Terrorism in general will be best defeated by military means (war).
Since I am Con I will allow my oppenent to provide his/her case for why terrorism will be best defeated by war, and then rebutt. They must prove that war is the best solution, and that other options are not sufficient in order to win this debate. No semantics please.

Parents shouldn't indoctrinate their children to believe that one particular religion is superior.
First I would like to define two of the words in my title for this debate so we're on the same page, so to speak. Indoctrinate, as defined by Merriam-Webster, is to instruct especially in fundamentals or rudiments. Superior is defined as something, or someone of higher rank, quality, or importance.
