Macs are all-around better than Windows computers.

http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu... ~~~~~~~ Rebuttals ~~~~~~~ ///Point 1/// Start up time is affected very little by the operating system (OS), it is determined by the quality of the parts inside of a computer and the programs that said computer runs at start up. The difference between the two is that you can increase your Windows OS computer's start up time by over-clocking, changing the settings for increased output, upgrading parts, and various other means. You can not legally over-clock a Macintosh OS (Mac) computer or upgrade it's parts on your own. ~ ///Point 2/// You say that Macs use better quality parts without providing evidence. You also say that Macs are made to work so there is less hassle. Convenience =/= quality. For instance, it is more convenient for me to spend five dollars on a meal from McDonald's than it would be to cook my own healthy meal. This does not make the McDonald's meal better. ~ ///Point 3/// Again, convenience =/= quality, there are many open-source programs available for free on the Internet that do most everything that those programs can do, there are even Windows equivalent programs such as: *Wordpad, which is similar to stickies; *[2], is a list of free Windows photo editors *Windows Calendar is a Microsoft calendar program that actually supports iCal file types. *CrashPlan is a free online service that backs up documents similar to Time Machine [3]. *iTunes can be used on the Windows OS for free *Windows Movie Maker comes free with all copies of a Windows OS, this is similar to iMovie *Microsoft Works comes free with all Windows OS, this is equivalent to your Keynote, word processor, ect. .. All of the listed programs are either free if you own a Microsoft OS or just entirely free. ~ ///Point 4/// I would like my opponent to clarify what he means by 'dumb ads that keep popping up. ' My Windows OS does not advertise anything to me. ~ ~~~~~~~ Argument ~~~~~~~ Point 1: As the owner of a computer with a Microsoft OS you are able to customize said computer however you want, this includes changing basic settings and upgrading parts for a better computing experience. With a MAC you are not allowed to do this because Apple does not actually sell software and hardware. They sell the rights to use software and hardware in ways that they deem fit [4]. Point 2: When you compare the two OSs there is significantly less software available for a Mac OS than a Microsoft OS. This is especially true when you consider computer gaming. More choices means that you can choose between many similar programs to suit your individual needs. ~ I look forward to my opponent's response. [1] . http://en.wikipedia.org...

Macs are all-around better than Windows computers.

There are numerous reasons that I can say that Macintosh computers are better than Windows computers. 1. I know someone who owns a Windows computer that runs Windows XP. It takes around five to seven minutes to restart, whereas with my Mac, it only takes around thirty seconds (please note that like my example of a Windows, my Mac is not the latest version of the brand). 2. Apple uses good, quality parts and operating systems that they make themselves. Windows makes the operating system, but another company such as Sony, Dell, or HP makes the computer. With Mac computers, the actual computer and operating system were "made for each other" so everything just works. This way, there's no "What do you mean you only sell computers?" on the phone call to customer service. 3. Macs have many more useful applications for it right out of the box. These applications include Stickies (which you can leave notes for yourself with), iPhoto (which is a great way to view photos or adjust them), iCal (which allows you to carefully plan out your week, month, year, or more), Time Machine (which backs up your Mac in an easy-to-understand way), and iTunes (the top music purchasing utility in the modern world). Now, since iLife comes with Macs, you can have iMovie, Pages, Keynote (slideshow making utility), Garage Band, and iWeb. You don't get this with a Windows computer. 4. Macs aren't loaded up with dumb ads that keep popping up whenever you're trying to work, as Windows computers are. For example, my friend's PC always thrusts things into your face advertising useless apps and games and things like that. I can't believe Windows users don't switch to Macs. There are too many good reasons that Macs are better.
Oneness of God vs. Trinity of God

IntroductionPro's last post was extremely bizarre. None of the verses he posted actually undermine the Trinity, and a couple of them actually support the Trinity!Rebutting My Opponent"Comment: What name is this verse referring to? Jesus was speaking of himself."No. Jesus was clearly speaking about the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. This is the Trinity. Pro's whole case has already been rendered obsolete. "Comment: In verse 12, Peter spoke of Jesus Christ as the ONLY NAME under Heaven which we MUST be saved."The above does nothing to undermine the Trinity. Jesus is one name, but he is still one part of the Trinity. Thus, this is just a red herring. "Comment: Apparently, Peter understood that the only way to receive salvation was being baptized in the name of Jesus and receiving the Holy Ghost evidenced by speaking in other tongues.This actually supports the Trinity. Therefore, if my opponent is arguing against the Trinity, this is once more nothing more than a red herring. This does literally nothing to undermine the Trinity. "I have a name (for this debate I will use "Pro" as my name). My name is Pro. I am a father, I am a son, I am a driver, I am a citizen, I am all kinds of things. Those are different titles that I hold, but my NAME is Pro."This makes no sense. How can it be coherent for one person have a title of the father and the son in context? This clearly indicates different persons. Which means, the Trinity is strongly suggested in The Bible. Pro still has not provided any valid reasoning to counter mine. "Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, is One Lord."Yes, one Lord that is made up of three parts: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. This Bible verse does not undermine the Trinity,There are some more Bible verses by Pro, but they have no relevance to the debate. These verses need to be tied together into a coherent case before we can accept the resolution. Conclusion Pro's lengthy round was rather trivial. None of the verses that he posted undermined the Trinity (also, the verse I posted which says Jesus and his Father were "one" was not contested, thus it stands). The verses I posted actually do support the Trinity. Since the verses posted by Pro do not undermine the Trinity, and the verses I provided support the Trinity; it should be self-evident that the resolution has been negated. One cannot just post a bunch of irrelevant verses with no supporting reasoning, and except to affirm this resolution.
Oneness of God vs. Trinity of God

Negation Of The ResolutionPro is very keen on asserting that the trinity has no Biblical basis. However, The Bible teaches of the trinity, making my opponents claims unjustified. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" - Matthew 28:19 Comment: The above is self-evidently strong evidence in favor of the Trinity. Thus, it is strong evidence against Pro's case. "I and [my] Father are one. " - John 10:30 Comment: Jesus even claims that him and his father are one. This means, they are each separate parts of the set called "God". "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my (Jesus, the Son) name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. " - John 14:26Comment: The above is self-evidently strong evidence in favor of the Trinity. Thus, it is strong evidence against Pro's case. ConclusionI have provided three strong lines of Biblical support in favor of the Trinity. Pro has provided essentially nothing. Thus, as it stands, the resolution has been negated.
Oneness of God vs. Trinity of God

There is no such thing as the Trinity. The "Holy Trinity" is NOT biblical and was NEVER taught ANYWHERE in the Bible. It is a false doctrine that should not be taught to any person that calls themselves a Christian. The bible, from cover to cover, always spoke of God as ONE being, never as three separate entities that modern day Christians believe in. The Trinity I am referring to, in case one does not know what I am talking about, is the idea that God is three separate, co-equal, and co-existent beings commonly know as the father, son, and Holy Ghost.

Each day of the valid Christian Creation must have been a literal 24 hour period.

The genesis story claims creation took place with each phase of creation taking a day "requiring an evening and a morning" [1]. Death was not known in creation until the original sin of Adam. Life was perfect until Adam disobeyed God. [2] [3] All men die because of Adam and his original sin. Jesus was to take away the curse of death due to the original sin. [4] If God's created over millions of years, or even thousands of years there would have been disease and death before the original sin. The death and disease with life operaterating under a natural system as it does now. The Bible does not mention any special rules of life before the fall of mankind. Since death is part of the curse for the original sin, the sacrifice of Jesus would have been for nothing. It is very important physical death originated with the original sin and was not part of the natural created order. Otherwise the creation story is not valid since this would undermine the Gospels. Also, if there were death before the original sin, it would have repercussions for the believer's resurrection. since death is "freedom from bondage of corruption". If the corruption existed before Adam sinned then what does Heaven hold? Heaven should be as creation was before the fall. [5] If creation was corrupted pre-Adam, there is little hope for heaven. Therefore, creation must have occurred over days, instead of eons of times. Since this is my first debate, I hope you will be kind! I look forward to your response.

Each day of the valid Christian Creation must have been a literal 24 hour period.

You will argue why a valid Christian Creation could have taken place over eons of time and I must show how a valid Christian Creation could not have taken longer than a literal week as stated in Genesis. I am new to the site and the debate format, so feel free to point out any errors in protocol. Also, I am not religious, but I do intend to defend my point of view tenaciously. This is my first debate so take it easy on me, I'm a noob! :) No offensive language, personal attacks, or unsupported claims. Here we go!! Let's have some fun! ..and good luck!
Should schools get rid of non-core classes? (Such as a foreign language, music etc.)

BRUUUUUUHHHHHHH!!!!!!! BOOOOIIII!!!! Plzzzzz spell and use grammar correctly. And you are reeehheeeheeee eeellly wrong about you taking a survey. Your class is only a sample over a population. Some schools have millions of kids. And my kids really love their extra quarter classes.
Should schools get rid of non-core classes? (Such as a foreign language, music etc.)

I think schools should get rid of non-core subjects. What study shows that reading sheets of music helps the brain process your surroundings. Non-core subjects isn't the classes you can be creative with, you can be creative with all classes. I took a survey in my class and the results were that everybody hated foreign languages, only 1 liked art and 2 for music. So the super majority didn't like non-core subjects. My uncle is a doctor and his school didn't have non-core subjects so that proves you can have a good job without non-core classes.
Video Games Are Not Bad For You

A report in Journal of Adolescence [1] directly linked childhood obesity and low exercise levels to video games. In kids, ages 1 to 12, "results indicated that while television use was not related to children's weight status, video game use was." According to an article in the Journal of Neurology, Neuropsychology, and Psychiatry [2], 29 percent of patients with epilepsy suffered video-game-induced seizures. According to Pediatrics International [3], kids who played video games were much more prone to develop black rings under the eyes and suffer from a displacement of the shoulder blade. Based on recent studies, published in Pediatrics [4], found that kids who had two hours or more of screen time per day were twice as likely to have difficulty paying attention. So, yes, video games are not just bad for you, but dangerous for your well-being. 1.) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov... 2.) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov... 3.) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov... 4.) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
