MTN Dew Causes Autism

Oh boy, this is a lot of stuff to take on. Because your argument is loosely organized into separate statements, I'll take each one on in turn. 1. "Perhaps the FDA is jut a pawn of Bush and they are lying about the ingredients." Even if the FDA is just a pawn of Bush, they're not the ones that lie about the ingredients - that'd have to be the manufacturers of Mountain Dew. The FDA does not, in fact, place the ingredient labels, they only require they be present, i.e. if you don't have the labels, the FDA makes sure your product doesn't ship. The more pressing (and hilarious) bit about "perhaps the FDA is just a pawn of Bush" is a claim completely unsubstantiated by concrete proof. I invite you to provide concrete evidence regarding this claim to prove to both me and the voters that your claim is true. 2. "Many scientific laws are known as theories because there are things we still don't know." I've never seen this one outside the context of a debate over evolution, but that doesn't mean this argument works here either. In general usage in the majority of society, the word "theory" does indeed conform to what you say. But that's not what a scientific theory actually is. The actual definition of a scientific theory is "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation." This means that the scientific theories you casually dismiss are actually quite solidly established. 3. "One o the things that has been kept from the general public is how the Bushenism Chromosome can infact [sic] invate our DNA and possibly made autistic. Most of the time it doesn't, but it is the cause of all autism." I find myself saying this a lot, but once again, please provide some substantial evidence for this massive claim. Until you do, your entire claim regarding this is null and void. 4. "MTN does not stand for "mountain" but actually stands for the plan known as "Many To None." I'll say it again, evidence, please! Your... well, frankly, conspiracy theories, are not exempt from the rigorous standards of argumentation we hold on this site. I (and those who vote on this debate, as a matter of fact) am highly interested to see any concrete evidence for your claims. Also, I'd like to point out that the "MTN" does stand for "Mountain" - it's on the can... [2] 3 "This is the New World Order directive in which they take out the many people in society that do not normally fall for their deception and make them believe the lies." So let me get this straight. The alleged plan you've been talking about plans to take out the world by giving the world autism? First of all, that's not how that works. As I already explained, autism develops *before* birth. Second, and possibly the funnier option, how is autism supposed to help take out people. Someone with autism can easily be just as productive to society as someone without. What's your "New World Order" going to do, force all the newly-autistic people to make eye contact or something? 4. "They will then rise out of their secret underground city they supposedly have under Denr International Airport and take over." I find it amusing that you acknowledge the uncertainness of the plan your are professing exists while you are talking about it. You actually implied some amount of doubt and skepticism when referring to the "secret underground city," practically undermining your entire argument. Also, I think you can probably guess that I'm going to ask for evidence on this one too. No-one is exempt from providing evidence. That's all I have to say in debunking your arguments. At this point I'd like to remind voters that pro has made many outrageous claims and has so far failed to provide any evidence. Please consider this as evidence of my opponent's credibility (or lack thereof). [1] https://en.wikipedia.org... [2] http://lmgtfy.com...
