CON tried to ascertain that God and Science are two different entities, PRO rightly claims that Science and Santa should also be held under the same weighing scale. PRO's arguments of both God and Santa being entities of faith and are thus similar made more sense to me.
Pro showed that the two are indeed likened to each other in terms of belief and their reward and punishment systems. Con tried a one tail attack, consisting of a single line (until the final round, which to me is a big no-no), which without a solidified comparison does not even try to create differences to negate pro's case.
S&G for formatting issues which confused pro's words with con's. This was magnified by it being more of this than con had in his own case.
Not giving sources, as they were only brought up in the final round when a response was no longer possible.
I'll pose this question to you and it's quite simple and direct. Has Santa been proven to be false according to the claim?
Improving your arguments and presentation thereof.
It'll help in what sir or ma'am?
This will help you a lot:

I lazily assumed the topic was a typo of God and Satan
As per the description, all pro needs to do is demonstrate that believing in Santa Claus is likened to the belief in God.
He came from DDO and that is why he uses the description as A1. However it is curious that he did not make any clear arguments.
A chickenshyte tactic.
He is probably waiving.
Mall's round 1 reiterates the description, but the description asks for "how" the one subject is likened to the other. I see no "how." Argument failure. Need a better argument than reiteration.
