Just want to give everyone a head’s up concerning the upcoming debate on Original Sin! It’s going to be great! It will be a week from today, 12/20/2008 from 4pm-6pm Eastern Standard Time. The debate will be between Kerrigan Skelly and a Calvinist Pastor from New Jersey named Pat. More information on the Pastor right before the debate. Here’s what the debate will look like:

The remainder of the show (about 30 min.) will be used to take questions from callers. Each caller will only be able to ask one question. The person that the question is directed at has 2 min. to answer the question and then the opponent has 1 min. to respond. We will take questions until the 2 hour mark or until people stop calling. If no one calls or calls stop before the 2 hour mark, then Pastor Pat will be free to go and Jesse, Kerrigan and John will discuss the debate.
Rules: The opening statements are generally a positive case for what the debater DOES believe. The rebuttals are responses to opening statements and to cross examinations. Cross examination time is to be used to ask the other person questions, not to continue with a lecture style response. Closing statements are open for anything and everything except asking the other person questions. We will discuss the topic of Original Sin, not Unconditional Election, Open Theism, Conditional Security, Once Save Always Saved, the Atonement or anything else. This debate is to be focused on this topic alone.
Join us for this debate on a controversial subject! At the least, it is sure to make you think and re-think what you believe concerning this issue. Just listen or take the time to ask a question at the end. It’s going to be great!
