This article is clearly not NPOV since it treats its subject with glowing praise. From my own point of view I have often wondered why such devoutly spiritual folk would blow huge amounts of money on an ostentatious edifice instead of giving it straight to the poor and hiring an old hall to preach in.

Took a crack at NPOVing it. How's it look? Header can go? Bryan 00:49, 5 Jun 2004 (UTC)
I thought this article looked pretty good after Bryan's cleanup, so I fixed one or two last details and removed the dispute header. Is this ok?

This is not very NPOV: In a sermon in spring 1991, shortly after the end of the Gulf War, the minister of the Crystal Cathedral, in a Sunday sermon, prayed to thank God that no one had been killed in that war. This prayer of thanks, interpreted as a statement of history, ignores, then, the demise of several tens of thousands of Iraqi military and perhaps 2,000 civilians, as well as, apparently, a few hundred U.S. and allied soldiers. --Dd42 22:07, May 4, 2005 (UTC)

Not many can judge what goes on at the Crystal Cathedral, because only the people who have relationships with the people can know what really goes on and what the minsters really have a heart for, against what most of the public gossips about. Only one from experience and relationship can judge and truly evaluate what the Crystal Cathedral actually is should be writing anything on this page. Me, for example is the one that has a voice that should and will be heard. Dr. Schuller from personal experience, is a great person, and truly loves the Lord with all of his heart, the rest would make sense if someone knew his intentions.
