Debate definations.

Debates suck.
But this definations rule :D

A. Debate :- A formal discussion involving one or more people who develop arguments and logically defend their points to prove their position true.
Example :-
"MCR give the best live performance ever."
"No they don't."
"Yeah they do, stupid idiot."

B.Hypothesis - stance on a topic which the debate focuses around.

Example: "America's government blows ass."

C. Thesis - logical comparative clause that supports the hypothesis.

Example: "God exists because it says so in the bible, you moron. You're going to hell."

D. Argument - something you say to piss your opponent off and move the topic away from the hypothesis.

Example: "You're stupid and nobody likes you."

E. Logic - progressive statement that follows valid reasoning.

Example: "Some people who wear purple are stupid. You're wearing purple, therefore you are stupid.

URGH. I have to do a freaking debate and it ain't easy.
