Current Debates

This list of debates highlights some of our newest topics where your contribution of pros and cons counts most.

  • Should smoking be banned in public places?

    Yes it Should

    Because the majority of people want to be healthy

    Yes
  • Should minors have to abide by a curfew?

    It is up to the parents to decide when their children should be home.

    By giving a strict curfew for minors, they could be arrested for taking a walk at night. This is not fair, because minors don't always commit crimes, just because they are outside at night. Parents should decide when their children are allowed to be out, not the law.

    No
  • Do we need to put more focus on providing funding for space exploration?

    I believe that funds should be spent to take care of this planet rather than explore space.

    Funding space exploration is a waste of money when there are so many issues plaguing the planet. People die from hunger and curable diseases every single day. We are destroying our lands at an alarming rate. These issues need to be addressed before we consider leaving the planet. Finding sustainable sources of energy and ending war and famine are of far greater importance than space exploration which has no promise to benefit mankind.
