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...
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....
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....
Rush Limbaugh should be fired
"Get the bone out of your nose..." -- Rush Limbaugh to a black caller on his radio show. ...And Don Imus was fired?......
yes is better than no
No is better. This is 5 rounds so I'll let mPro make all his/her/it's statements first. Please don't accept this debate unless you plan to see it the whole way through....
The 9/11 terror attacks were committed by leaders of the United States government
I have never seen a different 'theory' of the events hold water, and would be glad to try to see somebody go for the contrary....
Liberals of sound reason realize welfare and social programs are unjust, but promote them anyway.
Many liberals are not as illogical as they make themselves out to be. I submit the portion of liberals who are of sound reason know they are promoting unjust policies aimed at taxing citizens beyond the minimum needed to provide for their general safety and the defense of their basic rights and liberties. I assert that liberals of higher intelligence see liberal socialistic policies for what they are-- legislated morality which forces the rightful owners of certain property to give it away t...
