Trump should honestly be impeached
The nation is now witnessing a massive corruption of the presidency, far worse than Watergate. Indeed, Nixon White House Counsel John Dean has told reporters: "I don"t think Richard Nixon even comes close to the level of corruption we already know about Trump."[1] Given the opportunity of ten full weeks between the election and the inauguration to divest his business interests, Mr. Trump chose instead to announce, just nine days before inauguration, a wholly inadequate plan to step away from ope...
Existence of Creator- Yes or No, BoP on Pro
I've looked through your profile/voting log and it seems you are firmly atheist. Therefore I challenge you to a friendly debate: I must prove that a creator exists, and you must try to prove that a creator does not exist. BoP is only on me. Round 1: will be for acceptance Round 2: Arguments, no rebuttals Round 3: Rebuttals, no new arguments. Please accept, this will be a quick debate and fun too....
Should capital punishment be abolished?
This is actually the first debate that I have brought forth to this website, so please bear with me as I get used to it. I would also ask that you argue the topic, don't merely attack your opponent. Lastly, I ask that you bring new relevant information into the debate to make it more enjoyable for both sides. My official argument will begin here: The death penalty is an inhumane and outdated form of punishment that blatantly violates human rights, doesn't deter crime, puts innocent civilians...
Secular Morality (Pro) vs. Reigious Morality (Con)
This debate has 2 resolutions, 1 for each side, whoever proves their resolution wins. Pro must prove that Religious Morality is fallacious, and that there is an objective way to judge human behavior. Con must prove that Secular Morality is fallacious, and that there is no objective way to measure human behavior aside from a religious text.
Should a christian use his mind?
In my experience,i have met countless christians who will cry "dont think about it,dont worry about silly issues like that,just believe and have faith. I think that position is absolute ignorant and borderline evil. Many professing christians say "i cant explain or prove God,but that dosnt matter,i know him in my heart". God tells us in his word "love God with all your heart,all your strength and all your mind". In my opinion if a christian is challenged with a hard question he"ll say get fa...
The Problem Of Evil Is Sound
God is defined as the omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent cause of all contingent being. P1: If gratuitous suffering probably exists, then God probably does not exist P2: Gratuitous suffering probably exists C: Therefore, God probably does not exist --- I will be arguing that the premises are most plausibly true; the first round is for acceptance....
Necrophilia should be legal
I strongly believe that necrophilia ought to be legal. I will admit, I am a necrophiliac, so I am somewhat biased regarding this subject. I've heard the arguments against the legalization of necrophilia, and I've heard the proposed solutions to the problems. I'm going to expound upon what I believe to be the ideal system in which to practice necrophilia. To begin with, allow people the option to leave their body to necrophilia. Once someone has decided to leave their body to necrophilia, they...
prison not working
I think our prison system (England) does not work.There is no attempt to install discipline and good morals into people. They get three decent meals a day,tv in the cell and even a kettle,this is not punishment with a goal,it is stroking and pandering an already faltering generation. We cry where are the fathers,our youths are crying out for discipline.we spare the rod at our nations destruction. Our prisons are a far cry from the correction facilities it should be may God help us....
New Super Smash Bros. Character+Stage Contest!!
This debate is a Smash Game: My opponent and I will each choose a video game character or a video game duo (example: Ice Climbers) from any game, any console, so long as he/she/it is a video game character to be a new character in the Super Smash Bros. series of games. Also, to make it even more fun, you can choose a stage to go along with your character, but it has to be a location from the game/series from which they originate. Categories that will be judged are: 1. Moveset/Controllability...
