I had to look this denomination up. Reconstructionist Judiasm reads like atheism trying to convince both you and itself that it's pantheistic and failing. I can see a lot of modern, western secular Jews ascribing to this because it essentially gives them carte blanche to be as degenerate as they want under the pretense that Judaism has outgrown the need for God, but like, without forsaking the social advantages of being Jewish.
Probably the history yter I hope in highest regard as his narrow focus shows his actual expertise and has actually changed my perspective on a few elements of British history. Namely with regards to what the Anglo-Saxon invasion even is, with him saying it was mostly just an elite swap in the east but just a cultural change elsewhere in his Last Celts in England video. My only criticism is that his Mad Dogs of Cambria thing is not worthwhile as his co-host on it is just the worst, unfunny, libtard, just awful.
This guy's whole channel is great, dealing with a topic that matters to everyone (how we talk), but as a field of study doesn't garner much attention which allows inaccuracies to pass for truth quite easily.
There's no need given that you can be an atheist eat pork and curse God every day and still be considered more of a jew than a Jew who accepts Christ but keeps kosher.
The best historians are the ones who have narrow fields of focus when they foremost experts on the American Civil War who actually was responsible for one of the best documentary series on PBS on it he also had a colleague who liked doing an entire 9 hour series on prohibition back when PBS actually made high quality documentaries and not global **** schlock
What a great Christmas present
This is his best video so far since he actually quotes the original source who told all the weird shit.
It's honest to God my favorite thing to read on. The evolution of natural philosophy into science. You see people with limited information examining the world and coming to some silly conclusions, see how serious it was took, and eventually realize we'll be looked back on the same way.
I like to imagine that the Nebula CEO told him at gunpoint to make a video so they can upset all the losses attached to PhilosophyTube.
This view was the new hotness but genetic archeology has more or less debunked this view, there was significant and quick genetic turnover right around when the Anglo Saxon invasions happened.
I'm super late to this but - he's a British guy who generally believes the British Empire was a net-positive on the world and that if the United Kingdom did not get involved in WW2 it would have retained its empire instead of going into rapid decline.
