Application for steemit challenge season 32| Agree-To-Disagree Challenge.

Hello steemit team!!

I feel so happy making this application of mine for the Season 32 of the Steemit Challenge. In this special season I have decided to introduce debatable topics that cut across various spheres of life.
Hence the theme Disagree To Agree Challange.

The goal is not actually to prove a concept right or wrong, my sole aim is to give everyone an avenue to air their opinion, thoughts and feelings as touching some of the ideologies and concepts that run in our society.

In a nutshell, my contribution for this season's challenge is to give participants an opportunity to share what they think and feel about certain things. Let's not be surprised that what seem to be the norms to some might just be abnormal to others.Every Participant would be given the floor to support their take with valid points.

---

Core Values of my challenge

---

• Idea Exchange
• Freedom of Expression
• Critical Thinking
• General Enlightenment

---

Challenge Modality

---

Each week, a debatable topic would be shared here for participants to support or oppose as they deem fit. They are to do this by presenting their valid reason for supporting or opposing a motion. The goal is not actually to win arguments because we all understand and see things from different perspectives.

I only want to see how convincing you are with your argument via your presentation, dept of understanding about the subject matter you're defending with fact/evidence and ultimately your persuasive ability via your presentation.

With this in place we can all learn, relearn and unlearn certain ideologies we have held on to for a very long time. I just want an avenue for idea exchange and sharing of thoughts constructively to the end that we all can be informed and enlightened via the entries.
