Three Philosophical Topics - 1B
I will present three philosophical debate topics and allow my opponent to have the opportunity to choose one of them to debate. The procedure is simple: in this round I list the 3 topics and my position on them, then in my opponent's first round he chooses the topic he wants to debate. From rounds 2-4 we have ourselves a classic three round debate! So here are the topics: ===================================================== PRO - Qualia is not an irreducible, non-physical entity. PRO -...

Gay Marraiage should not be allowed
Resolved: Gay Marraiage should not be allowed. I would like to explain the following terms. Gay: When 2 men or women have sex and/or "do" each other in the bed. Marraige: When 2 people of the opposite sex love each other and want to spend there rest of there lives with each other. Now that I have finished explaining my terms I will now explain why gay marriage should not be allowed. Jesus, God, and the Bible don't want 2 people of the same sex to marry each other. It is wrong to g...

Pick your own debate - 1F
If you have participated or read any of these types of debates before, then this one should be no different. However, for those who haven't: ROUND 1: This obviously includes this opening introduction and rules. For my opponent, he/she will post 3 topics (clarify them if you could) he/she wishes to debate, and then post his/her position on each of the topics. Please try to add a mix of subjects. Have some deal with religion, others with politics, others with art, others with social issues, etc...
Moral Relativism is an erroneous ethical theory.
I thank my opponent for accepting this open debate. I find this to be an interesting topic (ethics in general is interesting; I refused to be bored with it) and I hope a worthy opponent can accept this as I'd desire a hearty exchange. I noticed that there are some moral relativists on this website, notably Kleptin. I'd like to challenge them on this issue, since I find moral relativism to be unequivocally an incredibly flawed conception. The reason why I implemented 4 rounds is because o...

Evolution is a scientific fact.
First we must get a few things straight: Evolution is referred to in its most common and general sense which refers to macro evolution: the theory that all life originated from a single celled organism. Scientific Fact: The scientific method has been used to prove conclusively each aspect of the theory individually. Finally, the Con asserts that evolution as defined above is not by any measure a scientific fact. The fact is that only a few individual aspects of the theory have been sci...
