"Divisive topics and posts, particularly those that seek input from or are relevant only to a select group of users, are better placed within an appropriate Group rather than the Main Forums. For example, topics relevant to only one religion should not be placed on the main forums but rather within a group related to that religion."

These types of threads rarely end well… and these types of topics are more suited for private groups.

I agree that they don't usually end well, but given the topic name of the thread I don't think it's any better of an idea for people to respond and bash it if it doesn't pertain to them.

Thing is…. this is a public forum and people are free to respond as they see fit. In addition, there are community guidelines.

The God who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless. He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights. He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. Psalm 18:32-34

"I urge you, brothers and sisters, to offer yourselves up as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable. For this is to be your spiritual act of worship. And do not be conformed to the ways of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind and body, so that you may know the perfect and just Will of God." --- Romans 12:1-2

"Now to Him who by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think." Ephesians 3:20

That is my all time favorite. I don't know the author of the following but it is powerful as well: "THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO IS TO KEEP GOING. Failure is temporary. Giving up is permanent.

This has nothing to do with "One Religion," or any belief in religion. She simply asked for quotes from a book. This is not a "divisive" topic. You do not have to be religious to know a bible verse, or use that verse as motivation.

The motivation request was for a bible verse or any other quotation, meaning anyone or any religion or any philosophy.
