The purpose of this debate is for Pro to establish that there is enough credible evidence to question the current theory of the origins and purpose of the Great Sphinx and The Great Pyramid of Giza. Con must demonstrate compelling evidence to support the current belief system. It is the accepted system so compelling should be easy. So both parties have to build a case.

If you tried to vote on debate.org it wouldn't let you and list the requirements, here it lets you vote anyway and then mods come and remove your votes because you didn't follow the guidelines, talk about a lazy downgrade much.

As humans, I contend it is impossible for there to be an absolute ban on the experimentation on/of animals as we progress The contender shall demonstrate that, through the balance of probabilities, banning of animal experimentation shall not impair our progress.

At some point it is likely or possible a technological singularity will occur sometime after we create a self improving super artificial intelligence. Anyone reading this debate should help to create that super AI.

I should note that, even if evolution is proven to be true, it wouldn't really disprove Christianity.

Is gender a social construct? Rules of the debate are: 1. Don't use logical fallacies. 2. No swearing or name calling. 3. Give evidence, and not feelings. 4. Stay on topic. 5. Give counter arguments. 6. Don't be stupid. 7. Don't be fool. Good luck.

Cattle mutilations are back in the news, along with the same wack-a-doodle theories from freaked-out farmers. Contrary to many popular theories, cattle mutilations are a naturally occurring phenomenon and not evidence of aliens, satanic cults, cryptids, or government intervention.
