Dogma is een filosofische benadering van het geloof. Ik ben regelmatig gebruiker van de site en een meer liberale kijk op dit onderwerp lijkt/leek mij meer neutraal. Vele onderwerpen lijken mij door jullie neutraal gebracht. Ik denk de bezoeker met dit (neutraal) evenwicht dit subject meer objectief te benaderen. Fredom (overleg) 24 mrt 2014 03:41 (CET) Veel bronnen werden door de Kerk van Rome (intertijd) verbannen tot hun eigen bibliotheek, vandaar is bron melding vaak moeilijk. Fredom (overleg) 24 mrt 2014 03:41 (CET) Mvg, Ik ben er van overtuigd dat een (Wikipedia) gebruiker (en velen voor het nageslacht) objectiviteit verdiend. Mvg, Fredom (overleg) 24 mrt 2014 03:44 (CET)

Het is weer die tijd van het jaar. Tijd voor de jaarlijkse herbevestiging! In april 2014 staat ook uw moderatorschap ter beoordeling aan de gemeenschap. U kunt desgewenst een verklaring toevoegen aan uw kopje in deze herbevestiging. Indien u niet wenst uw moderatorschap voort te zetten kunt u ook vrijwillig uw moderatorschap stopzetten.

Ik wens u veel succes bij deze herbevestiging.
Met vriendelijke groet, de coördinator van deze herbevestiging,
