Poem Debate

Love for your neighbor is like a fresh cut rose, It won't last long unless it's enclosed, Embraced is better word for it, I know you won't embrace, so I do what I see fit. So I'l keep up the assault, You know your at fault, For starting with "Like wall plaster" Making me feel like less a master. I feel like throwing punches, A little rambunctious, After a bite and some munches, At some delicious lunches.... Ok now I'm ready, Let's keep this up steady, I'll throw you out of the ring, Then you'll see the bling. A flower, Has more power, But you are kinda sour, So I'll give you an hour. Before you get KO'd, Return to you abode, For worthy you are not, You amount to snot. You tell me to stop, I heard this last round, But then you go over the top, Try to make a big sound, Then you tell me keep it up, After acting like a pup, Tiny and afraid, Is this a mistake that you made? So okay I did return, There's some things you need to learn, Point's for me to earn, but first I should discern, What exactly are you saying? With spell like a bear? I think word you are just sprayin, With hardly any care. Canadian yes I'm sorry...jk Because what I say is truth ,eh? Spam I know nothing about, Politeness I can't be without. But I say what I say, Know what I know, Pay what I pay, Go where I go. I believe Irish spring brought your last topic, But like I always say and you cannot stop it, I'm the one to get her, I said this already, I'm the Irish setter... https://www.pinterest.com... Your like bad spaghetti. http://www.collegehumor.com... In conclusion, is what I usually say, Cause I know this is where more attention will pay, I would stop the insults but you said you want more, Let's see what you say in the following round four.
Poem Debate

Honor, have you heard of the word? It why I don't like to surrender. From challenge, I don't fly away like a bird. Of this crime, you are not a first offender. You are becoming nonsensical In debates, it's not ethical. Your sanity, I'm skeptical. Your food contains what chemicals? Wow, now you're getting dirty. What's next? You'll give me the birdie? You raised the rating to PG-13 Close your mouth now before it's NC-17. My problem is that you're not clever The insults are just spewed out. It's as if you have a insult lever. Insults, insults, that's all you ever shout. I don't own anything? Sounds like a hippie. Do you go "Peace out, homies?" In Mississippi? Your bling I eagerly wait to see 'Cause I think it's about as true as what you said about me! Tell, Officer, where did I err? It's you, in fact, who spells like a bear. Snakes are sly, so I now a trick or two. What' that behind you? Liar, liar, pants on fire. Canadians can't be so impolite. No spam in the fridge is what they consider dire. They can't be a fighting knight. Enough of this Irish claim Have you even stepped on Irish dirt grain? I've been there, driven down their lane You for their legacy is one big stain. You need Soap in the mouth to make it clean. You have to stop talking about the spleen. No more 'If you know what I mean Listen to what I said, don't be a drama queen. Remember, make your insults keen.
Poem Debate

Well what do you know? Replied did my foe, A mistake he made so, To come back at me bro. Hello it is I, The monster inside, Everybody's dreams, And delicious ice-creams, I never go down, Unless it's downtown, Where your mother does lay, where I make her my bae. Yes insult you I do, What I say it is true, You do it too, Don't say you never knew. It's hard to remember a time when I actually failed, Except to save Jesus from the cross when he was nailed, Or the time when I should have shot that bloody assassin, When at JFK a bullet went blastin, No I can't say that I never did fail, But when it comes to rhyming I always prevail. You will eventually be seeing my bling, Just remember you don't really own anything. Yes a snake is what you are, And in actuality, May isn't too far, You really should now learn to spell, Because your grammar is now down in hel. No actually my education is in Canada, The land of the free for my ma and my pa, A child of the warriors is who I am, All that you know is how to cook Spam. If your word choice made sense, It would help a whole bunch, I mean some offense, They are just "out to lunch". My skills are all better, I told you already, I'm the Irish Setter, Your like bad spaghetti. If anyone needs some schooling it is you, You don't even know which side of a cow goes "moo!" You think it's the back This makes sense to me, Because out of 'your' mouth only comes crap and pee. Yes polite is very easy, Too easy for me, I'd rather tell the truth, I don't try to sooth. Like, "blow your nose somewhere away!" "Don't touch your food before we pray!" "Elbows off the table right now!" Chew with your mouth closed, don't eat like a cow!" Done we are far from it, I have done more, You've done jack,,, That's from what your mouth does pour. Study ya right, You can if you's like, For your in a plight, Like sand to a bike. Yes I am a pro, Thank you a lot, There's something you know, Unlike this plot. SO in conclusion, To my turn in this round, Cons reply is an illusion, I'll knock it to the ground.
Poem Debate

Well, to start, I'm sorry, about my mistake But you also made one, assuming you're so great. Insulting me right and left, even in the middle. It's like I'm Sleeping Beauty, and you're stabbing me with your spindle. I guess it a good thing, Because your failing really stings You claimed to be the king But I don't see any bling. So, I'm a snake, you say? Well I'll bite you till May. My poisons words will be in your veins My choice of words are your bane. Old education, it must've seen from the South 'Cause I didn't realize back then, they such a dirty mouth. They made their remarks: intelligent, keen, witty But your jokes are nothing but corny. Now you've been a bad boy, So come here to learn your lesson. You need to learn to be coy For your skills have been lessen. Time for some for schooling, Because no one you're fooling You need to know right from wrong Sadly, this will long. Being polite is so easy that teaching them is cheesy. Like cover your mouth when your sneezy Go to the toilet when your queasy. Say please and thank you, don't be lazy. If you are it'll drive crazy. The choice is clear not hazy Not like your rhyme, which are mazey. We're done for today Keep your homework at bay Study before down you lay This is good advice, I say. Now I hand the debate mike back to Pro What he'll rhyme, only he knows.
Poem Debate

But I will let this slide, For you I can see inside, Like a snake you are a liar, Your rhymes don't light the fire. I wish that you really knew, Wish that you could see, But thoughts you have so few, You don't hold a candle to me. I Know I'm very old school, You seem to be the fool, Tripping on rocks and stool, While coming from your mouth is drool. Please don't take this as the whole truth, I know not from this world everything, Know that I am just still in my youth, But still some truth I still do bring. If you notice I have a rhyme scheme, It shoots through the dark like a beam, If you try to copy I'll know, You are not worthy to be called my foe. You think you know better, So you dare challenged me, the best, I'm dashing as an Irish Setter, You are just a little pest. Let's see if you can beat this friend, Oh wait you dislike when I send, Friend requests without good reason, I won't honor that, it's treason. You really made a mistake, The image you made is fake, Be careful with the choices you make, In my fire I'll see that you bake.
Political Correctness is Hurting American Society

These days it seems like everyone is offended by one thing or anotherI believe the OP to be overstating his case here.Of course there are going to be things that people are going to be offended at hearing. To think that the optimal world is that no-one gets offended by anything is a little far-fetched. The counter-factual makes no sense. So the OP defeats itself in its very first sentence.It seems as if whenever people don't agree with what someone is saying, they want to ban it outright. No-one is banning free speech here. Everyone is allowed to be racist as much as they want but at the same time they should also respect those who speak vehemently against them. Again, the OP is exaggerating what is happening: that certain opinions are going to attract a lot of opposing views. To equate other people also exercising their right to free speech as 'banning outright' is failing to recognize what is happening. Again, the OP defeats itself by not accurately describing the real world. but taking away one's right of free speech is MUCH more dangerous.For the OP to continue to have a case it must demonstrate where anyone's right to free speech is being taken away. If it cannot, then it must be withdrawn as being unsupported.
Political Correctness is Hurting American Society

These days it seems like everyone is offended by one thing or another. While no one is denying the unfortunate ubiquity of racism and bigotry, our society is becoming increasingly hyper-sensitive to anything that could be perceived as mildly offensive . It seems as if whenever people don't agree with what someone is saying, they want to ban it outright. If we are quick to stifle those with dissenting and even unpopular opinions, our society will suffer. People are becoming afraid to voice their opinions for fear of reprisal, and that is the last thing we need. Let me be clear, I am adamantly against purposely insensitive sentiments, but taking away one's right of free speech is MUCH more dangerous.
Child workers should not make our cloths.

That's right, I was attacking your spelling, you half-wit. And no, we can't call this a debate. I've obviously won already. WE NEED CLOTHES! Don't you see, it doesn't matter where they come from, just as long as we get them. We are the superior beings! They are scum. It's that simple. And to your sad, pathetically thought out comment about every human being treated equally, this is simple idiotic. We have money, they don't. We have good food, they don't. We have prostitutes to hire, they don't. We have the wits to create a functioning and sufficient society. We obviously aren't living the same as them, so clearly we are better than they are. So we are not equal. GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD! And I am a child. 11 Years old to be exact. It's sad that someone my age can so easily beat you in an argument, fool. Now, over to you buddy boy. Ta-da!
Child workers should not make our cloths.

When I commented on your mistake, I was not attacking you on your spelling (as you were me), but merely pointing out your hypocrisy. Well, on to the debate, which we can call a debate. When you say that the children DESERVE to be making our clothes, or that it is their place to do so, I am going to say that every human should be treated equally, because every human is equally human. If you were in a country that had child labour, and you were a child, I'm sure that you would not feel the same as you do right now. Also, how can you say that the owners of these factories killing children is a TRIVALTY?
Child workers should not make our cloths.

Please, one mistake? I was too busy reading your tripe that I accidentally missed a couple of letters. Anyhow, the debate, if you could even call it that. I didn't say they are lower than scum, I said they are 'low living scum', however, either description would most probably suffice. And this is relevant, because it's their place to work for us, and put clothes on our back. We need to stay healthy, and they can give us that. And to your comment about being killed, yes, well, trivialities really. Children or not, we get clothes. Just forget about where they came from. Over to you, buddy boy. Ta-da!
Child workers should not make our cloths.

As for you saying that the children who work in factories are punished in preparation for later in life, many of them are killed before they have a chance to get to "later life". Also, when you say that they are lower than scum, that is irrelevant to this topic. The resolution is that children should not be making our cloths, and them needing to accept that they are lower than scum does not affect that in any way. Thank you.
Child workers should not make our cloths.

'The do not want to?' Is this a joke? Check your spelling before you submit, you imbecile. Okay, now down to the debate. Firstly, children should work, and be punished, they need to be taught and disciplined. Prepared for real life. They need to be more than mere mouths to feed. Anyway, we are above whatever they are. They live in the dirt! We are healthy, and they need to accept that they are low living scum. Big companies could save a lot of money from not investing in this simply pathetic activities, and they should be saving money for our countries as a whole. Boosting our economy means giving them money in the long term, and eventually they will be living in better conditions. Finally, please attempt to spell correctly, fool. Over to you, buddy boy. Ta-da!
Child workers should not make our cloths.

Since I am pro, I will describe the resolution. Child workers are children who are paid to make our cloths. The child workers are making the cloths that are sold in your everyday store. I believe that child workers should not be making our cloths. Points: It's wrong. No child should be forced to do anything the do not want to. It is in the Charter of children's rights and freedoms. Also, most big companies make better quality cloths than a child could make, andthe sell them for the same price. This is why children should not be making our cloths.
Evolution theory is true

As it seems, Con has forfeited round 3, due to troubles with the site. Therefore, I ask for potential voters to ignore this as it seemed to be out of Con's control. Nonetheless, as Con failed to give counter rebuttals for my previous rebuttals, I shall likewise forfeit this round to keep it fair. Due to these difficulties, round 4 will be restructured to only have the conclusions, no rebuttals from Pro or Con.
Evolution theory is true

Resolution: Evolution theory is true Pro: Evolution theory is true Con: Evolution theory is false Definitions Evolution theory: "change in the heritable traits of biological populations over successive generations. Evolutionary processes give rise to diversity at every level of biological organisation, including the levels of species, individual organisms, and molecules." Scientific theory/Theory: "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can incorporate facts, laws, inferences, and tested hypotheses." True/truth: "In accordance with fact or reality" False: "Not in accordance with face or reality" Rules: 1. No use of the bible as evidence 2. No Kritiks (changing debate to something related yet off-topic) 3. No trolling 4. Comprehensible and to-the-point arguments. 5. Burden of proof is shared. 6. Pro and Con will assume the earth is 4.5 billion years old for this debate, so everything does get convoluted and off-topic. Debate structure: Round 1: Acceptance Round 2: Opening arguments Round 3: Counter rebuttal and new arguments Round 4: Counter rebuttals and conclusion* *Conclusion is basically a brief summary of the debate. That's it. I hope this will be a good formal debate.
After/assuming this debate concludes, the contender ought to go on a date with Logical-Master

I would just like to ask my opponent not to use the argument that meeting people online is unfair. It should mainly be about how we would be in a relationship. First off, I am single :) We would make a good couple because we both enjoy debates and philosophical discussion. We largely agree, with 72% of our issues being the same. Our disagreances aren't on major issues and we would get along well. We also both students and could help each other through school. Also, why shouldn't we try? It's always good to try on any relationship, just one date to see if we would be interested in each other.
After/assuming this debate concludes, the contender ought to go on a date with Logical-Master

CLARIFICATION ON THE PARAMETERS OF THIS DEBATE: 1) I didn't have enough space to word the resolution properly so basically, my intent is to argue specifically on my opponent. In other words, I shall analyze my opponent and then provide reasons as to why the two of us should not go on a date. When the contender accepts the debate, the resolution should be understood as "After/If this debate concludes, "[insert Contender's name]" ought to go out on a date with Logical-Master." Thus, I will not start the debate until the second round. My opponent is free to provide arguments upon accepting this round (or can wait until R2). 2) I would suggest that my opponent only accept if a female. As a male, my opponent would have to prove that I was gay and quite frankly, I feel that this would not only be against my intentions of this debate, but would also be rather difficult to prove (especially online). 3) No going against the intent of the debate as well as providing ridiculous semantics. For you semantic lovers, I have created a debate specifically for youin the past and am willing to create one again if your semanticating urges overcome you. And no kritiks either. They are smelly. If there are any questions, feel free to provide them in the comment section.
Earth is spherical/spheroid shaped

As much as I can agree ISS is not really 250-400 miles up, it's still high enough to see earth's curvature but NASA has sent probes to space taking pictures of earth but they all must be faked, right? And trust me, we have been to the moon and seen a ball shaped earth http://m.huffpost.com... And back to topic My opponent says that fisheye lens are the leading cause for seeing the curvature, this image proves otherwise. http://stupidconspiracies.org... Despite not using fisheye lens, we still see a nicely curved planet. Although a lot of images are fake, not all are. Comparing NASA to movies is not the best idea. Since the sun is apparently 3000 miles away instead of 93,000,000 why haven't we burned? The flat earthers never said the sun's true temperature which is 5,505 Celsius according to "globalists". Here"s a simple experiment that should prove to any reasonable person that the Sun is more than 2500 miles away. Let"s say you live in New York (substitute other cities as appropriate). Measure the angular diameter of the Sun. It should be about 32R42;. Now call your friends in Los Angeles (2500 miles away) and London (3500 miles away in almost the opposite direction) and ask how large the Sun appears to them. If it appears to be roughly the same size in all three places, it is geometrically impossible for it to be only 2500 miles away. {1} http://nerdist.com... {2} http://www.popsci.com... {3} http://www.smarterthanthat.com...
Earth is spherical/spheroid shaped

It's a pleasure to rematch you. Refutation of opponent's points, I'll start with the easiest. Gyroscopes: Actually gyroscopes do not prove the Earth's shape whatsoever, but surprisingly, they did a gyroscope experiment and it appeared to prove Earth's rotation http://scienceblogs.com... I'll quote some of the paragraphs in that source above: "The Sun, as it were, appears to move in half of a great circle throughout the sky. What"s more, is that if you look up at night, you"ll find that the night sky appears to move along a similar path, like the entire heavens rotates" "The pendulum, swinging back and forth, will be affected by the Earth"s rotation! The effect won"t be visible in just a few swings; in fact, if you were at 30 degrees North latitude (as the diagram above shows), it would take two full days for the pendulum to spin around once, or five minutes for it to rotate a mere one degree. So what happens if you do this?" "Well, the first time this was demonstrated was in 1851, by the Frenchman Leon Foucault, and the device is now known as the Foucault Pendulum. In fact, there are many of these all over the world, including the world"s heaviest one right by me in Portland, OR. The results are almost immediately striking. The simplest way to do it is to build a long pendulum with a heavy mass, and tie it off at a small but significant (5-10 degree) angle. Leave it overnight. In the morning, come in and mark its position, and then burn the string you used to tie it off. Why burn it? Because this way, you won"t accidentally introduce any angular momentum; the pendulum will simply swing back-and-forth in a straight line." "And then come back to it. Or, if you"ve got some time, just watch it go. Know what you"ll see?" Picture below: http://scienceblogs.com... Chicago Skyline: My opponent says that it'd be impossible to photograph on a 25,000 mile circumference ball. "Joshua Nowicki has been photographing the Chicago skyline for a few years now. This would be impossible if he were doing so on a ball that is 25,000 miles in circumference." Not sure about that because the Earth is big enough to feel and look flat. About his Christmas balls, I don't celebrate Christmas just so you know, but small balls are much different from ginormous balls because any ball that is as big as Earth can work like a flat ground and can even have a flat ground placed on it, Kansas is flat as a pancake yet Earth is an oblate ball. The YouTube Videos below are more convincing than they seem! http://nerdist.com... http://www.popsci.com... http://www.smarterthanthat.com... http://scienceblogs.com...
