Hello Cirt i commend you for trying to keep the page clean of misinformation, Any page that is about NRM requires constant vigilance. as to my particular criticism on whether it is a research group or anti-cult ministry, i understand you concern with me labeling this group to discredit it. however hear is the quote | |||
"Andrew Walsh, a religious historian at Trinity College in Hartford, finds this troubling. "I’m by no means an expert on cults," Walsh says. "I wouldn’t go around saying that what Robert Pardon does is bad for people. But what’s interesting to me is that he got an awful lot of mileage out of being a ‘cult expert’ while not being open about that fact that he is religious himself. His group sounds academic and nonprofit-y, and he presents it that way because if he called it the Anti-Cult Ministry, people wouldn’t call him, judges wouldn’t call him. It seemed to me that he positioned himself as a kind of free agent able to comment objectively about the case, and journalists just ate that up and gave him oceans of ink without saying who he was." | |||
i also intend to use an article from the Academic Journal for additional criticism "Religion in the News" http://www.trincoll.edu/depts/csrpl/RINVol3No3/cult_fighting.htm | |||
i also intend to find the source you used yourself as a source: Eileen, McNamara (February 3, 2002). "Investigator on a Mission". The Boston Globe (Globe Newspaper Company): p. B1. | |||
the issue i find with this page is its seems unbalanced i am attempting to add balance currently. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> | |||
:Again - source does not support the changes you made. And then you also made changes further down the page of the article not supported by any sources. ''']''' (]) 18:37, 29 October 2009 (UTC) | |||

entirely false totally taken out of context, all i meant was i understand that Cirt beleives me to be trying to discredit the Neirr, i am merely using that states that the gorup masquerades as non-profit while actually ministering to these "brainwashed" indivisuals. To call it a research group is laughable this guy attacks the unitarians as a cult mormons and Baha'i. the board of the orginzation consists of nearly entirley Reverends along with a therapist and lawyer hardly academic ] (]) 20:52, 29 October 2009 (UTC) | |||

It would seem from these repeated virtually identical style of edit behavior that it is a singular goal of the account {{user|Weaponbb7}} to change the lede definition of the organization from the NPOV "research group" to the POV-pushing "anti-cult ministry". ''']''' (]) 22:24, 7 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
:The Group never identifies itself as a Research Group But rather a "]" and uses the "Another important dimension of Institute ministry" later in the same paragraph of the Who We are section "NEIRR is deeply grateful to all those who have helped this ministry". the neutrality of the article is also in question the whole article sounds like an advertisement to me The article i used the first time i had confused as the article i just used. ] (]) 22:47, 7 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
::Every single one of your edits appears to be with the singular intention of attempting to denigrate this existing organization, in some cases with info from dubious sources, and as shown above, in some cases with information ''not'' backed up to any sources.

::Yup, yet again having to fix some of this new material which was both not NPOV and not in accordance with the sources it purported to cite. ''']''' (]) 07:05, 8 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
: I do not try to try to "denigrate" this organization any more than i think you try to "promote" the organization by contributing only positive information. A simple google search turns up criticism or rather "outside the mainstream views" the institute holds, I have only used articles I have perceived as valid. You have cherry picked statements made on this page to try and to imply COI to discourage me to from editing the article. I have referred this mutual disagreement on the exact nature of the Institute to ] hopefully to try to resolve this disagreement. ] (]) 14:42, 8 December 2009 (UTC) | |||

::: I am glad you see it as criticism there are number of people who would consider it a endorsement of the organization by the AP |
