Abortion Is Good For Society

Why are people so sensitive and controversial about abortion? Abortion is just eliminating a fetus from a woman's womb. How is that even bad? Because a fetus is considered to have life since it can grow, think, feel, and develop? A fetus is a fetus; it is not human until it comes out of the mother's womb. Until then, it is just ... a fetus! Fetuses are even less functional than animals - they can't locomote, they can't think, they can't reproduce, they can't have emotions, and they can't communicate. A human is not considered human until they come out of the mother's womb, like said before. Now I know that abortion is very controversial and that many people feel that you are robbing unborn humans of their life, but they aren't even alive. How would they know if they were going to die? Will they feel anything at all? They can't! Abortion is not killing an unborn human; it is simple removing a fetus - a parasite - from your body because you decide it to. I could go on forever on how a fetus is not a human, but if you refuse to accept that a fetus and a human aren't the same, then that is too bad for you. There are many situations where I feel that abortion is totally acceptable and situations where it isn't, such as the following below: -When a woman gets raped and is forced to become pregnant -When a woman gets pregnant from unprotected sexual intercourse -When a woman discovers their child is going to become mentally retarded -When a woman discovers their child will have diseases, illnesses, and disabilities -When a woman's own life is in grave danger when in labor Situations where I feel the complete opposite are few, but they are here anyways: -When another person forces to remove the fetus from the pregnant woman -When a woman cannot financially support a child because they are too lazy -When a woman wants to abort the fetus just to avoid responsibility Some may ask me: How would you feel if you were aborted? If I'm still not alive, I can't exist! And if I can't exist, I wouldn't be here! And if I wasn't here, I wouldn't be able to tell you my opinions or confess my feelings because I simply do not exist! It doesn't matter if the fetus wants to exist or not, it's entirely up to the decision of the mother and nobody else. The fetus isn't going to come back from the dead and seek revenge, like some ignorant religious people claim to be the case if you do abort. Bottom line, abortion is totally normal as you are just removing a parasite from your body. Yes, it's a parasite because like an actual parasite, it is literally feeding off of the host's nutrients and living inside and contributes nothing to give back. Parasites will also leave the host when they are ready to do so. Therefore, abortion is not about killing human life, it is just about removing an unwanted parasite from your womb.
The suffering of mankind [in this life or the afterlife] is not the fault of God.

I'm gonna use my opening argument from my last debate. Hope nobody has a problem with that. If so, too bad. Oaky I believe that this topic of debate is pretty self explanitory. Everyday horrible autrocities happen. People are murdered, rapped, robbed, and treated like trash, but God cannot be blammed for these happenings. It is all the doing of man, and whats worse is that lots of people are sent to hell all the time. God cannot be blammed for this either, because that us the fault of that indivisual. Overall we know right from wrong, sometimes we feel as if we cannot help doing the wrong thing when placed in a certian situation, but in most cases we can, we just cannot [or dont want to] see it any other way. Life is just one big test of endurance. Can you endure the challenges it throws at you, or will you fall victum to life's autrocities? Only God can answer that, but only you can make it happen, and if you happen to fall into the losers bracket, God cannot be blammed, nor the guy that stole your car, or your abusive steapfather[just examples]. ONLY YOU! You, as well as every other human being suffer at the hands of other humans, and weather or not you become like those oppresors is not the decision of God nor the fault of God. IT IS ALL UP TO YOU! Well, Im done ranting. Im gonna save my real arguments for the debate, but first lemme set down some groundrules. i. I am a Muslim, as a result I will speak and explain myself from a Muslim POV. I would greatly appreciate it if the person who ends up being my opponant tries to respect my religion and [if you must] argue against my logic as far as the debate goes rather then my religious views. ii. Though my opponant my or may not believe in God, I would like him/her to remain respectful of him while speaking. iii. Overall respect the debate and stay within it's boundaries please and i will respect you. Thank you. I wish you the best of luck. Peace and blessings of Allah be upon you.
It's time to bring back the sedan chair

As a "hot man", myself, I sick and tired of being objectified by women, I'll have you know that I'm not just a sexual play thing and I am perfectly capable of performing more demanding tasks than simply being eye candy for female passengers of sedan chairs. Regarding being discriminatory towards the obese, let's just remind ourselves that, if and when my sedan chair proposal is accepted, gravitationally-challenged people will be better off than they are now. That's because, at the moment, only cripples and mothers with babies are allowed to park in the spaces nearest the entrance, but in the future, shoppers with high calorie diet preferences; people with salad intolerance issues; customers with outsized skeletal frames; people with gymphobia, sufferers of crustulam adjectio syndrome and shoppers with other medical conditions that lead to obesity will be allowed to join them. That's hardly "cruel" is it? Regarding online shopping, I understand that this is an increasingly popular mode of purchasing goods, especially with people of a certain size, as it means that the only walking involved is to answer the door when the items are delivered. However, it is not an ideal way of shopping for everything, for example clothes. I know one girl, for instance, who is in self-denial about her weight and says she is a dress size 6 when, in fact, she at least a size 8, more probably a size 10, and when she shops for clothes online she gets very frustrated because she has to return most of the garments as they are too small for her. On the last occasion she tried on a dress that had to been delivered but it was such a tight fit that she couldn't unzip it and she had to be cut out of it, thus ruining it completely. So we can see that, in some cases, it is still better to go to the mall to make your purchases direct. Finally, the cost of renting a couple of guys on minimum wage carrying a fancy wooden box on poles is not going to break the bank, and ladies on a budget could pay for this service by sacrificing one or two expensive luxuries such as exfoliating scrubs; air-fresheners; lip balm; fabric softener; tea cosies; hair conditione; bath salts; lace table cloths; designer bottled spring water; napkin rings; moisturising cream and paper doilies and the cake stands they go on, none of which I have ever bought and have managed to live without perfectly successfully. In conclusion, there is no good reason why shopping malls shouldn't bring back the sedan chair. Thank you.
It's time to bring back the sedan chair

I would thank Brian Eggleston for this debate if it were not so offensive and discriminatory to obese people.More than a third of Americans are obese (1). Therefore it is just mockery to suggest that they should be allocated parking spaces near the mall. It would need to be more than one third of the carpark, and those people on the edges of that third would still have an uncomfortable distance to walk.Furthermore, obese people would like a sedan chair more than normal people, because they have more weight to carry about when walking. So it's really cruel to make them walk about the mall while slimmer people are lording about in sedan chairs.Pro's proposal is cruel and discriminatory towards one third of American citizens and I urge voters to react in disgust.My second objection is pragmatic. This business of a "small fee" and "jobless young people". Nobody likes to see sullen, pimply teenagers lingering about in a shopping area. To have hoards of them hanging about in the car park, scowling, and leaning against their empty sedan chairs would ruin the shopping experience for many people. There needs to be a reward system so that only hot men, brisk and polite, are carrying the sedan chairs. This is the only way to encourage women (the majority of retail shoppers (2)) to the mall. But it would be prohibitively expensive, which would drive up prices too much.People are buying stuff online more and more and going to the mall less (3). Pro is to be commended for trying to find ways of making mall shopping more appealing to Americans. However, a system that is cruel to one third of the market, and drives up the prices for the remainder is only going to increase the rate of people taking up shopping on-line.Thank you.(1) http://www.cdc.gov...(2) http://www.retailleader.net...(3) http://www.forbes.com...
It's time to bring back the sedan chair

Did you know that the average American walks a little under 400 yards a day? (1) This is truly a shocking statistic, I'm sure you will agree. I mean, The US is supposed to be the country where convenience is king: the country that provides its citizens with wonderful facilities such as drive-thru restaurants, drive-in churches, drive-thru banks and drive-in theatres so that people can save the effort of getting out of their cars and using their legs. Yet, here we are in the 21st Century and Americans still find themselves having to walk almost 400 yards a day to conduct their lawful business. So why is all this undue expenditure of energy necessary? Well, I'll tell you. American shopping malls are usually huge and they often have massive parking lots. This means that shoppers are often forced to walk 400 yards or more just to get from their cars to the mall entrance and back, never mind walking between the various stores. This is a scandal, of course, but don't worry: I know how to put things right. It's time to bring back the sedan chair. In the olden days, sedan chairs were used to convey passengers relatively short distances through the crowded, narrow city streets where a horse and carriage were too big and cumbersome (2) but, these days, they could usefully be brought back into service to carry shoppers around American shopping malls. That's right, for a small fee, two mall employees with a sedan chair will collect you from your car, ferry you to the mall, carry you around the stores, and deliver you back to your car again so you can do all your shopping without your feet ever having to touch the ground. Now, I know what you are thinking: "What about the problem of obesity?" I've thought about that, and I realised that obese people wouldn't fit into a sedan chair, and even if they could, it would be too heavy to lift, so I speculated that the mall could provide wheelbarrows for them instead, but wheelbarrows would be too unwieldy and difficult to control and, if they tipped over, the obese passenger could crush a dog or small child as they fell out. Therefore, for health and safety reasons, I have decided that obese people should be allocated dedicated parking spaces near the mall entrance so they don't have to walk too far. This is my best idea yet, bringing as it will, further convenience to the American consumer as well as valuable employment opportunities for jobless young people wishing to start their career in the sedan chair-footman profession, and I urge you to vote Pro in support of my proposal. Thank you. (1) http://www.independent.co.uk... (2) http://www.ltmcollection.org...

Blacklivesmatter vs Alllivesmatter (the movement)

Really, you think it's "generalizing" to think negatively about an organization that has clearly shown violent tendencies. What's your next argument; "You shouldn't general the crips and the bloods based off a few violent members, as a whole they're both still peaceful organizations." See how stupid your logic sounds when applied to any other circumstance. And no, you generalizing my race and me "generalizing" a rogue organization are completely different. By the way, for the record, I'm not even 100% white. I'm half white half Hispanic. Long story short, if you really want peace between the races, you would support all lives matter, a movement that stresses the importance of all lives, not the lives of one particular race.
Blacklivesmatter vs Alllivesmatter (the movement)

Micheal Brown stole a pack of cigars, and his life was taken. Dylann Roof killed 9 people, and is still alive. One of the things blacklivesmatter advocates is fighting the streotypes that everyone believes in. It's not a wide spread, but their are more than Sandra Bland and Tamir Rice but their shouldn't be a single one. All of those people that I listed, didn't even get justice. They weren't a very violent group, the FBI brainwashed you by framing them multipe times. They did commit some crimes of violence but they also did provide food, education & safety to minorities in America. It's not generalizing you, regardless it's YOUR people. Who killed him,racism that murdered him. Even if your getting mad at me for streotyping you, you continued to do it on number four by making me click a link that had negative things on blacklivesmatter. [Closing paragraph] Blacklivesmatter is a movement that helps protect minorties in America. African Americans created blacklivesmatter because their kids were not wearing black anymore scared they were going to get shot, not being proud of their African American roots because they were never looked at as good. As a black child, witnessing the blacklivesmatter movement made me proud to be African American & proud of my roots to the point that I started to celebrate Kwanzaa.I know that their are many flaws in the movement, violent protest & people who are doing more harm than good. But regardless their are peaceful protest, you may not hear are about them but I see them. Saying alllivesmater takes away the attention on African Americans and their long fight against racism, prejudice people & discrimination. No one has alllivesmatter protest. I support blacklivesmatter and only want peace between the races.
Blacklivesmatter vs Alllivesmatter (the movement)

1. "Tell Sandra Bland that, or maybe Tamir Rice, possibly Micheal Brown" You named individual instances of African Americans being shot by police. That is not a sign of a wide spread epidemic at all. And you cannot possibly defend Michael Brown, he was a thief who robbed a store and resisted arrest. 2. "As you haven't noticed the black panthers (not the best black activist but a valid one) was not violent, they had their share of violence but not that much and they still were looked down upon." The Black Panthers were a very violent group. They were responsible for countless acts of violence during their time, and their descendants, the New Black Panthers, are even worse. 3. "To bad he isn't alive because YOUR people killed him..." Glad to know you generalize me. First you attack me for "generalizing" black lives matter, then you generalize all white people. How classy. 4. If you really want to find out how "peaceful" BLM is, click the link. http://www.dailymail.co.uk...
Blacklivesmatter vs Alllivesmatter (the movement)

But the entire cause of Black Lives Matter is based on a wide spread myth. Despite what they've brainwashed people to believe, the cops are out to protect their communities, not to go out and kill black children.Also, I have to say my biggest flaw with the blacklivesmatter movement is that they frequently resort to rioting, looting, and violence to get their point across, that is a fact. If Martin Luther King Jr were still alive, he'd be incredibly disappointed in them.Tell Sandra Bland that, or maybe Tamir Rice, possibly Micheal Brown would like to know that their protecting us not shooting us. If you're going to genralize all activist for blacklivesmatter but not generalize cops than you are being a bit hypocritical. They are to protect us and we know that but when I have a fear that when I walk out of my house with a black hoodie that I can possibly be shot then we start to worry. It's not just children their killing either.As you haven't noticed the black panthers (not the best black activist but a valid one) was not violent, they had their share of violence but not that much and they still were looked down upon. Not all activist are like that, not all protest are like that but you have to imagine the anger in people when they find out their local friend was killed based on the color of their skin. To bad he isn't alive because YOUR people killed him, and he was peaceful.

When does saying blacklivesmatter mean all lives do not? Blacklivesmatter was created due to the police brutality towards african american, the fight of racism towards african american, breaking the black streoetypes, etc. Saying allivesmatter takes away the spotlight on blacks which is why blacklivesmatter was created, and before you say "what about the other races who face opression?" their are movement that they can create. Things like muslimlivesmatter was created to help muslims face islamphobia not to take away attention to blacks.Imagine this, your house is on fire. You call the fire departement but they start spraying water on all the house because ALL HOUSES MATTER, but are the other houses on fire? No, you called the fire department so they can help your house by putting out the fire of your house because yours is the one that is having problems. When someone says "Feed the hungry children" do you reply with "Feed all the children?" No, it should be the same thing as race.
Alex Rodriguez in the Hall of Fame

For what the Con has said, it has made it look like that any player in Major League Baseball who has taken some steroids or performing enhancing drugs in their career do not deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. So such players as Barry Bonds, all-time MLB home leader, Roger Clemens, 7 time Cy Young Award winner and 11 time All-Star, Curt Schilling, 19 year veteran pitcher and 3 time World Series champion, Manny Ramirez, 12 time All-Star and 9 time Silver Slugger Award winner, and Mark McGwire, 12 time All-Star and 2 time World Series champion should be not allowed in the Hall of Fame? I say put the drugs aside and look at what they accomplished in their lives. This includes Alex Rodriguez. So I say Alex Rodriguez was a great player especially for his age. He is a role model to many children in Little League and around the country. His number definitely show his qualification to be in the Hall of Fame.
Alex Rodriguez in the Hall of Fame

True, true however, Alex started to use steroids in 2003, and before 2003 he did have 298 which is a lot in only 9 seasons but he is tainted by using steroids because after the 298 homers in 9 seasons. Then suddenly he got 349 in 10 seasons. I will admit Alex, is a very good player but, he could be better if he didn't use steroids. I end my case.
