Illegals would make wonderful slaves.

"How can we even think about using illegal immigrants as slaves? Most of them are Christians already." They CLAIM to be christians, but Satan has his ways of deceiving. They are not TRUE CHRISTIANS. 89% of Mexicans claim to be Roman Catholic. Those catholic ring kissing, pope loving, beed counting, whore buggering, ring kissers! SKIRT -WEARING PRIESTS! I am a true christian, a man of God. And I'm Dog-on serious. This is not laughing matter. Catholic heathens should think open minded ly, when they walk into a little square closet in their church, and theres a little old man in a DRESS behind a little open window. Then they slip open that window and they whisper all their sexual secrets to a little old man in a dress. There's something wrong with that! If you can't see that theres something wrong with you! It's SICK! Catholics are heathens and ned to be enslaved. Glory to God! Praise the sweet name of Jesus! Did you know that Catholics are so darn stupid they believe that Mary was a virgin until the day she died? I guess they never read about what happened when Jesus visited his home town in Matthew 13:55-56 and all his old neighbors proclaimed, "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us?" You see! Mary had a whole litter of kids! Everyone in Nazareth knew it. But them Pope-lovin', candle-lighting, ring-kissin' Catholics deny it! Something that should clue the world in is the fact that Catholics insist on getting ALL their information about the Bible from old men who like to play with little boys' penises. Do you understand that? I think the only thing we can do is just say that Catholics must be confused offspring of Satan. I figure that's an accurate statement, seeing as how they think they're Christians and not a one of them has ever cracked open a Bible to find out what they believe in. They'd rather have an old pervert in a dress teach them about Jesus. They run off and lock themselves in a closet with a man in a skirt and confess everything. Most Catholics really don't have any idea what they believe in. They just go to their so-called churches every so often, light a few candles, count a few beads, talk to a priest and head home. Can you imagine all them Catholics gettin' to heaven and God asking them, "Okay, now tell Me why you believe in Me." They'll all drop their jaws to the floor and say, "Well, I never thought of 'why' I believe in you, I was just told it was what I was supposed to do." Won't they be surprised when Jesus lifts his hand back and smacks their heads right off their shoulders into the lake of fire. Glory to God! Praise the Sweet name of Jesus! God willing, we will enslave these illegal catholics, and then we will move on to my opponents plan of enslaving everyone else in Jesus's Holy name! Hallelujah!
Illegals would make wonderful slaves.

My opponent suggests that illegals would make wonderful slaves in our return to the "good ol' days" I personally believe that my opponent is lacking in making that conclusion. How can we even think about using illegal immigrants as slaves? Most of them are Christians already. I say that we should conquer non-christian countries and use THEIR people as our slaves. Hopefully, in their lifetime of servitude, we can do our Christian duties and show them the path to Christ (while having them mend our socks and fetch our dinner as a form of repentance for a lifetime of heathenism, of course) Just like how they did it hundreds of years ago!
Illegals would make wonderful slaves.

This nation was founded on Christianity, As a Christian nation, and always will be a Christian nation. Glory to God! It is important that America gets back to the good traditional values that made our country so great, such as slavery, (and witch burnings.) Slavery, as we know, is a very long-standing, joyful Christian tradition. Jesus Christ taught us how to clean and care for our slaves, in great detail. Praise his sweet name. God willing, we will have illegals as slaves in this country, cause we don't want them in here to pay for them, no sir. Glory to God! Hallelujah!
Illegals would make wonderful slaves.

That's exactly the point! My opponent makes a good point as to how UN-Christian these illegals are. In that case, why would you want these people touching or preparing your food? Watching your children? Touching your clothes and cleaning your house? No good, upstanding Christian would tolerate such a sacrilegious abomination. Therefore, I reiterate my argument: Illegals would NOT make wonderful slaves because it would be an eyesore to Our Lord to see his beloved followers associating so closely with heathens. Thank you.
Zoos Are Ethical

*Voters note that by fofeiting, Pro has not followed his requested structure of debate stated in round 1.Near my city, there is a zoo called "Tiger Kingdom." The majority of animals in display in this zoo are tigers. Its fees are very expensive and visitors are allowed to go into the cages and interact with the tigers. The more you pay, the older and larger the tigers you can interact with. -When they are older, they pull out the tigers' claws and drug and sedate them so that they can't harm humans. If they notice a tiger is aggressive despite the drugs, they will either keep it in captivity to breed or sell it to zoos in other countries (mainly China) for a large price. -They force the tigers to breed with one another so that they can produce baby tigers which visitors pay a lot to see and touch. When the cubs grow older, they are also drugged and sedated.This is unethical because:-They are harming the tigers by pulling out their claws and drugging them.-They force the tigers to reproduce in captivity so that they can have more tigers to profit from.
Cin is good looking

Rebuttals: 1. "There can be beauty in the abilities of a person, the charisma of a person, or in other inherent qualities/attributes of a person" --Yes, you are correct, but without the physical portion, it means nothing. Thousands and thousands of women even state that they just can't date a certain guy anymore, no matter how amazing his personality is! They have to have a physical attraction to them. The same for guys. I'm not saying this applies to everyone, because it doesn't, but a big population of people do apply. 2. "there are no objective "ideal" features of a girl." Society today has objected to the fact "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". Which, in fact, it should be. But there are so many stereotypes that make people look at themselves in a different light. I have heard numerous stories of girls going bulimic to fit the girl on the front page of a magazine. For some odd reason, the "thigh-gap" and "collar bones showing" are what's in today. In my opinion, I don't think that's attractive. But society does. The standards of what beauty is depends on society. People depend on other people to tell them what's in and what's not. That's just the way today is. 3. "girls who are below 5 foot, heavier than 100 lbs, and don't wear revealing clothing are unattractive?" That is not what I'm saying. Look at runway models for example; They are 5'10"-6'2" and weight like less than 110 pounds. I could never be a runway model because I'm overweight and too short. The designers make a one size outfit that is supposed to be a perfect fit to their models. Society has chosen that.

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder , then ugliness is also in the eye of the beholder. The definition of beauty, according to http://dictionary.reference.com..., is "a very attractive and well-formed girl or woman." Taking this into mind, beauty is the physical appearance of a person. And referring back to previous times, I have never been an attractive person. I usually get "oh, she has a great personality, but I wouldn't date her." Not to mention constantly being at the bottom of the "hot list" that the popular guys make. I, myself, am not saying that I am unpopular, for I would find myself to be a very popular person. The complaints of physical appearance, or the "ideal" features of a girl to be attractive this day and age would be of model appearance, like Selena Gomez. I am either too short (I'm 5 flat), not skinny enough (I am 111 lbs), I don't wear "revealing" clothes, and on... But I'm not going to wear tight jeans or shirts in order to impress the stupid h0rny guys. Because I am comfortable with how I look, dress and act. I do get that I have an amazing personality. I also get that I'm really nerdy. Which is true, because I am top of my class right now. But even saying that, doesn't necessarily mean that having a great personality is found to be attractive. In order to date someone, there has to be a physical attraction between them. Finding someone with a great personality is just a small part of the term "beauty".
Cin is good looking

Lol you asked for it. Resolution: The user named Cin has qualities of beauty. She is therefore beautiful. Definition of beautiful: possessing beauty; aesthetically pleasing - http://www.thefreedictionary.com... Story: Cin and I agree on a few things but one; her good looks. She thinks she can win this debate but I'm still going to do my best. Round 1 is for acceptance from Cin. *This debate was made out of consensual agreement.*
The term "Rape Culture" is Beneficial to society

I (not so obviously) meant when a guy and girl are already close and being sexual. Obviously consent is not implied when a random girl is standing next to you at the bus stop. It is implied when a guy and girl are being sexual. It is human nature to have sex, and doing sexual things leads to sex, so it makes sense to assume consent is implied.Unfortunately a large amount of feminists still consider that foreplay, and not consent to actual sexual intercourse, and if he were to have sex with her, he would have raped her.Nothing we're talking about is relevant to the original topic, by my argument still stands: rape culture is not beneficial to society.Thanks for the debate!
The term "Rape Culture" is Beneficial to society

"It is human nature to have sex with someone, so consent is assumed, and should be up to someone to say no if they don't want to continue their actions." Gonna have to call B.S. on that, I'm afraid. If I try to have sex with some random girl at the bus stop, then I will be arrested. The matter would not end at "no, I don't want to have sex with you" - I would most likely face charges of attempted rape. Likewise, drunk people are incapable of saying no, yet it's not okay to have sex with them. Consent is not the default; you must gain confirmation, verbal or non-verbal, that what you're doing is okay. I suspect most feminists are smart enough to understand that when a woman shoves a man's hands down her knickers while they're making out, that she's giving consent. This isn't relevant to the topic, I just thought I should point it out. If you want to end the debate, reply with "Pass".
The term "Rape Culture" is Beneficial to society

A myth; yes. Beneficial? No. Generating widespread negativity (all men are rapists/support rape, etc) is in no way beneficial to society, even if the occasional person thinks for five seconds about their beliefs on rape. But then I could say "let's slaughter all children" and someone could consider their views on what's right and wrong regarding murder... yeah that's not beneficial.I agree with you, except that when people bring up rape culture, they are implying anyone who asks normal questions in a rape crime, (where were you, had you been drinking, what were you wearing, etc) has sex while intoxicated, or does not get a 100% definitive YES, LET'S HAVE INTERCOURSE [1], is a rapist and/or advocates rape.I would like to address this [2] and how feminists use it in their "rape culture." What a majority of feminists say is that "consent is not an assumption." This means if you are fooling around in bed, taking each others' clothes off and end up having sex, the girl was raped. This means women are not responsible for their own actions. If somebody does not want to have sex, it should be up to them to get that point across. It is human nature to have sex with someone, so consent is assumed, and should be up to someone to say no if they don't want to continue their actions.Of course by me saying this, I advocate rape.This is not beneficial to society."An “Okay, I guess” is not a yes." [3] Apparently there is no grey area. The world is black and white, and if you don't have a definitive yes, you are a rapist. This article also goes on to say if you are under a lot of stress, strong emotions (usually negatively), or have consumed alcohol, you can not give proper consent, therefore, you were raped if you had sex.I kind of agree, if you wish to pass on the next rounds, go ahead, I'll do the same.Finding as many ways as possible to label men rapists and women victims is not beneficial to society.

The term "Rape Culture" is Beneficial to society

You should never tell rape jokes - you might upset people who have been rapists. Actually, a lot of people haven't really considered their views on misogyny. For most of my teenage years, I was really insecure because I'd heard that all men are rapists deep down. It wasn't hard to believe; I could imagine a guy committing a rape, substitute his face with mine, and BOOM, that made me a rapist. At 21, I actually met a hardcore feminist, and learned about "rape culture", "patriarchy", etc. After hearing the "all men are rapists" myth in context, it didn't take me long to realise that it was bullshiit. "Rape Culture" is not the source of myths like "all men are rapists", it is merely the culmination. Having all those myths in one place makes them easier to refute. Alcohol is a grey area when it comes to consent, because your ability to consent is affected by your inebriation. I think we can both agree that it's rape if a guy takes advantage of a girl who's so drunk that she's falling down, and that it's not rape if two drunk people simply lose their inhibitions and tumble into bed together. Most people can make that distinction. Most women can make that distinction. Most judges and juries can make that distinction. Changing the law won't do jack. 1. Yeah, I have to agree with you there. 2. Many people, out of a desire to fight rape culture, do actually promote rape awareness. I'm really running out of material here. Unless you've got a new angle to argue from, what say we skip the next few rounds and go to voting?
The term "Rape Culture" is Beneficial to society

I agree that what most of what "rape culture" teaches is extremist nonsense and can't be taken seriously. However, though it may have been blown out of proportion, it is true to say that people are reluctant to discuss rape and sometimes pretend it isn't a problem (can't say I blame them, it is a horrible topic). "Rape culture" forces people like you and me to address the issue of sexual assault. By debunking the bogus claims that feminists make, we educate ourselves on the actual facts. By defending ourselves from unfounded accusations of misogyny, we refine our beliefs about what exactly misogyny is and how we should treat women.To use an analogy, take the Evolution vs. Creation debate. We all know Creationists are idiots, but their constant heckling forces us to study Evolution in more detail, and to learn the difference between logical and illogical arguments. It's the same with Feminism; we're forced to study the issues raised, and to recognize whether the issue is real or is just one woman's insecurity being treated as Gospel.Obviously, this can backfire. If we react emotionally to Feminism, we risk going to the other extreme and joining the Men's Rights Movement. Or, if our rationality is clouded by our friendship with the Feminist in question, as often happens with impressionable young women, we risk being brainwashed.Basically, being accused of "rape culture" is like bullying; it's unpleasant, but going through it makes us a better person.The questions that need to be answered are:1. Does the backfire (misogyny or conversion) from "rape culture" outweigh the character most people build by listening to the Feminist rant? 2. Does discussing "rape culture" increase actual rape awareness?As I previously stated, whether "rape culture" is legit is irrelevant to the debate, as long as widespread belief in it has more pros than cons.Also as I previously stated, there are no reliable statistics relating to "rape culture", probably because it's not legit. A direct correlation with rape or rape awareness cannot be established; there is only the possibility of one.I feel bad because I'm grasping at straws here, and don't actually have any sources that can back up my argument. To compensate, here's a comic from Cyanide and Happiness:
The term "Rape Culture" is Beneficial to society

Oh crap, I thought I was Con. Oh well, here goes. The issue is not whether or not "Rape Culture" is a legit phenomenon, but whether widespread belief in it benefits society. If it can be proven that using the term "Rape Culture" increases rape awareness and/or decreases rape occurrence, then it is beneficial to society regardless of its side-effects (unless those side-effects kill people, which is unlikely). If it increases rape occurrence, then it is not beneficial to society regardless of its side-effects (rape awareness is not a perk if there is a correlated increase in actual rapes). As most sources that use the term "Rape Culture" are left-wing Feminist garbage and don't provide reliable statistics, I cannot directly prove that the term is beneficial. However, we know that the term originated in the 1970s ( . http://en.wikipedia.org... ), and can look at the crime statistics since then. From 1961 to 1992, the overall crime rate increased in the United States - including the rate of forcible rape, which climbed from 9.4 per 1,000 people per year to 42.8 per 1,000 people per year. Clearly, the idea of "Rape Culture" has no effect against an overall increase in crime. Since 1992, crime statistics have returned to their rate in the 1960s - i. e. they have decreased ( . http://en.wikipedia.org... ). What has increased since the 1990s is internet usage. Websites like Facebook, YouTube and Tumblr allow the rapid distribution of ideas, including the idea of "Rape Culture". Now, as can be seen in this FBI table here ( . http://www.fbi.gov... ), the decrease in rape is correlated with an overall decrease in crime. It is thus impossible to conclusively determine whether "Rape Culture" has helped to reduce rape occurrence. However, rape awareness is certainly beneficial to society, and it cannot be denied that "Rape Culture" combined with social networking sites has helped to increase awareness. As I previously stated, whether "Rape Culture" is a legit philosophy or not is immaterial to the debate. In order to win, my opponent must prove that the belief in "Rape Culture" is NOT beneficial to society. As there are no genuine statistics relating to "Rape Culture" (at least that I can find), they have a difficult task ahead of them.
Politicial Roleplay (Sarah Palin)

Bush was the one who buried us in a pile of debt - I'm the one trying to find a way out. Pollution hurts us over the long run, and isn't pleasant to breath in. Public health care is a good thing - most developed countries, including Canada, Europeans... EXCEPT US! Many people's lifespans are being shortened because they couldn't go to the doctor, financially. Then they have a cold or something and to the emergency room because it got so severe DUE TO NOT BEING TREATED SOONER. If it had been treated earlier the damage would have been far less, and it would have been cheaper in the end, for all the taxpayers. Sure the rich may not want more taxes, but what if you are dirt poor, have a minimum wage job, and barely are able to buy food? Or perhaps you are unemployed. Wouldn't you be wishing you had decent health care so you could keep healthy? Also, you may not be going to the north poll and shooting polar bears, but the global warming fossil fueled power plants cause DOES - it melts the ice they swim to, they must swim farther to get a resting place, and many begin to die. DO WE REALLY WANT THIS?
Politicial Roleplay (Sarah Palin)

Mr. Obama, being in a diverse situation dosnt mean that you have the right to bury our children in debt. Sorry about your "da" but your da leaving you isn't making you president again is it. I had it bad when I was a kid. Compared to the other people in my neighborhood I had 1/6 the amount of toys they did. The amount of gas emitted into the air isn't enough to do anything. Polar bears aren't dying unless I hunt them. Mothers are always right, I am the mother of america and I don't want to see my kids gobbed up by health care and abortion. If that president had a gun he couldve defended themselves by shooting that SOB. Mr. Obama, please stop digging.
Politicial Roleplay (Sarah Palin)

Being in a tough situtation: I mean financially. My parents couldn't afford much for me. I didn't have both my mom and da. By diverse I mean black and white. That's realitively unusual. That doesn't mean drug deals. 4 cars is more than enough, most families only have a "mere" 2. You simply don't need that many. All your gas wasting isn't good. Also, you love oil drilling. Don't you know what global warming is? That's a serious issue! Drilling for oil with no respect isn't good. We're killing tons of animals with global warming already! This is causing permenant damage that takes 1000s of years to fix, even if we stop RIGHT NOW. Are we trying to kill ourselves? Mothers don't always know what's best. That's partly how they get such a bad rap. Gun control is a good thing. One president was toward gun control, then someone shot him and he (luckily) survived. He was then against it. If he'd been against it first and put things in that direction the terrible incident could never have occured. I'm not saying no shooting animals at all, I'm just saying put more control on getting guns and regulations on them. What do you make of that, Sarah Palin?
Politicial Roleplay (Sarah Palin)

"Obama knows what being in a tough position can be like." I shoot wolves. how is that not a tough position. "He grew up in a diverse enviornment, and his family had little." Diverse meaning gangs and drug deals. My family (the palin family) only had 4 cars. "She is into shooting and no gun control" I love shootin wolves. Gun control is for wimps. You don't wannna shoot a gun fine! When some burgular comes in your house and eats your babies dont come crying to me. "doesn't have any idea how to work the government correctly" I was the governor of Alaska and a mom. Mothers always know what's right for their kids. "McCain himself actually wasn't too bad" True dat. Please read the rules. You were supposed to be obama. Not argue for him. Please speak in the next round as if you were him.
Politicial Roleplay (Sarah Palin)

OK so here it is. Obama knows what being in a tough position can be like. He grew up in a diverse enviornment, and his family had little. Sarah Palin is rich, white, and doesn't know what it is like for the middle class working americans. Palin has a limited view. She is into shooting and no gun control, and doesn't have any idea how to work the government correctly. She really made John McCain look bad, possibly worsening his chances of becoming president (McCain himself actually wasn't too bad). Few would vote for her. If she runs and wins president in 2012 then we are really in trouble. What has my opponent got to say for himself?
