[Vote] for the champion in the Coliseum
Posted: 2009-08-23 09:36pm
Simple: vote for the person you'd prefer to see debate me in the Coliseum on presuppositionalism. Poll runs 10 days, although I hope we'll have a consensus before then.
Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

Of course, my vote was a throw away as I had no doubt you would win. Honestly, though, I wasn't expecting this good of a showing with the votes for IC. I'm hoping other people voted for him for the same reason I did at least.Alyrium Denryle wrote:Shouldnt we be striving for... competent combatants rather than "Lulz" when it comes to the flavian amphitheater?General Schatten wrote:I want to see Chicken convert to Islam and then to Deism and then back to Wicca in the course of the debate.
That is when you pick a non-technical (but still challenging) topic with one of our mid-range debaters. You dont put the poor kid against Surlethe with a very technical topic when the object of said Surlethe is to see how well he can defend a position that is weak against anyone who knows the material (which the boy does not).Cpl Kendall wrote:I actually voted for IC in the hopes that debating in the Coliseum would foster some sort of sense of logical/rational thought in the guy.
