A surprise visit to the Corner from AP better known on YouTube as the Apostate Prophet, AP (Ridvan Aydemir) is an Ex-Muslim, Turkish-German YouTuber known for critiquing Islam. I think he got an easy time as many of the top dawah Moslems were absent.
\nAnother particularly good afternoon that started with an influx of Orthodox Jews, all willing to talk and debate, and so Chris and I took up the challenge.
\nOther conversations took place during the afternoon with Moslem men, these seem to be productive and all was going well, then during my final polite and respectable conversation with a Moslem man another Moslem man decided he would join in, or rather hijack the conversation and turn it into a monologue, as a result it turned into one big mega argument with lots of shouting! Not the best way to finish the day but that is Speakers Corner.<\/p>\n
