Morality - most topically defined by Merriam Webster as "a doctrine or system of moral conduct" Objective - the best summation by Merriam Webster I found would be " having reality independent of the mind" Perhaps humanity would run wild without it. Perhaps nothing could function without it. But that doesn't change the question. Does it exist? Yes? Well then, come on down and convince me and any of my fellows who agree.
Topic: Is abortion ethical? I will be taking the PRO position, as in, "Abortion is ethical". This is to kind of follow up the pattern of my other two debates, I look forward to any acceptees.

This is meant to serve as a short demo debate so I can assess the potential of a full debate later on.
I will be supporting the position that God is not necessary for objective morality, while my opponent will be supporting the position that God is necessary for objective morality.

I shall be arguing for presentism. I shall define it as the view in which the only reality that exists now is present reality when it comes to non-abstract or non-imaginary existence. The present moment is all that is concrete.

Idealism: Idealism is the belief that we should adopt moral principles, even if they have negative effects on our lives Pragmatism: Pragmatism, on the other hand, is a rejection of idealism. If the Idealist's principles get in the way, the Pragmatist does whatever is deemed as practical, with no concerns for morality. Society:the aggregate of people living together in a more or less ordered community.

Intended for fauxlaw but anyone who agrees with him may accept. Almost everything is up for change: word count, number of rounds, etc.
Enter this debate at will. RM and Fauxlaw may be interested in this topic.
If there are any parameters on the debate you'd like to change before accepting this debate (character count, number of rounds, etc.) just tell me.
Enter this debate at will. Sigmaphil is discouraged to enter this debate since he did last time.
I will be arguing that my personal non-theistic stance can also reject Atheism.
Hello everyone! I have heard and seen a nonstop flow of political rhetoric from both main U.S parties (Democratic and Republican). Anyhow, I wish to delve into and hopefully debunk what I find to be bad ideas from both sides of the aisle. In this second installment (see the border wall debate) I wish to switch party lines and take on federal government benefits (including health care and welfare) that many mainstream Democrats defend.
I will be arguing for Taoism, and my opponent will be arguing for Confucianism. Both will be arguing which school of thought is more beneficial to humanity in general.
’If’ is not utilitarian because it only acknowledges what is currently not true.
Does a good, perfect person struggle with evil? I will define "perfection" within the scope of this debate. It is: living a perfect life is living a life without error of any kind under any circumstance. It is always making correct choices when faced with every circumstance. Impossible to achieve? Probably. But, if even a perfect person by this definition still struggles with evil, is there any doubt that the rest of us do?
"IF" is the most useless word in any language because it acknowledges only that which is currently not true.
Hello everyone! Today I would like to make the case for classical Theism, that is the case for God. This question has been debated throughout all of history and so it is quite an honor to continue this great conversation and build upon it in the present day. DO NOT join if you have an agnostic view of God/do not have evidence for the position that God does not exist. To Truth! -logicae

Imagine that you go to vote and some, jerk stops you and says, hey you aren't voting right go home, like a bogus literacy test, what sort of f*&cking retard violates basic human rights by telling people how they can vote?
Hello everyone! I have heard and seen a nonstop flow of political rhetoric from both main u.s parties (democratic and republican). Anyhow, I wish to delve into and hopefully debunk what I find to be bad ideas from both sides of the aisle. Anyone who has strong opinions on the matter is welcome to join, just be sure to have well developed arguments to assist your side (In other words don't be like most American voters ;).
We must consider the fact that the universe is a simulation, and if it is a simulation, in my opinion it is better to have significant influence on society than it is to be a "good person". It would be better to be a serial killer who becomes famous than a person who regularly attends church, donates large amounts of money to charity and is loved by everyone around her.
I will be arguing pro hedonism. You will be arguing con hedonism by showing an alternative philosophy to be better.
Hawaiian pizza is literally the best kind.
Full Resolution: Persons recently painted with green pigment foam must stand around all odd-numbered SCPs at least two hours a day.
This is not a debate about whether you have a right to won a gun, you don't , all rights are made up , the us constitution was made up, and only gave the states the right to form militias
