The link to the Susan Jacoby article in the Washington Post is now redirected to a Christian blog called Faithstreet. This seems to be intentional, since Faithstreet and the Washington Post have the same owners. Nonetheless, the link is no longer valid for the reference. I have no idea how to correct this, but if anyone is doing maintenance on this page, it should be changed. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/206.248.176.237|206.248.176.237]] ([[User talk:206.248.176.237|talk]]) 16:40, 28 December 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I noticed this also. The redirect is partly due to the fact that the article is no longer at the WaPo address. It is archived here: http://archive.is/ZAzR6 -- I'll try to edit it in when I'm not posting from a phone.

is there a movie

This section is not for questions to be posted. Search google, it will take you two minutes.Beefcake6412 (talk) 18:01, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    • Yes Mr. Beefcake this is the perfect place for him to post this question. Just because it's in question form doesn't mean it's in the wrong place. How in the world could you ever guess he wasn't asking so he could add a line to the page that say's "A movie based on the novel....yada yada". I see people just like you all the time, calm down. This is a Wikipedia talk page, stop taking it so seriously. If I want to come on here, ask a question in relation to improving the article, I will, and a man named Mr. Beefcake isn't going to stop that. You could easily just google it, take two minutes and answer his question, or leave it alone entirely. The seriousness of these talk pages is ridiculous. This talk page will have no more than 5 posting over the next 14 years, but be careful or we might fill up the page! Because archived pages aren't a thing right? The novel peaked in 2011, if the talk page wasn't full then it never will be. This is not Encarta. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.118.40.134 (talk) 21:41, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Two potential NPOV bits?

Specifically the statement that it documents a trip to heaven, which makes it sound like that is something that undeniably happened and was documented, and the reference to the Blessed Virgin Mary, a specifically Catholic notion (The linked article is solely about Catholic views of Mary). Perhaps we should change it to simply say Virgin Mary and clarify the beginning? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.2.252.77 (talk) 04:10, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]


The use of the name Virgin Mary is out of context because of Burpo be Protestant. Moreover may confuse anyone who reads, because it seems that they became Catholics. Would be more appropriate Mary (mother of Jesus). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.3.140.155 (talk) 00:41, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
