True liberalism is not compatible with Mormonism
My argument here is that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints who embrace far left views must abandon principles or at least be out of harmony with many of their principles in the Church. Obviously, the idea that it is a good thing when a woman can choose to have an abortion is one clear example. But there are many others which I will give examples for in the rounds to follow. I am not challenging your faith in the Lord, just thought this would be an interesting debate....
Islam is a peaceful religion
I am not a Muslim, but I wish to defend the religion that is smeared in this soceity since 9-11. First of all, the stereo-types that surround the Muslims is ignorant to say the least. To classify an entire religion based on a crazy group of radicals is absurd. The fundmental teachings of Islam reflect the same moral principles as found in the Torah (the Jewish Holy Book) and the Holy Bible (Christiantys Holy Book). In the Koran (the Islamic Holy Book), the only permissible war is one of s...
Universal Health Care
America is the greatest nation in the World. As I am disappointed by the why our "leaders" have handle this country the past 8 years, and even beyond that, I can still say I love my country. That being said, why doesn't America provide free health care to all of it's citizens? My point here that will be debated is that Health Care is a human right, and America should not have profits leading our health system. We are the only westeren civilized nation that uses profits as the main motivat...
Which is worse for our society: Rap or Country Music?
I feel that rap music is worse for our society. First, for clarification purposes, i am not talking about hip hop. Secondly, the debate goes as follows. Round 1: Arguements, Round 2: Rebuttals. To anyone who excepts this debate I thank you for doing so and wish you good luck. To quote John Harris, a writer for "The Independant Newspaper of Morgan State University", "rappers of today put a major blemish on our society." The main problem with rap is that it circulates negative stere...
McCain will be a better presidant than Obama
I will allow my opponet to start this debate. This was origanilly his/hers so I will allow the opening for Pro. Good Luck....
Michael Moore lied in his movie "Bowling for Columbine"
I have heard that Moore lies in his movies. Farheniheit 9-11, Roger and Me, and Bowling for Columbine always seem to get the most flack. So this debate is dealing with the claims made in his movie "Bowling for Columbine", a film in which Michael Moore dives into the gun violence in America. So, did he lie? My opponet can tell me, then I will defend Michael Moore....
Gay Marriage should never be accepted legally in the U.S.
I am Con. I know this topic is one we see alot here on Debate.com. But I never debated this so I figure, why not! I welcome the opponet and thank him/her for accepting the debate....
Water Boarding is indeed torture.
I will assume that my opponet has not been water-boarded by the U.S. Military. I can say honestly that I have never been water-boarded. With that being said my opponet and I cannot use personal accounts on this issue. To determine if Water-Boarding is torture, I present two things to ponder. 1: The history of Water-boarding During World War II, Japanese troops, especially the Kempeitai, as well as the Gestapo, the German secret police, used waterboarding as a method of torture. During th...
True Christians should support the death penalty.
This debate will kick-off a series of Debates I will be hosting to convince people that the "Christian Right" (conservative Christians) are wrong. This is to expose the myth that Republican beliefs fit with Christian fundamental teachings. This Debate: The Death Penalty I am Con, so I will allow my opponent the opportunity to open the Debate. Thank you, and Good luck to my opponent....
Fox News is not only Bias, but Deceitful
deceitful: having a tendency or disposition to deceive: a: not honest, b: deceptive, misleading (http://www.merriam-webster.com/) I hope that whoever accepts this debate will accept the fact that Fox News is bias to the right-wing. This debate is not about MSNBC, CNN, ABC, ect. Fox is the network on trial here, and I wish to refrain from bringing in other networks to this discussion. This debate is only seeking an answer to the question "Is Fox News a deceitful source for 'news'?" To...
