I haven't ever finished 15 animes, so this might have been a mistake, especially if we turn out to have similar interests.
May I also assume that this won't be voted on since we're contributing towards a common goal?

Imagine if you actually debated this, or discussed it on a forum, rather than generating comments on a Rap Battle.

"Other priorities are not possible without science."
I don't agree. Animals have an urge to feed without an understanding of science.
Plants grow without an understanding, period.

I think it's funny that you can get to 14th place in 3 weeks. DART is still pretty small.

"You can not carry around tanks in public. People normally don't get shot in their car. Guns are effective because they are easy to carry and a deterrent for criminals."

I now visualize every debate as two old guys yelling at each other over their fence/hedge while others spectate.
Now that is quality entertainment! XD

@Speedrace

A. There are no "split-second decisions" on this (or most other) site You also shouldn't look at a debate just based on who is debating it.
B. There was probably plenty of underlying meaning in his Elephant avatar. I don't have a raven just cuz I like ravens.

VI and VII aren't part of the New Trilogy. A trilogy can only have three parts unless you're Douglas Adams.

Alternatively the Disney Trilogy,

I call them the Original Trilogy (OT, IV, V, VI) and Prequel Trilogy (PT, I, II, III) and also add in the Sequel Trilogy (ST, VII, VIII and upcoming IX).

Technically, every kind of organism is a different type than every other organism, because type can be defined by a single difference. I am a "different type" of organism from every other human because I am me, but in the context of the debate, that's not what you're implying.

Define "the truth." It's very vague.

I said generally misrepresented, not universally. I also concede that Snape is a good Slytherin, though his sacrifice in HP 7 is more of a Gryffindor/Hufflepuff thing.

Sorry. I didn't mean to tag you. Refusing to platform a view like Milo's is a conscientious thing to do.

I was trying to just throw that information out there for the benefit of humanity.

Censoring unpopular or controversial topics is one of the reasons the Dark Ages lasted so long.

I won't forget to bring this up again, but I don't want to swamp myself like RM did. I'll probably limit myself to debating 5 at a time.

Technically, refusing to publish or allow certain views to be spoken or written on a college campus isn't a violation of free speech. It's like saying, "you can say what you want, but you can't do it here."
Another example is removing a person from the room for interrupting court proceedings.

Why else separate sexes, except to prevent "intimacy"?

@Tiwaz

I assume that the point of single-sex education is to avoid *ahem* intimate relationships.
Unfortunately, that won't work, because homosexuality has allowed us to transcend the borders of trying to separate those who would participate with each other in sensual activities by keeping males and females apart.

And your profile is a kingfisher? It looks similar, anyways.

@Chitty-Chitty

I'm fairly interested in ornithology, myself. I'm probably not going to major in it, though. It's more like a hobby.
What's your favorite bird? You said you wanted to be a falconer, so I'm guessing a bird of prey.

I would have responded sooner, but I didn't see a notification. Possibly I was clearing them as you published?

Seriously, Josh? Pro is being nice and you continue to not post debates. As the instigator, this is ridiculous. Pro should post an argument and win. If neither post, Pro will win on conduct alone.

Ah. I read "certain knowledge is impossible" as "some knowledge specifically cannot be known," not "nothing can be known for sure."
The word certain is slightly ambiguous, but I really should have remembered the definition of skepticism to begin with.

So do you believe that nothing is impossible to know?

I also have no idea how my position ended up being Con. I'm pretty sure that I selected Pro.

It doesn't matter if it is already being taught. Someone can argue for or against something being instituted even if it's already instituted. It's just like saying "Donald Trump should be President."

All very valid, but I would still like certain things to be taught.

Could you also define "parenthesis signs." I mean, I know what they are, but I have no idea what they mean in this context.
