			<description><![CDATA[Everyone put on their thinking caps.  Its time for some new challenges!!  I was wondering if I thought of something that I thought would be a good debate topic, but left the side choosing up to my opponet would that be acceptable.
<br />
 
<br />
I don't have anything as of yet, just wondering if I could put some ideas out there and then debate the side that isn't choosen if my topic is choosen.  Eesh, even I am confused!!]]></description>

			<title>The Cerberus - Autonomous or Controlled</title>

			<dc:creator>Caged_Faraday</dc:creator>
			<description>I know there has been much discussion about the entity that has been lovingly dubbed "Smokey".  I'd like to open a debate on one element of the big Smokey question here, as to the nature of the Cerberus as an autonomous being (creature, monster) or a controlled force (mechanical, electromagnetic).  I choose this debate, because it follows the larger debate of the show as brought up in "Man of Science; Man of Faith".



It goes without saying that I choose the side of Science.

Lets start with a definition of Good Guy: morally excellent; virtuous; righteous; pious: a good man.



For Ben to be a Good Guy he must surely have some of those characteristics but he

the above. I will however  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>theggsnake</dc:creator>
			<description>Allrighty, I have three topics that Old King Lojozz can choose from. One new one and the two old ones that were not picked. I challenge you your Majesty.



1) Do you think that the smoke monster is natural or man made. I would argue that it was natural.



2)  Is the pre-crash interconnectedness of the Lost characters random chance? I would argue that it is not random chance.



3) Basket-case Jack from the flash forwards- Was this always his true destiny or was it caused by his experiences  ...</description>

			<title>Aaron....Good or Evil?</title>

			<dc:creator>Lost_Dbutz</dc:creator>
			<description>Thought this might be a good debate topic:  Is Aaron good or evil?



What do we know?  Richard Malkin told Claire that her baby must not be &quot;raised by another.&quot;  Aaron is being raised by Kate at this point, not Claire.  So what are the concequences of this?  Charlie tells Hurley that Jack isn't supposed to raise him.  Claire told Kate not to bring him back.    Is Aaron going to become evil and do something that will negatively affect the island?



What do you all think? </description>

I

think the key word in arguing that the Losties where brought to the

island as part of plan is ‘manipulation’. The definition of

manipulation is ‘Shrewd or devious management, especially for one's own

advantage.’ In manipulating somebody or something you are trying for an

end result that will be of benefit, in other words you have a plan to

gain. So every time you see an example of manipulation I want you to

			<description>All righty then. Let’s get this debate club up and running again.



I have selected three final topics on which to debate and I present them now to his Royal Majesty.

I give him the option of choosing which one he would like to tackle but I reserve the right of choosing which side of the argument to take to myself.

Or, If he prefers, he may ask all of the members of this site to vote on which topic they would like to see debated here.



I don’t know if this is a format we would like to adopt  ...</description>

			<dc:creator>Lojozz</dc:creator>
			<description>Ok now that we have all settled into our new home, its about time we get back down to some serious debating. 



As the winner of the last debate I would like to issue the challenge for the next debate. Suggestions on the topic can be made here. We should perhaps have a little discussion as to rules and format as the site is very different from LT's.



MSHL I give you first refusal on the debate as it was looking likely it would be you bef0re the incident.
