It's time to bring back public duels
If you have ever watched daytime TV, you will surely have encountered programmes such as the Jeremy Kyle Show (1) and the Jerry Springer Show (2). If you haven't seen one of these programmes, essentially what happens is that some scumbags who are involved in a tawdry domestic dispute are invited on to wash their dirty linen live on air. A typical example would be a woman tells the man from next door that he is the father of her child. Meanwhile the woman's boyfriend is being wound up into...

Michael Jackson faked his own death
That's right, reports of the death of Michael Jackson are premature - the reality is he is alive and well and living in a rented bedsit above a Lebanese restaurant on the Edgware Road, London. http://www.earth-photography.com/photos/Countries/England/England_London_EdgwareRoad4.jpg But wait, I hear you say. I saw pictures of his body being taken to the coroner's office on television. Did you actually see his face though? No, all any of us saw was some shots of something under a white sheet...
Phoenix Wright is a better lawyer than Miles Edgeworth
Assuming you are willing to accept this challenge, I thank you for taking the time to debate. In today's debate, I intend to prove beyond the notion of a doubt that the main protagonist of the Phoenix Wright series was not actually the best lawyer in the games. For those not familiar with the series, you're free to check it out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_Wright:_Ace_Attorney I'll make my opening argument brief by listing the advantages Edgeworth has over Wright. Exper...
vampires are getting so out of hand.
since when did vampires get so popular well ill tell you when it was when the world of the free first saw twilight so what made them so popular well it had to be the sparkle because real vampires don't sparkle. so for Halloween instead of seeing children dressed up in vangs and capes were going to see children walking around in clothes they went to school with and in body glitter....
Twilight is a bad series
Twilight is bad for many reasons. 1. It doesn't really have a plot. It's mostly melodramatic scenes and Bella kissing somebody. 2. None of the characters have a personality. For example, Edward always has that dull, smug look on his face. Bella is a slut, and that's about all the personality she has. 3. Now a large amount of Twilight fans are going to confuse themselves when the movie Daybreakers comes out because it's a movie about vampires and there's a man named Edward in it. 4. M...
The Disney Resorts are better than the Universal Studios Resort
The Disney Resort such as the amusement parks and the land property that the public can get to (such as the hotels and downtown Disney) are better than the Universal Resort because the Disney Resort have more than one parks in one particular city, like two parks in the Anaheim Area and several parks in the Orlando Area. The Universal parks have only one in the LA area and Universal has only two parks in the Orlando Area. Plus the Disney Parks has several hotels in their property for their 'g...
Resolved: Patriotism should be taught to children in school.
Greetings, and welcome. This round will be brief. I contend that patriotism should indeed be taught to children in school. Patriotism will be defined as the "love of one's country or nation." The reason that this should be taught to chidlren in school is that (a) teaching this definition to future generations of chidlren will be beneficial to the welfare of the United States, (b) this is a time of development in one's mind and thought. Teaching one to love their country is teaching them...

It is plausible that Santa Claus exists.
My position is pretty simple. I think that it is scientifically plausible that Santa Claus exists. This of course includes all Santa Claus attributes such as delivering presents to everyone in one night and ya da ya da ya. My disclaimer on this however is that Santa Claus in my interpretation only delivers to those who believe in him. Definition: plausible - In this case meaning possible. Thus I present the challenge, someone show me that some part of Santa Claus is simply made up......
