David Wood is a favourite of mine.

He is part of the conversation, so you can get ideas from him. He isn't a whole breakfast. He makes his money by cranking out videos, and there is a true saying: "Where words are many errors are not absent."

For example in his video about the Parler shutdown he overlooks and dismisses the warnings that Amazon gave ahead of time to Parler. He doesn't mention that there are multiple services which can host an app such as Parler and that Parler's executives chose to ignore warnings. They were at fault for their week long hiatus, because they kept ignoring what Amazon was saying to them. He takes the side of Parler, but why? Why not tell us the whole story? Its simply an oversight. He's got to keep making videos, and they have to appeal to his regulars.

Spoiler: His parler vid

On the other hand he does talk about this in a way that many people didn't. He provides part of the conversation that you cannot get from Huffpost or from MSN. You have to go to the right to get part of the story and to the left to get part of it. If you want dirt on someone speak to their enemy. Truth is shifted by spotlights when it is a shadow -- when it is presented by a presenter.

Most of his videos are about Islam. He benefits from the concerns of Christians about Islam, but he doesn't benefit (much) from other people who consider it to be just another religion or just another Christianity. Thus his videos get higher ratings when they are more exciting. Therefore he provides fears and dirt on some things but doesn't provide the entire picture.

I cannot deny that I have always appreciated him and his views.




PS. David Wood is my prince charming.
Christian, smart, handsome, easy-going, witty.

I've found there to be significant difference between an apologist and a biblical exegete.

I've found that when people turn David Wood's arguments against Islam back onto Christianity, in exactly analogous comparisons, he hems and haws and says it depends on interpretation and the historical context and *mumble mumble*. I haven't been too impressed with him. The cognitive dissonance makes it hard for me to take him very seriously.

 

[Kooky]

This guy seems to have found his niche catering to islamophobes. Kudos to him for eeking out some meagre income in this capitalist hellworld of ours, but I can't help but wish he didn't earn it by spreading ignorance and hatred.

I’m not a fan of apologetics

He is not an exception

Do you have a particular clip you want us to view?
Asking us to digest the entire play list for you seems a bit much.

In my opinion.
