Hmmmm, I don't think so. When I was in High School the National Topic one
year was "Resolved- That there should be alternative methods of energy
researched and developed".

The process never asked us to believe. Another year was on the topic of
child suicide. And we switched sides. Do you think I felt child suicide
was neccessary?
