It’s about dicks being offended when dicks are thrown at their face, walking out, coming back with privileges, having a dick free zone, still being dicks outside of their zone, and bragging about it. But whatever. This might be the last I’ll say about this. No promises, though, so don’t quote me.

I get where you’re coming from, but I can’t help but think this is going to level the playing field in a very revealing way. Some theists in this group are better at civility than others, and some of them tend to resort to insults when their points are refuted.  So, now EVEYONE has to play by the same rules.  Theists have to keep it civil and actually address the rebuttal if and when someone proves a point of theirs wrong, and Atheists have to follow by these same rules as well, so noone can cry, “the atheists didn’t want to talk; they were just mean to me!”  I think it’s going to be interesting, if nothing else.

Edit: Just to clarify, I didn’t mean that the people who object to the subforum itself are being snowflakes.  Valid points have been made on both sides of the argument.  I am talking about the people who want it hidden from the forum at large because they don’t even want to have to see it.  I think that’s a bit ridiculous, frankly.

The wanktards are already trying to control the rules over there. It is blatantly apparent that the likes of wooters, am, a theist or cl wanted that section not to have polite debate, but to control what could be debated, how it could be debated and what refutations the opposition could use.
