I'm not convinced it is a good idea to copy templates like this from Wikipedia. There are a number of reasons for this, including: (1) WikiChristian should look different from Wikipedia; (2) Rather than have this template, important sub-topics should be put in the infobox that sits on the right-hand side of any information article; (3) Deciding what should go in these sort of templates is difficult given it could be linked to from many different pages; (4) It isn't clear what pages should be linked to it; If these reasons don't make much sense, then I'll expand on them and explain in more detail, but basically, I don't think we should copy any of the "Part of a series on" templates over. Rather we should: (1) Write good articles that have the appropriate links within the text itself; (2) Put internal links that are appropriate for the specific page in the infobox on the right side; (3) Make use of "Index" pages when appropriate.
