Should we not post to caucus threads?

Some caucus hosts object when a poster of another confession shows up, even if (s)he behaves as if in the other's church. Some don't.

FWIW

IMHO, the point of this thread is to understand Anselm and to do a sort of compare/contrast or "highlight the tricky/controversial bits" NOT to say, "I'm right and he's wrong for this that and the other reason."

According to my increasingly fallible recollection, among the antecedents to this series of posts were earlier conversations/threads where different views of the "Work of Christ" were presented, with considerable heat and not so much light. So at least as far as I'm concerned the value here is to look at an early scholastic apology and to stack it up against other attempts to understand just what it is Christ did and why.

So as long as the posts are along the lines of "Oh, So I guess Anselm thinks this, and I think that, and look at this interesting and possibly important difference," I personally wouldn't object to any poster.

I clarified in my posting comment that I welcome everyone, so long as the posts stay on topic and avoid confrontational tone. I welcome specifically this discussion of free will to be open to non-Caucus members, as it is at the heart of many divisions in the Christian community.
