User talk:Philip J. Rayment/How to debate

From Conservapedia

Philip,

May I suggest a separate section on defining terms? One major pitfall of inexperienced debaters is failing to do so, and this frequently crops up in debates about evolution. I have seen any number of debates where both sides were using the word "evolution" in completely different contexts, and no headway was possible as a result. You have a discussion of this early in your essay, but I think it's an important enough concept to merit a distinct section. --Benp 10:56, 1 September 2008 (EDT)
