Reason:

I have to weigh the arguements according to burden of proof. According to pro, he wasnt trying to prove anything, so i have to weigh arguments based on relevance to topic. Pro seemed like he wanted to discuss the bible, or at least things IN the bible. Con didnt even give a response on what to discuss. It seems to me that pro was expecting a conversation in first round and got nothing. 2nd round the con affirms biblical information through science and philosophy, ie space and ontological argument, which agree with the scriptures, but the problem is that the ontological argument isnt contained in the 66 books, so it had little relevance to the discussion. The topic about space (which is mentioned in scriptures) did not apparently qualify to pro as he dismissed it and said "

Well and good, but these are effectively outside the bible, i asked that the person im discussing with would explain views and beliefs in or regarding the 66 books of the bible" i can only surmise that he asserted the proof of space as "outside" the bible. And then con spammed an i agree.

My evaluation is that this was a waste of time for both sides, if this was meant to be a discussion there was no effort on either part to actually discuss. For the love of God dont ask me to judge these things in the future
