Today, I want to talk about a really interesting theological exchange between Protestant commentator Charlie Kirk and Catholic apologist Trent Horn. Recently, Charlie Kirk put out a video where he made some surprisingly lazy and superficial anti-Catholic arguments that got a lot of attention on social media. Honestly, I was a bit taken aback—how could someone as smart and well-read as Charlie fall into such simplistic reasoning? Thankfully, Trent Horn responded with an incredible video where he systematically broke down Charlie’s arguments with precision and clarity. It’s one of those moments where you just sit back and think, “Wow, that’s how you do apologetics.” Let’s jump into it!
To explore this exchange, I’ve selected three significant clips that highlight the core issues discussed. The first clip focuses on a provocative question posed by Charlie Kirk: "Am I a heretic if I don’t believe in the dogmas of Mary?" In the second clip, Charlie raises another intriguing point: "Even Jews, the keepers of the Torah, don’t agree with the Catholic canon of Scripture—so why should we?" Finally, the third clip addresses a modern trend, with Charlie asserting, "If I don’t like my pastor or agree with what he says, I simply go in search of another pastor."
