British Teachers Often Don't Afford Students The Credit Of Intelligence

2013-05-21T21:57:33-08:00

(Voting Period)

I am a 13 year-old with a rather uncommon disorder named Aspergers Syndrome, this means that I am able to challenge the modern psyche of children are inferior to adults, which some people take for granted and have never thought to challenge. Essentially, even when it isn't a smart thing to do, my brain makes me say things to teachers which I regret later. I first truly realised the extent of teachers disrespect for their pupils on the 21st of may at 2 o'clock. I had recived a detention based on the school's new "double removal system" which has evidently been set up to punish repeat offenders who have given up on school and think there is nothing left in education. I had recieved the detention for not having my homework diary signed. I immediatelly thought that this was unfair, on the whole, I behave impeccably towards my betters and I didn't see why I s

Should the U.S. Government be able to sell weapons to other countries?

2013-05-21T13:14:58-08:00

(Voting Period) I believe that we need to allow the gov. to sell weapons because if we dont sell them then other countries will just buy from someone else. Plus it helps our economy to gain that kind of money.

Wrestling being eliminated from the 2020 Olympic Games

2013-05-21T17:30:59-08:00

(Voting Period) First of all wrestling is one of the oldest Olympic sports and that alone should be a good enough reason to keep it. When wrestling was chosen to be one of the sports that may not be on the 2020 Olympic program the wrestling community came together to make sure our dreams stayed alive. Just recently we had the Rumble on the Rails which is a tri-meet between the United State, Iran, and Russia. It took place in Grand Central Station and had very many spectators. It was also broadcasted on television. We brought three countries together in hopes of keeping something we love dearly in the Olympics.

EPL is better than Primera Liga

2013-05-20T11:41:38-08:00

(Voting Period) First of all, Constrating to Only REAL MADRID & BARCELONA dominate Primera Liga, in English Premier League there are no absolute dominacteur or dominee. It means, there is potential and sustainable development in class of league Second, EPL's marketing ability is really better than Primera Liga, Wherever We can pick up a remote controller, we can see any match of EPL! but in case of Primera Liga, it doesn't . and EPL's camera skill for shooting the match is absolutely dominant Primera Liga's Don't you think about this?

is Dann a tool or a moron?

(Voting Period) Dann can learn, so he is a tool!

Does Science Refute God?

2013-05-19T11:34:52-08:00

(Voting Period) The advancements of modern science have rendered the concept of God superfluous. All phenomena we experience can in principle be explained with reference solely to materialistic or naturalistic causes. This makes it unnecessary to postulate a Creator if we conform to Occam's Razor. Another reason is that a Creator has no explanatory power. Because the Creator is the very kind of thing that requires an explanation.

Does Marsellus Wallace look like a b*tch?

2013-05-19T22:31:05-08:00

(Voting Period) I'd like to put forth the notion that there is a possibility that "Marsellus Wallace," a powerful mob boss in Los Angeles, looks like a b*tch. Other definitions will be put up more for connotation as the argument calls for. Sources can come from anywhere, and no suggestions will be made. I will be arguing that Marsellus Wallace does, indeed, look like a b*tch while my opponent will be arguing that, no, he doesn't. First round is acceptance. Second round will be arguments. Third round will be rebuttal, but arguments may be made. Final round will only be rebuttal. "What" is not to be said in any round. Lack of adherence to these rules will cause a n*gger hiding in a bowl of rice to pop a cap in the a*s of the violator.

Homeschooling is better than Public or Private School

2013-05-20T21:56:58-08:00

(Voting Period)

Now, I must say something up front, I will not be on this site from Monday till' Friday. So as odd as it sounds, a round will be forfeited by both sides to let me get back from being a State Page where I will not have regular internet access.

So, here are the basic rules:

Stay Civil

Use Spell-Check (please)

Use sources/logic/experience to back up your claims and/or contentions

Wikipedia is not, I repeat, not a source.

Experience should be a secondary, if not last, resort as support for a claim/contention. It should be used more as a way to give examples and illustrations.

Round 1 is acceptance

A round will be forfeited at no expense to either side (Must be the same round for both parties and AFTER round 1 and 2).

'Nuff said.

Resolved: that there are moral absolutes.

2013-05-19T16:34:21-08:00

(Voting Period)

I set out to prove that there are moral absolutes. I"ll use "moral" and "ethical" synonymously, choosing one over the other as style dictates. By "absolute," I mean something is that true in all possible worlds, necessarily true, and true in all situations. For example, the judgment "lying is wrong" is necessarily true and there is no circumstance when lying is right."

My arguments are Kantian, so my opponent should be quite familiar with Kant's moral theory. I put no restrictions on the opponent, but be forewarned that I have a doctorate in philosophy, and I have taught for 25 years. I'm only trying to say that I have a good deal of practice and experience in this area.

Appeals to emotion and majority opinion are strongly discouraged, unless my opponent proves these have some value in proving the truth of his conclusions.
