“I greatly appreciate Michael’s intelligence, good humor and solidly rational discussions of current events and the Christian viewpoint without speaking as though his own word is all truth.
His effective and direct use of Christian Biblical doctrinal teachings (versus a constant appeal to a the Roman Catholic Church) makes him a great talker for both Protestant and Catholic audiences.
THE OTHERS - I have enjoyed Ben’s discussions but let’s face it, Ben lacks humility that would make him likable (though he certainly has many reasons to be humble). His lack of humility often
Leads him to make dogmatic claims that make him appear to present himself as the wise and righteous judge - when often his answers fully demonstrate an intellectual overreach often seen among jerks... Even when he argues topics that relate to the Bible, his position of avoiding the Bible’s text to avoid circular reasoning puts him in a weird and unnecessary position. Other times he simply comes off as a snarky jerk... I expect he will mature and think his strong intellect will be of even greater value than it so now.
Andrew can be hilarious and immensely insightful even though has an (implicit?) motto that because he isn’t God he can’t judge - and then spends most of the rest of his talks judging. Don’t know what causes this but I guess it all depends on something or other..
Walsh is a character and often a pleasure to listen to, although I wish he understood the Biblical text better so his argumentation was more solid. He could be a lot more effective. A LOT more effective.”
