My thoughts on David Wood's transition away from the Youtube straitjacket, what conservative Christians can do to have their voices heard online, and why you shouldn't be deterred by man's opinion.

Acts17Apologetics 613K subscribers "Taliban jihadis aren't exactly known for their wonderful senses of humor. So when a simple question can send them into fits of laughter, we should take note. In a recent episode of Vice on Showtime, titled "Talibanistan," Vice News reporter Hind Hassan asked Taliban Commander Khatab about democracy and women's rights in Afghanistan. Commander Khatab's reaction is priceless. David Wood discusses the issue."

In 1940, George Orwell reviewed Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf." In explaining Hitler's rise to power, however, Orwell, explained much of what we see around us now. David Wood discusses the review and the lesson for today. #GeorgeOrwell #Hitler #MeinKampf

I explore the recent Youtube ban of David Wood, and explain the rationale behind the socialist-Islamist alliance of convenience.

Muhammad would roll over in his grave if he heard what Obama said! In a recent lecture, former U.S. President Barack Obama told his listeners that women are better than men and that the world would be better off if all countries made women leaders. Mr. Obama declared: “Now women, I just want you to know; you are not perfect, but what I can say pretty indisputably is that you’re better than us (men). . . . I’m absolutely confident that for two years if every nation on earth was run by women, you would see a significant improvement across...

How does a committed and passionate follower of Islam reconsider his faith and become an outspoken apologist for Christianity? This is a story of being introduced to Jesus through friendships, investigations, dreams, and visions. What follows is a conversation between the late Nabeel Qureshi (@NAQureshi), author of Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus (Third Edition) (Zondervan, 2018)—the first book to win ECPA Christian Book Awards® in both New Author and Non-Fiction categories—and his friend David Wood, who led Nabeel to consider the veracity of the claims of Jesus Christ. The discussion took place in Atlanta, Georgia, during the Evangelical Theological Society’s annual...

I haven't posted much in the last six weeks. Here's an update and an apology...

It’s not just high-profile anti-leftist political commentators such as Alex Jones, Paul Joseph Watson and Laura Loomer who are being banned from Facebook and de-platformed elsewhere. Facebook has forced a well-known Christian apologist off their platform for things he posted years earlier — such as death and rape threats he received and even a famous anti-Nazi picture — after repeatedly being reported by online by Muslim activist group targeting Christians. Apologist Dr. David Wood finally gave up Facebook because every time a suspension finished he was suspended again almost immediately, within hours, for older and older posts and for longer...

Following the New Zealand mosque shootings, Muslim apologists are telling their fans and subscribers to flag videos critical of Islam as "hate speech." Since criticizing Muhammad and the Quran doesn't qualify as hate speech, these apologists are really calling for false flags. With sites like YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Patreon banning, censoring, or restricting popular creators such as Sargon of Akkad, the Apostate Prophet, Tommy Robinson, Al Fadi, and many others, social media censorship is becoming a dangerous game. David Wood discusses the issue of censoring and deplatforming critics of Islam.

Some thoughts on the recent wave of social media censorship.

While the Women's March is supposed to be about women, the so-called "feminist" speakers openly promote Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran, which are history's greatest forces for misogyny and oppression. Since the event's organizers (Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour) are embroiled in controversy over antisemitic sentiments, the movement seems to be falling apart. David Wood discusses the issue.

A collection of low-lights from Mohammed Hijab's debate with David Wood about Tawheed and the Trinity.

I give my parting thoughts on the Mohammed Hijab-David Wood debate which took place at York College last week, as well as dissect the Muslim approach to "debate," and explain how the Bible does show Jesus's sonship and lordship.

A followup video to my earlier post, with more in-depth explorations of what I saw at the Wood-Hijab debate. I explain why Muslims are so intractable to persuasion, and why the "god" they propose is in fact no god at all.

I just want to say that David Wood-and the handful of Christians in attendance-exhibited the attributes that one would expect from people who were saved from death by Jesus Christ and the work of the Holy Spirit. While his opponent, and almost all of the Muslims in attendance-with the exception of the evening's host, who deserves to be commended for his efforts to impose civility-exhibited all of the attributes of those who are profoundly lost and who venerate a man who was imbued with wickedness, and served as the literal translator of the Devil. Even so, I hope that some...

David Wood is a former Atheist, current Christian apologist and a sharp but fair critic of Islam. He publishes episodes on Islam on his YouTube Channel Acts17Apologetics While David and I have differences in our beliefs, our moral standards, and the motivations behind our criticism of Islam, I like the way he criticizes Islam, the knowledge he possesses, and his attitude toward Muslims and other people. Join us for a very interesting exchange of ideas.

It's been 1 year since the passing of our beloved friend Nabeel Qureshi who was a convert from Islam to Christianity after looking closely at the evidence and arguments for both Christianity and Islam. He was well known for his conversation told in his New York Times best seller "Seeking Allah Finding Jesus" and also working for RIM Ravi Zacharias ministries. Join us in remembering Nabeel as we speak with his close friend and popular apologists, David Wood of Acts 17 Apologetics.

After 30 days of following Muhammad's teachings and eventually leaving Islam, the gang meets the man who started it all.

Is Allah above his throne? Is he on his throne? Is he in the heavens? Is he everywhere? Was he ever alone? Are these questions important? In this compilation by Anthony Rogers, Muslim scholars answer these questions and many others, while clarifying the meaning of the Quran.

Recently, Dr. James White of Alpha & Omega Ministries publicly condemned the YouTube series "Islamicize Me," starring David Wood, Jon McCray, Vocab Malone, and many others. While David, Jon, and Vocab don't usually like to get into inter-Christian disputes, the large volume of complaints by Dr. White's fans have convinced the Apologetics Avengers to reply.
