I’ve read this twice now (the bold ‘Edit’ made me check again), and each time I first read it as a claim that the vicar is a good debater. (Man, he could out-argue a six-year-old!) Then I think again.
:-) It was a statement about the other members of the church (who I suspect couldn’t), not about the vicar (who is smart and knowledgeable and an excellent fellow).
