Ramban VS Pablo Christiani, the 1263 Barcelona Disputation

By order of King James I of Aragon (Spain), Ramban (Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman, 1194-1270) was compelled to participate in a public debate, held in the king's presence, against the Jewish convert to Christianity, Pablo Christiani. His brilliant defense of Judaism and refutations of Christianity's claims served as the basis of many such future disputations through the generations.
Because his victory was an insult to the king's religion, Ramban was forced to flee Spain. He came to Jerusalem, where he found just a handful of Jewish families living in abject poverty, and revived the Jewish community there. The synagogue he built in the Old City is in use today, and is perhaps the oldest standing synagogue in the world.

The Jews were forced into these "disputations" They would much have preferred to be left alone.

That is pretty easy when a smooth liar debates against Christianity and won't think twice before lying his way out of any situation.
