Founded by Dadmanly (a conservative Born-Again Christian stationed in Iraq) and Liberal Avenger (an unabashed Berkeley-educated liberal atheist in Massachusetts). BW, new to Debate Space, has volunteered as a "left voice" for the Debate Space. He's Canadian, voted NDP (a socialist party), and a believing Christian of the Protestant variety.
Somewhere along the way Debate Space had comments for Registered Users only. Don;t know when that came about, but it's since been corrected. Comments are now open to anyone, with a word verification to help cut down on comment spam.

A Canadian gentleman by the moniker BW has graciously volunteered as a "left voice" for Debate Space. Until such time as BW can properly introduce himself, let me pass along some of his Blogger Profile, the entirety of which you can access by following the lnk:
I'm somewhat left of centre, more so on some matters than others...I vote for the NDP, our quasi-socialist (not communist folks, socialist) party most of the time. I'm a believing Christian of the Protestant variety. I'm annoyed both by Christians on the right who feel I can't be both Christian and 'progressive', and by atheists/agnostics on the left who don't like to accept me as "one of their own" because I go to church, believe in Jesus and treat the bible as scripture rather than myth or dubious history.Based on his initial (unofficial) response to my post here on a recent Christopher Hitchens' column, I think we'll enjoy ourselves immensely discussing a wide variety of topics, military, political and religious.
