Does violent games or media impose a threat to the children and their behaviors?
Okay, this is my first debate, so I'll be pretty new to its rules, but be understanding please ! So, does violent games or media impose a threat to the children (or yet all its players) in a mean of them having negative influences from them? In my opinion, yes. These little things that anyone comes in contact with, can and probably will influence the person with or without their conscious awareness of being affected. This may not be the only factor that drives some people to real danger...

Shakespeare's works should be abridged and enhanced to make them more enjoyable
Shakespeare may have written some quite good plays, but few would disagree that most of them are far too long and boring.
That’s why they should be edited and spiced up a bit at the same time. Here is an example of what I have in mind:
Romeo &...

For Higher Learning, online courses are a more beneficial option than universities
I thank con for agreeing to this debate! I'm in the process of deciding whether or not to take online courses to finish my degree. Hopefully this debate will help myself and others who need to make this important decision.
As Pro, I will show that taking online courses can be a more beneficial option than enrolling in a university. Con will show that universities are more beneficial than online courses.

Best Rock Songs from 1990 - 2005
Thanks to Lickdafoot for agreeing to this challenge. Here we both post music from rock bands of the 1990s and early 2000s (till 2005).
This song from Nirvana is called "Smells like Teen Spirit". Before it was released, alternative rock was largely confined to underground clubs but this one helped Nirvana break into the mainstream and is considered revolutionary.

Best Meaningful Rap Songs
I've seen a couple debates on rap songs so I thought this would be fun.
This is for rap songs that have a bit of deeper meaning than the typical ho's, money, drugs. Best songs win!
I'll kick it off with the classic "Get By" by Talib Kweli
heres a snipet of the lyrics:
We sell, crack to our own out the back of our homes
We smell the musk at the dusk in the crack of the dawn
We go through "Episodes II," like "Attack of the Clones"

Physical Books are superior to E-books
Physical Books are superior to E-books.
In this debate, I wish to prove that books are superior to e-books. There are a number of reasons for this. I can touch, feel, and smell a book; which are all part of the unique experience. I can make notes in a book. I can loan a book to a friend. I can read them where there is no internet. Physical books have had a larger impact on our world than e-books. Physical books offer a wider variety. I will expand on these issues and more in the...
