Why I Didn’t Do A Video On The “CES Letter”

Описание: This video discusses why I didn’t do a single video addressing all the issues in the "Letter to a CES Director” (a letter containing many criticism of the church written to a CES director). Everything in the attack has been covered through the collective videos on the channel, but this is also part of the problem - its easy and quick to spew out a long list of attacking questions, but the explanations take time and effort to understand, which is why the attack can be so successful in our world today (research is shared on how the internet is changing our brains, shortening our attention span, and affecting our ability to do in-depth research and critical thinking). Also addressed are effective ways and examples of handling a faith-crises that can arise from these types of attacks.
