Is quoting "Rome Disagrees with You" (with no other input) in refutation of your debate opponent's statement theologically sound?

No. The opinions of Rome vary over time. Their opinions and stances are not valid theological points, they are political.

If you meant, "Rome"-the ESPN sports commentator..then yes
however, if "Rome" implies Roman Catholic implies the Pope....
of course not...
debate "X's" are facts, not opinions
no NFL points for even asking....
for staunch, traditional Catholics...the Pope is said to be infallible when speaking on matters of faith or morals only when [specifically] speaking "ex cathedra"
as a debate X....sad....

If Rome really disagrees, then yes.
But in a debate you should cite your sources.

No the only thing that matters is what the Bible says on any issue. The Bible is our standard, "Rome" is an opinion.

No. More needs to be said, such as WHY Rome disagrees, and believes as it does.

Theologically? I don't know. Logically? Not at all.
