Here is another attempt at an official debate. I realize it's a little risqué to be moderator, but we're both adults here and really see no need to gum up the works.
Topic: Are Love and Fear compatible as described in the Bible?
Setup: 3 rounds
round 1 - opening statements (due 13th 0730 EST)
round 2 - rebuttals (due 20th 0730 EST)
round 3 - conclusion (due 27th 0730 EST)
with 24 hours from the due date before termination and notice required for extension via PM. After the debate closes that's it, we haven't asked for judges or mediators or audience participation, save that stuff for the debate comment thread.
Cinjin will take the side that Fear and Love are incompatible
Tackattack will take the position that Fear and Love are compatible

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
