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.
We are sorry to see you leave. it is our hope that you find the time to come back now and then to participate. The only way this site grows is by having many diverse people coming together to share opinions (common or not).
I just don't have the time hun I am travelling in a few months too and that will take years lol. But I really did enjoy getting to know you, you're a great person and I pray the best for your future.
To Silas (may the Lord bless all your days), Joe and Hellno - you seem like really decent people - good luck in the future. Imigrone and Casper - I'm sad you didn't respond but still I wish you the best in life and hopefully will see you in heaven when the time comes :) Thewayitis - hands down, best guy I've ever met online. Keep fighting - you have more fight in you than all the atheists here put together. To all the down-voters who don't dispute - get a life you efffing losers. Bohemian - get the hint, I don't debate assholes. Savvy? Nautilus - you're a cool debater, I enjoyed our discussions. Farewell CD, I enjoyed my stay.
I decided to do both - with the condition that I won't have time to participate in large debates but still I will have time to voice my opinions and read debates as others do. I will tell you about my travels as I am on them; I will be travelling for the next few years so its more going to be a lifestyle as opposed to a holiday of sorts.
No, I use that particular phrase assuming it will call you back which implies that you are a normal woman.
Maybe we don't have the same definition of the word slut. For me, a slut is a woman that will screw anyone at the drop of hat for free. Is that your definition?
A normal woman wouldn't mind looking at a naked man. It doesn't involve screwing anyone for free. If watching naked men made normal women sluts, then there are a lot more sluts out there than I previously thought.
BTW, the slut is a word most often used by women to describe other women. Men don't normally consider women sluts. Probably because they are too busy considering how lucky they are to have found her ;)
LOL, no its just that you used that particular phrase as opposed to something like 'no, please come back and keep debating' or something, but instead you thought that referring to your nudity would be the right call to bring me back lmao. No matter, it made me laugh which I am sure was your innocent intention ;) You are right in your end comment by the way, I haven't yet heard any of my male friends referring to a woman as a slut - the closest term they use is "easy" lol but never "slut" or 'whore'. Hmm, interesting.. :)
Hmm, I am very passionate about my faith and love to defend it but since I have not seen you on many religious debates I will assume (correct me if I'm wrong) that you are not so passionate in the same area. I love to debate moral issues and cases such as if x is wrong/right and if so then why/why not and should it be/not be. It really just depends, there is not much that I am disinterested in so I am cool with whatever you suggest :) Sudoku is cool, I must confess I find it rather boring but the last three numbers before completion really are rather exciting ;)
She is calling you that because you downvoted her a lot without leaving a comment, she was going to report you to have your account terminated but I ask her not to because people are going to do it anyway.
Except I never down-voted her. Not once. You can click on my points (next to my user name) and see for yourself. Billie is just jumping to conclusions. Just because I dispute her arguments doesn't mean I'm the one down-voting them.
No you're an asshole because of things you said which made debating with you negative and a complete and utter drag. I don't have time for back and forth insults so get off my back and go bother someone else :)

Debating your deeply held personal beliefs is not always going to be a positive experience, especially if you don't have very sound reasoning for holding those beliefs. However this hardly makes myself an asshole. If you are going to debate religion, prepare to have your beliefs come into question. This is the nature of the beast.

Back and forth? I have not insulted you save to say that one of your statements was foolish and your scoffing childish. I think this exchange pretty much sums up our debate:
BILLIE: "LOL, I'd like to see you try knock Christianity down with "reason". Go on, I dare you - it will be rather a funny thing to watch as you fall flat on your face."
BOHEMIAN: "Why are all of your responses so child-like? As a matter of fact, I can show you the logical and evidential holes in your religion, and when I do, I get angry responses from people like you..."
This was the extent of my "ass-hole-ishness". Noting that your response elicited mine. I guarantee you will find much much worse on this site. Nowhere did I call you any names, nowhere did I say you were stupid for believing X, Y, and Z. I think you are making a huge fuss over nothing.
ohkaaaaayyyyyy, i guess i must be very silly to never have noticed u yet. but i guess being Silas's favorite u must have been a gr8 debater... n my only suggestion to u is, dun leave forever... do come back asap, i mean i did that too, i know m not a big lady, n i may not even be mature enough yet to say all o it, but this is one site u cnt get rid of... its an addiction n don't stop yourself from gettin addicted. i hope, although, that u have fun wherever u go, n that u may be able to return soon, n accept my ally request. :) looking forward to seein u back here goodbye fr now :)
LOL, seriously, if I wanted sympathy I'd say something like "ooww I just fell over, tell me I'm beautiful" or something gay like that. I don't seek sympathy when I love my life. Furthermore, the way you "see it" means nothing because you also "see" God being in support of pedophiles and their love for little girls.
ok if you weren't looking for sympathy, i was wrong. But it think God supports the good in everyone, even pedophilies. pedophiles are not bad people, they are just people that other people should be concern about. They never molested children. There is a difference between pedophiles and child molestors.

The kind of concern I have for these bastards involves knives, major levels of agony and the end result being castration. Then I would probably just kill the bastard lol.
They never molested children. There is a difference between pedophiles and child molestors.
A pedophile's fantasy would be to 'go all the way' with his victim so yes, molestation often comes into it.
But it think God supports the good in everyone, even pedophilies
There is no good in pedophiles, no good. God does not support evil. Read. Your. Bible. Stop talking about God when you clearly know nothing about Him or the bible.
I think saying that you were willing to kill a child molestor is wrong and satanic. Yes, i don't blame you for thinking it becuase nobody deserves to die and that includes child molestors and Hitler. Maybe i am thinking wrong, but i see the good in everyone. If i see a child molestor about to be beat up by you, i will stop you. But that does not mean i support the pedophile. i think it is injustice to hurt somebody. You are no different than a child molestor if you hurt them.
I am not here to argue with you angrily. I think you are forgetting the "what if" scenario. What if God told you the love was pure between two people. The reason why i say that is because everybody is different. There may be 12 year old that may be more mature than you think. Maybe there has not been a twelve year old girl that experience true love in the entire world, but there CAN be one. I believe in all possibilities but i know that there are some things that are not possible. I can't grow wings lol. But what if God told you. Not the fact that God will never tell you. He may never tell you, but what if he told you the love was pure. Would you still allow it? I use to read the christian bible. I view of God is that he is all benevolent and he wouldn't hurt child molestors or rapists. I believe that infact if was to turn human and see a gang fight upon a child molestor, he would come in and help him. Because he is God and everbody is his children. I believe that there CAN be a child that can be experience true love, but it is unlikely becuase of the history of violence in this world. Do you think i am thinking wrong? I think that God can create whoever he wants. And he can create a twelve year old child that can learn love. Look at Issac Newton and other people who acheive above the normality minds in this world.
I came back! I am unable to take part in large debates but that isn't such a bad thing as my fellow debaters had stopped debating me anyhow. Still, I have the time to voice my opinions etc. I may be unable to access a computer at times just to let you know but mostly I will have my laptop with me so it should be ok. P.S. thanks for the sweet comments you guys - they were unexpected and rather lovely :)
Thank you for coming back and participating on your terms! It is great to have any and all join in and even a little participation from you is better than none at all.
