One high quality rap battle

I see my opponent in the distance, his body is in disrepair, It looks like he's got assistance as he's sitting in a wheelchair, I go to shake his hand and wish him good luck, But his broken pituitary gland means he doesn't give a f**k, The cripple stands up with knees quaking, He looks me in the eyes, but his head is shaking, He begins to stutter, his words are clutter, He has left verses unspoken as his anxiety has awoken and now he's standing there, mind broken. As the battle begins, I remember my past wins, So I close my eyes and try to visualise, I see my opponent fall to a quick demise. My heart begins to beat faster, I'm a rapping elite master, Power surging, Skills emerging, BOOM! I'm prepared to consume the room, With my rap that was created in a metaphorical womb, where the words grew and the lyrics kicked, designed to inflict and end the verbal conflict. As the water breaks, the ground shakes, forcing open the hole that gapes. It's not a baby that's born, it's a rap in oral form, refined at birth and ready in top form. As the rap goes on for longer, the lyrics are growing stronger, Creating a dialect that doesn't need translating, the words are correct and permeating, it's perfect and I feel the pace accelerating. It's almost like a holy being, seeing is believing, It's more than just perceiving, A smooth strand starts to weave, It creates a larger depiction that you wouldn't believe, This is your verbal crucifixion and that's all you will achieve. I can't stop the flow, the ground is shaking, It's best to let go cus this is breath-taking. Admit defeat as you submit to the beat, In your trance-like state you begin to dance with a heart rate of two-hundred and thirty, but it's too late, as your pants grow dirty I hear you plea "Don't hurt me." BAM! I've just killed a man with words alone, The thrill of the kill and a new tombstone, He tried his best in this ultimate test, but his body is buried and he's finally at rest. You won't be spitting raps in death, you'll only be hearing the sound of my breath, I admit, I'll spit on your grave, as I poetically transmit my sound wave. Rest in peace my opponent, as your participation was a component, I had to endure you here just to lure you here to receive your artificial insemination, You were my host to conceive the initial fertilization, You gave your life for this creation. Now the metaphorical womb will bloom a new, as another baby rap is spawned from you.

Patriotism is the best quality one can have.

We have more freedom, more rights, and a better quality of life than anywhere else in the world. We are protected from attacks and we can choose our own destiny. Americanism and patriotism are bedrocks in our society. There is a growing trend right now that to teach kids to be patriotic is to teach rebellion. We are scared to death of the rest of the world and we don;t even want to stand up for ourselves now. Non patriotism is essentionally the same as treason. You have a right to disagree with the country, but to constantly bash it and still live here? No thanks, please move away.
Patriotism is the best quality one can have.

What you said is very true they can't please everyone and i understand that, i mean life is compromise but if someone wants to openly say something about there government then they should be aloud to without censoring, if someone wants to say something about another person they should be aloud to. It's personal opinion, it's not really hurting anyone. And with the election you don't find that funny at all?! that bush had family that was in office in Florida?! and America was told gore had it then all of a sudden bush had it? Maybe thats just my skepticism but whatever. How do you consider marriage and sex an art, im not really sure i really follow you on that. And then back to the main topic, technically patriotism IS already taught in schools, you have history which talks about all the wars and support the country gave it's leaders, you have the pledge of allegiance a moment of silence, the flag, recruiters ( i mean we have at least 3-4 different recruiters a WEEK at my school). My school even raised a lot of money and built a huge memorial to vets in my town and vets that attended our school. On tv you have those army and navy and air force commercials talking about serving you're country? I personally think thats enough, i don't think we need to add another thing to our schools to push support for our leaders, our government, our county.
Patriotism is the best quality one can have.

I would like America to be what it was once promised to be, it all sounds really good until you realize the lies, the killing, censoring?! If we have freedom of speech and stuff why do we censor certain things because people are offended or because somehow it's morally wrong?! I mean we have leaders cheating there way into office's? People who are letting money get in the way of whats right?! taking other countries "under our wing" (taking out leaders and trying to put a new system of gov. in). I mean our leaders are so concerned with themselves and what they think is right they aren't even taking care of there OWN PEOPLE. When hurricane Katrina hit it took us like 4-5 days to get water to the super dome, we spent so much money on trailers for those people and then found out the landscape couldn't support them so we ended up giving them to the Indian reservations thinking we were doing good and the Indians started to get sick because they were so cheaply made and the finish on the wood was making them sick. THATS RIDICULOUS. I understand that mistakes are all right but how can you say you're actually happy with the way America is being ran?! now for the second question i don't think it's something to be taught because i don't think it's necessary, it's around us everyday all ready. plus a lot of times when you teach little kids certain things they just accept it as it and they are content with it. I just think it's not something thats needs to be pushed. If you take pride in you're country GREAT but if you don't that doesn't mean that you need to get out?! And i think it's the constitution that lets me disagree in the first place
Patriotism is the best quality one can have.

Yet why shouldn't it be taught in school? American history is a history of patriotism. Greed and love of money are prevelant everywhere and always have been. One cannot just sit by and claim the worst if they are not willing to strive for the ideal. America is the hope of the world. So questions 1. What would you like America to become? 2. Why should patriotism not be taught? 3. Isn't it patriotism the reason you can disagree in the first place?
Patriotism is the best quality one can have.

I'm not supporting "bashing" in any way, I simply just disagree with teaching patriotism in schools. I don't think that's something we need to push on students. At times i agree it is very important to be behind our government and don't get me wrong i love the idea of what american is supposed to be but once you add greed money and other inadequate traits you don't get that idea anymore.
scientific fact=belief

You thoroughly remind me of the Emperor of the universe from h2g2, a man that could not trust anything, not even his own memories. I am unsure on what grounds we should argue now, scientific or philosophical. From a scientific point of view, every event is real regardless of external observers (except for quantum superposition's, which when observed possess normal position), if events did not happen without external observers, how, exactly, would supernovae occur? If we are arguing in terms of philosophy, then what you are saying may be exactly the truth, I however believe it not to be the truth as the evidence does not point this way. Yes, we could all argue that "I am the only one who is sentient" but we do not behave like this in real life, we still treat others as equals, despite the fact that they may not the same level of being as "me". We know ourselves that we are sentient, we observe the world through our senses and process the thoughts in our brains. With advanced enough technology, we could, in fact, take someone's brain and "read" their memories, the technology side is not doable currently, we are just biological machines. There is no more reason to suppose that the next person is lying as you are. Your argument about robots is of great debate in itself, whether or not robots may ever gain sentience. You assume that a robot is different to a human, whereas a robot processes in silicon, we process in biological compounds. We have so many of these that the illusion of self is created. The one thing science can not explain is out feeling of "here", why do we observe the universe? If you are arguing that you can trust something if you have experienced it, why do you argue that you can not trust somebody else telling you about the event? Your experiences could be fabricated. Read that sentence, reply to that sentence in particular. Conversely you may be the bot, I do not believe so, you do not seem to argue in the way a bot would, again a large web of lies would be required. No stone dropped on my head. I would like to continue this debate, please post in the comments whether you accept or not.
scientific fact=belief

religion is a position on an imaginary claim belief=be lie, as i dont know is true unknown=imaginary ghosts are religion if i believe in them my point is, i havnt taken any drugs.. its not a fact in order to disprove existence you would have to exist, so disproving existence is impossible lies exist if we cut open a head, and take out the brain, we cant take the information, mind out on the floor, so they are not things, they are nothing pick up 0 sodas from the floor, you cant do that but you can understand that you cant even thou 0 sodas can never exist in reality beliefs are not necessary, religion is not necessary robots have no choice at all, they dont have a know mode, a self, they are programmed based on what the programmer set it to, unable to learn from its mistakes, no intelligence, like a Wheel turning in the Wind memories can not be put into my head, data is physical i dont know prove to me you are not a bot trying to make me think you are human if the moon is made of cheese a tiny stone will drop on your head as you read this last Word, OMG did i just make that come true? i am sorry :( there is no true or honest point to make beyond personal experience
scientific fact=belief

trust is belief, belief is theism, religion what is the difference to what santa is and the drugs i just took? information dosnt exist in reality, information is 0 percent of the light on my personal physical experience data is not information, not mental robots cant have a religion, they do as they are programmed, they are actually the definition of what a believer is, like a being that by default only Works by belief, being the input of the creator i know the light on my tv screen and the sounds, but esentially it is no different then looking into the head of another person, wathcing stories inside know=physical experience is it impossible that china blew up 10 minutes ago and so saying you know china is real is false? hm, ok my position is that, facts dosnt exist beyond my memory, fact is memory and i dont see your memories, but i can believe your story if=false knowledge=memory=truth=past
scientific fact=belief

It seems you are arguing two things here, your viewpoint and the interaction of systems. Firstly your viewpoint that you can not trust anything you are told. This involves the very nature of your consciousness, you have tied to your consciousness you senses, from your viewpoint these can provide you with a definite set of events that have happened to you, you are excluding other inputs believing that any of them may be fictitious. This is logical, however would slow down your life, it is good to check whether something is true or not, but not everything is a lie. Secondly, we know that systems interact, that is matter can transfer information to other matter, be it humans, robots or gravitational attraction between mass. The systems interact, if a robot has been programmed to convey, for example, temperature data through a radio signal to another robot, the robot is not going to lie. Therefore the second robot may use this information taken as true. It is true, you can only believe what others have told you, I have never been to China, yet I "know" China exists, I have seen the news reports, the news reports have been organised in BBC buildings, the BBC have made other programs, these programs have taken place within places, places which people I know have been. For China to be a lie, it would take a vast web of lies, from my experience I know it would not be plausible to set up a web of lies on this scale. The BBC is just one route in knowing about China, it would require all of the other resources that I have utilised to be fictitious as well to complete the lie, therefore I know that China exists. We can argue, neither of us can be proved correct, based on the very premise of this argument, if everything is fictitious then this debate is not real, if everything is real I the debate is happening and I believe that my viewpoint would be more valid, thus by this logic, the only sensible side to take is that information is true. This is an excellent debate.
scientific fact=belief

not having evidence is not having evidence, does that mean god is false? or aliens, in your neighbours house last night? facts are past observations, but i dont have an honest story to tell of where you were last night, but i can believe your stor science works with logic, but i can at best believe what others tell me, unless i have to imagine it religion=to rely on, while self is one belief=Be lie, as i dont know is true i dont know=i have to imagine it, i can at best imagine it know=Physical experience
scientific fact=belief

Is your argument that absence of evidence is not necessarily evidence of absence? If your argument is that all facts are merely belief then you also argue that the entire universe is speculative, and that nothing whatsoever may be proved. Indeed, it is far more difficult to disprove something than prove something, however once a scientific method has been carried out, speculative arguments must be used. Take the example if the ghosts, the scientist argues: "A supernatural entity may not exist as it does no conform with the laws of physics or reason" The onlooker argues: "But what if a new type of radiation exists?" The radiation is not present in our science, however theory and experiments point towards a new type of radiation not existing, or more specifically, the scientist may argue: "Why would the radiation manifest in exactly the correct form to assume a shape that is believed by humans to be supernatural? (The Ghost)" While we can not rule out anything completely, we can determine whether the occurrence fits within the known laws of the universe.
scientific fact=belief

From what I managed to follow of your convoluted grammar, I believe you are arguing that scientific fact is a cause for belief. Am I correct? If so I am willing to argue otherwise, as it is obvious this is not the case. I will initiate with a non-religious example. Scientific evidence has lead to the scientific fact that no mysterious "supernatural" force can lead to the apparition of beings, for example ghosts. Scientific researchers have studied supposedly "haunted" areas to prove that there is no presence in the building, no ghosts or "un-dead", merely people's association with supernatural within the building. There have been reports of low frequency electromagnetic waves within the vicinity, however their effect upon humans has been disputed, nevertheless by no means do these waves have to be of other-worldly origin. To conclude, people believe in ghosts, despite the scientific fact that no such entity can exist, therefore scientific fact does not equal belief. I am unsure whether I have understood correctly, your sentence structure is difficult to follow. If I at any point forfeit a round it is not intentional, it will most probably be due to absence.
kids allowance

So the central point of my opponents argument is his own opinion that kids should have allowance. He has not addressed my points or brought up any points himself. His account was made less than an hour ago from me typing this so I imagine he might be doing this for fun. But I want to take this time to talk some more. What will children do with this allowance assuming we spent all the money to get all kids one? If they are rich or middle-class, the money would be used for food or expensive toys such as video games. For the poorer, it might be a catalyst for drug use as this allowance did not change their situation and the drugs will be an outlet. The money will be wasted on toys and food, stimulating the wrong parts of the economy. This money could be used for healthcare, education, or infrastructure. But my opponent would rather have it be wasted. It is a shame this could not be a serious debate.
kids allowance

When we use the word "should" we imply that it must be done for all kids. The resolution does not specify which kids or how much. I take my position because the if we do this for all kids, that means those in 3rd world countries. There are millions of kids that don't get allowance. How are we to rectify that? I guess America can spend more of it's money it already doesn't have to give all kids a living wage for their allowance. That is simply not possible. We could mandate that parent give allowance but some parent are struggling to pay the bills as is. Way force them to give money to their kids who will just waste it? I hope you bring something else to the table next round.
Should Death Penalty be abolished

The topic of our debate is the death penalty. We believe that the death penalty should be abolished. The United States spreads a message telling others that killing someone is wrong. Then, they go and allow offical people to be hypocritical and kill someone for a crime committed. Gandhi said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind." This is an inhumane way to treat other humans. Even though they made an incredibly bad choice by committing a capital offense, they are still human and we must treat them as one. A Florida study found that states could cut costs by $51 million simply by eliminating the death penalty. A study by Columbia University Law School found that two thirds of all capital trials contained serious errors. When the cases were retried, over 80% of the defendants were not sentenced to death and 7% were completely acquitted. Not only is it expensive, but it also has had many errors. Given the facts above, we believe that the death penalty should be abolished and we plan to prove it.
Death Penalty should be allowed

First I would like to apologies for forfeiting one of the rounds. It was out of my hands. So let me start. Let us first picture a world without death penalty. Well, I see crime rates as high as ever, murders increasing everyday and innocent people not getting their rights back. Chaos roams the streets and people committing crimes to get money and in their heads they know that the worst that can happen to them is prison. For some prison might even be a relief compared to their living standards. So abolishing death penalty only encourages people to break the law and murder more innocent people. More gangs would form and assassinations increase because of the lower punishment received. Right now, some countries that have death penalty are very fragile. The only line between chaos and peace is death penalty. Some might say the cost of killing a criminal is not worth it. Well let me tell you one thing, is the cost of safety not worth it? Would you rather have a peaceful community and pay some extra taxes or would you rather pay less tax and live in a dangerous environment. One of the issues of death penalty is making a mistake in the trails. No system of justice can produce results which are 100% certain all the time. Mistakes will be made in any system which relies upon human testimony for proof. We should be vigilant to uncover and avoid such mistakes. Our system of justice rightfully demands a higher standard for death penalty cases. However, the risk of making a mistake with the extraordinary due process applied in death penalty cases is very small, and there is no credible evidence to show that any innocent persons have been executed at least since the death penalty was reactivated in 1976. Therefore I believe that all the points provided by my opponent are weak and are not strong enough to outweigh the advantages to death penalty.
Death Penalty should be allowed

How unfortunate, my opponent has forfeited. Well, I might as well make an argument anyway.1. CostsThe Death Penalty is more expensive than life in prison. Therefore, we should not use it.2. Innocent PeopleIf you throw an innocent person in jail, you can yank them out again if you can show their innocence. You can't bring back someone from the dead.While these arguments are poor of quality, they are still more than what my opponent provided.Sources:1. http://en.wikipedia.org...
