Public Forum, October Topic: Poverty Reduction vs. Environmental Protection
NOTE: Disregard any contextual inaccuracies (my partner and I) that result from the direct usage of in-round formalities within both debaters' first respective speeches. To my opponent: feel free to copy and paste your in-tournament PRO case if you already have one prepared. In resonance with Public Forum conduct, I ask my opponent to exclude any attempts of refutation in his first speech. Resolution: When in conflict, the UN should prioritize global poverty reduction over environmental p...
God is not real.
I will demonstrate that it is logically impossible for a God to exist if that God is defined as being both omniscient and omnipotent. In the same way that married bachelors and square circles cannot exist a God that is claimed to be both omniscient and omnipotent cannot exist. It's an old argument, but it should still be pretty fun to debate. ============== A quick syllogism: ============== 1. Anything with logically incompatible properties cannot exist. (This is not arguable) 2. Any Go...
Biblical descriptions of the nature of the Christian God and free will are contradictory.
I'm thinking of running this as a stock Parli case, so I thought I'd give it a test run. The proposition for offer is that the concepts of the nature of God and the mechanics of free will as described in the Bible are contradictory. The existence of God or free will are considered opposing premises and are not up for dispute themselves; rather, Con must prove that the two are logically compatible. God is classically described as an all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-loving being that creat...

A Logical Person Would Believe In God
I stand in affirmation of the resolution: A Logical Person Would Believe In God. I will be a proponent of Pascal's Wager In this life we will have to decide whether or not we will believe in a God/Gods/God-like entity. If we truly think about the situation, and make a logical choice about it, we should believe in God. Why? This is why: If you are an atheist, and you turn out to be right, what do you gain? Answer: Well, you really gain nothing. Based on the largely atheist b...
