Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War.
I'm tired of people praising Ronald Reagan "because he ended the Cold War". The Soviet Union split up. They voted for the split of the Union because their government was inefficient. The correct statement would be "The Cold War ended during Reagan's presidential term". Reagan did nothing contributing to the fall of the Soviet Union....
Lamest Joke Competition
The purpose of this debate is to find the lamest joke. I urge those of you reading to stop now because I assure you this won't be funny. there are three simple rules. The first is that all of the jokes must in fact be jokes. They can't be real stories or anything like that. The second rule is that it can be any type of joke. Yo momma, story jokes, etc. You get to pick. And the last is that if you need to exceed the limit of characters, then go ahead. leave them in the comment box, and nobody wil...
The UN should give Iran an atomic weapons-backed guarantee against a pre-emptive strike by Israel.
In exchange for complying with her obligations as a party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), Tehran should receive the assurance that any unprovoked attack on Iran by Israel will be met with an appropriate and immediate military response from UN members, including the use of nuclear weapons if necessary, with no further reference to, or agreement of, the UN Security Council required. I suspect that the knowledge that Israel (a non-signatory to the NPT) already po...
The United States is in fact, the greatest nation in the world.
The United States of America, rich in natural beauty, history of incredible overcomings, and freedoms given to individual citizens of this great nation are just the tip of the scale as to what makes up the bulk of truths proving the United States is the greatest nation. I hope to touch on several facts, facts the prove my point that the United States is the greatest nation in the world. -Industry -Technology -Military -Agriculture -Entertainment -Culture -Sports -Education These...
What is the purpose of Atheism?
This is not a debate, nessecarily. Since the topic is a question, I'll say that, I am Con, because I disagree with Atheism as a whole, and I'll let an atheist or someone with a good idea of how atheism works take the Pro position. Now, for my first round, I'll let you answer a question or two that I haven't been able to answer on my own. What is the purpose of Atheism? What can be gained from being a Atheist? If my opponent is interested, I am a Christian. I can't make an argument u...
Libertarians have it right on education-school ouchers people, school vouchers.
American high school SAT scores fell by an average of 50 points between 1970 and 1995. During the same time, the federal education budget nearly doubled from $19 billion to $35 billion. In other words, private schools are rewarded when they succeed. Government schools are rewarded even when they fail. Libertarians don't think we're getting our money's worth from the government-run school system. We believe that a dollar-for-dollar tax credit should go to any individual who pays for a child's edu...
There is evidence for creationism.
I contend that there is no evidence for creationism. The idea that the world was created by some deity or intelligent designer has no solid evidence as support. There's no good reason to believe this is the case....

recent republican presidents, regan bush and bush, are to blame for sky rocket deficit spending debt
recent republican presidents, regan bush and bush, are to blame for sky rocket deficit spending debt notice the graph http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/faq.html a very big spike occurred at the beginning and during regan/bushI, and then started slowing down and decreasing starting and during clinton. then, starting and during bush II, it REALLY started taking off. what's to blame is probably their motto of "tax cuts while not reducing spending". sure, democrats are probably less pron...
