Talk:Gail A. Riplinger/Comments
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I agree that this article is very fair. I have studied Riplinger's books and claims for almost 2 years and have found that she does not tell the truth. I state this as an objective fact that anyone can find out for themselves by following up on the most basic of her phony claims. She has wrecked many churches, causing division with her false information and blatant attacks. She ripped apart my church. I have personally found that her book New Age Bible Versions is fraudulent, proven by the many false claims she has made that I have been able to prove inaccurate and, at many times, just plain fallacious and slanderous to those she unrightly attacks. I am in the process of putting together a large essay refuting her work and stating the actual facts and how they show her to be a very incorrect, contentious individual. And, realistically, that is as nice as it can get when one gets into studying her fallacious assertions in her books. Anyone can do their own research and find out for themselves. It's simple to do. I agree that Scott's article is accurate and fair and could add many details from my own findings. She is controversial because her defenders refuse to check into her claims. It's not hard to do but some would rather keep a false platform rather than admit they have been following someone who is misleading them. Sad, but true. I invite critics of Scott's article to do their own homework and then discuss it.67.142.130.48 01:12, 29 March 2007 (UTC)Purpleparrot
- I didn't see this before I tried to remove any hint of biased language from the page - I am interested in seeing this essay - even in draft.
- Because GAR is so controversial, I tried to give primary sources only - detailed reviews of the books, her own talks on sermonaudio.com, etc. and let her speak for herself. If someone didn't know who GAR was, an article full of "conspiracy theory" etc might look biased, but she really is a conspiracy theorist. Her methods of scholarship are questionable at best. I want to be balanced and show what else ministries primarily known for KJO do -- but with GAR, I can't find anything like that to highlight, unfortunately. Scott1329m 13:10, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
