From the link to James White:

Quote
The Scriptures have never led any person into Arianism

I'm sorry. That is patently not true. Bishop Arias defended his position FROM THE SCRIPTURES. The JW's of today will also use the scriptures to try to convince you that Jesus was not God manifest in the flesh. In fact, the scriptures have been misused for 2,000 years to produe all manner of crazy beliefs. You simply cannot argue this fact.

That the scriptures are not either perspicuous nor self-interpreting is quite clear just from looking at the myriads of various Protestant denominations.

As for the idea of "winning" a debate, I do hope you realize that after any debate is over, whether it be a debate on politics, morality, or religion, each side will tell thier apologeticist "you really told him!"

Do you know when a debate is really won?

When the other side's apologist shows up in your camp repenting.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
