I would like to see questions that are asked more open ended to be less strict with answers. IMO I think it would create strong community to be able to have answers on more open ended questions from different denominations and backgrounds.

However where a question asks for a specific denominational view, or let's say, only a view explicitly on scripture (although obviously denom. may color this) the answer should be specific as to the question.

To me it should be more the responsibility of the asker to ensure that the question is pointed enough to make it clear the type of response she would like to receive.
