Setting the Standard!
This is without a doubt the best modern debate on the American Civil War I have ever seen! Both sides are well prepared and versed in their subject areas. Rev. Wilkins presents an outstanding defense of the Southern position and destroys many of the myths that fill the 21st century mind about this terrible period in our national history. Rev. Marshall seeks to defend the Union position. However, to this reviewer, he seeks only to support the position of the victor. Wilkins uses many documented and little known historical facts which are seldom mentioned or taught in the public arena of present day education. I highly endorse this video as necessary to any course in America History! This work sets the standard is historical debate and education!

Fantastic!
This was a fantastic debate which really went to the core issues of the War Between the States, and beyond. After a rousing debate, Steve Wilkens went on to warn the American people of the liberties that we have lost, and exposing the myths that I grew up with, as a result of government schooling in the North. I do feel sorry for his opponent...he looked frustrated and was caught in some serious illogic...even refusing to answer a question at one point, but, because he took the stands he did, he needed to be answered. Steve Wilkens showed that Christians who believe the bible need not be ashamed by the moralists who condemn slavery outright, rather than man's ill treatment of fellowman. I also thought that Marshall was shown to have some serious disbelief of Scripture by refusing to yield his intellect. Both men were well prepared and I think tha this is one of the most important tools of learning that you can give someone who is a product of government schools, especially here in the North. Great job, by the way, with the scenes, mikes, and other logistics.
