It's a noble idea.
It won't work though. There is too much infighting at these forums to allow a place for non-believers. A very large portion of the membership here is unable to have a polite exchange without it descending into a grudge match within 3 or 4 posts. Those same people would only attack non-believers instead of encourage them, not to mention they wouldn't serve as good examples of what it means to be Christian.

There is somehow a false notion that the individual names of each forum here mean something. They don't. (unless maybe it is the Poetry or Technical forum)
Just post in any forum you choose, and it will be seen by all of us. You'll probably be equally attacked, no matter which forum you choose. LOL

I suggest just communicating with people on a friendship level and get to know them and let them get to know you. There's more to be learned from just sharing and witnessing each other's daily lives than in getting bombarded in the Bible Discussion Forum.
There are a great number of things we disagree about, it seems to me. I don't know if you'd find that helpful or harmful.

That is the work of the Holy Spirit working on their lives. We can help if we allow God to speak through us in love.
However it is more powerful to a nonbeliever to see Christians living like Jesus and loving like Jesus than be able to preach or give perfect doctrine...Paul said without love all the spiritual gifts and wisdom was just clanging cymbals.
Before we should seek to teach anyone, we must let them know how much we truly love them, even when they hate us.
I think it all depends on how you put it. If someone comes here just to troll or sow discord then people are right to kick his bum. On the other hand, a polite and unbiased inquirer is mostly welcomed by polite and unbiased people everywhere. I am yet to meet any impolite member here. All have answered my tough questions with utmost patience and compassion. Thanks to them.

You want a Christin forum to have a section for other faiths/ atheists?
Why not ask a muslim or atheist forum to have a Christians section

I thought every forum on here were opposing views forum...
Hummm.... I don't think I see that the same way you do.
That's because (some) admin probably feel the same way we do- that several forums here have opposing views.. lol

They've probably got other things to do. The marjority of suggestions here are things it wouldn't make sense to implement
.... and the good ideas are normally about things which ebulletin would have to implement
this IS a Christian site. Why should we host atheist / other religions views?
