Referee: Hello everyone, I am extremely disturbed to present to you a terrible debate between Confucius and Lao Tzu. Confucius grew up in a very unique family as a lower noble. There are many interesting but ridiculous theories about our other guest, Lao Tzu. Many think he was a great philosopher while others think he was invented by random people. We will have Confucius, Lao Tzu, me the referee and a judge called What Tzu. He is not related to Lao, but Lao is convinced that he is his father. Confucius: Hello, my name is Confucius and I was born in the small Chinese state of Lu in 551 BC (Perkins, “Confucius”). I have many clever ideas to offer, how to bring humanity to my beautiful people. I am one of the most important figures in the history of China.Lao Tzu: Come on!!!Confucius: Sorry?Lao Tzu: Come on, brother!!!Confucius: Ok....I'll continue now.Confucius: Sorry Referee, it's not your job ask ourselves the question to start the debate? If not, I'll leave. Referee: Talking to me like that isn't going to win you the debate just by letting me know, man. Here is the question: what are the characteristics and values of an ideal society? Hopefully we get intelligent answers from two very stupid people, well one because Lao was invented by random people. Lao Tzu: How could I be made up if I'm here for the debate? Judge Cosa: Ok guys, let's get started, I have to go pick up my son from the vet... He just got a rabies shot. Referee: In your opinion, what are the characteristics and values of an ideal society? Confucius: I believe in the five constant relationships. Those are ruler and subject, husband and wife, parent and child, elder brother to younger brother, and equal to equal. The most important is that... at the heart of the card... it brought peace and removed violence from society. I created a period of peace and tranquility until times changed. Referee: So, judge, who do you think won this interesting debate (sarcastically)? Judge: I think Confucius won the debate. Lao Tzu: Are you kidding me? Go hang yourself. Judge: Bodyguards, arrest him...NOW!!!!! External narrator: Lao Tzu jumps over the water buffalo and runs away. Then he wakes up hours later thinking he dreamed what happened. Later, he decides that it really happened, even though he didn't win the debate. Judge: Thank you all for watching the debate, I know I'll be picking up my son from the vet... External Narrator: The judge walks out of the courthouse and sees his son next to his car. The vet never gave him the injection, which angered the judge. The story will now continue through your imagination.
