Opinion contrary to established doctrine
Gay
Steadfast, unyielding

Some guesses:
Acquitted excused
Opinion contrary to established doctrine This is the classic definition of heresy, so I possibly am confused as to the theme, which I thought was words with X in them.
Gay homosexual
Steadfast, unyielding inexorable? inflexible? fixed?
Respite, repose exculpation?
Lower mandible maxilla
Scorsese film Taxi Driver?
Advanced figure skating maneuver axel
Fear of foreigners xenophobia |

You know I was thinking, since X means ten, and each word has ten letters, but there are only nine words, I think we could be supposed to make a tenth word from an anagram of the first letters of the first nine. No idea though. _________________ Prohibit nothing. Disclose everything. |

Hey, those last letters spell adrenal, which is pretty Xtreme. I still feel we're missing something though... _________________ Prohibit nothing. Disclose everything. |

With "heterodoxy" instead of "unorthodox", the last letters when sorting as referee suggested spell out "adrenally". Which is sort of a weird answer word, but then last letters are a tough place to hide a message.  _________________ "I am now telling the computer exactly what it can do with a lifetime supply of chocolate..." |
