Matt Fradd's comments leave much to be desired

Matt Fradd is a Catholic speaker, evangelical in style. He is creator and host of the 'Pints With Aquinas' podcast. He is the author and coauthor of several books including Does God Exist? A Socratic Dialogue on the Five Ways of Thomas Aquinas. 

On his website there is a picture of him smoking what seems to be a giant cigar.

Mr Fradd is a convert to Catholicism. Having attended a World Youth Day in Rome he became a Catholic.

He has many videos on YouTube, including one called Defending The Faith.

In this 34-minute talk he tells the story about chatting with  Jehovah Witnesses who call to his home in San Diego. He refers to them as being 'beautiful Jehovahs Witness' and then says: "They weren't  terribly attractive physically, but I am sure they had good hearts, I'm not actually terribly sure of that either, I'm just trying to be charitable, they were decent people probably, maybe not, I don't know, didn't have a long in-depth conversation, so the two men,[the crowd laugh, he says 'shut up'], showed up with Bibles and we started talking about the faith."

It's not impressive, indeed anything but. And right through his talk on several occasions he uses profanities and vulgar words.

It was a comment he made while explaining about logical fallacies.

Matt Fradd is currently giving talks in Ireland.
