NCFCA LD: March 2009
http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Thursday, March 26, 2009. I report with deep regret and a bit of shame, that Nationals will be held at Bob Jones University. For those who may be unaware, why would BJU be a bad idea? Well for a few reasons,. 3 Legalism. A quick read through the bylaws of the college show a legalistic, stern, and shallow interpretation of Christian morality. Why endorse this kind of "morality"? Isn't this the sort of system that Christ condemned? Now you may be thinking,. Sunday, March 15, 2009.

http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2009/08/california-leave-ncfca-creates-stoa.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Saturday, August 29, 2009. California leave NCFCA, creates Stoa. For those of who you are in NCFCA (the National Christian Forensics and Communications Association, the Christian homeschool alternative to the National Forensics League), many of you are aware of the recent developments with the NCFCA and their Region 2 (California). 2 California has probably the highest degree of exposure to college debate (the vast majority of the community colleges competing at Phi Rho Pi College...

NCFCA LD: September 2009
http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. More on Ethnic Conflict. This is an issue that really needs good research. As I said before, race and ethnic issues are not commonly brought about in many NCFCA debates and the NCFCA could profit from good discussions of race in this resolution. Competition Between Ethnic Elites Causes Civil War. Http:/ www.allacademic.com/meta/p mla apa research citation/1/0/0/5/9/p100597 index.html. Competition, Cooperation and Race. An interesting take for this year...

A blog dedicated to LD. Monday, May 11, 2009. NCFCA Response to BJU Protest. As many of you know, several NCFCA affiliates (competitors, alumni, coaches, parents and staff) have been protesting (in writing and by joining a facebook group) the decision by the NCFCA Board to choose Bob Jones University as the location for our 2009 National Championship. If you wish to find the many reasons why BJU is an unacceptable location for our organization, please look to previous posts). Subject: Region 8 Update.

NCFCA LD: April 2009
http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Wednesday, April 1, 2009. It allows for no clash. While there is a metaphysical definition of idealism, as my opponent defined it, it does not and cannot clash with pragmatism. Why? Pragmatism can't just start with un-stated under-the-table presuppositions and then assert that there is no clash because we can't look under the table.Well, that's the same thing as saying that ideas don't exist.It's a metaphysical assertion. It does not allow for a value debate. It would be the negat...

NCFCA LD: Common Affirmative Argument No. #1: Education
http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2010/02/common-affirmative-argument-no-1.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Sunday, February 21, 2010. Common Affirmative Argument No. #1: Education. Public schools are marked by cooperation. Public schools are terrible. American education is worse comparably because it is government funded. Hardly. Among the top 20 universities in the world, 4 are public universities (U of Edinburgh, U of Michigan, ETH Zurich, and the Australian National University). In addition all the countries that score consistently above the US in the OCED average, fund the ...Of al...

NCFCA LD: Common LD Arguments: New Series
http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2010/02/common-ld-arguments-new-series.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Sunday, February 21, 2010. Common LD Arguments: New Series. This is going to be the first of a few briefs. Like every LD year, even one so broad, it seems people stay within a fairly narrow confine of examples and groups of examples. Here's a little history lesson:. Civil Rights: Hitler, Japanese internment camps, the PATRIOT Act. Journalism: Hitler, Deep Throat, Jayson Blair. Democracy: Hitler, Hamas, Iraq. Isolationism: Hitler (a trend much? Iraq, Diego Garcia. Common Affirmativ...

NCFCA LD: Common Affirmative Argument No. #1: National Security
http://ncfca-ld.blogspot.com/2010/02/common-affirmative-argument-no-1_25.html
A blog dedicated to LD. Thursday, February 25, 2010. Common Affirmative Argument No. #1: National Security. A big one this year is National Security. Which seems a bit odd, because this year didn't really scream "national security" to me. But it's one that comes up often, due it's interesting nature (most debaters are guys and guys like applications about blowing stuff up) and the conservative nature in the league (hard to make "National Security" sound bad doesn't it? Op Cyclone was the codename for a C...
