Jzyehoshua

My opponent must show that Theism is more reasonable than Atheism, and I must show that Atheism is more reasonable than Theism (By "Atheism" I mean "Strong Atheism"). Thus, the burden of proof will be shared.

The NRA is closer to the solution than the Liberals are on Capitol Hill are. The 2nd Amendment says a well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. A person wi...
