Meta-Ethical Moral Relativism Is An Incoherent Position.
I thank Cerebral Narcissist for accepting this debate challenge - it's been a while since my last debate, so I've been eager for another one.

From here on out, I will refer to this position as meta-ethical relativism, and to be more precisely it's abbreviated form MMR. The following is a definition of MMR[1]: "The truth or falsity of moral judgments, or their justification, is not...
My opponent can neither disprove gravity nor an almighty God.
"an almighty God" means just that. It is not specifically the God of Abraham, but can also mean a god not worshipped. The concept of an almighty God is what's being debated.

The debate.org users monkeyyxxsun and PoeJoe should go on a date
I strongly affirm the resolution "The debate.org users monkeyyxxsun and PoeJoe should go on a date". ---- Contention 1: No Practical Problems ---- Let us get the basics out of the way.

My chances of finding a girlfriend are likely less that than of my peers.
My argument is simple, the chances of my finding a girlfriend, or a 'partner' (EG, mutual interest with a girl) is less than that of my peers.

The first few by a single person who made several a...

(1) The aircraft was an Airbus A319 with a single economy (coach) class cabin which was fitted with seats with a width of 17.0" (2) and the aisle seat I was allocated was located next to a grossly overweight gentleman, whose considerable girth was overflowing onto my seat, thus preventing me from putting the armrest down or fastening my seatbelt. I therefore challenged the man and here...
WriterDave Will Melt Down
Innomen predicted, when I returned to DDO, that "It's just a matter of time until the next melt down."
Such open-ended predictions are win-win for those who make them; if not proven, they are forgotten, and if proven, the predictor is hailed as a prophet.
