This following statement is, at some point in time, false: The Earth sky is yellow.

(Post Voting Period) Resolution affirmed. Prove that the Earth sky is always yellow, and you win. Sky 1. The expanse of air over any given point on the earth; the upper atmosphere as seen from the earth's surface. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/sky Yellow 1. The hue of that portion of the visible spectrum lying between orange and green, evoked in the human observer by radiant energy with wavelengths of approximately 570 to 590 nanometers; any of a group of colors of a hue resembling that of ripe lemons and varying in lightness and saturation; one of the subtractive primaries; one of the psychological primary hues. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/yellow Arguments 1.When I go outside,the sky looks like many colors to me, even yellow at some point, but it always changes colors. As of now, it looks blue to me. I am not, nor have I ever been, colorblind, so this must be true. 2. The argument that this is merely an illusion is one that is baseless. There is no proof th

Is the world without nuclear weapons possible ?

2010-09-22T09:26:11-08:00

(Post Voting Period) It is fresh in our memory that U.S. president Barack Obama made a speech in Prague in April 2009 to try to make a world without nuclear weapons. In this speech he made clear ``the U.S. must seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons.``(1) He also said that ``as a nuclear power, as the only nuclear power to have used a nuclear weapon, the United States has a moral responsibility to act``(2)toward building a world without nuclear weapons. After the end of World War Second the world has promoted to eliminate the production and possessing of nuclear weapons among the member states of the United Nations. In particular, Nuclear Non proliferation Treaty has played an important role in creating a world without nuclear weapons. Moreover, after the end of Cold War many people in the world have participated in the movement to build a world without nuclear weapons on a global scale. However, unfortunately their objectives and appeals are not realized t

Is it right for God to punish anyone for their thoughts/beliefs/values etc ?

2010-12-04T11:22:02-08:00
(Post Voting Period) Notes: If you have a problem with definitions,rules, etc please post in comments section first Rule 1: No posting of links like you tube I wish to have a debate on the common objection of how its wrong for God to punish people for "thought crimes" eg thoughts, beliefs, values, conceptualizations etc Definition of God - Its existence is uncaused, morally good, all powerful, all knowing, personal, the prime/first mover As the Pro, I will be arguing that it is right for God to punish for thought crimes As the Con, My opponent will be arguing that is is wrong for God to punish for thought crimes Note* It is assumed for this debate that God exists My opening argument People would not object for instance if God punished someone for murder, or baby rape or listening to Justin Bieber music, but yet at the same time object that God could or would punish for anyone of their thoughts, beliefs, values, conceptualizations etc. My argument is as fo

Marijuana should not be legalized

2010-09-07T18:03:11-08:00
(Voting Period) The legalization of any drug may cause major problems in our society. When a doctor proscribes a drug it is for medical uses, but is sometimes used to get high. The patients that want to use marijuana to get high may crack the system and not need to go see a doctor. The drugs may find there way into our schools and cause a more major drug problems in our schools. If we do not want an increase of drug issues in our society Marijuana should not be legalized.

Great Britain- The Anti-Christ's last stand

2010-06-11T21:20:55-08:00
(Post Voting Period) Great Britain has always influenced the world with its culture, military and economic status. Ever seen a man wear a shirt, tie and a custom made pants- It's British. When you wear a formal suit- it is British. When you talk in English- the language is from England. There is no Empire in the world that has influenced the world as has the Great Britain. Heck! The bible you read is KJV or NKJV- well it is from England. Even during the era of Rome this nation stood toe to toe with the most powerful empire despite its small size. Then it was in the dark ages that this nation slowly started to rise from the ashes like a phoenix. This nation has always run parallel with super powers like US and Europe. If you compare the pound then it is surprising to see that sometimes Euro struggles to keep up with the versatile pound. I think I have given enough evidence that Great Britain is strong enough to lead the world if US or China got omitted from the phase of this wor

Rusiian Military is superpower

2010-07-16T12:43:56-08:00
(Voting Period) My opinion is that Russian military strenght is very overrated.My argument is that a country that barely is able to pay salaries for their service members can not be considered a military superpower. Russian annual military budget from all the world military spending has been only 3.9% compared to 46.5% of USA. If country wants to be a military superpower it has to have military sealift and airlift capabilities (real, not on the paper) - russian military doesn`t have any of these if they wanted to quickly transport enough military cargo and troops to war zone to sustain winning warfighting. USA has been involved in many wars in global arena and it has proved it`s logistical capabilities countless times. Russian military is aging - it`s a Cold War relict rather than 21st century warfare capable fighting force. Despite annual arms trade shows were Russia keeps introducing new ``high tec`` weapons platforms actually 95% of those are for export and mili

A chainsaw is the worst weapon in a zombie apocalypse

2010-12-06T14:58:42-08:00
(Voting Period) The chainsaw has been used widely in zombie movies, video games, etc. However, as proved in The Zombie Survival Guide, the chainsaw is one of the worst weapons to use. 1. It is heavyweight. It is exaggerated how a normal person can possibly lift this weapon above their head and use it with ease to slice through a zombie. The people that normally use it are extremely muscular and the people that don't have difficulties welding it. 2. It is cumbersome. Why carry around a chainsaw when you can carry that ax and (loaded)pistol you saw a while back? The truth about its weight is that it is difficult to carry to and fro. It will either have to be carried by a strong member or in a vehicle that can support its weight. 3. It uses fuel. The truth is, that fuel you just poured into your chainsaw perhaps had caused you your life. You will also have to carry that fuel tank will you along with the chainsaw while you are running from a hoard of zombies. 4. Only one
