Wikipedia on TWI

[Bob]

Wikipedia now has an article about TWI.

Since anyone can edit an article there, I'm sure there are some here that could contribute some knowledge. :D-->

Well, technically it's a link to GreaseSpot, not an article.

But I suppose it counts. :)-->

It appears as though some TWIt started the article as promo material and some sharp non-TWIts jumped in to make sure that the Neutral Point of View editorial style was enforced and maintained. They also appear to have provided the "cult" consideration to the article.

Velly intellesting!

Here's an early version of the article, from February. Obviously it was done by a TWIt to promote TWI. Kind of backfired on him. :D-->

TWI is also listed in their List of Purported Cults, under the "Widest consensus" section. :)-->

We do not commit our work to publication until we are fully persuaded on a subject. After all, research doesn’t mean a simple, cursory reading. It denotes study, observation, and unemotional, detached consideration. If we sincerely want answers and believe in God’s authority, we must study the revelation given in His Word.

Yea right!! --> I'm thinking the publishing comes whenever they have enough material copied (and re-arranged to avoid copyright suits) to fill a book! :D-->

Their research has been done from a positive framework.

Positive that they could find a few sucke -- I mean takers.

Research doesn’t begin with the answers; it looks for the answers.

Preferably already written up and documented by someone else.

quote:

They don’t present Biblical research to be argumentative or apologetic.

Nope -- they present it to be profitable.
