Second try at this debate because I set the wrong round numbers. My apologies.

Resolution:
A woman has the right to choose whether to abort a child.


I will be arguing for women's choice. Con will be arguing against women's choice (pro life.)

Beer, in moderation, is healthier for you than milk.

I thank whoever accepts this debate. *Note: I would like to say that I am not encouraging excessive use of alcohol. It is important to recognize that beer can also have a significant impact on your health if abused. I will clarify that "moderation" is one or two drinks a day, and half that for women (because of their ability to break down alcohol), not consumed one directly after the other (http://www.allaboutbeer.com/features/233beer&health.html). Resolution: For the average, healthy p...

Pesci-Vegetarianism is beneficial

blondesrule502
Protagoras

Before I start this argument, I just want to say that I am in favor of vegetarianism, I am one myself, but I do not want to force people to be vegetarian, I just want them to see that there are benefits, and like any diet, it does have risks, but it also has solutions. A pesci vegetarian is a vegetarian that will eat dairy and fish. In many ways this is a beneficial move. Like with any diet, if done the wrong way, it can have health problems. But if done overall well, it reduces the risk for...

Humans taste great

I have been eating other people since I was about 12 years old. It has been a tradition in my family for many years. The muscle on a 150 pounder is nice and tender when you cook it. Just thinking of it makes my mouth water. I'm not sure if there can even be an opposition to this but if someone does accept this challenge I thank them....

Homosexual lifestyle

greggiewong
socialpinko

Why society should discourage the homosexual lifestyle and agenda 1. Physical Incompatibility A gay couple can never produce a child **by design**, they lack the ability to reproduce with each other. From a religious perspective, if God didn't design the parts to fit, then He must not have meant for those parts to fit. Who are we to argue with God's design (some may say then why did God make them that way, wait till you read my argument below on this before you respond to this). Fro...

End Prohibition, Drugs Become Public Health Issue

mycull
Cerebral_Narcissist

This debate will argue the current standards in the United States and Canada. I believe drug abuse should be a public health issue, which means users and abusers do not face criminal penalties, but are offered treatment for their addiction in an open ended, government funded center. This would remove much of the racial stereotype seen with arrests for possession of illegal drugs. This would save billions of dollars in police processing fees, court fees, incarceration fees, and potential...

Abortion should be legalized.

iamapelican
clsmooth

Abortion should be legal, definitely. Ask a pro-lifer what their position represents - what is being a pro-lifer? They'll usually give you a definition of something along the lines of someone who believes that a fetus is a life, and the sanctity of life should not be compromised by legalizing a form of murder. Ask them further if they would take measures against death occurring. Would they, if they had the power, pass a legislation that would save more lives than not? If adhering to their positi...

Homeopathic remedies are ineffective

alex1094
RationalMadman

My contention is that homeopathically treated medicines or remedies are ineffective at curing the ailment it is advertised for.

The first round is acceptance.

I wish my con, whoever he/she may be, the best of luck.
