::JSR OFFICIAL DEBATES::
Hey dudes.
New feature on the forum to keep things intelligent. Introducing Jet Set Revolution Official Debates.
I've been thinking about adding this for a long time. Every week we'll have a new topic. The users of the forum will be free to express their opinions - No spamming allowed. If this gets a big enough following, it might get it's own section.
This weeks topic is completely open. You can suggest a topic yourself, or, if someone already suggested something you can Talk about it here.
Some possibilites:
-Conservatives vs. Liberals -Religion vs. Science -Females vs. Males
Rules:
-No spamming -No flaming -Respect others opinions and beliefs, if they do not match your own, you may disagree (naturally) but don't hold it agaisnt them outside the thread.
These things have zero tolerance. Posts containing these things will be deleted immediately.
This is for fun however, so try to enjoy yourself.
Lets see how popular this becomes.... <closes eyes>TEXTTEXT

Okay, I'll start (I've never actually BEEN in a debate class, so I'm using what I've picked up here and there).
Resolved: Liberals are better than Conservatives because the current Conservatives don't represent America well.

However, liberals only know one thing. . .tax and spend (oops, I think that's two things), where conservatives tax everyone (the rich get better breaks, I know - makes you want to be rich doesn't it). . .. . .liberals want to tax everybody to death.
But I will say this. . .not all conservatives are saints, and not all liberals are the devil-incarnate.

Taxes affect everyone, that's why that's usually the first subject that does come up. . .
You'd be surprised to know, that not all conservatives think abortion, gay marriage and every other so-called liberal issue is wrong.
Abortion - in the case of incest or rape. . I have no problem with it, if it's being used as a form of birth control, no way.
gay marriage - heck, I'm not even sure regular marriage is a good idea. . .but if a couple wants to destroy Their relationship by getting married. . .so be it.
ecology - pollution is a killer that affects everyone. . I don't believe the "Ozone" problem is just because of hair spray cannisters, when there have been so many recent volcanic eruptions that have also done major harm/damage to the ozone layer.
The anti-logging people, scream about the destruction of the forests; yet, most logging companies, paper mills, etc. involved in logging; are also invloved in replacing the trees and conservation. . .to just rip the forests apart and not replace what they took would be suicide to their industry. Because of their efforts, quicker-growing and more drought-tolerant trees have been developed.

Girls vs. Boys is an imaginary contest made up by idiot feminists who, in their undying quest to be equal, they have come to believe they are somehow more equal than, and is marketed by immature 12 year olds who think shirts that say "Boys stink! throw rocks at them!" are the most hilarious things in the universe.

Under the cover of "bring your daughter to work" day, which is an intentional "slap" at man in general (there is no "take your son to work" day), to the idea that all boys need to be doped up in order to attend school, because teachers don't want to deal with "boys" in general. Those feminists are doing a darn good job at emasculating boys, tuning them into beings with little or no self worth, because they are the "wrong" gender.

I agree, the boys vs. girls debate was some idiotic caper that still continues today.
Science vs. Religion, I believe that the two subjects go hand-in-hand. If you follow the book of Genesis in the Bible, the order of the creation story seems to go with the theory of evolution. Organisms went from being simple to being more complex over time, just like in the bible.
Cons vs. Libs, I don't know. My brother's a crazy Con and always complains about "Those damn liberals!" I don't really know or care about the subject.

as for science vs. religion...I vote science (I know, its a debate, not a poll). Science is backed up by fact, whereas religion is just belief. You can believe in anything you want, but that wont make it true. But physical evidence and proof as seen in science can be disproved, but, it is sa of then fact, because there is proof, which is what matters.
