CreateDebate is a social debate community built around ideas, discussion and democracy.
If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.
To learn more about the CreateDebate scoring system, check out the FAQ.
When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument.
If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
Yup. It is a scientific fact that certain types of music can induce blood flow and promote healing or do the opposite
Proof? Music, you can hear... deaf people can't hear. Music means nothing to them. The vibrations argument is lame to say the least... I can cause different vibrations that they might enjoy in some sick way but it has nothing to do with actual hearing.
First of all... I don't click links on CD. I don't need a new computer virus today. Second of all... it's the internet! Duh! I don't care about your links as they mean nothing.
Deaf people are deaf and for you to suggest otherwise... that they enjoy vibrations as much? Please.
Deaf people don't enjoy music in the same way that we do. Sure, they can feel the vibrations if it's loud enough, but they can't hear the lyrics and I assume that they'd have trouble differentiating between the instruments.
And I got to back up Hellno on this one... calling him ignorant is ridiculous considering you thought al Qaeda was a person and that Britain wasn't part of the UK.
Can a deaf person understand music? I don't think so. They could feel the vibrations from music the same way that they could feel vibrations from cars passing by. The only difference is that there would be a rhythm to the vibrations from music, but what makes music great is not the vibrations. Music revolves around sound and the one thing that deaf people can't experience is sound.
I've heard how calm instrumental music can help a plant grow better, but that has more to do with the science of sound, not personal preference lol. Plants are plants. They don't understand music, just happen to be affected by sound. Scientists have experimented by talking gently to plants (I bet that was funny) and basically came up with the same results.
It's pointless talking to you because it's one sided... you don't listen, you just spout off random crap. Deaf people may enjoy the vibrations music gives off (although I seriously doubt it) but they don't enjoy the music because they can't hear it.... they're enjoying the vibrations, not the music.
Now, go ahead and ignore what I just said and say something else like you always do.
The part of the brain responsible for sensing vibrations is the same part responsible for hearing. Deaf people recieves the same sensations towards any formof music and noise. Hence, Its practically the same
Now unless the question is "Do you like songs?" I would have agreed. But music, thats universal
1. vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear.
2.sound produced by continuous and regular vibrations, as opposed to noise.
I am sure you are aware that we dont hear with our ears but our brain right? If I remember correctly it all depends on what type of deafness as well. You could have conduction hearing loss or sensorineural hearing loss. Are we just talking about absolute deafness?
Sound travels through the ear canal to the ear drum, then through what is referred to as the "middle ear", which then moves fluid through the cochlea and affects the hair cells, which then transmits signals to the auditory nerve in our brains.
Both our ears and our brains are crucial in order for us to hear sound. A vibration is a vibration, it isn't music.

Both our ears and our brains (which is obviously necessary for just about everything we do) are crucial in order for us to hear sound. A vibration is a vibration, it isn't music.
I know all that stuff. However neither one of you guys can be correct since the creator of this debate didn't state the type of hearing loss. You spoke of the "middle ear" but how do we know the hammer, anvil, and stirrup, are the cause (possibly the eardrum too) or if its all sensorineural? So both of you are either correct or both incorrect.
 A vibration is a vibration, it isn't music.
Music:Â vocal or instrumental sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion.
Sound:
1. vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear.
So by definition music is simply vibrations and thus still doesn't make you or Hellno or Centifolio right or wrong. We still haven't identified our variables.
You backed uo Hellno's argument with Centifolio right? His main point was that deaf people can't enjoy music. That was his response to Centifolio's post. Also the type of hearing loss has to be relevant if you are wanting to support Hellno's case because he would be correct if it was conduction hearing loss.
I wasn't kidding when I said they can't enjoy music, just vibrations.
I had an incident not too long ago that left me partially deaf for a couple of months and that sucked! Stick your fingers in your ears and talk... that's basically what I heard. I could barely hear music. I wasn't even completely deaf... it would be so much worse for someone who is. I just can't see how they could enjoy music.

It also depends on frequency to. Place theory and Frequency theory work well to explain why. Place theory more likely.
Music is sound. Sounds are vibrations. These vibrations resonate at multiple frequencies. Deaf people can still enjoy music, but again, this depends on the hearing loss.
In your case a person may still be able to pick up low frequency sounds. Possibly because different places along the basilar membrane may respond to different frequencies. I don't know. It's hard to discuss this topic since there are too many undefined variables.
Why don't you just ask Hellno what kind of hearing loss he was referring to? It might make this a little easier... I guess. I'm pretty certain he was talking about absolute deafness. People who were born deaf and can't hear a thing... but maybe not.
Well that depends on the song. Like house or dance music? Stuff with no lyrics? Just heavy bass? I believe deaf people would enjoy this much better and what level of deafness are we talking about? Partial or absolute?
yea, it put people in the mood to do things or puts people out of stress. it also adds entertainment in our lives so why can you say no to liking music
Justin Bieber can actually sing extremely well, play 3 instruments to grade 8 (piano, guitar and drum kit) and can dance better than most of his pop competitors (although not better than some of his hip-hop ones).
Tony Bennett can sing extremely well, Mariah Carey can sing extremely well he can not. He can sing but he is nothing special vocally, he doesn't have a very broad vocal range or a particularly strong, powerful or resonant voice.
I never said that, you can be a good singer in any genre that involves singing . Christina Aguilera is a Pop artist and is one of the greatest vocalists around today.
There is nobody called Justin Beiber in the music industry today. Justin Bieber is male. Playing 3 instruments to grade 8 makes someone in the top 1% of the human race musically. Thanks for your kind regards. Try harder to debate next time, retard.

First, I don't see what playing instruments has to do with how well he sings. I know it has to do with how good of a musician he is in general, but he's not famous for being a musician, he's famous for singing. Even though he isn't as bad as everyone says, I think saying he's extremely good is a little too much. Also, playing 3 instruments by grade 8 puts him in the top 1% musically? That's way over the top. There are many people who learned more instruments, at a younger age, to a greater extent. 3 instruments is good, but not top 1% good.
He plays 3 instruments at grade 8 level (the only level above grade 8 is called iploma). He is essentially one grade below professional at the instruments. Grade 8 = the grade of musical talent

atleast you agree on that.
Justin Bieber is male.
False.
Playing 3 instruments to grade 8 makes someone in the top 1% of the human race musically.
does it look like i care. and just because a person can play 3 instruments to grade 8 doesn't make them respectable in the society.
Try harder to debate next time, retard.
A retard is a person born with a mental condition and therefore has to work a million times harder to be able to do simple things such as learn and communicate which you most obviously can't in any form of polite manner.
