Affirmative assertion: To create a desegregated school system; a judge should be able to tell parents where their children must attend sc...

Diversity is not our strength.

Skynet
Masterdebatr91

I will be arguing that cultural diversity is a weakness in a nation.
I am referring to culture, not race even though many cultures are divided along racial lines.
I am talking about multiple cultures with major differences existing beside/amongst eachother in one nation.

Some main points I plan on covering:

sakskidz

Good evening everyone! I would like to start a debate based off of a poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson called In Memoriam. The question is: is it better to have loved than to never have loved at all?

Rules:
-First round acceptance
-No citations needed
-No new arguments in the last round

I will be pro. My job will be to prove that it is better to have loved.
Whoever accepts this must prove that it is better to never have loved at all....
