first round is acceptance and you have the honors of topic choice...
Quotes! (reopened)
Hello! I had fun with our last debate, so I decided to make another one. Don't feel like you have to accept, though. Totally up to you. If tennis47 does not join, this debate is free to anyone else. Good luck! "Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood." - William Shakespeare "It has always seemed strange to me... the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openn...
Girls should be able to do less exercise than boys in gym classes.
Hello fellow debaters! I am quite new to Debate.org and this is my first debate. I am also quite new to debating and I see this site as a chance to improve my skill and have fun at the same time. Without further ado: I believe that girls and boys should be required in their Physical Education classes to do the same amount of exercise. There have been famous athletes in both genders. According to nextgenjournal.com the number of female athletes outnumbered males on the 2012 Olympic U.S....
RyuuKyuzo should be allowed in the DDO Debating League
http://debate.org/forums/debate.org/topic/26032/2/ "Hmm? You won't let me in the club because my opponents thus far don't meet your standards? That's a particularly weak reason for exclusion. So weak, in fact that I'm going to challenge you to debate me about it. The resolution will be along the lines of "RyuuKyuzo should be allowed to join the DDO League" -- something like that. If I win, I'm in. If I lose, you're reason for exclusion is validated and you can be the guy who gets to say...
Love Conqers All
It is a hoax, people romanticize about life too much and too often. It is true that some conflicts have been solved by love, but there are conflicts that have been concieved by it. Divorces are a good example I think, two people love each other just to hate each other later in life and rip apart. I have experienced fights that have taken place over love. It, as a whole, gets conqered constantly, by death, resentment, and sometimes by itself....
I can post the funniest videos.
If someone can post funnier videos than me, he wins. The video must ORIGINAL (not, for instance, a slightly edited copy of my video to make it funnier). There will be three rounds.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtXC9ZU51qI&feature=related...
Capybara betters than tapir.
Capybaras are superior for many reasons. The first I will cover is that the capybara is literally a giant guinea pig. Genetically, it's half rabbit and half guinea pig, and these are two of the most kick-butt animals on the planet (not Animal Planet, that network is the embodiment of Syphilis in television). Anyway, it looks awesome, and that's enough to make it better than a tapir....
Solve the riddle 2
I'll post a riddle in this round. Con gets one guess. I reveal the answer in round two. If Con gets it, he gets all points. If he doesn't, I get all points. Riddle: There are two villages, village A and village B. Village A contains only liars, they ALWAYS lie. Village B contains only people who tell the truth. There is a large forest between the two villages and you are lost in it, but then you see a person who could be from EITHER village A or B.You get to ask him only one question. You...
It is reasonable to believe that Santa Claus exists.
Merry Christmas, everyone, and thank you to whomever accepts this! This is not a semantics debate; in the spirit of Christmas, I will be defending the proposition that Santa Claus, "a benevolent figure of legend, associated with Saint Nicholas, supposed to bring gifts to children on Christmas Eve"[1] actually exists. The first round will be used for setting out and agreeing to the terms of the debate. Arguments will begin in round 2. References: 1. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/S...
A number not always represent the same thing, therefore 1 not always equal 1.
As requested by my opponent, I should give this another try. "Rules: First round: is acceptance Second round: I will present my argument, and CON will present his, which should contradict my, meaning he should demonstrate that 1 always hold the same value, and will always equal 1. 1 should always represent 1. Third round: Both, CON and I, will exam each others presentation and point any flaws in reason, and reason only, if there is any. Fourth round: Both can attempt to negate the flaws...
