 BEST OF THE CHRISTIAN WEB This site is A LOT more conservative and evangelical than is my usual wont, but there are some interesting and learned people here, and the discussions can be fascinating. This is NOT the place to go if you are sensitive about people taking potshots at your religious views, but it's worth a visit if you are a conservative evangelical Christian, or if you enjoy a good debate.  Your ISP is recorded when you post, so don't come here looking to spam or start a flame war, or you could lose your internet service!  Not for everybody, but interesting for some.  Try the Apologetics and Miscellaneous boards,  for starters.
