"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." - Albert Einstien
Since the original idea of Evolutionism is still unproven (man from ape), it is just as debatable as Christianity, or any other religion for that matter. Things do evolve, but there is no proof for evolution. I feel the OP, if his goal is to get that kind of evolutionism to be banned, would be a logical thing to go after. Why agree upon something that isn't even universally agreed upon as fact? If we cannot discuss the validity of a religion next to unproven and what appears to be a dwindlingly supported scientific theory, then why discuss either? They are both just as valid as the other one.
Anything that is supported by facts isn't debatable, because it is something that is universally agreed upon as being the truth. Of course, then there would be no point of having a discussion board if we only discussed non-negotiable facts.

This thread pretty much shows why religous debates are prohibited. Ive already seen several people call atheists ignorant and stuck up for not sharing their own view on things.
More on topic, its a balance. If people just would have been able to accept that we´re not all thinking alike there wouldnt be a problem, thats not even possible in real life though and its sure as hell not possible in a community where the majority of members are in their mid teens and doesnt have a clue on whats going on in the world or why things are the way they are today.
We stated something that is from our experience, and in no way said it was fact for everyone. I even said that most atheists I RAN INTO, not all of them, but most. You can take my word for it or not. But please don't accuse me of stereotyping. I try my best not to make my personal experiences sound like stereotype, but it doesn't end up that way.
Calling teens ignorant is also stereotypical in itself, so maybe you should stop being hypocritical. Anyways, before this gets anymore degraded into throwing around generalized insults, may we throw our egos and competitive nature aside? Teens are smarter than you give them credit for. It is the adults who end up being more ignorant than most people assume. Age really has nothing to do with how ingorant you are, more your upbringing and motivation to learn what is going on around you.
