Bennett was never a Thelemite. He was a Golden Dawn member and Crowley's mentor. He never professed to follow Thelema: He went to India, and became a Buddhist. Crowley tried to convert him to Thelema during a visit to India, but was rebuffed. Bennett had renounced western magick. Would you want to be called a member of a religion you never joined after you die? -999 05:20, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
As for Kellner, Thelema is not the same as OTO and vice-versa. Kellner was never really even a founder of OTO, but simply an associate of Reuss' who he found it convenient to make part of the order's mythology. Thelema had not come into it at all at that time. You have to understand that Crowley made claims that various dead people were Thelemites. However, unless they themselves professed Thelema, they should not be on List of Thelemites, IMO. -999 05:23, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Actually, no. Bennett left for Asia in 1900 and not only became a Buddhist but had founded the World Buddhist Society by 1903, before Crowley received the Book of the Law. Crowley tried but fail to convert him later during a visit to India. (Crowley wrote that he was a traitor to the West because of this, or some such rubbish.) You may be thinking of Frank Bennett, the Australian that Crowley wrote Liber Samekh for... -999 05:33, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
How do you want this?
Do you want me to remove the guys I put on the British blues page from the blues guitarists page? Clay4president 17:34, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- I would say anyone in Category:British blues musicians who is best/only known as a guitarist should be moved to Category:British blues guitarists. More to the point, no one should be listed in both categries; just one or the other. That said, I'm not entirely clear on what you're referring to when you say "the British blues page," so if that's not Category:British blues musicians, I'd appreciate it if you could provide a link. --Geoff Capp 12:23, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
- I have added several guitarists to British Blues Guitarists. I went through all the blues guitarists. Clay4president 03:42, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
Thelema Category
Thanks for letting me know. Honestly, I'm not entirely sure how that happened. Must have been a mistake I made when I first starting editing. Thanks again. Regards. SynergeticMaggot 03:11, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

There is no fixed length for a stub (see this ). When I removed the templates I was going through a number of Polish Churches changing {{Poland-struct-stub}} to {{Poland-church-stub}}. When I am doing this I normally remove templates if the articles are much longer than others in the same area, I amguessing that most of the articles in that group where 1 small section and this one stood out as being longer. If you think the templates need readding I have no problem with that, it may be an idea though to have Poland-church-stub instead of the struct-stub and not have geo-stub as these are generally not used on buildings.

Trial of the Knights Templar
The research that I did was properly sited and if you have checked the source I gave you would find every word I cited. You would also find it includes some of the greatest historians who ever lived. Also the book is NOT IN COPYRIGHT. It is available on the Internet Archives.Mugginsx (talk) 09:40, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
Rewording in same article as to the paragraph on the Chinon document
It is a contradiction of terms to state that the Pope did not believe the Templars were guilty and at the same time he "absolved" them. To absolve in the Catholic Church means to "forgive" the sin, not that the sin was never committed. Since virtually everyone was Catholic at the time, everyone knew the meaning of "absolution" in the Middle Ages.Mugginsx (talk) 10:26, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
