    Saudi Arabia!

    Position 1: The US & UK's respective relationships with Saudi Arabia must end.
    Position 2: Saudi Arabia is not the 'big bad' it is claimed to be, the relationship should continue.

    I would prefer position 1 but will take position 2 if its all I can get. PM me

    In lieu of the fact that I have been a joke in terms of debating, I choose to embrace it and issue a new challenge:

    If anyone is down for any kind of less serious, "joke" debate (silly thought experiments, rhetorical questions, who-would-win-a-fight, etc.), I'm in. Any side of almost any topic. I don't care. If it's pointless, irrelevant, or mostly inoffensive, I'll do it. Shoot me a pm. If you dare...

    I feel like streching my ability to argue and persuade, I will ask anyone here to accept my challenge for the following topic: Caesar vs Pompey as generals.

    I will take the position of Pompey.

    Topic title; Does Systemic racism exist isn the US Justice and Economic System
    Details; Debate whether racism is systemic or a few bad apples strongly relying on arguments from data sets
    Position; Systemic racism exists

    I am also willing debate that people who fail to see systemic racism do so because of racial bias. But that one will be more posturing unless I can find someone willing to own their rationale as deeply as I will.

    It's been like four years, but this offer is still open.

    I challenge anyone to a debate using solely quotes from all the Bible translations out there. Even the crazy ones. Key is solely. Nothing but Bible quotes.

    A real basic common Bible debate.

    I have no topic, but for the interest of seeding life and another reason to turn up, I'm vaguely available to go off about some topic or another even if it is purely for devil's advocacy.

    How about we give a proper go at Armenian genocide allegations here? As most of you know, my stance is that what happened to Armenians during the WWI does not constitute a genocide. I'm looking to discuss this issue with someone on a one on one basis. A good starting rule is to start with a white page where neither party builds on what either of us argued outside of this sub-forum. Any argument made here is to be treated as if they're uttered for the first time. Any takers?

    Would it be fair to say that if nobody accepts this challenge, the position of PoVG will be considered fully accepted in this forum? (Come on somebody!!!)

    It would not be fair to say that. Not having time or interest in debating something does not imply that the the challenger's position is "accepted". If a flat Earther challenged me to debate them, I would pointedly ignore their nonsense, without that remotely implying I conceded their "argument".
