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.
If it pleases the community we should build a giant cock tower in the shape of a dick as well. We should also put boobs on the dick and a vagina between the balls which will serve as the entrance.
We need to go back to the Middle Ages to create your Marxist utopia. It'll be much easier.
Marxism is a system for the future, capitalism is a system for the 18th century. I am not the one advocating a system that is one step away from feudalism.
No.... No, I didn't say that.. A statue of Jesus, even if artfully done can't be displayed on public property because, in the final analysis, it's RELIGIOUS. In the same vein, there's NO legal distinction between POLITICS and ART..
Look... I'm sorry you don't understand the Constitution. It's really easy.. It doesn't use any big words and it's NOT hard to understand - UNLESS you don't LIKE what it says and are thereby confused..
Confederate monuments celebrate the Confederacy.. As I've said, the Lenin statue celebrates art.
I use MYSELF as a guide.. I'm NOT a communist, so I don't RELATE the statue to communism, and I certainly don't support the MAN Lenin. I suggest the people who want religious or confederate symbols displayed is because they do BELIEVE in the causes those symbols represent..
Nonetheless, even though it's a fine piece of art, I suppose there are a few Seattleites who BELIEVE in the cause Lenin represents, so I'd be fine if it was moved to a museum..

Freedom of speech. I am tired of the left denying Christian rights.........................................................................................
Freedom of speech. I am tired of the left denying Christian rights.
Freedom of speech protects my right to say that christianity is a primitive, retarded belief system with no basis in reality and christians should not be allowed to reproduce or brainwash their children with their insane beliefs.
And Christians also have the right to free speech, you fuckwit.
Your beliefs are objectively false and should not be spread or condoned, especially when they are being taught to impressionable young children as if they are fact. You are holding back the progress of humanity, that is not free speech, it's brainwashing.
Prove it, and I have the right to free speech, you hypocrite.
God cannot exist because of cause and effect, a sentient being (especially one that is as advanced as God) cannot simply spawn out of nothing or create itself before it even exists.
You don't have the right to free speech, in America there is plenty of censorship. Hate speech is illegal and businesses don't have to respect your free speech when you're on their property.
And you do that by denying Christians their 1st amendment rights.
Shut the fuck up you waste of oxygen. Brainwashing your children to believe in your religion is not free speech, it's an infringement upon their freedom to think for themselves and learn critical thinking skills.
You deserve a bullet, right between the eyes.
You deserve to have a rabid chipmunk let loose on your nutsack until it nibbles off your manhood.
And you do that by denying Christians their 1st amendment rights. You deserve a bullet, right between the eyes.
Fact Machine nailed it. I understand and appreciate that you have mental health problems, so I am patient with you, but nevertheless you do not get to indoctrinate your offspring into a damaging fantasy and then claim the moral high ground. That's stupid. Abusing your own children does not give you the moral high ground.
The statue of Lenin is in Russia. I don't give a rat's ass what THEY do with it. Jesus and commandments statues ARE art, AND allowed by the Constitution, but, should be on church or private property, not on public lands. Statues of Mohammad or the Qur'an, or any other religion, should also be on private or "church" property. What's the problem? To each, his/her own.
The statue of Lenin or a Swatstika would be intimidating in a public square in my town, as would some other things. The SCOTUS spoke for ALL Americans about those things.
Jesus was in Europe for centuries, that's ONE reason they had so many problems …. actually not Jesus, but the church that USED him. "That is why" THEY "had so many problems" with those fleeing "religious persecution" and over taxation BY those churches. Problems come when you mix church and state … as our founders knew … from experience!
