Talk:María de Agreda
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While revising this page, I noticed that the date of Sister Maria's death was inaccurate. It should read 1665, not 1655.

[edit] Anti-Semitism?
Does Maria de Agreda say anywhere that Christians should deviate from clearly defined Biblical principles of charity and forgiveness and persecute Jews because they crucified the Lord? Something should be made clear here--"revenging the Crucifixion" is NOT a Christian principle and is a sin just as revenge is in any other case. "Vengence is mine; I will repay," is what God said. As for Maria being anti-Semitic, is she stating facts that occured with accuracy and without demanding vengence on the Jews, or is she inaccurate and demanding vengence on the Jews? Also, vigilantes are a different story, as they distort the truth in their own minds to justify their actions, so this needs to be distinguished. JBogdan 23:07, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Difference from German Article
The German Wikipedia article says that María de Agreda is "venerable", but not yet beatified. It might be good to see if a date can be found for the beatification (the linked article says she has been beatified, but it's not exactly a peer-reviewed, unimpeachable source...) I'd be happier seeing a second source here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.13.16.18 (talk) 11:01, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
As of 2002, I see [1] that the case had not yet been closed. 151.13.16.18 11:05, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
