I will not break a rule.
0. By accepting this debate, my opponent agrees to all the rulse already posted. This debate poses off of another debate that was quite comical to me. 1. Rules created hold power over all rules posted later, and no later rule can contradict an earlier rule. 2. Both players should still have the ability to post rules in their turn. 3. A violation of a rule that is not null and void will result in the rule-breaker losing this debate. 4. A player may only do something besides make rule...
RESOLVED: Free Will Does Not Exist
In order to truly evaluate this resolution, some topicalities must be cleared. Definitions: Free Will: The ability to consciously choose one's own actions free from any external forces Observations: 1. A choice is not necessarily a free one. If a choice is available at a specific instance of time, the fact there is a choice does not necessarily make the choice a free and unsullied one. 2. For something to exist, it must exist within the bounds of reality. By this, I mean that for...
You slice the cake, I'll pick the first piece
The above is not the actual resolution I am debating, it is a metaphor that sets the terms of this challenge.. My opponent shall write the resolution, any resolution they please. I then choose which position on it I will argue (So I may or may not be the actual "Pro" in this debate). So, I advise you to only accept this debate if A. You are a traditional debate wonk who is willing to argue any position, or B. you are quite sure the resolution is one on which I'll actually disagree with you on (m...
It's time to crackdown on canoodling cretins that conspicuously cavort in crowded carriages.
We've all been there, haven't we? Standing in a jam-packed underground train with hardly enough room to breath, never mind move, when the aesthetically-challenged couple next to you decide to demonstrate that they aren't too hideously ugly to get a sexual partner by going at each other hammer and tongs - right in your face. Yes, there they are, these two freaks of nature, his hand up her blouse, her hand down his trousers, slobbering all over each other like a bitch on heat being taken by a...
Should prayer be allowed in school?
I'm going to leave this debate open for anyone to jump in on. So, my side of this debate is that prayer is something that means a lot to many people. However, there are so many different types of religions these days that you can't talk about one religion without someone else getting offended. There are a lot of different religions and the fact that we live in a country that says we don't discriminate based on race, religion, or beliefs. We have to be fair to everyone and we can't possibly d...
This debate will not result in a tie
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am for the motion that this debate will not end in a tie. As a matter of fact, this debate will not end at all, assuming the the voting period is indefinite. Let us take an example. Say at a certain time there is a tie. However, the opposition is arguing that there will be a tie, so he is right. If he is right, then there is no tie. ARGUE THAT!!! thank you...
The debate.com users monkeyyxxsun and PoeJoe should go on a date
I strongly affirm the resolution "The debate.com users monkeyyxxsun and PoeJoe should go on a date". ---- Contention 1: No Practical Problems ---- Let us get the basics out of the way. (1) I am a male, and you are a female. We are both heterosexual. Therefore, there exists no problems as far as sexual preference goes. (2) According to Google Maps, we live (even in 'traffic') within fifteen minutes of each other. There are no problems as far as distance goes. (Although, really: Love h...
My opponent cannot forfeit every round of this debate and still win.
Although, I have seen some people forfeit every round of a debate and still manage to succeed in winning these cases are rare and far between. Usually the debate topic is really bad, the person is despised, or the arguments in favor are actually weak enough that no reply is nearly a tie. None of those apply. - I'm not hated. - The topic isn't so offensive as to illicit anti-votes. - My arguments are not tissue thin and worthless. There are two likely outcomes: -- My opponent will reply...
Lovely Life
Living is very good. I like life and so do many people. I understand that there are people not satisfied with life, but I am a supporter of life. Also this was my first debate so I just wanted to try it....
The Color Blue
The color blue (meaning all shades of blue) is a very popular color. On this debate we will argue why this color is so popular. In this debate I will be affirming that the color blue is a popular color for males because of factors that are not peer pressure and society's approval of this color for males. To make this a little clearer so the person who accepts this debate will understand. I will argue that the color blue is popular because say the sky is blue and exists pleasantly in nat...
