In this episode, I discuss President Obama's remarks at the President's Prayer Breakfast about Christians and Islamic terrorist groups and how they are on the same moral ground as each other. I don't think there is a moral equivalency between Christians and ISIS.

00:00:02.000 So today, President Obama spoke at the presidential prayer breakfast.
00:00:06.000 He had a lot to say.
00:00:07.000 We see ISA, a brutal, vicious death cult that, in the name of religion, carries out unspeakable acts of barbarism. 0.95
00:00:18.000 And lest we get on our high horse, lest we get on our high horse, please, please do get on your high horse when it comes to ISIS, America.
00:00:28.000 Not only America, whole world.
00:00:30.000 If this doesn't warrant a moral high horse, nothing does.
00:00:35.000 Anyone could get on a moral high horse.
00:00:38.000 Of ISIS, ISIL, whatever it is he wants to tell you.
00:00:41.000 Jeffrey Dahmer, the B2K killers, Carla Homolka, could get on their high horse when speaking to ISIS. And I'd say, yeah, I can see it. 0.51
00:00:51.000 Remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ.
00:00:58.000 Okay, a couple of things.
00:00:59.000 Not all Christians are perfect.
00:01:02.000 We've talked about this.
00:01:02.000 Jesus was.
00:01:04.000 According to the historical context, whether you believe in the Judeo-Christian God or not, not every Muslim is a terrorist.
00:01:11.000 Of course not.
00:01:12.000 Muhammad was.
00:01:13.000 Different starting off point, a little bit.
00:01:18.000 And secondly, to equate the Inquisition, which is terrible, unacceptable, to the retaliatory action of the Crusades is something that people do a lot.
00:01:26.000 They conflate it.
00:01:27.000 Removing historical context, I hate that.
00:01:30.000 But creating a moral equivalency between the Christians of today and ISIS is unreal.
00:01:38.000 Is this real life?
00:01:40.000 It's not unique to one group or one religion.
00:01:44.000 Yes, it is.
00:01:45.000 It is entirely unique to one religion, and specifically right now, one very powerful group in ISIS. It is 100%, statistically nearly 100, as close as you can get to 100 without being 100% unique.
00:02:02.000 It's opposite day.
00:02:03.000 I believe that the starting point of faith is some doubt.
00:02:09.000 Not being so full of yourself and so confident That you are right and that God speaks only to us and doesn't speak to others.
00:02:24.000 That God only cares about us and doesn't care about others.
00:02:27.000 That somehow we alone are in possession of the truth.
00:02:38.000 I don't even understand what he's trying to say here.
00:02:40.000 Like, did he drink a bucket of salt water and he sneak into Joe Biden's medication?
00:02:44.000 I don't...
00:02:46.000 Okay, if you believe in a God, and you believe that God wants to communicate with his people, you would have to believe that he is only approving of one's group Of actions.
00:03:02.000 And disapproving of another.
00:03:04.000 This moral equivalency of, we shouldn't believe that God speaks to us in not burning people alive.
00:03:12.000 And then he just maybe, we're going to say what?
00:03:14.000 He doesn't speak to ISIS? Like he's not telling them, go burn them a lot? 0.98
00:03:17.000 I don't understand what he's saying here.
00:03:19.000 It doesn't make any sense.
00:03:21.000 The overarching principle that he's going with is trying to create a moral equivalency between, namely Christians, he invokes Christ a lot, but everyone else in Islam. 0.54
00:03:34.000 But let's go with his premise, Christians. 0.93
00:03:39.000 Sure, there are some Christians out there who don't believe in gay marriage.
00:03:45.000 Granted, there are even some who support Chick-fil-A. ISIS does this to equate what Christians in America believe or do with the actions of ISIS or Islamic terrorist groups.
00:04:03.000 And I've never said this before about Barack Obama, but I don't believe he's an ignorant person.
00:04:07.000 I don't believe he's a stupid person.
00:04:08.000 But to equate the two is downright evil or it paves the way for incredible evil.
00:04:17.000 If he actually believes that there is a moral equivalency between buying your coffee at Chick-fil-A because you like where the owner stands, or writing in a ballot saying, hey, I think a marriage should be a man, woman, and child, or saying, hey, I don't think you should be able to abort a baby past the third trimester.
00:04:35.000 If he believes that that is on the same moral ground, lest you get on your high horse, as ISIS... That's evil.
00:04:47.000 And that's the first time I've said that.
00:04:50.000 It's incredible.
00:04:50.000 This is incredible.
00:04:51.000 You really should watch the whole video.
