I suppose I could ask this in any forum I go into on a regular basis but I'll ask here because you guys and gals are among the most truthful people on this site. (By the way, I rarely get 10 points for best answer in LBGT -- I just enjoy the exchange of knowledge here.) It appears to me that some people choose a best answer that has nothing to do with their question. Others will chose one that validates their philosophical point of view, even though the answer is blantantly incorrect. Others don't choose a best answer and some answers earn ten points just because of one vote. Does this type of thing ever make you wonder?

No, I never try to give the best answer....people will generally choose one that validates their opinion..or gives them pause for thought...but I've even had a best answer from someone who said I was the biggest loser in the answers LOL...so who knows.

Sometimes, even if you state a question very carefully, no one will get it or answer it exactly in the spirit you asked it.
When this happens, you have to shrug and award a best, if you want to close the question. At that point, the process becomes a coin-toss, or something very whimsical, like making up a chat or message board ID off the top of your head in 30 seconds.
I assume most bests are awarded without any weighty deliberation on the part of the asker.

We'll never really know what the thought process is of the person choosing the best answer unless we are that person. When the asker doesn't choose, a best answer is chosen on positive votes versus negative votes. Even if an answer has only one positive vote, it could win. I don't let that bother me.

It's just for fun, nothing more. If you see some of the questions on here you just can't take them seriously. Also some people have multiple identies and vote for their own answer so even the best answer isn't always the actual best answer, its just someone trying to rack up points. Yes believe it or not there are individuals on here who are actually that sad!.

the main important flaw on your line of reasoning is which you're treating the Bible as no count if it is one e book, which that is not, quite of a number of of books, that's what it is. Telling people who they'd desire to manage each and each e book interior the Bible the same way is like telling a man or woman who they'd desire to flow with no count if or not an entire library of books on one undertaking would desire to be taken actually, or as fiction, historic previous, or previous regulations for different international locations, and that to declare some are one undertaking at the same time as the others are some thing else is being a hypocrite, or preserving a double elementary. each e book interior the Bible ought to be judged one after the different, to make certain their worth, and additionally area-by potential of-area with the the remainder of the Bible. The Levitical regulations, as an occasion, have been binding purely for Jews, at the same time as the histories of Genesis and Exodus (alongside with Chronicles and Kings) instruct why those regulations have been needed. Gentiles at the instant are not and characteristic in no way been under Jewish regulations, yet like American historic previous is important for human beings to income, it is likewise important for Gentiles to renowned the historic previous at the back of Jesus. that is defined interior the NT which "regulations" Gentiles are expected to stick to. we are under the ten Commandments, summed up into 2 by potential of Jesus (love God, love one yet another), and we are to abstain from sexual immorality and ingesting blood. previous that, we at the instant are not under any regulations in besides. Why? lower back: via fact the regulations interior the OT have been a covenant that grow to be purely binding to Jews. or perhaps Jews do not stick to it thoroughly, previous the nutritional regulations and the cleansing rituals. They now not stone human beings, nor do they sacrifice animals. examining theology or perhaps purely taking some Christian historic previous training would easily make it easier to to comprehend this. and doubtless examining the NT too, in case you're at it. All of this has been defined repeatedly by potential of distinctive theologians, the two interior and outdoors the Bible.

no. not really. everyone has a choice and it depends on that person what's his choice. whether or not it refers to his question, its still up to him. afterall, everybody can choose his own best answer.
