How does the proposed newsgroup change their attitude? Gee. I cannot imagine
how you call could have a successful discussion in alt.atheism. Do you think
you'd get good tips for training dogs by posting such a message to a
newsgroup for cat owners, er, servants?

I'm very much in favor of a forum wherein the creationist morons can
discuss their rubbish, especially if it will keep them out of here.

Such groups are called NIMBY groups. In unmoderated Usenet, the proponent of
a NIMBY group cannot force those posting on a topic he doesn't approve of to
change their posting habits.
talk.origins is moderated. As far as I know, intelligent design isn't off
topic, so a NIMBY group wouldn't work there either.

Strictly speaking that's precisely talk.origins' role.
