Affirmative assertion #1- In 1974, court-ordered busing was the only strategy that could have desegregated Boston's public schools. Neighborhood's where segregated so colored kids would go to there neighborhood school that were only attended by blacks.

Affirmative assertion #2-Students and society benefit when more kids are able...

Is the pen mightier than the sword?

SaintMichael741
ConservativePolitico

Is the pen mightier than the sword? I think that the written word is more powerful than any show of physical force. History has shown that more damage can be done with a pen than any weapon. I intend to prove my point in this debate.

Rules:
First Round Acceptance
No new arguments in the last round
No profanity

To be clear, pro (me) will be arguing that the pen, or written word, is more powerful than any type of physical force, while my opponent (con) wil...

Resolved: There is no need for testing on animals when there are 30 million Bieber fans available

Resolved: There is no need for testing products, medicines, etc on animals when there are 30 million perfectly good Justin Bieber fans available to be experimented on instead. My argument for animal testing no longer being needed is because there are 30 million Justin Biber fans we can test all of our stuff on instead. Justin Bieber fans are perfect test subjects since: 1) They have no soul, no sense of reason, no ability to comprehend reality, and therefore arent human 2) Animals that a...

Deism is more Reasonable than any Revealed Religion

Valladarex
handywandy

This will be a debate on whether or not Deism is more reasonable than the revealed religion of Con's choice.
A revealed religion is a religion founded primarily on the revelations of God to humankind. These include Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and more.

The burden of proof will be on Con, as Con will be the one attempting to prove that their religion is true, and I will be negating their claims.

I will allow Co...
