Can't any of the mods do this?
He requested a debate moderator. A forum moderator has nothing specifically to do withthe former. A debate moderator creates the debate thread, creates a discussion thread, moderates audience participation if desired, introduces the individuals, sets the rules for posting, keeps it on track, keeps the timeline, delcares the debate over, etc.
It still requires the forum admins to grant debaters (and in this case the moderator too) permission to post in the thread. That's the only thing we're waiting for. As I've submitted the request for the 3 of us to have permission to the sub-forum, I'm assuming with lucent's posting priveleges in check there is probably a discussion going on backstage about this. Once I have authroization to post we'll get it started.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
