The Holy Catholic Church vs Baptist

My case is centered around the Bible not being the only source of truth, and my arguments will stem from that. Altering of the Ten CommandmentsThe first thing that I would like to bring up are the Ten Commandments according to Judaism: 1. I am the Lord your God who brought you out of slavery in Egypt.2. You shall have no other gods but me.3. You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.4. You shall remember and keep the Sabbath day holy.5. Honor your father and mother.6. You shall not murder.7. You shall not commit adultery.8. You shall not steal.9. You shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor.10. You shall not covet. My opponent's claims are groundless. While he would have us believe that there is an explicit, obvious, and undoubtable distinction between each commandment in the Bible, such a distinction does not really exist as he is implying. The only real differences are Commandment 1 and Commandments 9 & 10. Commandment 1 (from the New American Bible): "I, the LORD, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery. You shall not have other gods besides me. " The Jews lumped in the making-idols part with the not having other gods part as well, so I don't see the grounds on which my opponent is objecting. If you can't have other gods besides the LORD, you can't worship idols anyway so this point seems kind of moot. The main point is God doesn't want people thinking idols are gods. In fact, my opponent's interpretation of not making any graven images seems to pretty much fly in the face of the Bible itself. In Exodus 25, God commands the Israelites to make two graven cherubim, and in Numbers 21 God commands Moses to make a graven serpent. I'd like my opponent to explain why God throws out a commandment, then promptly orders his people to violate it (Exodus 20 - Ten Commandments, Exodus 25 - God orders graven images). Since there is no set in stone (har har) edition of the ten commandments (the Jews, Catholics, and Protestants all divide them differently) my opponent has no grounds on which to claim that Catholics "altered the ten commandments". In fact, the Catholic edition is closer to the original Jewish edition because it doesn't say anything about making graven images, which obviously weren't the affront to God my opponent believes them to be. Idolatry My opponent obviously believes all sculptors are horrible, evil, hell-bound individuals. He also adds a bunch of assertions with no sources for his first bit there, so I'll just dismiss them by saying "No". Observe Leviticus 26:1 from the New American Bible: "Do not make false gods for yourselves. You shall not erect an idol or a sacred pillar for yourselves, nor shall you set up a stone figure for worship in your land; for I, the LORD, am your God. " It is obvious this means "Idols are not gods to be worshipped, so don't" but my opponent is claiming it means you can never make anything out of stone. You decide which makes more sense. Clearly my opponent thinks God holds some great hatred for images for some bizarre reason, and I sure do hope my opponent has never drawn anything in his life. Anyway, his own verse says "and putteth it in a secret place", so if I make an image and hang it on my fridge I should be safe. Unbiblical Rituals 1. Priests Priesthood is voluntary and Eastern rite priests can be married. 2. Clergy-laity My opponent proceeds to claim that scripture teaches that there must be no divisions in the Body, then cites scripture that does nothing to prove his point (seemingly chosen at random because it contained the words "priest" and "priesthood"). Sure we may all be priests, but even the early church appointed bishops, as will be evidenced by a ton of random quotes I will now pull up. "The blessed apostles, then, having founded and built up the Church, committed into the hands of Linus the office of the episcopate. Of this Linus, Paul makes mention in the Epistles to Timothy. To him succeeded Anacletus; and after him, in the third place from the apostles, Clement was allotted the bishopric. " - Against All Heresies, St. Irenaeus"Follow your bishop, every one of you, as obediently as Jesus Christ followed the Father. Obey your clergy too as you would the apostles; give your deacons the same reverence that you would to a command of God. Make sure that no step affecting the Church is ever taken by anyone without the bishop’s sanction. The sole Eucharist you should consider valid is one that is celebrated by the bishop himself, or by some person authorized by him. Where the bishop is to be seen, there let all his people be; just as, wherever Jesus Christ is present, there is the Catholic Church. " - Letter to the Smyrneans, St. Ignatius of Antioch"When a deacon is to be ordained, he is chosen after the fashion of those things said above, the bishop alone in like manner imposing his hands upon him as we have prescribed. In the ordaining of a deacon, this is the reason why the bishop alone is to impose his hands upon him: He is not ordained to the priesthood, but to serve the bishop and to fulfill the bishop's command. He has no part in the council of the clergy, but is to attend to his own duties and is to acquaint the bishop with such matters as are needful. . . . On a presbyter [priest], however, let the presbyters impose their hands because of the common and like Spirit of the clergy. Even so, the presbyter has only the power to receive [the Spirit], and not the power to give [the Spirit]. That is why a presbyter does not ordain the clergy; for at the ordaining of a presbyter, he but seals while the bishop ordains. " - St. HippolytusMatthew 23:8-11 reads"(8) As for you, do not be called 'Rabbi. ' You have but one teacher, and you are all brothers. (9) Call no one on earth your father, you have but one Father in heaven. (10) Do not be called 'Master'; you have but one master, the Messiah. (11) The greatest among you must be your servant. "I counter with 1 Corinthians 4:15, which says"Even if you should have countless guides to Christ, yet you do not have many fathers, for I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel. " 3. Words and Grace My opponent's claim is again sourceless. As I wrote in our last debate: "If any one saith [says], that without the prevenient inspiration of the Holy Ghost, and without his help, man can believe, hope, love, or be penitent as he ought, so as that the grace of Justification may be bestowed upon him; let him be anathema [excommunicated]. " - Council of Trent The Bible Alone is an untenable position My opponent says he uses the Bible alone, but that's obviously not true. For starters, there are at least three competing Bibles that I know of (Orthodox, Catholic, Protestant), and since none of them says anything about the others the decision to pick a Bible is made without using the Bible. Equally damning, the Bible nowhere says that the Bible alone is enough, therefore to reach that conclusion my opponent again would have had to go beyond the Bible. Therefore, his own position is untenable. ConclusionThat's all for this round.
