How to respond to classical theists who dodge Open Theism arguments

To me it seems transparently dishonest. They know the Open Theist has a strong point, so instead of considering it and *gasp* possibly repenting of their classical theism, they essentially appeal to ignorance and avoid conceding a point.

Any advice in how to respond to such cases is greatly appreciated.

I've met Chris personally. He's a pretty cool dude, knows his theology well.

I love watching Chris Fisher debate, and I would love to meet him someday if he is ever vacationing down in Florida (where I live). My favorite debate (that I have seen so far) was when Chris and Will teamed up against a couple of Arminians.

My advice is to go in knowing that you're not going to get them to move an inch off their doctrine no matter what you say or how you say it.
