You are free to disagree, but to not understand our objections is to not act reasonably. We only want those who share our faith to commune with us. Why is that so hard to udnerstand?
We believe that those who do not agree with us risk their souls in communing under false pretenses. So we ask them not to.

Disagree with our beliefs if you will, but understand whay we do what we do.

And my question, which you did not answer, is whether the verse you cite is subject to a different interpretation than the one you give to it. Your lack of an answer all but answers that question.
My last question is intended to determine what your interpretation actually means. What is "discern"? What does it look like? Taste like? Smell like? Or is it a spiritual feeling, a sense of communion with God?
Of course, you didn't answer that one either.
