3. Provide evidence.
4. Don't commit logical fallacies.
5. Don't declare victory when you haven't won.

Better conduct

Reason:
pro wins this seemingly impossible debate by using a source that analyzes the exact meaning of the Hebrew connotation "intent of ‘FOR YOURSELVES’ IS SEXUAL OR MATRIMONIAL IS OBVIOUS" that con failed to tackle head on. As a result I have no choice but to vote pro.
What now?
It would be interesting to see you try this one again
"that con failed to tackle head on."
Are you sure? And, that's sounds like wishful thinking. Also, pro's sources are the best exmple of gish gallop. Plus, you're still adding something into the text.
What makes you think that people who side with me are wrong?
pro's source is either the best gish gallop I've ever seen, or people who side with con are wrong.
The Christian cited evidence for his claims. While, Muslims cherry-picked and poison the well. And, killing of children?
wait you used a youtube video from the Christines and expact me to not do the same from Muslims ? and stop defending killing of childern
Plus, have you cited those Jewish scholars because they agree with you?
You mean cherry-picking Jewish scholars? I was the one who brorught multiple evidence, not you. And, you're saying Michael Heiser isn't good? For Deut 21, dishonor =/= rape.
Those children will grow, and will see their tribe's past. Do you understand what I'm saying? Doesn't make it eaiser? Plus, aren't the Midianites mentioned in Jugdes 6?
And, citing a Muslim site? I can do that as well. http://www.christian-thinktank.com/midian.html
I should note that Ibn_HAM (Master.NO) will repeat the same comment about Numbers 31 over and over again.
If you see the "Publish argument" button, click on it. And, you can lay out your arguments.
i dont know where to begin yes i am master no
I thought of letting a Muslim by the name of "Master.NO" in, since he thinks Jesus somehow mentioned in there. But, I think he won't come in.
I'm very interested to see who will accept this debate
I figured
I will address that in the debate.
Biblical interpretation isn't really my cup of tea. But reading the passage, it seems to imply that the girls will be sex slaves since they have to have never slept with a man. But it's vague enought that they could just be virgin sacrifices or maidservants for all we know. I'm interested to see how you debate this if someone accepts
Then, provide evidence.
yeah, im pretty sure it does
Sounds fun, huh?
Sorry.
7 rules? LOL
I know this topic quite well. So, I will most luckly will win this one.
even considering con's debate record, I can't see pro winning this.
