Talk:Ritual purification
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page was a candidate for Stubsensor cleanup project. I think the page as a whole doesn't count as a stub, but individual sections certainly do, so I've decided to leave the stub tag on for now. --RoySmith 01:48, 7 Jun 2005 (UTC)
WTF? Does a encyclopedia start in this way?!
"There are strong similarities between the cleansing actions engaged in by obsessive compulsive disorder sufferers and those of religious purification rites."
Is that NPOV? --Striver 03:09, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Merger
I would oppose merging this article with the one on Ablution. Ablution referrs specifically to washing with water; whereas ritual purification referrs to maintaining a state of ritual cleanness--which may be accomplished as much by abstainig from certain behaviors as by performing certain acts (which may or may not involve the use of water).
