• Let me remind you this debate is not about whether the Roswell Incident was real, it is whether it was a government coverup. The Incident may have been "media hype" but the government NONE THE LESS tried to cover it up! I will explain this in my next point. It would seem…
• Resolved that the Roswell Incident Was A Government Coverup. First I will introduce evidence to this debate, then explain how this evidence implies a government cover up. But First, some backround history: The Roswell UFO Incident was the alleged recovery of extra-terrestrial…

• Thank you for your timely response. A few points: I do not agree that in order to prove that someone is superior they have to 'fight it out'. My opponent suggested that people engage in violent confrontations to prove superiority, but this is not true; debate is a prime example…

• Sorry about that. I had good arguments put in and was really looking forward to this debate, especially with con's stance, but I've been busier than expected. Hopefully someday we can have a rematch and real debate about this. My appologies.

• You can't say that Jesus did great things if you don't believe that he is the Messiah and Son of God. The only alternative is that he's delusional or a straight up liar. Furthermore, If the Christian religion is false, Then Jesus and his followers are cultists. My example…
• What I'm saying is that 1 CE is still the estimated year of birth of the man (and to some belief's, The Holy Messiah) named Jesus. It is, I believe, A proven fact that such a man existed, Even if he didn't perform miracles or anything. So under the scientific/non-Christian…

• Exactly! People are looking too much into it. It is simple. There is proof that it happened anyway. I highly doubt that they were captured or anything like that. I also could see if they crash landed on a different island but them getting captured or them being spys is not very…

• well you see, if we get some acid bath in there, the mongol army would be sure to rout in terror, however it is improbable that there would even be an organized army, seeing as Genghis is dead, and Niki Minaj has absolutely no military capabilities i think its safe to say you…
• hahahah i admit Nicki Minaj was funny, right so this has kinda gone down the crapper since i cant argue anything until you've picked some kind of military force, unless you plan of sending generic pop stars to the battle lol

• Sorry for the inconvenience, for my argument I would like to mention that the whole reason of the Ninjas existence is because of the Samurai oppressors. Back in the day of Ninjas and Samurai warriors there was an unfortunate balance of power. The Samurai were treated as kings…

For

• Since Greenland is mostly an island of ice, and Iceland is generally Green throughout the year, I believe Denmark(who controls the territory of Greenland) should meet with Iceland and have the two islands swap names. This way the names can be representative of what they…
• It would likely benefit Iceland's economy then, as they would probably get more tourists if they were named Greenland. Plus, it's about honesty too. It's not honest to call Greenland, Greenland when it's mostly ice, and the same for Iceland.

• Reminder that Con cannot post this round.ADBANDONEDHere, we see that Con has used as an argument that "literally every" navy has adbandoned the battleship in round one. After constant proof this is not true, he has reverted to "it's not important." While it is up to the voters…
• AdbandonedSimilarly, Con cannot decisvely refute that the Kirov IS going to be revisited, or that Iowa was revisited before. Secondly, Con engages in the badwagon effect - Con can argue all he wants that the Armoured Car was dumb because pre-WW1 armies were motorized but it…

• ok. he could've been hung over, but all a hangover does is give you a raging headache, it doesn't impair your senses to a degree that drunkness does. Your idea is good, but her plane hasn't been found any of the islands surrounding howland
• i have thorough evidence on their last gas, direction, and speed records before she crashed and according to it, no drastic changes were made indicating that he more than likely wasn't hung over

For

• My opponent posted a comment in a debate which I have previously done of this same topic, so I will gladly challenge him to the topic. I will be just copy-pasting my arguments from that debate (it was FF'ed) so R2 will go pretty quick. R1 for acceptance, we will just use the…
• C1: THE NAZCA LINES Your question assumes the thing you're trying to prove. They are not runways, nor was that the intention of the Peruvians. This is not a sufficient rebuttal. The fact remains that it can only be seen from the sky. A more reasonable estimate is that these…

• Con has violated the round-breakdown outlined in R1 by posting counter-arguments in R2, the round meant for his prima facie case. As such, he has forfeited the conduct point. Since Con barely provided a prima-facie case of his own last round, the only way for con to have even a…
