What do you think about Mr. Jose Ventilacion the chief debater of iglesia ni Cristo, while you watch his debate together with Karl Keating in 1990 at San Diego California? Who is the winner?
I haven’t seen it yet and I asked CA for a copy 4 years ago but they don’t have it. Knowing how dirty INC in their tactics, they probably had the upper hand, but not in substance.What do you think about Mr. Jose Ventilacion the chief debater of iglesia ni Cristo, while you watch his debate together with Karl Keating in 1990 at San Diego California?

A heresy that is making a lot of money out of poor souls.tired, played out heresy. Nothing more. Nothing less.
And confusing some. And using violence at times, intimadation at others. Really sadA heresy that is making a lot of money out of poor souls.![]()
Do you know that they are the only group in the Philippnes that violent muslims can not threaten, because these guys are well armed and they respond with violence too.And confusing some. And using violence at times, intimadation at others. Really sad
Well, I am not surprised. What’s good for the goose, is good for the ganderDo you know that they are the only group in the Philippnes that violent muslims can not threaten, because these guys are well armed and they respond with violence too.
karl keating is good. However, it was obvious that karl faces
some jitters of the style of INC, like the mesmashing of logic, premises and conclusions. the INC has the penchant of interrupting the speaker while answering the question during a cross examination. Maybe to distract one’s line
of thinking or blur some points that the other side is expounding. As you can see in the video, Ventilacion’s sidekicks, kept
distracting karl. It’s a cheap trick but sometimes, it works.
Unlike karl’s previous debates against protestants, who keep
their manner intact by refusing to butt in while the speaker
is still talking.
There are several points that karl has the upper hand. But he
did not expound further to corner ventillacion. I could understand some of karl’s minor lapses, it’s because he is so civil and maybe he did not expect the INC would behave that way in the debate.
In my next post, I will stress out some points that karl had the biggest advantage, but he did not go in for the knockout punch; instead, he kept pepeering ventilacion with jabs.
But karl successfully hammered the nail on the head of INC’s doctrine theorists (my term), on the loopholes of the “god’s messenger coming from the fareast” theory.
During the cross, ventilacion asked karl whether the Phil. is
in the fareast, karl replied the country is not. then ventilacion
quoted a book of a priest, which said that the phil. is in the
fareast. Karl responded that the priest was wrong. Karl’s reply stunned Ventilacion. He was expecting that because it was written by a priest, karl would accept it.Karl said the Phil. is
in the southeast not fareast. That’s what the map of the world
shows, replied karl.
Observed the video, Ventilacion made a correction of his claim
during his constructive speech that the phil. is the geographical
center of the fareast.
I could surmised that because of that debate, INC’s doctrine theorists, realized the weakness of using the priest’s book to prove that the Phil. is the geographical center of the fareast.Since (1) the priest is not a geography expert and his book could be outrightly dismissed (2) the world geography shows that the Phil is in the southeast.
Guess what, the INC polished their belief on the messenger-fareast-Phil teaching. In 1999, INC’s official magazine Pasugo
somehow dished out a new reason to plug the holes of its theory. It says that the INC wants to set clear that when it mentioned the word fareast, it doesn’t mean it specifically refers to the Philippines but in reference to the east where the Philippines is part of it.
This is the biggest accomplishment of karl keating in the debate.
Here is the link of that debate…enjoy
