For my one-line statement of my position, I don't really see how it could be less ambiguous. (Although I didn't mean to phrase it as merely a belief statement.) Wouldn't that do for the purposes of the title of the debate?

You can go first if you like. I don't mind.

Well, I need to know the sense of it. Since you don't mean it as a private belief statement, would you be amenable to changing it? I propose, "It is irrational to disagree with the statement, 'the position that killing animals for meat is morally wrong.'"

I'm glad something is actually working out regarding a formal debate on the issue.

That would be fine.
