Add a debate class to that and I'm all for it.

Really.

Okay, two NEW and MANDATORY classes for ALL high school graduates.

#1. Debate (at least be able to SPOT the fallacies).

#2. "The Tyranny of Words" (at least be able to spot the blab words).

Once we can cut through the bullshit, we can start to change.

ahh... - (bepatient) - (38) - June 28, 2002, 01:13:33 PM EDT

You can't just say it, can you? "God" == "Allah" - (Brandioch) - (37) - June 28, 2002, 01:23:56 PM EDT

That statement is false. - (imric) - (32) - June 28, 2002, 01:32:18 PM EDT

"God" != "god" - (Brandioch) - (31) - June 28, 2002, 01:52:12 PM EDT

Uh. Vishnu is a God. - (imric) - (30) - June 28, 2002, 01:55:15 PM EDT

"a God". Pay careful attention to the "a" there. - (Brandioch) - (29) - June 28, 2002, 02:06:15 PM EDT

So what? - (imric) - (28) - June 28, 2002, 02:23:18 PM EDT

Have you asked a Muslim this? - (imric) - (26) - June 28, 2002, 02:56:34 PM EDT

Allah is to Muslims as __________ is to Christians. - (Brandioch) - (25) - June 28, 2002, 03:18:58 PM EDT

Insist that God is a name all you want. - (imric) - (8) - June 28, 2002, 04:31:30 PM EDT

To quote you "look in the Bible". - (Brandioch) - (6) - June 28, 2002, 04:59:35 PM EDT

Nope. Wrong again. - (imric) - (5) - June 28, 2002, 05:01:21 PM EDT

Look up "circular reference". - (Brandioch) - (4) - June 28, 2002, 05:39:17 PM EDT

Confusing levels of reference - (imric) - (3) - June 28, 2002, 05:45:21 PM EDT

Why am I wrong? Because the Bible says so. - (Brandioch) - (2) - June 28, 2002, 05:56:27 PM EDT

Oh, I can prove you wrong - (imric) - (1) - June 28, 2002, 06:13:43 PM EDT

How did it get printed if it's a sin to print it? - (Brandioch) - June 28, 2002, 07:19:48 PM EDT

If it begins with a G (not g), then yes, it IS "a name"! - (CRConrad) - July 1, 2002, 10:18:21 PM EDT

Fill in the blank - (Silverlock) - (12) - June 28, 2002, 04:13:47 PM EDT

Cool. I'll use "Tetragrammaton". - (Brandioch) - (11) - June 28, 2002, 04:51:54 PM EDT

ROFL - I suppose "Him" is His name then , too? - (imric) - (1) - June 28, 2002, 05:00:29 PM EDT

Now you ARE manufacturing data. - (imric) - (10) - June 28, 2002, 02:50:36 PM EDT

Ok. Insist on 'winning' this 'debate'. - (imric) - (6) - June 28, 2002, 04:01:09 PM EDT
