Same-sex marriage should be legal in the United States

FourTrouble

In this debate, I will argue for the position that the United States government should legalize same-sex marriage. I am well-aware that the topic has been beaten beyond death, so in my desire to breathe some life into it, I will be offering a traditionalist/conservative defense of same-sex marriage.

For the purposes of this debate, same-sex marriage will be defined as a legally recognized contract between two individuals of the same gender that gra...

There is an Ideal Opening Move in Chess

Grape




Resolved:
There is an ideal opening move in chess.

Chess is this game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess

An opening move is the first move made by either Black or White.

A move is considered "ideal" if it enables the player to guarantee a tie or a win. Obvious examples of "ideal" moves are those that lead to forced mates or those that stalemate the game.

2) The universe began to exist.
3) Therefore, the universe had a cause.

While it may not necessarily follow from this argument that the cause of the universe's creation was God, it can be logically shown from this argument that the c...
