[edit] Deletion

I contest the speedy deletion of this article as non-notable. Rea is cited in many books about the Seventh-day Adventist Church (such as Seeking a Sanctuary, widely acknowledged as the best book on the church), even mentioned in several paragraphs of a Time article. He was one of the majors figure of his time to criticise the writings of Ellen White, and helped to dramatically shift the scholarship of the church. He had a significant role in the history of the church. Colin MacLaurin (talk) 16:40, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
