Sounds to me like it might be time to shut it down. AFAIC it was barely a good idea to begin with.
They're using the debate section of the forum. The proposed "safe zone" has not been created. As long as they debate different subjects (and they all have to have differing views and actually debate them, imo), they're using that section correctly. Staff is still discussing the "civil section." That thread is not it.
IMO it is up to the debate moderator to keep the focus of the discussion on topic. A_Theist's post ninja'd mine so I wasn't able to comment on it as outside the topic. If we, or any group, want to debate other issues within an invitation only setting those should be their own threads and generally respect the debate format however loosely.
