Yeah, but a lot of times people are interested in discussion, not a one on one debate. It would be cool if there was a section for civil discussion.
AM, I think it's worth starting a thread about this on the suggestion subforum. I can go ahead and do that, unless you want to since it was your idea?

Probably not. While there are occasional calls for more serious discussion, really most of the atheists want to belittle and feel superior to theists.
Rules enforcement would be another problem with such a section. People would push the boundaries, and mods would have more issues to deal with. In the end the section would probably devolve into something not much different from what we already have.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
