Chris at Speaker's Corner returns again with Jay Smith to talk about another area which is terrifying Muslims presently, especially in the West and on the Internet, and it's known as the "ISLAMIC DILEMMA". The arguments for the Islamic Dilemma aren't new, as they were used by John of Damascus back in the 8th century, and were repeated by Dr Carl Pfander in the 1800s. What's more, many of us who have been engaging with Muslims publicly have been using the arguments within the "Islamic Dilemma" for quite a few years in our interactions with Muslims. But recently, David Wood has resurrected the "Dilemma" and made it front-and-center in his work on the Internet, where many of his followers have picked up his ideas and "run with them" in their own ministries, particularly on the Internet and on YouTube. Chris is one of David Wood's ardent followers, and so has taken upon himself the task of collating the ideas behind the Islamic Dilemma and is at present putting them into book form, with the hope that the book will be published within the next few months. So, what exactly is the 'Islamic Dilemma'? Chris unpacks it brilliantly within this video. © Pfander Centre for Apologetics & Polemics - US, January 29, 2025 (127,900)
