It isn't about "not wanting to get his feelings hurt" or needing a "safe space". Pretty much the same reason I suggested a civility subforum.
I knew that eventually someone would compare this to a "safe space". I can see why except there is a difference. There is no attempt to shelter the participants from criticism. Anyone can read, observe, and if they so desire comment and critique the discussion on a parallel thread. I would encourage it. CL is correct. I am hoping for a deeper exploration by Christians as to why Christians in general should participate on AF and our individual reasons for doing so...warts and all.
I guess we should have a peanut gallery for it or whatever the term is.
And yeah, it's not a safe space. As hilarious as I find it I think it's a good idea.
