I have avoided talking about VenomFangX (a Creationist, Fundamentalist Christian on YouTube) because, quite frankly, I believe he gets entirely too much attention (both positive and negative) as it is... and to be brutally honest, I don't like him.
The war between the atheists and the Christians has waged on for sometime now. As a Pagan, I am thankfully quite some distance from the fray and as such I have, I believe, a more impartial view of the situation.
The backstory, in brief, is this; Sometime ago, there was a dispute between VenomFangX and a user by the name of Thunderf00t (an atheist). The dispute was in regards to material that Thunderf00t had used in two of his videos, and VenomFangX's belief that it was illegal under Copyright laws for him to do so. VenomFangX then filed a DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) against Thunderf00t and reported him to YouTube. The videos in question were removed, and Thuderf00t's channel was suspended.
The following, is a video journal, of sorts, of this incident:
So... did VenomFangX fade away? Did he disappear into the shame of shadows, to be heard from nevermore? Of course not.
He has moved on, evolved into a YouTube-Evangelist, asking his subscribers to donate money to him for his street ministry which he vlogs on his channel, still espousing how evolution is a lie and claiming the earth is a mere 6,000 years old, designed by an "intelligent creator".
He was a liar... now he is a charlatan and a thief as well. A friend of mine on YouTube, dprjones, documents this evolution the best:
The atheists now have called for those who feel VenomFangx is disingenuous in his desire to donate any monies to charity, to aide them in a sort of video charity drive to be paid directly to the website of the charity they have chosen. Here is the link, via the video mirror on my channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imvtehVlucM
This drive is not to support atheism, it is a show of support of those in Africa who are suffering and need donations, as opposed to a scam artist who's only interest is in lining his own pockets.
Below are links of that charity, as well as the links of the YouTube users involved and users worth checking out.
