you got it sugar. but to be fair i don't know that we've ever had a debate.

Debate:

A: My point is X.

B: You are incorrect. Y is actually accurate because these three reasons: __________.

A: Ah, I see what you're saying, but reasons 1 and 2 don't stand up because of __________, so therefore your idea is incorrect.


and it follows in that pattern until an agreement is reached or all the evidence has been laid out but no minds have changed.

Radar's Debate Format:

A: I feel the government should ___________.

Radar: You're wrong, the constituition says ___________.

A: I disagree with your interpretation of the document.

Radar: You're wrong, the constituition says ___________!

A: I think the flaw in your reasoning is _____________.

Radar: You're wrong, the constituition says ___________.

A: Have you considered ___________?

Radar: You're wrong, the constituition says ___________. And you are stoopid compared to me. I rule, you suck and you even smell bad too. And if you don't agree I'll kill a border patrol agent for carrying out illegitimate orders and I'll be right cuz you suck!!!

A: WTF?

Radar: See? I win all debates due to my superior intellect and education.




Now, would you care to tell me I'm wrong about your debate style? or will it just be easier to say you've read a document with the One True Understanding ingrained upon your soul so everything and everyone else is irrelevent?
