Give me a topic and your position and I will argue with you.

I seriously think that AMD's Bulldozer was shit, especially that you can get an Intel i5 2500K for less that can perform the same and sometimes better in some programs (and of course the 2500K is superior for gaming). The issue with this is that Intel may feel that they're not getting any completion from AMD anymore which is worrying with Ivy Bridge coming out early next year, and Intel may jack up the price as a result if they no longer feel pressure from AMD.

(NOTE: I am of course comparing with the most powerful Bulldozer chip; the FX-8150)

I'm gonna let anybody take a stab at this one.

The people who claim that Obamas health care reform is an "attack on their freedoms" while wholeheartedly supporting the patriot act are a bunch of hypocritical idiots.

Firearms are an anachronism that, apart from regulated hunting activities, have no place in civilian hands in modern society.

Karl Marx believed the essential conditions for the existence and for the sway of the bourgeois class is the formation and augmentation of capital; the condition for capital is wage labour. Wage labour rests exclusively on competition between the labourers. The advance of industry, whose involuntary promoter is the bourgeoisie, replaces the isolation of the labourers, due to competition, by the revolutionary combination, due to association. The development of Modern Industry, therefore, cuts from under its feet the very foundation on which the bourgeoisie produces and appropriates products. What the bourgeoisie therefore produces, above all, are its own grave-diggers. Its fall and the victory of the proletariat are equally inevitable.

Do you agree?
Ah damn it, I'm getting too tired to do economics.
What I will say is that Karl Marx wrote in a time when government and business had certain understandings with each other that are fortunately nonexistent today. His predictions may have been accurate had the middle-class economies of the later 20th century not come into being.
That's not necessarily completely accurate, as many Marxist writers (a term Marx himself loathed), have posited that labor reforms, such as unions, and protections, like minimum wage, only offset the eventual downfall of a capitalist system. Though there is little consensus as to what that exactly means, and even Marx himself wasn't particularly interested in the details of capitalism's demise, or it's aftermath, only the eventuality.

Schrödinger's cat is dead... and isn't.

Also, I remember for certain that you remember that time when I did that thing, which was stupid, but at the same time really smart. And you said that comment but I was like 'no' and carried on.

I thought I did the wrong thing.

Oxygen and you, remaining alive through respiration:

My stance: Oxygen is vital to human life, and without it we would all die horribly, gasping and wretching and clawing at each other for those precious molecules.

Your turn...

It's my belief to believe i have beliefs.


well.....waiting OP.
You believe to believe that you have beliefs.
*I* believe that you believe that every belief you've ever had was actually implanted into your brain by a garden gnome that comes to life at night and is surprisingly proficient at subliminal messaging.
I have a Hydreigon so I am clearly right.
hhhmmmm....maby, but even a false belief is a belief is it not?
and if i find what you true, does that not also count as a belief?

You know people can just say obvious facts and easily beat you?

1)Jesus was real!
2)Murder is a better crime than rape
3)If CoD wasn't popular there wouldn't be any hate
What on earth do you mean by "better"?
Well in my opinion, murder holds no long term consequences for the person. There life just ends and only the people who knew him grieves. Now when you are raped, you cant forget being raped since it's such a horrific thing. Some people even develop really bad mental issues after it, and unlike murder they have to live with everything that happens in the aftermath. In some cases everyone is affected, if the person had a partner they would have to live with the shock of knowing your partner got raped.

My main point is that rape is worse (I agree I should've said that instead) because the victim has to live with the memories whereas if you get murdered you dont remember being murdered because your dead.

Perhaps it's worse in the sense of emotional pain, but honestly, I find it difficult to believe that it's better for you to not exist, than to exist with pain. After all, it's not like one can only determine goodness or badness if one exists.

Some organism is alive at this moment.

BOOM.
That is actually pretty easily disproven. I'll let Douglas Adams explain it.

"Although you might see people from time to time, they are most likely products of your imagination. Simple mathematics tells us that the population of the Universe must be zero. Why? Well given that the volume of the universe is infinite there must be an infinite number of worlds. But not all of them are populated; therefore only a finite number are. Any finite number divided by infinity is zero, therefore the average population of the Universe is zero, and so the total population must be zero."
So... something is alive in my dream world. I DARE YOU TO ARGUE THAT.
Easily. As I explained, the population of the universe is zero, so you don't exist, therefor by extension your dreams don't exist because you don't exist to dream them. This proves logically that nothing in your dreams is alive because the dream doesn't exist because you're not real
Still, even though the universe is ever expanding, it will come to an end one day.
That means it is not infinite. The universal law says everything has an end. Thus, the universe is not infinite, meaning it has a population greater than zero, meaning i exist.
