Sir Greneknight of the Round Table and Sir RaphielDrake will be fighting a battle in the Formal Debate section. Come one, come all to witness the BATTLE OF THE CENTURY!!!
We're ironing out the details at the moment!!!!!!
For fuck sake Grene. We discussed this. Please drop the knight thing and stop announcing everything before it happens.
Its just silly. If you have to do it at least don't rope me into the whole roleplay thing.
Seriously, I'm not into it.
But yeah. One on one debate over the definition of Christianity sounds fine.
Just waiting for you to confirm with Tibs and it should be set.
Unlikely much will happen tonight becauses its 12 here and I've got alot of work to do.
I've written to you but since you are here, I'll just address you here. You suggested "The definition of Christianity" but that is too broad and it doesn't seem to advocate anything so it's not suitable as a debate topic.
As you will recall, the reason for this debate is I called myself a CHristian and you objected to that. So you are saying it's not legitimate for me to call myself a CHristian if I don't believe in a God being which I don't. I have made it clear I reject the supernatural entirely.
So the motion of the debate should read:
"It is not legitimate for a person who does not believe in the supernatural to call himself a Christian".
You will propose the motion and I'll oppose it. We'll use an assortment of medieval weapons.
If you are agreeable to that, let's decide on the other details eg timing. I am ok with that - it depends on what kind of timing you want. How many rounds should each party have?
Oh, this is so exciting!!!! Finally, Sir Greneknight gets to go into battle. My battle horse was getting tired of the inaction.
For God and Queen!
Sir Greneknight, Knight of the Round Table.
