:If you mean "Jesus" or "Christ" then they are proper nouns and should be capitalized. Thats grammer not POV. ] 12:21, 14 Sep 2004 (UTC) |

:: ''Pronouns'', not names. As in do we write, in the Christian manner, "...at the time of His crucifixion..." or in the same way we would write about any other crucified person "...at the time of his crucifixion..." Misplaced Pages style does not capitalize pronouns for monarchs, either. -- ] 16:43, Sep 14, 2004 (UTC) |

From the article: "In the movie '']'', Balthasar is an old man who goes back to Palestine to see the former child Jesus become an adult." |

::Isn't a characterization of the ] of Balthasar that references ''Ben-Hur'' ajust a little... I'm looking for the tactful word... help me here... The development of the details of the Three Wise Men from the merest hint in the N.T. is actually a serious and interesting chapter of the history of ideas and of iconography. ---] 11:29, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC) |

== dubious addition == |

Someone recently added to the article "believed to be the very bright ]-] ])". Believed by whom? By the wise men? By the author of the Bible story? By some random group of Christians? There may be some relevant individual who holds this belief, but I son't know who. Most scientists -- those who would study a Jupiter-Saturn conjunction -- presumably reject the historicity of the account of the Wise Men visiting the infant Jesus. Unless someone turns this into something clearer within 48 hours, I intend simply to delete it. -- ] (17:34 PDT, Sep 25, 2004; failed to timestamp this when I wrote it) |

::Justified. Part of the long tradition for establishing a "historicity" of all the Nativity events— a chronicle that just can't be neutrally discussed at Misplaced Pages. --] 11:29, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC) |

"...the '''Three Kings''', traditionally refer to the ''] from the east'', mentioned in the ], in the ]..." Notice how the use of italics gives the impression that the '']'' is being quoted. A direct quote would have been so plain and clear: what is the reason for mystification here? --] 11:29, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC) |
