Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) is better than Goku

-- As in anything, he can do anything, such as freeze Goku. Bills cannot destroy galaxies; it was a dub error. One of the people who are nearly capable of destroying the universe is Omega Shenron, which is now official, according to Akira. The way Kyle Rayner uses his ring isn't slow. He could easily overkill Goku within seconds. It is just as Sinestro vs. Hal Jordan fight went in GL. -- As in nigh-omnipotent, I don't think you understand. Whatever Kyle wants to possess, he can easily get it within seconds, especially if we are talking about Kyle who is more trained before he was just now figuring out his capabilities. And in battle, I'm sure Goku just doesn't rush his opponents as if he's angry, except when he's pushed to his limits. Kyle isn't evil at all -- and while Goku would be sitting there, Kyle would be able to spawn a sun, lower his gravity, or he can spawn duplicates with identical power. -- Bills is a solar system buster at best -- and a solar system is tenuous compared to a galaxy. Therefore, Bills's Supernova cannot destroy a galaxy. Supernovas can only affect things such as atmosphere, suns, etc. Wikis are fanmade websites which misinterpret actual manga rules.

Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) is better than Goku

Greetings to my opponent and Debate Dot Org.As the contender, I contest each of the instigator's claims and request that he provide proof to support his assertions that Kyle Rayner is omnipotent or that he could throw Goku into "a sun."1. Goku is faster than Kyle Rayner.At the start of the series, Dragon Ball Z, the antagonist, Raditz was stated as being "faster than light." (1). Raditz was recorded as having a power level of 1500 (2). After becoming a Super Saiyan, Goku was listed having a power level of 150,000,000 (3). Although this was the last recorded power level in the series, Goku had grown significantly stronger over the course of the series' remaining story arcs and received an additional power boost when he became a Super Saiyan god in the film Dragon Ball Z: Battle of the Gods.Still though, light moves at 186,000 miles per second. Goku's power level as a Super Saiyan was 100,000x greater than Raditz's, who was faster than light. Since Raditz was fater than light, Goku is at least 100,000x faster than light.On the other hand, not only has Kyle Raner ever shown such speeds, but is only capable of moving faster than light when traveling.(4) On the other hand, as we saw with Raditz, he can move faster than light in the midst of combat. Goku can move at least 100,000x faster.2. Goku's destructive capacity exceeds Kyle Raner'sIn the most recent Dragon Ball Z movie, Goku, in his most powerful form, is 90% as powerful as the god of destruction, Bills.(5) Bills is stated as being powerful enough to destroy an entire galaxy.(6). Therefore, Goku is at very least powerful enough to destroy 90% of a galaxy in one blast. This is well corroborated by other character feats, such as Broly destroying a galaxy in the past and Cell threatening to wipe out the entire solar system in the middle of the Dragon Ball Z series.3. Because Goku is faster and more powerful than Kyle Raner, he could incinerate him before he had any time to use his power ring.Kyle Raner's ring is a powerful weapon, but it's also his greatest weakness. The weapon requires thought to function. It takes 300-500 milliseconds to process a thought. (7) In other words, 3/10 or 1/2 of 1 second. Since Goku in one of his weakest states moves at least 100,000x faster than 186,000 miles per second, he could end the fight before Kyle Raner was even able to process that he was in a fight. Mr. Raner's greatest weapon is his greatest liability. Goku could fire a galaxy destroying blast long before Mr Raner was able to use his ring.Sources(1) (Piccolo noting that "He's faster than the speed of light" in reference to Raditz).(2) http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net... (see bottom left panel).(3) http://static3.wikia.nocookie.net...; also see: http://dragonball.wikia.com...(4) http://greenlantern.wikia.com...(5) http://dragonball.wikia.com...

Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) is better than Goku

As in better, I mean superior in every aspect. Kyle Rayner is omnipotent. He could easily make a sun and throw Goku into it. Even if Goku tries to generate power from others, it still wouldn't suffice. There's nothing Goku would be able to do to him. "No hard upper limit to the power ring's capabilities has yet been demonstrated; it is often referred to as "the most powerful weapon in the universe. Whatever the GL imagines, it will be created." However, it is quite obvious that the power ring is superior to the potara earrings in every aspect. GLs are omnipotent.
The God of the Bible Exists

I am offended by your comment at the bottom Kohai but your whole argument is irrevelent even if the Bible was inacurate it would not make God/YHWH/Allah not exist.If the Bible was inacurate like the Old testament and the New testament the God of Islam who is also the God of Judaism and Christianity would still exist it would simply leave room for the Muslim belief the Tanakh and Bible have been corrupted and the Quran is correct therefore scripture being true or not does not make God exist in round 2 I will explain possible mistranslation.
Rainbow Dash vs Applejack

It seems that Con has dropped most of my arguments and rebuttals, so they are automatically conceded. Extend them. Procrastination RD was actually practicing some flying moves for the festival to show to the Wonderbolts, so she didn't need to be clearing the sky at that exact moment. She also tells Twilight she can clear in the sky "in ten seconds flat", which she proves to her right afterwards. There's no need for RD to be working on clearing the sky when there's other things that need to be done, and it can be done very fast anyway. This is nothing close to procrastination. Competitive Being competitive is not a bad thing, and Con hasn't shown how RD is being "overly" competitive by any standard. Naturally she would not enjoy losing as she practices flying everyday and is one of the fastest pegasi around. There is really nothing about being competitive that is really bad at all in her case. I'd argue that taking a challenge is better than backing down from it. Mischief There's nothing wrong with a few pranks every once in a while. When RD and Pinkie went on their pranking spree, their "victims" were, at best, annoyed, but they all found it amusing. No harm was done. Con didn't make any arguments for Applejack, has dropped basically everything I've said previously, and doesn't contest my arguments for RD being the best. This should be a clear choice. Even if you don't think RD is the best, you must admit my case is more compelling than my opponent's.
Rainbow Dash vs Applejack

RD's clear disadvantages that cause her to fail:ProcrastinationIn episode one of My Little Pony, RD is seen procrastinating by not cleaning the sky of clouds. She refuses to clean up the sky until Twilight Sparkle challenges her. This instance will be mentioned later in my argument.OvercompetitivenessRainbow Dash practically admitted this disadvantage in "Fall Weather Friends" when she states that she hated losing. Even worse, she couldn't stand her loss and challenged Applejack in the Iron Pony competition. Another example is one I used earlier. She was procrastinating her duty to clean the sky of clouds and only started to clean when Twilight Sparkle challenged her. She can't stand backing down from a challenge.Mischievousness This might as well be RD's reason for failing. First, let's start with the fact that there was a whole episode surrounding Rainbowdash and Pinkie Pie's pranking various ponies. In "Griffon the Brush Off", Rainbow and Pinkie "bonded" by going on a pranking spree;they even pranked some of their friends, including Spike.Another case of Rainbow's mischievousness is when she tried to make the guards laugh in "A Bird in the Hoof". Applejack = Awesomeness
Rainbow Dash vs Applejack

All right! I'm going to show these peeps why Applejack is definitely the best pony.Hard-workOne area in which is undoubtedly in favor of Applejack's side is the sheer nature of her hard-work and determination.A. Applejack is constantly spotted working in Sweet Apple Acres, such as the instance in "Friendship is Magic Part 1" where she is kicking a tree in a successful attempt to get apples to fall to the ground before her encounter with Twilight Sparkle. I'm sure my opponent and I can agree that constant effort and work on a farm is a sign of a hard-working individual. RD doesn't work nearly as often as Applejack does. She is constantly spotted procrastinating and goofing off.B. In the episode "Apple buck Seasons" Applejack's brother, Big McIntosh, has suffered from an injury. He is unable to help with the annual apple harvest. So, Applejack insists on tackling the annaul apple harvest all by herself. After many offers from her friends for assistance, Applejack continues to deny their offers. Eventually, after all her hard-work, there came a price. Applejack had worked so hard to the point that she had passed out.C. Applejack has been known to work so hard that she has forgotten to have fun and bond with her family. In the episode "Apple Family Reunion" Granny Smith appoints Apple Jack to host the reunion. Applejack becomes so caught up in her planning that she forgets to have fun and bond with her relatives.AthleticismApplejack possesses extraordinary athletic abilities. She is amazing with the lasso and for a living she harvests trees by kicking them to forcibly knock apples out of them.CaringRD displays the most basics forms of empathy towards individuals; however, Applejack shows much compassion and care towards even the most uncanny of recepients. An example may be her beloved apple tree in the episode "Over a Barrel".RD is the element of ambition. Applejack, however, posseses a much more appealing character trait. Applejack reflects the principles of an honest person.Applejack proves to be of a good service to Ponyville in "Applebuck Seasons". Applejack saves the day alongside her dog, Winona, by stopping the stampede that was about to destroy Ponyville.Applejack is clearly the best. Back to you Pro.
Rainbow Dash vs Applejack

Resolved: As opposed to Applejack, Rainbow Dash is the best pony.Pony: a typical character in the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Here's a picture of the two characters. Rainbow is on the left; Applejack on the right: Alright, here are a few rules:1. BOP is shared, so both debaters make their own arguments.2. First round is acceptance only.3. Voting is on arguments only.Sources on my part will basically be episodes. Let it begin!
Everything is an illusion.

I will continue to be civil. Bornofgod, this post will be brief because there is no reason for it to be long. As I said before, you cannot convince me/us of any of your beliefs without reference to external evidence. You can testify of your experiences, but as I/we have no reason to trust you. You could (forgive me for saying this) be lying through your teeth, deceived by Satan, or mentally unstable. Only if you can prove your beliefs are credible from external, reliable sources such as the Bible or empirical evidence will I/we be prepared to investigate them, much less accept them as truth. I discredited all your scripture references as totally misconstrued and out of context, so you give up. The Bible does not help you. There is no explicit or implicit proof that everything we see is an illusion. I was sorry at first that I had only made this debate three rounds, but now I am glad because this debate is not going anywhere. If you had any real evidence you should have put it in the 2nd round, as your argument needs hardly any refutation. Science and the Bible both testify to the "realness" of this world. There is no evidence everything is an illusion. You have given none. When I have shown the very scriptures you use actually go against you, you say that scriptures just confuse believers and that believers should just listen to you saints. This is a sure sign of a cult. Setting yourself up as a prophet of God over and above scripture is dangerous, and if you continue I am sure your punishment in hell will be harsh. Goodbye. You said yourself that God's saints weren't meant to show proof that God exists. So feel free to stop trying, as debating seems to be against your nature. Your position is without evidence, and I hope no reasonable person will vote Pro. Again, even Pro believes God is not an illusion. I rest my case.
Everything is an illusion.

Bornofgod has a few interesting ideas--make that truths--that I differ (and disagree) on. Foremost is his belief that everything is an illusion, and that that God created that illusion. Bornofgod, can you please restate your arguments that everything is an illusion? Feel free to use Scripture (which will for the purposes of this debate be viewed as the word of God) or any other evidence (although I may be compelled to disprove the credibility of the aforementioned evidence). I hope we have a good debate (and that I win). Thanks for accepting.
New Yorkers PWN

To refute my opponent's points: 1) "No state is "perfect."" I agree, but some are better than others 2)"New York was where the 9-11 terrorist attacks happened. A terrortist attack could happen anywhere else in the world." Yes the terrorists attacked New York BECAUSE the icon of america, New Yorkers had to endure this terrible tradegy first hand, they made it through, Mayor Juliani said on the day when asked how may dead he said "More than we can endure" 3) "San Francisco is a center of commerce, and NYC is a center of commerce" New York is more of a center of commerce than SF, even since the collapse of the world trade center NY has had more Economic Input. Now onto my points: 1. New Yorkers are taking advantage of public transit. New York and NYC are the only areas in the US where public transit is the main source of transportation. There are buses, subways, metro north railroad, and taxis. Not only does this help the City Economy, this helps the environment. 2. New Yorkers DEFINE city life Have you ever seen a city in the world that is not modeled off NY? SF-yes, LA-yes, Tokyo-Yes, Paris-Somewhat, London-Somewhat, Beijing-Yes, Seattle-Yes, Portland-Somewhat. I will bring up more points in my second constructive speech.
New Yorkers PWN

This is why New Yorkers do not "PWN": By the definition of the Pro side, PWN means "to be better than others." Better than others at what? In what? Our nation is based on ideas, not on ethnicity. The big Civil War between the North and the South over slavery was about ideas and caused anarchy to the nation. Debating this topic shows that the Pro side agrees that New Yorkers are far "better" than all other American Citizens. I will not say that New Yorkers are worse than others, rather equal. What does New York have that is any better that any other state? No state is "perfect." New York gets the ocean, and California gets the sun. Illinois gets Chicago and New York gets New York City. There is no way to measure whether or not a state is superior to another state. This topic is completely broad. New York was where the 9-11 terrorist attacks happened. A terrortist attack could happen anywhere else in the world. San Francisco is a center of commerce, and NYC is a center of commerce. Alaska has a national forest and New York State has monuments. How do you measure the greatness of a citizen through where they live? There is no way to prove that the people of one state is superior over another, and therefore the Con side clearly wins this debate out of logic.
New Yorkers PWN

Refutations to my opponent's refutations. (That sounded awkward.) 1) "You stated that no state is perfect so it seems that you started the arguement on the states." Pro's RESOLUTION started the arguement on the states, but Rockylightning, you started debating on a resolution that had little or nothing to do with your proposal. 2) Being a native of this little town all of my life, I have watched videos of 9-11 and cried, people jumping out of the tower and making calls rofl help that were too late, and I had met people who died, too. But this is not relavent for the debate. Keep in mind that I feel for you. Sorry for your loss. Sure, New York City firefighters pwn; but saving people from a burning bulding isn't quite the "Perfect representation of city life"... There have been cities that have gone through such events. In the great quake in the early 1900's in San Francisco, firefighters helped fight the sparks started by the tremor. I think we can both agree that the United States is a great country alone; we send donations of supplies, donors from ALL STATES, to help those in Chile or Haiti or China wherever we can help. 3) New York has an incredible economy; I will not argue with that. However, may I remind you that we are debating that New Yorkers pwn, not New York? As a tip, following your own proposed resolution will make you more likely too win.... ========================================================================= 1) If you take public transit to work, and you get stuck in some unexpected traffic, you'll be late. Maybe you'll get fired. People still use cars just because it is more convenient than having to stop off first to let other people off before you get off of the bus or whatever form of public transit you are taking. Considering that New York is well known as the city of traffic, sitting in a gas-guzzling bus with maybe, let's say, 5 people, would pollute the air more than 5 faster-moving cars which can weave in and out of traffic more easily. 2) You could say that a person in Chicago or Tokyo or Baltimore defines the common person, too. But what is the definition of the "common person"? 3) You have no proof that cities copied New York City. As I have stated before, there are cultural, economical, and religious differences worldwide. You can't just say that every single big city in the world is like New York. New York City is a successful city, but cities try to copy the success, not neccessarily the daily life of the citizens. ===============================sources=================================== http://www.sfgate.com...

1) You stated that no state is perfect so it seems that you started the argument on the states. 2) Yes, people across the country felt for the people who died, I totally agree, me being native of New York, looked at videos of 911, people jumping out of the tower, fire fighters that I HAD MET had gone into that building right when it collapsed. I had met those people, now their all dead. That's why New Yorkers pwn, they run into a flaming building to save people they don't know, on the same day the infamous act against humanity was executed, such selfless acts like the ones of the firefighters going into that building to save others and die is why New Yorkers PWN, no other City in the US has gone through such an event. 3) The economy of New York City is the largest regional economy in the United States and the second largest city economy in the world after Tokyo. Along with London, New York City is the leading financial center of the world and a premier headquarters location for leading global financial services companies. New York is distinctive for its high concentrations of advanced service sector firms in fields such as law, accountancy, banking and management consultancy. (Sources at the end) ----------------------- 1) It does have to do with New Yorkers because they choose to take public transit, which would be better, a few buses stuck in traffic? or a couple hundred cars stuck in traffic? 2) Ok fine, we Are debating the people, but it is true that most cities are modeled off NY, that's common knowledge, tokyo subway and bridge builders come to NY to learn! I've seen it first hand. ------------To refute my opponent's points 1) "They ARE common people" yes, that is my point, they DEFINE THE COMMON PERSON! that's why they PWN!!! 2) all California residents do the same things that New York City/ New York residents do. What's the difference? New York has a huge city, but there are huge cities other places" As I have said before, New Yorkers define city life, ostly every city in one way or another tries to copy New York life! Look at Boston, Trenon, Portland, San Francisco! All are almost carbon copies of NY (besides from architecture) ==================================Sources==================================== http://www.itweek.co.uk...= http://www.nytimes.com... http://www.nysun.com... http://www.mercer.com...
Ban meat, dairy, and eggs worldwide.

At this point Con has failed to expose the flaws of Pro's round two argument in any way. Pro's substantial round two argument still stands. Pro hypothesizes Con will attempt to expose the weaknesses of Pro's round 2 argument in round 5. Here's an outline of Pro's unchallenged round two argument. Since Con has failed to create any counter argument that relates to the resolution Pro's r5 will be brief. "Outline I. Animal cruelty A. Establishing sentience. B. Suffering exists from egg, meat, and milk production. C. Buying these products causes suffering. D. Not necessary for survival to eat these foods. E. Animal cruelty to eat these foods. II. Health A. Possible to be a healthy vegan. B. Detrimental affects of consuming animal products. III. Environment A. Trophic levels B. Amazon and ocean destruction. " As for Con's round four, Con seems to want Pro to agree to a claim that Con has failed to demonstrate any warrant back to the resolution. Resolution: Meat, dairy, and eggs should be banned on the planet Earth. Modified claim by Con. "Fact (modified for your approval): Domesticated livestock is specifically bred for human consumption. The associated by-products (dairy and eggs) come from said livestock. It only exists and thrives thanks to artificial selection. Artificial selection is the reason why these breeds and their by-products exist, and without continual human intervention, these breeds would cease to exist whether their consumption by humans is legal or not. " Con Agreed, the breeds would cease to exist. Though Pro fails to perceive the relevance of this claim.
Ban meat, dairy, and eggs worldwide.

That was one tasty bacon cheeseburger with extra mayonnaise, but I digress. Round Three was a weak attempt by you to utterly dismiss my ‘curious paragraph’ on the unsubstantiated claim that ‘self-domestication and living organisms are tough in general’ with cherry picked quotes from articles that either had nothing to do with the argument at all, or (within context) flat out contradict your refusal to accept artificial selection as a fact of nature. But I appreciate your integrity for recognizing this and re-focusing on the fact presented to you in Round Two. We only have one discrepancy remaining, and it is the fifth claim you wasted your entire Round 4 on: "Artificial selection is the reason why these species and their by-products exist and without continual human intervention, it would cease to exist whether its consumption by humans is legal or not." You disagreed with this, and you are correct here. This particular claim is fallacious as it conflates breeds with species. Allow me to modify to ensure we are both in complete agreement on all five claims within this ‘curious paragraph’: Fact (modified for your approval): Domesticated livestock is specifically bred for human consumption. The associated by-products (dairy and eggs) come from said livestock. It only exists and thrives thanks to artificial selection. Artificial selection is the reason why these breeds and their by-products exist, and without continual human intervention, these breeds would cease to exist whether their consumption by humans is legal or not. Time to go down the proverbial rabbit hole! I look forward to your closing argument.
