Newer readers of Prevailing Winds may not have heard of my 2006 debate with Doug Wilson, in which I discovered that, with all glory to God, our local Bishop of Bluster is actually not a very accomplished debater. I think the 2 1/2-hour debate did not go well for him, but I’ll let you decide for yourselves:

Wilson knows that I’ve issued him a standing offer to debate him anytime, anywhere. The thing is, I don’t think I’ll be hearing from him. He is not a skilled debater; he is not an honest debater, as his engagements with R. Clark Cooper and Andrew Sullivan demonstrated, and his performance in ours was, I think, not a high point in the great Classical art of the Disuptatio.
