Sorry if this isn't the correct way to get a debate added, but it seems the only way I can spot, not sure where the best place would be for it? [[User:Raggs|Raggs]] 15:19, 25 February 2008 (EST)

We put in 3 presidents from Texas, and had 3 wars; a real brain trust.  Who supplied the monies to put these Texans into office?  We all know the mentality of Texans; shoot first and ask questions later.  We are also suppose to welcome illegals into this country, and help support them, says a man from Texass.  I could care less about your stupid party affiliations; and A-Hole is an A-Hole no matter the party.

:If you are referring in part to the Bush Presidents, I'm afraid you are mis-informed. Neither George H.W. Bush nor George W. Bush could be considered a "Texan" in the sense that they were born in Texas. Both were born in New England, the first in Massachusetts, the second in Connecticut. While it is true that George W. Bush spent much of his childhood in Texas, he also attended Phillips Academy, which is in Andover, MA, and is the same school his father attended, and both are alumni of Yale. Whatever disagreements you may have with their policies, you cannot blame that on "the mentality of Texans." You could just as easily blame it on East Coast Elitism. Or better yet, lay it at the feet of the men who actually made those decisions, not where they came from, or where they went to school.[[User:JEMBenton|JEMBenton]] 13:02, 17 December 2009 (EST)

::::::::We hear that often about the Bible:  "oh, I read it growing up!"  Do people say the same thing about eating vegetables, or physical exercise?  Of course not.  It's what we do each day and each week that counts.  Former professional athletes are in some of the worst physical shape today of anyone, for example, because they mistakenly rely on the exercise they did long ago.

== British political parties misrepresented on Wikipedia ==
 +
 +
Please see my talk page (HenriettaVanLaer)where I have described the recent experience I have of the dreadful bias of Wikipedia. It is simply not an encyclopedia. It is a propaganda tool for socialists, greens and gays. My attempts to inject a tiny bit of fact into their fantasies were firmly censored. I am interested to hear what other users of Conservapedia think. Maybe some of my material would be of interest in your own articles on these topics.
 +
 +
I am also interested to note that you are debating whether there is any successful Muslim democracy. I attempted to raise this question during the recent British election campaign and was treated like a leper!! My own view is that so far, there isn't one and this is a sign we would be foolish to ignore. Such a view is not acceptable to the liberal-left-wing-dominated media which controls discussion most of the time.[[User:HenriettaVanLaer|HenriettaVanLaer]] 11:47, 21 May 2010 (EDT)

I'd like to see a new debate topic added:  [[Debate:Do genuinely saved Christians sin?]].  This was recently a source of disagreement between me and another editor, although only one of us backed up his position with Scripture.  Thanks.  [[User:DavidE|DavidE]] 09:22, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

== Major Recategorization ==
 +
 +
I was looking at the debate topics list and noticing a lot of stuff is wrongly categorized. It looked way too hard to find anything so I took the liberty of doing a massive revamp of the page's categorization structure. Everything should be much neater now and easier to find. I kept the basic structure but added a lot of subcategories to make it very obvious where everything is. I tried to keep everything in about the same order it was already; keeping stuff listed near the top near the top. --[[User:Jzyehoshua|Joshua Zambrano]] 05:37, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

== Atheists and Christians: Unlikely Allies? ==
 +
 +
I had this idea kicking around in my brain for a while about how Atheists and Christians might actually have more in common than meets the eye, and I thought this might be a good topic for discussion and debate.  My reasoning goes something like this: both atheism and modern Christianity are products of Western thought, and both groups of people generally tend to uphold western values (freedom of speech, democracy, etc).  Western values,  the set of principles that we both hold most dear, are under attack by Islam.  They reject democracies, freedom of speech and freedom of religion.  These core western principles allow both Christians and atheists to hold their views without having to fear persecution.  Islamists want to establish a worldwide caliphate, whereas Christians and atheists generally want to live in harmony with each other.  Most atheists I know think Christianity is benign or even beneficial, but to them Islam is somewhat threatening.  I wonder if Christians and atheists would make unlikely allies,  united by a common opposition to Islamofascism. --[[User:Kennywillis|Kennywillis]] 15:16, 8 January 2014 (EST)

==Request for a sysop to add Debate:How should parents deal with LGBT in cartoons and other children's media?==

I think this needs discussion. Recent cartoons have portrayed gay characters in their shows. Here are some links to articles describing them.

I want to start one about why I can't edit the site at night, but I'm not exactly confident in my comprehension on how this page works.
