Overall, do you like Christians being here?

As to the civility subsection, my motivation for it is for civil discussion and has nothing to do with preaching. I've said this many times.

Problem is that not everyone believes that it will turn out that way. The worry amongst some atheists is that some theists (not necessarily you) will complain about posts which they deem offensive because they attack their core beliefs. It is easy to be offensive yet stay civil. Some see this as the thin end of the wedge whereby some christians will end up using whatever excuse to shut down debate and promote themselves to become a form of protected as happens outside the forum (e,g, as happens with blasphemy laws)

Whether this happens or not depends on how it is moderated but it is certainly a possibility. But having a thread for christians only where atheists are not allowed to post certainly hasn't helped the perception.
