Here we shall see if, at this point in the argument, one can argue that CoVID=19 is of natural origins or synthetic.

Civility, and source, please. Let's have some fun.

Reason:

There's just not much to say on this. Much as the opening argument by Pro was intriguing, there's a lot of points there that either need further support or needed to be rebuilt after Con's responses. Technical virology like this needs a great deal of support, and much as this was a good start, it's really not enough to demonstrate the claim being made. Even if I'm not holding you to a higher standard for your scientific reasoning and I just treat this as a debate, Con's responses undercut every point Pro made, and the lack of counter rebuttal leaves Pro without a leg to stand on.

Reason:

Strong opening from pro, but ultimately a forfeiture with every rebuttal dropped.

And yes, I am assuming the argument was not plagiarized (amazed to see anything still posted on that corpse of a site).
