William Blake Christian?!
The only name I recognise is william Blake. How is he a Christian? He seems like more of a satanist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.149.155.89 (talk) 11:18, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
- Various sources regard Blake as a radical Christian.[1][2] Leo Tolstoy is probably the most well-known proponent of Christian anarchism (even though he never actually used the word "anarchist" to describe himself). Nirvana2013 (talk) 17:11, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
Oscar Wilde
One of the most prominent Christian anarchists, Oscar Wilde, keeps getting removed from this category by revisionist trolls. It is well sourced that he was both a Christian and an anarchist. Is there something that can be done about these trolls? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.15.190.132 (talk) 02:01, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
Scope – denomination
@Abelmoschus Esculentus, this category collects "Christian anarchists", followers of a specific school of anarchist thought, not all anarchists who identify as Christian or vice versa. The subcategory Category:Christian anarchists by denomination defeats the purpose of the original categorization, as the intersection of "Catholic" and "anarchist" is not a defining trait. That intersection is already handled by separate categories and it is best to not lose the "Christian anarchist" ideological category through further subcategorization. czar 11:41, 14 January 2019 (UTC)
