Hey there. I think his family is actually Jewish but he was an atheist (although he was sent to Jewish school). He told his story in one of his videos
and explained that the Messianic prophecies were what led him to Christ and said that is what worked for him due to his Jewish background and
believing the prophecies.
I do remember what you mention about him quitting You Tube due to threats on his life and family from atheists. It was really sad.
Anyways, I think he's really nice and had the pleasure of talking to him on some occasions. He uses some of my research in his apologetics videos so
that is how we met.
I can understand why his detractors dislike him so much but that's just the way it goes. He's a passionate young man who doesn't back down,
adamantly defends his beliefs, and doesn't shy away from taking on opponents head on. He's not perfect- none of us are- and he's done some strange
things (like the Joker incident lol) but he's actually very nice. Some people are rubbed the wrong way by his personality/material but I understand
the reason why he is the way he is.
