British Israelism
Hello, I’m an employee of The First Church of Christ, Scientist. British Israelism was not an influence on Eddy’s work nor did she teach it. See Peel, Robert (1977), Mary Baker Eddy: The Years of Authority, Holt, Rinehart and Winston, pp. 114-119). Would you please consider correcting this? FirsthandPOV-CCS (talk) 21:41, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- After reading Peel, Bukan, and Miller (the two sources cited and one proposed), I think the current section should be rewritten, but not entirely removed. There appears to be a difference of opinion amongst historians about Eddy's relationship with British Israelism (even Peel on pg. 118 acknowledges Eddy was "intrigued" by the theory Template:Tq) and we should explain the different opinions instead of cutting content entirely.

- @FirsthandPOV-CCS, just checking -- is your proposed change to remove the current section entirely, or some other edit? Thanks! Rusalkii (talk) 22:27, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- Rusalkii, my primary focus was that British Israelism is included as an influence or teaching. It was neither an influence on Eddy’s work nor did she teach it. FirsthandPOV-CCS (talk) 21:43, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
