I agree. The religious forums I've been a member of in the past have all allowed atheists and discussions about the possibility of God not existing, etc. So long as the intention was to have respectful discussion/disagreement, not to go on there and start bashing their faith.
Well one example would be, would you be allowed to ask awkward questions... or point out contradictions etc? From a theist perspective I'd imagine that a lot of the questions we ask are what you might call pedantic/splitting hairs... but from an atheist point of view (well from my point of view at least) those sorts of questions are perfectly valid and shouldn't be glossed over.
