Talk:Parliament of the World's Religions

message: Item deleted as it wasn't a genuine and direct criticism of the parliament but a misplaced rhetorical polemic.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.25.109.197 (talk) 15:41, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: hi. I am not up for wikipedia editing, but I am an eyewitness here (for the 2018 convention) and the entry as written does not feel accurate to me. my account is that the Dalai Lama was not in attendance but gave a live video address at the opening event. happy editing friends! 2601:602:87E:4D90:DC42:1E59:AFC9:2CB2 (talk) 20:07, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

thread_title: Criticism

message: * This article is obviously aimed at propagating the achievements of Swami Vivekananda at the World Parliament of Religions in 1893. The rest of the material has just been shoved in carelessly. It would be proper to name this article Swami Vivekananda at the World Parliament of Religions. If a proper article on the World Parliament of Religions is to be developed by the authors, Swami Vivekananda will merely occupy a small part of it. -- Seejee 05:32, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Which religions?

message: It would be interesting of we could note down the extent of Roman Catholic participation at the Parliament. Until the Second Vatican Council, the Church was mostly hostile to the interfaith movement, but its attitude underwent a significant change during that period. In any event, the current article doesn't mention anything about the Council and how its influence made it possible for many individual Christians to participate in inter-religious discussions.

message: I think the article for the 1893 Chicago event should be separated from the activities of the post-1993 revival group, which has no real connection to it (not even in name, anymore). The fact is, after the 1893 Congress hundreds of interfaith groups arose. While the "Council for the Parliament of the World's Religions" is one of the most significant, they are a different phenomenon than the predecessor which inspired them. 118.165.204.116 (talk) 03:14, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Why is Sri Swami Mayatitananda singled out for so much attention in this article?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.83.30.73 (talk) 18:53, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

message: There should be more detail about the formal organisation, called the Council for a Parliament of the World's Religions (official site). Perhaps a dedicated section without the need for a dedicated article or stub. Details could cover the organisation's history, founders, structure and purpose.
I created the above named redirect to this article.

message: The following from the article makes no sense. Is the "1893" a typo for "1993" or something else?:
"Absent from this event were Native American religious figures, Sikhs and other Indigenous and Earth centered religionists. (It would not be until the 1893 Parliament that these religions and spiritual traditions would be represented.)"
