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.

It's evident, it's true that the topic is correct. It's scientific as in realizing everything around us.

Even philosophically broached by Swami Satchidananda . Everything that is will be.

That's as far as I'll go in the description. If you're really sharp, you'll see the topic is fact and non-contestable .

*Looking for arguments against only biological reincarnation*

Round 1

Pro

What is your argument for biological reincarnation?

Novice_II

Con

x. Default to con

Pro bears the full burden of proof, and failure to uphold such alone is sufficient for a con victory. The definition of reincarnation itself informs us that it is a "philosophical or religious concept," so pro also holds the burden to prove that it is a biological one as well.

Con need not provide any argument of his own.

Framework

Biological: of or relating to biology or to life and living processes
Reincarnation: reincarnation, also known as rebirth or transmigration, is the philosophical or religious concept that the non-physical essence of a living being begins a new life in a different physical form or body after biological death.
Real: having objective independent existence (b) not artificial, fraudulent, or illusory.

Rebuttal(s)

Nothing to rebut, no argument from pro. He bears the entire burden of proof here.

Let the record show that I have asked this question to this person several times. They will not answer .

This includes all the debate sessions with the same topic with the same individual. The person knows my points.

The person simply will not answer the question. It appears there are other individuals that will debate reincarnation.

I'm asking for a refutation attempt at biological reincarnation. The person is aware of what that is because I explained it .

I'm not going to repeat myself to the same person.

When they can answer that question, we can move on.

I would like my vote on this debate removed on the grounds that I no longer agree with it.

I already believe that reincarnation is logically possible, especially as a theist, so I already agree with such a position. I am only accepting these debates to directly benefit from incompetent people. I would say if reincarnation is true, it would be in a metaphysical sense which is not explicitly biological. I also want to place a halt on explicit metaphysics debates because for now because I want to read more into the branch. It seems to me that we agree on a lot more than we disagree in my impression however.

@Novice_II

Would you be interested in debating in this same topic, Novice? i would prefer to put it as "reincarnation is not illogical" or "reincarnation has good evidence". Would you be interested? I will of course take mall's position on the matter.

Mall

Doesn't matter. This person is obsessed with this topic.

K_Michael

I would recommend putting a definition for "biological reincarnation" in the description.

Reason:

I originally voted to tie as I considered a lack of arguments on both sides to supersede the Burden of Proof. However, the fact that Mall continued in each iteration to refuse to make any sort of argument in repeats made it clear that he was not "arguing" in the spirit of Debate, but merely attempting to make Novice assert his own beliefs, something much better suited to a forum discussion or a PM. The best way to force Novice to make an argument would have been to make an argument himself. Novice was prepared to make an argument, but it was never necessitated by Mall's behavior.
