Description

Disclaimer : Regardless of the setup for voting win or lose, The aim of this interaction, Is for those that view it, Learn and or take away anything that will amount to any constructive value ultimately. So that counts as anything that'll cause one to reconsider an idea, Understand a subject better, Help build a greater wealth of knowledge getting closer to truth. When either of us has accomplished that with any individual here, That's who the victor of the debate becomes.

Holidays are pushed with merchandise via retailers, media outlets and of course more imposed on folks like proselytization.

Absolutely greater than religion as there is the push of holiday decorations. It's truly the dollar bill that makes it that way and it's all around us. I mean all around us by season.

For denial of this, step up to the plate, argue otherwise but 4 strikes and your out.

Send your questions by comment or message for clarity of anything.

Thanks that's the goal. Every last one of us should have improvement. If you're not better than what you were before even when you're already fantastic, something's wrong. So that's the whole point

Glanced at your first couple rounds, and I'll outright say nice improvement!

>Reason for Mod Action:

This vote was two sentences. In other words, WAY too vague.

This can be avoided in future by just commenting on the core contention (and the main counterpoint or the lack thereof), listing a single source you found important (if voting sources), saying what conduct violation distracted you (if voting conduct)... You need not write a thesis but some minimal level of detail is required to verify knowledge of what you're grading.

Yeah, holidays are religions. Beer bottles are cars. You should vote Con.
