Yes. I'm tired of loaded questions having to do with religion. (I've made such a question before and regret it.)

What's your point, SH?....:-D....
-
YES , The ones that come right out and ask for them of course and a few other ones as well + up
-
What, like this one?

i say freedom of speech, and if you don't want to answer the question then eh

I don't think they should. Just don't try to force your point on the answerers. Accept their answers, and maybe learn something from them, instead of trying to nail home the point.

I don't think so, as this is an opportunity for discussion. The person who has the question has a point of view as well. I like to hear it and either support or disclaim the position taken. The difficulty occurs when a person is penalized for stating their own opinion, but we already have this problem to contend with.

No, questions that try and make points encourage debate, debate encourages a strong and vibrant community, how could that be a bad thing for AB?
-
No. In my opinion the only questions that should be rejected are ones that are blatantly offensive. Most questions that are asked with the sole intention of getting across the views of the asker tend to get shot down by most of the answerers anyway.
-
No. That can lead to interesting debates.

Questions trying to make a point are some of the best questions on here in my opinion. If worded well, they can illict stong feelings and get passionate answers from many viewpoints. Quesions seeking to recieve points should be barred - but there is not a way to police that.
