"Oh come on, I'm merely pointing out that higher order mammals have to ensure their society's sustained survival in order to ensure the adept individual's sustained survival.
Eugenics was based on racial disparities not homeostatic maintenance and sustainability of the immediate society."

This is wrong. Based on this logic it would be morally permissible to kill those who are disabled or those who are "unfit.' The "undesirables" hurt the overall "homeostatic" nature of the rest of society.

If you’re argument inherently has some rebuttals attaches I’m perfectly OK with it.

Sounds good. Looking forward to the argument. I hope we can finally have a good debate!

Also are you pro life? Taking your views to its logical conclusion it would appear that abortion would be immoral.

Kinda curious if you think smoking is immoral? It’s obvciously harmful to yourself and those around you.

That line of reason was pretty much responsible for eugenics and an attempt to create a ‘master race’ by killing those who are ‘unfit’

Interesting. Though in Darwinian Evolution it’s survival of the most adapt. It puts the individual against society.

The objective morality response was interesting. I don’t think I’ve seen an atheist affirm natural law

Regardless if my errors were fewer you should not have awarded me that point.

I’m surprised that you can’t revote if your vote is removed. I think that’s something that should be done.

@ethang5

You should be able to revote if you want and just post arguments.

I feel like I should have pushed harder in the debate.

I just read your argument. You miss one thing: DA users don’t go spamming on DI or other debate sites about how great their platform is compared to theirs. Haha. Yeah

Yeah I worded it awkwardly. Rebuttals include all rebuttals and defense is defense of your arguments and the rebuttals.

More characters and more rounds. Round 1 should have been arguments. It’s impossible to make a strong opening case and rebut your points in R2 with less than 1k characters.

Though ultimately I have a stronger BOP than you do

If you want we can make this a 3 round debate and just waive the fourth round

Fair enough. I ff’d two rounds and would hate for my opponent to have this debate a tie. Would still like argument feedback though

The debate info and stuff can be entered separately so the first round can be used for arguments instead of acceptance only

All reports are completely anonymous. We don’t even know who’s reporting it, which imo is a good thing.
