I watched the whole lot.
Without doubt it is a contender for the "Most Pointless YT Video Ever" award.
A goalless stream of conciousness ramble that seems to have no destination in mind (if there even is a mind behind it) peppered with a copious amount of bald assertions which, once made are abandoned without further mention, accompanied by a montage of still images which are not connected in any way to the (lack of) content.
It was, frankly, awful. It was as though the video had dimly heard of "production values" and wanted nothing to do with those.
It was so horrible that I would require you to pay me in sedatives to watch another. I would have to be drugged to endure such utter crap again.
If this were Rotten Tomatoes, you would have the distinction of being rejected for fear that this next level crap would break their website.
How about the audio presentation then? Well, I have no idea who thinks a dull lazy boring monotone is even vaguely interesting to anyone. The narration sounded like some bloke had been paid to read some screed and could not wait to cash his cheque and get the hell out of there. And this is the one success of the video. I couldn't wait to get out of there either.
Moving along to the actual content. Why? The content is irrelevant. Because the content is entirely lost in the continuous overload of utter BS of the presentation. It is actually quite difficult to even make out the sentences that are apparently spoken by a rather large and disinterested bee.
Is that sufficient constructive criticism or shall I move right along to the actual content?
so you did... like the video?
I'm not too sure as this disconnected rant could have been cut and pasted from the comment section of a bernie sanders speech. nothing here specifically ties my video to a seemingly plagiarized or perhaps so stereotypically used rant, it just seems like I read this somewhere before over, and over and over again... which is not saying too much as most of you are on a group think wave length anyway. (you all think alike and so too insult like a clone too)
So in the future when critiquing an individual's work it is often good or at least sometimes considered proof you are not just cutting and pasting from someone smarter than you, on say a rotten tomatoes review to include something from the video. maybe even a comment and a time index stamp. this adds authenticity and a bit more sting for the person who's ego is the fuel for their public video efforts.
generalization are dangerous specifically the one's you chose "speaks in generalizations." It is clear you assumed there was no way to support my assertions, It is clear you did not understand or did not watch what you said you did, especially when I give not only a word study but quote and screen capture the greek reference material used to define what prayer is verses supplication. which was the crux of the whole subject. Identifying what most of you think of as prayer as infact supplication and not prayer at all.
another critique of your critique is how you judge teaching methods. You clearly showed you hand when you claimed you could not follow the point. this is more of a critique on your cognitive ability for everyone who did get the point and have been arguing it for going on two weeks now in other forums. there is no shame is not being able to follow a point, however you look foolish and hypocritical when other do what you claim can not be done with the material provided. And yes i did leave several topics open ended as this is the purpose of the video. it is not the final word buta opening thread to a conversation. Which again is a superior teaching method as it forces thinking people to push their understanding of a subject to engage in the discussion.
As far as the monotone.. I unlike most youtubers am not seeking notoriety or celebrity therefore my voice should not add to nor take away from the subject matter or information provided. the purpose of the video is to communicate a subject matter more clearly with the use of visual aids.
