The "deteriorating process" can explain all inferred instances of the "compounding process."

Assumptions I am assuming that Pro holds the opinion that species do in fact exist; and are not just a man-made product of a convenient organizational system to study organisms. That is to say, we agree that a given species is unique with definable traits that can be used to differentiate an organism from other organisms with some similar observable and measurable characteristics. Acceptance of definitions I accept the definitions Pro has established in round 1 Additional necessary definitions Species—a basic unit for biological classification of organisms with similar DNA sequences and morphology that live within the same ecological niche and can reproduce (1). Genetic information--the heritable biological information coded in the nucleotide sequences of DNA or RNA (2) Gene-- a specific sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that is located usually on a chromosome and that is the functional unit of inheritance controlling the transmission and expression of one or more traits by specifying the structure of a particular polypeptide and especially a protein or controlling the function of other genetic material (3). Constructive criticism Pro should have a reference section that is numerically organized to demonstrate where supported information has been obtained.

Homophobia needs a new Title

while it is true that their are some people that actually ARE afraid of homosexuals, it does not change the fact that the name needs to be changed, because it is making those who have actual phobias look bad, and yes, ANYBODY could edit Wikipedia, but i'm pretty sure that they wouldn't let THE MAIN FACT about phobias be changed, also, it is a huge website, so i doubt anyone would change up phobias of all things.
Prostitution Should Be Legal

My apologies to Con, but as I was away from my computer for a week due to stuff IRL, I will fully concede this debate to them. I apologize to a greater extent to the site and its members for my misconduct. I will endeavour to only join and create debates that I intend to finish in the future. If I do find myself in a position where I will not be able to post arguments in a timely manner, I will postpone the creation of that debate to a more appropriate time. I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused.

Radical Islamic terror exists.

Actually, We have to call it by its name. If next day, God forbid, You get cancer and you go to a hospital and they say that it's the flu and advise you to go home and take an aspirin, Would that help you? A wrong diagnosis will hurt you far more than calling it by its right name. Also, The presence of the alt-right in USA is limited, Leave alone Christian terrorism. Christianity does not contain radical teachings of killing "kaafirs" and infidels. Give me an example where someone said, "Praise Jesus" and then blew up a bunch of people. The real threat is radical Islamic terror.
Atheism is the default position

My opponent has also cheated and deserves no win in this debate. I accepted and stated what my opinion is, as have you stated your's in the first round. If anything other then an "I accept" was a violation of the rules then we don't have much to debate seeing as I have no right to state my opinion. Your attempt to sneak in a new definition during the first round, knowing full well it had nothing to do with the topic of the debate, is just a full cheat. This type of behavior should also not be rewarded with a win if we use your own logic.
Atheism is the default position

My opponent is attempting to cheat by not accepting the rule I set that Theism is the lack of disbelief in a god. First round is for acceptance only, and I have accepted and used your logic. Instead of you accepting your own logic, you attempt to be the one who accepts your own definition of Atheism but don't accept the definition I have set for Theism. Total cheat. Theism is the lack of a disbelief in a god. The moment we are born, we have no disbeliefs at all. All babies are born Theists. That's why it's the default position. The only way to be an Atheist is to learn what God is and choose not to believe in it. Nobody is born an Atheist. If you begin to have faith in a God, you automatically (without having to choose to) go back to the default position of being a Theist. It's that simple.

Instead of just accepting, he attempts to set new definitions. Total cheat. Atheism is the lack of a belief in a god. The moment we are born, we have no beliefs at all. All babies are born Atheists. That's why it's the default position. The only way to be a Theist is to learn what a God is and choose to believe in it. That means you must BECOME a Theist from the default position of being an Atheist. Nobody is born a Theist. If you lose your faith in a God, you automatically (without having to choose to) go back to the default positionof being an Atheist. It's that simple.
every student should have a musical instrument

Thank you, Con, for instigating this debate.I will define some terms I will use for this debate.Musical Instrument - A musical instrument is an instrument created or adapted to make musical sounds. In principle, any object that produces sound can be a musical instrument—it is through purpose that the object becomes a musical instrument.[1]Have- possess, own, or hold.[2]For the word ‘should,’ let’s agree to avoid semantics.Contention: The human voice is a musical instrument.The human voice seems to fit the definition of a musical instrument. My own music instructors (and you can find other instructors anywhere online) often call the human voice an instrument. So why shouldn’t students be allowed to have their own voice?Argument 1: Singing for FunWhile I don’t personally enjoy singing, I realize a lot of people do. Singing in a choir can give oneself a sense of community or family; it is a fun group project.[3] It’s also an enjoyable hobby. Some people just enjoy singing melodies they like.[4] Since the alternative (which would be ‘not having a voice’) seems undesirable, I think all students should have a voice. Who wants to be mute? Why would we wish for someone to be mute? Argument 2: Exposure to Good MusicTo enjoy good music, one has to have experiences with good music. Some kinesthetic learners could really take off by getting an instrument themselves. Rebuttals:Con claims, “…they [students] would have to practice and not get most of there other work done for school.”But this is clearly false. You don’t need to carry every instrument you possess into class. You could just practice 30 minutes a day and still be in good shape. In fact, for beginnings, it’s advisable not to practice over 30 minutes a day. So there is still time to practice and get work done.Con further claims, “i own a trumpet and it takes away from hw so i just practices on weekends and then i dont understand fully how the songs go.”This argument is an example of the anecdotal fallacy. Therefore I do not really need to respond to it, but let me just say that there are a few assumptions Con is making. Con assumes• Practicing somehow ‘takes away’ from homework. • One cannot fully understand how songs go if they just practice on weekends.But there are obvious solutions. You could play easier pieces, you could take easier classes, or you could take classes that do not require homework. So I do not think that there are strong arguments against the resolution.Sources:[1] https://en.wikipedia.org...[2] https://www.google.com...[3] http://www.singingforfun.co.uk...[4]
every student should have a musical instrument

i say that it is up to them if they want to go down that path, its up to them if they want to be musical. also if all kids have an instrument then what would happen if everyone was carrying an instrument they would have to practice and not get most of there other work done for school. why take away other school subjects just to have an instrument ( takes away homework to practice) i own a trumpet and it takes away from hw so i just practices on weekends and then i dont understand fully how the songs go.
School uniform should be discontinued

Interesting, so you now forfeited! Please may you make some other points as for what to say because the last two rounds have just been me posting. School uniform also identifies people, like on a school trip, people could just say "They are wearing this uniform," rather than people having to remember exactly what the person is wearing. Also, having school uniform is a good fundraiser for the school as well. As well as getting the parents to pay for the uniform, they can raise money by having non school uniform days!
School uniform should be discontinued

I only forfeited it because I took too long to think up my carefully crafted answer. I did not choose to forfeit it. In a way, you are sort of agreeing with me by saying that if you change the fabric of the uniform, it would be fine. I know there are comments that people will still be bullied, and, it's true, they will, but not because of what they are wearing (ie if it clashes, if it is not the latest trend) I think that the main page thing is that it makes people look and feel like a group, and it encourages teamwork.
Fatal Bible Flaws

(taken from The Secular Web)DT 6:5, MT 22:37, MK 12:30, LK 10:27 Love God. DT 6:13, PS 33:8, 34:9, 111:10, 115:13, 128:1, 147:11, PR 8:13, 16:6, 19:23, 22:4, IS 8:13, LK 12:5, 1PE 2:17 Fear God. 1JN 4:18 There is no fear in love. PR 30:5 Every word of God proves true. 1KI 22:23, 2CH 18:22, JE 4:10, EZ 14:9 God deceives some of the prophets. JE 8:8 The scribes (copyists, editors, teachers) falsify the word. 2TH 2:11-12 God deceives the wicked (to be able to condemn them). (Note: Not every word of God can prove true if God deceives anyone at all; teaching from the Bible cannot be trusted if the scribes falsify the word. In other words, the first reference is mutually exclusive with the other three. Thus, the Bible cannot be the perfect work of a perfect, all-powerful and loving God since one or more of the above references is obviously untrue. Note also: Some versions use the word "persuade" rather than "deceives." The context makes clear, however, that deception is involved.) EZ 20:25 God says that he intentionally gave out bad laws. (This means that God-given laws or commandments are sometimes suspect.) LK 1:26-38 The angel who appears to Mary to foretell the birth of Jesus says that Jesus will be given the throne of David, that he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and that his kingdom will never end. (None of this took place nor can it now be fulfilled.) MT 16:28, MK 9:1, LK 9:27 Jesus says that some of his listeners will not taste death before he comes again in his kingdom. This was said almost 2000 years ago. (Note: This passage and many others indicate that Jesus was to come again in a relatively short period of time and not just "quickly" as present day Biblicists assert. All of his listeners are now dead, yet Jesus has not come again in his kingdom. All of the alleged words of Jesus put forth in the Bible are therefore suspect.) MK 16:17-18 A believer can handle snakes or drink poison and not experience any harm. (Note: Many unfortunate believers have died as a result of handling snakes and/or drinking poison; this kind of assertion negates the Bible as a useful guidebook for life. It should also be noted that the oldest manuscripts of Mark end at MK 16:8; as the footnotes to The New Oxford Annotated Bible put it, verses 9-20 cannot have been part of the original text of Mark.)Indeed since these are true Fatal Bible Flaws, the bible is unreadable. So that brings this debate to the RULES: Prove that the bible IS READABLE, UNDERSTANDABLE by thus countering the fatal flaws as correctly listed above. There will be more fatal flaws/ mistakes in the bible as it is supposed to be perfect, and so is its god, Sorry they ain't, in which you as a debater would be required to counter as well. dsjpk5 will not be allowed to participate in the voting process.
Government in the hands of God rather than humans

First off, your position is confusing. Are you Pro for God ruled Government or Con Human Government? I guess I'll digress from the Pro and Con claiming thing. Anyway, we have what we have. It's wishful thinking right now for God to be encharge of the Government and stuff, but that won't come until Revelation times, which may take hundreds of years more for it to happen for all we know. People were certainly waiting for it during the Dark Ages that's for sure, but it came and went, and centuries latter we made progress and here we are now. The American Government is not perfect that's fore sure but right now it's the only beacon of hope for the World. We can't be lethargic and wait for God to do all the work, we have to do what we can with what Government we have, it's certainly better than a Dictator ruled foreign governments out in the world. But we also can't have religion running the Government as well. That kind of religion ruled Government lead to the Spanish Inquisition, the Salem Witch trials, and the Crusades at least to the worst aspects of it. Men can't really rule on behalf of God anyway.
Government in the hands of God rather than humans

According to the Bible, humans were never supposed to rule themselves but after the rebellion which was instigated by the angel known as 'Satan' humans are now lumbered with the responsiblity of basically 'playing the role of God'. Many people would argue that self rule is a disaster and that human society would be better if God took over as ruler. What would be the benefits? Well, health wouldn't be an issue anymore because God's son, Jesus proved that he has power to health the sick and even raise the dead so that would be one good reason to want God as our new ruler. The current environmental problems would be solved because again Jesus showed that he has power to calm the weather so that is another reason to put our faith in him. He also fed thousands of people and so hunger would no longer be an issue anymore. The negatives are if Government is left in the hands of humans the above stated issues and more will grow worse. But what do you think? Please share your thoughts. Thanks.
The "Ash in a Coma Theory"

I believe that the "Ash in a Coma" theory points to an entirely possible, deep sub-plot to the Pokemon television series. I challenge somebody to disprove the theory itself. If you are unfamiliar with the theory, you can read it at this link: http://www.scribd.com... Rules for this debate are as follows: It is to be civil. It is to be friendly. Acceptable sources include the theory itself, as well as any and all television episodes and video games of the pokemon franchise.
Advertisements Do More Harm Than Good

My opponent case: 1. Commercials are annoying in General... Yes we all know how commercials annoy us but they are a needed annoyance, with commercials we wouldn't know that stride has a new flavor that lasts 2 times longer or that Oxy Clean is good for stains. The whole point of ads in the first place is to spread the word about your product so people who might need your product will know you have the product for sell. Its all so a sells tactic some ads are designed with physcological tricks to get you to buy products like axe one spray and boom 20 women tackle you. That would make any man wanna buy axe and im sure at least once every man has bought some. Commercials are shown a lot in repetition, why? because when watching tv they can't determine if someone new turned to that same channel and didn't see the ad before. The reason the head on commercial repeats 3 times is its suppose to, the phrase was suppose to be the catchy slogan of the product. Well if it makes a customer wonder they might even guy it out of curiosity alone your thinking too much into it the general public doesn't think into commercials that much. Actually they wanna spend all their 1 minute to 30 seconds talking about how good their product is rather than wasting time on talking about the negative thats why they talk fast at the end. They will tell you what you would have to pay when you call them about the product. barely readable fonts? sounds like bank lone tricks not going to wall mart and buying a bag of lays or bounty paper towels. 2.The product usually don't work.... So you really couldn't find proof of these products not working im sorry but we can trust what you remember find a source saying these products don't work. Nor your experiences. Plus your little malfunction might have been how you were using or how you places the tube into the despenser sometimes its a user error. 3.Ads tend to benefit only large companies rather than the general public... Thats actually a very incorrect statement to tell people to stop buying stuff, in an economy such as the U.S we need money circulation, the reason the economy is so bad right now is there isnt enough money circulating. The whole idea is people spend money to a company then company employee's spend on other things expand and goes back out into the economy, however everyone is keeping their money not contributing to the circulation making it hard to do this. The stimulas package was suppose to help circulation, didn't work very well either. Buying products helps our companies survive allowing jobs to stay which paying employee's puts the money back into the economy and helps the economy without companies less jobs actually hurting the general public.
