If you would like to debate in a
head-to-head debate, find an opponent and agree on a topic. Then both of you must post here with the topic title you two have agreed on and then send me a PM with the link to your request. You two should also agree beforehand the format of the debate. I'll then give you both membership to the usergroup. You are then free to create the topic and debate.
After the debate is over, PM me and I'll lock the thread and remove you from the usergroup.

Stcordova and I have agreed to debate
"Whether or not Young Earth Creationism can be proved."
the topic question might further be refined upon agreeing to the precise terms this description should suffice for now.

I've agreed to the debate with DanieltheDragon pertaining to YEC. I'm new to the forum so I will defer to Daniel to work out some of the administrative details to get things going.
I've suggested the following:
Suggested debate question: "Is believing YEC a good bet?"
The format:
Round 1: introduce ourselves, what our position on the issues is, what we believe, and what claim we'll be defending.
Round 2:
State the process of how we are personally convinced an idea is true. What is our criterion for deciding something is true or worth betting on. For example, I don't necessarily give much weight to certain peer-reviewed papers nor scientific consensus. It would be good to state what we believe counts as facts or reasonable guesses.
Round 3:
State the primary reasons for believing or not believing a creator in general. This is probably relevant because if one does not believe in creator, one won't believe in YEC.
Round 4:
State the main reasons one believes the fossil record is old or young
Round 5:
State the main reasons one believes the Earth is old or young
Round 6:
State the main reasons one thinks the solar system is old or young
Round 7:
State the main reasons the universe is old or young
Round 8:
Summarize all arguments as succinctly as possible.
FREE FORMAT ROUNDS: any additional discussion either party wishes to put on the table. The exchange will end when one party calls for an end. The party calling for an end of the debate will also have the benefit of the last word.
I'm happy to go first in each round. The length of the posts for each of the structured rounds should be no more that 1 1/2 pages.
