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.
Mhm mhm. It is a known fact that everything happens inside the brain and since everything happens inside people (brains are in people) then people should be identified as everything.
I don't expect your egotistical ass to even give it a 2nd thought, but I figured l would try to attack your individualistic character trait by lumping you in with the simple minded. Though, I did hope for a non generic response...Oh well, .
No, of course not. If we are everything, that means everything else is nothing, and if the human race were to go extinct, that would mean there is nothing left, which is false.
What you say is right (or, that is, you're right to say everything that you've said). What says a lot is the fact that politicians never ask this question - at least not in public.
Could it be, that irrespective of whether people are "everything" (so you are the history of Utah, for example, and I am why The terminator is the more perfect film than Robocop), the point is to ask the question, as part of the bigger picture of "creating reality"?
What did you feel, reading the question the first time?
The point isn't literally (people are different - or are they?), but the principle that because all human beings' right to life is equal - and the global status quo equates to violence and war - the logical solution is to just publicly identify all human beings as everything (even if not strictly true). Thanks for participating.
Hmm, I'm still not quite sure what you mean by 'everything'. Is it that because we are all humans, regardless of origin, as a species then we are considered 'everything' of the human race? That is all I can interpret from your comment.
"Everything", here, is completely independent of the human species; human species doesn't exist, in the context of this question - just intelligence.
All life forms could be categorized as everything (the only difference being between humans and everything else the power to "reference").
The "human species" would become the elephant's identity - and vice versa.
Everything would become literally everything. The spectators of an Arsenal match would become Sabrina the Teenage Witch - and Sabrina the Teenage Witch would become the wife of Rameses II.
Any human being who's currently living would be publicly identified as "everything" (and at that, an arbitrary list of reality's facets would be associated with them - you'd have a list, I'd have a list, Neve Campbell would have a list and so on).
Quantity wouldn't become a problem, in terms of every human being having a list - if one human being has say The Terminator (the 1984 science fiction film), as one of their facets, another human being could always have something like "The Terminator is better than Robocop" - and then another "Why The Terminator is better than Robocop".
So these 'lists', are they what defines a person as everything or is it that I would have a list of what everyone else is?
And why would it be that, using the example you used, The Terminator is an aspect of someone's list, yet it doesn't relate to them on a human basis? Apart from the fact that they may have watched the film, which many others probably have, why is it that that person uses it and not someone else?
Okay, well give me a question that I can give my opinion for. This 'everything' question is ambiguous and I'm not sure what you are aiming to discover.
While it would certainly save time and people could quit griping about being this or that; someone some where, would still gripe because they couldn't claim to be of an oppressed group
