It is impossible for a Human Being NOT to communicate.
Communication is defined as: 1. the act or process of communicating; fact of being communicated 2. the imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs 3. something imparted, interchanged, or transmitted 4. a document or message imparting news, views, information, etc. 5. passage, or an opportunity or means of passage, between places Communication MUST involve two or more people. They do not have to be voiced either. Being silent, having a blank stare, and sitting in a single spot, not visibly moving, is communicating. It shows boredom to another person. It shows disinterest to another person. It is impossible to NOT communicate to another person. My opponent would have to have the statement "NOT communicating is possible".
First off I would like to point out that my opponent has used an absolute, all I must do to win is prove that one person can, for even the shortest period of time, refrain from communicating. I will do this through a scenario. 1- A lone person in a room where they cannot be observed to any extent cannot communicate. |

I was really looking forward to this debate, hopefully my opponent just missed this round, as of now my opponent has failed to negate my scenario. |

Well, since my opponent again failed to negate my scenario I don't think I need to expand on it and am fairly certain I've won this debate. |

Go CON!
If "Not visibly moving" were communication, all rocks would talk.
Check and Mate for PRO. I don't mean to be rude or anything, but the only way PRO will lose against that argument will be if he knows next to nothing about the subject. Then again, I've never seen you debate, so perhaps you have something planned, no?
