Have you read any of his books?
Discussion
No, I’ve seen a couple lectures and a debate. Which is enough to assure me that I should not waste time or money on his content. Because if you’re familiar with palaeontology and evolution, then you clearly see him purposefully misleading his audience. Kinda like listening to Peter Schiff for bitcoin advice.
Just to be clear. I have no problem with his or anyone’s religion. Religion can obviously support people doing great things! But I take issue with anyone trying to trick others into aligning with their world view. Especially when they do it at scale by targeting education and politics.
oh so you're one of those people who is afraid to read books you disagree with, and then you tell other people to not read the books you also haven't read. Got it.
Nope 😅 I’ve literally watched him lecture with an open mind where he summarises his book. And watched more of his content to make sure I understood his reasoning! Then I felt like I needed to learn more about him because he didn’t seem to speak truly about the subjects he critiqued.
So no, I’m definitely not afraid to read his books.. But if his goal clearly wasn’t education, his goal is to trick people - why would I pay him for a book? That would be like paying for a flat earth book.. a book isn’t a force field. If an argument collapses in a lecture and under experimentation, it doesn’t magically become true once it’s written in a chapter.
Also, did I tell you not to read the book? In fact if it raises questions for you then I’d encourage it!
I think if you have time, then it would be a great idea to read his books along with the actual theories he disputes (explosive evolutionary events, modern theory of evolution, fossil preservation conditions and regions).
But if you follow his messaging alone, then you’ll never be exposed to the actual theories that he pretends to ‘disprove’. So you’ll have no way of verifying for yourself. You’ll be trusting just him with your world view - which is what all conmen want.
Anyway, it seems I annoyed you. And I am sorry about that
