    Default Value judgments.

    It hit me today. I can win any ethical debate, or at least stalemate it.

    Go ahead challenge me. I want to see if my idea can withstand testing in the field. Any ethical topic in the news these days. Gay marriage, abortion, voting rights, racism, sexism, prejudice.... ect. Ill take either side of the issue.

    It is unethical to argue for sides that you don't believe in.

    Racism has varying definitions depending on who you're talking to. Since youre talking to me. No it isn't.

    No. It's morally praiseworthy to argue for sides that you don't believe in.

    OK then, why don't you argue for why there should be a modern day holocaust eliminating all the black and Jewish people.

    Very well.

    Black and Jewish people are an undesirable plague on the human race. In order to ensure a future without them we must round them up into groups that can be easily identified and eliminated so the continuity of the other races can be ensured.

    Do you have a specific counter argument or do you just disagree?

    In the form of analogy. The plague was an infection disease that was undesirable and eliminated many ethnically european white people. So too do the Jews and the Blacks through inter-race procreation. It would be good to eliminate them.

    ps.
    BTW please don't think I actually believe this. I'm testing something and eventually getting around to making a point. But that might be a while yet. Please continue as though I am really making these arguments.

    Invalid argument.

    Your premise is false. Lets say your premise was correct and they were a plague to society. So in order for the other races to continue we have to eliminate them?

    Your conclusion is false.

    Other races are showing continuity with them existing.

    /end thread.

    If you re read you'll see that I said to "ensure" continuity. As a matter of pure fact a 100% ethnic genocide guarantees that their genes will not be passed on through other races.

    You're not making arguments but statements. If they are arguments then they are unsound and very weak.
