In fact, what defines the SvP forum is its hosting of challenges/debates/discussions between those who hold differing viewpoints related to the primary content of the forum. So...
...no: the forum currently abbreviated as SvP, and now proposed to be renamed based on a replacing of "skeptic" with "opponent", is, indeed, the best place for a debate along the lines of the Hyman v Honorton debate.
Whilst it is the only place where "blanket denial" is accepted on Psience Quest, it is neither encouraged nor defining of that subforum.
In that case I have been misunderstanding.
If there's not meant to be discussion in the main section between "those who hold differing viewpoints related to the primary content of the forum" I'm not sure I should be posting there!
