A ban on the veil at work is not appropriate.

KingDebater
newbiehere

Imagine this: You're a girl and you're a dead ugly cow and you want people to stop pointing at you and laughing. How do you stop this? The answer is simple: the veil. Wear that thing and you're an insult-proof machine, and to make people think that you're sexy as, all you have to say is that you're wearing it for religious reasons.

So that's why I think banning the veil is really unfair. It makes poor old ugly cows have to put up with chavvy skin-exposing tan-obsessing sexy women...

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II should become a graffiti artist.

KingDebater
Walrus101

Drinking cups of tea and wearing smart and colourful hats is all well and good, but what has her majesty done to appeal to the younger (and more chavvy) generations? Unfortunately, the answer is nothing. I'll be arguing that her majesty should consider becomig a graffiti artist.

i) She'd be good at staying anonymous
She'd be like a ninja banksy. Nobody suspects the Queen of anything.

Legalising the Drugs Trade: Reducing Crime or Increasing Addiction?

dina.smagul
Smas1k_3531

In 2002 the Parliamentary Home Affairs Select Committee produced a report on UK drug policy. Its final recommendation called on the Government to initiate a discussion at the UN "of alternative ways " including the possibility of legalisation and regulation " to tackle the global drugs dilemma. Why would they have come to this apparently radical conclusion? First, regulating drugs is not radical, it is the norm for most globalised trades and widespread human behaviours (especially those that in...

Convince Me

Rational_Thinker9119
Corridon

If my opponent can convince me that the common theistic arguments for an infinite succession of events, and actual infinte being impossible are flawed and do not establish that infinity is impossible; then they win the debate. I will have to provide reasons why I am not convinced or reasons why I am, but it will be based on the honor system on my behalf. If one checks my debate record, they will see I engage in a lot of silly debates so I do not care about my record that much (in other word...

Writers debate: Fiction

TUF
YYW

The purpose of this debate will be to intellectually get around the challenges posed by your opponent with each plot twist. At the same time, both writers will focus their skills into making their prose interesting, legible, and well written. "Is this a debate?" some of you may ask. I personally believe a writers debate requires a great amount of skill as it shows a debaters confidence in their speech, and they have to overcome obstacles through the use of creativity, imagination, an...

Personal Argumentation Is a Personal Attack

Daktoria
Jzyehoshua

When arguments are carried out by people, those people do not just have ideas that exist in stasis. Instead, those arguments are manifested through a faculty of reason.

However, let us consider a situation where a logical position is held through a faculty of reason. By default, if this position is contested, the contestor will check the faculty's defense. If this defense breaks down, the logical position will appear illogical even though it's not.

Bestiality Should be Legalized

newbiehere
SlaterJ23

Before I begin, I would like to point out that I myself am not interested in having sex with animals, nor have I ever entertained the thought of having sex with animals. However, I fail to see any ethical or legal reason why having sex with animals should be illegal for those who are interested. My arguments pertain only to the U.S., as it would be rather silly to state these points for countries that already allow bestiality.

Students and teachers should not "friend" on facebook

madina.abdir
THElittleRISK

Nowadays, you can find almost anybody on Facebook. People are becoming Facebook friends with old classmates, with relatives and the neighbor with whom they live in one street. Especially teens seem to have a tendency to add almost everyone to their friends list that asks. So, if teens be friend on social network with teachers, it can give some negative sides to student. I want to share with first reason why they shouldn't "friend on social networks". Every humanity have rights to have personal p...

Dogs are mans best friends

Ligarc7
PenelopeGrammer

Dogs.They are loyal, fun, playful and perfect for anyone. Dogs have earned this title of mans best friend simply by being a best friend. Many people say dogs are too loud. There are lots of species that don't bark at all. Some may also say that cats are mans best friend, but more people are allergic to cats than dogs, they sense your feelings so they can make you feel better and cats think they are just the kings. Dogs really are mans best friends and anyone who disagrees should adopt a dog too....
