abortion
I would like to thank my opponent for agreeing to debate me once again. Hopefully I'll win this debate. I would like to start off by saying I've been searching for someone just as fun too debate as you, and I couldn't. Hopefully this will be a good, fun debate and may the best man win. Without further adieu let the debate begin. Abortion: harmless joyful procedure or cold blooded murder. I will begin by using the constitution to support my reasoning that abortion is unjust murder. And I will...
Assuming that the Bible is infallible then the earth is probably around 10,000 years old.
Why the Earth is probably around 10,000 years old. Unfortunately our liberal secular media has refused to report any of the following findings or studies because they are not in keeping with the theory of evolution, which requires billions of years to be even remotely plausible. The following is some (but not all) of the data that supports a younger and a more biblically accurate earth. First the scientific evidence: Too much carbon 14 in deep geologic strata. With their short 5...

During or after this debate concludes, my opponent ought to read the "Liar Game" manga
I believe that my opponent ought to read all available chapters of the following manga during or after this debate concludes: http://www.onemanga.com/Liar_Game/ Like other debate of mine, this round shall serve to be the greeting round. My opponent can present his case upon accepting this debate or wait for me to present mine; such is inconsequential. In addition, I reserve the right to challenge any definition or interpretation of the topic should I feel it does not meet the intentions of th...
Sexuality is a Choice
My opponent claims that a person's sexuality, that is to say the trigger of sexual feelings is decided by deliberate choice. Decide to be gay, and you will find yourself feeling sexual desire for people of the same gender. I have argued consistently that is utterly false. The following arguments spring to mind, I, nor anyone else can remember a previous asexual period where we made a cold calculating deliberate choice to establish our sexuality. From what I can tell from personal experienc...

(http://dictionary.reference.com...) Moral Proposition : a statement of the form X is right/wrong. Example: slavery is w...

Logic Game
Random logic game Overview: Each player posts four arguments, on any (clean) topic he chooses, and on as many (clean) topics as he chooses; they can be syllogisms, paragraphs, sentences, or symbols; they can be written, in a video linked (with the intended argument pointed out in the post), in a picture or graph linked, or in a news article linked, as long as it does not require a subscription to read the article. At least one of the arguments each round needs to be subtly fallacious. This...
