Thanks for debating. I appreciate that you didn't forfeit or get banned like my last opponent did, and that you stayed mostly civil.

I made a few errors in my last round.
"It does not censor anyone."
I meant that the Info boxes aren't censorship.
"Once again, it is terrible that aborted babies are in vaccines."
I meant that it is terrible that they develop vaccines from aborted babies. They do not directly put aborted babies into vaccines.

The guy in the video has it exactly backwards. The members of the group don't succeed because the group has some nefarious influence, but because they pick members who are already leaders and are on the path to success. He is basically trying to draw a conspiracy theory out of the fact that a group that only picks successful members has members succeeding.

Correlation does not equal causation. This argument uses a fallacy in the form of propter hoc ergo post hoc (because after, therefore before). If event A happens after event B, A cannot have caused B. The bonesmen were already successful before they joined skull and bones, so skull and bones can't have caused their success.

I found out when I tried to change the limit on my other debate. Too late now.

@SirAnonymous

I am sorry to hear that.I do not have the power to change the character limit.

I really should avoid posting debate arguments after midnight. Now that I reread it, it have a few typos and editing errors. My initial argument was 3,300 characters over the limit, so I had to do some serious editing.

@crossed

Can you increase the character limit? It takes a lot of space to do rebuttals.

@PoliceSheep

I noticed, but thanks for reminding me.

@SirAnonymous

Quora and some of Pro's other sources are really unreliable.

No problem. I'll probably post my rebuttal tomorrow or Thursday.
