  • Veneration of Mary Debate – Thoughts on Reflection – Part 1

    There were a few issues that arose during the Veneration of Mary Debate that I thought could use a little attention. Also, I see that Mr. Albrecht has posted some thoughts of his own regarding the debate (although I haven’t yet listened to his thoughts … I’ll save that for a later segment). One issue…

  • Why Dr. White Dominated the Barker-White Debate

    Introduction I have listened to the Barker-White debate of last Thursday twice (an mp3 of the debate can be obtained here). Many things could be said about the debate. I have a few quick thoughts on why Dr. White dominated the debate: 1) Dr. White presented a Biblical case. This is the primary reason that…

  • Strawbridge vs. White Debate on Baptism – Some Caveats

    Coram Deo at Defending Contending (link) has a post discussing the issue of infant baptism and the new covenant and promoting a debate between Dr. James White and Greg Strawbridge on the topic of infant baptism. He writes: Yet precisely WHAT does Christ mediate to those who are baptized as infants and grow to adulthood,…

  • Responses to Audience Questions About the Substitionary Atonement Debate

    I’ve received a couple of comments on the Substitutionary Atonement debate. One of the commenters was someone using the nick “Michael”. Michael asked: 1) What do you mean by “wrath of God?” Is it the same thing as Godforsakenness or is there a distinction? Has there ever been a case or will there ever be…

  • Veneration of Mary Debate with William Albrecht (aka GNRHead)

    This is a debate that was conducted on 25 April 2009 between TurretinFan and William Albrecht (aka GNRHead) on the topic of the Veneration of Mary and its Biblical Support (or lack thereof). http://www.youtube.com/p/D865CBCDF669817D&hl=en&fs=1 At some later point I would like to provide some further comments on this debate. For now, however, here it is…

  • Atonement Debate vs. Catholicism – Complete

    “Catholic Nick” and I have concluded the debate we were having on the Atonement. One can access all the parts of that debate via an index page that I have created (link) or via the debate blog more generally (link). Between the two, the index page may be easier to use. Enjoy! -TurretinFan To God…

  • Debates This Weekend

    I’m scheduled to debate issues having to do with veneration of Mary and the Bible with Mr. William Albrecht (noon Pacific time on Saturday). It will not be available live, but we hope to post the debate as an mp3 or the like afterward. Also, by the end of Sunday I should post my conclusion…

  • Cross-Examination in the Atonement Debate Complete

    My atonement debate with Roman Catholic “Catholic Nick” is entering its final stages, now that the cross-examination round is complete (direct link to debate posts)(link to index of debate). There’s no plan, right now, for audience participation in this debate, though parts of the debate intersect with an ongoing discussion I have with Jay Dyer…

  • "Catholic Nick" Index Page

    So far, Nicholas (aka “Catholic Nick”) and I have just one debate (and it is still in progress). Nevertheless, I figure it is time to start an index page of our interactions so that it will be easy to locate our discussion. I don’t know much about Nicholas, as his website doesn’t give out much…

  • I’ll Debate Richard Dawkins for $100,000

    If he’ll pay me $100,000, I’ll engage him in a debate. The money won’t come to me, it will go to two or three charitable organizations. I’m not in it for money, I just want to get Dawkins to part with $100,000 of his money so that the money will not be available for mocking…
