[edit] Article and image cleanup

This articles layout has suddendly taken a turn for Livejournal. I've removed most of the inline pictures inserted by User:Jesse Morrell:

  • bro_jed.jpg
  • Here is a picture of one of his books: jedbook.jpg
  • pointing.jpg
  • police.jpg
  • prank.jpg
  • Here is a picture of speakers circle at Mizzou University: picjed.jpg

What's more, they are badly named. The only picture in the history of the Wikipedia called "police.jpg" is Brother Jed talking to a cop!? --Adamrush 16:12, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy

I'm shocked at the lack of any mention to any sort of controversy Brother Jed has caused in his preaching. No mention of his rather frequent racist or sexist remarks? I personally have seen him speak several times, and this article, at best, is incomplete, but frankly quite biased in ignoring the bigoted and inflamatory nature of Brother Jed's so called "confrontational" preaching. 24.161.183.72 20:33, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Feel free to contribute to the article. Be advised, however, even if mr Smock would tell you a bunch of stuff in person that would be "original research" and thus not acceptable by the WikiPedia policy. It's without a doubt, however, that mr Smock is firmly planted outside the fold of christianity. --128.214.133.2 09:59, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Aw come on, original research? What about his classic explanation of sex using two electrical plugs (to demonstrate, naturally, how only the penis and vagina fit together, and that two penises don't. Although that's not how gay people have sex...). But seriously, what about catching him on camera? Is that original research?Rglong 04:04, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pelagianism

Has there ever been a published counterpoint to the report of Brother Ned teaching Pelagianism? This article seems to have little critical aspect.Brian0324 19:20, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Location of Ministry

Brother Jed's offical website states that he is based in Columbia, Missouri. Grey Wanderer | Talk 20:02, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

He's been at FSU for the past several years. I have pictures to prove it. I realize that's OR, but Jed apparently hasn't updated his site recently (perhaps because he's been preaching at FSU for so long)⇒ SWATJester Denny Crane. 01:26, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm sure hes been at FSU. He tours around the nation in the fall and winter and preaches at the University of Missouri in spring and summer. The website was last updated in 06. I'm afraid pictures won't be enough as hes been to campus' all over the U.S. Grey Wanderer | Talk 01:51, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Revision

I'm going to substantially edit this page, adding verifiable sources and removing biased point of view. I've created a page in my user space; feel free to contribute there. Also, leave any suggestions on my talk page. Thanks! JFlav 03:22, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
