I think we all agree about this stupid bullshit

But I wonder how are they going to make the difference between the mass murdering weapon and a sharp kitchen knife

Very good topic!!! I'm right in the middle of it since I'm in university!

There is a good side and a bad side to this, the good side is that it gets young people to interest themselves in politics, when more and more people stop voting because they dont care, as you said those people dont have the experience and knowledge to discuss of such a large pannel of issues, so most of the time what they say isnt worth much, wich isnt that bad because as soon as they try to have a real conversation with an adult or another "educated" young adult they are quickly shown that teir ideas are immature and need more refining, wich pushes them to learn more about the issues and sometimes change their minds

But the downside is even more important and I'm experiencing it right now: in a university right next to mine there are many marxist/communist youtubers and with the help of their fans (about 200) they have blocked the university (by beating upp teachers and students, stacking tables in front of doors etc) and will not stop unless the administration gives in to their demands: more vacation, easier tests, and the minimum grade of 18/20 for everyone on their finals. This situation has been going on for about a month so I'm assembling a group a tough guys and contacting extreme right activists to "liberate" the university

Actually biologically he was a man .

No, most of the time homosexuality is caused by issues with your parents at a young age.

If France didnt colonize north africa they would still be living in tents and herding goats when they are sitting on a huge pile of natural resources.

How are you going to enforce that? An IQ test before logging on ?

ah ok

Well the choice has to be conscious for it to be a real choice, thats why God cant choosebefore birth who is saved and who his not; and God did say he came for everyone

What do you mean IMHO ?

If God choses who goes to heaven & who goes to hell, what happens if someone who has been good all his life is not one of the chosen?

In this scenario

- if there is free will : the person chose to be good and yet God doesnt let him into paradise = injustice

-if there isnt free will , God "obliged" someone to be bad

Oh no another k-pop and k-drama fan ;) A friend of mine actually obliged me to watch some with her, and frankly it wasnt so bad, violence and sex scene were minimal with intresting plot, the only problem is that for me pretty much all asians look the same so ....

Thats I believe one of the biggest dissagrements between catholics and protestants, there is no way that free will and God's election exist

I should have done more math in highschool, I don even understand the question :(

At this point the whole story with the porn star seems to be a "sore loser" move from the left, unless they arrive to present the story in such a way that it would dissuade the "ultra christian" faction inside the republican party to not vote for Trump again, but I sincerely doubt it.

find hardly threatening a guy with his pants down ^^ but I guess I'll just have to find th video to understand .

Good question ! I'm not really sure, but if I had to bet I'd say there arent going to be any black riots, probably just the usual anti police/ extreme left morons

But still, shooting a guy because he had his pants down and refused to obey an order? I dunno how is the training of the american police but there seems to be too many screw upps that could have been easily avoided

Many things could have been done to save the Titanic: if the captain had ordered to ram the iceberg head on instead of trying to avoid it only two compartments would have been breached and the Titanic could have continued its journey safely

(But still admire the irony: it was sad at the time that not even God could sink that shi^p, and yet it sunk because of freakin icecube!!! ;)

I agree, even more problems would arise when men would win most sporting events .

Dogs dont have morals, they act according to their instincts .

Well in wester culture not showing your face has always been suspicious, I would not believe or trust someone who doesnt show his face to me, and nowadays it is even more suspicious since it allows you to hide your face from security cameras

So yes! Banning burkas is a good idea! (its already been done in France and other european countries)

100% correct! .

Sure but thats in the US, in France killings and taking of hostages are a little more rare. Well to be honest they have been a litle less rare since the morons at the government decided to open the borders

In France we make this dish called "tartare de boeuf" you should try it, it tastes damn good and fits your caveman agenda ;)

In Stargate Atlantis there was an alien base at the north pole, its probably still there .

Sorry but I cant see any of your arguments, I just see some whining about Andy...

Its against the rules to make debates wich are not in the form of a question, as it is against the rules to personnally attack people. Do you want to know why? Its is to avoid utterly stupid and pointless debates such as this one.

"Andy doesn't know the difference between science and religion"

As debators what do you expect us to do when we see the title of such a "debate"? There is no debate to be had, you are just throwing out your opinions without backing them upp without any kind of evidence. A user of this website once compared people who do such things as "monkeys who throw shit at each other" , the image is stricking and fits perfectly

Here is a usefull link on how to debate, please read it:

https://www.wikihow.com/Perform-Well-in-a-Debate

Dunno what debate youre talking about, but maybe its because you were not following the rules he specified? This debate doesnt follow the rules either btw:

-1. All debates must be written in the form of a question. If you do not, I will take the liberty to change those which I see are statements into questions.

-3. No attacks on members. You may post debates and arguments that attack public figures, but you may not post a debate or argument attacking another member. Do it once and you will be warned. Do it twice and you will be banned.

Go read the rules and have a nice day

I'm not sure its the republican party as a whole who is against abortion but rather the christian part of it. But nonetheless I think you are right some christians are real hipocrytes (spelling?) on the question of abortion; publicly they are against it but when no one is looking they dishonor their faith

Great news! Thank you very much! May this be the beginning of a new era of prosperity for CD

The problem with that reasoning is that the fetus didnt just pop out of nowhere like some kind of virus, it was due to consensual hanky panky stuff (rape cases etc put aside of course) If you cant assume the consequences of an action, just dont do it!

And even after birth the baby is reliable on its mother for sustenance

Well we havent reported you ^^

No seriously even you must admit that the whole Nom/Q etc got a bit out of hand

A) I have two younger sisters Charlotte and Noémie, dunno if that was what you meant ^^

B) I taught basic english and latin to kids, and advanced french to adults

C) I gave blood a year and a half ago, and apparently my blood has an unusual quantity of platelets so every 3 or 4 months they call me to give blood and offer me a meal

G) In highschool I made a story telling group, I couldnt read books to them because since it was a catholic school I would have had every book to be approved by the school and it would have taken an eternity to get the group going

I) I am on the administration council, most of my job consists of stopping the pseudo communist group

Ahhh Andy is doing something? Thats really great! Long live CD

I have been elected at the administration council of my university, and I am currently working on "building" a free lawyier clinic for students.

I highly doubt the authenticity of those numbers .

Just shut upp nom .

Depends on the age, but most of the time yeah. You wouldnt even imagine all the crazy stuff I would have done if my mother wasnt there to stop me.

Sounds like a good idea, but the problem is that wouldnt know where to put their money; for example everybody would put their money into healthcare and education while not giving a cent to research or the military

Good luck with that, they have zero reasons for dropping their nukes

Socialist that didnt like russia ok. but Hitler cerainly didnt love Islam

Its a voodoo doll!!! She was controlling Obama all along!!!

Sorry, I havent read the book, cant help you on that one

Good luck!!!

Tonight I made myself an omelette with cheese,mushrooms, potatoes and cream; then bread and cheese (roquefort) . Dunno if its healthy, but I'm not fat yet, so far so good?

Cmon dodgeball is the greatest game ever, I am serious .

Ewald died in 2013, philipp in 2008 .

I know a little moustached german guy that would love this .

Jewish wisdom on money? I'll take that ;) .

What troubles me is what exactly exploded if there wasnt anything there to begin with .

Because he doesnt know how to swim, is missing an arm, is in a wheelchair... There can be any number of reasons really

Pickle tickling .

Oh yeah I forgot the "as a punihment", thats obviously a terrible idea .

Admiro tu nivel de espanol, es increible ^^ .

What do you mean by better than that? For a crime there must be a just punishment, giving a death sentence to a serial killer or a pedophile seems justified to me

You wont be tortured and put to death because you knocked something off a shelf at your local supermarket ;)

Torture is sometimes necessary, all countries practice it but few admit to it. What would you do if you caught a terrorist who planted a bomb somewhere and refused to reveal the location?

You would have the choice between torturing a murderer, or letting innocents die. For me the choice is already done

I'm not sure refusing the execution be carried out on a plazza in the middle of town is hiding it. It can be done inside a prison and everyone who wants to can come and watch, there should also be an announce on tv that X is being executed for X crime

I'm for execution and torture (only in the cases where it is justified) but certainly not publicly, it wont help at all. You'll just give ideas to mentally ill who will see it as the opportunity to have 10 minutes of fame

I did but I'm not sure here is the place to ask that type of question ^^ .

Just read about this course on wikipedia

Why not use it? Many bad people have invented good things; its not as if this course taught you how to be a child molester. From what I understood the course was about discipline and being yourselfn where is the wrong in that?

I think Russia is to thank for kicking ISIS's ass, but if he convinces NK to drop their nuclear weapons then yeah he deserves a Nobel peace prize

I can understand why americans dont like russians, but dont try to push your hatred of them on the rest of the world

"But the russians will cause a nuclear apocalypse!!" Please, you americans are the only nation in the world that have used nuclear weapons

So fuck you

Yeah sorry I couldnt give a very profound answer last time, I had tests and stuff to do

Democracy clearly isnt working out in my country, after the monarchy fell we have been through a succession of regimes that just dont work out. A clear proof of this is that todays republic is the 5th (and there are talks about making a 6th one)

Having a hereditary ruler would give us a continuity in our political agenda, because currently each time a leftist president does something, the next rightist president cancels it, and vice versa.

France isnt like the US where people vote for one party and stick to it for years, they vote for one side and then the other, which is bringing us nowhere

There is also another problem: since nothing is happening in french politics people became completly uninterested in them, in the last presidential elections 43 million people could vote and 35% or 40% didnt, this has been happening for years and is getting worse, each president is getting more illegitimous than the last

The people have no idea who to vote for, they just follow the media blindly, the candidate who was going to win last years elections was destroyed by the media for a minor fraud, while he was an accomplished man with experience.

Our actual president is a kid who won the elections without even presenting a program!!!!! At the time if you asked people who they were going to vote for they would reply Macron, and if you asked them why they said it was because he was young and dynamic

I could talk about this subject for hours, but here is my conclusion: the french people are too fkn dumb to vote

I am for an absolute hereditary monarchy!

Vive la France et vive le roi!

I'm getting more and more fed upp with this website, do you guys still believe in it? Or should we search for another website?

Dude you have 18 points, youre supposed to be new to this website. And yet you are comparing dermot to antrim, while pretending not to know who is nom

You are not fooling anyone, fuck off

Can you do something about this ?

Thanks for sharing dude !

If you dont mind me asking, why were you in there ?

Hard to answer this question without writing a whole book (in France the roman empire is one of the most important things we study), but the answer can be summed upp to:

-During the monarchy: a bit early to tell

-During the republic: socially left wing, economically right wing

-During the empire: three periods: 1) capitalist 2) "soft" socialism 3) hardcore communist dystopia

Oh yeah I didnt think of that, my bad. Its a shame though you cant share your artwork because of morons .

Yup that was creepy as hell .

I f I remember correctly Dermot you are an artist, would you mind posting some of your work? I'd be ahppy to see it

The only thing I find weird is that it wasnt @Jolie who made this "debate" .

Well Nom, we finally aggree on something! Cheers !

Me directly no, but it will hurt the generations to come .

And you got it .

One thing is for sure we are great at creating stuff to destroy other people .

I come from a only boys school, and from what I can see here are the main benefits:

-boys work a lot better if there are no girls around, easier to concentrate without being in a relationship

-since we dont know many girls we have a tendency to be a lot more polite and caring (witch the ladies seem to like)

After not being around girls until university, there are tipically two kind of guys:

-the guys that will date pretty much any girl and have 3 girlfriends a year

-the guys that are like: "I have waited until now, why not wait for the right one?"

He had the ability to souround himself with very talented men, was probably the best speaker I have ever listened to. Was batshit crazy and was a terrible artist

Hi I'm catholic and I dont know much about protestants but it doesnt seem to make sense: why would God give us the right to only exist in hell?

There is no predestination, we are all born equal in front of God and our actions and toughts determine if we go to hell or heaven

Nope .

Apparently yes

Little side note: a few weeks ago in Paris two people were convicted of cannibalism, they attacked a homeless guy and ate his ears ans his lips.

I'm pretty sure they werent french

I'm student, enough said .

In itself technological progress is always good, its what we do with it that is often wrong, the problem resides with the people, not with the technology

Just a question about accents: is it true that american girls love the french accent? (I will maybe travel to the US this summer, so I gotta be ready)

For the sake of entertainement I googled the 73 gender list, I advise you to do the same its hilarious, I couldnt stop laughing

After my own observation I can say there is a wage gap: not because women are payed less because they are women but because they work jobs they like even if they dont pay much (women do mostly "social" work: history, litterature, languages etc) while often men dont consider if they like the job or not, they just look at the salary

I have said it before and I will say it again:

We abosolutely need more lucid politicians like Jolie running the world, things would be so much better, she is like a super AI: capable of learning from everything, just look at the brilliant idea that has just sparked in her while watching the Matrix

I wonder what wondrous ideas might spawn in her mind while watching Disney movies

What do you call a safe place ?

We both agrree that war is horrible, but on this matter I dont think the nationalist team would go down without a fight

Nomenclature? Is that you again ?

Damn, when I was a kid my mom told me she played with my legos while I was at school, maybe it wasnt a joke

;)

Sounds fine to me !

I'd like to join (although I cant debate about science stuff, but history and philosophy are totally my thing)

will nomenclature be allowed in these "debates"? .

Werent you a mom? When do you get the time to play video games?

My favorite video game: the whole total war series (medieval 2 is the best though)

My favorite board game is chess (I think im somewhat good at it? Or the rest of my family sucks)
