In nearly every debate, people always seem to insist on using "I believe this because of my religion" or "it's in the bible."
However, are these actual valid foundations for debate? |

^ Right, that's what I said. Usually the things that have been proven are used in schools and studies, but I don't think there's a place for it in debate because most people use is vaguely without any reason beside the fact that "It's what I believe," etc. They seem to think that just because some things are proven that the entire book is proven.
