    In it, the executives eulogize Kirk, calling him an “advocate for open debate, whose faith was important to him.”

    Open debate is good. Now, never bring up and debate any position held by this man.

      I don’t think that guy did open debates, I think he was a malevolent well poisoner.
      Who used the artifice of “debating” to peddle his lies and deceive the masses.
      His “debating” is what pseudoscience is to science.

        None of them do. They just edit things down to the very few moments that make them look like they’re winning a debate, and even those moments are superficial, construed, or they don’t know that they’re actually losing. If it’s live or in person, conflicting views and evidence are avoided or just ignored. They’re all snakes as if snakes were made of slime.

        Yeah, seeing some of his clips, so many of his statements are co fidently asserting whatever feels right to him, never with anything solid to back it up. Fucking snowflakes and their feelings…
