[edit] H.S.Chamberlain

Maybe before tagging things you should read HSC's books, eh? Both Chamberlain and Lord Redesdale said Chamberlain was heavily influenced by Nietzsche. HSC didn't argue for the superiority of the Aryan race but the superiority of the Teutonic peoples of whom he includes the British. Regards, David Lauder 22:11, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Progressive Judaism

Good rewording! I've been wondering for weeks about how to address this problem - the lead seemed over general and couldn't figure out a way to do it without being awkward. (BTW - the Masorti issue also applies to US Conservative).

One thing that has been bothering me: is there a good way for us to organize all the things that apply to *all* the non-orthodox Judaisms? Organizationally, Masorti and Conservative don't belong to the WUPJ, but philosophically they are all wrestling with the same tensions (as your edit indicates). And at least in the case of US Conservative vis a vis worldwide Progressive, both left and right wing answers show up in both sets of organizations. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. The Reform on the left; Conservative on the right distinction starts to fall apart when one goes global. Egfrank 13:54, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

PS when I last lived in London, I used to daven from time to time at the New London Synagogue. Also hung out at Bevis Marks for the music. Egfrank 13:59, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wandering Jew

I know you did some good work there, but the intro was entirely eliminated, down to the "otheruses" tag, by this edit. I now see that was probably a mistake rather than intentional, and I see that some of what I thought was new unsourced material was just old unsourced material that had been moved around. I certainly don't object to you restoring the page to your version, so long as you make sure to keep the intro.--Cúchullain ^t/c 18:06, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
