At its core, Christianity is a philosophy of degeneration - Debate.org

degeneration: a lowering of effective power, vitality, or essential quality to an enfeebled and worsened kind or state.

By the core of Christianity, I mean its foundational teachings, as set out in the New Testament. Thus this will be a debate on the content of the NT only.

Round one is for acceptance only.

No new arguments in round five.

Dropped arguments are concessions.

Sources must be part of character count.

Obviously no semantic arguments such as 'Christianity is not a philosophy'.

I have set this to be accepted by those with more than 60 debates. That's just because the options aren't that helpful. If you have six completed debates and wish to debate this, just post in the comments. I only want to avoid brand new users, who invariably forfeit, which is boring.
