I would be more harmed than you if we broke up.

Oryus

Resolution: I would be more harmed than you if we broke up Both parties share burden of proof. We can only use quoted song lyrics to make our case (sentence fragments are ok but complete sentences are better) and must cite the song and artist for each lyric. We can't use a lyric from a song already used. Opening arguments: If things should ever turn out wrong and all the love we have is gone, it won't be easy on that day. [1] Do you remember when we met? Thats the day I knew you were my p...

God exists

Dagolas

I know we get a similar debate every day, but I'd like to try my hand at it.
This debate is simple: Does God exist?
The Con (myself) will have to prove that God does not exist, and Pro will have to prove that a God does indeed exist.
My opponent may immediately start with arguments.

Affirmative Action programs in colleges and universities should be banned.

voltairelines

Affirmative Action - for the purposes of this debate, only race will be discussed, and not other factors, like religion or gender, will be argued. There would be a shared burden of proof. I, Pro, will argue the resolution. Con will argue that Affirmative Action programs should not be banned, and continue to be practiced in colleges and universities nationwide....

The Problem of Evil: The existence of unnecessary suffering makes a perfect God impossible.

Magicr

Resolution and Burden of Proof


As Pro, I will be affirming he resolution: The existence of unnecessary suffering makes a perfect God impossible.

I bear the initial BoP in this debate to affirm the resolution. It is not necessary for Con to make a positive case affirming the opposite of the resolution, his BoP is to demonstrate that I have not met mine.

Methamphetamine should be legalized

Caboose

Hello there. Thank you for responding. I would like to start by saying that I expect a rich and factual debate from you, and I will to my best to provide the same. Methamphetamine in the United States would provide three main benefits for lower and middle class Americans that are unparalleled by any other product I have come across: A.) Methamphetamine is relatively easy to make, and would provide an easy startup business for lower class Americans. Small business fuels the American econ...
