It is better to have Brains than Beauty

leprechaun
Emmo

" Knowledge is Power" - Sir Francis Bacon 1)The brain is the container of knowledge. The basic difference between a beast and a man, is the latter's possession of an advanced brain which gives him the ability to think and allows him to differentiate between good and evil. 2)Physical beauty is an added quality. Life is enlightened for brains and not for beauty. A beautiful person, especially the female gender in this case, can have a dull brain and might just end up harming herself. For ex...

Is Bill Russell top 50 player in NBA history?

BiggTime
deever

No. I think bill Russell is extremely overrated. Yes he did win 11 championships and 5 mvps. Bill Russell is the greatest "winner of all time" but he is not anywhere near the talent level needed to be in the top 50 greatest "players" of all time. Bill Russell was on a team with 7 hall of famers. In the middle of there hisotric 8 championship run they had bob cousy, john havilcek, sam jones, tom heinsohn, Clyde Lovellette, Frank Ramsay and russell. on the same team. many critized Miami for puttin...

Transsexuals are stupid.

I was walking down the road the other day with my son, little Jimmy. Thinking about it, it wasn't the best idea. We got run over.

I was walking along the street the next day with my poor little innocent son, little Timmy. But Timmy would not maintain his perfect personality for long, as we came across this bloke. Well, I say bloke. (s)He was wearing all this make-up and a feminine wig. Immediately when my poor little innocent...

lowering the driving age

Fuzzybuddy2
imabench

I am doing a debate on lowering the driving age to 15 instead of 16 this would help us out with our economy too, there would be more cars being bought by younger ages. Because of more cars being bought there would be money being pumped into our economy and with that lowering our taxes a lot. Our biggest problem in this country is money and with m,ore money we open a lot of new doors and opportunities for others. We could open up new jobs for other people, we could lower the food prices in grocer...

Should Native American Mascots be Banned from sports teams?

niltiac
hcps-landrumce

Well, many believe that the Native American mascots are racist &/or offending. I, for one, am not native american but I duly believe it would be an honor to have a professional sports team representing your race/nationality. I understand the other side's opinion when many say that some logos or mascot names such as the logo for the Cleveland Indians logo or the term "redskin". However, just these small adjustments can be made without having to revoke the whole idea of having a Native American cu...

Deep Space Nine was the best star Trek show.

BennyW
calculatedr1sk

I will be arguing that overall, Deep Space Nine (from now on abbreviated as DS9) was the best Star Trek. My opponent may argue that any of the others were better but cannot rely solely on one movie (for example using Wrath of Khan to prove the original series was the best). The first round is for acceptance. Good luck and may the best nerd win....

Israel and Palestine issue: Palestines future in the world map

Ismail
Nordenkalt444

Although the two-state solution is increasingly losing support among Israelis and Palestinians, it still remains the basic approach to resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The struggle over the historical British Mandate of Palestine/Eretz Yisrael, now divided between Israel, Jordan, and the territories in between, can possibly be resolved by confederative arrangements. It can be politically transformed into a trilateral confederation"a system that combines self-rule with shared rule. It...
