You raise a good point. It can mean different things for different people, and I'm sure there are many Christians out there who would say *I* (CL) am definitely NOT devout and practicing lol. So let's say, if a person considers themselves devout and practicing, then you can take it to mean as much for the poll question.

Also, I honestly did not mean for the question to be loaded, and am not sure what is making it come off that way to you. In what other way could I have asked the question so that it would not be loaded?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
