Principles of debates | |
---|---|---|
The first principle: debate teaches much. Debates are organized so that to help to gain knowledge and the abilities necessary for prosperity in modern democratic society. According to this principle, the first mission of debate is training. In other words, training has bigger value than a victory.
The second principle: honesty obligation If training and improvement of abilities is more important, than the victory, it will be less motives for a juggling of arguments. Honesty is a core of debate. The task of the participant of debate is to be honest in the arguments, in use of certificates and in answers in the period of cross questions.
The third principle: respect Debates don't concern the identity of participants, it is impossible to humiliate the person that he has other point of view. Debates concern ideas and their collision, and also what ideas are useful to mankind. And in collision of ideas by the only acceptable weapon there can be only reasonable arguments. In other words, "to attack" arguments, reasonings and certificates but not the opponent.
