Description

We are referring to the God of the Bible. We can use the bible as a source.

I wish I had voted, so I could give the win to Singularity. Running a Kritik is always in poor taste, IMO, especially when you set up the debate yourself. It's just plain deceitful.

I have a spreadsheet which generates all that with just a few clicks.

Thank you. I reviewed the voting policy in detail before casting my vote and felt I was within the guidelines.

>Reason for Mod Action:
The vote was found to be sufficient per the site voting policy standards.
There are three types of tied votes:
(1) Ones which allot zero points. They have no meaningful impact on the debate outcome, and are thus only moderated if warranted for other reasons.
(2) Ones which cancel themselves out. While the category assignments may serve as feedback to the debaters, there is no still meaningful impact for moderation consider. These are in essence the same as the previous type.
(3) Votes which leave arguments tied, but assign other categories. While these need not meet the sufficiency standards for an argument vote, they must still evaluate arguments enough to justify no clear winner. There is however an exception for >=50% forfeitures allowing conduct only with no further explanation.

Outside content may be commented on, so long as it does not cross into being a determinant factor on the vote. Should the voter weigh things outside of what the debaters themselves presented inside the debate rounds, the vote is eligible for deletion (identified plagiarism is a notable exception).

your using the omnipotence and omniscient paradox, two arguments that can be easily debunked

@User_2006

It is. He is mocking scripture. If you read the whole story, david and johnathan were like bros.

@oromagi

I think the quote on the bottom is made-up consider it matches no results on the internet.

@oromagi

Lol

"You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination." Leviticus 18

And David spake, "that is why Johnathan and I always do it standing up. Sometimes on chariots.... chariot sex is the best!" Samuel 69

Just ask mods to delete and try another debate. Use that title and put yourself as con or pro respectively. As long as debate isnt finished they can delete if both parties agree.

Admins have no control over whether you will do the ethical thing and instigate as pro. Here is how you do it. You instigate as pro and name the debate "god does not hate homosexuality "

If we are going by bible, then yes, God hates the sin of homosexuality.

@Singularity

"Never instigate as con mother fuckers. It is dumb, just reword it to be a pro statement"

Ask the admins and Debateart.Org the user please. It is 0 use to ask us.

Liberals: "God loves homosexuality"

Also Liberals: "When God says he hates homosexuality, ignore him because of separation of church and state"

Which is it liberals?

Never instigate as con mother fuckers. It is dumb, just reword it to be a pro statement

-->
@User_2006

I do now. This changes my approach

-->
@Singularity

You are on the PRO side of the debate, you realize that, right?

How can god hates homosexuals if he engages in sex with other men
