Hello et. al.
I don't think that the intent to to exclude "help" from people, but the purpose of "Outreach" is to help seekers see their problems in respect to biblical teachings.
One may "help" another person by administering "prozac"... but that isn't covered in biblical teachings. One may "help" by giving humanistic advice, or in holistic medicine, but that isn't biblical teaching either.
"There's a time for every purpose under heaven"... and this time and purpose is for an outreach tool for seekers. If people wanted the advice of those outside Christianity, then there would be no purpose for posting in "Questions in Christianity".
I don't think that is meant to be, or should be taken to be an insult, but unless one can respond to "Questions in Christianity" with Christian answers, then perhaps they should be posting in "unorthodox Christianity"?
