Hello everyone;
We're going to hold a debate in our university a few months from now, and we're looking for suitable topics for the students.
Topics should not be religious or political, and have to be controversial and debatable ofcourse. We already did debates about homosexuality, premarritial sex and euthunasia..

Wondering if anyone of you would have other suggestions??
I'm confident you people have a lot in mind..so make sure you speak out! I need it Smile

Big thanks

V.J

<even my philosophical debates come around to political>

<tastes great, less filling....>

I'll be back. Good luck.

<When you say it can't be political, do you mean current political contests are out of limits, or things like Campaign Finance Reform and Social Security remedies are also out of limits?>

I suggest this topic:
What is the point for university institutions? Do they stimulate your capacity of questioning, and not only within the "political correctness?

Vonder: Why not religion? phooey. Well... You can borrow one of mine:
Is truth subjective (Only based on what we perceive) or objective(an ultimate set of facts that cannot be altered)? Hope that helps.
