On a devotion thread, inquiries may be taken as challenges (disruptions) and cause offense. Therefore, do not ask questions on a devotional thread - make a note, save them for the open threads.

I'm not sure that "Devotionals" should be able to go unchallenged when they attack the beliefs of others.

Personally, I feel that if a devotional thread wants to preach that the Bible is corrupt and has had "plain and precious truths" removed, that should be their right. It's not necessarily respectful, but I think the marketplace of ideas is big enough for everyone to have a forum. IMO, the problem seems to lie in the the fact that one group is allowed to attack my beliefs in a "devotional thread" but will not allow dissent. And if that's so, it would seem to be a double standard on the part of the former.

I'm just voicing my opinion on an open thread.
