Tim Staples and Double Standards
James Swan, , Roman Catholicism
Catholic Answers occasionally airs a show dedicated to taking calls from non-Catholics. The shows are usually very cordial, as Rome’s apologists seek to influence the callers to “come home to Rome.” Tim Staples hosted the show recently, and spent time interacting with a Baptist on the correct interpretation of Matthew 5:32. What exactly is the interpretation of “marital unfaithfulness”? The

Debate: Justification by Faith? Robert Sungenis, Long Island, New York, 5/25/2000
James White, , Debate, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line
Is the Roman Catholic Church correct when she says that we can merit justification? Was the Council of Trent right after all? Can we lose our justification? Or is the Protestant Reformation correct in saying that a man is justified by faith alone, apart from works? Is Christ’s imputed righteousness enough to allow us to stand before a Holy God,

Did Thomas Aquinas Eventually Believe in the Immaculate Conception?
TurretinFan, , Roman Catholicism
It ought to be well-known that Rome’s dogma of the Immaculate Conception was denied by her leading medieval saint, Thomas Aquinas (as outlined here). This has been something of a thorn in the side of those contending that Mary was immaculately conceived. They have tried to explain Aquinas’ position away in various ways – such as by arguing that Aquinas

Wow….Why DID We All Wear Those HUGE Glasses?
James White, , Roman Catholicism
Looking at Ergun Caner’s glasses in the preceding article reminded me of my own spectacles from the early 1980s. What WERE we thinking anyway? Well, here’s an example I just ran across on Twitter. I didn’t know this was available on line, but, here it is! A Marian debate with Robert Fastiggi from…back when I sported a full beard, had

Patrick Madrid Turtles
TurretinFan, , Roman Catholicism
One may recall that Patrick Madrid has a web forum called Speak your Mind Apologetics Forum. He uses the URL “SurprisedByTruth” for his web site. I noted with little surprise that he had recently decided to stop my friend who uses the nick “Algo” from speaking his mind and surprising the Roman Catholics in that forum with the truth of

Long Island 1998 – Seventeen speaking/teaching/debating opportunities in thirteen days
James White, , General Apologetics, King James Onlyism, Roman Catholicism
My third annual pilgrimage to Long Island was by far the busiest yet. This year was centered on a debate against Jesuit scholar and priest, Mitchell Pacwa. For pictures of the debate, click here. But that was but one evening of thirteen. I began my work with Ed Moore of the North Shore Baptist Church. Last year I

Looks Can Be Deceiving: A Study in the Tactics of Roman Catholic Apologists Part III
James White, , Roman Catholicism
Amazingly, it continued on. Mr. Sungenis sent a message with an attached 24-page letter. The material that is preceded and followed by *** is from his letter. This is the file I wrote and then imported for mailing. I fixed a few typographical errors in the actual e-mail that I may have missed here. Until June 4th, this concluded this

Updates on Rome’s Forgotten Apologists
James Swan, , Roman Catholicism
I try to keep up with some of the fallen heroes of Catholic apologetics. Ten to fifteen years ago, it wouldn’t be so uncommon to find the men below put forth as Rome’s best defenders. I take 44 cents out Gerry Matatics’ pocket every so often. I’m on his mailing list, so the mailman brings me his newsletter. His most
