It's no wonder you enlisted as a Marine to get blasted by C4 With this garbage, your a disgrace to what your homies died for! The difference between us is that I'm a real warrior, your morals are downward! The reason being is because you play it safe and scope from afar cuz your a coward! You talk about being a soldier, but your a disgrace to the human race! Learn when you talking to a real warrior and have dignity to look in his face! I bring intimidation through the nation like Revelation with my rap army in the wave equation! Let your interpretation be the implication of degeneration in the militant minds of dictation!

You think you can talk about science? You about to get murked I'm spitting on your grave site while I'm simply digging up dirt You necrotizing, realizing i been jeopardizing, you disgusing fearing this televising I'm brutalizing, advising you to be exercising the self-enticing arm you been emphasizing You messin' with a mechanically enhanced entity rhythmically entranced by this insanity The one that i made erratically balanced, weaponry chemically advanced to kill ya identity This is a cybernetic destruction, an alphabetic corruption, the arithmetic, synergetic, kinesthetic obstruction! I'm not the sympathetic production, homiletic instruction, the bionetic, aesthetic, diuretic fiend of deduction! Look at this wanna be amateur tryna rap using scientific terms, but can't explain crap! It's such a shame that this self-proclaimed soldier came unprepared for this rap attack! This is the Standford prison experiment where you'd be subjected to psychological torture Good vs. evil metaphysically collide like atoms crashing into each other, only you the mourner I'm stripping you away from your rights as a human being, in this battle, your being controlled! I'm in authority so you better recognize, disrespect me and i will end this right now head cold! In this battle you mentioned black holes in the cosmos, but that's fully harmless! Your not heartless because next round, i will show you Darkness' true essence!

Dead or Alive is better than Mortal Kombat

Mortal Kombat is the american franchise fighting game that has touched the hearts of many action gamers world wide. (http://en.wikipedia.org...). It is well known for it's unique characters, and brutal finishers. There are currenty 24 deifferent Mortal Kombat games (most fighting, but some even action-adventure), as well as movies, TV shows, books, and even a music album including music from the first Mortal Kombat game. The more modern Mortal Kombat games have #D grapics that are better than all of the Dead Or Alive games ever created. A key feature of Mortal Kombat are the fatalities: bloody ends to fights that result in the murder of the losing character in various gruesome ways, some depending on the character that won, and others depending on the background, as shown in Mortal Kombat 9. A video of all possible fatalities in Mortal Kombat 9 is the video that is shown on this argument.http://www.youtube.com... There are even special ends to fights that don't end in death, such as babalities(mk9), animalities and Mercy (both mk3). Mortal Kombat was made by Ed Boon and John Tobias. The first MK game was released in 2002, and since then, it has became a series people have loved since Street Fighter, only this was a whole lot bloodier. Btw, Ive never even heard of Dead or Alive until this debate.
Dead or Alive is better than Mortal Kombat

Tomonobu Itagaki came up with the story for Dead or Alive and the characters. He also revived Ninja Gaiden, another great game. This shows, that hard work went into Dead or Alive and it has been well thought out. Itagaki is a great game designer and has helped create many great games. Dead or Alive is well known for it's sex appeal in its female characters, notably (and quite ridiculously in my opinion) the animation of their breasts. This can be seen as a good thing though, as it helped the game gain a lot of fame and popularity. I don't think this is a setback as the game also has a cast of male characters, different ethnicities, ages and fighting styles. I think it caters to both men and women (given they like fighting games. This debate will not be about whether fighting games are steered toward men). Dead or Alive focuses on fast 3D gameplay, and unlike other fighting games, encourages the player to strike their opponent quickly and efficiently rather than slow heavy attacks, or long and technical string attacks. This means that the game is fun for new players as well as experienced players, as you can either 'mash buttons' and still have a chance of winning or you can focus on pulling off special attacks and dodging your opponent's strikes. The Dead or Alive franchise also has a great story line. Each game can be considered a good stand alone, or can be played in order to create a rich and full story featuring DOATEC Competitions, as well as complex relationships between characters, will extensive back stories. There are 19 games and spinoffs in the Dead or Alive franchise, showing that they are not a one trick pony and have the ability to keep producing fresh new material, while not changing too much. They also produced a film titled DOA: Dead or Alive, showing they do not just stick to video games.
The purpose of education is the development of the person.

Education helps develop a person. People are continuously being educated through daily activities all through their lives. For now, I will simply focus on education in the terms of a classroom. In "Pedagogy of the Oppressed", Freire discusses how the circumstances of a classroom can effect what the student takes from the class. Freire is against what he called the "banking" system of education. His saw this method to be oppressive as it belittles and dehumanizes the students to "a container" that is waiting to be filled by the "all-knowing" teacher. So I ask you this: when a teacher is oppressive and does not allow discussion, and therefore does not make connections to reality, how is a student supposed to relate what is learned in the classroom to his/her own life? For this exact reason, Freire came up with problem-posing education; this method allows interaction between the students and the teacher, thus encouraging connections to be made in real life situations. Freire states: "Banking education resists dialogue; problem-posing education regards dialogue as indispensable to the act of cognition which unveils reality." When a person is able to make these exceptional life connections through dialogue, they are then able to grow as a person and develop themselves.
The purpose of education is the development of the person.

You did not find a contradiction in my statement. In fact you only helped prove my thesis further. By stating, "This"no one is seen as higher, or better, than the other" your saying that uniqueness does not exist. If uniqueness does not exist, can we also say individuality is not present as well? The environment you describe, where there is no oppressor, is "supposed" to be influencing the characteristics of individuality. However, if the "ideal" learning environment includes "teachers and students being "simultaneously teachers and students,"" does that not mean that everyone is on the same level of existence? Therefore, once again, individuality could not possibly exist if everyone is on the same level of being and therefore no one develops anymore than another. Education subsists to create a society filled with ordinary people. Education cannot possibly focus on creating individuals for a multitude of purposes. There is a reason why classes are taught in groups and subject matter is universal among a society. Companies such as Exxon and CBS only put money towards American schools for one purpose; they want society to develop collectively, not individually. What good would the growth of a single being be when society runs as a unit? This is the problem Hirsch describes so well, "The chief function of literacy is to make us masters of the standard instrument of knowledge." A person included in the one third of society that is illiterate could not possibly effectively communicate with the valedictorian of Harvard.
The purpose of education is the development of the person.

You said you were referring to the life of society and not the life of the individual. Yet, society is made up of individuals, so your statement contradicts its self. What is society if no one exists? You agreed with me when I referred to oppressive education as brainwashing and wrong for the individual, and yet you say it is necessary for society. How can something be appropriate for the group if it damages the individual, which the group consists of? In fact, you stated, "Individuality is what breaks a society; unity is what brings it together." The problem with society does not have to do with individuality, but the fact that humans are not treated with respect. For this instance, I am referring to misconception of the authority in the classroom. This takes us back to the issue of oppression. Freire believes the solution to this problem is that the teachers and the students should both be "simultaneously teachers and students." This simply means that no one is seen as higher, or better, than the other; it is a "give and take" learning environment. The overall fact is that we are all continuously learning and developing through the new information we encounter. "In this incompletion and this awareness lie the very roots of education as an exclusively human manifestation." We as humans are supposed to develop throughout our lives; we grow with each unique experience. This education is what makes us individuals. This education is what makes an outstanding, well versed society. This education is what encourages us to develop.
The purpose of education is the development of the person.

The teaching method of oppressive education you refer to as, "brainwashing," is in fact wrong for the standards you mentioned. However, in terms of creating a successful society, the interests of a person"s "development" are minimal compared to the society itself. Although teachers may be oppressive, it is the most effective form of schooling for the benefit of the group. Individuality is what breaks a society; unity is what brings it together. Education is nothing more than a form of creating a universal environment where people have common background knowledge to interact and succeed for the benefit of all beings. As Hirsch said, "If strangers share very little knowledge, their communications must be long and relatively rudimentary." When you previously said, "To effectively develop one"s life"focus on the development of one"s self," you misconstrued my statement by assuming that I was referring to the "life" of an individual, when I was actually referring to the life of society. Oppressive education is wrong in the development of an individual, but for the purposes of a culture it is a more than an ideal technique that allows society to operate successfully. This is why this system of "teaching" is continuously utilized; it is for the greater good.
The purpose of education is the development of the person.

How can one relate what one has learned in the classroom if one is not permitted to explore and question what is being taught? You previously said, "The goal of education is"the development of life." People are alive, are they not? To effectively develop one"s life, would one not have to first focus on the development of one"s self? It is vital to put emphasis on the individual before the attention can be placed on society as a whole. As Freire states, "the solution is not to "integrate' them into the structure of oppression, but to transform that structure so that they can become "beings for themselves."" The society you are referring to is full of clones; no one is able to break free from the standard knowledge that is being fed to them in the classroom. How would you define the quality of a society where no one is able to think for themselves and express themselves as an individual? Would this not be considered a form of dictatorship? I do not believe oppressive education to be a method of teaching; it is a form of brainwashing. Nothing, not a person or society, can develop from this practice.
The purpose of education is the development of the person.

You previously said, "So I ask you"how is a student supposed to relate what is learned in the classroom to his/her own life." The purpose of education is not the development of the person. Education, according to Hirsch is purposeful for the development of a society. What is learned in the classroom relates to a persons life. If a student in class learns anything, that knowledge will be carried forward to the society in which the person resides. People are only pieces to the puzzle of life. The goal of education is to achieve the important aspects of a society, which include economic prosperity, social justice, and an effective democracy. Hirsch says, "The complex undertakings of modern life depend on cooperation of many people with different specialties in different places." The goal of education is not the development of the person, but rather the development of life.
should video games be considered a sport

Hi, thank you for the debate, can't wait to get this under way. First off, I'd like to note that the opposition fails to cite a source on his definition. Let's break down the definition you provided: "An athletic activity" The definition I'll be using for athletic is "of or relating to athletes; involving the use of physical skills or capabilities, as strength, agility, or stamina:" (1) Video games require quite a bit of physical skill, and a good example is first person shooters. To be able to make the precise movements needed to be successful in the game requires skill. "requiring skill or physical prowess" Again, we'll have to define skill here: "the ability, coming from one's knowledge, practice, aptitude, etc., to do something well:" (2) As stated above, being able to make precise movements with a mouse or controller requires skill, and can be constantly improved with practice. Video games don't require physical prowess. "often of a competitive nature" Certain games are incredibly competitive, and can offer multiple million dollar prize pools at the top levels. Examples include the upcoming Dota 2 tournament, "The International", which has a $20 million dollar prize pool (3), that top teams can compete for and CS:GO's PGL Major Krakow with a 1 million dollar prize pool (4). Both games are already competitive in nature, but with the added prize pool, it's hard to make a case about them not being competitive. So to recap, I've proved that video games are an athletic activity, require skill, and are competitive, which fits the definition Con provided in his opening round Sources: (1)- http://www.dictionary.com...
