::I have looked over there is some refining to do but General gist is there. I would like to contextualize some of that into their belief systems. Simple drive by accusations of racism are often poor substitutes for academic deconstructions. I tended to avoid the overly sensational in the article but layout balanced facts. I hope to discuss this more with you but right now I am traveling a bit and am only averaging a few edits a day. have you considered getting a user name to make it easier to communicate?

:::I have considered it. Also I agree that accusations of racism need to be handled with utmost care. If accusations are notable, for instance a major paper calling the group's position racist, that should be noted accordingly. More to the point though, I'd like to have a neutrally stated and accurate description of their core doctrinal beliefs as outlined above. An article about TT without mentioning the need to live on a TT commune is like an article on Mormonism without Joseph Smith. What I need help with is sifting through the articles I listed for the appropriate ones to use in the article and citation formats. I like the way you organized the article. I'm just picking at some details. :) [[Special:Contributions/69.245.72.101|69.245.72.101]] ([[User talk:69.245.72.101|talk]]) 06:46, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
::::IT's always a matter of [[WP:DUE]] of and [[WP:UNDUE]] weight. I have tended to leave it out as accusation that is a minority view point under the [[WP:WEIGHT]] clause. Compounding the issue is every time I begin is it all traces back to [http://www.twelvetribesteachings.com/cham.htm this site] and interestingly enough [http://www.twelvetribesteachings.com/pdf/Cham%20-%20Equality.pdf the most damning document there as obviously been altered by a third party.] "Elbert the weasel" is something that just would not be in a TT document. That same source you cited the article in the Guardian suggests they are part of the [[Christian Identity]] movement which if true would turn the state of scholarship on it's head. I threw out the material long ago because the more you look at it the stranger the accusations get.
