Hi Ebimoss.

Thankyou for your message ref Brotherhood of the Cross and Star. I did not intend to be negative about the organization--I believe that I have descibed BCS in previous edits using a neutral point of view. It is useful to explain to outsiders how BCS differs from mainstream Christianity. I am sure you will agree that the beliefs surrounding Olumba Olumba Obu and Rowland are unique to the BCS (other churches do not accept their divinity). Matters of faith are notoriously difficult to present on Wikipedia, but I am sure that we ought to be able to do so!

You previously deleted the statement that BCS was a millenarian religion. It is useful to include this historical fact as those who came upon BCS before 2000/2001 when the world was meant to be ending. I realise that BCS members now have a different understanding of that prophecy.

If you would like to reference published works describing miracles surrounding the birth of Olumba Olumba Obu, I would suggest that it would be better to write "Members of the church believe that multiple miracles... etc" and give references, rather than state the miracles as fact. I accept that you might believe in them, but many will question such assertions.

You also deleted the comments about Olumba Olumba Obu and his son Rowland, and control of the church. This was unhelpful. Would you like to suggest a simple, factual, form of words to explain the succession?
