cyric77 0 #1 February 26, 2004 These seem to be the two most volatile and debatable topics in any society, and this forum for that matter, so which do all of you prefer to debate? Personally I'd have to go with politics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyric77 0 #5 February 26, 2004 I have to agree with both you and piisfish, that both of those topics could be very debatable skydiving issues Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
feuergnom 28 #6 February 26, 2004 real macho men (read: skydivers) don't pack - they have a lot of female groupies that are way to eager hanging around with a coooool dude and willing to satisfy his needs. so they do all the packing for you. well at least that's how it works for me - how about you? edit 4 spellThe universal aptitude for ineptitude makes any human accomplishment an incredible miracle dudeist skydiver # 666 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nightingale 0 #11 February 26, 2004 Politics. Religion is, by its very nature, based on belief rather than fact, and is therefore unarguable. You always just end up agreeing to disagree, because there's no way to prove either side. With political arguments, there's a lot more fact involved. I enjoy discussing religion, but not debating it. I see religious discussions as more of an opportunity for me to learn something new, whereas political discussions...those are just fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karenmeal 0 #13 February 26, 2004 I love debating religion and politics. Which is why gay marriage is so much fun to debate/discuss since the government is now trying to force their collective religious beliefs on an entire nation. I'm having a friggin field day!
