The claim with the heading "Anti-Ritualism, homophobia, and "muscular Christianity" is completely uncited (and arguably POV) and should probably be removed unless a quality reference is found to support it.71.207.192.47 05:51, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

A good reference to the contention that there was a homophobic undertone to the "Muscular Christian" reaction to Ritualism has long since been found and included both in a footnote and the bibliography.Pgg7 10:15, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

this article should be called "Anglican Christian Ritualism" since it is only about that topic. Obviously, there are a number of other topics that could be included under the header of "ritualism" such as Catholic Ritualism or other denomination Rituals. From a sociological and cultural standpoint it is a very broad topic that does deserve coverage on Wikipedia since many social or cultural behaviors involve "Ritualism". This article needs to be expanded to reflect that. Stevenmitchell 00:36, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree (despite the fact that I wrote the article). Mind you, I organised it in such a way as Anglican Ritualism can become one part of a larger article. If it's thought that it should become a separate article, I don't see a problem with that either. User:Pgg7 5th May 2006

At the moment it should be renamed and the general intro should be changed to reflect the content. If someone wants to create an overview of Ritualism in general, or Christian Ritualism specifically, then they can summariase this article there, adding other material. Paul B 14:55, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anglo-Catholic Ritualism?

I'd argue that wouldn't be a bad title. In any case, the new bibliography section includes references specifically for that particular variant of Anglican ritualism alone.

[edit] Legacy of the Ritualist Movement

I have removed the implication that the effect of the movement was positive, because that seemed to me to be an unsupported POV. I hope I have left it neutral. ro 07:44, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
