No one asked for a “safe space”. This was the interpretation of some to a request for a civil section of the forum where civility would be enforced and serious discussions could be had. The conclusion seemed to be, that civility, accurately representing another’s position, and not demeaning others is too much an encumbrance to the atheists view and that it was just a tactic to silence them and not allow questioning. Again; no one was asking for a safe space, but a civil one.

Correct. And for anyone wondering, this is the thread in question where I made the suggestion for a civility subsection geared towards productive discussion among both atheists and theists alike: https://atheistforums.org/thread-54693.html

As far as the debate thread between myself and 5 other Christians, that was a completely separate thing. We were utilizing the debate section of the forum, and Tibs and Vulcan were moderating the debate. Anyone can utilize the debate section. It has nothing to do with safe spaces.

Anyway, that's all.
"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."
