I have a few topic ideas I'd like to explore in a new debate and would love to hear your thoughts, as you'll likely be the ones reading it. I wouldn't want people to read a boring debate, so feel free to share your thoughts. Please feel free to comment below if you'd like to participate in any of these topics or if you have any suggestions for new ones.
I'll list the topics in order from "most common/least interesting" to "least common/most interesting," based on how familiar I think people might be with them. By "most common," I mean topics that are often debated and may feel overdone, like an overplayed song. I'd prefer to avoid familiar topics if everyone already knows them well.
TOPICS.
- Are the dual natures of Jesus contradictory or self-refuting?
- Do the Marian Dogmas have theological basis?
- Does Purgatory have theological basis?
- Is the Trinity logical?
- Do any of the Seven Sacraments have theological basis?
- For the purpose of the debate, we would be selecting one Sacrament
- Is the Bible a reliable source?
- Is the Trinity in the Bible?
- Does the Bible claim Jesus is God?

I have not come up with the following problem myself, it is a mere copy-paste. The problem is though-provoking and I am curious to know your opinions.
You are on a boat that is sinking. You do not know if there are other life rafts, but the life raft you are on can only hold 9 people apart from you. From the following list, who do you put on the raft and throw off.
- A doctor, GP, who has an addiction to drugs and is very nervous
- A black Protestant Minister
- A prostitute, but is an excellent nurse, she has already saved a drowning child and put him on another lifeboat
- A criminal. Charged with murder and can navigate the boat.
- A mentally disturbed man, who carries important government secrets in his head
- A law-abiding salesman. He sells automatic washing machines and is also a member of the Rotary Club

- An Irish man studying to be a pharmacist
- An Irish woman, studying to be a nursery teacher
- An American, he is also a Neo-Nazi and thus hates the Jew. However, he has a large box of food which he will throw into the sea unless he goes into the lifeboat
Good luck.
