Talk:Mercy

As sweet and touching as this article is (currently), is this really an encyclopedic article? Am I able to take any adjective and create a Conservapedia article by citing scripture or poetry exclusively? And UNATTRIBUTED poetry at that? I'm sorry, but this was placed here with absolutely NO attribution to William Shakespeare. I'm getting disgusted with the poor quality of contributions here. Conservapedia? How about "Plagiarize-apedia." See plagiarism. Get with the program people. --AdmiralNelson 12:02, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

This is a wiki. Don't just complain about it, FIX it. --DeanS^talk 15:04, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

Good idea. Wondering why you took the time to respond instead of fixing it yourself. --AdmiralNelson 16:07, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

Because you made a general comment "I'm getting disgusted with the poor quality of contributions here." Thus my general statement. If you have a problem with the quality of contributions, fix the articles. --DeanS^talk 16:26, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

There. How old are you two, 4? -DrSandstone 16:09, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

Thank you for your civil and polite response. It speaks for itself. --AdmiralNelson 16:12, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

FYI. I went ahead and supplied a definition and added the stub tag. --AdmiralNelson 16:22, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

I reinserted the quoted material and souced it within the copy. Maybe it's just the level of vandalism on this site but people have such a difficult time remaining civil at times. Marge 16:29, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

Thank you. I went ahead and clarified and made more accurate the entire quote and clearified attribution. Thanks for your contribution in any case. If I weren't currently involved your contribution stands as a responsible contribution. DeanS's comment was the most appropriate herein, by the way. --AdmiralNelson 16:38, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

I appologze for my remark, the bickering here lately has gotten on my nerves. -DrSandstone 16:32, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

Apology accepted. --AdmiralNelson 16:39, 27 August 2008 (EDT)

Shylock as money lending Jew

Please do not delete the statement that Shylock is a money lending Jew. This is a neutral and accurate description. Please note that that in the words of Shakespeare himself ...

. . . And earthly power doth then show likest God's,

When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew,
Though justice be thy plea, consider this,
That in the course of justice none of us
Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy;
And that same prayer doth teach us all to render

The deeds of mercy.
