Does anybody else just love to sit down and debate a topic for hours on end? Because I really got into the science of argument, and after a while of arguing incessently I began to feel like I can control peoples mind as though it were silly putty. Im aware of the fact that what I just said sounds like an immature narcissistic delusion, so dont give me shit.

OMG i feel the same way.. when im high. i can read their thoughts exactly when im high, i know exactly wha they'r ethinking and i can sense they're evil intentions.. and then start fights knowing ill win them because well. a good debate is well thought out, when you can predict they're rebuttle and already have a good come back stored up.

That's BS!
Arguing a point ad infinitum is boring as hell.:)

some people are just not mature enough to argue and usually end up getting offended and in turn, offending me.
so... i rather not.. especially when im high

but if it's a serious enough(to me) topic and you push my buttons, I have a really good way with words and usually make people feel dumb. lol
respectfully of course.

Not just saying, "uh huh"....."NUH UH"..........."UHHH HUH!!" ,but sitting down and having a rational and logical procession of opinions for the eventual goal of deciding whom was correct to begin with.:thumbsup:

LOL I know what it truely sounds like, but perhaps me comparing someones mind to silly putty was a bad way of putting it....its not like i feel some god power over them, its just a sense of control. Control of the flow, emotion, and outcome of the interaction.

IM BLAZED:smokin:

I already have an opinion, and I am happy with it. Arguing can only serve to disturb my personal satisfaction. Also, opposing opinions are often foolish and misguided, or just plain contumatious.

Then arent you saying that your mind is not open to a change or reversal of opinion?

^yea but very few people are humble, modest and "real" enough to admit that they are wrong..

Thats as sad as it is true. I cannot stand people who are so stuck on their ego that they can never apologize or realize when they are wrong. Its a very immature way of being, but sadly many adults fall into it because its comfortable.

Well you said that arguing could only serve to disturb your personal satisfaction, thats saying that regardless of the winner all it would do is make you uncomfortable.

i like a good debate but no matter what, you will never change the way someone feels on certain subjects so usually its a waste of time and thats what makes me really start arguin about it

So would you enter an argument knowing ahead of time that your position was going to be undefendable?
This is such an odd thread.

I disagree with the fact that you cannot change someone's opinion. I do agree that if you say that you are perfectly happy with your opinion and do not plan to change it, you are not a very open-minded person. You must always be humble enough to admit that there may be something out there that you have not heard, thought about or read about. And when you find that something, it can change your perspective on something unless you refuse to allow it to. In that case, you are then just being a stubborn fool. :)

Sometimes, I'm wrong. I would love to be right more often, though. So, that's why I allow people to give me thier POVs.

Damn, I would love to keep explaining myself...but I gtg. brb. lol

I'm a master debater but I make such comprehensive arguments that hardly anyone ever tries to refute my arguments, so strong and impenetrable, so I hardly ever get to "debate" anyone.

Yeah but an arguement and a debate are two different things, i dont mind having a good old debate but once i get into an arguement i sometimes lose control of my temper like we all do.

i was in a debate one time in college, it was for an ethics class, and the debate was whether or not women should be allowed in combat. i was on the side of no women should not be allowed in combat. i am all for womens rights and things of that nature, i just think that women and men together in battle is just a bad idea all around. if they were in seperate units, sure that'd be fine. i've known some hard as chewed gum females in my time in the military...but anyways.... the day of the debate comes around, im all prepared and ready to rock and roll, i get up in front of the class and look around and realize that im in a class of thirty with only about four males. long story short, it was very heated arguement as far as the females were concerned, and i lost. bad.

I like debates, as most folks who know me know. I also like being persuaded by logic and having my mind changed when I'm debating someone who knows what he's doing. To me it's even more fun to sit on debate panels and watch law students or speech students debate and see who wins according to the rules.

Arguing back and forth gets tiresome. I see arguing and debating as two fairly different things.

I like to argue with people who can argue. I hate arguing with people who cant argue, I'd rather bash my head in with a rock..

No, but someone who likes to argue might.
I do however routinely argue with people who not only won't change their position, but also feel that they need no evidence to back their position.
They are called prohibitionists.

or christians.No, christians can usually be convinced that cannabis prohibition is out of control, therefore they are more rational than prohibitionists.

it depends what your arguing with em about O_o

prohibition > they may become rational
religeon > theres no way you can smack ANY sense into them
I won't argue about religion, so it doesn't matter.

Funny, for an ethics class I took while I was a cadet at the Goast Guard Academy, I participated in the same debate. As a woman -girl, actually, only 18...- going into a military career, I was on the other side. As an adult, I think I'd take your position- separate units make a bit more sense- seeing how aldult men DO often let emotions take over, at least in part, when it comes to protecting women- something a young girl is not necessarily aware of. And that isn't an ideal situation. Protecting your comrades is a given, but protecting one over another because of her gender is wrong, and almost insulting.

I think the purpose of a good healthy debate is to sow the seeds of new ideas in the minds of the opponent. You will rarely change their mind on the spot, but somewhere down the road, they might face a situation that reinforces your position, giving it more power and legitimacy, and altering their view.

i hate arguing. one of my best buds who i toke up with LOVES to argue - but he is just dead wrong 80% of the time (or at least by my watch :D) - and we always end up in heated yelling matches because he never admits that he's wrong.

he's also a TERRIBLE liar, and when we call him out on shit he will act like he's telling the truth or that WE'RE retarded and argue with us some more. pretty frustrating

I find just putting them in the situation you're arguing for, you know, hypothetical thing works well.
