I'd take "the bible is not inerrant" for ten.

You could always try some role reversal and attempt the "For" position.

The debater seems to have given up on getting a challenger. Boy are we a bunch of wussies. Then again I never was one to accept a challenge just to do something I don't enjoy and don't value for someone else' amusement.

Debating a Christian: 4 pages of not only what to debate on but debating on debate.

That's a new one.

I would like to know why Christians feel it is their "duty" to tell others how to live their lives?
When I was a Christian, I didn't thrust my views onto others, condemning them if they didn't believe as me.

So, enlighten me OP. :-)

How would you phrase that as a debate topic?

What do you mean by "thrust"?

Are you saying all Christians do this "thrusting", or just the ones you personally have known?
