Venom told his subscribers that the reason atheists were opposing his own charity drive was out of pure malice. Lets prove him wrong, and demonstrate to his subscribers why hes wrong, by having atheist and Christian alike raise more money for malaria relief then venom can for his own selfish use. If we the YouTube community can raise more money than he can, then that will send a message both to him and his subscribers telling all of them that we who oppose the detestable actions of VFX are more than capable of doing good, that we are more than capable of performing acts of charity, and that his polemics about how atheists are corrupting his charity for malicious reasons is completely indefensible.

But above all else, please do it for the people who have to live alongside this horrible pathogen. We who are mothers and fathers know that we would do anything to protect the lives of our children. We want them to grow up happy and healthy. We know that if we lived in such conditions, we would do whatever it takes to protect our children. Those mothers in Africa want to protect their children just as much as you would if you were in that situation. However, they cannot do it without your help. We may be separated from them by ocean, but we are united through our love and common humanity.

Together, we can achieve something that is both greater than ourselves, and greater than the corrupt actions of this charlatan.

Allow me to demonstrate on behalf of his collection method. He is seeking 500 monthly individuals to make donations to his ministry. Very likely many donors will only donate once. Thus he will likely encounter new donors every month. Thus all money collected after 500 donors are found MAY in fact be put to charity, however everything else can be kept, in accordance to his latest rules.

In conclusion I can only hardly ask for respect, however rather that you keep your mind open.

In regards to the Insult of the VFX ministry, I am concerned with blunt lies previously made by this very individual. A significant group of users on Youtube have taken action against the VFX ministry because of these lies, after false DMCA claims were filed on his behalf against several well known Youtube science education channels. It is now our fear that he is going back to his former self and continues to lie to users unable to check his facts.

Secular/humanist foundations and organizations perform in a similar fashion; we offer education, increate literacy and help shape free thinking, individuals. We help shape individuals that can come to their own conclusions on matters of faith, and science. Thus is our attempt to of collecting money for malaria, and raising awareness of our selves not the same as that conducted by every religious group over the past millennia?

[herzogf22]

If you would like to question our social contributions to society; or believe that that some of us have hidden ambitions, you are correct with this assumption. However, is that not the same as missionary work conducted by any religious organization? My conceptual understanding of missionary work is as follow: it begins with the donation of help, food, and aid in times of need; in return there is a permission to build a church and influence its people for decades to come.

I noticed in your response that you mentioned that it would be great if someone else pitched in on charity efforts. While I agree that there are some excellent Christian charity funds like the Salvation Army out there; there are also many secular/humanist foundations perusing similar goals [i.e. The Gates Foundation, and Richard Dawkins Foundation etc.]. Thus I hope that you were neither suggesting, nor implying that that those who do not share the Christian faith are not already active.

If you want to take it upon yourself to collect money for malaria sufferers, I think that's wonderful. With all the Christian charities that are already doing all they can to aid those in need it would be great to see someone else pitch in out of the goodness of their heart. However, something tells me you wouldn't be doing this if it didn't serve the double purpose of insulting VFX's ministry--which, by the way, is absolutely legitimate. For that reason I have little respect for your "charity".
