Instead of Abortion, Adoption should be mandatory for unwanted children.

First of all thank you for your reply. On the subject of foster child suicide rate, if a baby is taken into a foster home it is mandatory that the home put that child's needs before anyone else in the home. This means that the child will have to go to a loving family as soon as possible regardless of foster home conditions. With proper childhood development and care for a baby, I might add, a child could have a chance to live a life that could have been taken away from them. Also, on the subject of foster care homes, most are state funded which require status checks often to help maintain order and care for the children living there. The topic stated in your second paragraph is something i have talked with many people before. The same "visceral" feeling that mothers who have aborted a child fees, is the same feeling that mothers who have given up their children for adoption feel. It is always better to choose the possibility of life over aborting an unwanted child. I agree with you on our third paragraph, actually. Federally outlawing abortion will not stop abortions, sadly. This however, is why we need the foster care system and need to encourage mothers to choose a life for their child instead of killing it. The foster care system is here to specifically help mothers who suffer with that terrible decision Even though back alley abortions will still happen if my solution is ever taken into account but that does not justify the fact that mothers selfishly choose to kill their child without giving it a chance to experience the gift of life. Sadly, I could not find any articles to cite my claims so this round I am speaking solely from experience as a brother to many fostered and adopted children who have come and gone from my home.
Instead of Abortion, Adoption should be mandatory for unwanted children.

I feel I should clear something up before I present my argument. In the case of life-threatening situations to the mother, Abortion is a moral option and I have nothing against situations like this as long as the child has not developed signs of being conscious or shown visible signs of life. This however is my opinion on Abortion during mid or late term To cut off the existence of an unborn child is not only immoral and selfish, it is also the deprivation of love and compassion to a possible person or family who are unable to have children or ones who simply wish to take care of forgotten children. My solution to the death of innocent children is to simply turn to a possible life for a human being instead of turning to killing them. Of course, Adoption is the most responsible choice for unwanted children because it promotes the greater good to the two or three people involved. The mother will not have a burden of a child she can not take care of, the child will have the possibility of the gift of life in or out of foster care, and the person or family that adopts the child who, with right training, raise the child. Many people will counter this argument however saying that no one will adopt a child or that there are not enough people to take the children who would be put up for adoption. The latter is admittedly true in most cases but a chance at life, even if it means living in foster care for their entire life, is better than most certain death. There also have been adults who live their entire lives adopting children and taking care of them because they feel it is their simple calling in life to help raise a child that could have been aborted. These families adopt nearly hundreds of children and foster even more. The idea that people will never adopt an unwanted child is completely biased towards the desperate love of wives and husbands who cannot have children and who will do anything in their power to raise child. I would also like to clarify, I will only debate anyone who knows what they believe about this subject and is willing to have a full debate on this topic.
Sheep shouldn't remove debates that are humorous

Ok it appears my opponent is arguing that the report button needs to be removed just because it seems to get debates he finds funny banned. Well this is actually a very self minded argument he is arguing because the report button is required for a lot of important reasons. Main reasons the report abuse button needs to stay are: 1. Users should not send or otherwise post unauthorized commercial communications (such as spam) on Debate. org. 2. Users should not collect users' content or information, or otherwise access Debate. org, using automated means (such as harvesting bots, robots, spiders, or scrapers).3. Users should not engage in unlawful multi-level marketing on Debate. org.4. Users should not upload viruses or other malicious code.5. Users should not solicit login information or access an account belonging to someone else.6. Users should not bully, intimidate, or harass any user.7. Users should not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.8. Users should not develop or operate a third-party application containing alcohol-related or other mature content (including advertisements) without appropriate age-based restrictions.9. Users should not use Debate. org to do anything unlawful, misleading, malicious, or discriminatory.10. Users should not do anything that could disable, overburden, or impair the proper working of Debate. org, such as a denial of service attack.11. Users should not facilitate or encourage any violations of these facts. These facts support why the report button is needed and these facts are far more important than protecting debates Pro just seems to find funny. Now I ask my opponent to counter argue these facts. I end my round 1 here. ..
final fantasy 7 is, indeed, the best final fantasy game ever(psp)

Now let us proceed: "I will start this debate by first saying that this game has some of the best graphics out of any other final fantasy game. Not only is it completely action packed, but it also has deep entrancing romance involved. You get to keep one consecutive character and get involved with adventurous mission, involved with betrayal, friendship, and sacrficing. this is also in other final fantasy games, but not like this i must say. if you have any points to add about another final fantasy, post them, andi will refute them thankyou. " First, I'd like for my opponent to expound on how this romance, adventure, sacrificing and betrayal makes this game better than any of the other FF games. Granted, all of these themes are pretty much a given for each game, thus he'll need to do more than merely point this out if he wishes this to be considered a reason as to why the FF game for the psp is indeed the best. Second, I would have to say that keeping one consecutive character is not necessarily a positive aspect. In the other games (such as FF7, FF8, FF9 and FF10), you not only had a main character, but other characters to play with as well. Thus, this not only enhanced the gameplay in allowing you to be more creative, but you got to control other characters and see them develop quite nicely. Third, what makes the PSP game far from the best is that it is merely a prequal to FF7. In other words, you pretty much know how the game is going to be resolved (provided you've played FF7). Thus, given that it stems from FF7, we have reason to believe that FF7 is in fact the superior game. This is not only based on the fact that it came first and is thus more original, but you have multiple characters to focus on, but that also traditional RPG based combat allows for more creativity from the player and more often than not even forces players to "think" outside the box and perform like a genuine tactician. That said, I'm short on time . . . thus this will be all I shall present for the time being. I shall further my position when I return. :D

Mine's bigger

Con says mine cant be bigger than Con's, because Con doesn't have one. But just what does it mean for something to be bigger? Bigger just means more big; The topic could be "Mine's more big". Here are 3 definitions for big - 1. Of considerable size http://goo.gl... 2. of great or considerable size http://goo.gl... 3. large in size http://goo.gl... However big mine is, it is certainly greater than Con's because Con's doesn't exist. 10 inches is bigger than 0 inches.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God

I look forward to reading your arguments. The Proposition is that "Jesus Christ is the Son of God. " Pro is the instigator. Pro affirms the proposition. Pro assumes the BoP in this debate. Pro's opening round acceptance requires no burden of proof for Con. Pro must prove the proposition in order to win the debate. For Pro 3 things must be demonstrated to confirm the proposition. 1. A god exist. 2. Jesus Christ existed/exists. 3. Jesus Christ is the son of the god. I'll take a neutral position on the 3 claims I don't know that a god exists. I don't know that Jesus Christ existed or exists I don't know that Jesus Christ is the son of a god. The floor is yours Pro. Happy debating.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God

Jesus Christ is the Son of God, He paid for the price for us to be free from sickness and sin. To accept this challenge you need to disagree with this statement. The first round is for the challenge to be accepted. The second round, I will demonstrate that He paid for your healing through a healing miracle. The third round, I will demonstrate that He paid the price to take away the sins of the world, and prove that salvation is only found through faith in His name.
"Intense" negotiations with terrorists should happen.

The death penalty IS wrong

Thank you, now my inital argument is that the government should and does not have the right to decide that taking a life is the ABSOLUTE right way to punish a person for any act in question. Its the moral equal to the mob killing a snitch. in thett3's debate with larstheloser, he used the philosophy that by killing someone, the person in question, he or she has violated the rules of society and in turn deserves to die. now I am personally a democrat, and a liberal, so pathologically geared towards looser sentences, (being that I think a lifetime sentences are a safe enough measure) I think that death sentences are, in turn, murder. wich, from my opponents philosophy, is a violation of society.
Clone for,? what about transfer a split personality into new body so the original can live normal

Clones would ruin the earth, the world already has enough people, the population increases by 3 in less than a second. Clones would be terrible not only will it increase the population, but it could be used for bad. Would if some dictator has clones? So many people have a split personality, too, and once cloning becomes legal the wrong hands will get onto it. Again a dictator can create an army. Look at it this way. In the 1920's they created cloning for split personality. Ten years later Hitler found this tech, he created an army. More scientist for the nuke and more engineers to build planes. Stalin could have created even more of his secret police, millions more would have died.
Clone for,? what about transfer a split personality into new body so the original can live normal

I live everyday with a split personality, I love the man I'm with we would marry each other if given the chance to be free of one another. I'd marry him he's everything I love in a man and he loves me. What do you all think of this, should we just live with ourselves as 1 or is there a chance that some type of cloning process could split us into the persons we both want to be? Please post a real honest opinion not something spiritual. BTW I'm not the man in a woman's body... the other way around
An Ideal Leader

(At least I'm the only one i've talked to with this opinion)To clarify a couple points so we are on the same page once we start:- This is not a leader of a nation. The sort of leader I am referring to is one of a smaller group. Just to quantify, lets say any group from 10-5000 people would be valid in this debate. - This is not a legal debate. There will be no use of laws from any form of government to be cited. (not intending to sound offensive, I just have minimal knowledge of legal aspects and am trying to keep the debate away from governments. ) - This leader would essentially have the only vote in all matters. At the end of the day, he has the final voice on every decision. Just to clarify, if he orders every person over the age of 80 to be killed, it will happen. (I in no way agree with this, just making sure everyone is on the same page here. The leader is essentially a dictator and can do whatever he desires to his people. )- I hope I have clarified most questions you may have. If any other questions surrounding the logistics of the situation, please ask them in the first round while accepting. I will respond to these questions in the second round so we're clear on everything before we begin. The statement I am arguing for:A leader should act in concurrence with the majority opinion of those he lead. I hope for an exciting first debate!

Snelld, I must admit you have some harsh Rhyme http://www.youtube.com... Enough to convince Tiger Woods to do some time But that would suit you, see while at least Me and Tiger are getting some You sitting on your virgin a** with a motherlode of unused c*m Hoes find you revolting, unattractive and unworthy, Hell Oprah Winfrey wouldn't do you for 5,700,230 Even if you could get that much from a bank heist Boy, you better start praying to Christ Or some other crazy occult prophet like L. Ron Hubbard Or Moses and spend World war 2 hiding in a cupboard. Oh wait, man you're Agnostic, can't make up your mind You're walking through all these religions blind Don't worry, I'll give you some advice Becoming a Muslim for the 72 women for no price Except your pitiful chaste life Which has probably gone through enough strife Especially since it's in a racial minorities body Even the pheromone detectors are shoddy. And what you sayin' 'bout me banging my cousins? Man that's just sick, grow a pair, I have a dozen I'll forgive you since you're not well taught Since you probably went to public school where intelligence is naught Or frowned upon since you're 'sposed to be ghetto And lookin' after your bro before your ho' Well that was easy, since you never had one And too afraid to go to a street corner and get the deal done Probably too afraid since your sister was there 11 years old and still willing to flash her pair For 20 bucks and 50 for more Still, compared to your mom nothing near a real wh**e Who had you and probably 50 other kids, Sucking day and night on her crack ho nibs Where was pops? Out doin' some smack Or working hard at some guys sack for 1 gram of crack Lucky enough her pimp came along F'ed your mom and your sisters with his king size dong Things were alright till your mom hit 50 Sagged and then your family weren't so thrifty But that's a long story I have no time for Since your little sister is waiting at the door.

I think this sucks, but anyway. http://www.youtube.com...

More like refusal of diversity Looks like the years of rejection from university Gave you guys moral perversity Affirmative action? Phhfft, more like a creative distraction By a black conciousness chain reaction The money spent is a fraction Compared to tax benefits for the White faction Yet you guys still moan about dissatisfaction Seems you guys and slavery still have an attraction. An agnostic libertarian? Pro obamacare and taxes, more like Authoritarian In the eyes of Ragnar, the near-anarchist Better hand you over to Cody, the bear fascist. Just before I say over and out, Let me leave you without a seed of doubt That my opponents argument is in rout And a little something to think about Snellds mind is agnostic man his brain must be caustic With the thoughts going through about being a Jew Or a pagan with strict economic adherence to Reagan I think it's known to you I've played my role as Nancy Drew Making Snelld a man no longer upheld But susceptible to words as bad as turds.
Girls Should Be Allowed to Play Professional Football Too!

Okay here's the thing. Are you sure these men aren't gay? I don't care if its a modified version. Women don't have have to be on the same team as men. They can get a girlfriend if they are sooooooo horny. If women were to join the same team as men. Men would be most likely have more respect. Girls don't have to be as strong as guys to play football. It isn't just football that incidents like these happen! All of these pictures were accidents or these guys were gay. This is not hunger for women in sports. YOU SEARCHED FUNNY SPORTS or something along those lines. People Photoshop this crap! The last picture you shown was probably a man on steroids or he was in the gym 24/7. Get a grip,man! Girls should play football. Maybe not with the men. They still should be able to play football.
Girls Should Be Allowed to Play Professional Football Too!

It is not fairI helped teach primary school math a few years back, you know what all the kids kept saying? "It's not fair". Billy has an apple juice and I dont. Kelly has a soda and I dont. John has a father and I dont. Jacob's dad doesn't beat him, but mine does. Life doesnt bend your way I told the kids, they dont like it but sorry. You cant make laws because its not fair.Also playing with boys will make the boys touch your butts and cause them to rape you. Men who play football get so horny they eventally turn gay. See this man hasn't had a women in ages, look what hes doing. Its even worse in the next pic The man is longing for the kiss of a women, he has to turn to men. Some even get sooooo horny they have sex right there on the football field If we add a women in the equasion, then all hell will break free and the mens will not focus on the football. Women are not strong as men. Look at a strong women She has no muscles. She has no build, she cannot handel a man football. Now look at a strong man That guy will rip everyone a part.The womens shouldplay the footballs.
Girls Should Be Allowed to Play Professional Football Too!

It is not fair that girls shouldn't be able to play professional football. I don't care if we don't play with the boys. Even if there are not enough girls to start multiple teams let that be the reason instead of " Girls cannot play". Whoever may accept this debate please know that I am passionate about being able to play football someday along with other passionate people. Good Luck and Please bring some good things to the table. No Swearing be nice and hopefully have fun!
Girls Should Be Allowed to Play Professional Football Too!

These men arent gay. Gays arent allowed in football. Pairing women up will cause the same problem. observe http://i907.photobucket.com...; />Actually maybe women should play football. I mean no, unacceptable. It is wrong to turn people gay against thier will.No they cannot get a girlfrien because they spend all their time on the field.They ahve no time for a girl. Men wouldnt have more respect. They would be hungry for teh butts. These pictures were not accidents and i did not search funny sports. I had all the pictures on my computer. You can prove these pictures arent fake by undergoing photo forensics. Learn it. The man is not on steroids he is an average football player. You get a grip. Women shouldnt play football.
Humans are stupid. (stupid- Lack of knowledge of all things and it's functions at a basic level)

My opponent has not offered real argumentation to affirm the resolution. He merely states that he has a "theory," but does not provide any evidence, proof, or application of the theory to the topic at hand. His "memory circumstance" does not prove that people are stupid. Why are humans stupid? How are humans stupid? In what way are humans stupid? My opponent has not given real argumentation or proof to affirm the resolution. Thus, the resolution has not been affirmed, and I hurge a Con vote. It seems my opponent is creating ridiculous debate topics quite recently. He makes one-round debates about topics that he does not support with facts or evidence. In fact, I was only given five minutes to create my statements. Thus far, my opponent has not been able to affirm the resolution or provide logical backing to his perspective. I heavily urge a Con vote. Thank you.
Humans are stupid. (stupid- Lack of knowledge of all things and it's functions at a basic level)

(Think fast) To define stupid, in a cosmic sense, not literal, we would have to look at the overall wealth of knowledge in the entire cosmos. It could be said that this is infinite, we don't know, but if it is not, we are nowhere near enough to knowing all of it. I have a theory. If you ask the question "Why?" to most any statement, then eventually you will come to the point where you do not know the answer. For example, many children ask their parents seemingly redudant questions "Why, how, etc." over simple things. The parent, usually, from what I've seen in my lifetime, is the eventual "I don't know." Until my oppenent disproves my own memory, then this point will forever stand. Judging by the wealth of knowledge out of our reach, it is safe to say we are stupid. VOTE MILK. Why did I say that? I don't know. Why? Because I'm too stupid to know. Why? I don't know. Why? I DON"T KNOW!!...........okay, daddy.....
