Beliefs: | Invisible Pink Unicorns are beings of great spiritual power. We know this because they are capable of being invisible and pink at the same time. Like all religions, the faith of the Invisible Pink Unicorn is based upon both logic and faith. We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them. |

My photographs are, on the overall, "better" than my opponents.


As I lost the last debate regarding this topic [1] , I feel that it must be held again for the redemption of my internet photography honor. This time around my opponent and I will post two (2) photographs that we have taken ourselves each round with short descriptions and a criticism of their opponent's previous photographs. My first pair of photographs will take us high up into the mountains of South Korea. Baekundae, the highest peak in Bukhansan National Park [2] offers a spectacula...
My photographs are, on the overall, "better" than my opponent's.


In this debate my opponent and I shall post one (1) picture that we have taken ourselves each round and then include a short description and a criticism of their opponent's previous photograph. The word "better" shall be defined by the voters and they are free to listen to our arguments and choose accordingly. I will start the competition with one of my more recent photographs: http://www.flickr.com/photos/s0m31john/4726106840/ Pictured is a Muscovy Duck [1] relaxing in the grass on...
Christopher Handley Should Be Punished by the US Government For Owning Loli Doujins


I do not want to debate semantics. If you need clarification on the resolution please say so in the comments before accepting this debate. In a recent court case Christopher Handley plead guilty to "mailing obscene matter" and "possession of obscene visual representations of the sexual abuse of children". It is important to also know that their was no "evidence that he also collected or viewed genuine child pornography". As a result of owning only drawings Christopher Handley faces up to 15 y...
The Cost Benefit (CB) of using a microwave exceeds the CB of using a oven in relation to hot pockets


Me and my opponent agreed that the first round should be a simple introduction to ourselves and our arguments. I'm Sean, and I disagree with my good friend John. We were discussing hot pockets, and he suggested I cook it for 45 minutes in the oven when I could cook it for about 3 in the microwave. Our arguments will begin after the first round. In order to prevent some superfluous crap, one rule is that we will be allowed to question each other off debate (on the sidelines) about s...
Resolved: The user known as s0m31john ought to seriously consider reading the Naruto manga.


Greetings. The resolution is exactly as it says. I won't begin arguing until the second round since it hasn't yet occurred to me how I actually wish to argue this. My opponent is free to begin the debate with his first round or wait for me to begin in round 2. It matters little to me. In addition, CON is more than free to define the resolution, but I reserve to the right to argue against his interpretation should I feel that it does not match the intentions of this debate (this is assuming he...
