Killing 1 person to save 100 people would be a progress because 99 people would be saved instead of letting the 100 people die. Obviously there was progress in the ancient times, or they wouldn't be considered ancient.

Religious doctrine is extremely influential, and would be effective material. However, doctrine doesn't necessarily mean books like The Bible or the Qur'an itself. Doctrine is defined as a code of beliefs or principles. If parents found out that their Jewish child was learning about how Christ is their savior from a Christian teacher, conflicts would surely arise.

This is true, but with the education system set up the way it is now, it would be quite impossible to analyze every single student in a way that would accurately measure their learning ability and knowledge. This is done partially in free response questions, such as on the SAT and AP exams, but a free response question covering material for an entire high school career or even a single course would be too lengthy to be accurately scored in a reasonable amount of time.

By definition, yes it is prostitution. It is their profession to engage in sex for money. Both actors are for hire, even though one person is not paying the other. Essentially, the consumers of the pornographic material are paying the actors to engage in sexual acts, even though it isn't with the consumer personally. Having sex for fun isn't prostitution because neither party is gaining monetary benefit (getting paid).

Studying religious doctrine for the sake of religion would be absurd, and would impose certain religions into the students. It is true that religious doctrine (such as the Bible) is one of the three most influential sources of literature (along with Shakespeare and mythology) and provides valuable literary information. If studied from a literary perspective, it would be effective.

However, this would inevitably lead to conflicts amongst parents and the school board, no matter how the religion was studied. School should have optional electives such as religion studies, but it should never be reqiured.

If you gain knowledge from the debate, you win on a personal level, regardless of your opinion.

Very logical argument. Well Stated.

Google is more effective, if only for ease of use. It's a simple efficient website that takes far less time to actually make a search that Yahoo does. Even though the layout is simple enough, it also contains many of the features that Yahoo has, only in a more simple, user friendly design.

Unless the one person was of great importance, it would be logical to save the hundred people. By not killing the one person, you are indirectly killing the hundred by negligence.

That, however, is a general answer to a general question. Factors could obviously play into this situation that could change my answer.
