It's not that it's dangerous; rather,in my opinion, this is a way to assure
that one will never really learn Greek.

There's nothing wrong with the question itself. Our FAQ lists, among other
legitimate topics for list-exploration:
"--Resources for teaching and learning (Biblical) Greek: lexica, grammars,
morphological charts, web-sites, discussion-lists, etc.--including answers
to questions raised by beginners, whether they are working their own way
through a Greek textbook or studying Greek formally in schools"
The FAQ is accessible at: http://ibiblio.org/bgreek.faq.txt
