The mention of the word “Protestant” by definition means this can’t be labeled a caucus thread, even if no Protestant practices were specifically mentioned.

I made a suggestion to marshmallow that perhaps the thread should have been labeled caucus and that seemed to cause a free for all, which was not my intent.

So what are the precise guidelines for open vs. caucus threads?

To qualify for a "caucus" thread, the article and reply posts must not mention the beliefs of non-members because non-members must be able to speak for themselves.

A historical fact is not enough to disqualify an article from being a caucus, e.g. Martin Luther was a priest who died in the 1500's.
