James White was struggling to understand why Professor Bart Ehrman would consider him offensive and an unpleasant guy. Well here’s the research. There’s more on this on this blog post:

Yahya Snow, who went to the trouble of producing this video, comments on his blog:
OK, I’m done here. Over to the James White supporters to pass this on to James. Don’t worry, he won’t bite. Just email it to him. It will help him. Perhaps he will even change his ways. Maybe he never realised how mean he comes across to the average listener/viewer/reader?
If you’re a Trinitarian Christian, let’s face it, out of all the Christians (including Mormons, if you want to lump them in there too) the evangelical Christians on the net are the loudest and rudest. I find Catholics and Mormons to be better human beings – based on my limited experience of them. Not sure what’s going on over there in the evangelical camp but you’ve got some rude, obnoxious and offensive missionaries, pastors, church elders and apologists.
When you evangelical boys and girls say you are guided by the Holy Spirit we look at you with puzzled looks.

Great comment Yahya. The effects of guidance by HS truly are a mystery

I’m not sure this just pertains to evangelical Christians – I’ve certainly met rude Christians in my time, but I’ve also dialogued with very very rude muslims who I believe are genuinely out just to be nasty. I’ve also encountered some horrible Jews online too!
Of late I’ve been coming to the conclusion that this defensive aggressiveness is just part of the human condition. It’s also because the written word can be misinterpreted and is not as nuanced as face to face contact.
As a Christian, I’m trying to cloak all my contact with people in the fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control) but it sure ain’t easy…

It is offensive to assume all other humans are totally depraved by nature

I’m more offended that you didn’t put a full stop after that sentence. Must be due to original sin, indeed poor punctuation is of the Devil.

I’m also offended by the doctrine of Original Sin! I think it’s more complicated – we’re a mixture of good and bad.
