The first, “Do you believe.....” question makes it personal. That’s what I have a problem with.

Like, "Why do you worship Mary?" and "Why do you believe the Pope above Christ?". A lot are equivalent to the "Have you stopped beating your wife?" line of questioning.

Exactly.
I had a poster (that actually I admire greatly) go at the dogma questions on a thread that was (again) misquoting the Pope.

I just stated simply, that I was not debating dogma, I was correcting the misquote by the AP.

I’m not getting into the dogma debate with anyone. If they ask me a “Why do you believe...?” question, that is personal. It happens many times on Catholic threads. That’s why the Catholic Caucus title was put on.

When we have a thread about plexiglass on confessionals and a poster on the third post wants to slam confession, it seems real personal.
