Is morality Objective?
I have challenged con to the debate on the topic of morality and if it is objective or subjective. I will take the stance that morality is objective and a universal standard does exist. I do believe that morality is looked at subjectively from all standards and as this increases it opens a larger window of terrible acts throughout society. I will use the dictionary definition of morality as the foundation of our debate. For the purpose of a thorough debate I will state that I do believe in a tra...
Jesus the Christ is Probaby the Result of Creative Writing.
The proposition on offer is that Jesus the Christ is probably the result of creative writing. By way of clarification, the proposition is NOT that Jesus the Nazarene did not exist, but rather that the writers of the New Testament exaggerated the life of Jesus the Nazarene, added components of mythology, and used pieces of the Old Testament to piece together a picture of Jesus that was in line with their personal preferences.

While all of this is accepted belief it is not necessarily correct. Marriage is a social institution that brings many privileges, not least of which is the financial aspect. The governments of most countries offer tax breaks to married couples, as...
The Bible Says Plainly that Homosexuality is a Sin
On reading my profile, one would observe that I have debated this topic several times in the past. I enjoy debating this topic mainly because I feel very strongly that homosexuality is a plague to society, that it is one of the cancers that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and that it can do nothing good for this country save aid in its destruction. It pains me enough to see society accepting this minority as perfectly normal, but what most baffles me is that and increasingly large number of peo...
