Teaching evolution in biology classes should be mandatory, with no chance to opt out
If you want to live in a modern society in the developed world, where one assumes knowledge and schools are a thing, evolution should be mandatory. But, in a more general, abstract sense, you're right.

The Holocaust didn't happen
Totally not a logical argument but instead an emotional response. And I agree the hell out of it.

The Holocaust didn't happen
Well, you made that assumption. The argument was about the Holocaust, And whether it happened or not. I asked you if you thought those events were related and you declined. So they become irrelevant to the discussion.

We shouldn't always respect each others beliefs.
Not respecting a person's belief isn't the same as not respecting their right to believe. You have the right to believe slavery should return. But I don't respect your belief.

The Holocaust didn't happen
Again, what do you consider evidence? I'm dying to know your take on the moon landing. And slavery, as well. Also (and feel free to not answer this question, if you don't want to), are you a white guy?

The Holocaust didn't happen
A couple of people lying to make money with a fabricated story doesn't seem enough to disprove the vast amount of evidence there is. Just like there have been people laying about having cancer, just to profit from their stories. That doesn't mean cancer doesn't exist.

Everyone eligible to vote in a government elections should by law have to vote.
I think that, ideally, you should have a point system. From 1 to, like, 7. And you shouldn't be forced to use all points. You could just give a 5 and walk away. That would help the people that don't know who they want to see elected, but know who they don't want to see elected... I think...

Believing aliens is just as illogical as believing god.
No, we haven't. But the original argument was about god being as illogical as aliens. The fact that we are close to finding visible evidence of life on other planets, have life in this one and know the existence of a billion other planets, makes aliens more logic than god.

It is necessary for any elected official to show respect and tolerance to those with different faiths and beliefs.
It depends on the belief. But if you tolerate every belief, you'll also be tolerating intolerant beliefs (racism, homophobia, etc...). In that way, no one will elect you if you tolerate every thing, because that means you'll always promote intolerance.

The Holocaust didn't happen
That doesn't seem to have anything to do with the original argument. Are you saying that they had that (the Holocaust) coming to them? Or they deserved it?
