Mr. Swan, You know at least Mr. Madrid has a blog where people can respond, whereas Mr. White doesn't (to my knowledge). Not all of us have the time to call his show, and if we have a comment to make, it is much easier to post it on a blog. Often when you email Mr. White he doesn't post your comments on his blog; however, he does post the ones that furthers his self-perpetuated martyr complex. The sillyness runs rampant on both sides. This is clearly the case. Both sides engage the use of logical and emotional fallacies. I would never be permited to use these writing styles in my courses at the university I attend.
Also, being an apologist contra the Catholic Church, you should know that private revelations would never acquire an infallible declaration. Further study of the Catholic Faith is necessary here.
It's tough to respond to his Blog when you challenge his misrepresentations of doctrines like Sola Scriptura and then get basically banned for demonstrating the fact he doesn't always know what he is talking about.
He is a nice guy, who copies and pastes, as far as I can see.
As far as Dr. White not allowing responses on his Blog the answer is simple. It is not a debate board. If RCs want to debate him, allow him to debate on the DEBATE BOARDS!
Well Mr. Fisher I am not familiar with Mr. Madrid's misrepresentations so I will take your word for it; however, I can assure you that Protestants, including James White, make plenty of misrepresentations of Catholic doctrine as well. Humility is found in the intellectual honesty of recognizing this fact.

Looking for an Obscure Luther Quote? Chances are if you've wound up on this site, you're looking for information on an obscure quote said to come from Martin Luther or one of the other Protestant Reformers. This blog has been compiling information on obscure Reformation quotes for over a decade. Use the search engines below to look for your particular obscure quote.
“Let nobody suppose that he has tasted the Holy Scriptures sufficiently unless he has ruled over the churches with the prophets for a hundred years. Therefore there is something wonderful, first, about John the Baptist; second, about Christ; third, about the apostles...“We are beggars. That is true.” - Martin Luther
"It is true that the best apologetics can be given only when the system of truth is well known. But it is also true that the system of truth is not well known except it be seen in its opposition to error."- Cornelius Van Til
"But a most pernicious error widely prevails that Scripture has only so much weight as is conceded to it by the consent of the church. As if the eternal and inviolable truth of God depended upon the decision of men!"- John Calvin
"The Scriptures obtain full authority among believers only when men regard them as having sprung from heaven, as if there the living words of God were heard."- John Calvin
This is the best book available on Sola Scriptura. For Protestants, it will help you understand and defend sola scriptura. For Catholics, this book will help you understand exactly what Protestants mean by sola scriptura, rather than what you think it means. I highly recommend getting this book, it never leaves my desk, and serves as a valuable reference tool.
