The U.S. federal government should increase social services for persons in poverty.
Hello. I am hoping that this will be debated in a CX fashion. I would like to forewarn my opponent that I will only be pasting card title and source when I post my case, simply for sake of space. If card legitimacy comes up I will happily post the full cards. I will begin with my case and then a basic summary. Thank you for whomever accepts my debate. The thesis of this case is that SNAP is an extremely successful program that only needs more expansion. Ir works perfectly with the people it...
The Cosmological Argument (CA) Increases the Possibility of a God or Gods
Whomever decides to accept this debate must show that the cosmological argument isn't something that significantly (if at all) increases the possibility of there being a god or gods. I would assume this would be accomplished by disproving the CA. Thanks! The Cosmological Argument is as follows: 1. Everything that had a beginning had a cause. The Law of Causality is a fundamental principle in science. See *1 for more info. Even David Hume admitted, "I never asserted to absurd a preposition...

Captial Punishment Doesnt Go Far Enough
Hello Debate.org I am debating to affirm the resolution that the only effective way to prevent crime is to enact a pre-death penalty. Now let me explain what I mean by a "pre-death penalty" is means in its most basic form that anyone who is likely to commit a crime should be put to death. The way that it would reduce crime is that it would act as a determent and people wouldn't even think of committing a crime OK,Thank You Bye...

Acronyms should have a period mark after each letter, instead of there just being the letters.
I believe acronyms should always have a period mark after each letter, because, centrally, of two reasons. (1) Acronyms, originally, had been presented in this format. I am not much of a traditionalist, but origin is important for some things, language being one of them. The origin of a language shows the true characteristics of that language, and thus how to, in veritable correctness, speak, write, read, etc. that language.(2) The period marks differentiate the letters, they emphasize their ind...
It is ok to recycle arguments.
I think that it is ok, since you are the one who wrote the information. You should have the right to do what you want with your work, as long as you use it wisely. I mean, you don't want to use the same things over and over again do you? I thought not. you should NOT be looked down on just because you use the same work twice! I wish to thank whoever takes this debate, that this should be interesting. Definition: Recycle-cause to repeat a cycle use again after processing; "We must recycle...
All your base are belong to us.
Upon accepting this debate CON must agree with the Framework. ============ Framework ============ Base: Fundamental principle or groundwork, framework of the round. Us: We debaters, my opponent and I. ============ Arguments ============ You do not own the base. I took it from Dicitonary.com [1]. But even they do not own the base, this is because they have not copyrighted the words I used. So base belongs to all. Also the base of the round is not mutually exclusive, it is us...
Resolved: All 50 states should constitute a noise ordinance for vehicles that play loud music.
We've all heard it, ear splitting loud music coming from a car driving down a quiet residential street, or maybe from across the parking lot at a public beach. Loud music is a distraction to others and may effect the way others drive. it can also be dangerous in an emergency. Contention 1: Source -http://www.muni.org/Departments/police/traffic/Pages/LoudMusic.aspx My first contention is that it can cause danger to other drivers on the road. One thing everyone learns in driving school is...
