Well, I suppose I should start off by stating that I'm a theist. I'm just here looking for some debates. That's all I have to say.

Hmm... well, let's see. Anything from the existence of God and the plausibility of various theistic/antitheistic arguments all the way to economics (Capitalism vs. Socialism).

I'm not exactly sure how to find a debate opponent, though I'm pretty sure that there's a plethora of people here willing to debate me. :p

I'd be willing to.
xD
Due to a recent troll, however, I'd kindly ask that we not discuss economics. I still can, don't get me wrong, but I need a break from stupidity for awhile.

Alright then, what would you like to debate? (Personally, I prefer the existence of God)

Thanks, Aught3. I'll be sure to look around and notify a moderator.

That debate only ends one way - two angry children whining about why they're right and the other one is wrong. I'm a theist too, and I'd be hapy to debate the existance of any deity, but I'm just tealling you the outcome. :p

Pick a topic, and I can usually point you to the right user, or take it up myself.

But you two wouldn't believe in the same gods would you? That might be an... odd debate :lol:

How about abortion?

Interesting - but you can't just say "Abortion."
It's like saying "Soccer" without mentioning which teams are playing, or what's being played for (For example - backyard soccer vs. FIFA soccer is quite different). What grounds? What side are you taking? What exactly are we discussing?

And, Aught, it would be odd. xD

So am I, I believe abortion to be morally wrong except in cases where the life of the mother is threatened. Personally, I would like to debate somebody who is pro-abortion.

I suppose 8,000 characters will suffice. As for rules -- just be civil (No profanity or insults). As for penalties -- sure.

Mine is based upon choice, but within the scope of medical necessity and under a certain age. Mine is state-sponsered, aswell.

Penalty:
1) Not citing sources for claims.
2) Spamming of links - you should know what you're talking about.
3) Refusal to address a claim without giving a reason ("Dancing around it")

So I take it I'm debating you?

If so, by "choice" do you mean that elective abortion is morally permissible?

Choice of the holder - but only if they meet certain criteria can they do it. But mine is a hypothetical system based upon population control and people being stupid.

I see. Well, if you want, I'll debate you then.

We must agree upon terms here. Would you agree to a Moderator using the list of penalties I listed above, and so on?

EDIT:
Let's include-
1) Overgoing the character limit.
2) Too many links ("Link spamming")
3) Not responding to arguments.
