| Question | — |
Are comments a platform for debate? One of the concerns about allowing questions to ask for any perspective when asking theological questions is that it can turn voting into a popularity contest and spark debate that generates more heat than light. This answer recently provided an example. In the question, the OP stated he is non-Ca... (more) |

A: What are the major problems that Chalcedonians have with Miaphysite Christology? It's important to note that: Monophysitism was not only condemned at the Council of Chalcedon, but also at subsequent councils. Much ecumenical dialogue has attempted to distinguish monophysitism proper from miaphysitism by associating the former with Eutyches (who was condemned in the Counci... (more) |

A: What's on and off topic? I propose that this should be off topic: Who’s in or out / saved? I think this is problematic unless tied to a specific tradition (and even then may require some consideration). (more) |

True, but also, what this community will look like. It doesn’t necessarily have to look like Somewhere Else at all or even share scope decisions with _either_ site (although I think some wisdom can be gleaned and learned from). (more) |

Peter, I suspect the majority of questions (and answers) will be from a non-denominational Protestant perspective (which could mean just about anything, but the authority model is generally consistent). (more) |

Peter, I’m not opposed to that, but that’s what forums are for, not Q&A sites. So I’m leery. Usually Q&A is not discussion. It’s finite answers. (more) |

The other interesting thing we have in Christianity is groups that claim to have no tradition/bias ("We just believe the Bible!"), and there is a bit of discussion about this on another community (see, e.g., https://christianity.meta.stackexchange.com/q/1438/1304). (more) |

I also happen to be a part of one of those minority perspectives as a member of an Eastern/Byzantine Christian tradition, so this would not be "contrived" for me to answer in such a way. (more) |

This is great input, thanks! I definitely don't want to fall into the trap of "We have to do it the way [that other community] did it." My concern is that mainstream (evangelical Protestant) views will be upvoted and minority perspectives downvoted simply based on agreement/disagreement and popularit... (more) |

For example: Protestant, non-denominational: The Bible alone (defined as the 66-book, traditional Protestant canon). Protestant, Lutheran: This differs depending on the specific Lutheran denomination, but ... (more) |

| Question | — |
Questions about theology, doctrine, philosophy We're off to a great start and even have our first question! The question provokes some interesting questions about scope that I figured it'd be best to raise here for the community to discuss. Typically, questions that are theological/doctrinal/philosophical in nature should specify a specific tr... (more) |
