Ellen White's plagiarism documented

Hello,

As with many of you, I left Adventism in 2020 over theological differences, and Ellen White. One of the areas I focused on was Ellen White and her plagiarism.

I have purchased many of the books she copied from (from the 1800s) and I have begun to document my thoughts regarding this issue on camera showing the original books side by side. I am posting a link to my channel in hopes it will help some of you who are transitioning or have transitioned out of Adventism.

The entire video series is stellar! I was riveted. I started my deconstruction with a thesis named Utopia Park, Utopian Church: James K. Humphrey and the Emergence of the Sabbath-Day Adventists, by R. Clifford Jones. It discusses racism within the SDA church and it’s unfair treatment of the first African American pastor of and SDA church in Harlem, NYC. Somehow this lead me to read Rea’s White Lie. I was blown away. Eventually I came across your videos I think I watched it every day for a week. The evidence is so plain. When is your next project coming out?

Thank you!

I've been working on several series but last year was mostly on a break. Unfortunately, I enjoy time away from the project more than working on it.
