My youtube account has been updated with clips from various AiG videos which can be used online as a reference for others or as a jumping point for discussion. It has already served as both in the short time I have had it posted. I'll be sure to use them here as well, but feel free to go watch some of them or the older clips @ my youtube account.
On that note, I recently got into a discussion on youtube with a boy named Mike from the UK. Now, starting off a discussion by mocking or insulting someone is not new on "the tube", but instead of ignoring my response to his initial commentary, he replied! We have gone back and forth now over half a dozen times and it seems as though he is gaining a perspective. This is note-worthy in that it is rare and seems to be having an effect. What is not rare is that I have not heard back from him in some time now and he was usually very quick with a reply.
I always wonder what the effect was after a discussion like this? Did I say what I should have said? Did it read in the same way I wrote it? I never know the answers to these questions, but I try harder each time to be clear and kind. Clarity and kindness are two rare attributes in the average conversation about God, especially online. Pray that the Holy Spirit is working on his heart even if he doesn't come back to the conversation.
