Examine for unitarian beliefs. Homagetocatalonia 22:20, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Very interesting. Thank you for that reference. It doesn't sound to me as though he was a unitarian, but just that he had some anguished self-confrontation over the doctrine of the trinity. Amity150 05:56, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dr. Watts' hymns

I believe that Watts wrote only the words to these hymns, not the music. Amity150 21:20, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Other Works

I have attempted to develop the section on Watts's Logic in the 'Other Works' section, although I realise it still leaves much to be desired. Of course, it is not supposed to be final, and I welcome anyone else's contributions to it. I'll tidy it up as soon as possible. Plotinus 19:04, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
