I don't think Price's updated version of Carter's Lovecraft: A Look Behind the Cthulhu Mythos was ever published. Confirmation may be rquired. 83.254.63.123 ( talk) 20:29, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
I added the following for balance: In addition, Christian apologist James Patrick Holding criticized Price's works in a number of essays. [1] ken 00:46, 12 November 2006 (UTC)kdbuffalo
Is James Patrick Holding a good source for critique? Mr Price is a scholar and Holding, I believe, is not. Link should be removed IMHO. 80.213.177.249 23:51, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
The fact that Holding had his article deleted makes a better case for deleting his link. Maybe it could be moved down to External Links? Nareek 16:12, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
The article has an internal link to yet to be published Johnnie Colemon Theological Seminary Wikipedia article.

Image:Robert M Price.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I've had a go with this article. I've culled a lot of stuff in Theology section because one argument was unsourced, and the other I thought went on after the point had been made. The previous article was here [3]. I've left the tags. Has anyone got any negative critism about this guy? Edgepedia ( talk) 08:28, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

The article currently begins with, "Robert McNair Price (born July 7, 1954 in Mississippi) is Professor of Theology and Scriptural Studies at Johnnie Colemon Theological Seminary, an unaccredited school in Carol City, Florida governed by a New Thought organisation known as the Universal Foundation for Better Living". Now, I have no reason to doubt that any of this is true. Dr. Price is a professor at an unaccredited school, presumably because he has been unable to find a suitable position at a more prestigious school, which says more about American academe's shortcoming's that Price's. However, there's a serious undue weight issue here. It's true that Price's bona fides are not established by his teaching position. The solution, then, is not to derogate his teaching position in the intro and imply that he might be a New Thought-ist (I don't know but I doubt that he is). Instead, let's just describe him as a scholar and author, and leave the details of his role as professor to a later section.— Nat Krause( Talk!· What have I done?) 23:11, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
