:* Joseph Smith is not in the murdered activist section. Should he be? I might lay emphasis on the "political cause" part; the three items mentioned don't fall under such an umbrella (and, without offending, they are rather generic--most people profess advocacy of forgiveness, brotherly love, and faith in God). Now, perhaps a case could be made that Jesus as described in the Gospels is portrayed as a political activist, but that case hasn't been made yet (and might be deemed speculative, but I'd like to see what others think). --[[User:Peter Kirby|Peter Kirby]] 00:05, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

"although he is also reported in the New Testament to have heard Jesus ask why he was persecuting him on the road to Damascus and to have had scales on his eyes which fell off when he met the person he was foretold to meet". This is placed in the opening paragraphs, but it seems slightly OTT for the article on Jesus to be placed there. And what is the point--is it inserted to lead the reader to a conclusion, or is it irrelevant? I suggest moving the facts contained to another section of the article or another article altogether (one on Paul?). --[[User:Peter Kirby|Peter Kirby]] 00:13, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
