Wikipedia

Maybe it's a symptom of allowing the mob to write the encyclopedia but it's interesting how some aspects of a topic are reliable and useful while other aspects are so widely off the mark. (My prediction is that Wikipedia will move over the next few years, to a three tier system of anyone, editors and admins. Although as a friend of mine pointed out, until they overcome their naive notions of neutrality and concede things read better from a particular viewpoint, Wikipedia will be stalled.) For example take a look at this sample from Soteriology (May 2009):

Soteriology
Quite Reasonable= Union with Christ, Justification
Need drastic improvement= Mortification Sanctification
A lack of reliable information =Regeneration
