Editorial policy

Scroll My Faith is built for discovery across religious traditions. Our goal is to make short-form scripture browsing easier without hiding where a passage comes from or implying that different religions teach the same doctrine.

Source first

Every passage should identify its scripture, citation, language and translation or source edition. The current English starter corpus favors historical public-domain translations so the wording can be shown transparently and attributed consistently.

Traditions stay distinct

Topic pages may place passages from different traditions near one another, but similarity in words such as peace, truth, compassion or duty does not mean identical theology. We label each tradition clearly and encourage readers to continue into the surrounding text and reliable commentary.

Translation transparency

Original-language text and translated text are not treated as interchangeable. Where a modern-language rendering is not drawn from a named historical edition, it is labeled as a Scroll My Faith rendering so readers know what they are seeing.

Context before certainty

The Study feature and our articles aim to explain literary setting, theme and basic context. They are introductions, not substitutes for full scripture study, scholarship or guidance from a qualified religious teacher.

Corrections and improvements

Scripture attribution and translation quality matter. As the corpus grows, pages may be updated to improve citations, wording, context and language support. Substantive updates are reflected in the site sitemap so search engines can recrawl changed pages.

AI-assisted publishing

AI tools may assist with drafting, coding or organization, but the site is designed around identifiable source texts, explicit attribution and human-readable editorial rules rather than automatically generated pages created only to target search terms.
