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.

If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
Taking Jesus and the Bible out of schools, is why we as Americans have so many problems.
You have so many problems because your culture is insane.
And your culture is insane because of Jesus.
People who should be walking around with the capacity to form rational thoughts are instead high on a regressive form of populism based on the literal interpretation of folklore.
And we're insane for turning our backs on Jesus, and the Bible............................................................................................................
It should be taught as an example of how you really, truly, catastrophically, fuck a society up. You take advantage of the human desire for understanding and distort it into a highly contagious mental illness.
Every community in America should have the freedom to choose if they want to start the school day with a Prayer, or display religious symbols during holidays, etc.
But there should never be a Federal law that would force all public schools to "teach" one religion. That would be a Theocracy and something the Constitution does not support.
What would happen if the President of the US were a Muslim and wanted to force every school to teach Islam?
The hypocrisy from the Left, allows for a Federal Government to try and force their secularist LGBTQ agendas onto all public schools, while denying the freedom to have a simple prayer if the people in that community so choose.
The double standards from the Democrat Party are truly pathetic.
A simple prayer at beginning of school days is not teaching a specific religion. It is asking God to protect the children, and giving thanks for the blessings we all enjoy on this earth.
Each child would have the freedom to be silent, or pray along. It forces nothing on the children, and if done in a respectful manner, would not offend kids from other religions.
When we separated any mention of our Christian heritage from ALL communities, we censored the moral values this nation desperately needs today.
Really? Kids don't think about whether they believe in God or not? I spent my entire youth with a morning assembly, every morning, listening to prayers. Did I ever believe in God? No. In fact, at one point I thought if I had to listen to another droll, boring bastard spout a lot of irrelevant nonsense, I might buy myself an AR-15 and make a mess of his suit.
But thankfully they don't sell AR-15's in civilised countries, and I don't approve of massacring civilians.
Instead, I simply stopped attending. After-school detention was preferable.
You once again showed your anger towards Christians, and your sick twisted thoughts of killing them.
So now we all know where your bigotry came from. Poor little seanB had to listen to prayers when he was a child. KILL THOSE EVIL CHRISTIANS!
Like I said, your hateful intolerance for Christian is easy to see. You call their heart felt beliefs and faith a bunch of irrelevant nonsense! Gee I bet you never say those hateful things to Muslims... you mindless bigot!

It's called dark humour, moron. Do you always have such trouble recognizing sarcasm?

Absolutely I do. If there was an Islamic moron on here extolling the virtue of the Quran and showing hatred for homosexuals and Christians, I'd be ridiculing them just the same as I ridicule you.
But honestly, I don't come across that level of Muslim-tard as often as I come across that level of Jesus-tard. It's just a numbers game.
But take my word, when one arrives on this website, I'll certainly give him his fair share of ridicule.
You just called Christians Jesus-tard, and you claim to be the toerant ones? LOL, this is the kind of intolerance I speak to with people on the Left.
You are like clones of each other. All with the same exact bigotry and hatred for Christians, and all with the same exact silence when it comes to Muslims.
Keep trying to say that Christians and Americans want to kill Iranian people you mindless fool!
Tell me when I ever said I wanted to kill Iranians, you monstrous liar!
Why is it you give Iranian people a pass and say it's their Government, not the people?
But when it comes to the American people, you say it is the people and the Government.
Your bigoted intolerance waste my time. Go hug a Muslim while they behead someone for being a Christian.

Some Christians are Jesus-tards, some Americans are 'Muricans, and some Muslims are Islam-tards. Unforunately, Jesus-tards usually can't tell they are Jesus-tards. They are too busy painting all Muslims as Muslim-tards, or shouting "oorah", or generally just eating too much.

The latest data from the 2011 census recorded that 48.4% of Londoners considered themselves to be Christian, 12.39% considered themselves Muslim, 5% Hindu, 1.82% Jewish, 1.5% Sikh, 1% Buddhist and 0.6% Other. A large proportion, 20.73% of respondents, stated that they followed no religion.Jun 14, 2019
LEFTIST are you making reference to people in LONDON ??????????
Despite falling numbers, Christianity remained the largest religion with 59.3% of the population identifying themselves as Christian. Muslims made up the second largest religious group with 4.8% of the population.
LEFTIST MOOSLIME LOVER would you rather see the RELIGION OF ISLAM as the number 1 RELIGIOUS GROUP in the UK ??????????

What you are proposing is the precise opposite of freedom you lamentably evil bastard. You are proposing to forcefully indoctrinate innocent children (whose imaginations are already huge) with a completely unscientific version of reality that contradicts just about every aspect of the modern world. You are just a fucking nasty little failure who lacks the courage to face reality without the prospect of some kind of golden ticket. As pathetic as that is, I defend your right to your own choice. What I will never defend is you proposing to force this same cowardice down the throats of innocent children and label it freedom.

Hello From:
Let's assume your community voted to have Muslim prayers every morning.. Even if done in a respectful manner, would YOU be offended if YOUR kids were forced to stand by while MUSLIM prayers were being spoken???
Of course, you would.. Who the fuck do you think you're kidding?
Hatred for atheists and homosexuals runs in Muslim families buddy. How long have you hated yourself so much that you defend people who hate you more than I ever will?
If you were not such a deceptive joke, you would have already admitted that I support school choice whereby parents can choose a school that does not say a prayer. The vast majority of schools would probably never say a Prayer.
It's called freedom to choose, something you only support when it comes to killing unborn babies for any reason, even late term viable babies!
Our nation is a majority Christian nation, and the likelihood of communities having a majority Muslim population would be rare, and thanks to people like Trump we are not allowing possible Muslim terrorists into our nation as Europe has done. Islam is now Europes's leading religion in many areas!
If that happens here, our nation would be already dead. But your words are what the Left uses as scare tactics to keep Christians from standing up for our religious freedoms guaranteed by the constitution.
Let's assume your community voted to have Muslim prayers every morning.. Even if done in a respectful manner, would YOU be offended if YOUR kids were forced to stand by while MUSLIM prayers were being spoken???
Nope. If I were in a majority Muslim area, I'd respect it or move. If a Christian voted on prayer bothers you, Pakistan is right there with incoming flights. Hop on.
This is just great. The benevolent racist would move out, if his community became mostly Muslim. Except, you wouldn't, though, would you? This is just the hypothetical you use to justify your bigoted expectation to expect Muslims to vacate your community.
Here's an idea. Instead, why don't we all just make our own fucking personal choice about it. Wanna go to a prayer service in school? Great. Go to a prayer service. Wanna not go a prayer service in a school? Then let's not.
