This is Catholic Internet Apologetics and a Reasonable Response thereto
Dr. White posted the video that I have embedded below that makes short work of the bulk of GNRHead's argument. There is certainly more that could be said, and there are unaswered (though not unanswerable) allegations.
The main point, though, is a good one. It is important for apologists to have a reasonably broad knowledge of church history, because there are all sorts of absurd claims that float about on the Internet.
Here is the video:
I hope you enjoy.

Comment Guidelines:
1. Thanks for posting a comment. Without you, this blog would not be interactive.
2. Please be polite. That doesn't mean you have to use kid gloves, but please try not to flame others, even if they are heretics, infidels, or worse.
3. If you insult me, I'm more likely to delete your comment than if you butter me up. After all, I'm human. I prefer praise to insults. If you prefer insults, there's something wrong with you.
4. Please be concise. The comment box is not your blog. Your blog is your blog. If you have a really long comment, post it on your blog and post a short summary of it here.
5. Please don't just spam. It's one thing to be concise, it's another thing to simply use the comment box to advertise.
6. Please note, by commenting here, you are relinquishing your (C) in your comments to me.
7. Remember that you will give an account on judgment day for your words, including those typed in comment boxes. Try to write so you will not be ashamed if it is read back before the entire world.
8. Stay on topic. If your comment has nothing to do with the post, email it to me (my email can be obtained through my blogger profile), or simply don't post it.
9. Don't post as "Anonymous." If you are going to post anonymously, at least use some kind of recognizable "handle," so we can tell you apart from all the other anonymous folks. (This is moot at the moment, since recent abuse has forced me to turn off "anonymous" commenting.)
10. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you; and abstain from doing to others what you would not wish upon yourself.
If I am to take this gentleman seriously at all, I request he remove the Bret Michael's poster off of his wall so I can pay closer attention to what he is saying instead of wondering what his infatuation with Poison is. What would be even better though is if Dr. White would make another V-blog with the same poster in his background or maybe a CC Deville, now that would be pretty funny.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous,
ReplyDeleteYes, I had noticed that too. It was actually kind of interesting to contrast his backdrop to that of another v-blogger, Preachdaword, who had been challenging him on a number of issues.
Preachdaword's backdrop is a wall full of books, among which was what appears to be a full collection of Calvin's commentaries.
