Description

I am going to waive the first round and Pro would have to wave the final round.

Pro: Jesus did resurrect and I can prove it
Con: No he didn't

Burden of proof is on Pro. If I fail to counter his claims sufficiently then he wins. If I do counter his claims sufficiently then I win.

Kind of an extreme burden of proof since I would have to debunk all his claims to win but given there isn't a lot to discuss I don't think this is too much to ask for.

I don't really want to add rules since I know they ain't going to be enforced and think if the previous rules are going to be broken I still think I can win if I do post arguments as well.

Thanks for reading and participating in whatever way you see fit.

Hopefully this is worthwhile.

Reason:

Arguments:

Due to plagiarism: I cannot accept pros R1 and R2; thus pro effectively makes no positive argument for his case. As a result, as BoP is on pro - this is an automatic loss on arguments; even before considering cons arguments relating to the reliability of the Bible. Arguments to con.

Conduct;

Pro plagiarized the entire R1 and R2 - this is clearly unacceptable, unfair and a substantial infraction that warrants award of conduct.
