A Listing of My Insults!
James White, , Roman Catholicism
As I’m working I’m monitoring the Catholic Answers Forums, and I just saw RyanL accuse me of hypocrisy. Now, there is no end to all the things people will accuse me of, but as we are finding out, these folks are very long on accusations, very short on documentation. But at least someone tried. Here is the post. Now, let’s

Giving a Pass?
James White, , Roman Catholicism
I have had a few folks write to me and ask why I gave Dr. Al Mohler a “pass” in the blog article on the Dobson program. While I did not mention Dr. Mohler’s participation in the program by name (which, given that there were two priests and Dobson, did not amount to a major portion of the show), I

The Dave Armstrong Shuffle
James White, , Roman Catholicism
Those who monitor the comings and goings of Roman Catholic apologists on the Internet know of Dave Armstrong. I have not interacted with the man in quite some time on this blog. I took the time a while back to examine one of his books directly, demonstrate its utter lack of meaningful argumentation, and challenge him to defend himself. He

Nicaea Was Local Council, Arianism Not Settled Controversy, Implies Shea
TurretinFan, , Roman Catholicism
I admit that I’ve never had a high view of Mark Shea’s scholarship, yet a mixture of surprise and amusement washed over me as I took in Shea’s breathtakingly ignorant response to a reader’s question regarding Augustine and Sola Scriptura. A reader had pointed out to Shea that Augustine, in responding to the Arian heretic Maximinus, had sounded exactly like

A Multi-Faceted Dividing Line
James White, , Abortion, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism
Covered a wide variety of things yet again on the program today, so a little something for everyone. Started off with the new Roman Catholic apologetics book against Scripture titled, “The Obscurity of Scripture,” and talked a bit about the obscurity not of Scripture, but of Rome itself. We also spent some time reading through Schaff’s discussion of Pope Honorius.

Scripture has its Own Authority – and Christ Alone is Our Mediator – A Response to Michael Liccione
TurretinFan, , Roman Catholicism
Roman Catholic Michael Liccione recently provided a comment in the comment box of a Roman Catholic blog that I think highlights two of the problems with Roman Catholic theology: (1) the disparaging of the authority of Scriptures themselves; and (2) the deification of “the Church.” He said: What’s needed is a concrete, communal, continuous locus of “the sources” that is
