The idea was that scientific challenges would not be prohibited there, but that answers would not require the meeting of scientific criteria as the science forums do, could even be answered with a flat statement of belief, as Jar puts it, or no answer at all, with impunity.
Oh, well then. Hey, here's an idea - why don't we have a forum where we can spout off literally any nonsense whatsoever, and if someone tries to call it nonsense, we can ban 'em for hurting our feelings?
This is why creationism will never be taken seriously, Faith. If it can't stand up to the cruel and pointed inquiry that every other scientific theory must withstand, if the only way it can be advanced is alongside a stacked deck of rules that say we can't criticize it, no one with any sense will ever take it, or you, seriously.
It's like you're showing up for the World Series and demanding that you be allowed to enter, only your side gets to play Tee-ball and the other side doesn't get to have shoes.
If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. I don't see that mainstream science is under any obligation to tie one hand behind its back so that creationists aren't made to feel like idiots.
