Christianity as a minority religion?[edit]

Putting Christianity as minority religion would start a dangerous precedent as it begins to blur into who is actually considered ethnically Jewish based on that lots of Christians and other religions can claim to have Jewish heritage and ethnicity.

You would have to add Jewish Buddhists and Hindus and Muslims and so on by this logic making it a very dangerous precedent to set. Salandarianflag (talk) 00:08, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If an ethnical Jewish person converts to Christianity, that person is an ethnically Jewish person who is practicing Christianity. If two ethnically Jewish converts have children who follow Christianity, they are, again, ethnic Jews whose religion is Christianity. It's a fact, even if you think for some reason that it's dangerous. However, the link is incorrect. What Jewish Christians is about has little to nothing to do with ethnic Jews today who practice some form of Christianity. Largoplazo (talk) 01:05, 28 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Request: "Modern Period"[edit]

The phrase "by 1941, Hitler occupied almost all of Europe" might be fine in casual conversation, but for an encyclopedia, this is not good enough. Substitute "Hitler" with either "Germany", "the German Reich", "Nazi Germany", or "Nazi forces". While Hitler commanded the occupying armies, he did not occupy. Yes, I know this is a pars-pro-toto, but it sounds very silly in a serious article. --91.64.59.91 (talk) 14:47, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 17 February 2024[edit]

Sorry, what are you referring to? Similar to what? Which part of the article specifically? Tollens (talk) 06:32, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
