It can be proven that Jesus rose from the dead

proglib
philochristos

Thank you to Philochristos for accepting this debate challenge. From what I've seen of your debates and comments on forums, I couldn't ask for a better "opponent." BoP on Pro, as I don't propose to prove that Jesus Christ of Nazareth DID NOT rise from the dead*, just to say that it is a matter of faith as opposed to science, including the science of history. Gish Galloping will be very difficult as the number of characters is only 4000. Pro will argue first and will leave the last argum...

Is there a god?

StraightWhiteMale
zezima

First of all, and most important of all, this debate will remain calm, and this will be an open discussion about if there is indeed a God watching us in the clouds. My opponent has to proof there is indeed a god, and I have to prove that there isn't, there is no factual evidence of a God, neither is there actually evidence that there isn't, so you can not give any points to usage of factual evidence, but you can only base yourself on assumptions and opinions. So, points go to credibility. Gam...

Agnosticism isn't an absurd belief system

TUF
Smithereens

My Belief in Agnosticism: The belief in being open to the possibility of an entity commonly classified as God, however, not pursuing one illogically. Based on my opponent having several different aspects of belief here, I will let him start. I am starting this debate due to my opponents mis-informed approach at Agnosticism in this thread: http://www.debate.org/forums/religion/topic/31778/ I am not starting this debate to call him out, or to try and ridicule him. I hope that by him...

The Biblical God and the God of the Qu'ran are not the same!

Harbinger
Fruitytree

I would like to thank Fruitytree for deciding to debate this topic with me. We will be debating whether or not the God of the Bible is the same God of the Qu'ran. Anyone who accepts this without permission will automatically forfeit the debate.

Since this is the first round, it should only be used...

Religion is a force for Good!

TheHitchslap
TULIP

Standard COC applies for DDO (Code of Conduct)

Opponent states her case in round 1 for why she thinks religion is a force of good in the world, and says goodbye only in the fourth round. I conclude in the fourth round (because I stated the rules here)

Let's get ready to rumble!

God is immoral and evil.

David.McIntosh
Rational_Thinker9119

Fo the sake of this argument, we will be talking specifically about the Christian God, spoken about in the Bible.

I will be arguing that God is evil and immoral, and Con will be arguing that God is good and moraly just.

I thank Con in advance for taking on this debate, and hope we both enjoy it.


All powerful / All knowing

I put forward that the Christian God is said to be...
