Talk:British Israelism
Shane Vaughn's church[edit]
There's this Trump pastor called Shane Vaughn who believes a variant of the British Israelism myth. He says that the ten tribes went up through the Caucasus, were "captivated" (not sure whether he meant captured or captivated) by the Germans, and became the Anglo-Saxons that went to England. He mostly just needs this to be true so the Founding Fathers of America can be Jews and so America can be the new Israel. I feel like this guy deserves his own page, but should I add his (not only his) beliefs concerning America being the new Israel to this page? Is there another page for it that I am unaware of?

Deletion of the section "views on Islamism"?[edit]
Sorry for creating sub-section "views on Islamism". The word "Islamism" carries a negative connotation, referring to an ideological threat to the West according to some circles, while "Islam" is reserved for the neutral, positive side in Muslim communities. (David Belt and Daniel Pipes) It is really inappropriate and does not conform to wikipedia rules even though it has valuable information as to how they view Muslims. Please help me in my changes to the article. The fringe Far-Right is Anti-Islamism because of their consideration of Moslem, Arab or third-world immigration as a demographic threat; Muhammad to be "falsified prophet", "heretic" or "Antichrist", the Rothschilds/Rockfellers and other's to be behind Islamic immigration, the Arab desire to "destroy the Zionist Entity", recommendation of birth-control, the Islamo-Leftist alliance and neo-Liberalism.
Thanks, 142.189.254.248 (talk) 19:08, 5 July 2025 (UTC).
This Article does not fit to be professional on the subject of Anglo-Israelism. It needs to include the differing views of Jewish descent from Biblical- and Classical-era Israel and Judah.
✓Done., that sub-section created by a vandalising IP has been removed from the page.
This article will be improved.
Semi-Protection of the page[edit]
Cosmikdebris, Could you please delete the vandal's contribution from the page's history? Block that user indefinitely, 93.107.194.144 without a single limit so that he realizes that Rationalwiki is meant to be a place of information only, not vandalism or one's own website.
This user has made RationalWiki so unreliable. — Unsigned, by: 142.189.254.248 / talk / contribs
- There's no need to over-react based on some idiot's stupid vandalism. The sysops heer quickly deal with such nonsense. —cosmikdebris talk stalk 14:17, 7 July 2025 (UTC)
OK, that user needs to be blocked indefinitely, Not for 3 days only. @Cosmikdebris. 142.189.254.248 (talk) 20:56, 7 July 2025 (UTC)
Relation to the Hebrew Roots Movement?[edit]
@Spud, This page should be unlocked on 11 July. What My IP did was not just a collection of external links. 142.189.254.248 (talk) 15:47, 9 July 2025 (UTC)
Unlock of this page[edit]
User:Spud, I am not just adding a lot of extra wikilinks. Those links are important because they'll explain the complex relation of British Israel Movement to the Hebrew Roots Movement, Seventh Day, Jehovah Witness and Protestantism. I will add more sources to back those information up. — Unsigned, by: 142.189.254.248 / talk / contribs
Relation to the Zionist Movement[edit]
This page must include information previously reverted by @Spud and merged with his version without too much wiki links. It seems that this article is missing the British Israel relation to the Hebrew Roots Movement. Husky Beer (talk) 01:06, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- That's probably true. It was excessive Wikipedia links (including to articles that we have pages about here, like Josephus, the Roman Empire and fucking Satan, for fuck's sake) that were the problem. The page was one big mass of blue-grey. And now that the protection has expired, it is again. Spud (talk) 14:58, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
Cleanup of the "Views and relation to the Torah" section[edit]
I removed all the inline wikipedia references, since they were so overwhelmingly overused. Concentrate on the text and references before adding all the distractive wikipedia links! —cosmikdebris talk stalk 02:32, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
- @Cosmikdebris Thank you. Spud (talk) 11:09, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
