Voldemort had the right idea

Remember Con, the last round is for rebuttal only. No new arguments. I suggest you label your rebuttals just so there is no confusion among the voters. Also, I enjoy your game idea. It would probably work out really well, just not if you give the magical side of the game the exact same properties as the Harry Potter wizarding world."We live in an age where anyone can wipe out an iphone and record something" While this is certainly true, their is something else we must consider. Magic, of any kind renders such a device useless (http://harrypotter.wikia.com...). Therefore, if somebody whipped out their phone to record magic, it wld be rendered inoperable."I doubt Harry is the only one to misuse spells at home as well, and the Dursleys [and any other muggle guardian of wizarding children] would know of magic and warn the government". Ah, but you see, as soon as a child with magical capabilities is born, there is a Magical Quill that writes down their name, according to the education section of this article in the Hary Potter wiki (http://harrypotter.wikia.com...). Therefore, in a time of war, wizards would know about the child long before Muggles would, and would use spells such as the Disillusionment charm (to hide themselves visibly), the Muffiliato spell (to hide themselves audibly), and possibly the Obliviate spell (to wipe memory) in order to kidnap the child and raise him as a wizard. Muggles would have no such abilities, even with cutting edge technology. This would lead to a crippling advantage to the wizards in terms of intelligence. Here's why. As you probably already know, Muggles can be born from Wizarding families, just as Wizards can be born from Muggle families. These are called Squibs. Wizards could then indoctrinate the child to think that he is one of them, and use him for intelligence operations. He/She would be the perfect plant."By driving the wizard world into full scale war, even if they instill the human race with fear and paranoia, an army of a thousand at most has no chance against the 6 billion humans." First of all, this fact is wrong. If you look in the Behind The Scenes section of the Harry Potter wiki ((http://harrypotter.wikia.com...), their are 12,000 to 15,000 wizards in Great Britian alone.While this is still small compared to the muggle population, it is not as disasterous as the Planet of the Apes problem, whereas the Apes start with only 20 apes that cannot breed with humans. Wizards can breed with Muggles if necessary to sustain the population, as a kind of last resort. Also, not all of those 6 billion people are fighters. Most countries will not allow women to fight. With wizards, a woman is just as good if not better than a man. All wizards can be trained to use a wand and fight by the age of 17, if not earlier. Muggles rely highly on infrastructure to build enough weapons for all of those soldiers. Wizards have no such weakness. All a team of wizards would have to do is use the Incendio spell to light things on fire and the Reductor Curse to render vehicles, building supports, small aircraft, guns, automatic motion sensing guns, and a host of other things a literal pile of ashes (http://harrypotter.wikia.com...). This will prove to be a damaging blow to infrastructure. The best part is, the Muggles can't attack the wizarding infrastructure, because wizards have none. They do not rely on infrastructure, because they do not have a huge population to support."Sure, you will cause long term damage to human society, but that will only make them more violent." So? Without their precious infrastructure and technology, they would be nothing more than an annoying pest. Keep in mind, in Planet of the Apes, the only real advantage Apes had was that they were physically stronger but just as intelligent. They still relied on the same systems Humans did. This is not the case with wizards. The wizards rely on something humans cannot even fathom or possibly reverse engineer. Sure, they could steal things and try to invade, but wizards could just make more, and use locations protected by magical beasts and mental deterrent spells such as the Fidelius Charm, which makes a location intangible to anyone the Secret Keeper does not tell(http://harrypotter.wikia.com...) , the Repello Incimnium charm, which disintegrates any body that passes through the barrier it creates when used with Protego Maxima and Fianto Duri (http://harrypotter.wikia.com...). These can only be broken with extreme uses of magical spells, and considering that they are muggles, the barrier would prove unpassable. Wizards could permanantly keep an area once they take it."Yes, technology has caused harm to nature, but wizards have done worse. The time turner was a commercial disaster that threatened to disrupt the space time continuum and destroy the universe as we know it, which is a lot worse." That just strengthens my argument. When wizards create something they know can wreak unreparable destruction, they make common sense regulations and do not use it except under extreme guidane and supervision. This is not the case with Muggles. Muggles are allowed to pollute whenever they want, despite their pathetic laws, and unlike Wizards, the fabric of Muggle society itself is held together by destroying and exploiting nature."Wizards have been known to hunt for sport, and even capture infant dragons to use for cruel competitions." Con misunderstands my argument. I am not saying that muggles deserve to die for their behavior alone. What I am saying is, the way the Muggles morally justify their actions also justifies the act of wiping out muggles for sport, not to mention more reasonable causes such as (ironically) saving the planet."(also, I thought Harry had the only invisibility cape, passed down from the deathly hallows brothers)" Hmmm. It's not that he has the only cape that works. Harry Potter just has the only cape that does not wear off over time, and is protected from wear and tear. Here's a source to prove I'm not making this up. (http://harrypotter.wikia.com...)." If wizards destroy the "lesser" race, then eventually a new mutate will appear and wipe out the wizards, and the cycle will repeat. " If and when that does happen, wizards will fight back until they are destroyed, which will happen eventually. This will happen because everyone wants to survie, but in the end, the better species will win. This is what will happen to Muggles, and what will happen to Wizards as well."Humans have stopped evolving (in a sense, the new mutate has no advantage over the average human, and will not reproduce any faster, and so no large change will occur)" I disagree. Humans have not stopped evolving. If they had, Wizards would not be here. The reason that evolution has not taken it's course is because it has been delayed by the sentience of both of the species, who go against natures desire. In the end, though, it will be one species or the other. This is why Wizards must make sure it is them who survives." If Harry's magic is so great, why does he need glasses? Why can't he have magical eye surgery or something." Honestly, this is probably less due to any effects of the wizarding world and more of a decorative purpose for the author/reader."History of war is not a justification for more violence, and so Voldemprt would only be continuing a cycle of violence, no better than humans."Of course they are no better. The thing is, they would be no worse.Conclusion:Voldemort has the right idea because it isn't truly an idea. He is just acknowledging the inevitable fate. All of this hiding from the muggle world is just delaying the inevitable. He does not want to wait until the muggles have such high technology that it is indescernable from magic. It's nothing personal. Wizards are just the better species, and will take their place.
