I think that some should go back to read what the proposed topic was.

I vote Vulcan for our moderator. If he would agree, and if no mod volunteers I guess.

I'm actually honored by your nomination. A moderator would probably be better suited to the job though, given their privileges. Also, I've never moderated a debate before, but I've participated in enough that I might do okay at it. In any case, thanks for thinking I'd do a good job with it.

Of course! I like you. You are level headed and objective.

So here are my proposed rules:

1 - Only one post per day but post can be as long as you want. That will limit the amount of back and forth chattiness.
2 - No using the quote function. Respond to each other by restating/paraphrasing the points made by others. That preserves the debate format.
3 - "Wall Street Journal" rule - language must conform to the editorial standards of a respected journal.

We'll have to select a moderator. Maybe some mod will volunteer.

Even though participation is limited to Christians, all AF members will be able to read and follow our discussion. However, I feel that it would be good to openly discuss the topic amongst ourselves. That's fine with me. I could just do without the heckling and having to explain myself to hecklers. I imagine a parallel thread formed to mock us but that's okay so long as they make enough popcorn for everyone.

All kidding aside, I think this is a very good idea. I've often wondered what motivates Christians to join atheist websites (and vicy-versy). I'd be interested to learn how you view yourselves and your role here. I hope it works out.

Good idea. Then Christians can stop posting on the rest of the forum Tongue

Yum! All the Christians in the one spot!
