If you could see two people debate who would it be and what would they debate...
Some of my personal choices...
Jimi Hendrix v. Niccolo Paganini - Why does one experiment with music?
Benjamin Franklin v. Leonardo Da Vinci - What's the best system to achieve self-awareness?
Pablo Piccasso v. Michaelango - What constitutes art?
Shakespeare v. Ernest Hemingway - What is the purpose of a character in a story or play?
Freud v. Jung - What are dreams?
Albert Camus v. C.S. Lewis - What is the purpose of suffering?
Plato v. James Madison - What is the purpose of government?
Albert Einstein v. Plato - What is reality?
Dan Rowan (future Nobel Prize Winner) v. Richard Dawkins - Is God a delusion?
Lenin v. Lennon - How do you achieve world peace?
See which ones you can come up with. I look forward to it.
