I seriously feel like I am surrounded by morons. Yesterday I had a debate over student led prayer at school, and I brought up several court cases stating it was constitutional. Also I used a metaphor about how if you were in Jerusulem you wouldn't be offended if you heard a jew praying, so why would you be offended by a baptist in houston. I used better arguements and made a good case, but the class still voted 3-28 that my arguement lost. What arguement did I lose to? I quote:
"If we jus' let ever-body do their prayin' stuff, den we goona [yes goona] have them people's worship'n their voodoo dolls and terrists blow'n us up during school because their religon says they's spose'd to. We gonna get blow'd up!"

WTH: that doesn't even address the topic, and I am pretty sure terrorism isn't a religion.

    Jerusalem has the advantage in this case as being a holy city for no less than three religions. Houston is... it's a holy city for space enthusiasts, I guess!

    That is a terrible argument to lose to, so while I don't support your premise, I do think you probably made the better case, and having lost many times to the morons I went to school with, I extend to you my sympathies.
