For central organizational purposes. We can dispute in the forum. It's more manageable in the debate arena instead of keeping track of every activity notice to respond.

Hey, dodge the challenge if you can't defend your belief or position strongly enough.. I think the scripture say seek not what is above what you could understand.....I think it says .....if the way be too long for thee.

I picked up my scriptures from Harikrish the biblical scholar. He was not a debater either.

@Shila
Yeah he was a scholar while Paul was a debater.

Debating is putting someone down in a competition. Scholars share their learnings.

What does scripture say debating is?
The Apostle Paul wrote to his mentee Timothy, “Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant controversies; you know that they breed quarrels. And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness” (2 Timothy 22:23-25a).

An ironic thing that irks me about you is that you carry so much of your dialogue (and debates) in such a way that, people (are supposed to) have something to learn from you. And so little of your dialogue (and debates) is carried in such a way that you have something to learn from others or from whoever you're talking to.
You preach for others to seek out the correct answers but don't do much of that yourself, carrying yourself in such a way as if you already have the answers.

@Shila
While Mall's general attitude is of putting you down. I'd disagree that debates are generally involved in that. In my mind proper constructive debates ideally end with either or both parties having grown or learned even just a little bit at the conclusion of the debate. Even in cases where neither of them moves from their main held position.
That said, its perfectly valid to not participate in debates, and your unwillingness to debate does not (necessarily on its own) reflect on your position poorly. I just merely wanted to voice my disagreement to your viewpoint of debates.

What does 2 Timothy 2 23 25 mean?
Thus Paul tells Timothy that he should not quarrel or get entangled in foolish and pointless arguments (this is part of guarding or watching your life). And he tells him to stand for sound teaching over against his opponents (this is part of guarding or watching your doctrine).

It's called being confident, standing on my position. The scripture say stand firm on your belief.

@Shila
Scripture say debate thy cause. I believe the scripture say Paul disputed daily.
Scripture say contend for the faith so yes the scripture encourages debating. Whether you realize it or not , you're debating me right now and have been.

Why are you trying to ruin a much recognized Christmas celebration?
-->
@Mall
The scripture also encourages humility as a virtue. You're making the mistake of thinking that confidence and learning from others are mutually exclusive.
Additionally, if everyone emulates your level of confidence and standing your position, except for their position. Then not only would people be less likely to learn from each other. When they interact with you, they would be doing *exactly* the very thing you are criticizing them of.

What does the Bible say about debating the word of God?
He told Timothy that fighting about words not only was “useless” but also led to “the ruin of those who listen” (2 Tim. 2:14). Those who engage in empty and irreverent speech will “produce even more godlessness, and their teaching will spread like gangrene” (2 Tim. 2:16-17).

It says debate thy cause. So having eyes, you cannot see, thy cause, whether the word of God, exposing, stopping false doctrine, it is all cause. It is what is supporting you to do in this back and forth, you're debating with me on it .

What is the meaning of Proverbs 25 10?
Wise men will know you are wicked and will rebuke you, and you will be disgraced and shamed. The lesson is simple: do not talk critically or negatively about others; do not spread news or rumors; do not slander anyone. Gossip is a heinous sin, and it can permanently stain your reputation.
