MODERATORS!!! Can you give myself and Drich …..
#71
RE: MODERATORS!!! Can you give myself and Drich …..
Seriously, though. I would love to watch these two debate.

Motion: "Was Jesus of Nazareth both an historical figure and Divine"
Number of Posts: 1 opening statement each, Drich to start in the affirmative, 2 posts each for rebuttal, 1 post each for closing statements.
Time Limits: No more than 7 days between replies.

I volunteer to moderate.

Maybe Tiberious can make exception for a more "free-wheeling" exchange.

I can't speak for Tiberius but that sets a precedent that I am personally not in favor of setting.

I'm not sure it's a good idea to use the debate forum to intentionally source high comedy.....but I have to admit, the worst part of me totally thinks it is.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

But the total number of posts is still limited to 8 (4 each). It is up to the debaters to decide how wisely they use their posts.
Perhaps the motion would have to be simplified: "Was there an Historical Jesus of Nazareth" or "Was Jesus of Nazareth a Myth". The former puts Drich in the affirmative. Icon would be the affirmative for the later.

Drich? Icon?.....hellloooo?

They could just start an informal debate thread, but then the entire purpose of this masturbatory thread, which was to troll the nibblers, would be for naught.

Don't be so stingy with the rebuttal limit, that's the fun part. So instead of 2 maybe give them... five... pages... each?

Yeah, they obviously just want to get together in an exclusive yet exhibitionist way. Could be entertaining. Thanks for offering to take the helm, Chad. But please put a word limit on each post. I don't mind smilies along with color and font changes, but I've got stuff to do. If they want to do it in the road with me watching, I think they should be able to get it on with less than a phone book's worth per post.

We could do with more of those.  They're low maintenance and bound to produce, at least, some variety in the content on the boards.

……… a thread where it would be just him and me, with no "sideline nibblers" and their childlike irrelative posts to the topic at hand?

The thread will concern the alleged BIBLE Jesus' alleged existence.

Is it possible to perform this request?

Thanks.
