groom's attendants called anything but "ushers".

Talk:Council of Rome

message: In an earlier edit, I deleted this statement: "According to the Roman Catholic view, Pope Damasus issued the following decree as a result of the council," because I knew of no evidence that the RCC officially maintains the authenticity of the Damasine list. The poster "Wetman" has now reinserted the claim in an even stronger form: "It remains the official Roman Catholic position that Pope Damasus issued the following decree as a result of the council."
If this is indeed the official Roman Catholic position, can Wetman (or anyone else) please show me the official RC statement affirming the authenticity of the Damasine list? In the absence of such a statement (and no, entries in the _Catholic Encyclopedia_ don't count), it is irresponsible to make claims about the RCC's "official" position. The RCC is not coy about stating its official positions. If it puts its weight behind the authenticity of the Damasine list, there ought to be a statement somewhere saying so. (anonymous post from User:Contarini)
I cannot speak for Wetman, but it would appear that the RCC holds that the "Canon of Scripture" is indeed the same list of books as written in the Damasine list. See CCC Paragraph 120: http://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/p1s1c2a3.htm#120
Whether or not the RCC views the decree taken by Pope Damasus as the official action that recognizes them is less clear. Perhaps a more neutral statement, such as "The Roman Catholic Church accepts the Damasine list as the official biblical canon by way of Apostolic tradition." would be more appropriate?

thread_title:  Why the claim about the RCC's official position? 

message: A footnote needs to be inserted to the effect that Damasus, bishop of Rome, is being given the title "Pope" retrospectively, as a courtesy to Roman Catholics, though the anachronism obscures the contemporary situation.--Wetman (talk) 22:01, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No footnote is needed. Yes, the title "Pope" for the bishop of Rome did not exist in the 4th century. But this is not a point worth arguing about, because nothing in the article turns on whether Damasus was called "pope" in his lifetime. For most people, "pope" is shorthand for "bishop of Rome". Every Wikipedia article about a bishop of Rome is titled "Pope N", even those who were not so called in their lifetime. MDJH (talk) 20:17, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
