The USA is under no obligation to provide the Jews a homeland. The Jews have lived in Palestine for millenia, Palestine is their homeland. Jews will not want to move to Israel.
I agree with you on many things but this is where you're wrong. Colonization is immoral, no matter what your intentions are. People have a right to self-determination, and an invasion stops them from exercising that right.
"But the government isn’t some shadowy, monolithic organization. It’s made up of people, like us. People who think independently, often disagree with each other, and very often make mistakes."
This quote is brilliant. It perfectly summarizes what the government is.
You didn't "set me straight" upon the term "omniscient". I already knew what it was. I don't even know why you brought up omniscience. And please, stop saying crap like "YOUR COMICAL QUOTE", "ungodly", "feeble arguments". It makes you look pathetic and only ruins this website for others.
I don't know enough about Zimbabwe's land redistribution to debate about it. Maybe that's even a good idea. What I'm against is deporting all non-Africans from Africa.
I suggest you use more definite terms. What is "bad"? Do you think that fan-fiction writers should stop making fan-fiction? Do you think that they should get legally prosecuted? "Bad" is a really vague term.
I have stated that it’s impossible to prove that something doesn’t exist. But we also assume something does not exist if we see no proof of its existence.
Stop using quotes out of an old book written by Jewish scribes in the desert and find some normal arguments.
(By the way, you will burn in hell for your wrath!)
The Cosmological argument is actually one of the worst arguments for God out there. First, it assumes that the universe has a cause. Second, it talks about a cause and not a creator. And third, if everything must have a cause then what caused God?
Your mental gymnastics are astounding. If everyone is guilty of homosexuality, why should only homosexuals be executed according to the Bible? Do you even understand what homophobia is?
Again, where is the inextricable link between Israel and US? You can't just say "You haven't been paying attention", you have to prove your claims.
I never said that you did. I was talking to Dr Franklin.
That's not because they are black, though. Skin color doesn't make you more likely to commit crimes.
"My opponent says that because SOME white people were racist to SOME white people in the past"
I made a typo. The second "white people" should be changed to "black people".
I’d use the standard one, King James version
And where is the "inextricable link" between US and Jewish people? Your claims are borderline anti-semitism.
I'm not talking about a practical solution. I'm talking about the best outcome of the conflict.
The USA is under no obligation to provide the Jews a homeland. The Jews have lived in Palestine for millenia, Palestine is their homeland. Jews will not want to move to Israel.
"Truth isn't necessarily racism."
But what you're saying is not true.
So what? Just because you're a descendant doesn't mean you built anything yourself.
If you want you can debate me. Because I believe that the Jewish people deserve their own homeland, just like the Palestinians.
It's impossible to debate with these idiots. They just repeat the same nonsense over and over like a broken recorder.
Why would we relocate all the Israelis to the USA?
The Palestinians don’t recognize Israel as a state. And I’m saying that the best outcome would be two states.
The Old Testament is a part of the Bible.
AOC has some really bad policies, and I wouldn't vote for her. But she is not mentally ill and is perfectly fit to serve in the US government.
I agree with you on many things but this is where you're wrong. Colonization is immoral, no matter what your intentions are. People have a right to self-determination, and an invasion stops them from exercising that right.
I see you're a fan of Ben Shapiro too :)
But my opponent has stated that murder is taking somebody's life, so I went with that definition.
You weren't one of them.
Exactly! Aren't you using the American economy to further yourself? Why don't you follow your logic and return to Africa?
Why would God let us get sick in the first place, if his designs are perfect?
I think individuals should own the means of production, but the government should regulate those individuals. Pure 100% capitalism is awful.
Though I disagree with you about many things, I agree with you on this one. The Bible literally tells Christians to kill gays.
I made a debate and invited you. (:

Well someone's going to have an easy victory.
Hey! Didn't we want to debate on this topic? Maybe you could make another debate that I could join?
You didn't "set me straight" upon the term "omniscient". I already knew what it was. I don't even know why you brought up omniscience. And please, stop saying crap like "YOUR COMICAL QUOTE", "ungodly", "feeble arguments". It makes you look pathetic and only ruins this website for others.
If by "pragmatism" you mean treat others how you yourself would like to be treated, then yes.
Yeah I don't think taking land away from people based on their race is good. It's textbook racism.
I don't know enough about Zimbabwe's land redistribution to debate about it. Maybe that's even a good idea. What I'm against is deporting all non-Africans from Africa.

Just to confirm before I post my argument. Should I include rebuttals or not?
So why are Christians following an ethical system given by God, but other religions are just confused? Based on what do you make that claim?
If there are no laws against an inflatable Barney, it’s already legal. Many countries, however, do have laws against gay marriage.

Please use capitalization. Otherwise it’s really hard to read what you write.

Your mental gymnastics are astounding. If everyone is guilty of homosexuality, why should only homosexuals be executed according to the Bible? Do you even understand what homophobia is?
But the Bible literally says that men who have homosexual sex should be put to death! How is that not discrimination based on sexual orientation?
Are you saying that homosexuals and thieves are the same thing?
So do Christians just choose their morals too, according to your logic? And if no, why not?
Yeah, I’m ready. You can make the debate and challenge me.
So that means their morals are subjective? If yes, why aren’t all morals subjective?
Existence - actual and present occurence.
I think that an omnipotent, all-knowing, and omnipresent God (the one described in the Bible) doesn't exist.
Could we have a debate on the same topic? I’d like do give some of my own arguments and hopefully change your mind.
The Bible says that if two men have sex with each other they should be executed. Is that not homophobic?
90% of Con's argument is "You're Satan, stop lying about Jesus!"
If Morality is objective, then how come different cultures have different moral standards?
