Controversies section
[edit]I have no objection to this section, but please cite it properly, with articles from the mainstream press. The sole citation provided - which I have deleted - is about the Catholic church. If you dont know the difference between the catholics and the anglicans, dont bother editing this article. Hornplease 08:51, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- Its not catholic. Perhaps you may want to read the source.[1]. Its not exactly mainstream though, I'll give you that.Bakaman Bakatalk 16:00, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- I still think more sources are required for such allegations, and this isn't specifically on the Dalit issue as well. Just my 2 cents. Bob K 16:07, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what these "controversies" were all about, but if you read Barbara Pym's "A Glass of Blessings", at the time of its establishment it obviously caused ructions within the Church of England. I imagine that this was because Anglican churches consider themselves part of the Holy Catholic Church and the non-Anglican churches merged into the Church of South India were not part of this catholic tradition. Poshseagull (talk) 15:55, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
I object to the sentence: "It came into being by a union of Anglican and Protestant churches in South India" - the Anglican churches are also protestant! perhaps "Anglican, Methodist and Reformed Churches" would be better? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.210.113.195 (talk) 01:41, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
The Motto and the Cross
[edit]The section as written is lovely, but not encyclopedic in style. It needs to be made less an advocacy for the subject matter, and more a dispassionate description of the items and their symbolism(s). --Orange Mike 18:56, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I have done a full re-edit of the whole article and removed the POV tag. Hope that's ok. - Bob K 05:48, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
Uniform format proposal
[edit]A proposal is being floated at the project page that there be a standard format for organising each article about national provinces of the Anglican Communion, including this one. Please consider participating in the straw vote and discussion. Cheers! Fishhead64 21:53, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Clarification needed
[edit]From the article: "Presently this is Owesome Blessed Home for so many children of God, Its present strong existence mark the extreme spiritual and physical effort with which it was built. Expecting the next generation to work for betterment inspite of hurdles all around inside and outside."
I'm not sure I understand what this means. Oswald Glinkmeyer (talk) 12:04, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
- Whatever it means exactly, it sounds laudatory to me. I'm removing it as POV. Carl.bunderson (talk) 09:34, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
Talk:Personal Ordinariate
[edit]Apart from the Traditional Anglican Communion, the article should really consider verifying whether groups within the Church of South India have ever sought a similar canonical structure to the proposed personal ordinariates. ADM (talk) 18:08, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
Titles of CSI diocese articles
[edit]There is a discussion in progress at Talk:Diocese of Madras of the Church of South India about the titles of articles of CSI dioceses.The Discoverer (talk) 08:08, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

Legality
[edit]CSI is not a registered body. It should not make any money transactions. Church of South India Trust association is the registration under company act from 1947 made by missionaries just after independence., exclusively for doing Charity.
Just 19 directors are misusing this enjoying vast properties and FCRA and local church collections of the four southern states. Pure money laundering is carried out by an illegal manner under the banner CSI. Blasphemy is the right definition which can fit this wrong deed. Joelwesley (talk) 10:08, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
