And here you all are, a link to two of the best articles on actual debating I've found on the Internet so far. We have lots of arguments here and call them "debates". Frankly, these exchances do not rise to the level of actual debate but rather consist of the expression of certain fixed opinions, usually unchallenged, that say between the lines "so's yo momma."
So here I present some real How To information about debate to my friends here would who so like to debate. You folks get this down in your heads and you'll be unstoppable (I feel like I'm creating a monster)
Here's your link:
