My goodness, how you doing? 30 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,040 Yeah, we got Mr. Westford in the chat. 31 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,280 We got a down Browning in the chat. 32 00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:07,880 We got a Jason Unchained in the chat making a request I think. 33 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,880 But let's let's make the Jason happy. 34 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,320 From 1 Jason to another. I drank a beer. 35 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:24,440 I drank another beer. 3 beers, 4 beers. 5 beers. 6 beers. 7 36 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:29,640 beers. 8 beers. 9 beers. No beer drinking for me today 37 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,640 because it is my fasting day. Today is my Friday, might be 38 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:37,000 here Thursday, but there you have it, folks. 39 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:45,320 I, I got to be minded My, my fasts, my rules, my prayer rules 40 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,480 and all the other rules because, you know, I'm trying to trying 41 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,280 to do my best at being a good Christian. 42 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,120 I fail constantly. I've probably failed at least 43 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,520 four or five times this morning, but Lord knows we try. 44 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,760 And that actually brings us to the topic of the today's show, 45 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,600 who rules the world. As I said, when I ask that 46 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,280 question, many people have many different answers. 47 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,600 But that also brings us to a word concept fallacy. 48 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,480 And the word concept fallacy of the day is the word ruler. 49 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,720 Because when I say that word, many times people have an idea 50 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,640 of what a ruler is, not just the one that you know, tells, tells 51 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,120 distance or calculates millimeters and centimeters and 52 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,200 all the other meters and measurements. 53 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,480 But no, a ruler in the classic sense youth, I say ruler. 54 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,040 Most people think a king or an emperor or someone sitting on 55 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,000 the throne somewhere making all these decisions. 56 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,280 A sovereign, for example, and the dissident right sphere. 57 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,480 Because of because of guys like Curtis Jarvan and others, we got 58 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,080 introduced to the idea that a sovereign is he who chooses the 59 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:56,240 exception. Power is cop is in a constant 60 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,400 conversational topic. Who has it, who doesn't have it? 61 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,880 What kind of power you need to get things done in order to 62 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,120 achieve anything. I've talked about on this show 63 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,720 many times for many years now. I particularly like the Curtis 64 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,240 Jarvan example of energy, let's say, and I think he often times 65 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,720 uses uses political energy as an example just to get one thing 66 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,560 done. If you wanted to change the name 67 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:24,160 of a sign in DC from Martin Luther King Blvd. to Donald J 68 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,000 Trump Blvd., think of all the power and energy you'd need to 69 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,560 get one thing done. You can just conjure the example 70 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:32,559 in your head and you'll understand. 71 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,240 Like, that would take a lot to get that one thing done. 72 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:40,440 And that's kind of tells you exactly how much power is 73 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,760 currently in the hands of the system of anyone, you know, 74 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,640 running the show, supposedly, allegedly, you know, let's say 75 00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:50,160 that Donald J Trump is the ruler of America right now. 76 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,600 Well, he doesn't seem to have all that power. 77 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,360 So who rules? Is it the deep state? 78 00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:03,160 Is it lobbying group? Is it the ha ha, Maybe we'll get 79 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,880 into some examples. Certainly. 80 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,840 Maybe it's the tail wagging a dog. 81 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,960 Maybe it's the journalists. Maybe it's the occultists we're 82 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,800 going to talk about. We're going to look into Tucker 83 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,440 Carlson talking about the occult quite openly these days, which 84 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:22,360 is interesting. But we still have left with the 85 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,800 open question, who rules? Now, one of the key things about 86 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,240 rulership of any kind is authority. 87 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,800 You need authority in order to rule. 88 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,040 A ruler has authority. Now, either that authority is 89 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,800 granted to that ruler because of his position or it's earned. 90 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,880 And those things, those two distinctions are very important 91 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,520 because truly to have authority, real authority, let's call it, 92 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,280 you need to have two things operating at the same time. 93 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,200 You need responsibility and proper discernment. 94 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,720 If you don't have those two things and your authority is in 95 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,800 question because if you don't take responsibility or you 96 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,240 certainly don't have responsibility for the things 97 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:09,880 you preside over for your advice or for your actions, then the 98 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,360 authority just rests in the in your office and not in the 99 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,200 person. And this is kind of what has 100 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:23,080 happened to the, let's call it the modern liberal state is that 101 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:27,760 this shocking of responsibility, this movement of responsibility 102 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,480 away from the person and even away from the position, from the 103 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:36,200 office who rules? Well, no one, no one has any. 104 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,400 No one makes any real discernments. 105 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,560 It's discernment by committee. Well, now this committee is, is 106 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,600 the committee makes all these pronouncements, makes all these 107 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,480 decisions. We see COVID lockdowns, all 108 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,720 these other things that have happened over the last few years 109 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,520 on a global scale. Is it, is it, is it The Who, is 110 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,480 it Davos? Is it the WEF? 111 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:03,080 Is it all these little lettered acronym institutions and think 112 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,640 tanks and societies and elite structures. 113 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,440 Do they rule well? They seem to be at odds with 114 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,040 each other quite often or in conflict. 115 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,760 We just saw this with The Who, they wanted to pass this 116 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,800 widespread global movement, this, you know, health protocols 117 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,680 that they could just lock down places Willy nilly and they try 118 00:11:25,680 --> 00:11:29,240 to get this done and they couldn't get it done because 119 00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:32,680 people they, when they got everyone together to make this 120 00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:38,640 blanket system, everyone was at odds with each other. 121 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,880 There's a bit of a white pill here is that in order to get all 122 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,720 these horrible things and despotic things in motion, you 123 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,400 have to keep electing and putting more and more corrupt 124 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:56,400 people in charge. The problem with that is they're 125 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,440 corrupt. The only competency they 126 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,120 actually have is corruption, and you can't trust corrupt people, 127 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,840 and even corrupt people can't trust corrupt people. 128 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,640 So now they're left for the situation where no one trusts 129 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,600 each other. That's the other thing that's 130 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:15,600 required for rulership and proper authority is trust. 131 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,320 Responsibility and proper discernment leads to trust. 132 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,480 In the absence of trust, you have to rely on fear. 133 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,880 So false authority or authority that is granted by to the 134 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:36,800 position not earned but granted often relies on fear. 135 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:42,800 And that fear is, is is backed up by the promise of force or 136 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,320 violence. And again, violence doesn't 137 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,360 enforce, doesn't have to be physical, doesn't have to be an 138 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,720 application of kinetic force. I don't have to punch you in the 139 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,760 face in order to, for you to understand violence. 140 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,680 It can be violence against your position. 141 00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:59,520 It could be cancelling you out. Cancel culture is a form of 142 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,840 violence. And cancel culture doesn't even 143 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,400 have to exist just online. That's the mobilization, that's 144 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,120 the mob doing cancel culture. Cancel culture has existed quite 145 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,360 off, quite, quite well within institutions. 146 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:18,760 You speak out against a certain, let's say generally prescribed 147 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,000 science. Well, you get kicked out of the 148 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,040 Academy. Bye. 149 00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:30,760 No longer allowed to speak or hold the position to destroy 150 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,160 your name, destroy your, destroy your work. 151 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,520 Many such cases throughout history, just in just recent 152 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,880 times. You don't have to go back that 153 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,480 far. Five years, folks, it's only 154 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,560 been five years. Crazy, huh? 155 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,560 It's been five years and only five years at the same time. 156 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:55,800 So, and because of actually the events of five years ago, 157 00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,520 authority itself is becoming to question and perhaps for a good 158 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,880 reason, because we've lived in the system where we've 159 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,880 especially. I think this is even a sort of a 160 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,160 generational issue where Gen. Xers are a bit more 161 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,520 iconoclastic. We happened to come at a time 162 00:14:14,680 --> 00:14:18,960 when we kind of straddled 2 ages, let's say the the age of 163 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,840 the boomer and the tail end of boomerisms before the boomers 164 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:29,240 really took over in the in the 70s and 80s when they're kind of 165 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,720 coming into their own watch 30 something. 166 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,880 It's an interesting little piece of historical data. 167 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,800 It's ATV show from the 1980s. If you really want to see like, 168 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,760 and that was like when most boomers were in their some 169 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:46,040 something 30s in the 1980s. It's an interesting show. 170 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:50,480 Go watch it. The so the Gen. 171 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,120 Xers kind of straddled that world. 172 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:58,040 Our grandparents were often the silent or great generation. 173 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,720 So we still had a foot in sort of, let's call it the analog 174 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:08,000 history of, of Western society. And we were also coming of age 175 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,120 during a much more digital, much more modern version of the 1980s 176 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,000 and 1990s, turning a where the boomer, sorry, in the Gen. 177 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,840 X spectrum you fall. And we, so we start to, we 178 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:27,320 started to see the lies promoted by the propaganda and our live 179 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:35,320 reality that these things had consequences being, you know, 180 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,880 lock Lockheed, chick kids was a big thing in the 1970s and 80s 181 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,800 Divorcees, we were the first generation, we really went 182 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,040 through a big wave of divorces. So single, single parents, that 183 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:52,920 was a product of that too. You know, different kind of 184 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,240 family structures start to spring up during that 185 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,520 generation. So we started to see the 186 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:04,200 consequences of even, let's say, second wave feminism, just to 187 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,520 name one. But we started to see the 188 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,520 consequences in our own lives as we started to question things. 189 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,120 And I think when the defining spirits or defining 190 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,640 characteristics of Gen. X generation in general is that 191 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:24,280 we are sort of iconoclastic. Peter Thiel is a great, you 192 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:29,600 know, a symbol of that. Take all your sacred cows and 193 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,120 destroy them or question them, upend them. 194 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,120 You know, it's we're also sort of the product or the beginning 195 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:42,960 product of that postmodern movement in both art and culture 196 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,880 and philosophy and and scholastics where things started 197 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:51,280 to get much more obviously inverted into disastrous 198 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,680 effects. I'm not by the way, I'm not 199 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,160 saying this is good. It's not good or bad. 200 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,880 It's a thing. It's a thing that happened. 201 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:04,640 So this generation by and large is a generation of questioning 202 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,720 filled with a bit of resentment, certain, let's say anger at the 203 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,440 system to kind of lock them out a little bit. 204 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,800 And now quite a quite a few of those Gen. 205 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,680 Xers are becoming resurgent. So Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, 206 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,040 almost all the big names you can think of in in tech, even media, 207 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,240 Joe Rogan, Gen. Xer, you know, the list goes on. 208 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,120 So the interesting thing is, and this is something that Charles 209 00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:35,600 Padilla has said, is that now we're going to entering this 210 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,280 time period where you have a Gen. 211 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,440 X head on a Gen. Z body. 212 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,880 The millennials, which are much more aligned with the Boomers in 213 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:53,000 many ways, who respect the experts, which is just a 214 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,720 different way of calling of, of saying authority. 215 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:58,600 The experts have authority. Why? 216 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,640 Well, they're experts. They have a, they have a piece 217 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,960 of paper from a accredited school. 218 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,400 You got to listen to them. How many times did you hear 219 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,000 this? Well, you're not a scientist, 220 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,200 you're not a doctor. Have you even been there? 221 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,640 This is the default defense system. 222 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,800 If you don't have the proper accreditation, you don't get to 223 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,520 speak. Sure, you can have an opinion, 224 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,680 but opinions are like a holes, right? 225 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,480 Everyone's got one. Doesn't matter if you're right, 226 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,480 doesn't matter if what you're saying and, and your prediction 227 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,160 and your models and all the rest of it always seem to produce 228 00:18:33,360 --> 00:18:39,880 actual results. Do you have the authority to 229 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,120 speak granted to you by a third party? 230 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,280 This is very much a boomer mentality and you see it 231 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,480 reflected in the millennials. This is where we get into, you 232 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:56,080 know, debating a millennial is it's like, it's perpetually like 233 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:57,440 debating a woman. Don't. 234 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,720 Why bother? Because they're going to try to 235 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,920 get you on something. You say it's the sky is blue. 236 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:07,720 They say yes, but not at night. You're like, OK, yeah, you got 237 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,640 me. Can we move it along? 238 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:17,400 This little parsing mentality? And it comes down to that sort 239 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,640 of seeking authority, because if they can say that you got 240 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,560 something wrong, they take your authority away to speak at all. 241 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:29,040 But anything ever again, many such cases. 242 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:36,320 So if authority, we say proper authority, vests in those who 243 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:41,800 take absolute responsibility and have a track record of proper 244 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:50,760 discernment equaling trust, you can see why in the more modern 245 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,000 world this has been eroded. They like to people like to take 246 00:19:55,000 --> 00:20:00,240 shortcuts. Even the idea of an expert, of 247 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,800 an accredited expert APHDA doctorate, a someone who has 248 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:08,200 that sort of, you know, thing on the wall. 249 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:14,200 It used to mean something because the piece of paper 250 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,760 inferred. A certain amount of 251 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,720 responsibility and proper discernment through their 252 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,200 training, through their practice. 253 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,480 And you had to take responsibility because quite 254 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:31,520 often you live there, you know, a town doctor lived with their 255 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,200 people. So if he's starting to give 256 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,880 medicine that's killing people, people know where to go. 257 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,720 You get into bigger structures like cities or now online, well, 258 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,040 you have distance from that responsibility. 259 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,760 You can say a lot of things. You can just say things. 260 00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:56,520 You can just do stuff someone's saying. 261 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,520 Not all of us millennials, yes, yes. 262 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:06,600 But you just proved it. Not all of us millennials are 263 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:11,600 bad. Do you want to get into the 264 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,280 minutia? Which should we pull the graph 265 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,400 with percentages? It's not it's not calling you 266 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:31,480 out FF, but you just not all but most right. 267 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:37,280 The, the, I just derailed myself. 268 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:47,160 The so, so when we have this buffer zone where no one can 269 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,280 take, no one takes absolute responsibility. 270 00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:52,760 And we're seeing this now with the Trump indictments, even with 271 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:57,440 going after Obama or this or that or people behind this thing 272 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,520 or that thing in the 2020 election and you know, etcetera, 273 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,040 right? And people are sitting there 274 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,520 going, well, where are we going to get arrest? 275 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,520 It's like, well, who, who can you arrest? 276 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,920 I mean, you've arrested comedy. That's interesting. 277 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,800 So you make a scapegoat and you're going to have to do that. 278 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,160 You're going to have to find one or two people and put all the 279 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:17,240 sins on them, because the sins are now spread out to such a 280 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:23,240 degree. But you can't discern who 281 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,040 exactly is at fault here. Now, maybe is they're all at 282 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:27,800 fault. You make that. 283 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,320 Just make that a pronouncement, Sure. 284 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,640 But then you have to arrest everybody. 285 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,120 Do you have the power to do that? 286 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,120 Go back to changing this sign of from Martin Luther King Blvd. to 287 00:22:42,120 --> 00:22:45,840 Donald J Trump Blvd. How much power do you have? 288 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,480 Who has this power? Who has this authority? 289 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,320 Who has the sovereignty? Is it Donald J Trump? 290 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,040 Is it DOJ, is it State Department? 291 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,680 Who where? No. 292 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:03,000 I would love to see at least one government in the world other 293 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,960 than maybe El Salvador, say we're seizing all the power, 294 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,200 we're taking all this authority and granting it, putting it in 295 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,200 one position. And from this position we're 296 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:18,000 going to rule because rulership. If you've been following the 297 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,800 show, you know that rulership or ruler is one of the three key 298 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,840 components, one of the three pieces of the Reggio. 299 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,000 I say that's necessary for civilization. 300 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:33,120 A ruler, a region which includes people, culture, history, 301 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,640 language, borders, and a religion. 302 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,080 And you need religion because religion is your moral center. 303 00:23:42,360 --> 00:23:46,080 It's something that pre exists. You is there when you're alive, 304 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,680 obviously and will go on well after you're gone. 305 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,520 Connects you to the divine, gives you a place to go to and 306 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:57,040 should hold everyone together, both ruler and the people. 307 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:03,840 Gives a region a, a reason for being, because without it, 308 00:24:04,360 --> 00:24:06,960 you're just kind of lost. You're just doing stuff to do 309 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,760 stuff. And yes, where rulership gets 310 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,160 dangerous because if you have a rogue ruler who's just doing 311 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:19,680 things because it's, you know, seems like a good idea at the 312 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:24,920 time, but where are we going? Where is this progress? 313 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:30,640 What is the end result? And if you get some bad people 314 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,120 in there with some bad ideas, well, the end result becomes 315 00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:36,720 some bad things by default. We're going to get into that 316 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:44,600 when we talk about with Tucker. The the other big aspect of 317 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:52,040 authority is that it permeates all those 3 sectors of the 318 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,160 Reggio. In religion. 319 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:58,920 There's a quote and some people have said this is from the Saint 320 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:06,440 John Christostum, although maybe the the people have investigated 321 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,080 this kind of claim and haven't found him saying this directly 322 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,160 in his writings. So we don't know where this came 323 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,840 from. But the quote is more is more or 324 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,920 less this. The road to hell is paved with 325 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:20,200 the bones of priests and monks and the skulls of bishops are 326 00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:22,680 are the lampposts that light the path. 327 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:29,680 Sounds kind of a cob. It's more or less a warning 328 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:35,760 saying that improper guidance and authority granted into the 329 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,360 priests, the monks and the bishops and the hierarchy of the 330 00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:41,480 Church. Well, once you're given that 331 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,240 position, you now have a tremendous amount of 332 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:49,480 responsibility. And that responsibility is 333 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,720 expressed through proper discernment. 334 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,640 When I was sort of doing the show and decided to move the 335 00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:00,160 show into much more Orthodox direction, I had a conversation 336 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,800 with my priest, Father John. He's my spiritual father. 337 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,880 And, and part of that conversations basically said to 338 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,640 me more or less bluntly that I don't have the authority to 339 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,240 speak of many things within the church, you know, so when it 340 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,760 comes down to talking about, you know, theology, all the rest of 341 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,960 it. So I have to be careful what I 342 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,960 say and how I say it. I can speak personally of my own 343 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:30,240 personal experiences within the church or, you know, my 344 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:35,480 understandings of, of XY and Z, but I have to be extremely 345 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:42,040 careful now, one, because it reflects on my catechism and 346 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,280 reflects on, you know, my eventual baptism if that ever 347 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,680 comes. But it also reflects on my 348 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,960 priest because he has responsibility on my soul. 349 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,440 It's his teachings and his discernments and his his 350 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:02,840 fatherly shepherding that will guide me. 351 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:08,560 So if I'm going off the off the path, he has the responsibility 352 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,720 to bring me back in there. This already happened to me, you 353 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,920 know, once or twice or I've gotten a message. 354 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:22,000 Hey, about that thing you said. Oops, never so humbling at age 355 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,160 48 when you're seeing you're a grown ass man, have a grown ass 356 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,080 man habits and I don't have to ask permission. 357 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,920 Yeah, oh, yes, you do. And it's good. 358 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,240 It's good to realize that I don't have to take 359 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:41,680 responsibility for certain things because I haven't earned 360 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:45,480 it yet. Now I have to take 361 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:49,720 responsibility for what I say and what I do, of course, but 362 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:54,320 that gives me much more. I want to say hesitancy, but not 363 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,840 in a bad way. Much more, let's say caution 364 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,640 over what I say and what I do or how I say it or how I do it. 365 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,880 Because I also understand not only does it reflect on me, 366 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,480 which maybe I can just get over or brush off, but it reflects on 367 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,000 other people as well. And keeping that in mind is very 368 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,080 important both for the catechism, for the catechumen, 369 00:28:16,360 --> 00:28:19,040 for the layman, for the, and for the priest. 370 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:28,280 And all the way up, let's get to, let's get to Father Josiah. 371 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:37,760 We're going to talk about rotten priests because often times, and 372 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,200 you hear this with the Protestants, what they're 373 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:46,560 rejecting ultimately is this idea of the of the authority of 374 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,600 the Church fathers of tradition itself. 375 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,520 They think the authority is vested in the Bible. 376 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,440 So if we have the Bible, that's that is the that is the book of 377 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:02,080 authority and anyone who can read it and use it to quote mine 378 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,880 or whatever have you is now boring. 379 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:09,640 This the authority of the book being granted the authority of 380 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:13,720 the Bible and of from the Bible tradition and religion and God 381 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:18,520 and all the rest of the stuff. Why that falls apart, of course, 382 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:22,320 is that there's no, there's no good reason for you to ever 383 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,400 think that, you know, as a newcomer, day one Christian or 384 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,280 even a lifelong Christian who's just been reading this book, how 385 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,680 can you discern the Bible from using the Bible? 386 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,680 It's a little difficult. So even your most ardent 387 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,680 Protestant is usually going to defer to some thought leader or 388 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,680 some priest or pastor, I should say, or, you know, some 389 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,320 influencer even. Well, do they have authority? 390 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,160 Then? Does George Jenko have 391 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,200 authority? If you listen to him and quote 392 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,560 him, then you're saying that he has an authority that you're 393 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,120 using. See how this gets tricky? 394 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,000 And then the question you'd have to ask yourself is, does George 395 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,320 Jenko have responsibility for your soul? 396 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:18,000 And I would say no. And he would say, no, I'm sure I 397 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,160 don't have responsibility for that. 398 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:20,800 Well, if you don't have responsibility for that, then 399 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:25,120 why are you saying this stuff with such assuredness? 400 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,440 Let's say, and I'm just calling him out just to use a name. 401 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,120 But there's many such many such cases, you know, something I 402 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:36,000 always have to be careful of. I know I come across in a 403 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:37,840 certain way. So people are listening to the 404 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,640 show or listen to me listen, you know, follow me online and could 405 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,880 be easily, I could easily make lead people astray. 406 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:49,840 Not through intention, but am I taking responsibility for their 407 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:56,880 spiritual soul, for their life? And the answer is, well, no, but 408 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,880 I should. But I can't because I don't have 409 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,600 the authority to do such a thing. 410 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,320 See, gets tricky. So when we talk about who rules, 411 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,920 we're going to get into all the, all examples here. 412 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,160 So as I say, who rules? And, you know, the check goes, 413 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,080 it's the this and this the that, and it's the GS and the do. 414 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,840 And you're all right in a, in a sense that there are many 415 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,480 different groups and many different people, you know, 416 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,240 historic and current and probably future, who are looking 417 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:35,120 to seize authority, who we give authority to, whether we like it 418 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,760 or not 'cause we're putting them on a pedestal. 419 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,560 Whenever you give them power by simply saying that they have 420 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:48,960 power over you, by recognize that power over you, you're 421 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:53,320 granting them authority in one way, shape or form, even in, in 422 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,720 a negative sense, even as, even as an iconoclastic in a, in a 423 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:03,200 iconoclastic frame, you grant them authority by granting them 424 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:08,360 power. But how do we seize that power? 425 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,600 How do we take that authority away from them? 426 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:14,880 Do they have it in the first place? 427 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,560 This comes down to who are the rules here? 428 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:25,080 Who's in charge? Who really has power? 429 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,280 We'll get to that. Let's get to Father Josiah 430 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:36,200 talking about rotten priests, since we brought up the the road 431 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,920 to hell is paved with the bones of priests and bones. 432 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,200 Hey everyone, God bless you. Thanks so much for tuning in. 433 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:48,960 I have a reflection for you that I have prepared that I hope will 434 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:52,640 strengthen you called Rotten Priests. 435 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,760 Exhibit A. Exhibit A. 436 00:32:56,040 --> 00:33:00,800 This reflection comes from my reading of a new book by Father 437 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,520 Pat Reardon. God bless Father Pat in every 438 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,680 way. Bad Examples from the Bible is 439 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,560 the title of the book, and I've enjoyed it very much. 440 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,920 He has a reflection, a short chapter in that new book 441 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,080 dedicated to, well, priestly betrayal. 442 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,560 Priestly betrayal as found in the Scriptures. 443 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:24,760 You know, once a week or so our COO sends me a collection of all 444 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,960 the emails that have come in that she thinks I should read to 445 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,920 patristicnectar.org and I read through them. 446 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,040 I try to pray through each e-mail. 447 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:38,120 I can't respond to them, but I like to look at them and at 448 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,840 least lift up in prayer and make the cross for this or that 449 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,040 person. Often there are prayer requests 450 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,560 that come in and sometimes questions that readers and those 451 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,840 who are watching PNP would like me to address. 452 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:55,520 Sadly, over the years of doing this, I have received many 453 00:33:56,400 --> 00:34:00,920 emails about the priests and bishops of this or that person 454 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,880 and this or that parish or diocese around the world and 455 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,080 about different scandals that have happened there or things 456 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,760 that this person or that person has witnessed or experienced. 457 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,040 And they asked me to pray for them or ask my opinion about 458 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,320 them. It is true. 459 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,560 It is true. Many of these missives document 460 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,040 that we priest sometimes are not repenting as we should and not 461 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,480 ministering from a position of repentance. 462 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,000 And for us priests that is extremely dangerous. 463 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:36,159 Of course, just to be a a normal believer and to not repent is 464 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,400 certain doom. To be a priest, to assume the 465 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:46,600 mantle of a shepherd and not to live that vocation from our own 466 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,280 repentance. This is something different. 467 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,520 This is something much, much more dangerous for the one who 468 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,840 is practicing it. So I'd like to speak. 469 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,880 That's another key point here. And Father, I just kind of 470 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,920 touched on it. Repentance within the Christian 471 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:07,440 frame, repentance means to change, to realize 11 sins, to 472 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,240 confess to either to God through prayer or through to your 473 00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:17,000 spiritual father through confession, and to then make 474 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,680 make changes because you don't want to continue doing the thing 475 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:23,520 you're doing. That that's what true repentance 476 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,240 is. You stop doing that thing, or 477 00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:28,760 you're at least trying. You do a 180. 478 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,600 Without repentance, there can be no true forgiveness. 479 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,280 People can say you're forgiven and I can, you know, you do it 480 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,240 wrong to me and I can let that go on a personal level and not 481 00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:46,160 hold it against you, but just saying you're sorry and not, but 482 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,240 and then continuing the thing you're doing. 483 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,840 And we, I think we all know someone who's done that in the 484 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,160 past, right? Someone is, is a classic 485 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,080 Canadian example. You know, Canadians always say, 486 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,600 Oh, sorry, sorry as they're butting your head in line. 487 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,440 Oh, sorry, mate. Oh, sorry, sorry buddy. 488 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,440 I got to get going. Hey, just just getting through 489 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:04,840 there. I got to get my Tim's. 490 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,920 I'm running late, sorry, and they're still doing the thing. 491 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,840 So even though I can forget, I can forgive you and make all the 492 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,360 excuses in the world for you. But if you're continuing to, to, 493 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,320 to exhibit that behavior, then you're not really sorry, are 494 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,120 you? You're just saying it because 495 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:27,120 it's the thing you say and you want the forgiveness and the 496 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,920 allowance that doesn't come with actual any, you know, sacrifice 497 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:35,520 or changing anything or taking responsibility for your actions. 498 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,560 Oh, no, no, no, no. Just forgive me and we can move 499 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,400 on and pretend like this thing never happened. 500 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:48,200 To you a little bit about rotten priests, about bad priests, and 501 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,480 I'll start with myself. If we're going to talk about bad 502 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:55,720 priests, I think that I certainly have to be listed as 503 00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:58,000 one of those. I can honestly say that there 504 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:04,920 has not been a day, not a day in my 3 decades plus of service to 505 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,880 the Lord and His people that I have felt worthy of the office 506 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:13,200 of priests or not deeply convicted of my own 507 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,200 inadequacies. Not a day. 508 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:20,280 Even as I was this morning thinking about this and what to 509 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,720 say. I wept. 510 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:29,640 I wept. The priesthood is so awesome, 511 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:38,760 and service of Christ and care for the flock is such a great 512 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:43,800 honor that I'm simply not worthy of having anything to do with 513 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:45,720 it. I'm sure most priests feel the 514 00:37:45,720 --> 00:37:47,600 same way. I thank God. 515 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:52,200 I absolutely thank God that once a year on the cusp of Great 516 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,440 Lent, we have the service of Forgiveness Sunday and I have 517 00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:01,920 the opportunity to ask forgiveness one by one of every 518 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,880 one of my parishioners, making a prostration in front of them and 519 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:07,600 asking them to forgive me, a Sinner. 520 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,120 And that I get that they give it to me. 521 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,320 I've never had a parishioner come to that service and say, 522 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,240 no, Father, I'm not going to forgive you. 523 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,200 Nor have I had a parishioner come to that service and not 524 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,040 also ask my forgiveness. Praise the Lord for. 525 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:23,880 That would get awkward, wouldn't it? 526 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,720 No, Father, No. Not forgiving you. 527 00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:33,800 Yeah, just give an example. Father Josiah, I know some 528 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,520 people. Matthew Erickson attended his 529 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:39,040 parish briefly while while he was still living in California. 530 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:43,240 I've known many other people who've spoken absolutely highly 531 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,920 of Father Josiah, like being the presence of him is being the 532 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:51,360 presence of a very holy man. And even he says that he's 533 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,320 unworthy of the responsibility and the position and the 534 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,920 authority given granted him as a priest. 535 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,200 Why? Because when you take full 536 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,600 responsibility, when you take on that cross of responsibility, 537 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,560 not just for your actions, personal responsibility for your 538 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:14,600 actions or for words, but for responsibility for others, that 539 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:19,320 becomes a very, very heavy load. One of the reasons I think we 540 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,320 see a bereft of responsibility of, of men within the within the 541 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:30,520 category of Father is that there's two things happening at 542 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:37,840 the same time. 1 The modern world's telling us that our 543 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,760 wives, our women in general and other people have as much 544 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:47,360 authority and responsibility and, you know, quality and power 545 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:51,160 and all the rest of it as we do. They should be treated that way. 546 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,400 At the same time, in reality, the actual reality is that we 547 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:01,160 bear all that responsibility. Ultimately, the man and the 548 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:06,080 father, the fall of the house or the man bears absolute total 549 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,080 responsibility. That's reality. 550 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:14,120 And you can say everything else and you can dress it up any way 551 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:18,760 you want, but we all know, man, woman and everyone else, 552 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:23,160 children too, that the father bears absolute responsibility. 553 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,800 Because when it comes down to it, if anyone's going to have to 554 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:33,080 sacrifice their life to defend the family from an intruder or 555 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:38,160 run into a, you know, burning house and all the rest of it, it 556 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,120 must be the father. Not that it should be. 557 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:51,410 It must be as a seat of true responsibility, responsibility 558 00:40:51,410 --> 00:40:56,370 for others, the safety, physical and otherwise, of others. 559 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,160 Now, I'm not saying that woman can't do that in terms of, you 560 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,720 know, physically can't do it. But she ought not. 561 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,240 It's not her role. It's not her position. 562 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:14,040 Men go to war. Men sacrifice their bodies. 563 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:25,560 We were built for it. Men are built for suffering, and 564 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:30,840 it's only through suffering that we get better, that we achieve, 565 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,760 that we understand where we're lacking and try to fill the 566 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:41,720 space, level up. It's why men in the modern age 567 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,680 are so attracted to hard video games. 568 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,960 The Dark Souls, the Silk song I've been playing. 569 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,880 Why? Why do you want this masochistic 570 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:54,640 enjoyment? Why is this entertaining? 571 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,360 Why is this enjoyable? Because it's hard. 572 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:01,240 It's it's brutal. It requires something of you, 573 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,960 your time, your patience, your perseverance. 574 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,160 These are virtual. I'm not saying this is an 575 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:12,800 adequate replacement for fatherhood or anything else, but 576 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:17,520 in a virtual sort of what pastime, something that's 577 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:21,120 supposed to be fun, are fun, has to be challenging. 578 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,640 There's it has to be a degree of suffering to our fun. 579 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,280 And those who enjoy those games understand it. 580 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,920 Those who hate those games. Almost everyone who says that 581 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,520 Dark Souls should have an easy mode, they all fit into certain 582 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,080 category and they're all beings of the flesh, all of them. 583 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,480 They don't want the challenge. They don't want to feel 584 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:45,960 inadequate. Ever. 585 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,680 They don't want to be reminded that they aren't as good at 586 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,720 something that they think they should be a good at for no good 587 00:42:53,720 --> 00:42:55,800 reason. There's no good reason to think 588 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,360 that you should ever be good at anything. 589 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,520 Even if you've mastered something. 590 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,760 You've spent thousands of hours doing a thing. 591 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,560 You know me with the podcast and all the rest of it. 592 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:07,360 Why do I think I have to be good at it? 593 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,800 I don't deserve to be good at it. 594 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,160 I don't deserve your money or attention or any of that. 595 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:22,440 I have to earn it each and every day and each and every way you 596 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:26,200 to earn responsibility. You have to earn discernment 597 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:34,880 through practice, study, thinking, prayer, tradition, 598 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:41,320 drawing from it, not granting oneself it, but be giving even 599 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,480 when you're given it, to understand the weight of that 600 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,720 responsibility and to always feel inadequate. 601 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,560 Because if you, if you ever got to a point where like, no, no, 602 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:56,680 no, I should be responsible for hundreds of people's souls, 603 00:43:56,720 --> 00:43:58,160 thousands. He's you know, if you're doing 604 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,640 this online and you're reaching what, thousands, if not 605 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:09,000 millions, that means everything you say carries a weight to it, 606 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:14,160 especially if you're a priest. It's a heavy thing. 607 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:25,480 And shouldn't be taken for granted and shouldn't be granted 608 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:31,840 to just anybody. For Forgiveness Sunday and for 609 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:36,840 the Great Grace of forgiveness, you know Saint John Chrysostom 610 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:40,480 wrote the most famous treatise on the holy priesthood. 611 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,480 He did it in six books. There are excellent translations 612 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:47,080 of it in the English language. Thank God. 613 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,800 Catechumens here at Saint Andrew Parish are required to read that 614 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,760 text as part of their catechism. When I was in catechumen myself, 615 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,000 I was directed to read that text. 616 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,560 I was given my first copy of it by His Grace Bishop Basil, who 617 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,880 received me into the Church and also ordained me to the 618 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:05,760 priesthood. Metropolitan Philip, the late 619 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:10,280 Metropolitan Philip, who was the Archbishop of our archdiocese, 620 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,760 My archdiocese, when I converted constantly. 621 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:14,960 He quoted St. John Chrysostom's on the 622 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,600 Priesthood both in his public teachings and in his writings 623 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,440 that he published, his written sermons, The greatness of the 624 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:26,160 priesthood, the supra celestial, celestial grace of the 625 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:30,240 priesthood is the greatest gift of God on the earth without 626 00:45:30,240 --> 00:45:33,960 question. Through it comes the grace of 627 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:38,960 salvation to all who believe and will be baptized and live in the 628 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,240 mystery of the Church. When I think about our sweet 629 00:45:42,240 --> 00:45:45,520 Jesus, our great High Priest, and the thought that he would 630 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:49,600 share his priesthood, that he would democratize it through the 631 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:54,920 grace of ordination with sinners like myself and all my brother 632 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:58,320 priests and the bishops of the Church, the thought that Jesus 633 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:03,640 would so humbly do that and include us in his care for the 634 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:09,440 flock, in bringing salvation to people, it leaves me undone. 635 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:14,400 How the Lord can use us without dirtying his fingers, so to 636 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:18,720 speak, and can bring grace and love and the knowledge of the 637 00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:21,680 Holy Trinity to people through the through the priesthood is 638 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,480 just it's too much. It's too much. 639 00:46:24,720 --> 00:46:30,640 The priest is proclaimed in the service of ordination axios, by 640 00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,280 the Bishop and the people worthy. 641 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:38,760 But he knows that there's a worthiness that's beyond a 642 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:42,240 worthiness for ordination. There's a worthiness that is a 643 00:46:42,240 --> 00:46:46,840 human calling before God that he most definitely does not have. 644 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,720 And he knows in his heart that he is an axios. 645 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:53,800 And it's from that position of unworthiness, from that position 646 00:46:53,800 --> 00:47:00,360 of humility before God, that he must every day stand before the 647 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,720 Holy Table with that sense of unworthiness. 648 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,760 Of course, it's built into the prayer of entrance into the holy 649 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,480 place. How shall I, if the unworthy, 650 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,720 dare to enter into the radiance of Thy holy place? 651 00:47:13,720 --> 00:47:17,000 If with the worthy I venture to to enter, My garment will 652 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,640 denounce me, for it is not a wedding garment, that I shall be 653 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:23,760 cast out, bound by the angels. Cleanse, O Lord, the defilement 654 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,520 of my soul, and save me, for Thou were the lover of mankind. 655 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:32,240 Wow, every priest who's worth his salt ministers from this 656 00:47:32,240 --> 00:47:34,520 place of decimation, of Let's talk. 657 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,840 About that for a second, humility is another key aspect 658 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:43,360 of true authority. If we're seeking to, who should 659 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:47,000 we place this authority in? Because we're going to get to 660 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,840 the negative in a second. We're going to let father 661 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:52,080 decide, finish off and then we'll get into many examples of, 662 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:57,840 of fake false authority from influencers all the way down to 663 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:02,520 cult leaders and leadership positions. 664 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:06,480 Those are, that's the easy stuff, right? 665 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:10,920 We all, we all have a list of, of, of bad authority figures in 666 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,160 our head. Maybe you had a bad teacher. 667 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,280 I know I've had a few. This kind of sours you to the 668 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:20,080 position of teacher. Maybe you've had bad parents, 669 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:23,320 you've had a inadequate father or an adequate mother or you 670 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:27,040 know, whatever have you. So it sours you on the position 671 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,800 and it often times, if you want to seek out the the bad 672 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,160 examples, there's tons of bad apples to find. 673 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,080 In fact, you might get convinced the barrel's just full of bad 674 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,880 apples. The category itself cannot be 675 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,800 saved. Toss out 110 times, right? 676 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:52,120 That, you know, may be true, but my experience with humanity and 677 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:56,800 reality in life suggests that that's not entirely true or 678 00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:02,640 doesn't have to be true forever if we only judge the priesthood 679 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:09,320 by bad priests from in Orthodoxy or Catholicism or where find 680 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:12,560 find your bad priest, find your bad theology. 681 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:17,280 We can even say that you know from different sects of 682 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:20,720 Christianity looking at judging others and criticizing others 683 00:49:20,720 --> 00:49:23,240 somebody saying, ah, there's a bad theology. 684 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:29,960 So then this whole category of, of faith is, is is in question. 685 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:33,000 The authority of that church becomes in question because the 686 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,960 theology itself becomes in question. 687 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,440 Now, I'm not going to get into the theology here. 688 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,720 I don't have the authority to. I'll be back to Jay Dyer and 689 00:49:42,720 --> 00:49:47,120 many others. But we see this whole problem 690 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,280 that the category itself becomes corrupted. 691 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:55,160 But we need these categories. We need them in order to operate 692 00:49:55,160 --> 00:50:00,640 the world. So to repent and even to redeem 693 00:50:02,720 --> 00:50:08,120 a category can be Our Calling. How do we redeem the category of 694 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:11,280 Father? You know, the revolution of man 695 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:14,320 happened long before many of us were born. 696 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:23,080 The early 19th century started the 18th and carried over World 697 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,760 War One to Great Depression, World War 2. 698 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:30,080 All of these events, I've said, is the revolution of the 699 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:34,680 category of the father of man inverted our characteristics, 700 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,360 leading to dereliction of duties. 701 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,200 The reaction of the devouring mother to the tyrannical father 702 00:50:45,240 --> 00:50:51,600 is what leads us to all these fine derivations. 703 00:50:51,720 --> 00:50:58,840 Let's call it try not to swear of the modern world things were 704 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,000 just coming out of. Which of course leads us now to 705 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:06,160 the vengeful sun. In order to reclaim the 706 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:11,440 category, we must struggle and must realize that we often times 707 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:15,200 don't have the proper model as a father, as a man, as a husband. 708 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,640 Who is your model now? Maybe you lucked up. 709 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,600 Maybe you had a great dad who was a great who was a great 710 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:25,840 husband and a good man. Congratulations, you won the 711 00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:30,480 lottery. Many of many, of many others, 712 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:34,120 myself included, didn't have that perfect setup. 713 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:42,480 And you when you sometimes dig too much into the mythos of 714 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:45,400 certain people in your life, you realize that there's a lot of, 715 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:51,520 you know, history that gets picked over, glossed over. 716 00:51:53,680 --> 00:52:01,520 It's interesting to me how some men get revered, put on 717 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:07,240 pedestals, even though we all know that they're, they make 718 00:52:07,240 --> 00:52:10,320 mistakes. They're not without sin, without 719 00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:11,680 their problems. In fact. 720 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:13,960 And we don't even have to know the specifics. 721 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:15,520 We can just look at the fruits of their children. 722 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,600 So you blame the boomers. You're actually really blaming 723 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:24,320 their parents too. See, it's tricky, doesn't it? 724 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,000 How do we redeem the idea of the father category of the father 725 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:31,640 category of the man category of the husband? 726 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,800 How do we all these things are contained within the category of 727 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:39,200 man. You know, as you grow from a 728 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,920 child into adulthood, your proper place is to get married 729 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,240 and have children. So you become the husband and 730 00:52:45,240 --> 00:52:48,800 then the father in the Trinity of the household, the little 731 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:52,280 monastery, the father sits at the head is the priest of the 732 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,280 house or the mother and the child. 733 00:52:55,640 --> 00:53:00,400 Everyone has their own role. This is proper because the 734 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,360 priest, the father has to take full responsibility, total 735 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:06,920 responsibility of the governance of the whole house. 736 00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:10,320 If the house is out of order and if the family is out of order 737 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:13,280 and you can then say, hey, these kids and this and this, you 738 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,760 know, the wife and all the rest of it are doing weird things. 739 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:20,760 Responsibility has to rest somewhere. 740 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:26,160 Now, do we say that the woman and the child doesn't have some 741 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:29,000 sort of sovereignty, some sort of agency in the world? 742 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:33,400 Of course they can do things, they can act, but who's bringing 743 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:37,960 them into order? Where does this disorder stem 744 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,160 from? Who has to take responsibility 745 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:45,280 regardless of if if it's their fault or not fault. 746 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:53,000 It has to be somebody and that has to be the man, the father, 747 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,920 the husband. So to redeem these categories, 748 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,440 which I think is really the calling of this age. 749 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,480 And it's going to be around for the last, next, you know, 40 to 750 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:08,440 60 years. It's a generational thing is to 751 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,480 understand that our previous models are corrupted. 752 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,640 Many of our previous models are corrupted in many ways. 753 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:18,040 Our understanding, we say this word, we have an image. 754 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,880 The image itself for many of us is inverted. 755 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,200 Even our definition of what is power, what is strength, what 756 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:30,280 is, what is masculine, how it is to be masculine. 757 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,680 We have sort of an instinctual understanding of these words of 758 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:37,840 people who aren't completely polluted and off the off the 759 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:42,120 reservation. But we need something to ground 760 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:47,680 us if we're going to redeem this category and understand what it 761 00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:54,280 is to be a man and a husband and a father and then understand 762 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:58,440 what it is to be a good husband and a good father. 763 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:02,280 We can't use modern metrics for these things because we 764 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,680 understand that the modern metrics are, but you're going to 765 00:55:04,720 --> 00:55:10,520 they're screwed up. So we have to turn to somebody. 766 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:18,880 This is part of the go to church, talk to your priest, 767 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,800 find someone who has a greater authority and responsibility 768 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:32,200 than you do, who's occupying a category, A father. 769 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:37,480 Literally. It's why priests have to be men 770 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,920 because ultimately responsibility of not just the 771 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:47,560 house, but then we go one step up and the responsibility of the 772 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,920 Church and of your soul, and I'm just talking to your parish, 773 00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:55,760 rests in the priest who has also a greater authority, in the 774 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,960 Bishop who also has a greater authority. 775 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,400 And all the way up, right up to Christ, right up to the apostles 776 00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:02,800 in Christ and the Saints and all the rest. 777 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:09,720 It's a clear line down to you, layman. 778 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:18,040 How can you bear and how can you present yourself with authority 779 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:20,720 and how can you take responsibility for this world 780 00:56:20,720 --> 00:56:24,480 and this life and yourself and others if you have no model of 781 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,600 someone who's doing the same thing on a much bigger scale? 782 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,040 So you take a small portion of that and represent it. 783 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:36,480 That's the humility. That's what's serving the 784 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,480 church, or at least part of it is. 785 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,000 That doesn't mean you turn off your faculties. 786 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:49,000 And if you see your priest or whoever doing something corrupt, 787 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:51,880 doesn't mean you just go, oh, that's fine, they're doing it. 788 00:56:53,880 --> 00:57:00,400 But it also means that what I think a lot of us and you hear 789 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:06,600 stories of this of people coming in from other traditions and 790 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:11,440 smuggling those traditions in. So or an expectation. 791 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:14,400 You spend a lot of time online, you hear listen to Father 792 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:19,080 Josiah, if you hear Father Turbo or there's other people saying 793 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:23,440 certain things, reading certain homilies and you go, aha, well, 794 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,360 my priest isn't saying that, therefore he must be corrupt. 795 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:33,560 It's like realize that especially if you're a convert, 796 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:38,560 you don't know nothing, don't have to take responsibility for 797 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,320 the church or the teachings or any of that. 798 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:46,240 Your priest in, in most cases, I would say if, if your priest is 799 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:49,280 normally good priest, a nominally good man and in doing 800 00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,440 a nominally good priestly job, he's going to administer his 801 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,400 flock in the way that he thinks is best. 802 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,240 And there's many different considerations that you may not 803 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:03,960 be factoring in because it's not about you. 804 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:08,040 It's not just about your salvation or about your personal 805 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:11,320 guidance. He's tending to take 806 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:15,600 responsibility for the entire church, the entire body that 807 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:18,880 exists now and will exist in the future and exists before. 808 00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:24,240 It's a heavy thing. So before you start casting 809 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:28,440 derisions and making these judgments, ask yourself this. 810 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:33,960 Are you taking any kind of real responsibility in your life or 811 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:38,040 are you blaming? Because if you're blaming your 812 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:45,640 parents or you're going to blame your priest and that's on you. 813 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,360 That's that is where it's about you. 814 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,960 Remember to like and subscribe and share and do all the things 815 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,040 on the channels, folks. Every little bit helps. 816 00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,160 Melodith. This is the only way a priest 817 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,640 can live his vocation faithfully, honestly, and in 818 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:05,000 perpetual repentance. The Scriptures themselves speak 819 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:07,440 not just about their qualifications for being a good 820 00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:10,000 priest, but also about examples of bad priests. 821 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:16,480 Yes, this is in the Scriptures. Think of Moses's nephews, his 822 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,640 brother Aaron's two sons, Nadab and Abihu. 823 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:25,040 In Leviticus chapter 10. These men who were ordained just 824 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:27,880 as the Old Testament Levitical priesthood was being fashioned 825 00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:33,600 and formed, They got fancy, so to speak, and careless with the 826 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:37,560 censor and disrespected. Love you back, Harry, someone 827 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,200 said here. So too, Jacobs says, religion 828 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:43,800 and philosophy are both ontological pictures, but 829 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:46,440 different types of pictures and like different art types, they 830 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:50,120 can only be judged on the basis of individuals aesthetic 831 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:53,800 subjectivity. The the the difference here in 832 00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:56,760 this kind of I'm getting at is that philosophy or let's say 833 00:59:57,080 --> 01:00:01,280 ideologies based on philosophies don't bear any real, real 834 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:07,000 responsibility. Just take, just take one right? 835 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:10,480 My my favorite scapegoat? Often libertarianism. 836 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,360 Who takes responsibility for libertarianism? 837 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,600 Alive or dead, who? Who would you place the 838 01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:22,360 responsibility of libertarianism on? 839 01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:25,600 It's thinking, it's praxis, its abilities, it's it's successes, 840 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:26,960 its failures, all the rest of it. 841 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:30,920 Is it Dave Smith? Is it Rothbard? 842 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:34,200 Is it Hoppa? Who? 843 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:39,480 Who is who is the ultimate bearer of responsibility for 844 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:44,680 that ideology? Even with communism, we we say, 845 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:46,840 well, it's Marx. It's like, well, yeah. 846 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:51,360 And Marx, of course, takes AI think should be a scapegoat for 847 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:54,040 all those kind of things. But it wasn't just Marx, was it? 848 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:58,360 There's that Engels guy too. And in, you know, let's say the 849 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,360 application of communism, Well, there's different types. 850 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,240 It's all bad. I'm not here to defend anything. 851 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:08,280 But Sovietism is different than this, you know, than Chinese 852 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:11,480 communism is different than, you know, Cuba and all the rest of 853 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,400 it, even though they're all based on the same forms of 854 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:17,640 ideology, it's application and it's history in different 855 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:22,680 regions are different. So where does it responsibility 856 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:26,080 lie? It's, you know, Marxist 857 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:28,840 Leninism. Well, does it follow on Marx and 858 01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,560 Lenin, even though Stalin did a different thing and Khrushchev 859 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,080 did a different thing and all these are people did different 860 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:36,680 things, where does responsibility lie? 861 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,640 And ultimately, you could say, well, they've all been deceived. 862 01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:42,400 Even Marx didn't come up with these things completely out of 863 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:45,040 his own head. He had other influences. 864 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,800 We could trace it back. Maybe it's Rousseau, maybe it's 865 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,640 this who bears responsibility ultimately. 866 01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:58,120 Well, no one and everyone. Oops. 867 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:00,920 So no one. Then there's your nihilism 868 01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:06,840 present in the system. The system is nihilistic because 869 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,000 it's what it produces. That's why I say the liberal 870 01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:13,040 frame is Luciferian. It's the inversion of meaning 871 01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:18,760 itself into nothingness. Because we can't pinpoint and 872 01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:22,120 say this person is responsible for these actions, for this way 873 01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:28,120 of thinking, solely 100% it's on them. 874 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:36,640 Well, if you can't say that definitively, honestly, then 875 01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:38,360 it's not them. Well, who is it? 876 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:50,480 Within religion, This is why I say it's one of the key tenants 877 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:54,760 of of civilization, rule of religion and region is that we 878 01:02:54,760 --> 01:03:00,040 know who's responsible. Christianity, responsibility 879 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:05,240 falls on, let's say the priests or the bishops, sure, and it 880 01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:08,680 falls on us. But the ultimate authority here 881 01:03:09,360 --> 01:03:14,280 is God. That's a heck of an authority. 882 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:18,440 The sacrifice and God killed them. 883 01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:21,520 He judged them both and gave them death. 884 01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:26,640 Immediately after that account there is a warning about 885 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,400 alcohol. It's very fascinating. 886 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,680 Comes right after the judgement of the priests. 887 01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:35,600 I think it's probable that these priests themselves were drunk 888 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:41,080 and this led to their inappropriate behaviour which 889 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:45,840 led to their deaths. Then think of the sons of Eli, 890 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:49,840 Hofni and Phineas, another two priests who were serving in the 891 01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,960 shrine of Shiloh. This is first Samuel 4. 892 01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:56,880 They also came to a bad end after ignoring their father's 893 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,360 admonitions to repent of their evil ways. 894 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,440 And their sins were much worse, I think, than the sins of Nedab 895 01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:05,880 and Abihu. These priests weren't just weak, 896 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:10,880 they just weren't disobedient to their their father who was 897 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,720 admonishing them. He wasn't a great father. 898 01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,240 They didn't just have moral failings like drunkenness, but 899 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,440 their sins, the sins of Hofni and Finnis, were related to 900 01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,440 their own exercise of the priesthood, which is far more 901 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:27,800 wicked for a priest to use his priesthood in an evil way. 902 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,360 Priests are not allowed to be weak. 903 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:33,960 That's number one. We're not allowed to be slaves 904 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:38,480 of our passions to gambling or drunkenness or infidelity. 905 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:41,920 And of course the scriptures and their requirements for 906 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,120 ordination forbid people who have these weaknesses from being 907 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:46,920 priests, and the canons also forbid it. 908 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:51,520 But. The other big component of of 909 01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:54,560 authority here and with both responsibility and discernment 910 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:59,320 comes with consequence. So I guess it's back to that 911 01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:03,240 quote, which is not Saint John Chrysostom but sounds like 912 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,600 something he would say. The road of hell is paved to the 913 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:09,640 bones of priests and monks, and the skulls of bishops are the 914 01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:14,560 lampposts that light the path. Because it's consequence. 915 01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:19,600 The consequence of bad leadership, especially bad 916 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:25,840 spiritual leadership, is to be part of the pavement of hell. 917 01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:32,800 So it's a big fall off point. There's your bearing, your 918 01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,360 responsibility. Not only are you responsibility 919 01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:38,920 for your own repentance, for your own seriousness within the 920 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:42,720 faith, but you're responsible for for other people. 921 01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:48,880 And the consequence is damnation, assured damnation. 922 01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:52,200 And we see this in the stories. Here's your consequence. 923 01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:54,680 You're not going to be saved. You're not going to get God's 924 01:05:54,680 --> 01:06:00,000 not going to come down and make an exception for you as the 925 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:03,440 ultimate sovereign of reality itself, life and death. 926 01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:06,400 He whose sovereign is he sovereign is he who chooses the 927 01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:09,000 exception. Well, if you want to be 928 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:11,720 exceptional and you want to be the exception in more times than 929 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:15,560 not, Lord Jesus Christ and God have mercy in me, a Sinner be 930 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:22,720 granted mercy to be given, to be given grace, then you best take 931 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:24,360 responsibility. And when you've taken the 932 01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:27,200 responsibility, when you've been given that responsibility, you 933 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:30,320 must cherish it. You must be a good vessel, 934 01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:37,120 otherwise there are consequences these. 935 01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:40,520 Unacceptable weaknesses are not born out of malice. 936 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:44,960 What Hofni and Phineas did and what some priests throughout 937 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:49,280 church history have done is to exercise their priesthood 938 01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:53,640 maliciously. And this is a far greater sin. 939 01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:58,560 This quest for power, this sinning in the exercise of the 940 01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:02,160 priesthood itself. Questing for power, compromising 941 01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:06,960 faith to appease politicians or to be liked in society. 942 01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:09,640 Horrible quality in a priest or a Bishop. 943 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:14,520 It can't be true to God and have your eye focused on pleasing him 944 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:16,600 and also tried to be a man pleaser. 945 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:21,720 This is absolutely forbidden in priests quest for absolute 946 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:25,680 control, violation of trust and priestly confidentiality. 947 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:29,360 One of the most wicked sins of a priest is to take advantage of 948 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:32,760 the vulnerability of someone by hearing their confessions and 949 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,080 then not maintaining the confidentiality which should 950 01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:38,720 cough the priestess priesthood. The Church is extremely serious 951 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:42,360 about the confidential, confidential confidentiality of 952 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:46,440 confession, and it is a terrible sin for a priest to violate that 953 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:50,240 manipulation instead of mercy for people who are revealing 954 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,800 their weakness. This is another horrible 955 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:55,640 malicious sin. Answering criticism from the 956 01:07:55,640 --> 01:08:00,760 flock with revenge instead of forgiveness, abusing authority 957 01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:04,400 to tyrannize hearts and minds over the Lord's flock. 958 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:13,560 Wow. It is possible to really misuse 959 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:19,319 the priesthood, and this is what Hofni and Phineas themselves 960 01:08:19,319 --> 01:08:22,279 were doing and why it brought death to them. 961 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:25,359 They misused their priest, the authority and position to abuse 962 01:08:25,359 --> 01:08:27,439 the people. Particularly they sexually 963 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:31,479 exploited women, women who were devoted to the Tabernacle, women 964 01:08:31,479 --> 01:08:34,640 who were assembling at the scripture says at the door of 965 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:37,880 the Tabernacle. They are to be of service, and 966 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:43,800 in fact they were used by these unworthy priests. 967 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:47,120 The other major sin that Hofnie Infinis committed was disdaining 968 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:50,680 the part of the sacrificial animal that God had allotted to 969 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:53,240 the priests. Instead, they insisted, before 970 01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:56,600 the sacrifice was made, of taking the choice cut right. 971 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:59,760 They use their ministry to prosper themselves instead of 972 01:08:59,920 --> 01:09:02,960 using themselves to prosper their ministry and. 973 01:09:03,359 --> 01:09:06,120 Of course we have the examples of Christ overturning the the 974 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:11,800 table and going after the, the Pharisees and, you know, 975 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:16,640 proclaiming them unworthy. Well, there has to be in order 976 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,720 to have that kind of discernment, to be able to say 977 01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:21,840 that someone has fallen away from their responsibility, from 978 01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:24,560 the other office. You have to have standards and 979 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:27,080 practices. We have to be able to judge what 980 01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:32,479 is good and what is bad, what is what is good and what is wicked. 981 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,520 This leads us to discernment itself. 982 01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:39,560 We've given the tools within the Christian frame of what is right 983 01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:43,640 and what is wrong, what is righteous, what is vengeance. 984 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:49,960 But in the modern world, many of these, even these words have 985 01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:54,040 been corrupted. So even if you and I here in the 986 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:56,800 chat in this channel can understand the true meaning of 987 01:09:56,800 --> 01:10:02,080 these words and attach ourselves and and seek out righteousness 988 01:10:02,080 --> 01:10:06,560 in our in our life, we have the proper discernment of when to 989 01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:13,880 use certain mechanisms, whether it be anger or even violence 990 01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:19,680 itself. What's lacking is that proper 991 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:23,280 discernment. We have to find it somewhere. 992 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:29,920 Harry Ludwig just gifted 5 memberships. 993 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:33,960 Appreciate you, Harry. Get yourself a Ding you get 994 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:36,600 yourself A damn you get yourself a A. 995 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:40,360 Thank you. You even get yourself a. 996 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:44,160 The best there is, the best there was, and the best ever 997 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:46,040 will be. Thank you Harry. 998 01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:50,800 Be like Harry send me, send me your money. 999 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:54,280 Send me your money, your super chats, your comments, your 1000 01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:59,720 likes, your Subs, your let the people knows where we're at help 1001 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:02,360 grow the channel itching way if every which way you can and pay 1002 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:05,720 some bills along the way. You know this stuff ain't free 1003 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,320 folks. So I appreciate you and thank 1004 01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:10,480 you, Harry. Appreciate that. 1005 01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:14,800 Maybe we'll stop here. We'll get to some other stuff 1006 01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:20,800 because this is where just saw it sort of elucidating this, 1007 01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:28,280 this fact that if given responsibility and power in some 1008 01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:34,040 ways over others, we must utilize and be responsible with 1009 01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:37,120 that power. And the easy way of deserting 1010 01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:44,280 who should be given certain authorities is how they treat 1011 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,360 others. It's a classic example of you 1012 01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:51,120 can tell a lot about someone by the way they treat a server and 1013 01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:53,880 they go out for dinner. And if he's rude and dismissive 1014 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:57,960 to the waitress or waiter, I'm probably not going to be a very 1015 01:11:57,960 --> 01:11:59,480 good guy. Buck Johnson's in chat. 1016 01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:02,520 Buck Sing. Every one of those sound effects 1017 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:04,400 was from wrestling. I love it. 1018 01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:10,480 You know it, baby. Yeah, Buck, if this wasn't my 1019 01:12:10,480 --> 01:12:13,960 Friday, I'd be drinking some beers along with Stone Cold. 1020 01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:15,960 You know what he has to say. I drank a beer. 1021 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:26,160 I drank another beer. 3 beers, 4 beers. 5 beers. 6 beers. 7 1022 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:31,000 beers. 8 beers. 9 beers. I ever make it down to Texas 1023 01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:33,720 being bucked, get together and drink some beers. 1024 01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:36,000 What beers? That's what I'm saying. 1025 01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:40,240 What was I saying? Oh, yes, you can. 1026 01:12:40,240 --> 01:12:43,360 So you can tell a lot about a man about how he treats others 1027 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:45,600 that he has power and control over. 1028 01:12:46,440 --> 01:12:51,800 So let's cue something up here. Sean Piker has been getting has 1029 01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:55,120 been getting the treatment. Who is Hassan Piker? 1030 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:58,160 He's the cousin or the nephew I should say sorry of. 1031 01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:03,280 Jake Huger, host and creator of The Young Turks, runs a show 1032 01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:05,560 over on Twitch. Many people know who Hassan is. 1033 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:08,320 If you don't, God bless you. Don't bother finding out. 1034 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:13,680 He's he's an avowed communist. Of course he is a millionaire 1035 01:13:13,680 --> 01:13:15,720 who lives in a mansion in Beverly Hills or wherever he is 1036 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:19,120 in California. He's one of these virulent 1037 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,160 progressives we talked about on the show before. 1038 01:13:22,440 --> 01:13:24,880 He's just, he's the whole stack. You know, he's up there with 1039 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:27,480 Destiny and Bosch and all these other people who've made a lot 1040 01:13:27,480 --> 01:13:29,880 of money and a lot of high, you know, gotten a lot of power and 1041 01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:33,680 prestige and probably not for good reasons. 1042 01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:35,880 He's got a whole cadre of people. 1043 01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:38,520 He's he's he's a big deal. And he break constantly, 1044 01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:43,800 flagrantly breaks, you know, the the terms in the terms of 1045 01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:47,000 service on Twitch and gets away with it. 1046 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,120 Maybe people think he's going to get cancelled this time. 1047 01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:52,960 Oh, this is the one. And he keeps on ticking because 1048 01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:57,360 he's serving a purpose. Calls for violence, calls, you 1049 01:13:57,360 --> 01:14:00,080 know, he's up there with calls for violence against 1050 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:03,440 conservatives and all the rest of it and destroying the system 1051 01:14:03,440 --> 01:14:06,160 that he benefits from. He's he's a he's a he's a, he's 1052 01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:10,040 a character. But recently he's getting a lot 1053 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,640 of attention because apparently he's also abusing his dog. 1054 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,360 That's the allegation. The allegation is he's abusing 1055 01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:17,560 his dog. He's got this dog in the back. 1056 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:19,320 And yeah, we'll just play the clip. 1057 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:23,000 So apparently I don't, I don't watch his streams, but 1058 01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,520 apparently he has his dog sitting in this little mat 1059 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:28,840 behind him for four plus hours while he streams. 1060 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:31,720 Now you might wonder why he has to have his dog in the corner 1061 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,880 like that. I would say it's probably 1062 01:14:33,880 --> 01:14:36,960 because he thinks it's humanizes him on some level, which, you 1063 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,040 know, it does. People tend to like people who 1064 01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:41,840 have animals. They take care of the animals or 1065 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:43,960 something. You know, he doesn't have kids 1066 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:45,640 and he's, I don't think he's married and he's not married. 1067 01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:48,080 So he has no other authority. He has nothing else that kind of 1068 01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:51,360 humanizes him. He's a man in his mid to late 1069 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:54,720 30s now, I guess. And he has none of these other 1070 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:57,200 categories of man, but at least he's caring for his animal, 1071 01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:58,760 right? That's something. 1072 01:14:59,880 --> 01:15:02,560 Animals are quite often kind of considered on the same level of 1073 01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:04,800 children for many people. They're innocent. 1074 01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:08,520 They require care and attention. You have to be a responsible 1075 01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:11,760 human being to take care of an animal, especially a dog. 1076 01:15:12,440 --> 01:15:14,040 It's not just, you know, a pet fish. 1077 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:15,640 Even then, you have to still feed them. 1078 01:15:16,040 --> 01:15:18,760 But a dog requires a lot more attention and it gives affection 1079 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:21,320 and all the rest of it. So again, a humanizing effect. 1080 01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:24,680 I believe it's kind of the humanizing prop that has on as 1081 01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:28,200 the background. You know, maybe he loves a dog. 1082 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:29,880 Who knows? Doesn't seem like it, though. 1083 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:34,600 Let's play the clip. All of America's much more 1084 01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:38,120 consequential violence. OK? 1085 01:15:38,440 --> 01:15:43,000 It's the same reason as to why America Kaya, please just 1086 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,080 fucking go. You stop. 1087 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,960 So the allegation is this is that the dog has a shock collar 1088 01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:55,320 on and when he was, the dog was moving off. 1089 01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:58,600 Hassan moves and presses something and the dog yelps and 1090 01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:01,240 then sits back down. So this is the allegation that's 1091 01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:04,360 been brewing. Jesus Christ, what are you 1092 01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:07,160 doing? You're being such a baby. 1093 01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:13,760 It's just you're making her stressed. 1094 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:19,240 I, I, I she just. Now I, you know, I maybe I'm no 1095 01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:22,800 body language expert, but this is the language of a body of a 1096 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:26,240 man who just did something he knows is wrong and is now trying 1097 01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:28,760 to cover for it. You know, he's looking down. 1098 01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:31,440 He's a bit nervous. He's a oh, you know, yeah. 1099 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:35,080 You're being a baby. You got to shock the crap out of 1100 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:38,840 you. Literally is is so incredibly 1101 01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:44,680 spoiled from my mom. No she doesn't want to come over 1102 01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,520 here to see what's up. She just wants to fucking roam 1103 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:50,280 the house because she got to roam the house when I was gone 1104 01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:55,080 and she needs to literally have the same structured regimented. 1105 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:00,520 Yes, she needs to be his continual prop. 1106 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,360 He needs she needs to be a prop. She needs to sit there in the 1107 01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:10,440 corner, look kind of cute, and, you know, don't do dog things 1108 01:17:10,480 --> 01:17:12,960 like get up and move around and probably want to get some food 1109 01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:25,160 or water or go to the bathroom. What, what, what? 1110 01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:30,440 That's the face of a guilty man. Don't ask me how I know. 1111 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:32,240 Not that I've ever shocked a dog before. 1112 01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:33,800 I don't own a dog. Why would I own a dog? 1113 01:17:34,480 --> 01:17:36,520 I'm a cat guy. So. 1114 01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:41,360 Here's a clear present example. And and he's been taking Flack 1115 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:43,240 all over the place and maybe people think that this is it. 1116 01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:45,480 This is the thing that's going to get him cancelled. 1117 01:17:45,480 --> 01:17:47,160 He's going to finally lose his support. 1118 01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:52,280 Of course people read his comments, many people, maybe 1119 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:57,400 supporters. Here's here it is your average 1120 01:17:57,400 --> 01:18:02,760 Hassan supporter in response to someone saying, you know, he 1121 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:05,000 said the the commenter says, why are you lying? 1122 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,960 I apparently this replying to a comment was saying that this guy 1123 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:13,320 shocked his dog anything. So what are you saying exactly? 1124 01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:17,920 And the Hassan fan says the dog walks around Hassan tells her to 1125 01:18:17,920 --> 01:18:20,840 sit. He she stubs her toe and yelps. 1126 01:18:21,120 --> 01:18:24,360 Hassan looks concerned and turns around, realizes she's fine and 1127 01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:26,720 then moves on. This is sort of Hassan's 1128 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:29,680 narrative around the event is that the dog got up, moved 1129 01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:31,600 around, stubbed her toe. That's why she'd yelped. 1130 01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:35,320 And you know, of course he loves his dog. 1131 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,560 He would never shock her. And then he comes out with 1132 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:40,280 another statement saying that, yes, the dog has a collar that 1133 01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:44,520 has a the button vibrates, makes a vibration, and the dog 1134 01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:48,920 responds to the vibration by yelping in pain and sitting back 1135 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:53,800 down. OK, what's revealing here? 1136 01:18:53,800 --> 01:18:58,680 Of course. And you know, again, anyone who 1137 01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:01,080 doesn't like Hassan is not going to like Hassan. 1138 01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:02,640 It's not going to change anything. 1139 01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:05,240 People who love Hassan are going to make all excuses in the 1140 01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:06,720 world. And people in the middle are 1141 01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,360 like, who the Hell's Hassan and move on with their day. 1142 01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:13,400 But again, we're seeing clear indication here ever since we're 1143 01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:15,040 talking about authority and responsibility. 1144 01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:20,080 Ought Hassan have authority? Does he take responsibility for 1145 01:19:20,080 --> 01:19:22,280 what he says for the lives of others? 1146 01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:26,200 It doesn't take responsibility for the life of his dog whether 1147 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:29,360 he's shocking the dog or not. The fact that he's making a dog 1148 01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:35,000 sit in a corner on Cam, you know, in view of this camera for 1149 01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:39,120 four plus hours while he streams every day in itself is a form of 1150 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:41,400 abuse. Doesn't even have to be shocking 1151 01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:44,080 to someone. Although I do think he shocked 1152 01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:48,760 the dog. My own personal opinions so 1153 01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,960 clear cut indication that someone shouldn't be given any 1154 01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:55,440 kind of authority at all, right? Easy one. 1155 01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:58,560 That's an easy layup. Here's a here's a more 1156 01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:03,640 interesting one, and this comes from when this when this hit, 1157 01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:10,840 people were were CC ING me quite a bit on this post Taylor Swift, 1158 01:20:11,480 --> 01:20:14,560 you know, the Swifty's having having a bit of meltdown. 1159 01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:18,600 Apparently the new Taylor Swift albums come out and it's leading 1160 01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:22,160 towards a very neo tratty kind of thing. 1161 01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:23,520 What? What was that? 1162 01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:28,600 What was my, what would I say in 2023 that suddenly overnight 1163 01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:31,840 you're going to see a lot of gender fluid pink hair 1164 01:20:31,840 --> 01:20:35,800 progressives, you know, pussy hat wearing people flip a 1165 01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:40,000 script, flip a script overnight and become neo traditionalists 1166 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:43,800 wearing very nice sun dresses and baking apple pies, getting 1167 01:20:43,800 --> 01:20:47,720 married, might pick a fences. All the rest of it thought I was 1168 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:49,520 crazy. I'm just describing the normal 1169 01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:52,120 change over to conservatism like no, no, no, no. 1170 01:20:52,120 --> 01:20:55,880 It's going to happen so fast that it's going to break brains. 1171 01:20:56,640 --> 01:20:59,240 It's going to lead us into this sort of mushy Christianity kind 1172 01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:01,400 of movement, which we can get into more. 1173 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:04,360 But it's, you know, got his benefits and a lot of fall offs 1174 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,480 as well. So what am I talking about here? 1175 01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:13,720 Let's see. This is from was posted by Wyatt 1176 01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:17,560 Taylor Swift getting her white picket fence ending is going to 1177 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:21,040 mentally Holocaust. Sorry, an entire generation of 1178 01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:23,960 millennial liberal liberal women who are told everything is going 1179 01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:26,680 to be OK and you don't need no man nor babies. 1180 01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:32,160 It's going to get ugly. Let's let's take a listen. 1181 01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:36,800 Taylor Swift is handing the conservative agenda on a silver 1182 01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:39,240 platter to the masses. And before I go any further, and 1183 01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:41,040 before you argue with me, you cannot convince. 1184 01:21:41,560 --> 01:21:43,720 This is as loud as it gets folks, but I don't know if you 1185 01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:45,760 really want to hear this woman's voice any louder. 1186 01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:55,400 She's got that kind of chirp If I suddenly become single, if my 1187 01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:58,560 wife just kicks me out of the house one day, which send me a 1188 01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,800 super chats folks, and let's let's try to prevent that from 1189 01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:06,640 happening. But if one day happens, I'm 1190 01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:09,000 taking a vow of celibacy. I'm not dating. 1191 01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:11,840 I'm not getting in the market because I can't imagine sitting 1192 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:16,480 across a table with this person, even if her political views are 1193 01:22:16,480 --> 01:22:20,360 completely 180, right? Even if this whole neotrad 1194 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:23,160 things happen, this woman suddenly becomes, you know, 1195 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:29,560 Susie Homemaker, you know, hyper conservative, You know what we 1196 01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:33,960 say in the chat yesterday, their buckets, hot topic, 1197 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,600 Christianity. Even if she does that whole 1198 01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:39,440 reversal right, I still wouldn't be able to listen to this person 1199 01:22:39,440 --> 01:22:43,600 speak. Me that the lyricist of our 1200 01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:48,520 generation, akin to Shakespeare, the Easter egg master of our 1201 01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:52,920 generation, is not aware of what her entire optics and lyrics and 1202 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:54,960 album and everything is giving at this very moment. 1203 01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:57,360 And before you suggest that this was supposed to be a satirical 1204 01:22:57,360 --> 01:23:00,640 album, I would like to remind you how she feels about this 1205 01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,600 album in her own words.

Yes. 1218 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:42,480 Listen, I don't know how long Taylor Swift's been doing this, 1219 01:23:42,480 --> 01:23:44,760 but I know it's been a pretty good amount of time. 1220 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:46,920 She's worked pretty hard for her career. 1221 01:23:47,480 --> 01:23:52,160 Why are we sharing what you are saying is the best piece of work 1222 01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,320 you've ever put out and you're going to share it with a man? 1223 01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:58,080 You're going to.

You got a man. 1232 01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:24,600 It's it's not all about the looks, it's it's the content, 1233 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:28,760 not the presentation. And what one day later, two days 1234 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,560 later, it was announced that they were engaged to talk about 1235 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:33,520 how manufactured that is. We could talk about how 1236 01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:36,600 inauthentic it is. We can also talk about how it. 1237 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:39,520 Inauthentic is an is an interesting word. 1238 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:44,600 I was I regrettably last week.

Why am I doing this? 1246 01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:17,880 Why am I sitting here with these people? 1247 01:25:18,840 --> 01:25:21,040 It's the same thing. Like imagine having to listen to 1248 01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:22,960 these people in real life. I'm like, I wouldn't sit around 1249 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,720 a table with you people.

I really, you know, I go go out 1260 01:25:58,040 --> 01:26:01,200 of my way each and every each and every day to not do that. 1261 01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:03,560 And I'm presenting something factual by myself. 1262 01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:06,600 And I think it was maybe I was talking about, you know, I 1263 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:08,240 wasn't talking about shorts, although that did come up. 1264 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:10,440 I'm just trying to remember the conversation doesn't matter. 1265 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:15,000 But go check it out if you want to if you really feel like it. 1266 01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:18,400 But yeah, he kept just using that word. 1267 01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:20,160 I'm like, I don't think you know what that means. 1268 01:26:20,160 --> 01:26:23,160 Really. You just want to call me a liar. 1269 01:26:23,360 --> 01:26:27,200 You just you, you think the word because it's negative is going 1270 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:31,200 to hurt me somehow. Don't care what you think. 1271 01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:34,000 Oh, and then someone that went after me because I was wearing 1272 01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:38,800 my Montreal hat and was talking about the false iconography. 1273 01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:42,400 You because because of the the the flag on my hat. 1274 01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:46,240 It's yeah, it's stupid. It is yet another step towards 1275 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:49,680 the conservative pipeline. Now if you're unaware about her 1276 01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:53,880 history with the orange man, he didn't like her very much. 1277 01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:56,840 He in all caps. I hate Taylor Swift. 1278 01:26:56,840 --> 01:27:00,280 She's a childless cat lady and I want you to bank that for later 1279 01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:02,560 in the video. But once this engagement 1280 01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:05,480 happened, we had a public statement put out my pumpkin 1281 01:27:05,480 --> 01:27:09,360 man, and he said, wow, Jo Swift, you know what? 1282 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:11,880 She's a great person. She's a terrific person even. 1283 01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:14,200 And I'm very happy for them. I wish them best in their 1284 01:27:14,200 --> 01:27:18,080 marriage.

The US has a history of using 1302 01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:18,960 pop culture to further a political agenda. 1303 01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,320 She's doing what he wants everyone else to do is to get 1304 01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:25,720 married and have white babies. But I do know that she can 1305 01:28:25,720 --> 01:28:27,560 control is the music that she puts out. 1306 01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:29,240 And I'm just going to jump right into it. 1307 01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:34,520 Cancelled is an anthem for those who are over being politically 1308 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,280 correct. And we're breaking down the wall 1309 01:28:37,480 --> 01:28:40,720 of shame that it is, that it means to be cancelled. 1310 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:43,600 Taylor Swift says it's OK now to be cancelled. 1311 01:28:43,600 --> 01:28:45,400 And that's actually cool and maybe. 1312 01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:47,840 What, what, what medication she's on? 1313 01:28:49,320 --> 01:28:52,520 Can we put her on some different dose to like have her relax her 1314 01:28:52,520 --> 01:28:54,960 hands?

This song was very much giving 1364 01:32:01,440 --> 01:32:03,560 Pick Me. I thought that we learned our 1365 01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:09,480 lesson with the She wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts, the 1366 01:32:09,480 --> 01:32:11,400 Pick Me song of all Pick Me songs. 1367 01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:16,000 This is that in this different font, but more worse. 1368 01:32:16,280 --> 01:32:18,920 Do you understand to mention?

I don't know exactly what 1372 01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:32,600 they're all on about, the reference to the songs that go 1373 01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:35,880 completely over my head for good reason, but they're losing it. 1374 01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:38,880 They're losing it. And there you go, right? 1375 01:32:38,880 --> 01:32:45,040 These ladies gave authority to a celebrity, to Taylor Swift, an 1376 01:32:45,040 --> 01:32:46,000 influencer. Really. 1377 01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:50,080 She's a singer, celebrity entertainer and basically 1378 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:54,840 influencer saying yes, I'm going to derive my meaning of my life 1379 01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,120 and the directions of my life. My Fronima will be a Taylor 1380 01:32:58,120 --> 01:33:03,880 Swift front of a my state of being will be a Swifty because 1381 01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:05,920 she's saying she's telling me how to be. 1382 01:33:08,440 --> 01:33:10,760 And then all of a sudden, this woman has, you know, a 1383 01:33:10,760 --> 01:33:13,680 revelation and suddenly decides I don't want to be that anymore 1384 01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:17,160 because, you know, people grow up and change their mind and 1385 01:33:17,440 --> 01:33:20,120 maybe get paid to do with different kinds of influencing 1386 01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:22,880 and all the rest of it. Speculations can run wild. 1387 01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:26,000 Suddenly she gets endorsed by Donald Trump, who's hating her 1388 01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:27,920 on her one moment and then loving her the other moment when 1389 01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:31,040 she changes her her direction in life, what she thinks is 1390 01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:34,040 advantageous or good. And he goes, oh, yeah, good, 1391 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:35,320 good. Congratulations. 1392 01:33:35,320 --> 01:33:36,480 Get married. What a wonderful thing. 1393 01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:41,440 Don says. Thanks, Chase. 1394 01:33:41,440 --> 01:33:42,600 I was getting annoyed at some. Yeah, I know. 1395 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:48,000 There's only so much, only so much, but I'm using these as an 1396 01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:50,280 example. So we're talking about 1397 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:51,040 authority. Who? 1398 01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:53,120 Who has authority? Who should have authority? 1399 01:33:55,440 --> 01:33:57,440 Who should have this power? Who rules? 1400 01:33:57,840 --> 01:33:59,920 Does Taylor Swift rule? Well, now she's having that 1401 01:33:59,920 --> 01:34:03,600 authority yanked from her by many, by many of her fans. 1402 01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:08,040 I'm just going to use this woman as an example of of a fan, but I 1403 01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:10,560 think she's probably speaking for many, especially if you're 1404 01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:13,400 past a certain age. Now you're worried you're like, 1405 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:16,080 I don't have a celebrity boyfriend. 1406 01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:18,960 I, you know, I've been told to not want kids or live in a 1407 01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:21,960 racially homogenized neighborhood. 1408 01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:25,680 I've, you know, not been doing anything that would lead to 1409 01:34:25,680 --> 01:34:30,880 those kind of outcomes. And now this woman who I've 1410 01:34:30,880 --> 01:34:37,000 given all this authority to is changing her tune and I'm left 1411 01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:39,600 in the lurch. Oops. 1412 01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:45,360 That's awkward. Hang on a second here. 1413 01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:48,560 Dave Smith and just had Nick Fuentes on. 1414 01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:49,920 I haven't watched the full episode. 1415 01:34:51,920 --> 01:34:57,400 I don't know if I will. I'm not particularly motivated 1416 01:34:57,400 --> 01:35:01,280 by either those two guys for for different reasons, but similar. 1417 01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:06,120 But they just talked about getting out of neighborhoods, 1418 01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:09,560 certain neighborhoods. There we go. 1419 01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:11,080 Let me find it here. Yeah, here we go. 1420 01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:20,520 So this is not, this is not a opinion held just by Taylor 1421 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:25,120 Swift or by a few others. It's being openly talked about 1422 01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:29,560 across across the board. Here you have Jewish libertarian 1423 01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:33,840 David Smith and big, giant little tiny evil Twinkie man 1424 01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:37,520 Nick Fuentes talking about getting out of certain 1425 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:38,840 neighborhoods. This is something that, you 1426 01:35:38,840 --> 01:35:47,000 know, Scott Dilbert talked about and drew tremendous amount of 1427 01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:50,400 Flack a few years ago saying like, look, you just got to get 1428 01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:53,880 out if you're if you've got the means, don't live in these in 1429 01:35:53,880 --> 01:35:56,280 these neighborhoods because it's going to get bad and only going 1430 01:35:56,280 --> 01:35:59,520 to get worse. And we're certainly seeing those 1431 01:35:59,520 --> 01:36:03,040 results. He said the thing he was like, 1432 01:36:03,040 --> 01:36:04,920 my advice to white people is just don't be around blacks. 1433 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:07,240 Like just move away, move to a different neighborhood where 1434 01:36:07,240 --> 01:36:09,080 they're not there. And then, and I remember first 1435 01:36:09,080 --> 01:36:12,040 hearing that and going like, yo, that's fucked up, dude. 1436 01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:14,720 And then like the second after I went, oh, that's fucked up. 1437 01:36:14,720 --> 01:36:16,480 I went, this is exactly what I did. 1438 01:36:17,440 --> 01:36:20,600 That is exactly what I did. You know, I mean, I Remember Me 1439 01:36:20,600 --> 01:36:23,000 and my wife were looking at the town that we ultimately moved 1440 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:24,880 to. And it's just like, like there 1441 01:36:24,880 --> 01:36:27,120 was like a grading thing. You know, when you look at towns 1442 01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:32,120 and they're like schools A+ like this A+ this A+ crime A+, this A 1443 01:36:32,280 --> 01:36:34,680 plus and they go diversity D minus. 1444 01:36:35,040 --> 01:36:38,560 And I was like, cool. I mean, and it's again, it's not 1445 01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:41,200 like I don't care, but it's like those other things are important 1446 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:43,040 to me. And they do seem to be attached 1447 01:36:43,040 --> 01:36:45,240 to this one. And so it's like, I think in 1448 01:36:45,240 --> 01:36:48,680 order to kind of put this fire out, you would have to do, there 1449 01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:50,560 would have to be some type of system where it's like, look 1450 01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:55,800 like white people are they're they can't be discriminated 1451 01:36:55,800 --> 01:36:58,440 against under the law and they can't be discriminated against 1452 01:36:58,520 --> 01:37:00,880 in other ways either. And they have to also be allowed 1453 01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:04,040 to say what they want to say. Then to your point, there are 1454 01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:05,960 legitimate grievances that black people have. 1455 01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:09,840 I mean, there is no, and I, this is my own bias, I guess, but 1456 01:37:10,040 --> 01:37:12,760 much of it doing with government policy is that almost everything 1457 01:37:12,760 --> 01:37:14,880 that's handed to them from the state is absolute garbage. 1458 01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:17,400 Either schools are really bad and they're, you know, there's, 1459 01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:19,120 there's like legitimate grievances there. 1460 01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:26,120 I also think, like, welfare has done enormous damage, but you 1461 01:37:26,120 --> 01:37:28,040 kind of can't just blame all your problems on white people 1462 01:37:28,040 --> 01:37:30,120 and racism. I mean, that actually is not 1463 01:37:30,120 --> 01:37:32,360 really what's holding black people back in this country. 1464 01:37:32,360 --> 01:37:35,320 And I think we have to be honest about that if we don't want 1465 01:37:35,320 --> 01:37:37,120 things to go in an ugly direction. 1466 01:37:38,080 --> 01:37:41,320 Well, David, so Dave's saying a whole bunch of things here that 1467 01:37:41,320 --> 01:37:46,520 gets to authority, gets to power, gets who, who rules if 1468 01:37:46,520 --> 01:37:47,560 you're a black person in America. 1469 01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:49,760 He's just saying they have they have legitimate grievances. 1470 01:37:49,760 --> 01:37:51,480 Well, what legitimizes the grievances? 1471 01:37:52,000 --> 01:37:53,200 Well, the state that they're living in. 1472 01:37:54,120 --> 01:37:58,400 So, and this is I, I'm not alone in saying this, of course, it's 1473 01:37:58,400 --> 01:38:01,560 like, so you're basically saying that blacks is a group is a 1474 01:38:01,560 --> 01:38:05,800 category in America here don't have sovereignty, they don't 1475 01:38:05,800 --> 01:38:08,880 have agency. They are predated upon by a 1476 01:38:08,880 --> 01:38:11,000 system. Now you can say that system is a 1477 01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:14,880 white system or you know, based on a white system, colonialism, 1478 01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:17,000 all the rest of it, white supremacy, yada, yada, yada. 1479 01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:21,080 Or the system is separate and it doesn't have these categories 1480 01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:24,680 that the system would be this way regardless of its historical 1481 01:38:24,680 --> 01:38:27,240 roots within white whiteness or Christendom or etcetera, 1482 01:38:27,240 --> 01:38:28,400 etcetera, etcetera, right? OK. 1483 01:38:29,160 --> 01:38:32,040 Either way you want to look at it, if you're saying that their 1484 01:38:32,040 --> 01:38:35,960 grievances have merit, well, the only reason they have you can 1485 01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:39,360 say they have merit is that they don't have authority. 1486 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:44,560 They have no authority. The authority has been given is 1487 01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:48,480 is been taken from them and is being used against them by the 1488 01:38:48,480 --> 01:38:55,120 system right. That nebulous always go to which 1489 01:38:55,120 --> 01:38:57,600 may or may not be true, but it's a heck of a thing to say. 1490 01:38:58,640 --> 01:39:02,640 And so the only way to avoid those who those who have no 1491 01:39:02,640 --> 01:39:05,360 authority is to take, is to take your own authority and get the 1492 01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:09,880 heck away from them. That's the, you know, that seems 1493 01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:13,080 to be the remedy. Of course, as we know, it 1494 01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:15,680 doesn't remedy everything. Because while you're worried 1495 01:39:15,680 --> 01:39:20,040 about, let's say the blacks, you may not be worried about the 1496 01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:23,040 Indians or the Hindus or this or that other group that kind of 1497 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:30,880 gets in there as well. More mobile, more more upperly 1498 01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:34,520 mobile. Come up with an HH, you know, 1499 01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:37,520 with a visa. Get a nice cushy job in a tech 1500 01:39:37,520 --> 01:39:40,360 firm making six figures. They can afford to live in your 1501 01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:43,120 nice little gated community. Oops, Dave. 1502 01:39:43,680 --> 01:39:45,760 Of course. I find it interesting too. 1503 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:48,200 The category of white is always used here, right? 1504 01:39:49,760 --> 01:39:55,640 Dave Smith, Ashanazi Jew, Nick Fuentes, something Latino, 1505 01:39:55,640 --> 01:39:59,120 Latin, someone. Not classically what you 1506 01:39:59,120 --> 01:40:04,160 consider white here folks. This is my other category error. 1507 01:40:04,400 --> 01:40:06,400 Is this magical white person category? 1508 01:40:07,240 --> 01:40:11,000 Right, that many people assign this authority to authority of 1509 01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:14,040 civilization itself, of Western civilization, of the history of 1510 01:40:14,040 --> 01:40:16,280 the West is borne by white people. 1511 01:40:16,560 --> 01:40:19,640 The problem is, is that when you get into different categories of 1512 01:40:19,640 --> 01:40:22,920 white, well, and I've experienced this first hand 1513 01:40:22,920 --> 01:40:27,480 living in Quebec, if you're not pure, then if you're not, you 1514 01:40:27,480 --> 01:40:31,800 know, a pure Quebecker with your lineage going all the way back 1515 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:35,360 to the early days of Quebec settlement by the French, then 1516 01:40:36,200 --> 01:40:38,960 you're sure you're white, but you're not, You're not. 1517 01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:42,280 You're not a francophone. So distinctions made within 1518 01:40:42,280 --> 01:40:47,280 distinctions, it's always the case. 1519 01:40:47,400 --> 01:40:49,160 It's like, yeah, yeah, we're all white. 1520 01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:52,000 We're all together on this when we have to be. 1521 01:40:52,400 --> 01:40:54,480 But once you get in that gated community, all of a sudden 1522 01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:56,760 little different differentiations are going to 1523 01:40:56,760 --> 01:40:58,720 occur. Little other purity spirals and 1524 01:40:58,720 --> 01:41:06,000 tests are going to happen. Jon Stewart is one of the the 1525 01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:09,200 best examples of this was a a quote there where he's saying, 1526 01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:12,080 you know, I think it's actually from from this. 1527 01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:13,240 Let me see if I can find it here. 1528 01:41:13,240 --> 01:41:16,280 Yeah, here we go. This is from Jon Stewart 1529 01:41:17,840 --> 01:41:20,520 back-to-back quotes. One quote says black people 1530 01:41:20,520 --> 01:41:22,320 should hate white people. We ruin everything. 1531 01:41:22,320 --> 01:41:26,000 We're Dicks. Jon Stewart next quote is Jews 1532 01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:28,080 and blacks shouldn't fight. Jews and blacks should get 1533 01:41:28,080 --> 01:41:30,040 together and get Whitey. Huh. 1534 01:41:31,720 --> 01:41:34,720 So which one are you, Dave? Which one are you, John? 1535 01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:39,840 Act of convenience. And just be clear, I actually 1536 01:41:39,840 --> 01:41:43,200 don't even fault the Jews for this because it's a mechanism. 1537 01:41:43,720 --> 01:41:46,400 It's like I don't fault women for defaulting to feminism when 1538 01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:49,920 whenever they need to. It's a tool, it's a weapon. 1539 01:41:50,400 --> 01:41:53,720 It's like if you don't criticize right wingers from using cancel 1540 01:41:53,720 --> 01:41:56,280 culture now that they can, they can use that effectively against 1541 01:41:56,560 --> 01:41:59,240 people who celebrated Charlie Kirk's assassination, etcetera. 1542 01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:03,000 Then you, you understand that, that hey, if there's a weapon on 1543 01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:05,920 the ground and it's called feminism and you're a woman and 1544 01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:08,760 so you get to wield that club, you're going to, you're going to 1545 01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:14,920 use it sometimes takes an active, superior, active will to 1546 01:42:14,920 --> 01:42:16,680 not pick that thing up and use it. 1547 01:42:18,800 --> 01:42:21,440 Same thing for the Jews or same thing for the Latinos or same 1548 01:42:21,440 --> 01:42:26,520 thing for any subgroup who has a grievance or can say, ha, I've 1549 01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:31,800 been I've been victimized XYZ. Now I don't know enough about 1550 01:42:31,800 --> 01:42:33,440 Nick Fuentes. I don't know if he's used that 1551 01:42:33,440 --> 01:42:36,560 line of defense. I'm not saying he has calm down 1552 01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:39,000 gripers. He mentioned Nick Fuentes and 1553 01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:40,320 all of a sudden people show up in your mentions. 1554 01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:41,880 Oh the How dare you? Oh. 1555 01:42:43,160 --> 01:42:45,920 But just to talk about Nick Fuentes for a second, I did a 1556 01:42:45,920 --> 01:42:50,440 clip from a show a few weeks ago where I talked about Nick 1557 01:42:50,440 --> 01:42:54,760 softening his message because he going to have to in some ways, 1558 01:42:55,080 --> 01:42:58,400 in order to fit into the grander narrative to Ford his career, 1559 01:42:58,400 --> 01:43:01,200 his immediate career, he's going to be given, given the conch. 1560 01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:03,200 Well, he's going to have to do certain things. 1561 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:08,760 Now, of course, he's appearing. Nick Fuentes blames the Israel 1562 01:43:08,800 --> 01:43:10,640 for everything. And then he's softened on that 1563 01:43:10,640 --> 01:43:12,040 now. Doesn't blame Israel for 1564 01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:13,440 everything. He just blames the Jews in 1565 01:43:13,440 --> 01:43:17,880 general. He's come out and said, you 1566 01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:21,040 know, that the the problems here between Israel and Gaza doesn't 1567 01:43:21,040 --> 01:43:23,360 really come down to Netanyahu and Likud party. 1568 01:43:23,640 --> 01:43:25,400 It comes down to Jews in general. 1569 01:43:25,440 --> 01:43:27,880 This is Nick Fuentes thing. YouTube, don't not me. 1570 01:43:29,600 --> 01:43:33,280 I've watched the clips, guys, gripers and the mentions. 1571 01:43:33,280 --> 01:43:34,840 I've watched them. Don't worry, I've done my 1572 01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:37,800 research. But of course, he's sitting down 1573 01:43:38,400 --> 01:43:45,840 with Dave Smith, Jew, secular Jew. 1574 01:43:47,440 --> 01:43:49,360 Maybe he's, maybe he's a self hating Jew. 1575 01:43:49,360 --> 01:43:52,040 Maybe we can attribute that category and label to him that 1576 01:43:52,200 --> 01:43:53,920 that makes it OK. I don't know. 1577 01:43:53,920 --> 01:43:58,480 I don't know how this you're going to try to find a way to 1578 01:43:58,480 --> 01:44:02,200 excuse this because again, where do people put their authority 1579 01:44:04,040 --> 01:44:06,640 into personalities to media personalities? 1580 01:44:07,200 --> 01:44:11,920 Probably not the best idea. By the way, I'll tell you 1581 01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:14,480 straight up, don't put the authority of your thinking on to 1582 01:44:14,480 --> 01:44:17,760 me. What do I keep telling you? 1583 01:44:18,000 --> 01:44:20,080 Go to church, go to liturgy, talk to a priest. 1584 01:44:21,560 --> 01:44:22,840 You know, you're free not to listen to me. 1585 01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:26,640 I get things right all the time, but, you know, whatever. 1586 01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:33,200 Why would you want that? But, but here's the danger. 1587 01:44:35,560 --> 01:44:38,760 Dave Smith, who doesn't believe that Israel had any connection 1588 01:44:38,760 --> 01:44:40,640 to 911, regardless of all the data. 1589 01:44:41,120 --> 01:44:44,760 This is what I've been told. Find me a clip that Dave is 1590 01:44:44,760 --> 01:44:46,760 saying something different and I'll retract that. 1591 01:44:46,760 --> 01:44:53,800 But this is what I've been told. And you have Nick Fuentes 1592 01:44:53,800 --> 01:44:56,200 sitting down with him and treating him like an equal. 1593 01:44:56,520 --> 01:44:57,680 They're not getting into a combat. 1594 01:44:57,680 --> 01:44:58,840 I haven't watched the full episode. 1595 01:44:58,840 --> 01:45:01,360 I doubt that happened. I'm sure they had a nice cordial 1596 01:45:01,520 --> 01:45:07,120 conversation because Nick's trying to create a bigger media 1597 01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:10,720 career now. You might say he's maturing, 1598 01:45:12,280 --> 01:45:14,400 he's receiving new information, he's he's altering that 1599 01:45:14,400 --> 01:45:16,240 information. And I, I don't have a problem 1600 01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:23,040 with that, but it will require a softening because there's 1601 01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:26,600 certain things, there's certain positions you can't hold and be 1602 01:45:26,600 --> 01:45:29,920 a big name and get on Piers Morgan and all the rest of it 1603 01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:34,840 and have this big giant career. Can't be a flat earther, right? 1604 01:45:35,440 --> 01:45:38,480 I mean, they'll let you on to make fun of you, but that's it. 1605 01:45:38,480 --> 01:45:40,080 I mean, you're done. You're not going to get 1606 01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:47,040 anywhere. Can't be an H cost denier you 1607 01:45:47,040 --> 01:45:51,600 maybe I think Nick's question things or said that look, I 1608 01:45:51,600 --> 01:45:53,960 think actually let me see if I can find it here. 1609 01:45:55,880 --> 01:46:04,360 I think there's actually a clip here where Nick and and Dave 1610 01:46:04,360 --> 01:46:11,960 talk about the H cost, specifically trying to find it. 1611 01:46:15,040 --> 01:46:23,120 Yeah, here we go. Oh, this is about Peterson. 1612 01:46:27,000 --> 01:46:29,320 We'll play this anyways. Let's see if it's in here. 1613 01:46:30,680 --> 01:46:36,160 But there's a specific clip that I was referencing that where 1614 01:46:36,160 --> 01:46:37,880 Nick's like, look, you know, numbers and stuff. 1615 01:46:37,880 --> 01:46:40,960 I've watched the movies and came out with certain things, but 1616 01:46:41,280 --> 01:46:43,720 regardless of whether what what the number is or some of that, 1617 01:46:43,720 --> 01:46:45,640 it shouldn't be influencing our policies today. 1618 01:46:45,640 --> 01:46:50,680 And, and David Griesen, that's a nice middle ground position to 1619 01:46:50,680 --> 01:46:52,080 take, right? Yeah. 1620 01:46:52,120 --> 01:46:55,600 I don't disagree with that completely, but you start to see 1621 01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:58,320 that he's starting to soften his message gripers. 1622 01:46:59,120 --> 01:47:03,840 I know I got a lot of hate for that one, but it all comes down 1623 01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:07,720 to acknowledgement. Acknowledge me. 1624 01:47:09,760 --> 01:47:11,760 That's how the cachet, that's the currency. 1625 01:47:12,480 --> 01:47:18,160 There's certain things you can't hold and get get level up in the 1626 01:47:18,200 --> 01:47:20,640 in the media sphere. Not allowed. 1627 01:47:22,880 --> 01:47:26,320 So this is this is Dave and Nick talking about Jordan Peterson. 1628 01:47:26,360 --> 01:47:29,240 But to talk about. I just think that's bullshit. 1629 01:47:29,720 --> 01:47:32,080 Yeah, well, and Jordan, he even took it a step further. 1630 01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:34,520 I don't know if you saw his tweets about me, but he called 1631 01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:38,320 me a rat. He said Nick Fuentes is a rat. 1632 01:47:38,360 --> 01:47:40,840 And then he came back and amended it and said, no, wait, 1633 01:47:40,840 --> 01:47:44,560 he's not a rat because rats are odious by their nature. 1634 01:47:44,560 --> 01:47:47,320 He said Nick chooses to be a rat. 1635 01:47:47,560 --> 01:47:51,000 He's lower than rat. And it's like, and by the way, 1636 01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:54,240 isn't his also his whole thing like about totalitarianism and 1637 01:47:54,240 --> 01:47:58,640 like dehumanizing people? And, and, and I said to him, I, 1638 01:47:58,680 --> 01:48:01,200 I really was more just like astounded, like you said, 1639 01:48:01,200 --> 01:48:03,720 because he is different than the others. 1640 01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:06,040 That's like, he's always been different. 1641 01:48:06,680 --> 01:48:09,800 Jubiro is like an insane Zionist, like operative of 1642 01:48:09,800 --> 01:48:11,160 Israel, whatever you want to say. 1643 01:48:11,480 --> 01:48:15,960 But Peterson, like you said, he really was very influential for 1644 01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:17,760 young men. And I know that because I was 1645 01:48:17,760 --> 01:48:20,440 one of them at one point. And I had close friends that 1646 01:48:20,440 --> 01:48:25,120 loved his Bible lecture series, his podcast Maps of Meaning, 1647 01:48:25,120 --> 01:48:27,480 which was his original book. Pulled a lot of young kids away 1648 01:48:27,480 --> 01:48:29,120 from atheism. Major Yeah. 1649 01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:32,480 And, and towards Christianity and towards conservatism and all 1650 01:48:32,480 --> 01:48:33,880 of it. And you're right. 1651 01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:36,880 His claim to fame was that he was supposed to be this like 1652 01:48:36,880 --> 01:48:40,360 lodestar for the disaffected young man of the Trump 1653 01:48:40,360 --> 01:48:43,360 generation. And who represents that more 1654 01:48:43,360 --> 01:48:45,240 than me? I'm kind of like that archetypal 1655 01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:48,360 guy leading those people. And. 1656 01:48:48,360 --> 01:48:53,640 And I agree if he's got some. Acknowledge me. 1657 01:48:56,520 --> 01:48:59,840 Issue with me, first of all, why not just call me out? 1658 01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:03,080 It's this weird like thing that the left does where they say we 1659 01:49:03,080 --> 01:49:05,240 don't want to platform him, we don't want to give him 1660 01:49:05,240 --> 01:49:08,040 attention. But like you say, what then 1661 01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:11,320 happened to that whole deal where it's like it's a free 1662 01:49:11,320 --> 01:49:14,560 marketplace, We have to just talk or else we'll fight. 1663 01:49:14,560 --> 01:49:16,720 We have to, you know, have this marketplace. 1664 01:49:17,280 --> 01:49:20,800 So there's these layers of hypocrisy and no one's buying. 1665 01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:23,400 Nobody's, nobody's buying into that nonsense. 1666 01:49:23,400 --> 01:49:25,760 And it's sad because I think you've lost a lot of 1667 01:49:25,760 --> 01:49:28,040 credibility. Yeah, I, yeah, I completely 1668 01:49:28,040 --> 01:49:30,960 agree and. Completely agree. 1669 01:49:31,400 --> 01:49:36,280 Credibility Credibility from his position. 1670 01:49:37,000 --> 01:49:40,800 Here we go. Jordan Peterson authority over 1671 01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:42,480 many men. I still have this book, 12 Year 1672 01:49:42,480 --> 01:49:43,640 Olds for Life on the back shelf there. 1673 01:49:45,240 --> 01:49:46,520 Yeah. Jordan Peterson. 1674 01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:48,440 I've said this on the show for years now. 1675 01:49:48,440 --> 01:49:52,160 Jordan Peterson was a major influence in, in, in terms of 1676 01:49:52,160 --> 01:49:56,840 softening me towards Christianity to the point where 1677 01:49:56,840 --> 01:49:58,760 I could have a spiritual experience so I could bring 1678 01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:04,160 bring me back to the faith. And there you have it, right. 1679 01:50:04,160 --> 01:50:06,560 There's Jordan Peterson sitting in this in a special place. 1680 01:50:06,560 --> 01:50:10,400 He'd been was given authority by many young men, by the media 1681 01:50:11,720 --> 01:50:16,200 dissidents, all the rest of it, and then failed in his 1682 01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:19,880 responsibility and his discernment made people feel 1683 01:50:20,080 --> 01:50:23,400 that he, when he came, had that drug episode and came back from 1684 01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:28,520 Russia, wasn't the same man. You know, I've been affected by 1685 01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:33,640 the by the world. So his authority, which was 1686 01:50:33,640 --> 01:50:37,360 given to him, granted to him by his audience is now being 1687 01:50:37,480 --> 01:50:42,240 removed, taken. And you know, Nick is looking 1688 01:50:42,240 --> 01:50:47,760 too give it to himself, remove that authority from Jordan 1689 01:50:47,760 --> 01:50:50,800 Peterson and wear it himself where the crown sit upon the 1690 01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:54,880 throne. Interesting times. 1691 01:50:56,080 --> 01:50:58,120 Because what did Jordan Peterson, what was Jordan 1692 01:50:58,120 --> 01:51:01,080 Peterson given? He was given mainstream 1693 01:51:01,840 --> 01:51:05,080 platforming, maybe not acceptance, but certainly 1694 01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:07,720 platforming. He got on Joe Rogan. 1695 01:51:07,720 --> 01:51:13,720 He got, you know, he got on all the big shows solo, a whole 1696 01:51:13,720 --> 01:51:19,920 bunch of books. Acknowledge me. 1697 01:51:22,160 --> 01:51:23,360 That's how the game is played, folks. 1698 01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:26,920 Hey, look, I'm not even hating on them. 1699 01:51:27,560 --> 01:51:30,360 That's what it what it is. You get to a certain point, 1700 01:51:30,360 --> 01:51:34,040 that's what you want, that's what you crave, and you justify 1701 01:51:34,040 --> 01:51:36,400 it all the ways you can. You think you're going to save 1702 01:51:36,400 --> 01:51:37,840 the world, you're going to change things, you're going to 1703 01:51:37,840 --> 01:51:40,560 make things better. I get that platform, man. 1704 01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:43,240 I'm going to speak truth. I'm going to drive people away 1705 01:51:43,240 --> 01:51:46,120 from from the evil and bring them to the good, take them out 1706 01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:48,160 of the darkness and bring them to bring them to the light. 1707 01:51:52,520 --> 01:51:55,880 But the question is, here are any of these people? 1708 01:51:55,880 --> 01:51:59,960 Dave Smith, Nick Fuentes, Jordan Peterson, and I'm not throwing 1709 01:51:59,960 --> 01:52:04,640 anyone under the bus. It's a failing of humanity. 1710 01:52:04,800 --> 01:52:07,120 They're human. If I'm saying anything 1711 01:52:07,120 --> 01:52:09,360 derogatory about them, it's just somebody saying they're doing 1712 01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:11,480 human things because that's how humans do. 1713 01:52:11,600 --> 01:52:16,840 Oops. It's why to be part of the 1714 01:52:16,840 --> 01:52:23,400 church is to be not of this world, to try to do things that 1715 01:52:23,400 --> 01:52:28,160 are not explicitly human, to break the pattern. 1716 01:52:29,080 --> 01:52:31,880 What's the one thing we're we're, we're told to do in 1717 01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:33,560 Christianity? Basically an Orthodox 1718 01:52:33,920 --> 01:52:36,720 Christianities love thy neighbor, give to your neighbor 1719 01:52:36,720 --> 01:52:42,240 without the expectation of any material or worldly return. 1720 01:52:43,920 --> 01:52:45,960 Just give it to them because it's good to give. 1721 01:52:46,480 --> 01:52:48,520 The, the, the giving itself is good. 1722 01:52:50,000 --> 01:52:54,120 There's a term, and this is something that Gerard talks a 1723 01:52:54,120 --> 01:52:59,880 lot about, but reciprocity. Reciprocity is mimetic in 1724 01:53:00,040 --> 01:53:02,280 itself. Give you an example. 1725 01:53:03,440 --> 01:53:04,520 And some cultures have made this. 1726 01:53:04,520 --> 01:53:06,520 You know, the handshake or the bow, right? 1727 01:53:06,520 --> 01:53:10,240 If you go to Asian cultures, go to Japan, someone bows, you bow 1728 01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:13,560 back, and sometimes you bow lower. 1729 01:53:14,160 --> 01:53:18,560 He who bows lowest is the most giving because you're kind of 1730 01:53:18,560 --> 01:53:20,560 being the most vulnerable in that position. 1731 01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:25,200 But it's reciprocity. One monkey, Monkey sees, monkey 1732 01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:28,560 does, right? I hold up my hand, you shake it, 1733 01:53:29,640 --> 01:53:31,960 you return the certain, certain firmness of the Sheikh. 1734 01:53:31,960 --> 01:53:35,880 You can tell a lot about a man by his handshake, but it's 1735 01:53:36,080 --> 01:53:41,360 supposed to be reciprocal. I give, you receive. 1736 01:53:41,400 --> 01:53:43,960 You give. I receive exchange. 1737 01:53:46,280 --> 01:53:50,560 What a core tenets of Christianity is to give without 1738 01:53:50,560 --> 01:53:53,680 the expectation of receiving. If you receive, great, 1739 01:53:53,720 --> 01:53:56,480 wonderful, thank you very much. If you don't, no problem. 1740 01:53:57,280 --> 01:53:58,880 I wasn't looking forward in the first place. 1741 01:54:01,280 --> 01:54:04,920 That's hard. Everything we do in this world, 1742 01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:07,440 especially the material world, when you bring into novelism to 1743 01:54:07,440 --> 01:54:10,600 play is is down to the the exchange. 1744 01:54:11,160 --> 01:54:16,320 These markets. Libertarianism itself is based 1745 01:54:16,320 --> 01:54:20,360 on this idea, free markets, free exchange, the marketplace of 1746 01:54:20,360 --> 01:54:22,160 ideas. We're exchanging ideas, we're 1747 01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:24,360 competing these ideas, but we're exchanging them. 1748 01:54:24,920 --> 01:54:27,720 These things have some sort of intrinsic value. 1749 01:54:30,480 --> 01:54:32,360 You know, bucks in the chat, he he can speak of this. 1750 01:54:32,640 --> 01:54:35,280 You do start doing these shows. You have to believe in the sort 1751 01:54:35,280 --> 01:54:39,880 of the the value of the show bereft of any kind of material 1752 01:54:39,880 --> 01:54:43,000 exchange of the show. What it, you know, maybe you're 1753 01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:45,800 getting something from it or you hope others are. 1754 01:54:47,440 --> 01:54:49,160 But if you're only doing the show for money, well, this is 1755 01:54:49,160 --> 01:54:50,680 kind of a bad way of doing it really. 1756 01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:55,840 You know, there's much better ways to make money. 1757 01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:03,280 Even any somebody's just talk in the media sphere, you know, tell 1758 01:55:03,280 --> 01:55:05,360 the people what they want to hear and you'll make a lot of 1759 01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:09,720 money. Tell the people they don't want 1760 01:55:09,720 --> 01:55:12,200 to hear. It's a tough grind. 1761 01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:24,320 Buck says human action does speak volumes. 1762 01:55:24,360 --> 01:55:26,320 It's the only thing that we can really judge. 1763 01:55:27,480 --> 01:55:29,520 Can't judge someone's thoughts. We don't know their thoughts. 1764 01:55:30,040 --> 01:55:34,320 We can judge people's words that comes that streams from 1765 01:55:34,320 --> 01:55:39,800 thoughts, certainly, but you know, words are words. 1766 01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:44,680 Actions, however, those can't be taken back. 1767 01:55:45,040 --> 01:55:48,320 You can misspeak, you can be inaccurate in your wording, you 1768 01:55:48,320 --> 01:55:52,160 can speak out of ignorance, and certainly you can act out of 1769 01:55:52,160 --> 01:55:55,680 those things too. But the ACT can't be taken back. 1770 01:55:56,120 --> 01:55:58,240 You can't really retract the act. 1771 01:55:59,480 --> 01:56:01,360 An interesting thing now, of course that everything's been 1772 01:56:01,360 --> 01:56:03,840 digitalized and mortalized. You can it's hard to even take 1773 01:56:03,840 --> 01:56:08,800 back the words because people will attribute to your words a 1774 01:56:08,800 --> 01:56:11,520 certain thought. And now you got to you got some 1775 01:56:11,520 --> 01:56:17,480 explaining to do, because ultimately. 1776 01:56:18,400 --> 01:56:20,960 I'll tell you what I think. It doesn't matter what you 1777 01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:24,720 think. It only matters what you say and 1778 01:56:24,720 --> 01:56:27,160 what you do. And it doesn't even really 1779 01:56:27,160 --> 01:56:30,960 matter what you say so much. It does matter what you do, how 1780 01:56:30,960 --> 01:56:34,920 you act and how others, because others will model your actions. 1781 01:56:35,520 --> 01:56:39,800 They might ape your words. But if we start to say now that 1782 01:56:39,880 --> 01:56:42,840 let's say you're in media, well, your words are in the sense your 1783 01:56:42,840 --> 01:56:46,680 actions, it's your job, it's your, it's your proclivity. 1784 01:56:46,680 --> 01:56:51,120 You build this audience to speak to them, to show your face to, 1785 01:56:51,680 --> 01:56:54,840 you know, proclaim certain things to direct them into 1786 01:56:54,840 --> 01:57:00,680 certain narratives and those narratives, the the entailment 1787 01:57:00,680 --> 01:57:04,640 of all that leads to action or inaction, which is a form of 1788 01:57:04,640 --> 01:57:08,080 action itself. To do or not to do, that is the 1789 01:57:08,080 --> 01:57:11,920 question. Especially in this world now 1790 01:57:11,920 --> 01:57:14,120 where things are heating up, things are getting more 1791 01:57:14,120 --> 01:57:16,160 precarious. I don't know about how what your 1792 01:57:16,160 --> 01:57:18,760 feed is. I've had it now switched to my 1793 01:57:18,760 --> 01:57:22,160 ex feed just to go to lists or I just go to my Orthodox list 1794 01:57:22,160 --> 01:57:24,640 because I can't deal with my my standard feed. 1795 01:57:25,400 --> 01:57:26,320 It's the first thing in the morning. 1796 01:57:26,320 --> 01:57:28,400 You just, you know, get up, have your coffee, say your prayers 1797 01:57:28,680 --> 01:57:30,280 for me. You have a smoke and then sit 1798 01:57:30,280 --> 01:57:31,800 down and go, OK, what's going on in this world? 1799 01:57:34,760 --> 01:57:40,320 Death, murder, death, another guy shot by immigrant, blah, 1800 01:57:40,320 --> 01:57:44,160 blah, blah. It's intense. 1801 01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:48,920 It's too much. How do we get the spirit of the 1802 01:57:48,920 --> 01:57:52,080 vengeful sun? Well, because everyone's inputs, 1803 01:57:52,640 --> 01:57:55,400 or let's say a lot of people's inputs are negative. 1804 01:57:56,160 --> 01:58:03,600 Resentfulness, anger, anguish, depression, despair, those 1805 01:58:03,600 --> 01:58:05,480 merchants of despair are working overtime. 1806 01:58:05,480 --> 01:58:10,440 When we get to brick coin and other manifestations of all 1807 01:58:10,440 --> 01:58:13,880 this, the only, the only end result is despair. 1808 01:58:14,640 --> 01:58:16,080 What? What do they need to control 1809 01:58:16,080 --> 01:58:18,360 your currency for? What's your control, your 1810 01:58:18,360 --> 01:58:21,640 spending or what you say online and all these things? 1811 01:58:21,640 --> 01:58:25,400 Why you pose no threats? They get away with everything 1812 01:58:25,400 --> 01:58:27,120 they want to do anyways. Why? 1813 01:58:27,120 --> 01:58:29,600 Of course they have been so far anyways. 1814 01:58:29,600 --> 01:58:31,960 And if they just do something halfway decent, they could get 1815 01:58:31,960 --> 01:58:38,600 away with a lot more. We even know they're wrong and 1816 01:58:38,600 --> 01:58:42,400 do nothing. And I'm saying this by myself 1817 01:58:42,400 --> 01:58:46,760 too quite often. Let me see if I can find that 1818 01:58:46,760 --> 01:58:50,080 quote. It's great ex posts recently 1819 01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:53,960 that sort of elucidates this and puts the responsibility again on 1820 01:58:53,960 --> 01:59:01,280 us as Christians because it's fine enough to say certain 1821 01:59:01,280 --> 01:59:03,520 things. Here we go from Subdeacon John. 1822 01:59:03,760 --> 01:59:09,400 Put this on the screen so I can big screen this. 1823 01:59:13,840 --> 01:59:16,760 This is from Subdeacon John. The voice of the Church has been 1824 01:59:16,760 --> 01:59:20,280 hidden behind the walls of ethnicity, not wanting to stand 1825 01:59:20,280 --> 01:59:23,240 out, avoiding confrontation and missionary efforts towards 1826 01:59:23,240 --> 01:59:30,000 Evangela, Evangela evangelizing only those of similar moral 1827 01:59:30,000 --> 01:59:32,320 convictions. Hidden also is the voice of the 1828 01:59:32,320 --> 01:59:35,040 church addressing so many issues facing the world today. 1829 01:59:35,520 --> 01:59:38,480 Now more than ever we are in need of strong and clear voices 1830 01:59:38,480 --> 01:59:42,320 speaking the truth of what and who is Christ, sin, salvation, 1831 01:59:42,760 --> 01:59:46,000 the church, the Saints. We also need strong and clear 1832 01:59:46,000 --> 01:59:48,840 voices addressing the multitude of issues of our day, 1833 01:59:49,080 --> 01:59:52,720 consumerism, homosexuality, transgenderism, same sex unions, 1834 01:59:52,720 --> 01:59:56,520 abortion, pornography, fortification, BLM, Marxism, 1835 01:59:56,520 --> 02:00:00,160 fascism, screen addiction, gossip, idolatry of politics, 1836 02:00:00,160 --> 02:00:02,840 idolatry of sports, idolatry of education, idolatry of 1837 02:00:02,840 --> 02:00:06,320 profession, idolatry of children and family, idolatry of money, 1838 02:00:06,320 --> 02:00:11,240 etcetera, the authorities of this world. 1839 02:00:15,320 --> 02:00:20,040 Again, when the Orthodox frame the world is often meaning the 1840 02:00:20,040 --> 02:00:22,080 collection of the passions, when you speak of the passions 1841 02:00:22,080 --> 02:00:25,320 collectively we say the world's. We bring death to this world, 1842 02:00:25,520 --> 02:00:27,240 we're bringing death to the passions. 1843 02:00:27,240 --> 02:00:33,880 That's which is the fertile ground of sin, lust, avarice, 1844 02:00:34,080 --> 02:00:41,160 greed, sorry, greed, avarice, gluttony, wrath, list goes on. 1845 02:00:43,120 --> 02:00:44,920 These are the things that fuel us. 1846 02:00:44,920 --> 02:00:49,120 That's the devil's playground. It's easy to activate the 1847 02:00:49,120 --> 02:00:55,560 passions we have a we've we've handed these and many more 1848 02:00:55,560 --> 02:00:57,880 issues to the world without a whimper. 1849 02:00:58,240 --> 02:01:01,520 Why? Because we are lazy, scared, and 1850 02:01:01,520 --> 02:01:03,880 in many cases supportive. And he's talking to Orthodox 1851 02:01:03,880 --> 02:01:07,120 Christians. We read in the 1st chapter of 1852 02:01:07,120 --> 02:01:10,320 Romans the condemnation of being filled with all unrighteousness, 1853 02:01:10,320 --> 02:01:13,960 sexual immorality, wickedness, covetenousness, maliciousness, 1854 02:01:14,200 --> 02:01:17,400 full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil mindedness. 1855 02:01:17,600 --> 02:01:20,800 They are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud 1856 02:01:20,800 --> 02:01:23,400 boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to our 1857 02:01:23,400 --> 02:01:26,240 parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, 1858 02:01:26,240 --> 02:01:32,560 unforgiving, unmerciful Romans. We as a church have accepted 1859 02:01:32,560 --> 02:01:35,400 these things out of silence, laziness, and indifference. 1860 02:01:35,760 --> 02:01:38,040 Many of us have been taken the side of, of trying not to 1861 02:01:38,040 --> 02:01:39,880 practice those things in our own lives. 1862 02:01:40,200 --> 02:01:42,640 But we've accepted those lifestyles and others out of 1863 02:01:42,640 --> 02:01:47,160 false humility. Who am I to say it's wrong? 1864 02:01:47,720 --> 02:01:50,520 Many others have accepted alternative lifestyles, and by 1865 02:01:50,520 --> 02:01:53,480 this I mean a lifestyle in opposition to the Scriptures. 1866 02:01:53,760 --> 02:01:56,880 Let's not forget what the great apostle says at the end of the 1867 02:01:56,880 --> 02:01:59,640 first chapter. Romans who knowing the righteous 1868 02:01:59,640 --> 02:02:02,480 judgment of God that those who practice such things are 1869 02:02:02,480 --> 02:02:05,960 deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of 1870 02:02:05,960 --> 02:02:10,680 those who practice them. Going back to the start of the 1871 02:02:10,680 --> 02:02:14,040 show with Father Josiah is talking about the consequences, 1872 02:02:15,720 --> 02:02:21,280 how God will not even save the priests who fall away, who you 1873 02:02:21,280 --> 02:02:27,760 know fornicate or get drunk and accents happen is purposeful. 1874 02:02:29,560 --> 02:02:34,440 The discernment for repentance. Even we say this in our nightly 1875 02:02:34,440 --> 02:02:36,400 prayers when we ask for forgiveness for our Lord, when 1876 02:02:36,400 --> 02:02:37,800 we bear witness, we're bearing witness. 1877 02:02:37,800 --> 02:02:42,240 When we're confessing to to God in our prayers, it's for our 1878 02:02:42,240 --> 02:02:45,840 sins, both knowing and unknowing. 1879 02:02:47,000 --> 02:02:51,800 So those that what we did on purpose and that which we did by 1880 02:02:51,800 --> 02:02:58,320 accident didn't even realize both of those things carry, 1881 02:02:58,320 --> 02:03:01,120 carry weight. We must repent for both of the 1882 02:03:01,120 --> 02:03:05,760 same time. This is why the responsibility 1883 02:03:05,760 --> 02:03:10,400 is heavy because anyone who's realizing that I'm a Sinner, I'm 1884 02:03:10,400 --> 02:03:16,160 imperfect, I make mistakes both knowing and knowing, you know, 1885 02:03:16,160 --> 02:03:19,160 I'm not as I'm not as giving as I could have been today. 1886 02:03:19,160 --> 02:03:22,720 I'm not as this generous. I'm not as loving, I'm not as 1887 02:03:22,720 --> 02:03:26,240 forgiving. I'm not, as you know, we can 1888 02:03:26,240 --> 02:03:30,360 look at the, the big fall offs, the big cliffs, but they're all 1889 02:03:30,360 --> 02:03:32,600 this little, slight little nudges that gets us off the 1890 02:03:32,600 --> 02:03:36,200 road. It's easy to defend against the 1891 02:03:36,200 --> 02:03:38,400 big ones because you recognize the big ones. 1892 02:03:38,400 --> 02:03:41,200 But when you start getting into the, you know, the mechanisms of 1893 02:03:41,200 --> 02:03:45,320 pride, it's a tangled web. You start to untangle this stuff 1894 02:03:45,320 --> 02:03:50,520 and it's like it's, it's difficult because it starts to 1895 02:03:50,800 --> 02:03:56,240 get to the root of who you are, to God, All of it, everything 1896 02:03:56,240 --> 02:04:04,280 that you thought you were, you weren't that that was just your 1897 02:04:04,280 --> 02:04:06,560 pride, your Vainglory, your avarice, your greed, your 1898 02:04:06,560 --> 02:04:09,200 passions. That was this false self that 1899 02:04:09,200 --> 02:04:12,960 you have to RIP away. And it's a very uncomfortable 1900 02:04:12,960 --> 02:04:16,000 experience. And that doesn't go away just 1901 02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:19,280 because you're given authority. It just magnifies the 1902 02:04:19,280 --> 02:04:22,200 responsibility of that authority to address these things within 1903 02:04:22,200 --> 02:04:28,200 yourself. Saint John Chrysostom says the 1904 02:04:28,200 --> 02:04:31,360 one who praises the sin of others is far worse than the one 1905 02:04:31,360 --> 02:04:34,560 who sins himself. That is, if we approve and 1906 02:04:34,960 --> 02:04:38,960 support immorality, we are even guiltier than those who practice 1907 02:04:38,960 --> 02:04:41,080 it. And how might one approve and 1908 02:04:41,080 --> 02:04:44,720 support such things openly, publicly, politically, quietly, 1909 02:04:44,720 --> 02:04:47,560 privately, interiorly or with our silence? 1910 02:04:51,680 --> 02:04:54,880 This is a big problem with the conditions of righteousness. 1911 02:04:56,160 --> 02:04:58,840 I say the problem with a vengeful son is it's going to 1912 02:04:58,840 --> 02:05:05,920 feel good that vengeance is going to get coded as justice. 1913 02:05:06,280 --> 02:05:08,920 People go, no, I know what, I know the difference. 1914 02:05:08,920 --> 02:05:11,560 I'm like, how could you know? Look at your life. 1915 02:05:12,680 --> 02:05:14,840 It's not. And this is not a it sounds like 1916 02:05:14,840 --> 02:05:19,360 a criticism then. Yeah, of course it is in some 1917 02:05:19,360 --> 02:05:22,680 ways, but it's not negative. It's not like putting it on you. 1918 02:05:22,680 --> 02:05:27,640 How dare you? You just have to do an audit on 1919 02:05:27,640 --> 02:05:30,240 yourself and realize that, hey, I'm lacking in certain 1920 02:05:30,240 --> 02:05:35,880 categories here and to assume the mantle and to give myself 1921 02:05:35,880 --> 02:05:41,400 authority, but I do not, I have not earned and I have no, no 1922 02:05:41,400 --> 02:05:44,280 reason to think that I know good, good from bad. 1923 02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:46,880 In many of these cases, I looking back my own life and 1924 02:05:47,040 --> 02:05:49,720 look at the ways I've lived my life or certain things I've 1925 02:05:49,720 --> 02:05:52,080 supported or certain things that I've thought were good. 1926 02:05:52,360 --> 02:05:55,960 And now five years later or so, I'm like, well, that was awful. 1927 02:05:59,760 --> 02:06:06,320 And it's easy to repent or not do certain things that you 1928 02:06:06,320 --> 02:06:09,040 removed from your purview, taking it off your table. 1929 02:06:09,280 --> 02:06:10,520 Good for you. Great. 1930 02:06:12,920 --> 02:06:16,720 But have you really changed? Have you addressed the 1931 02:06:16,720 --> 02:06:19,840 motivation for that thing? Why you had it in the first 1932 02:06:19,840 --> 02:06:24,000 place? Why did you think being drunk or 1933 02:06:24,040 --> 02:06:26,880 dependent on drugs or whatever fornications, you know, all 1934 02:06:26,880 --> 02:06:30,640 these irregularities, Why did you think that was OK in the 1st 1935 02:06:30,640 --> 02:06:33,880 place? Why we're using it, You think 1936 02:06:33,880 --> 02:06:35,880 you've gotten to the just because you're not doing that 1937 02:06:35,880 --> 02:06:37,160 anymore. You think you got that under 1938 02:06:37,160 --> 02:06:41,760 control. You think lust is just stepping 1939 02:06:41,760 --> 02:06:44,760 out on your on your love, you know, your wife or you know, 1940 02:06:45,200 --> 02:06:46,480 play, you know, playing the field. 1941 02:06:48,560 --> 02:06:53,000 It's more complicated than that, and it should be. 1942 02:06:53,280 --> 02:06:56,760 It ought to be. It should give us hesitation, 1943 02:06:58,200 --> 02:07:02,400 rightful hesitation, for to assume that suddenly, just 1944 02:07:02,400 --> 02:07:05,600 because I go to liturgy every Sunday, now that I know 1945 02:07:05,720 --> 02:07:08,960 something that I don't know, I've read the book. 1946 02:07:08,960 --> 02:07:11,640 So I can, you know, tell you what energies and essences is. 1947 02:07:12,040 --> 02:07:14,840 You know, I've read these.

I know what do you know? 1949 02:07:16,560 --> 02:07:24,080 You should realize that you know nothing, $15. 1950 02:07:25,040 --> 02:07:31,920 Patrick, thank you get yourself a Ding, get yourself a yeah and 1951 02:07:31,920 --> 02:07:36,680 you get yourself a whoa.

Keeps me out of the headlines. 1960 02:08:07,640 --> 02:08:08,920 It's something that's substantiated. 1961 02:08:08,920 --> 02:08:10,800 And I started smoking, what, 35 years ago? 1962 02:08:13,000 --> 02:08:19,680 It's been with me for a while, so you know, but where does this 1963 02:08:19,680 --> 02:08:21,720 desire come from? Why do I need this thing? 1964 02:08:22,320 --> 02:08:24,200 Why isn't God enough? Why do I have to? 1965 02:08:25,720 --> 02:08:28,640 I don't need the chemical. That's a big question for 1966 02:08:28,640 --> 02:08:32,640 myself. Is it born out of self hatred? 1967 02:08:34,280 --> 02:08:37,040 Born out of taking the authority over my life, saying I'm going 1968 02:08:37,040 --> 02:08:39,720 to decide how I'm going to die? I'm going to die of cancer or 1969 02:08:39,720 --> 02:08:43,120 heart attack? Well, let's have some fun along 1970 02:08:43,120 --> 02:08:46,080 the way. Expensive, delicious fun. 1971 02:08:51,840 --> 02:08:57,880 It's a nail on the cross, right? I on just a personal note, 1972 02:08:58,320 --> 02:09:00,400 there's a little side. We'll get to Tucker Carlson in a 1973 02:09:00,400 --> 02:09:02,120 second. And thanks for everyone who's 1974 02:09:02,160 --> 02:09:03,720 been sticking with the with the show. 1975 02:09:07,400 --> 02:09:13,040 I won't get into the details of it all, but just recently it's, 1976 02:09:13,040 --> 02:09:19,640 it's interesting, this, this royal path I've talked about 1977 02:09:20,800 --> 02:09:22,440 Christ on the lips, not in the heart. 1978 02:09:22,680 --> 02:09:24,160 You say these things or you sort. 1979 02:09:24,680 --> 02:09:26,920 To try to. Be this thing without 1980 02:09:26,920 --> 02:09:29,880 understanding it really, you got to almost fake it till you make 1981 02:09:29,880 --> 02:09:33,520 it kind of out of you. You know, it's almost you, you 1982 02:09:34,680 --> 02:09:36,840 you sort of incorporate the habit into your life, but you 1983 02:09:36,840 --> 02:09:38,280 don't really understand the fullness of it. 1984 02:09:38,280 --> 02:09:40,920 But you're, you know, you're starting to understand little 1985 02:09:40,920 --> 02:09:42,400 bits of it. Some of things get chipped away. 1986 02:09:45,280 --> 02:09:49,600 And I guess my mind's been on on suffering, on personal 1987 02:09:49,600 --> 02:09:51,480 suffering. Quite a bit lately. 1988 02:09:52,040 --> 02:09:59,160 As a my own life and just as a concept and one of the things 1989 02:09:59,160 --> 02:10:06,080 they talk about quite often. I know Father, Father Moses, I'm 1990 02:10:06,080 --> 02:10:08,000 just thinking one of his humblies came to mind. 1991 02:10:08,600 --> 02:10:10,120 But the rightful position of the of the. 1992 02:10:10,120 --> 02:10:14,000 Christian is on the. Cross right we we were called to 1993 02:10:14,000 --> 02:10:17,400 be crucified. That is the suffering itself, 1994 02:10:20,040 --> 02:10:24,400 because it's, it's easier in this world to abandon all that 1995 02:10:24,400 --> 02:10:29,960 stuff and just go with the flow, to be of the world, to hold the 1996 02:10:29,960 --> 02:10:33,000 positions of the world, to soften yourself. 1997 02:10:35,480 --> 02:10:39,480 The flesh cries out, don't suffer, don't hold line. 1998 02:10:39,480 --> 02:10:44,120 Don't you know, maybe you said some things in the past, you 1999 02:10:44,120 --> 02:10:46,680 know, adopt, adopt another stance. 2000 02:10:46,680 --> 02:10:50,840 It's going to be easier for you. You'll get invited to the good 2001 02:10:50,840 --> 02:10:57,360 parties. Maybe, maybe that's true. 2002 02:10:57,360 --> 02:11:01,160 Maybe it's not, you know, don't hold certain opinions. 2003 02:11:01,160 --> 02:11:05,240 Now, look, you know, a lot of people think I'm talking about 2004 02:11:05,240 --> 02:11:06,240 Nick and stuff like that, kind of. 2005 02:11:06,240 --> 02:11:10,360 But it's not a, again, it's not about Nick Puentes or Dave Smith 2006 02:11:10,360 --> 02:11:12,880 or Jordan Peterson or me or you or whoever. 2007 02:11:14,960 --> 02:11:18,360 It's a natural. It's a natural thing when you're 2008 02:11:18,360 --> 02:11:20,160 of the world or you're being worldly. 2009 02:11:20,440 --> 02:11:24,840 To choose the. Things that give you pleasure to 2010 02:11:24,840 --> 02:11:30,760 feel good and when you start encountering let's say you start 2011 02:11:30,760 --> 02:11:34,680 to change your life and lean into suffering. 2012 02:11:36,360 --> 02:11:38,040 Well, it gets very uncomfortable, not just for you 2013 02:11:38,040 --> 02:11:42,840 but for people around you. I wonder why you're different 2014 02:11:42,840 --> 02:11:48,760 now, why you know, why are you being people start thinking 2015 02:11:48,760 --> 02:11:50,600 you're being judgmental and you. Haven't even said anything. 2016 02:11:51,920 --> 02:11:53,800 Because your life is not reflective of their life. 2017 02:11:53,800 --> 02:11:56,600 And so they feel like you're calling them out some way. 2018 02:12:01,480 --> 02:12:06,040 And in a sense you are. The closer to reality you are 2019 02:12:06,040 --> 02:12:09,280 and the more you begin to live reality in any way, shape or 2020 02:12:09,280 --> 02:12:11,200 form. And look, I'm baby toe in, 2021 02:12:11,400 --> 02:12:12,960 right? I'm not even in the waiting 2022 02:12:12,960 --> 02:12:16,440 pool. So this is not a prideful thing. 2023 02:12:17,680 --> 02:12:20,880 I'm just starting to experience a little bit of it and it's 2024 02:12:20,920 --> 02:12:25,440 really hard. It's really hard. 2025 02:12:25,640 --> 02:12:29,720 It's demanding to maintain certain relationships as you're 2026 02:12:29,720 --> 02:12:35,280 going through this change, to maintain love, respect, 2027 02:12:35,280 --> 02:12:42,480 humility, to not become prideful or angry or depressed and fall 2028 02:12:42,480 --> 02:12:47,600 into despair. Very, very difficult. 2029 02:12:49,680 --> 02:12:53,880 Easy it is for me. And so you start to encounter 2030 02:12:53,880 --> 02:13:03,400 this in the world, your life. That's where that precipice 2031 02:13:03,400 --> 02:13:08,160 happens, right? It's easier to not, it's easier 2032 02:13:08,160 --> 02:13:10,440 not to do it. Give up. 2033 02:13:12,360 --> 02:13:16,320 Stop going to church, stop doing the show, stop talking, you 2034 02:13:16,320 --> 02:13:20,560 know, talk about fun stuff. Talk about stuff that everyone 2035 02:13:20,560 --> 02:13:22,880 you know, talk about stuff that everyone's going to agree on. 2036 02:13:25,880 --> 02:13:29,320 Make some apologies and get back in with certain groups and it'd 2037 02:13:29,320 --> 02:13:36,880 be fine, easier. But it's not true or it's not 2038 02:13:36,880 --> 02:13:39,920 true for you. For me, speak personally, it's 2039 02:13:39,920 --> 02:13:41,520 not what I feel like I'm being called for. 2040 02:13:41,520 --> 02:13:43,360 It's not what I feel is right. It's not. 2041 02:13:43,720 --> 02:13:53,360 It's not there, so we continue. And does that mean putting it 2042 02:13:53,360 --> 02:13:56,640 all on the altar and sacrifice all of it? 2043 02:13:57,400 --> 02:14:02,120 Yeah, all of it. All of the things that I was, 2044 02:14:02,480 --> 02:14:06,240 all the things that I am, all the things that I will be, must 2045 02:14:06,240 --> 02:14:12,360 be there on the altar constantly placed in the hands of God that 2046 02:14:12,360 --> 02:14:15,320 it's not. I'm not taking authority even of 2047 02:14:15,320 --> 02:14:19,840 my own life to a certain degree now I must act. 2048 02:14:20,840 --> 02:14:22,640 I must have, I must be responsible. 2049 02:14:22,880 --> 02:14:27,920 I must have discernment. I must maintain the category of 2050 02:14:28,160 --> 02:14:31,400 father, husband, man. I must try to find ways to 2051 02:14:31,400 --> 02:14:37,600 redeem myself or this category that I'm occupying by returning 2052 02:14:37,600 --> 02:14:45,840 and repenting, rebuilding. But in many cases, you're in a 2053 02:14:45,840 --> 02:14:50,240 state of collapse, civilizations in a state of collapse. 2054 02:14:50,240 --> 02:14:53,800 That which we were depending on, that we thought was true and 2055 02:14:53,800 --> 02:14:57,400 real and good, beautiful and true, turned out to be a lie. 2056 02:14:59,640 --> 02:15:02,680 Not as good, beautiful and true as we thought it was. 2057 02:15:03,000 --> 02:15:10,640 Or we've watched silently as these things have been inverted, 2058 02:15:11,400 --> 02:15:17,640 made ugly, falsified and we're bearing witness to it. 2059 02:15:20,960 --> 02:15:25,560 So we've bared false witness, we're bearing witness to a 2060 02:15:25,560 --> 02:15:29,000 falsehood and said nothing. You don't want to upend anything 2061 02:15:31,000 --> 02:15:33,760 and it doesn't mean that. So you having to pick fights and 2062 02:15:33,760 --> 02:15:36,720 to get into arguments. But we're not even saying these 2063 02:15:36,720 --> 02:15:38,760 things to ourselves or we're saying these things quietly in 2064 02:15:38,760 --> 02:15:41,360 the our little corners. We all prove them. 2065 02:15:41,360 --> 02:15:42,200 Yes, yes, yes. You are. 2066 02:15:42,200 --> 02:15:42,920 Right, Right, Right. Right. 2067 02:15:43,720 --> 02:15:46,480 But what is it doing? What are you doing? 2068 02:15:48,520 --> 02:15:49,800 I had to ask myself that question. 2069 02:15:49,800 --> 02:15:51,840 I asked myself that question all the time. 2070 02:15:52,280 --> 02:15:53,760 What is this for? Why? 2071 02:15:54,600 --> 02:15:56,600 What is the entailment? What does this lead to? 2072 02:15:58,080 --> 02:15:59,560 Why are you doing this? Mayor and Chuck? 2073 02:16:01,000 --> 02:16:14,560 Why? And the only comfort I get, it's 2074 02:16:14,560 --> 02:16:17,040 a cold comfort up there on the cross. 2075 02:16:18,920 --> 02:16:23,160 It's a nice view though. And that's kind of what if you 2076 02:16:23,160 --> 02:16:27,560 get afforded? I don't know if it leads to a 2077 02:16:27,560 --> 02:16:35,320 better world So too, but it does lead to a greater a better 2078 02:16:35,320 --> 02:16:41,600 context, to a greater peace, to more acceptance, to greater 2079 02:16:41,600 --> 02:16:48,000 humility. To think that. 48 years of age, 2080 02:16:50,480 --> 02:16:53,400 I've had various things ripped from me. 2081 02:16:56,440 --> 02:17:00,879 I can blame COVID, lockdowns, governance, this that I can 2082 02:17:00,879 --> 02:17:02,120 blame. I can blame everything. 2083 02:17:02,120 --> 02:17:04,879 I can blame the world itself. I can blame all the false. 2084 02:17:04,879 --> 02:17:08,240 Authorities, I can blame the, you know, the rulers of this 2085 02:17:08,240 --> 02:17:12,639 world, I can blame them all. It doesn't get me anywhere, 2086 02:17:13,600 --> 02:17:17,040 doesn't achieve anything. I can't build from blame. 2087 02:17:17,559 --> 02:17:27,959 It makes poor stones ultimately. But I guess I'll tell you here. 2088 02:17:28,680 --> 02:17:32,160 TLDR Ultimately who rules the world? 2089 02:17:37,600 --> 02:17:39,000 Satan, right? Easy. 2090 02:17:40,040 --> 02:17:42,840 But he doesn't rule either. The Prince of this world doesn't 2091 02:17:42,840 --> 02:17:46,000 rule it. He can rule the passions. 2092 02:17:46,000 --> 02:17:49,280 He can play upon our passions. He can manipulate us, you know, 2093 02:17:49,360 --> 02:17:52,040 make suggestions we fall prey to. 2094 02:17:54,799 --> 02:17:57,879 Only God really rules only God. There's only one king of kings. 2095 02:17:57,879 --> 02:18:07,860 There's only one Lord. But in order to accept that 2096 02:18:07,860 --> 02:18:12,200 fully and completely, you have to give up everything else or be 2097 02:18:12,200 --> 02:18:19,200 willing to on a moment's notice. I've said before privately and I 2098 02:18:19,200 --> 02:18:22,000 think publicly, this is God's show. 2099 02:18:23,160 --> 02:18:26,840 I've given it to God and I'll sit there and fret, you know, 2100 02:18:26,840 --> 02:18:27,959 look at the numbers and the analytics. 2101 02:18:28,000 --> 02:18:29,200 Oh, why isn't? It getting better they. 2102 02:18:29,240 --> 02:18:36,480 Need to make more money. And I've become a beggar, you 2103 02:18:36,480 --> 02:18:39,440 know? And there's a humility there 2104 02:18:39,440 --> 02:18:43,200 too. And my back's still out, my feet 2105 02:18:43,200 --> 02:18:47,040 still hurt. Applying to work, can't get, 2106 02:18:47,280 --> 02:18:56,480 can't get another job screwed. But yet I have church this 2107 02:18:56,480 --> 02:19:03,160 Sunday and I have people to talk to and I have this, whatever 2108 02:19:03,160 --> 02:19:06,719 this is, this humble of an offering, it is to the world and 2109 02:19:06,719 --> 02:19:08,639 this date of the world, here it is. 2110 02:19:11,719 --> 02:19:19,680 It's a testament of some sort. So we can think of who rules the 2111 02:19:19,680 --> 02:19:22,280 world and we'll still get to the cultism stuff. 2112 02:19:25,680 --> 02:19:28,280 But in some ways it doesn't really matter, does it? 2113 02:19:29,440 --> 02:19:31,280 What are they ruling? What are they ruling over? 2114 02:19:32,959 --> 02:19:41,320 Time, place, all things die. Everyone has an expiration date. 2115 02:19:41,639 --> 02:19:43,559 It's the most evil, wicked person in the world. 2116 02:19:43,959 --> 02:19:45,639 It's not going to be around forever. 2117 02:19:47,240 --> 02:19:50,560 The effects of them might be around long after they're gone, 2118 02:19:54,360 --> 02:19:56,440 but they themselves won't be there. 2119 02:19:57,720 --> 02:20:00,200 They're free, you know? History will do what it does to 2120 02:20:00,200 --> 02:20:03,440 the people. Quite often the result is not 2121 02:20:03,440 --> 02:20:07,040 good. Dabble too much in the occult, 2122 02:20:07,680 --> 02:20:10,960 went to dark places, and oftentimes you start to look 2123 02:20:11,200 --> 02:20:13,640 like the end result of those dark places. 2124 02:20:14,120 --> 02:20:23,760 It's corrupting, which is the layup to Tucker Carlson. 2125 02:20:25,080 --> 02:20:28,760 Tucker Carlson just sat down with what's this guy's name? 2126 02:20:32,240 --> 02:20:33,920 I don't quite remember. His name doesn't really matter. 2127 02:20:34,360 --> 02:20:38,080 This he looks like Opie Conrad Flynn is his name. 2128 02:20:38,080 --> 02:20:40,360 There you go. Conrad Flynn was just recently 2129 02:20:40,360 --> 02:20:43,560 on Tucker Carlson talking about occultism. 2130 02:20:43,880 --> 02:20:45,400 Now, you've been paying attention to this show and 2131 02:20:45,400 --> 02:20:47,640 you've been a follower of mine of any kind. 2132 02:20:47,640 --> 02:20:49,560 You know, I've been talking about this for quite a bit too. 2133 02:20:49,560 --> 02:20:56,280 I'm not taking any a credation, let's say, although someone 2134 02:20:56,280 --> 02:20:59,680 reached out to me and said that in, in this talk, Tucker 2135 02:20:59,680 --> 02:21:02,160 mentions that, you know, liberalism is luciferianism or 2136 02:21:02,240 --> 02:21:07,360 something along those lines. I'm like, maybe, well, no, I've 2137 02:21:07,360 --> 02:21:10,680 said it before folks, and we'll see whatever happens that we 2138 02:21:10,680 --> 02:21:14,200 know we win when Tucker Carlson says eventual son, that's like, 2139 02:21:14,440 --> 02:21:20,000 ah, at least we've achieved connection of some sort. 2140 02:21:20,000 --> 02:21:23,480 It's percolated up and that's all we can ever hope for. 2141 02:21:23,480 --> 02:21:25,240 Is to have the. People with the big giant 2142 02:21:25,240 --> 02:21:27,760 audiences say the things that I've been saying, but you know, 2143 02:21:27,800 --> 02:21:30,600 no one pays attention to. That's OK because it's not about 2144 02:21:30,600 --> 02:21:33,200 me. It's about the general ideas, 2145 02:21:33,280 --> 02:21:36,080 the concepts getting out there and hopefully doing some good. 2146 02:21:36,320 --> 02:21:43,480 So let's listen to this is this is a clip from the from the full 2147 02:21:43,480 --> 02:21:45,760 podcast. I should take a listen to it. 2148 02:21:45,760 --> 02:21:47,320 It's an interesting, interesting listen. 2149 02:21:48,000 --> 02:21:50,600 The clip is every tech billionaire is having the same 2150 02:21:50,600 --> 02:21:53,520 haunting vision. A demonologist explains why. 2151 02:21:53,520 --> 02:21:55,360 I'm going to play a little bit of this. 2152 02:21:55,360 --> 02:21:58,200 I'll be right back, but with a lot of these guys, What was 2153 02:21:58,200 --> 02:22:01,600 interesting about Nick Land is that there's a they keep getting 2154 02:22:01,600 --> 02:22:04,160 the same ideas, these guys. Take drugs, whether it's Elon, 2155 02:22:04,400 --> 02:22:07,400 Nick Land or even in the 70's, the scientist John C Lilly. 2156 02:22:07,680 --> 02:22:09,960 John C Lilly was an eminent scientist, brilliant dude. 2157 02:22:09,960 --> 02:22:12,360 He started doing ketamine the same the same drug. 2158 02:22:12,360 --> 02:22:15,120 You know everyone lives in Silicon Valley and they when 2159 02:22:15,120 --> 02:22:18,600 they do this drug and even if you're a atheist materialist, 2160 02:22:18,600 --> 02:22:20,960 this is still interesting. They all get the same idea, 2161 02:22:21,160 --> 02:22:23,880 which is that the the machines are, you know, coming. 2162 02:22:23,880 --> 02:22:26,160 It's like Skynet and Terminator, they're coming together. 2163 02:22:26,440 --> 02:22:30,320 They're they're evolving to eventually take over and that we 2164 02:22:30,320 --> 02:22:33,720 are hanging ourselves with the rope we're currently building by 2165 02:22:33,720 --> 02:22:35,440 building this. But this goes back. 2166 02:22:35,920 --> 02:22:38,240 Nick Land was interesting, but he became less interesting to me 2167 02:22:38,240 --> 02:22:41,640 when I realized that other scientists in the 70s, John C 2168 02:22:41,640 --> 02:22:45,120 Lilly, the movie Altered States from 1980s horror movie. 2169 02:22:45,720 --> 02:22:48,440 This is about, you know, you know, he would have these 2170 02:22:48,440 --> 02:22:50,680 visions about the machines. He called them the solid-state 2171 02:22:50,680 --> 02:22:53,400 entities. He he would have this in the 2172 02:22:53,400 --> 02:22:58,000 70s, Tucker in this in this tank, the isolation tank, you go 2173 02:22:58,000 --> 02:23:00,720 in the new, you haven't seen it, but the new Mission Impossible 2174 02:23:00,720 --> 02:23:04,160 movie, Tom Cruise, you know, he fights this AI and he goes in 2175 02:23:04,160 --> 02:23:06,320 the isolation tank and he has these visions of it. 2176 02:23:06,440 --> 02:23:10,760 One of the biggest movies of this past summer and that that 2177 02:23:10,760 --> 02:23:14,040 plot point comes from John C Lilly and the visions he would 2178 02:23:14,040 --> 02:23:18,920 get of AI apocalypse in the isolation tank back in the 70s. 2179 02:23:19,120 --> 02:23:23,000 So I bring this up to say Nick Land is the most foremost 2180 02:23:23,160 --> 02:23:25,280 proponent of it that has a public name, even though he's 2181 02:23:25,280 --> 02:23:28,600 not that famous right now. But this goes back a long time, 2182 02:23:29,640 --> 02:23:30,920 you know, at least back to the 70s. 2183 02:23:31,400 --> 02:23:36,280 So are these so people take ketamine and they all have the 2184 02:23:36,280 --> 02:23:39,280 same vision? I mean, or species of nothing 2185 02:23:39,400 --> 02:23:42,280 enough of them do to make it very strange and alarming that I 2186 02:23:42,360 --> 02:23:44,600 mean, I mean that that's the. Thing that one of the main 2187 02:23:44,600 --> 02:23:47,800 influences on both the show I was building these guys Brian 2188 02:23:47,800 --> 02:23:49,720 guys and William S Burroughs, his creative partner. 2189 02:23:49,920 --> 02:23:52,120 He would say The thing is about getting high and about doing 2190 02:23:52,120 --> 02:23:55,520 psychedelics is that you know you can spot people you know 2191 02:23:55,520 --> 02:23:57,520 eventually who are on the same drug and you're both getting the 2192 02:23:57,520 --> 02:23:58,960 same ideas. Some some drugs. 2193 02:23:58,960 --> 02:24:00,800 He said, you know increases telepathy. 2194 02:24:00,800 --> 02:24:04,240 You know people are it puts on the same same wavelength. 2195 02:24:04,800 --> 02:24:07,920 So with a lot of these, it's a little weird that different. 2196 02:24:07,920 --> 02:24:09,480 People from a little. Weird. 2197 02:24:09,480 --> 02:24:11,040 This is a little weird, isn't it? 2198 02:24:11,640 --> 02:24:14,200 This is. If you watched the last week's 2199 02:24:14,200 --> 02:24:17,840 show talking about dinosaurs and UFOs for 8 year olds, this is 2200 02:24:17,840 --> 02:24:21,680 the problem of, of nominalism, materialism. 2201 02:24:21,800 --> 02:24:25,320 And you hear, you know, evolutionary proponents talk 2202 02:24:25,320 --> 02:24:28,120 about this all the time where, you know, the brain, the mind, 2203 02:24:29,160 --> 02:24:30,560 the mind is just part of the brain. 2204 02:24:30,560 --> 02:24:36,040 It's, it's a, a result of this biochemical process in the in, 2205 02:24:36,040 --> 02:24:39,040 in this mind, in this brain we have that we create thoughts in 2206 02:24:39,040 --> 02:24:40,800 the mind and the reality and all this stuff. 2207 02:24:40,800 --> 02:24:44,880 And our processes are just, you know, the results of 2208 02:24:44,880 --> 02:24:50,480 neurochemical reactions, which is OK, if you're going to hold 2209 02:24:50,480 --> 02:24:53,800 that position, which is a heck of a position, but then you're 2210 02:24:53,800 --> 02:24:56,760 left with the fact that then you're bringing it down to a 2211 02:24:56,760 --> 02:24:58,560 mechanism. Well, mechanisms can be 2212 02:24:58,560 --> 02:25:00,600 calculated. Mechanisms can be observed, and 2213 02:25:00,600 --> 02:25:04,160 they can be quantified. They can be measured. 2214 02:25:04,720 --> 02:25:06,960 And if you're going to start doing that, then you have to 2215 02:25:06,960 --> 02:25:10,120 start understand that that thoughts themselves, if they're 2216 02:25:10,120 --> 02:25:13,120 just this biochemical process, break physics. 2217 02:25:14,960 --> 02:25:18,000 Oops. Dang. 2218 02:25:19,320 --> 02:25:20,920 Damn. Yeah. 2219 02:25:20,920 --> 02:25:24,160 How to do that? Well, coincidentally. 2220 02:25:24,880 --> 02:25:28,680 If you you. Try to track a thought or the 2221 02:25:28,880 --> 02:25:32,280 the speed of a thought is essentially instantaneous. 2222 02:25:33,880 --> 02:25:36,840 It does a whole bunch of things all at once. 2223 02:25:39,000 --> 02:25:41,800 We can't observe anything else in the natural world doing that 2224 02:25:41,800 --> 02:25:47,720 in that sense, because this isn't just like a, a chemical 2225 02:25:47,720 --> 02:25:51,240 process that creates a photon or a light beam or something. 2226 02:25:51,240 --> 02:25:53,760 No, no, no. Imagine what you're doing, your 2227 02:25:53,760 --> 02:25:56,560 what your brain is doing. Just for me to talk on the show, 2228 02:25:56,560 --> 02:26:00,120 all the little things that I have to fire off in perfect 2229 02:26:00,120 --> 02:26:04,080 sequence for me to make a word that you can understand 2230 02:26:05,320 --> 02:26:07,280 continuously. I don't know where these 2231 02:26:07,280 --> 02:26:09,240 thoughts are coming from. I didn't write this down. 2232 02:26:09,240 --> 02:26:12,240 This is not scripted. But even if it was, I'd have to 2233 02:26:12,240 --> 02:26:14,440 think the words and write them down and and then recite off the 2234 02:26:14,440 --> 02:26:18,440 paper. There's a lot going on there for 2235 02:26:18,440 --> 02:26:22,000 one little organ to do instantaneously. 2236 02:26:22,400 --> 02:26:25,960 And you know, as perfectly as I can pull off. 2237 02:26:27,320 --> 02:26:32,720 Yeah, oops, not mention that. But when we started getting into 2238 02:26:32,720 --> 02:26:36,880 the into the into the weirder stuff like Telestopy, like 2239 02:26:37,120 --> 02:26:41,400 people having the same thoughts, if it's all a big experience 2240 02:26:41,400 --> 02:26:47,160 from the mind independent of each other, how is my brain 2241 02:26:47,160 --> 02:26:51,040 chemistry and your brain chemistry syncing up without 2242 02:26:51,120 --> 02:26:53,120 some sort of and we're not even talking. 2243 02:26:53,120 --> 02:26:55,040 Like I see a tree. You see a tree. 2244 02:26:55,040 --> 02:26:56,400 We both talk. About the tree. 2245 02:26:57,040 --> 02:27:01,680 We're talking like independent thoughts that are being produced 2246 02:27:01,680 --> 02:27:05,800 by, let's say a drug or something else, which you'd 2247 02:27:05,800 --> 02:27:09,400 think if it's just acting on your mind and your biochemistry 2248 02:27:09,920 --> 02:27:13,040 that would produce particulars that are particular to you, 2249 02:27:13,440 --> 02:27:16,240 experiences that are independent of everyone else. 2250 02:27:16,240 --> 02:27:19,360 You're going to see your visions that are that are visions of 2251 02:27:19,360 --> 02:27:22,560 Jason. Because I took ayahuasca and saw 2252 02:27:22,560 --> 02:27:26,440 the things, right? One drug I didn't do actually 2253 02:27:26,440 --> 02:27:30,240 was ayahuasca, thank God, but I did a lot of acid. 2254 02:27:30,520 --> 02:27:35,520 At one point. LSD So I saw some saw some 2255 02:27:35,520 --> 02:27:39,880 stuff, unfortunately, open my open the my spiritual portal, 2256 02:27:40,200 --> 02:27:42,160 which probably didn't didn't help me none. 2257 02:27:45,000 --> 02:27:46,560 But people experience the same things. 2258 02:27:46,560 --> 02:27:49,800 They see the same elves, they see the same demons. 2259 02:27:50,560 --> 02:27:52,240 So we talk about who rules this world. 2260 02:27:52,240 --> 02:27:56,720 Well, whether and here's I'll throw this bone to the 2261 02:27:56,720 --> 02:27:58,800 secularists out there who don't believe any of this is true. 2262 02:27:58,800 --> 02:28:01,880 And I think they get to this in the clip is that even if you 2263 02:28:01,880 --> 02:28:04,840 don't believe any of this is true, the problem is that people 2264 02:28:04,840 --> 02:28:09,160 there are people who do think this is true and they hold very 2265 02:28:09,160 --> 02:28:11,760 powerful positions. They're not naming names here, 2266 02:28:11,760 --> 02:28:14,600 but you could easily think that probably Peter Thiel, Elon Musk 2267 02:28:14,600 --> 02:28:16,760 and a whole bunch of other people are in this group are 2268 02:28:16,760 --> 02:28:18,280 being influenced by these people. 2269 02:28:18,560 --> 02:28:22,680 A lot of these people have read Nick Land, I've read Nicklan. 2270 02:28:22,680 --> 02:28:24,480 A lot of other people have read Nicklan. 2271 02:28:24,560 --> 02:28:28,960 Aaron McIntyre just did a sit down with Landon Dugan, which 2272 02:28:28,960 --> 02:28:36,200 I've been told to check out. We know what, what, what is this 2273 02:28:36,200 --> 02:28:38,720 connection? Why are people so interested in 2274 02:28:38,720 --> 02:28:42,800 these things? Because there's this, this 2275 02:28:43,200 --> 02:28:49,440 promise of truth, occult, Kabbalah, magic spells that will 2276 02:28:49,440 --> 02:28:53,880 reveal all to you, will give you special abilities, will make you 2277 02:28:53,880 --> 02:29:02,610 into this sort of divine God, God like being, promise the 2278 02:29:02,610 --> 02:29:13,650 apple power in this world, control in this world, material 2279 02:29:14,330 --> 02:29:18,530 wealth, ease of the flesh in this world. 2280 02:29:20,280 --> 02:29:21,720 It all requires is your soul right? 2281 02:29:24,000 --> 02:29:25,960 Different places, different. Countries. 2282 02:29:26,320 --> 02:29:29,640 Different life experiences would take a drug and have the same 2283 02:29:29,640 --> 02:29:32,440 kind of vision. And for anyone who, who's that, 2284 02:29:32,440 --> 02:29:35,040 that can't be organic. No, no, no, Don says. 2285 02:29:35,040 --> 02:29:37,960 My youngest son, he's 28 now. And I still have the same 2286 02:29:37,960 --> 02:29:42,160 dreams, two or three. Times a year, yeah, explain that 2287 02:29:42,160 --> 02:29:44,760 one through just. It's a biochemical process from 2288 02:29:44,760 --> 02:29:49,760 of the brain and and and but that that is weird beyond what 2289 02:29:49,760 --> 02:29:51,320 anyone's individual personal beliefs are. 2290 02:29:51,320 --> 02:29:53,600 So exactly that that's yeah. So if anyone turns in. 2291 02:29:53,600 --> 02:29:55,400 And they're like, where did Tucker find this guy that looks 2292 02:29:55,400 --> 02:29:59,000 like Greg Olson talking about insane AI stuff? 2293 02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:01,480 If they're an atheist, they don't believe any of this. 2294 02:30:01,480 --> 02:30:04,240 Like you're saying the fact that people are taking these drugs 2295 02:30:04,240 --> 02:30:06,600 and they're very powerful and they work in tech and they are 2296 02:30:06,600 --> 02:30:09,040 getting the same ideas, the same fears. 2297 02:30:09,040 --> 02:30:10,840 They think that in some cases they're talking to the same 2298 02:30:10,840 --> 02:30:12,960 entities. There are books now about if you 2299 02:30:12,960 --> 02:30:16,840 take DMT, if you encounter this, this machine elf, be wary of 2300 02:30:16,840 --> 02:30:18,280 this. You know they're encountering 2301 02:30:18,280 --> 02:30:20,560 the same stuff. That's that's an interesting 2302 02:30:20,680 --> 02:30:23,200 phenomenon. Just biologically, regardless of 2303 02:30:23,200 --> 02:30:26,240 what people like, ancient sacred art has the same images created 2304 02:30:26,240 --> 02:30:28,160 on different continents at different periods. 2305 02:30:28,160 --> 02:30:29,760 They couldn't have had contact with each other. 2306 02:30:29,760 --> 02:30:33,680 So why did why are they drawing the same Birdman or the same 2307 02:30:33,680 --> 02:30:37,320 purse like it? Because they're seeing the same 2308 02:30:37,320 --> 02:30:40,040 visions, which suggests that those visions are real. 2309 02:30:40,320 --> 02:30:40,760 Why? Why? 2310 02:30:41,120 --> 02:30:43,280 And they're always, always tied to some sort of materialistic 2311 02:30:43,720 --> 02:30:45,640 aspect. Jason Stapleton. 2312 02:30:46,480 --> 02:30:48,200 You know, made a lot of hay. About talking about wealth 2313 02:30:48,200 --> 02:30:51,760 powered influence, you know, these three things, these three 2314 02:30:51,760 --> 02:30:54,600 tenants that if you have all three, you can really do things 2315 02:30:54,600 --> 02:30:57,080 in this world. And he's not wrong. 2316 02:30:57,800 --> 02:31:00,360 You know, if you have wealth, power and influence personally, 2317 02:31:00,360 --> 02:31:03,440 you can get invited to certain places, you can get 2318 02:31:03,440 --> 02:31:05,360 representative, you can get on these shows. 2319 02:31:05,360 --> 02:31:08,480 You can do a lot of things with with with with with wealth 2320 02:31:08,480 --> 02:31:10,960 powered influence their currency on 2 of themselves. 2321 02:31:11,920 --> 02:31:14,840 The influence part is the interesting thing, because 2322 02:31:15,080 --> 02:31:17,200 obviously we talk about influencers, right, 2323 02:31:17,200 --> 02:31:20,160 personalities that are on shows, Tucker Carlson, all these other 2324 02:31:20,160 --> 02:31:22,880 people, media people proclaiming these things, having these 2325 02:31:22,880 --> 02:31:24,280 people on and talk about this thing. 2326 02:31:24,280 --> 02:31:27,160 And it's it's going to influence the way you think, the way you 2327 02:31:27,160 --> 02:31:29,520 see the world, the way you react to certain things. 2328 02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:33,480 Your language, your lexicon, your, your, your spiritual 2329 02:31:33,480 --> 02:31:35,440 vocabulary is going to is going to alter. 2330 02:31:35,760 --> 02:31:39,680 OK. And be that as it may, good bad, 2331 02:31:39,680 --> 02:31:43,560 the other right, the question really is, is who's influencing 2332 02:31:43,560 --> 02:31:47,000 the influencer? Who rules the ruler? 2333 02:31:48,320 --> 02:31:50,160 Getting back to who rules this world. 2334 02:31:51,400 --> 02:31:54,840 And we'll just talk about the material world, not the 2335 02:31:54,840 --> 02:31:58,120 spiritual, not the the world, the world being the passions, 2336 02:31:58,120 --> 02:32:02,160 but the world pertaining to us. When I say the world, you 2337 02:32:02,800 --> 02:32:05,960 conjure this, the globe, who rules it? 2338 02:32:07,960 --> 02:32:10,240 Was it just the elites? Elites have expiry dates. 2339 02:32:10,240 --> 02:32:15,520 They come, they go, some before the time, some long after their 2340 02:32:15,520 --> 02:32:19,880 expired date should have ended. Arguably, certainly, their 2341 02:32:19,880 --> 02:32:22,360 influence in the world can be carried out through generations. 2342 02:32:22,360 --> 02:32:24,320 We talk about Marx. We talk about ideological. 2343 02:32:24,320 --> 02:32:28,520 Figures. Philosophers, certain leaders, 2344 02:32:28,520 --> 02:32:30,640 have done things in the past that still carry over. 2345 02:32:30,640 --> 02:32:32,640 We're still in the reverberations of Charlemagne 2346 02:32:32,640 --> 02:32:36,800 and many others. So great was a man that his 2347 02:32:36,800 --> 02:32:39,520 effects reverberate through history, throughout you know, 2348 02:32:39,560 --> 02:32:43,480 and will continue on. They've altered our way of, of 2349 02:32:43,480 --> 02:32:53,800 perceiving, of what truth is, in what standards of beauty, but 2350 02:32:53,800 --> 02:32:57,080 who's influencing them? Who's controlling them? 2351 02:32:58,080 --> 02:33:03,120 Because often times what people will will default to if you 2352 02:33:03,120 --> 02:33:06,880 can't have a, if you can't have true authority, you know, 2353 02:33:07,040 --> 02:33:11,600 gained, earned through proper responsibility, humility, 2354 02:33:11,880 --> 02:33:14,760 discernment, all the rest of it, you'll take control. 2355 02:33:15,920 --> 02:33:18,040 And often times positions give you control. 2356 02:33:18,040 --> 02:33:23,000 The king gets to control things because he's the king or the 2357 02:33:23,000 --> 02:33:28,480 queen or the CEO, etcetera. But again, that's a temporary 2358 02:33:28,480 --> 02:33:32,520 position. Even a long lasting king is only 2359 02:33:32,520 --> 02:33:37,560 going to be there for so long. Eventually they fade out. 2360 02:33:39,720 --> 02:33:44,120 There's the classic quote. You know, look upon my works in 2361 02:33:44,120 --> 02:33:48,240 despair. Nice works have been destroyed. 2362 02:33:48,640 --> 02:33:50,400 Talk about civilizations have come and gone. 2363 02:33:50,400 --> 02:33:54,240 Rome, Byzantium. Babylon. 2364 02:33:55,440 --> 02:33:59,160 Whatever flavor fits your fancy, gone. 2365 02:34:01,960 --> 02:34:05,440 Dust. Soviet Union. 2366 02:34:07,560 --> 02:34:10,280 All the great evils still reverberating through. 2367 02:34:11,680 --> 02:34:13,920 We'll take generations to finally get rid of that. 2368 02:34:15,680 --> 02:34:20,360 But it doesn't exist anymore. No one you know, There's no 2369 02:34:20,360 --> 02:34:23,400 Soviet Union to point to. It's gone. 2370 02:34:24,560 --> 02:34:26,320 You'll be gone. All these other things we hold 2371 02:34:26,320 --> 02:34:29,800 on to so desperately. So we we give this great 2372 02:34:29,800 --> 02:34:34,640 authority to both in the positive and the negative, both 2373 02:34:34,640 --> 02:34:37,280 in the exultation and the criticism still grants. 2374 02:34:37,280 --> 02:34:39,480 Some authority we're still. Giving it power. 2375 02:34:43,000 --> 02:34:46,720 But that power is not forever. It can't be. 2376 02:34:50,480 --> 02:34:57,080 It's man made. So who influences the 2377 02:34:57,080 --> 02:35:00,360 influencer? Going back to Gerard, we know 2378 02:35:00,360 --> 02:35:03,640 that well. From Gerard's perspective, all 2379 02:35:03,640 --> 02:35:07,200 desires are external. We don't know what to want until 2380 02:35:07,200 --> 02:35:11,840 someone models that want. But then you get into infinite 2381 02:35:11,840 --> 02:35:14,080 regress. Who was the original desirer? 2382 02:35:15,480 --> 02:35:18,200 Where did the where did the first desire come from? 2383 02:35:19,880 --> 02:35:26,360 Prestige, power. Acknowledgement, pain. 2384 02:35:31,120 --> 02:35:35,520 Acknowledge me. Where does this desire come 2385 02:35:35,520 --> 02:35:38,520 from? Look, I you know from again from 2386 02:35:38,520 --> 02:35:39,680 the Christian. Frame, we say, well, it comes 2387 02:35:39,680 --> 02:35:42,080 from the fall, from the inversions. 2388 02:35:42,280 --> 02:35:45,920 The passions are the inversions of God's virtues, and we are 2389 02:35:45,920 --> 02:35:48,520 mired in the in the passions. There's the food of the pigs, 2390 02:35:48,760 --> 02:35:54,800 and we must choose to distance ourselves from it, to exalt and 2391 02:35:54,800 --> 02:36:00,080 chase after the virtues, to model those virtues, to be the 2392 02:36:00,080 --> 02:36:04,960 prodigal son. But we've been LED astray, or 2393 02:36:04,960 --> 02:36:11,200 LED ourselves astray in many cases, a snake. 2394 02:36:11,320 --> 02:36:15,640 But just to finish that thought. But to go along in your life, 2395 02:36:16,360 --> 02:36:19,640 religious or not, whatever frame you occupy, to go along with 2396 02:36:19,640 --> 02:36:21,880 your life and think that these things aren't going to affect 2397 02:36:21,880 --> 02:36:26,880 you is folly. Because there's big, you know, 2398 02:36:26,920 --> 02:36:30,000 people with well powered influence who believe this 2399 02:36:30,000 --> 02:36:32,320 stuff, who really, really believe it. 2400 02:36:33,360 --> 02:36:36,080 And either they're practicing it or they're reacting against it, 2401 02:36:36,360 --> 02:36:38,920 whichever way you look at it. I mean, it puts Peter Thiel's 2402 02:36:39,400 --> 02:36:42,320 obsession about the Antichrist into into interesting 2403 02:36:43,320 --> 02:36:47,080 perspective, doesn't it? Why is Peter so obsessed by it? 2404 02:36:48,120 --> 02:36:50,680 Well, maybe in this world that he lives in that he's, you know, 2405 02:36:50,680 --> 02:36:55,480 part of maybe he just sees evidence of the Antichrist 2406 02:36:55,480 --> 02:37:00,360 everywhere. Now, doesn't mean that Peter 2407 02:37:00,360 --> 02:37:02,680 Thiel's doing the right thing or that he's a good guy or that he 2408 02:37:02,680 --> 02:37:07,440 should be given authority, but he's certainly someone we should 2409 02:37:07,440 --> 02:37:10,480 be paying attention to. And if he's talking about the 2410 02:37:10,480 --> 02:37:13,640 Antichrist all the time and is very deeply concerned, and, you 2411 02:37:13,640 --> 02:37:17,040 know, if all these people are talking this way but yet 2412 02:37:17,040 --> 02:37:20,600 pursuing different means, as Buck Johnson says, actions are 2413 02:37:21,000 --> 02:37:24,640 what we have to ultimately judge or really pay attention to. 2414 02:37:25,360 --> 02:37:28,240 So, you know, Elon Musk is talking about how dangerous and 2415 02:37:28,240 --> 02:37:33,640 demonic and potentially evil AI is, but he's developing AI. 2416 02:37:37,240 --> 02:37:42,080 It's an interesting contradiction, and I think the 2417 02:37:42,080 --> 02:37:45,760 contradiction is born out of one, this liberal frame and two, 2418 02:37:45,800 --> 02:37:50,480 out of this pride we all fall prey to great clip about that. 2419 02:37:54,280 --> 02:37:59,480 But that pride is this idea that yes, this is dangerous and and, 2420 02:37:59,480 --> 02:38:00,960 and very, very dangerous. It's a gun. 2421 02:38:00,960 --> 02:38:03,840 It's a loaded gun being welded by a by a toddler. 2422 02:38:04,080 --> 02:38:08,080 But if I have a gun, I'll know what to do with it. 2423 02:38:08,840 --> 02:38:14,040 Only I can wield this because I have the proper discernment. 2424 02:38:14,040 --> 02:38:17,400 I have the proper authority. Well, who's giving him this 2425 02:38:17,400 --> 02:38:23,000 authority? Who gave Elon Musk the authority 2426 02:38:23,280 --> 02:38:27,720 over how AI should be used? Or Peter Thiel or whomever? 2427 02:38:29,840 --> 02:38:32,920 Who, me, You. Who voted for this? 2428 02:38:35,760 --> 02:38:37,000 No one. Oops. 2429 02:38:38,480 --> 02:38:42,440 Well, there's a problem. Worship universal around the 2430 02:38:42,440 --> 02:38:43,520 world. Circle worship. 2431 02:38:45,280 --> 02:38:48,080 Exactly. Because, and one last thing 2432 02:38:48,080 --> 02:38:51,560 before we play more of the clip, This is why Civilization. 2433 02:38:51,560 --> 02:38:54,320 Has to have those three things. Ruler, easy, right? 2434 02:38:54,640 --> 02:38:56,640 Government, someone who's in charge. 2435 02:38:57,120 --> 02:38:58,760 Region. Even simpler. 2436 02:38:58,760 --> 02:39:02,520 You need have a border, a land, a people, a culture or history, 2437 02:39:02,880 --> 02:39:05,760 something that's holding us together where the civilization 2438 02:39:05,760 --> 02:39:08,200 is going to be the place on the map we point to and go, there's 2439 02:39:08,200 --> 02:39:10,520 Russia, there's America, there's a there's this place. 2440 02:39:12,560 --> 02:39:15,120 We understand where it is because it says so on the map. 2441 02:39:15,120 --> 02:39:17,400 And the map has to have the borders and the ideas of what it 2442 02:39:17,400 --> 02:39:18,640 is and what it isn't. Right. 2443 02:39:18,640 --> 02:39:23,640 OK, The, the, the, the third pillar of, of civilization being 2444 02:39:23,640 --> 02:39:26,480 religion. I know many secularists are 2445 02:39:26,480 --> 02:39:30,160 going to balk at that. And I wouldn't even bother 2446 02:39:30,360 --> 02:39:36,280 voicing a complete defense, but realize that without it, people 2447 02:39:36,280 --> 02:39:38,480 are going to be influenced by other things. 2448 02:39:39,160 --> 02:39:41,920 So when we get down. To who should have authority? 2449 02:39:42,760 --> 02:39:47,480 How do we practice discernment? How do we know good from from 2450 02:39:47,560 --> 02:39:49,960 from wrong, righteousness, wickedness? 2451 02:39:51,280 --> 02:39:54,280 Where is this lever? Where is that we can get really, 2452 02:39:54,560 --> 02:39:57,720 really granular, but ultimately, where is it? 2453 02:39:57,720 --> 02:40:01,320 How do we make that discernment? How do we know? 2454 02:40:03,160 --> 02:40:10,360 But we need some mechanism and the atheist or the secularist 2455 02:40:11,120 --> 02:40:14,080 doesn't have it. They've just declared themselves 2456 02:40:14,080 --> 02:40:18,640 prey. And we can get go through all 2457 02:40:18,640 --> 02:40:20,280 the faiths and all the rest of it. 2458 02:40:20,280 --> 02:40:26,160 But regardless, any group of people who has a clear root 2459 02:40:26,160 --> 02:40:31,160 ruler or leadership and a religion is going to have the 2460 02:40:31,160 --> 02:40:34,120 mechanisms that that the the secularist does not. 2461 02:40:35,120 --> 02:40:39,200 You have tools and abilities the secularist does not that they 2462 02:40:39,200 --> 02:40:44,440 have taken off their own table because they say, ha ha, ha, it 2463 02:40:44,440 --> 02:40:46,160 doesn't really exist. It's like, well, it exists. 2464 02:40:46,160 --> 02:40:49,560 If people believe it and if they're acting with this thing 2465 02:40:49,560 --> 02:40:53,600 in their mind, whether you think it's real or not, or you think 2466 02:40:53,600 --> 02:40:57,360 it's a biochemical misfire, well, golly Gee, gosh, all these 2467 02:40:57,360 --> 02:40:58,920 people are acting as if it's real. 2468 02:40:58,920 --> 02:41:00,520 So you're going to live in that reality. 2469 02:41:01,120 --> 02:41:02,440 You're going to live in their frame. 2470 02:41:06,000 --> 02:41:07,560 Get it? Probably not. 2471 02:41:08,600 --> 02:41:12,760 Is there something that people are responding to that's not 2472 02:41:12,760 --> 02:41:13,960 coming from within them? But. 2473 02:41:14,000 --> 02:41:16,040 Outside of that that. Was Carl Jung's like main 2474 02:41:16,040 --> 02:41:20,560 insight is that is that you know getting the idea of of can 2475 02:41:20,560 --> 02:41:22,200 ideas. Come from without you and not 2476 02:41:22,200 --> 02:41:24,560 just within you. So yeah, well, yeah. 2477 02:41:24,560 --> 02:41:26,480 And the materialist doesn't want to admit that. 2478 02:41:26,480 --> 02:41:29,560 And our culture has, since we dropped the atom bomb, has sort 2479 02:41:29,560 --> 02:41:30,840 of written off the. Possibility. 2480 02:41:30,920 --> 02:41:34,240 Really, that that could be true, but it's just reconnecting with 2481 02:41:34,240 --> 02:41:36,320 something that every civilization has always assumed 2482 02:41:36,320 --> 02:41:38,520 was true, which is there's a spiritual realm that's every bit 2483 02:41:38,520 --> 02:41:40,480 as real as your iPhone or this desk. 2484 02:41:40,480 --> 02:41:42,280 And it's just, it's actually real and it acts on us all the 2485 02:41:42,280 --> 02:41:44,720 time. And, and that both ants as 2486 02:41:44,720 --> 02:41:46,560 secularists took themselves out of the game. 2487 02:41:46,560 --> 02:41:49,320 No, they're still in the game. I'll just push. 2488 02:41:49,320 --> 02:41:50,720 Back on that. They're still in the game. 2489 02:41:50,720 --> 02:41:52,440 What they've done is disarm themselves. 2490 02:41:52,760 --> 02:41:55,240 They're, it's like they're on a battlefield in the middle of a 2491 02:41:55,240 --> 02:41:58,800 war and they just dropped their weapon because it's like weapons 2492 02:41:58,800 --> 02:42:00,680 don't exist. These bullets aren't really 2493 02:42:00,680 --> 02:42:01,960 real. They're just figments of your 2494 02:42:01,960 --> 02:42:04,960 mind, right? It's the matrix. 2495 02:42:04,960 --> 02:42:07,400 You can stop the bullets with your mind because they're just, 2496 02:42:07,400 --> 02:42:09,120 it's all figments of your mind, man. 2497 02:42:09,440 --> 02:42:12,760 It's all just part of the simulation till you get shot in 2498 02:42:12,760 --> 02:42:19,080 the head. Oops, that is the truth. 2499 02:42:19,760 --> 02:42:22,960 And. I know, because ultimately I'll 2500 02:42:23,000 --> 02:42:25,520 tell you what I think. It doesn't matter what you 2501 02:42:25,680 --> 02:42:29,360 think, there is no spoon. Exactly. 2502 02:42:29,720 --> 02:42:32,040 You seem to take that for granted, but it's still 2503 02:42:32,040 --> 02:42:33,920 shocking. To those of us who grew up in, 2504 02:42:34,880 --> 02:42:39,280 you know, basically a, a godless country, it's totally, I mean, 2505 02:42:39,280 --> 02:42:41,640 one of the, the basis for my, my interest in a lot of this is, 2506 02:42:41,640 --> 02:42:43,920 you know, my mom was raised in a Christian home. 2507 02:42:43,920 --> 02:42:46,760 I consider me a Christian. Myself and my mom would always 2508 02:42:46,760 --> 02:42:49,400 say, you know, she became a Christian in the 70s and she but 2509 02:42:49,400 --> 02:42:52,720 she knew all the psychedelic groups back in the 60s, you 2510 02:42:52,760 --> 02:42:57,760 know, love spirit, you know, she amount Mormon. 2511 02:42:59,040 --> 02:43:00,480 I don't know that for sure, but I mean. 2512 02:43:06,680 --> 02:43:11,680 Probably go to the indoor shows and all those, you know, group 2513 02:43:11,960 --> 02:43:14,800 groups in the late 1960s and. Something that she'd say and, 2514 02:43:14,800 --> 02:43:17,840 and that people who are, you know, rock and rollers into the 2515 02:43:17,840 --> 02:43:20,920 occult would say that they both say the same thing, which is 2516 02:43:20,920 --> 02:43:24,800 that people take drugs, musicians do for inspiration, 2517 02:43:24,800 --> 02:43:27,160 for creativity, to tap themselves into the spiritual 2518 02:43:27,160 --> 02:43:29,760 realm to get to pull something from outside themselves. 2519 02:43:30,200 --> 02:43:32,440 So the basis for my interest in a lot of this stuff was like, 2520 02:43:32,680 --> 02:43:35,720 that's something my mom says. My mom's great Christian, one of 2521 02:43:35,720 --> 02:43:38,840 the all time greats. And this is something that, you 2522 02:43:38,840 --> 02:43:41,600 know, every musician knows too. That's why they take drugs is to 2523 02:43:41,640 --> 02:43:44,000 tap into the spiritual. So I didn't know that I thought 2524 02:43:44,000 --> 02:43:46,720 that people took drugs. I mean, I took drugs. 2525 02:43:47,160 --> 02:43:48,720 People take drugs for all kinds of, I'll admit it. 2526 02:43:48,840 --> 02:43:53,440 But I always assumed that those insights are really mostly fake. 2527 02:43:53,440 --> 02:43:56,680 Insights, but. All that stuff came from within 2528 02:43:56,680 --> 02:43:59,440 that it was, I mean, I bought the Freudian analysis of it that 2529 02:43:59,440 --> 02:44:02,280 there's, you only use 10% of your brain and there's this 2530 02:44:02,280 --> 02:44:08,200 whole sort of primordial C in your head of, of thoughts and 2531 02:44:08,880 --> 02:44:11,880 visions that you're not in touch with on a daily basis. 2532 02:44:11,880 --> 02:44:17,320 But that drugs, yeah. FF says Tucker loved his C cane 2533 02:44:17,720 --> 02:44:19,720 and, and weed, from what I heard. 2534 02:44:19,720 --> 02:44:22,120 Well, he's definitely got the C cane bloat. 2535 02:44:22,960 --> 02:44:27,800 That's, that typically happens, do a lot of it and it's screws 2536 02:44:27,800 --> 02:44:31,440 up your, your thyroid and endocrine, endocrine system. 2537 02:44:32,440 --> 02:44:38,480 And often times you get bloated. How would I know? 2538 02:44:38,480 --> 02:44:41,120 I don't know. Just suppose this is what I've 2539 02:44:41,120 --> 02:44:44,000 heard. And he's a heavy drinker. 2540 02:44:44,120 --> 02:44:46,720 Yeah. Well, you know, he's swam with 2541 02:44:46,720 --> 02:44:49,400 sharks for a very long time and had to probably. 2542 02:44:50,960 --> 02:44:52,920 Even if you don't know something's a lie, something 2543 02:44:52,920 --> 02:44:57,560 inside you do does, do's does and you're reacting to it. 2544 02:44:58,120 --> 02:45:00,400 I'll speak personally, like working in hospitality. 2545 02:45:00,840 --> 02:45:04,240 I worked in hospitality for, you know, whatever, almost 30 years, 2546 02:45:04,240 --> 02:45:09,000 right? And a lot of hospitality is 2547 02:45:09,000 --> 02:45:13,600 based on lies, manipulations, we'll put it that way. 2548 02:45:14,520 --> 02:45:19,840 You know, the homemade home cut fries aren't home cut. 2549 02:45:21,880 --> 02:45:25,920 Some cases aren't even fried. So then there's a whole bunch of 2550 02:45:25,920 --> 02:45:28,280 stuff you'd do with in hospitality that's, you know, 2551 02:45:29,320 --> 02:45:31,400 upselling and creative selling and all the rest of it. 2552 02:45:32,800 --> 02:45:34,760 It's creating an environment, creating an experience. 2553 02:45:35,240 --> 02:45:38,760 And to do that, often times if you're not out 100% deceitful, 2554 02:45:38,760 --> 02:45:45,720 you manipulate, move things around, you know, get the sale 2555 02:45:46,760 --> 02:45:49,840 sales important to get higher the bill, higher the bill, the 2556 02:45:49,840 --> 02:45:51,400 bigger the percentage of the tip, right? 2557 02:45:52,640 --> 02:45:53,960 And the more they, they like you. 2558 02:45:53,960 --> 02:45:58,480 And then you get, you know, they promote you, you get to deal 2559 02:45:58,480 --> 02:46:00,880 with more crud, you get to lie even more. 2560 02:46:00,880 --> 02:46:06,120 It's fantastic. But yeah, I, I don't think it's, 2561 02:46:06,960 --> 02:46:10,560 when you look at it from that frame, it's not a wonderment 2562 02:46:10,560 --> 02:46:13,120 that many people in the hospitality sector fall prey to 2563 02:46:13,520 --> 02:46:16,560 a lot of drugs and other activities because you're 2564 02:46:17,800 --> 02:46:20,000 speaking personally. It was like this distancing. 2565 02:46:20,520 --> 02:46:26,160 I didn't want to be me was, you know, because you get slimy and 2566 02:46:26,880 --> 02:46:28,520 even when you're trying to be honest and you're trying to be 2567 02:46:28,520 --> 02:46:30,960 authentic and you're trying to be a good person, it's very, 2568 02:46:30,960 --> 02:46:33,760 very difficult. And in fact, often times, and 2569 02:46:33,760 --> 02:46:37,200 I've, I know this from, again, my own experience, you know, 2570 02:46:37,200 --> 02:46:40,320 when you, when you start drawing a line and go a moral line in 2571 02:46:40,320 --> 02:46:42,320 the sand, like, yeah, I'm not doing that. 2572 02:46:42,680 --> 02:46:46,120 That's when they get rid of you. That's when you're, you know, 2573 02:46:46,280 --> 02:46:48,640 you're the general manager. And now you're not the general 2574 02:46:48,640 --> 02:46:56,360 manager anymore. Yeah, thin the membrane, but I 2575 02:46:56,360 --> 02:47:01,360 it never occurred to me a single time until middle age when I 2576 02:47:01,360 --> 02:47:04,280 started to see reality that actually they're coming from 2577 02:47:04,280 --> 02:47:06,280 outside you. Well, that and Tucker, that's a 2578 02:47:06,280 --> 02:47:07,520 great point. That's something that any 2579 02:47:07,520 --> 02:47:10,200 psychedelic guy, it's kind of a double, double standard thing, 2580 02:47:10,200 --> 02:47:12,480 ideal where when talking about. Drug use, they'll always say, 2581 02:47:12,480 --> 02:47:14,560 well, there's no difference between what's going on in my 2582 02:47:14,560 --> 02:47:16,440 head and what's going outside. It's we're all one. 2583 02:47:16,440 --> 02:47:18,760 That's always, you know, I think it was William James said, you 2584 02:47:18,760 --> 02:47:21,440 know, the great oceanic feeling. You know what he what he would. 2585 02:47:21,680 --> 02:47:23,600 But that's their that's always their big insight is hey, man, 2586 02:47:23,600 --> 02:47:25,760 what's going on in my head isn't different from what's going 2587 02:47:25,760 --> 02:47:29,120 outside until the psychonaut encounter some sort of weird 2588 02:47:29,120 --> 02:47:32,040 demon on DMT and then they backtrack and they're like, 2589 02:47:32,280 --> 02:47:36,880 brother, that's just in my head. Don't worry what's in my head 2590 02:47:36,880 --> 02:47:39,400 can't get in your head. So they they go from it until 2591 02:47:39,400 --> 02:47:41,760 you have two different people meeting the same demons. 2592 02:47:41,760 --> 02:47:44,320 Right, right, right. Then you realize, well, wait a 2593 02:47:44,320 --> 02:47:45,760 second, Psychonauts. And maybe not the most. 2594 02:47:45,760 --> 02:47:48,760 Logistically consistent, but I'm just saying again, just to 2595 02:47:49,040 --> 02:47:50,600 hammer the point again and again. 2596 02:47:50,600 --> 02:47:53,480 And again, because it can't be hammered hard enough that there. 2597 02:47:53,480 --> 02:47:57,840 Is a realm that exists outside of us, over which we are not in 2598 02:47:57,840 --> 02:48:01,640 control? Yes, and that it can enter you 2599 02:48:01,640 --> 02:48:05,600 can bring stuff into you that has control over you right, 2600 02:48:05,720 --> 02:48:09,960 right, right totally and and you know, or we could even say 2601 02:48:09,960 --> 02:48:11,680 rulership. So this is. 2602 02:48:12,760 --> 02:48:15,200 It goes on again. I would I suggest. 2603 02:48:15,200 --> 02:48:19,960 Listening to the whole to the whole show, because they they go 2604 02:48:19,960 --> 02:48:23,200 into some stuff that if you've been paying to this show and 2605 02:48:23,200 --> 02:48:27,280 many others in our sphere, they, you know, irritate the mark of 2606 02:48:27,280 --> 02:48:31,560 the beast is, you know, your favorite musician leading you 2607 02:48:31,560 --> 02:48:35,120 towards the demonic. These influences, these things 2608 02:48:35,120 --> 02:48:39,120 are acting upon us externally come from someone else's 2609 02:48:39,120 --> 02:48:47,480 internal internal life, their their own, what they're being 2610 02:48:47,480 --> 02:48:52,720 influenced by and whom and or what in as many cases. 2611 02:48:52,840 --> 02:48:58,320 So where do we place the blame? Someone who's fallen into this 2612 02:48:58,320 --> 02:48:59,360 thing? There's, I think there's a 2613 02:48:59,360 --> 02:49:00,840 discernment to be made there too. 2614 02:49:01,240 --> 02:49:04,320 People who realize this and are leading into it and practicing 2615 02:49:04,320 --> 02:49:08,040 it, and those who are being affected by it and not really 2616 02:49:08,040 --> 02:49:10,760 understanding of what's going on to them, what's going to happen 2617 02:49:10,760 --> 02:49:12,680 to them, until maybe many years later. 2618 02:49:13,120 --> 02:49:14,480 We see this in the influence world, right? 2619 02:49:14,480 --> 02:49:16,800 Britney Spears, it's a tragic figure. 2620 02:49:17,360 --> 02:49:21,760 She was groomed from childhood to be this false thing. 2621 02:49:22,840 --> 02:49:26,480 She can sing and she can dance. She's an entertainer, but she's 2622 02:49:26,480 --> 02:49:30,240 constructed to be that thing. Taylor Swift, bring it back to 2623 02:49:30,240 --> 02:49:32,560 her. She's a constructed being. 2624 02:49:33,680 --> 02:49:37,960 She's she is being manipulated so she can manipulate other 2625 02:49:37,960 --> 02:49:41,480 people. Now currently, obviously her 2626 02:49:41,680 --> 02:49:45,280 change in messaging towards this sort of neo tratty kind of kind 2627 02:49:45,280 --> 02:49:49,080 of life is screwing people up because they were modeling the 2628 02:49:49,080 --> 02:49:52,320 reality and basing the reality off of her and her messaging. 2629 02:49:52,720 --> 02:49:56,680 And the messaging has changed. And that's great for the younger 2630 02:49:56,680 --> 02:49:58,120 kids who are maybe just getting in. 2631 02:49:58,240 --> 02:50:02,520 You know, if you're 20 and you're cute and you're fun and 2632 02:50:02,520 --> 02:50:06,040 you have a whole life ahead of you and you can go find yourself 2633 02:50:06,040 --> 02:50:09,320 a husband and start popping out kids and be a good little 2634 02:50:09,320 --> 02:50:11,840 swifty. But if you're on the wrong side 2635 02:50:11,840 --> 02:50:16,880 of 30 and you you've rejected men, relationships and. 2636 02:50:16,880 --> 02:50:18,480 Marriage. And all these other categories 2637 02:50:18,480 --> 02:50:21,200 and you've actually taken on a personality that makes you kind 2638 02:50:21,200 --> 02:50:23,960 of obnoxious. And I just played the clip and 2639 02:50:23,960 --> 02:50:27,320 people were like, stop the clip. I'm like, Can you imagine that 2640 02:50:27,320 --> 02:50:31,720 woman trying to find a mate, trying to find a guy who who who 2641 02:50:31,720 --> 02:50:34,680 is a more of a traditionalist? Not going to happen. 2642 02:50:37,640 --> 02:50:40,120 She's she's now in that group where the only kind of mate, 2643 02:50:40,320 --> 02:50:43,480 only kind of mate she's going to be able to find is some probably 2644 02:50:43,480 --> 02:50:46,440 liberal or post liberal guy, some guy who's now, you know, 2645 02:50:46,440 --> 02:50:50,320 going from liberalism into that sort of neo, neo tratism. 2646 02:50:50,320 --> 02:50:55,320 And it's going to be awful at it too 'cause they're just, they're 2647 02:50:55,320 --> 02:50:57,640 just modeling false, false. Models. 2648 02:50:59,400 --> 02:51:06,760 Here's a great quote from Father Sarah Monroes. 2649 02:51:08,040 --> 02:51:11,920 When you erase God, all that's left is revolution, chaos and 2650 02:51:11,920 --> 02:51:15,000 false saviors. What do we have? 2651 02:51:15,200 --> 02:51:16,800 The eternal revolution of liberalism. 2652 02:51:17,040 --> 02:51:19,240 Chaos, certainly. Chaos in the streets and in our 2653 02:51:19,240 --> 02:51:23,960 lives and in the world today. Just on your on my feet is chaos 2654 02:51:24,680 --> 02:51:32,360 and false saviors. You know, the neotrads thing, on 2655 02:51:32,360 --> 02:51:35,800 the face of it, more people returning to Christianity and 2656 02:51:35,800 --> 02:51:37,600 religion overall. Good. 2657 02:51:38,520 --> 02:51:40,280 Many will be called, few will be saved. 2658 02:51:40,520 --> 02:51:42,320 But you got to cast a big net, right? 2659 02:51:42,320 --> 02:51:46,240 We're fishers of men, or certainly the Saints, the 2660 02:51:46,240 --> 02:51:48,360 Church, they are fishers of men. I shouldn't speak personally, 2661 02:51:49,160 --> 02:51:52,840 doing what do what I can with what I'm given. 2662 02:51:56,600 --> 02:52:00,920 But then it also has to come with humility, right? 2663 02:52:02,640 --> 02:52:04,360 Go to church, talk to your priest. 2664 02:52:05,200 --> 02:52:09,040 Glory to God for all things tip your streamer get a Ding when 2665 02:52:09,040 --> 02:52:11,840 you do so I got to throw it in there. 2666 02:52:12,920 --> 02:52:14,960 I got to do the grifting game. I got to get better at the 2667 02:52:14,960 --> 02:52:16,920 grifting game. Difficult. 2668 02:52:20,080 --> 02:52:23,040 Let's get to pride, actually, since there's AI do have a good 2669 02:52:23,040 --> 02:52:30,000 quote on this. But two things, yeah. 2670 02:52:30,640 --> 02:52:36,040 Let's do this one first. From an Orthodox ethos, probably 2671 02:52:36,040 --> 02:52:41,240 Pierre hears, I think one talking to I don't know. 2672 02:52:41,240 --> 02:52:48,240 This is Cleave to antiquity, cleave to antiquity. 2673 02:52:48,240 --> 02:52:50,680 Sorry, Cleave to antiquities. Pastor Ben shares one of the 2674 02:52:50,680 --> 02:52:54,600 reasons behind his decision to leave Protestantism for Orthodox 2675 02:52:54,600 --> 02:52:56,560 Christianity. Watch the full interview with 2676 02:52:56,560 --> 02:53:01,320 all of Peter Hears here. So let's just hear what Ben has 2677 02:53:01,320 --> 02:53:02,600 to say here. One of the biggest 2678 02:53:02,600 --> 02:53:06,280 inconsistencies as I study church history is even if we as 2679 02:53:06,280 --> 02:53:08,360 Protestants, which is what I tried to do on my channel. 2680 02:53:08,360 --> 02:53:11,000 Was I would go through the church fathers and I would say, 2681 02:53:11,000 --> 02:53:13,840 hey, actually the Protestant position isn't so out there 2682 02:53:13,840 --> 02:53:15,760 because look at what this church father said, look at what this 2683 02:53:15,760 --> 02:53:17,280 church father said. Look at what this church father 2684 02:53:17,280 --> 02:53:18,960 said. But at the very bedrock of 2685 02:53:18,960 --> 02:53:21,880 Protestant theologies, the rejection of the ecumenical 2686 02:53:21,880 --> 02:53:25,080 councils is divinely inspired. And if you were to look at the 2687 02:53:25,080 --> 02:53:27,680 writings of the Church fathers that were there, like even at 2688 02:53:27,680 --> 02:53:30,560 Nicaea, one, they say inspired by the Holy Spirit, guided by 2689 02:53:30,560 --> 02:53:33,120 the Holy Spirit, divinely inspired cannot be changed. 2690 02:53:33,200 --> 02:53:36,120 The Orthodox Church is the only church that actually holds to 2691 02:53:36,160 --> 02:53:39,480 the ecumenical councils in that way and doesn't have further 2692 02:53:39,480 --> 02:53:43,120 developments post that to kind of reconcile why they changed. 2693 02:53:43,200 --> 02:53:46,240 And I noticed that a lot of my critiques had to do with like 2694 02:53:46,240 --> 02:53:49,720 practice, maybe applications of canons, but never with the view 2695 02:53:49,720 --> 02:53:51,480 of the ecumenical councils themselves. 2696 02:53:51,560 --> 02:53:54,080 So I realized over time, I'm like, man, a lot of my 2697 02:53:54,080 --> 02:53:57,600 criticisms in the debates that I would I would do with Orthodox 2698 02:53:57,680 --> 02:54:00,720 are mostly about practice. And that's, that's not very good 2699 02:54:00,880 --> 02:54:03,200 because that's just the sinfulness of man or whatever 2700 02:54:03,200 --> 02:54:05,480 the case may be. So that's not a valid reason to 2701 02:54:05,480 --> 02:54:09,360 prevent me from joining. What's he expressing here? 2702 02:54:10,160 --> 02:54:11,440 Right? Humility. 2703 02:54:12,000 --> 02:54:15,000 Understanding that. What he thought was real or 2704 02:54:15,000 --> 02:54:17,560 true, it really wasn't at the end of the day. 2705 02:54:17,560 --> 02:54:20,280 And really what it rested upon was who has authority? 2706 02:54:20,880 --> 02:54:24,000 Well, if the councils don't have authority, if the Church Fathers 2707 02:54:24,000 --> 02:54:27,040 don't have authority, if no one who's discerned the Bible, 2708 02:54:27,040 --> 02:54:30,680 since, you know, since it's canonization, those who canonize 2709 02:54:30,680 --> 02:54:33,000 the Bible itself, the only reason you have the Bible in his 2710 02:54:33,000 --> 02:54:39,200 form is from these men who believe, you know, believed and 2711 02:54:39,200 --> 02:54:43,800 acted on revelations from God. If, if they don't hold 2712 02:54:43,800 --> 02:54:47,640 authority, then why would Pastor Bob have authority? 2713 02:54:47,640 --> 02:54:49,840 Why would you have authority, me or anybody else? 2714 02:54:51,480 --> 02:54:54,160 I can read English, read the read your version of the Bible 2715 02:54:54,160 --> 02:54:58,040 and go, Oh yeah, see, I'm, I'm the authority now I hold because 2716 02:54:58,040 --> 02:55:00,400 I'm holding the authority. The the book is the authority. 2717 02:55:01,040 --> 02:55:03,720 And if I read it and speak it, then I become the authority too. 2718 02:55:03,800 --> 02:55:07,240 I'm taking the authority from the Bible and using it, applying 2719 02:55:07,240 --> 02:55:14,160 it. But how can a book, no matter 2720 02:55:14,160 --> 02:55:17,600 how divinely inspired the book is, or the writings, or the 2721 02:55:17,600 --> 02:55:19,000 teachings and all the rest of it is? 2722 02:55:19,160 --> 02:55:21,360 How can that? Alone give me authority. 2723 02:55:21,920 --> 02:55:26,120 Who am I? What have I sacrificed? 2724 02:55:27,120 --> 02:55:30,760 Where's my responsibility to you, myself? 2725 02:55:30,760 --> 02:55:35,840 Others see. So it's an act of humility to 2726 02:55:35,840 --> 02:55:39,640 understand that we maybe don't know what we think we know. 2727 02:55:42,720 --> 02:55:47,760 Here's another one. This is understanding pride. 2728 02:55:48,240 --> 02:55:52,520 This is Arch Priest Andre the Chinook explains what pride is 2729 02:55:52,520 --> 02:55:56,920 and how it manifests itself. So hang on a second here, I'll 2730 02:55:56,920 --> 02:55:59,560 read along the translation question. 2731 02:55:59,560 --> 02:56:01,640 What is pride and how does it manifest itself? 2732 02:56:06,720 --> 02:56:09,440 Pride is loneliness. Here I am and everything around 2733 02:56:09,440 --> 02:56:11,520 me is already. Me. 2734 02:56:13,400 --> 02:56:19,240 Yeah, hell is eternal loneliness. 2735 02:56:19,360 --> 02:56:22,280 Pride is when a person believes that he can do everything by. 2736 02:56:22,280 --> 02:56:33,040 Himself. That he needs no one and that in 2737 02:56:33,040 --> 02:56:36,000 general he can be the judge of everything. 2738 02:56:43,000 --> 02:56:46,920 So again, who rules? Who rules this world? 2739 02:56:50,600 --> 02:56:57,360 We can get to the more obvious, we'll get to the more obvious 2740 02:56:57,360 --> 02:57:01,240 ones, right? More obvious manifestations of 2741 02:57:01,240 --> 02:57:05,840 rulership, of those who believe that they rule, at least, who, 2742 02:57:06,240 --> 02:57:10,040 who act as if they rule, who are creating mechanisms of control 2743 02:57:10,040 --> 02:57:12,680 to prove the rulership, to prove their authority. 2744 02:57:13,160 --> 02:57:15,720 Because they're going to be the ones with the mechanisms. 2745 02:57:15,720 --> 02:57:17,320 They're going to be the ones with their fingers on the 2746 02:57:17,320 --> 02:57:20,040 buttons. This is for brick coin. 2747 02:57:22,960 --> 02:57:25,240 Brick coin is. Speculated now this. 2748 02:57:25,240 --> 02:57:30,920 Is this British CBDC system digital currency Plan A guys 2749 02:57:30,920 --> 02:57:33,400 right still going along with this? 2750 02:57:33,680 --> 02:57:35,400 They're destroying the system so they can. 2751 02:57:35,520 --> 02:57:37,720 Put this through. I thought they, I think they 2752 02:57:37,760 --> 02:57:40,360 wanted to be global, but now they're going to be at least 2753 02:57:40,360 --> 02:57:43,800 regional and see how it goes. So of course we're seeing 2754 02:57:43,800 --> 02:57:46,480 reports of Britain. The big, the big news out of 2755 02:57:46,480 --> 02:57:48,200 Britain is the digital ID, right? 2756 02:57:48,440 --> 02:57:50,360 They're not even trying to call a brick card. 2757 02:57:50,400 --> 02:57:52,160 I think that was what they were originally going to call it. 2758 02:57:52,160 --> 02:57:54,200 Now they're just coming out and saying it's digital ID and 2759 02:57:54,680 --> 02:57:57,000 they're going to use this digital ID as a digital online 2760 02:57:57,000 --> 02:58:00,240 passport and connect it to work visas and all the rest of it. 2761 02:58:00,240 --> 02:58:03,840 So the claim is that it's going to prevent illegal immigration 2762 02:58:03,840 --> 02:58:06,320 because you won't be able to work without a proper ID. 2763 02:58:06,320 --> 02:58:09,520 And you'll get this through an authoritative body, right? 2764 02:58:11,080 --> 02:58:13,800 The authorities will give you this card and now you will have 2765 02:58:13,960 --> 02:58:19,400 be gifted the authority to work and, you know, have prosperity, 2766 02:58:19,400 --> 02:58:22,080 I guess, in Britain, all throughout the UK. 2767 02:58:23,400 --> 02:58:27,760 The speculation is that they're going to tie the digital ID 2768 02:58:27,760 --> 02:58:33,720 wallets to your CBDC, to your Bitcoin, and then they'll be 2769 02:58:33,720 --> 02:58:37,600 able to control how you spend and what you spend it on and all 2770 02:58:37,600 --> 02:58:39,680 the rest of it. Now people go that's crazy 2771 02:58:40,520 --> 02:58:45,480 conspiracy theory. Again, the technology itself is 2772 02:58:45,480 --> 02:58:49,840 neutral in that clip before I cut it off before with Tucker 2773 02:58:49,840 --> 02:58:54,200 and and Opie there, but they do get into into the things I 2774 02:58:54,200 --> 02:58:56,920 brought on the show, which is like world coin Horowitz 2775 02:58:57,000 --> 02:58:59,800 venture, you know, where you scan your eyeball to have a 2776 02:58:59,800 --> 02:59:02,520 digital passport to, you know, you don't have to get rid of, 2777 02:59:02,680 --> 02:59:04,040 you know, get rid of all your passwords. 2778 02:59:04,040 --> 02:59:05,480 It's kind of how it's going to be sold, right? 2779 02:59:05,720 --> 02:59:08,800 It's how they're selling the brick, the digital ID in the UK. 2780 02:59:09,240 --> 02:59:13,760 It's such a hassle to find all your all your identification 2781 02:59:13,760 --> 02:59:15,520 papers. Wouldn't it be easiest to have 2782 02:59:15,520 --> 02:59:20,880 it all in one place to authenticate yourself? 2783 02:59:21,240 --> 02:59:24,000 For those who demand authentication, who create all 2784 02:59:24,000 --> 02:59:27,720 the rules for authentication, whether new rule just Yeah, it's 2785 02:59:27,760 --> 02:59:33,560 easy, right? The, and I'm going to actually 2786 02:59:33,560 --> 02:59:38,880 return to that clip with Tucker to finish this off because cut 2787 02:59:38,880 --> 02:59:40,720 it off before he gets into some more interesting territory 2788 02:59:40,720 --> 02:59:43,520 specifically around this kind of stuff, talking about the mark of 2789 02:59:43,520 --> 02:59:48,720 the beast and how many in the in Silicon Valley were unaware of 2790 02:59:48,720 --> 02:59:50,160 this thing. If you're not exposed to 2791 02:59:50,160 --> 02:59:52,240 religion at all, if you've been raised a secularist or, you 2792 02:59:52,240 --> 02:59:55,280 know, outside the religion entirely, you're not aware of 2793 02:59:56,920 --> 03:00:01,440 of, you know, the premonitions put through in Revelation, you 2794 03:00:01,440 --> 03:00:04,200 know that you get, you'll get this mark of the beast and you 2795 03:00:04,200 --> 03:00:06,200 require it to do any kind of commerce. 2796 03:00:09,520 --> 03:00:12,080 Oops. And we think mark will be like a 2797 03:00:12,080 --> 03:00:15,960 tattoo or something, and maybe eventually it will be, but 2798 03:00:15,960 --> 03:00:20,160 either whether it's on your skin or in your wallet or on your 2799 03:00:20,160 --> 03:00:25,400 phone or wherever on your wristwatch, it's still be a mark 2800 03:00:25,400 --> 03:00:29,480 that you're going to need to access everything else. 2801 03:00:31,200 --> 03:00:36,080 Now, some people think, well, look, it's a way to combat AI, 2802 03:00:36,080 --> 03:00:39,240 you know, people using AI to create digital copies of 2803 03:00:39,240 --> 03:00:42,200 yourself, to be duplicitous to, you know, all the rest of it. 2804 03:00:43,280 --> 03:00:46,160 OK, fair enough. A security measure for yourself 2805 03:00:47,560 --> 03:00:49,400 against deep fakes and all the rest of it. 2806 03:00:49,960 --> 03:00:52,440 And that's a it's a good sales pitch. 2807 03:00:52,640 --> 03:00:55,360 The thing is that no matter what you build, there's going to be 2808 03:00:55,360 --> 03:00:59,000 hackers. No security system is 100 is is 2809 03:00:59,000 --> 03:01:02,360 foolproof. Never has never existed will 2810 03:01:02,360 --> 03:01:04,960 never exist, especially when you take something that you know, 2811 03:01:04,960 --> 03:01:09,000 you might be able to build the world's greatest safe that'll 2812 03:01:09,000 --> 03:01:11,560 protect you and your and stuff you put in that safe. 2813 03:01:11,560 --> 03:01:13,520 Maybe it's, it's such a, you know, a. 2814 03:01:14,600 --> 03:01:17,080 Thief proof. Safe or security system that it 2815 03:01:17,080 --> 03:01:19,000 would take an elite thief to get through it? 2816 03:01:19,000 --> 03:01:21,840 OK, But when you sort of apply this kind of security system to 2817 03:01:21,840 --> 03:01:25,400 the world at large and to everybody, well, suddenly it's 2818 03:01:25,400 --> 03:01:27,840 not just one little safe we're talking about here, right? 2819 03:01:27,840 --> 03:01:30,520 It's creating a panopticon, a great big safe around a whole 2820 03:01:30,520 --> 03:01:33,840 big bunch of peoples. And when you start to scale this 2821 03:01:33,840 --> 03:01:36,800 thing into its logical conclusions, you have the 2822 03:01:36,800 --> 03:01:42,280 problem of humans being humans. Number one problem is that, 2823 03:01:42,280 --> 03:01:44,200 well, you don't you know that these elites aren't. 2824 03:01:44,200 --> 03:01:46,000 Going to be held by. These same rules, are they? 2825 03:01:46,000 --> 03:01:49,160 No. You know, we saw this during the 2826 03:01:49,160 --> 03:01:52,000 lockdowns. Everyone else, you get called 2827 03:01:52,000 --> 03:01:54,240 out of your house if you had one extra guest at Thanksgiving 2828 03:01:54,240 --> 03:01:56,360 dinner. Well, Boris Johnson and many of 2829 03:01:56,480 --> 03:01:58,440 these other people are having parties on rooftops. 2830 03:01:59,600 --> 03:02:04,280 No masks, no nothing. Yeah, rules for thee, but not 2831 03:02:04,280 --> 03:02:09,720 for me. The bitter white pill here is 2832 03:02:09,720 --> 03:02:13,120 all these things are being designed by incredibly, well, 2833 03:02:13,200 --> 03:02:17,280 mostly, let's say mostly, people being designed by incredibly 2834 03:02:17,280 --> 03:02:22,400 corrupt people who think they're better than you or different or 2835 03:02:22,480 --> 03:02:25,640 more deserving. There goes. 2836 03:02:25,640 --> 03:02:29,120 Some they'll be loopholes and once you create loopholes for 2837 03:02:29,120 --> 03:02:31,040 this group of people, well, guess what? 2838 03:02:31,040 --> 03:02:35,160 People who are really good at exploiting loopholes will find 2839 03:02:35,160 --> 03:02:38,520 the loopholes and exploit them. Piracy being one of, you know, a 2840 03:02:38,800 --> 03:02:40,960 clear example. Lots of money and effort and 2841 03:02:40,960 --> 03:02:44,160 tension have been put into making sure piracy doesn't work 2842 03:02:44,160 --> 03:02:46,160 and gosh darn it, and this is what's still going on in this 2843 03:02:46,160 --> 03:02:52,200 world. So here's a clip about brick 2844 03:02:52,200 --> 03:02:55,120 coin. I'll just read the This is from 2845 03:02:55,120 --> 03:02:57,520 Wide Awake Media. Former Bank of England deputy 2846 03:02:57,520 --> 03:03:03,760 John Cunliffe, praising PAL, compares Brick Coin, the UK's 2847 03:03:03,760 --> 03:03:07,120 incoming CBDC, to giving your. Children pocket money. 2848 03:03:07,440 --> 03:03:10,200 But programming the money so it could be it couldn't be used for 2849 03:03:10,200 --> 03:03:12,600 sweets. There are new forms of money. 2850 03:03:13,320 --> 03:03:15,520 These new forms of money offer the ability for them to be 2851 03:03:15,520 --> 03:03:18,440 programmed to be released only when something happened. 2852 03:03:18,800 --> 03:03:21,920 There's a whole range of things that programmable money could do 2853 03:03:22,160 --> 03:03:25,400 which can't, which we can't do with current technology. 2854 03:03:26,040 --> 03:03:29,400 Remember, the CBDC's can't be rolled out until digital ID is 2855 03:03:29,400 --> 03:03:31,760 in place first. And if both are allowed to take 2856 03:03:31,760 --> 03:03:34,080 root, they can be tied to a social credit systems and 2857 03:03:34,080 --> 03:03:37,080 personal carbon allowances, enabling authorities to approve, 2858 03:03:37,080 --> 03:03:40,040 restrict, or block purchases based on behavior, location, or 2859 03:03:40,040 --> 03:03:45,000 carbon footprints. Once these systems are in place, 2860 03:03:45,000 --> 03:03:46,800 every transaction becomes a checkpoint. 2861 03:03:46,800 --> 03:03:49,640 An algorithm could deny your payment or freeze your account 2862 03:03:49,640 --> 03:03:53,560 entirely for refusing A mandated vaccine, sharing misinformation 2863 03:03:53,560 --> 03:03:56,480 on social media, or exceeding your designated personal carbon 2864 03:03:56,480 --> 03:03:59,080 allowance. In other words, totalitarian 2865 03:03:59,080 --> 03:04:01,520 control on an unprecedented scale. 2866 03:04:03,120 --> 03:04:04,520 Let's listen to what this guy has to say. 2867 03:04:05,600 --> 03:04:08,880 The Bank of Inland. I guess he's using a filter, but 2868 03:04:08,880 --> 03:04:11,480 this looks AI. Doesn't it? 2869 03:04:12,200 --> 03:04:15,440 He kind of looks AI in this. Clip We issue banknotes, the 2870 03:04:15,440 --> 03:04:18,200 notes that everybody holds in their pocket, but we don't hit 2871 03:04:18,200 --> 03:04:22,120 issue any money in digital. Form So when you pay with a card 2872 03:04:22,120 --> 03:04:25,680 or with your phone on a digital transaction, you're actually 2873 03:04:25,680 --> 03:04:28,360 using your bank account, you're transferring money from your 2874 03:04:28,360 --> 03:04:32,080 bank account to somebody else's. A central bank digital currency, 2875 03:04:32,080 --> 03:04:35,760 a digital pound, would actually be a claim on the Bank of 2876 03:04:35,760 --> 03:04:39,160 England issued by us directly to the public. 2877 03:04:39,160 --> 03:04:42,840 And these new forms of money offer the ability for them to be 2878 03:04:42,840 --> 03:04:46,400 integrated more with with other things through their software. 2879 03:04:46,600 --> 03:04:50,400 So you can think of smart contracts in in which you know 2880 03:04:50,400 --> 03:04:53,600 the money would be programmed to be released only when something 2881 03:04:53,600 --> 03:04:55,600 happened. You could think, for example, of 2882 03:04:55,920 --> 03:04:58,360 giving your children pocket money, but programming the money 2883 03:04:58,360 --> 03:05:00,320 so that it couldn't be used for sweets. 2884 03:05:01,240 --> 03:05:04,480 There's a whole range of things that money could do, 2885 03:05:05,520 --> 03:05:08,240 programmable money as it's called, which we can't do with 2886 03:05:08,240 --> 03:05:10,320 the current technology at the moment. 2887 03:05:10,720 --> 03:05:12,480 The bank. Now, of course, the selling 2888 03:05:12,480 --> 03:05:14,240 point here would be to keep people safe. 2889 03:05:14,240 --> 03:05:15,920 Security, right? What's the thing that you 2890 03:05:15,920 --> 03:05:17,240 wouldn't want people spending money on? 2891 03:05:17,240 --> 03:05:18,600 Oh well. You know, weapons and all the 2892 03:05:18,600 --> 03:05:21,440 rest of it, right? Living in the UK should be like 2893 03:05:21,440 --> 03:05:25,120 steak knives. Sure, there's a sales pitch, of 2894 03:05:27,040 --> 03:05:30,160 course, and all the obvious dangers of society. 2895 03:05:30,160 --> 03:05:34,200 We can simply say, OK, well, we can maybe trust people to not 2896 03:05:34,200 --> 03:05:37,120 want certain people to get certain access to certain 2897 03:05:37,120 --> 03:05:41,560 things. OK, here's your problem is that 2898 03:05:41,560 --> 03:05:44,920 we're relying on incredibly people who've proven themselves 2899 03:05:44,920 --> 03:05:45,960 being credibly. Corrupt. 2900 03:05:46,200 --> 03:05:49,200 Or self interested, or certainly not interested in the well-being 2901 03:05:49,240 --> 03:05:52,880 of the citizens or others who are not part of their own class 2902 03:05:53,160 --> 03:05:58,440 to utilize discernment and responsibility for how we spend 2903 03:05:58,440 --> 03:06:01,160 our money. Huh. 2904 03:06:02,400 --> 03:06:05,760 Wait, shouldn't that fall on me? Shouldn't I have the authority 2905 03:06:05,760 --> 03:06:08,480 of my own finances? I mean, I work for the finances. 2906 03:06:08,480 --> 03:06:12,480 I, I do the labor to produce the money to then use that money to 2907 03:06:12,480 --> 03:06:15,080 do things with, right? Is it on? 2908 03:06:15,240 --> 03:06:17,280 Shouldn't that be on me? And they're like, no, no, no, 2909 03:06:17,280 --> 03:06:19,880 no, no, no. See, the problem is that the 2910 03:06:19,880 --> 03:06:22,600 common person can't be, shouldn't have it at those 2911 03:06:22,600 --> 03:06:25,640 authorities only we should have that authority because 2912 03:06:26,600 --> 03:06:28,520 obviously, look at us, we're so great. 2913 03:06:29,080 --> 03:06:33,520 We go to all the fine dinners and have the nice suits and have 2914 03:06:33,720 --> 03:06:36,680 all the proper education and all the proper ideas. 2915 03:06:38,840 --> 03:06:42,240 So you can trust us. And even if you can't trust us, 2916 03:06:42,240 --> 03:06:44,320 well, too bad, because. You're going to fear us. 2917 03:06:45,520 --> 03:06:47,600 These people have been granted authority. 2918 03:06:47,960 --> 03:06:50,600 They haven't earned it. Look at this man. 2919 03:06:51,000 --> 03:06:55,040 Honestly. Look at him. 2920 03:06:56,560 --> 03:07:01,520 This man is saying that him and his his buddies should have the 2921 03:07:01,520 --> 03:07:04,040 authority over how you spend your own money. 2922 03:07:05,600 --> 03:07:08,360 And you can use the extreme examples of the terrorist or the 2923 03:07:08,760 --> 03:07:11,520 this the that the, the narrow do wells, the people who are going 2924 03:07:11,920 --> 03:07:15,440 to, you know, collect money and spend it on bad things, bad, bad 2925 03:07:15,440 --> 03:07:16,320 people. Yeah. 2926 03:07:17,760 --> 03:07:19,400 This is not going to get rid of the bad people. 2927 03:07:20,680 --> 03:07:26,960 This is going to make the bad people more creative because 2928 03:07:27,880 --> 03:07:30,240 this in itself doesn't really do anything. 2929 03:07:32,920 --> 03:07:35,200 This is kind of is part of that whole quote. 2930 03:07:37,160 --> 03:07:40,280 Recently. Going around, I don't know if 2931 03:07:40,280 --> 03:07:43,840 you've been checking this out and it's Kasparian did a 2932 03:07:43,840 --> 03:07:49,600 reaction, I'll play a clip in a SEC, But Larry Ellison of 2933 03:07:49,600 --> 03:07:54,480 Oracle, among others, has come out and said that yes, we're 2934 03:07:54,480 --> 03:07:58,720 going to use this AI and all the rest of it to police people to 2935 03:07:58,720 --> 03:08:00,560 make sure that people don't do the bad things. 2936 03:08:01,160 --> 03:08:03,480 People are going to be on their best behavior because we're 2937 03:08:03,480 --> 03:08:06,160 going to be watching. We're going to use the digital 2938 03:08:06,160 --> 03:08:08,680 highs in the world and all these, these technology, this 2939 03:08:08,680 --> 03:08:12,040 technology to make people act morally. 2940 03:08:12,040 --> 03:08:15,760 It almost feels like a religion, doesn't it? 2941 03:08:15,760 --> 03:08:18,560 So you get rid of that religion that held people. 2942 03:08:18,560 --> 03:08:23,000 Together in a moral. Sense and a shared region and 2943 03:08:23,280 --> 03:08:25,640 history and all these things. You got rid of all those things. 2944 03:08:25,640 --> 03:08:28,520 You destroyed all those things said, oh, that's antiquated. 2945 03:08:28,520 --> 03:08:31,600 That's that's for peanut heads. No, no, no, no. 2946 03:08:31,600 --> 03:08:34,080 We're going to progress to this new thing which is going to 2947 03:08:34,080 --> 03:08:38,280 substantiate morality and a region in a area where all going 2948 03:08:38,280 --> 03:08:40,960 to be just Singapore, but digital Singapore's. 2949 03:08:42,200 --> 03:08:48,000 And this has LED Ana Kasparian.

Everyone will be on their best 2956 03:09:16,640 --> 03:09:20,160 behaviour. Yes, yes, we're going to surveil 2957 03:09:20,160 --> 03:09:22,520 everybody. Everyone will be on their best 2958 03:09:22,520 --> 03:09:28,040 behaviour. Yeah, women are not doing well, 2959 03:09:28,040 --> 03:09:29,040 man. I don't know if you've been 2960 03:09:29,040 --> 03:09:32,000 noticing this, folks. I just been noticing my own, my 2961 03:09:32,000 --> 03:09:34,600 own little pure of the world. Women are tweaking. 2962 03:09:34,960 --> 03:09:39,480 They're, you know, if we use women as as as vibe detectors, 2963 03:09:41,040 --> 03:09:43,720 the vibes changing and it's it's looking a little bit more 2964 03:09:43,720 --> 03:09:47,680 demonic every day. This is a this is a mash up of 2965 03:09:47,680 --> 03:09:49,400 Anna Kasparian and Candace Owens. 2966 03:09:49,400 --> 03:09:52,400 Yes, we're going to hang on a second here. 2967 03:09:53,840 --> 03:09:56,040 Let's play that from the top, everybody. 2968 03:09:57,120 --> 03:09:59,400 Everyone.

Things are happening again. 2973 03:10:17,920 --> 03:10:18,920 They're happening quickly. Yes. 2974 03:10:21,920 --> 03:10:24,680 We're going to surveil everybody. 2975 03:10:26,080 --> 03:10:29,320 Everyone will be on their best behaviour. 2976 03:10:32,080 --> 03:10:35,400 Sorry I put that together, it makes me chuckle. 2977 03:10:36,680 --> 03:10:39,880 OK, one last one. Because we haven't even talked 2978 03:10:39,880 --> 03:10:43,360 about the group that everyone thinks when I say who rules the 2979 03:10:43,360 --> 03:10:48,480 world. Well, you know, quite often 2980 03:10:48,640 --> 03:10:53,840 these days one group gets mentioned above all of us. 2981 03:10:55,840 --> 03:11:00,720 Here's Matt Gaetz on Tim Poole talking about when he was in 2982 03:11:00,720 --> 03:11:05,600 government as congressman and he went to an AIPAC reception. 2983 03:11:06,600 --> 03:11:12,960 So part of this clip he's talks about, oops, he says at my first 2984 03:11:12,960 --> 03:11:15,520 AIPAC reception, Hang on a second, let me just get rid of 2985 03:11:15,520 --> 03:11:18,600 this. Why does it do that? 2986 03:11:18,960 --> 03:11:21,600 Weird. At my first AIPAC reception, you 2987 03:11:21,600 --> 03:11:26,160 had to wear a name badge with AQR code, talk to donors, and if 2988 03:11:26,160 --> 03:11:29,160 they liked you, they scanned it to donate on the spot. 2989 03:11:30,840 --> 03:11:33,040 Technology has even reached the lobbyist zone. 2990 03:11:34,600 --> 03:11:37,800 Initially, I resented the fact that there was no appreciation 2991 03:11:37,800 --> 03:11:40,160 for nuance. Like if you if you asked any 2992 03:11:40,160 --> 03:11:42,240 questions. About any decision of the 2993 03:11:42,480 --> 03:11:46,760 Israeli government in any place regarding settlements, regarding 2994 03:11:46,920 --> 03:11:51,840 Gaza, regard whatever you were like you, you had deviated from 2995 03:11:51,840 --> 03:11:55,080 the script. And I just in any policy area, I 2996 03:11:55,080 --> 03:11:59,320 had resentment over that. And then I saw the way the AIPAC 2997 03:11:59,320 --> 03:12:03,800 worked and that that was weird for like a country lawyer like 2998 03:12:03,800 --> 03:12:05,520 me. I remember my first AIPAC 2999 03:12:05,520 --> 03:12:07,960 reception and like your fundraiser tells you, you have 3000 03:12:07,960 --> 03:12:10,800 to go and your chief of staff tells you have to go. 3001 03:12:10,880 --> 03:12:12,800 Your committee chairman, I'll tell you have to go. 3002 03:12:12,920 --> 03:12:14,760 And you get there and you wear this name badge. 3003 03:12:15,040 --> 03:12:16,840 And I remember there's AQR code on it. 3004 03:12:16,840 --> 03:12:20,600 And what we were supposed to do was go talk to donors and then 3005 03:12:20,600 --> 03:12:25,040 if they liked you, they scanned your QR code to make a donation 3006 03:12:25,040 --> 03:12:28,720 like on the spot. And so this can you just imagine 3007 03:12:28,720 --> 03:12:32,120 how demoralizing that is to like be told that your job for the 3008 03:12:32,120 --> 03:12:34,640 next several hours to go chat people up, hoping they would 3009 03:12:34,640 --> 03:12:38,600 scan you like a can of tomato soup on the way out of the 3010 03:12:38,600 --> 03:12:40,680 meeting. And it's like literally 3011 03:12:40,680 --> 03:12:43,280 purchasing, right? And so I, I saw that and I was 3012 03:12:43,280 --> 03:12:45,240 like, wow, that is so freaking weird. 3013 03:12:45,640 --> 03:12:46,840 And. Then I, you know, I was in 3014 03:12:46,840 --> 03:12:50,080 Israel. I went multiple times and I did 3015 03:12:50,080 --> 03:12:52,600 not like the fact that I found someone in my room rooting 3016 03:12:52,600 --> 03:12:55,080 around in my stuff that should not have been there at the King 3017 03:12:55,080 --> 03:12:57,640 David Hotel. When I came back to my room when 3018 03:12:57,640 --> 03:13:01,640 no one was expecting me to be back in my room and I presumably 3019 03:13:01,640 --> 03:13:03,440 Israeli long. I don't know who it was. 3020 03:13:03,440 --> 03:13:05,280 I just thought like, this is weird. 3021 03:13:05,320 --> 03:13:07,360 All of these things combined are odd. 3022 03:13:07,360 --> 03:13:11,200 And then the policy outgrowth seems to be an obsession about 3023 03:13:11,200 --> 03:13:13,920 the Middle East that has not served my generation well. 3024 03:13:14,080 --> 03:13:17,000 I just don't. Well, there you go. 3025 03:13:17,880 --> 03:13:22,120 So it must be. Yes, we're. 3026 03:13:22,280 --> 03:13:27,880 Going to surveil everybody. Everyone will be on their best 3027 03:13:28,880 --> 03:13:34,440 behaviour. I didn't intend that to happen, 3028 03:13:34,720 --> 03:13:38,680 but I'm kind of glad it did. Because it's just the proper 3029 03:13:38,680 --> 03:13:41,040 creepiness. I gotta get rid of this Anna 3030 03:13:41,040 --> 03:13:49,200 creep. But must be, must be the bagels. 3031 03:13:49,800 --> 03:13:52,440 Must be them. They rule the world. 3032 03:13:53,160 --> 03:13:56,640 Have a little time place. There's like 12 million of them, 3033 03:13:56,640 --> 03:13:58,760 and they rule it. Interesting. 3034 03:13:59,720 --> 03:14:00,480 Yeah. Fun. 3035 03:14:00,960 --> 03:14:02,400 Oh, they certainly. Have influence, they certainly 3036 03:14:02,400 --> 03:14:05,960 have wealth, they certainly have power or they use other people 3037 03:14:05,960 --> 03:14:09,040 to use their power to gain authority from other people. 3038 03:14:09,040 --> 03:14:14,000 And as Matt Gates is here is talking about Congressman, 3039 03:14:14,000 --> 03:14:17,360 you're, you know, serving the government and you go around and 3040 03:14:17,360 --> 03:14:20,520 they scan you and to get, you know, they just donate money 3041 03:14:20,520 --> 03:14:25,520 directly to your account. Just one, no fuss, no muss, no 3042 03:14:25,520 --> 03:14:27,960 signing of checks or something. That's it's progressed a little 3043 03:14:27,960 --> 03:14:32,200 bit. So may the lobbyists have ruled 3044 03:14:32,200 --> 03:14:37,640 this world special interests. And as I've said to people 3045 03:14:37,640 --> 03:14:39,800 before, and I know no one wants to hear this, but I'll say it 3046 03:14:39,800 --> 03:14:42,720 again. City of London, for example, 3047 03:14:43,440 --> 03:14:45,680 isn't just a place, it's an idea. 3048 03:14:45,840 --> 03:14:48,720 It can move. It was in Amsterdam, it was in 3049 03:14:48,720 --> 03:14:53,200 Holland before that it was, you know, it was in Venice. 3050 03:14:53,560 --> 03:14:56,160 Apparently there's reports now that they might be moving it 3051 03:14:56,160 --> 03:14:58,880 back to Italy. It's in London, it's been in 3052 03:14:58,880 --> 03:15:02,680 London for a while. It's banks, power, money, 3053 03:15:03,680 --> 03:15:08,920 influence, people who have designs and they believe they 3054 03:15:08,920 --> 03:15:11,520 have future plannings and want to be involved in everything. 3055 03:15:11,520 --> 03:15:14,840 They want control because I mean, they have authority, don't 3056 03:15:14,840 --> 03:15:18,080 they? They have a nice office and the, 3057 03:15:18,080 --> 03:15:21,840 the, you know, they're called Lords and all this other stuff. 3058 03:15:21,840 --> 03:15:25,400 And they have, you know, all this power invested in them. 3059 03:15:25,920 --> 03:15:27,920 They're given this authority of their position, has this 3060 03:15:27,920 --> 03:15:30,840 authority that they can use. So you can use it. 3061 03:15:30,840 --> 03:15:33,760 You might as well use it. If you don't use it, you lose 3062 03:15:33,760 --> 03:15:37,280 it. So may they rule the world. 3063 03:15:41,400 --> 03:15:44,240 And of course, because. You have the Rothschilds or you 3064 03:15:44,240 --> 03:15:47,000 have certain members that are included in that group. 3065 03:15:47,320 --> 03:15:48,720 Well, then that must be all of them. 3066 03:15:50,800 --> 03:15:52,760 Israel somehow is a tail that wags the dog. 3067 03:15:58,340 --> 03:16:00,980 And I don't even want to waste time trying to dissuade you of 3068 03:16:00,980 --> 03:16:05,220 these ideas at this point. I understand what they're born 3069 03:16:05,220 --> 03:16:07,900 out of. Understand why you think these 3070 03:16:07,900 --> 03:16:12,820 things, because there's a lot of, let's say, reasons to. 3071 03:16:13,180 --> 03:16:15,220 They're giving you a whole bunch of reasons to think this. 3072 03:16:16,800 --> 03:16:19,600 And certainly any kind of foreign group that is making 3073 03:16:19,600 --> 03:16:23,200 America do things or any country do things or say things, or you 3074 03:16:23,200 --> 03:16:26,400 can't say certain things because it'll upset other people in 3075 03:16:26,400 --> 03:16:27,720 other countries. You're like, wait, what? 3076 03:16:27,720 --> 03:16:29,360 What? Why do I have to care about 3077 03:16:29,360 --> 03:16:31,840 people living in the other countries even though I'm using 3078 03:16:31,840 --> 03:16:34,680 this global network thing? It's like they're free to not 3079 03:16:34,680 --> 03:16:37,920 listen to me. So what do I have to care about 3080 03:16:37,920 --> 03:16:39,840 this? Why am I being forced to? 3081 03:16:42,080 --> 03:16:46,240 Part of the thing that authoritarianism grants people 3082 03:16:46,720 --> 03:16:51,200 is that you need to have these demonstrations. 3083 03:16:53,920 --> 03:16:58,480 Demonstration of power, in many cases is more powerful than 3084 03:16:58,480 --> 03:17:02,600 power itself. If you can't show it, you can't 3085 03:17:02,600 --> 03:17:05,800 prove your power, then what good is it? 3086 03:17:08,360 --> 03:17:14,480 The other thing that I think is an inversion of thinking is this 3087 03:17:14,480 --> 03:17:18,280 idea that, and Tucker talks about this in that in that 3088 03:17:18,280 --> 03:17:24,720 podcast episode where he says that that statecraft is there to 3089 03:17:24,720 --> 03:17:29,080 prevent war or something along those lines. 3090 03:17:30,120 --> 03:17:34,720 And I would push back and say that in actuality, war or let's 3091 03:17:34,720 --> 03:17:39,960 say violent conflict is the, is the desired outcome always, 3092 03:17:42,200 --> 03:17:46,600 because it's, it's the true resolution of conflict. 3093 03:17:48,440 --> 03:17:50,240 The thing about violence is it's honest. 3094 03:17:50,240 --> 03:17:53,400 You can't take putt, you can't take back a punch. 3095 03:17:53,400 --> 03:17:54,960 We're talking about actions, right? 3096 03:17:56,320 --> 03:17:57,640 A punch in the face. So there you go. 3097 03:17:57,640 --> 03:18:02,600 If I punch you in the face and you break your nose, that's 3098 03:18:02,600 --> 03:18:05,480 honest. That's really did happen. 3099 03:18:07,400 --> 03:18:10,120 Don't need any digital ID to prove that otherwise to verify 3100 03:18:10,120 --> 03:18:13,600 the information. You take that into a war. 3101 03:18:13,600 --> 03:18:16,480 Scale. Well, it's the absolute 3102 03:18:16,480 --> 03:18:19,240 resolution of a conflict. Why is there conflict? 3103 03:18:20,120 --> 03:18:22,400 Maybe we'll think, well, because it's over land and possessions 3104 03:18:22,400 --> 03:18:23,760 and materials. It's like, no, no, no, no. 3105 03:18:23,760 --> 03:18:27,920 It's not even that. It's the desire to control, to 3106 03:18:27,920 --> 03:18:32,040 have mine. Pride and glory, avarice, 3107 03:18:32,040 --> 03:18:32,920 passions. There we go. 3108 03:18:33,680 --> 03:18:37,400 Mine. I want it. 3109 03:18:38,040 --> 03:18:42,120 I want to be in control. I want those places to be mine, 3110 03:18:42,800 --> 03:18:46,200 be part of my Kingdom. I don't want to trade for it. 3111 03:18:48,800 --> 03:18:52,160 See, people think in order to enter into it, any kind of 3112 03:18:52,160 --> 03:18:56,840 negotiation for a trade, both sides have to be agreeable 3113 03:18:56,840 --> 03:18:59,480 before they even get into the negotiation. 3114 03:19:00,160 --> 03:19:03,560 The agreeableness has to be almost presumed, because 3115 03:19:03,800 --> 03:19:05,720 otherwise what are we doing here? 3116 03:19:07,840 --> 03:19:09,480 If you're not? If you're not interested in 3117 03:19:09,480 --> 03:19:12,160 buying what I'm selling, why am I even showing you this? 3118 03:19:12,520 --> 03:19:14,200 Because you're perusing? Because you want me to go 3119 03:19:14,200 --> 03:19:16,280 through a song and dance? Well, there's something there. 3120 03:19:18,240 --> 03:19:22,360 If my desire is to go to war with you, that's really what I 3121 03:19:22,360 --> 03:19:26,920 want, and I'm looking for reasons to. 3122 03:19:27,040 --> 03:19:28,560 Either commit or. Not commit. 3123 03:19:28,920 --> 03:19:31,120 I don't know, maybe maybe you're too strong. 3124 03:19:31,120 --> 03:19:35,000 Maybe maybe this is not going to play out for me that well, or 3125 03:19:35,000 --> 03:19:37,760 maybe there's other ways I can I can get what I want without 3126 03:19:37,760 --> 03:19:39,520 having to commit to a full at war. 3127 03:19:39,800 --> 03:19:42,840 So now we have a negotiation. A negotiation is, you know, this 3128 03:19:42,840 --> 03:19:45,760 whole trade agreement, right? Yeah, we're going to do trade. 3129 03:19:46,720 --> 03:19:50,400 What I'm really doing is I'm checking you out and you're 3130 03:19:50,400 --> 03:19:54,160 checking me out because maybe both of us want to go to war or 3131 03:19:54,160 --> 03:19:58,880 we both have that that on the on the table, but we're not too 3132 03:19:58,880 --> 03:20:00,640 sure. So we're going to do this 3133 03:20:00,640 --> 03:20:03,960 negotiation and see how. How big your? 3134 03:20:03,960 --> 03:20:07,160 Balls are of this today. How's this going to play out? 3135 03:20:08,560 --> 03:20:12,040 Can I get you to capitulate and give me what I want anyways 3136 03:20:12,400 --> 03:20:16,000 without having to go to war? Are you going to bitch out? 3137 03:20:17,920 --> 03:20:20,320 This leaves a lot of credence to what Jim Joshua keeps talking 3138 03:20:20,320 --> 03:20:24,760 about, about how, yes, Russia might be winning, let's say the 3139 03:20:24,760 --> 03:20:27,320 ground war. Now they're committing to it. 3140 03:20:27,320 --> 03:20:30,240 So they're taking territory. And if we think that winning a 3141 03:20:30,240 --> 03:20:33,400 war is taking territory, then yes, they are now winning the 3142 03:20:33,400 --> 03:20:34,840 war. They're killing the the 3143 03:20:34,840 --> 03:20:36,240 opponent. They're destroying the 3144 03:20:36,240 --> 03:20:40,680 opponent's armed forces and ability to to conduct war and 3145 03:20:40,680 --> 03:20:42,680 taking territory. Now the new big news coming out, 3146 03:20:42,680 --> 03:20:46,000 and we'll cover this next week with Jim, is Russia targeting 3147 03:20:46,600 --> 03:20:50,200 Ukrainian energy resources, taking out like, no, even the 3148 03:20:50,200 --> 03:20:53,800 Ukrainians have now had to admit the Russians have destroyed 3149 03:20:53,800 --> 03:20:58,200 something like half of their gas, gas facilities. 3150 03:20:58,200 --> 03:21:00,880 So it's going to be a very cold winter in Ukraine. 3151 03:21:00,880 --> 03:21:03,200 They're going to have to import something along the lines of, I 3152 03:21:03,200 --> 03:21:06,680 think €20 billion worth of energy. 3153 03:21:08,200 --> 03:21:10,720 Oops. This, of course, is after 3154 03:21:10,720 --> 03:21:13,880 they've been trying to target Russia, Russian gas facilities, 3155 03:21:14,720 --> 03:21:17,320 their refinery, their their refineries. 3156 03:21:21,000 --> 03:21:25,760 So now they're waging an energy war, a resource war. 3157 03:21:27,240 --> 03:21:29,600 You know, now that that's entering that phase, freeze them 3158 03:21:29,600 --> 03:21:34,120 out, starve them out. Can't kill enough. 3159 03:21:34,120 --> 03:21:35,840 Make people in the in the battlefield that's not 3160 03:21:35,840 --> 03:21:38,360 responding to you and I'll take out your civilians too. 3161 03:21:41,960 --> 03:21:44,720 If this was just about territory, the Russians would 3162 03:21:44,720 --> 03:21:48,000 have done a very different war. But it wasn't about that. 3163 03:21:48,480 --> 03:21:51,400 And Jim's has. Jim's thinking is that they 3164 03:21:51,400 --> 03:21:54,320 enter this war thinking of this conflict, thinking that there 3165 03:21:55,160 --> 03:21:58,520 was going to be some horse trading waiting for exchange, 3166 03:21:58,520 --> 03:22:02,040 you know, a negotiation. And that never really took place 3167 03:22:02,120 --> 03:22:04,520 because what the really the Russians didn't realize until a 3168 03:22:04,520 --> 03:22:08,040 little bit later is that their opponents, both the Ukrainians 3169 03:22:08,040 --> 03:22:16,440 and NATO in the West behind them are essentially suicidal and 3170 03:22:16,440 --> 03:22:20,000 want to destroy Russia completely or take it over 3171 03:22:20,000 --> 03:22:21,560 control it. They want all this stuff. 3172 03:22:21,840 --> 03:22:25,840 War was always on the table. Negotiations was just to check 3173 03:22:25,840 --> 03:22:28,360 out how committed the Russians are going to be. 3174 03:22:30,400 --> 03:22:38,440 And Putin kept offering and making making concessions. 3175 03:22:39,480 --> 03:22:43,200 He's been making concessions about NATO expansion for decades 3176 03:22:43,200 --> 03:22:46,880 now, complaints about it, but he was he's the leader of Russia 3177 03:22:46,880 --> 03:22:49,200 while this is happening now, maybe he can say, well, I 3178 03:22:49,240 --> 03:22:51,880 couldn't do much. I was here to build up his 3179 03:22:51,880 --> 03:22:54,440 civilization to be able to react to these things in a post Soviet 3180 03:22:54,440 --> 03:22:56,240 Union and Russia was in a bit of a state of affairs. 3181 03:22:56,240 --> 03:23:00,520 Sure, OK, fine. But regardless, the messaging to 3182 03:23:00,520 --> 03:23:06,320 the West is that Russia's going to roll over or not commit so 3183 03:23:06,320 --> 03:23:10,560 they so they can keep taking and take and take and take and take 3184 03:23:10,560 --> 03:23:12,680 and take. It's what they've been doing in 3185 03:23:12,680 --> 03:23:16,280 the Middle East. Putin just came out with a 3186 03:23:16,280 --> 03:23:21,320 comment about this when he's at a bricks nation with Modi on the 3187 03:23:21,320 --> 03:23:22,640 stage. Let me see if I can find it 3188 03:23:22,640 --> 03:23:37,160 here. I think I know where it is. 3189 03:23:37,960 --> 03:23:46,570 So maybe I didn't save it, unfortunately. 3190 03:23:46,770 --> 03:23:48,890 I'll try to find it for the next one. 3191 03:23:48,890 --> 03:23:50,210 Join us next week with Jim Joshua. 3192 03:23:50,210 --> 03:23:57,920 We'll cover it. But the the issue in the Middle 3193 03:23:57,920 --> 03:24:02,600 East, same thing America goes into Afghanistan, takes out 3194 03:24:02,600 --> 03:24:04,160 Afghanistan, no one says anything. 3195 03:24:04,160 --> 03:24:06,280 Take, you know, everyone's actually full fraud support 3196 03:24:06,280 --> 03:24:09,920 because of 9/11, goes in and takes out Iraq and does what 3197 03:24:09,920 --> 03:24:12,920 they did in Iraq, a little bit of complaints, but people go 3198 03:24:12,920 --> 03:24:16,040 along with it. Libya, what they did with Syria, 3199 03:24:16,280 --> 03:24:18,760 what they're doing now in Gaza, whether I think what they're 3200 03:24:18,760 --> 03:24:23,880 planning on doing in Iran, they're just taking. 3201 03:24:24,800 --> 03:24:26,880 Do you think there's negotiations for the taking? 3202 03:24:27,600 --> 03:24:29,560 Not negotiations. They're just trying to figure 3203 03:24:29,560 --> 03:24:31,280 out what you're willing to commit to. 3204 03:24:32,680 --> 03:24:33,720 So then they. Can. 3205 03:24:33,720 --> 03:24:37,600 Devise a plan to take a whole bunch of other stuff off of you. 3206 03:24:48,870 --> 03:24:54,390 War is always on the table. Violence is always the preferred 3207 03:24:54,390 --> 03:24:59,320 solution really, at least in the modern sense. 3208 03:24:59,320 --> 03:25:01,840 You know, post World War 12 and all the rest of it. 3209 03:25:02,120 --> 03:25:07,320 Because what our leadership keeps telling us in no uncertain 3210 03:25:07,320 --> 03:25:11,720 terms is they are willing to sacrifice us on mass. 3211 03:25:12,840 --> 03:25:19,720 No problem. Ukraine's continued this war. 3212 03:25:19,720 --> 03:25:20,880 Let's just read this as a report. 3213 03:25:21,680 --> 03:25:24,440 Russia strikes in recent days have wiped out more than half of 3214 03:25:24,440 --> 03:25:28,120 Ukraine's domestic natural gas production, likely fit forcing 3215 03:25:28,120 --> 03:25:31,920 the war battered country to spend 1.9 billion EUR 2.2 3216 03:25:31,920 --> 03:25:35,040 billion on fuel imports, just five this looming winter. 3217 03:25:35,480 --> 03:25:41,560 Keep in mind that Ukraine was, you know, Europe has had to 3218 03:25:41,720 --> 03:25:48,440 secretly buy Russian oil and gas through other means, through, 3219 03:25:48,520 --> 03:25:51,840 you know, other other markets. They just said they made the big 3220 03:25:51,840 --> 03:25:53,360 declaration, we're not going to buy this anymore. 3221 03:25:53,360 --> 03:25:54,400 We're not going to support Russia. 3222 03:25:55,840 --> 03:25:58,520 Yeah, cool, awesome, cool story. Here's your problem is that 3223 03:25:58,520 --> 03:26:01,440 you're just still dependent upon it because you, the American 3224 03:26:02,160 --> 03:26:05,080 product doesn't always work with a lot of European equipment and 3225 03:26:05,080 --> 03:26:07,240 also has to travel a long ways. And America doesn't have enough 3226 03:26:07,240 --> 03:26:11,080 to supply you and America after after a few years of doing this. 3227 03:26:11,400 --> 03:26:14,600 So now Germany's in is in the absolute shits. 3228 03:26:15,120 --> 03:26:18,760 Excuse me, because they're finally waking up to the 3229 03:26:18,760 --> 03:26:21,560 realization that, oops, we kind of need energy to keep this 3230 03:26:21,560 --> 03:26:27,200 whole thing going, and with high energy costs, it just leads to 3231 03:26:27,200 --> 03:26:31,640 high everything else. And the German economy continues 3232 03:26:31,640 --> 03:26:38,520 to sink down that hole. Kiev told his allies early this 3233 03:26:38,520 --> 03:26:41,920 week that a massive Russian barrage targeting the Kharkiv in 3234 03:26:42,200 --> 03:26:45,640 Palatova regions on October 3rd took out roughly 60% of the 3235 03:26:45,640 --> 03:26:47,920 country's gas production, according to people with 3236 03:26:47,920 --> 03:26:50,960 knowledge of the matter. They requested anonymity because 3237 03:26:50,960 --> 03:26:53,960 discussions are private. Russia's gas infrastructure, 3238 03:26:53,960 --> 03:26:56,360 able to meet domestic demand before the Russian full scale 3239 03:26:56,360 --> 03:26:59,000 invasion, has come under increasingly intensive missile 3240 03:26:59,000 --> 03:27:00,920 and drone strikes since the beginning of this year. 3241 03:27:01,480 --> 03:27:04,000 If the strikes continue, Ukraine expects it will need to buy 3242 03:27:04,000 --> 03:27:08,760 roughly 4.4 billion cubic meters of gas by the end of March at a 3243 03:27:08,760 --> 03:27:11,520 cost of nearly €2 billion, according to people familiar 3244 03:27:11,520 --> 03:27:13,480 with the details. That's the equivalent of nearly 3245 03:27:13,480 --> 03:27:16,800 20% of Ukraine's net annual consumption. 3246 03:27:19,840 --> 03:27:22,040 You know, which is leading to Zelensky saying I he would vote 3247 03:27:22,320 --> 03:27:24,640 for Trump getting the Nobel Peace Prize if Trump sends him 3248 03:27:24,640 --> 03:27:28,560 to those Tomahawk missiles, presumably to, I don't know, do 3249 03:27:30,040 --> 03:27:32,800 persuade Russia violently to stop doing what Russia's doing 3250 03:27:32,800 --> 03:27:40,040 anyways. They're they're aft completely 3251 03:27:40,040 --> 03:27:45,560 and totally damn. Because all the Tomahawk 3252 03:27:45,560 --> 03:27:48,320 missiles in the world isn't going to secure you more gas to 3253 03:27:48,320 --> 03:27:49,120 survive. The Winter. 3254 03:27:50,960 --> 03:27:52,480 So people are going to, people are going to freeze, you're 3255 03:27:52,880 --> 03:27:56,120 going to starve. They're going to freeze not just 3256 03:27:56,120 --> 03:27:58,840 in Ukraine, but in Germany and many places in Europe too. 3257 03:28:01,400 --> 03:28:07,160 Oops. So even if you're saying that 3258 03:28:07,160 --> 03:28:13,280 these people are the rulers, they're the guys who are, you 3259 03:28:13,280 --> 03:28:17,320 know, the. Puppet. 3260 03:28:17,320 --> 03:28:20,520 Masters, but they're not free of consequence. 3261 03:28:21,040 --> 03:28:23,160 You can try to tell me this is part of a plan all you want. 3262 03:28:23,160 --> 03:28:26,280 I don't believe it is. I don't think it's the Israeli 3263 03:28:26,280 --> 03:28:27,960 plan for planes. But you've fallen out of the 3264 03:28:27,960 --> 03:28:29,640 sky. I don't think it's the Israeli 3265 03:28:29,640 --> 03:28:32,840 plan to have a competency crisis so bad, a demographic collapse 3266 03:28:32,840 --> 03:28:35,520 so bad that, you know, a critical infrastructure like, 3267 03:28:35,520 --> 03:28:38,400 you know, nuclear facilities and all the rest of it are in risk 3268 03:28:38,400 --> 03:28:40,960 of just blowing up because they don't have security protocols 3269 03:28:40,960 --> 03:28:42,760 anymore. Anyone who knows how to man 3270 03:28:42,760 --> 03:28:51,160 them, they might say, well, you know, it's a Malthusian plan to 3271 03:28:51,160 --> 03:28:53,440 eradicate most of the world's population and then they're 3272 03:28:53,440 --> 03:28:54,880 going to control these resources. 3273 03:28:55,080 --> 03:28:58,760 Cool story. I'm, you know, it sounds very 3274 03:28:58,760 --> 03:29:04,760 convincing, but it would require a machine robot army in order to 3275 03:29:04,760 --> 03:29:06,800 replace all the humans. They go, well, that's what 3276 03:29:06,800 --> 03:29:10,160 they're developing and say, OK, again, cool story, but what if 3277 03:29:10,160 --> 03:29:15,600 the robots break? Oops. 3278 03:29:17,200 --> 03:29:20,440 What if a solar flare comes and wipes out the electrical grid? 3279 03:29:20,760 --> 03:29:23,520 Or, you know, things break and you've you've gotten rid of all 3280 03:29:23,520 --> 03:29:26,840 you know, we saw this with kulak, the de kulakization in 3281 03:29:26,840 --> 03:29:29,360 the Soviet Union. You get rid of all these kulaks, 3282 03:29:29,360 --> 03:29:30,800 you say, well, they have too many farm. 3283 03:29:30,800 --> 03:29:34,640 There's they've benefited too much off the old, off the old 3284 03:29:34,640 --> 03:29:35,800 system. We're going to get rid of them 3285 03:29:35,800 --> 03:29:37,880 and disperse their goods amongst the other people. 3286 03:29:38,520 --> 03:29:40,800 But you, what you don't realize is all of those kulaks were also 3287 03:29:40,800 --> 03:29:44,360 really good at farming. So you get rid of the good 3288 03:29:44,360 --> 03:29:47,240 farmers, the successful people, the people who have actual 3289 03:29:47,240 --> 03:29:48,760 knowledge. You just get rid of them or send 3290 03:29:48,760 --> 03:29:50,400 them off to the gulags. You take them out of the system 3291 03:29:50,600 --> 03:29:52,120 and all of a sudden everyone starves to death. 3292 03:29:53,040 --> 03:29:58,040 Oops. Damn. 3293 03:30:09,600 --> 03:30:14,360 Why would this happen again? Who's influencing the 3294 03:30:14,360 --> 03:30:15,960 influencers? Where are these ideas coming 3295 03:30:15,960 --> 03:30:20,360 from? Well, not from us. 3296 03:30:21,680 --> 03:30:24,760 Not reasonable. You take the even the most like 3297 03:30:24,960 --> 03:30:26,760 where does even even this evil come from? 3298 03:30:27,040 --> 03:30:31,560 This desire to. Control this stuff Culiana 3299 03:30:31,560 --> 03:30:34,640 Kasparian Yes, yes. We're going to control 3300 03:30:34,640 --> 03:30:36,680 everybody. We're going to make you moral. 3301 03:30:36,680 --> 03:30:39,760 We're going to make you good, just like us. 3302 03:30:41,520 --> 03:30:42,840 Except we're not very good, are we? 3303 03:30:42,840 --> 03:30:54,760 Or we're going to kill liquidate whole entire populations and 3304 03:30:54,760 --> 03:30:57,240 then just deal with the results afterwards? 3305 03:30:59,080 --> 03:31:02,680 It's not reasonable logical. Forget good. 3306 03:31:03,120 --> 03:31:10,480 Just on a game plan level this is dumb and we have evidence of 3307 03:31:10,480 --> 03:31:13,360 why it doesn't work. But you can convince yourself 3308 03:31:13,360 --> 03:31:15,720 while the Soviets it didn't work as the Soviet Union because 3309 03:31:15,720 --> 03:31:20,160 those damn dumb Russians. We'll do it better this time 3310 03:31:22,240 --> 03:31:31,320 maybe, but what rules this world at the end of the day we'll get 3311 03:31:31,320 --> 03:31:41,200 to it. 4 hours in is resentment. That's the ruler of this of the 3312 03:31:41,680 --> 03:31:47,800 world that we live in resentment, resentment to God 3313 03:31:47,800 --> 03:31:52,000 for existing. Jordan Peterson quote, not all 3314 03:31:52,000 --> 03:31:56,480 about that guy. And we see it in the left, we 3315 03:31:56,480 --> 03:31:58,000 see in the progressives, we see in the blued. 3316 03:31:58,000 --> 03:31:59,600 Haired. Antifa ties. 3317 03:31:59,600 --> 03:32:04,200 We see it in those, let's say, civilizational terrorists. 3318 03:32:04,200 --> 03:32:07,680 Sure, but it's in all of us to a degree. 3319 03:32:07,880 --> 03:32:15,040 If you've ever blamed your, blamed your parents, ever got 3320 03:32:15,040 --> 03:32:19,280 rueful, ever said why? Why me, Elon? 3321 03:32:19,280 --> 03:32:20,280 Why? Why me God? 3322 03:32:20,360 --> 03:32:24,160 Why not you? Why wouldn't it be you? 3323 03:32:24,160 --> 03:32:30,360 What have you done to prevent it from being you, Silly Billy? 3324 03:32:34,680 --> 03:32:38,160 There's an old quote, too. You get the Jews you deserve. 3325 03:32:41,960 --> 03:32:44,320 You get the Barbarians, too, and the consequences. 3326 03:32:44,760 --> 03:32:48,920 It's all on us all the time. It's the things that people want 3327 03:32:48,920 --> 03:32:52,200 to hear. I don't want to hear it either, 3328 03:32:54,600 --> 03:32:57,960 but it is ultimately our responsibility. 3329 03:33:00,040 --> 03:33:04,080 It's the cross that we bear this time, this place, the 3330 03:33:04,080 --> 03:33:07,280 consequences of past decisions that we've inherited, and the 3331 03:33:07,360 --> 03:33:10,240 consequences of our own decisions that we've carried 3332 03:33:10,240 --> 03:33:18,960 forward. So what do we do? 3333 03:33:18,960 --> 03:33:22,360 Going to say it again one last time. 3334 03:33:23,840 --> 03:33:29,320 Model the prodigal son. Return, repent, rebuild, or 3335 03:33:29,320 --> 03:33:32,800 redeem if you prefer. Why? 3336 03:33:32,800 --> 03:33:37,480 The one thing you're going to find in liturgy is you're going 3337 03:33:37,480 --> 03:33:40,000 to find fellowship. There's faith and fellowship. 3338 03:33:41,160 --> 03:33:43,840 This community of people who are doing the same thing that you're 3339 03:33:43,840 --> 03:33:46,440 doing, they're all going to the same hospital with with a. 3340 03:33:46,440 --> 03:33:48,880 Similar illness. Maybe different manifestations 3341 03:33:48,880 --> 03:33:50,600 of the illness, but the illness is spiritual. 3342 03:33:50,880 --> 03:33:53,200 We're all going to the same hospital, both the priest and 3343 03:33:53,200 --> 03:33:56,920 the and the parishioners, and seeking divine assistance. 3344 03:33:57,200 --> 03:34:01,440 You're doing this hard thing together, conjoined with a 3345 03:34:01,440 --> 03:34:04,600 purpose. You're sharing something. 3346 03:34:04,600 --> 03:34:07,800 You're in communion both with God and each other. 3347 03:34:09,560 --> 03:34:20,520 Now you have a base, you have something they don't, and it's 3348 03:34:20,720 --> 03:34:23,120 free. They put some money in the 3349 03:34:23,280 --> 03:34:26,680 candle box and fight when you can as well. 3350 03:34:28,880 --> 03:34:31,400 But the other stuff, it's all free. 3351 03:34:33,080 --> 03:34:38,960 Just go. Come and see, and suddenly 3352 03:34:38,960 --> 03:34:42,680 you're going to have something that all the enemies and all the 3353 03:34:42,680 --> 03:34:44,760 people you're going to blame am I say, who are the rules of this 3354 03:34:44,760 --> 03:34:46,560 world? And you think of that list of 3355 03:34:46,560 --> 03:34:49,400 people and you run that on a list and you go, what do they 3356 03:34:49,400 --> 03:34:53,920 have that I don't have? That's easy one, right? 3357 03:34:53,920 --> 03:34:57,600 Well, power, influence, power control, evil designs, etcetera. 3358 03:34:57,600 --> 03:34:59,600 Sure. Then the question is, what do I 3359 03:34:59,600 --> 03:35:07,440 have that they don't have? There's your exposure, there's 3360 03:35:07,440 --> 03:35:09,560 your risk. That's what's dangling. 3361 03:35:09,560 --> 03:35:13,680 There's the question to answer for yourself and for others. 3362 03:35:17,280 --> 03:35:23,320 If you want authority, you want power, you want control, you 3363 03:35:23,320 --> 03:35:26,920 want to be able to do something, you want righteousness, you want 3364 03:35:27,280 --> 03:35:31,520 justice. When you first have to have a 3365 03:35:31,520 --> 03:35:34,400 thing that they don't have, they have all the mechanisms. 3366 03:35:34,400 --> 03:35:37,920 They got you. They got us tied up pretty 3367 03:35:37,920 --> 03:35:45,280 tight. It's hard flesh cries out. 3368 03:35:46,800 --> 03:35:50,400 They know the leverage. They know what they can do to 3369 03:35:50,400 --> 03:35:53,440 you and they can make you afraid of make you afraid of what they 3370 03:35:53,440 --> 03:35:57,200 could do to you. Did you demonstrated that during 3371 03:35:57,920 --> 03:36:02,040 during the long flu? More. 3372 03:36:02,040 --> 03:36:07,400 Stuff coming down the Pike, but we have eyes to see, ears to 3373 03:36:07,400 --> 03:36:18,360 hear, and if we focus on faith and fellowship, communion and 3374 03:36:18,360 --> 03:36:24,000 community and not just some ideological Community Center and 3375 03:36:24,000 --> 03:36:25,720 all that stuff, No, no, no, no. I'm talking about people 3376 03:36:25,720 --> 03:36:30,120 conjoined together with a purpose, and the purpose isn't 3377 03:36:30,120 --> 03:36:33,280 to change the world or make it better, but the purpose is to 3378 03:36:33,280 --> 03:36:40,120 bear it, to bear witness, to give testimony, and to bear our 3379 03:36:40,120 --> 03:36:41,680 cross. Together. 3380 03:36:42,600 --> 03:36:52,980 To lighten the load to submit to an authority that isn't them. 3381 03:36:56,460 --> 03:37:01,240 They have no authority here. We're giving it to someone else. 3382 03:37:04,080 --> 03:37:08,840 They're giving it to God. The reason they're persecuting 3383 03:37:08,840 --> 03:37:10,640 churches and they're persecuting Christianity. 3384 03:37:10,880 --> 03:37:13,240 Nigeria and other places while they're going after Christianity 3385 03:37:13,240 --> 03:37:15,320 in the, in the in Europe, while they're burning down churches, 3386 03:37:15,320 --> 03:37:17,200 all the rest of it. They're not doing that to 3387 03:37:17,200 --> 03:37:18,400 mosques, they're not doing that to temples. 3388 03:37:18,400 --> 03:37:20,000 They're not doing that to other to other denominations. 3389 03:37:20,000 --> 03:37:21,200 They're not doing to Hindu temples. 3390 03:37:21,200 --> 03:37:22,240 They're not doing to Buddhist temples. 3391 03:37:22,240 --> 03:37:23,640 No, no, no, no, no. They're going after 3392 03:37:23,640 --> 03:37:24,760 Christianity. Why? 3393 03:37:24,760 --> 03:37:27,680 Well, it's not just a white man's religion. 3394 03:37:30,400 --> 03:37:36,400 Explain Nigeria then. They're going after the truth. 3395 03:37:45,260 --> 03:37:48,780 That's the attack. They're going after the thing 3396 03:37:48,780 --> 03:37:51,780 that they don't have. They have no access to it. 3397 03:37:52,620 --> 03:37:55,020 They could, they could be like Saint Mary of Egypt. 3398 03:37:55,500 --> 03:38:01,020 Get humble, realize you're wrong, Make a sacrifice, repent. 3399 03:38:01,720 --> 03:38:04,040 And for many of them, that would mean removing themselves from 3400 03:38:04,040 --> 03:38:05,920 the game entirely. The game. 3401 03:38:07,960 --> 03:38:09,760 But they can't do that. They don't want to do that. 3402 03:38:11,080 --> 03:38:12,720 In many cases, I think they can't do that. 3403 03:38:12,720 --> 03:38:21,280 They're so infected, so attached to the flesh would be 3404 03:38:21,280 --> 03:38:25,280 inconceivable. But they know it's real. 3405 03:38:25,480 --> 03:38:28,360 They know it exists in the world, they see evidence of it, 3406 03:38:28,560 --> 03:38:33,120 and that's the thing they must destroy or subvert or denigrate 3407 03:38:33,120 --> 03:38:39,240 in some form. And so all the pressures of the 3408 03:38:39,240 --> 03:38:43,320 world will come down upon you, and then you'll be given every 3409 03:38:43,320 --> 03:38:49,560 reason in the world to quit. But we don't quit. 3410 03:38:50,480 --> 03:38:53,280 We don't give up. We don't back down. 3411 03:38:56,080 --> 03:39:03,520 We stand, we fight, we pray, we submit to the true authority 3412 03:39:06,520 --> 03:39:10,160 because while you and I may never be the rulers of this 3413 03:39:10,160 --> 03:39:14,200 world, we can be on the team that wins out in the end. 3414 03:39:18,040 --> 03:39:19,800 I'll leave you with that. God bless you everyone. 3415 03:39:20,000 --> 03:39:24,000 Thank you for watching the show. Like subscribe, share, do all 3416 03:39:24,000 --> 03:39:26,800 the things, support in any way which way you can. 3417 03:39:27,480 --> 03:39:28,880 I appreciate each and every one of you. 3418 03:39:30,280 --> 03:39:33,840 And we'll be back next week. I'll see if I can fit something 3419 03:39:33,840 --> 03:39:37,840 in maybe tomorrow or maybe we'll do some membership gameplay or 3420 03:39:37,840 --> 03:39:40,720 some of that. But either way, I will be back 3421 03:39:40,720 --> 03:39:44,240 next week, certainly with Jim Jotris and there's some of their 3422 03:39:44,240 --> 03:39:46,560 plans afoot. So keep checking us, follow me 3423 03:39:46,560 --> 03:39:52,160 on next on the places and keep keep advised of any, any new 3424 03:39:52,160 --> 03:39:56,640 show stuff coming down the Pike. And I appreciate and love you 3425 03:39:56,640 --> 03:40:00,040 all. I'm Jason Merenchuk, and it's 3426 03:40:00,040 --> 03:40:03,280 later than you think. This is the church. 3427 03:40:03,280 --> 03:40:05,960 Richard and his. Family belong to here. 3428 03:40:05,960 --> 03:40:09,640 He goes to Sunday school. There are other churches in town 3429 03:40:09,640 --> 03:40:11,640 for people who worship in ways different. 3430 03:40:11,640 --> 03:40:14,440 From. Richard's family, Millwood has a 3431 03:40:14,440 --> 03:40:18,280 radio and television station. The programs come from this 3432 03:40:18,280 --> 03:40:21,400 building. Many people, they are the men 3433 03:40:21,400 --> 03:40:23,560 and women who act on these programs. 3434 03:40:24,640 --> 03:40:28,160 Some men operate the big television cameras, Others. 3435 03:40:28,160 --> 03:40:29,840 Control. The pictures as they go. 3436 03:40:29,840 --> 03:40:33,280 Out over the air. They see to it that Richard gets 3437 03:40:33,280 --> 03:40:35,440 the right program at the right time. 3438 03:40:36,480 --> 03:40:38,360 He often watches television at home. 3439 03:40:39,000 --> 03:40:42,120 The programs are fun, and sometimes he learns a great deal 3440 03:40:42,120 --> 03:40:45,320 from them. Then there are the movies. 3441 03:40:45,600 --> 03:40:48,040 The Andersons go off into the neighborhood theater. 3442 03:40:49,400 --> 03:40:51,920 One evening every. Week Richard's father goes 3443 03:40:51,920 --> 03:40:54,360 bullying. He belongs to a bowling league 3444 03:40:54,360 --> 03:40:55,600 with some. Of his friends. 3445 03:40:56,000 --> 03:40:58,240 That's his favorite evening recreation. 3446 03:41:02,120 --> 03:41:06,000 At night, when Richard goes to bed, he may have thought very 3447 03:41:06,000 --> 03:41:10,160 little about his community, what he has done for it and what it 3448 03:41:10,160 --> 03:41:10,920 has done for. Him. 3449 03:41:12,080 --> 03:41:14,400 But the community's work never stops. 3450 03:41:15,160 --> 03:41:17,760 There's bread to be baked, bread which Richard. 3451 03:41:17,760 --> 03:41:20,240 Will eat. Tomorrow there's milk to be 3452 03:41:20,240 --> 03:41:22,680 processed, milk which Richard will drink. 3453 03:41:22,680 --> 03:41:25,000 Tomorrow there's the newspaper to be. 3454 03:41:25,000 --> 03:41:25,800 Printed. For people. 3455 03:41:25,800 --> 03:41:30,080 To read in the morning and electricity to be made and water 3456 03:41:30,080 --> 03:41:33,040 to be pumped and filtered and telephone calls to be. 3457 03:41:33,040 --> 03:41:34,240 Put through. Day and night. 3458 03:41:35,480 --> 03:41:39,480 So the work in Richard's community goes on day after day, 3459 03:41:39,880 --> 03:41:43,480 night after night, People working for each other, 3460 03:41:43,800 --> 03:41:47,560 depending on each other, all of them partners in. 3461 03:41:47,560 --> 03:41:48,400 Making. Their. 3462 03:41:48,400 --> 03:41:51,320 Community a better place in which to live. 3463 03:41:59,920 --> 03:42:02,080 There is nothing wrong with your television set. 3464 03:42:03,160 --> 03:42:04,880 Do not attempt to adjust the picture. 3465 03:42:49,590 --> 03:42:49,670 The.
