00:02:14.000 And for joining us today, we have a very special guest, a man who I greatly admire and whose worldview is basically more cogent than anybody I've ever encountered, with the exception of Raphael Johnson. So we have Jay Dyer, jaysanalysis.com. Thanks, Jay, for joining us.
00:02:32.000 Thank you. Glad to be here.
00:02:36.000 Well, it's, it's really, I'm not exaggerating. It's an honor and a pleasure. I'm a very big fan of your work. And, you know, I would suggest that all of our listeners go out and purchase a subscription because it's really definitely worth the money. Joining me. Oh, sorry. Go ahead.
00:02:52.000 Thank you. Yeah. There will be more philosophy this year. I know that we took the detour into tragedy and hope. But, you know, before that, we were doing Plato. So next there's going to be, I think I'm going to do Marcus Aurelius's meditations will be the next thing I cover.
00:03:08.180 Fantastic. Yeah. The tragedy. I listen to every episode of the tragedy and hope. And I think it's, it's actually absolutely essential just to kind of get a big picture of you. Joining me as co-hosts, I've have Grieva Hans. Thank you, Grieva.
00:03:23.480 Yeah, it's good to be here.
00:03:25.140 And once again, after a little bit of a hiatus, I have Spies. Thank you, Spies.
00:03:30.200 Good to be here. It's good to be on with you, Jay. Big fan.
00:03:33.580 Excellent. So we got a couple of different topics that we want to talk about. I mean, Jay, your area of expertise is so broad and comprehensive that there's so many different things that we could make an entire episode just talking to you about.
00:03:52.600 So I've kind of picked out a few different things, which I think will be useful to discuss. And the first one I think maybe we ought to go into is, you know, esoteric Hollywood.
00:04:02.720 So you, you've just released your new book, esoteric Hollywood. So do you want to talk about, you know, kind of in a little pithy pitch as to what's going on with that?
00:04:14.380 Yeah, sure. I, I like movies and I've always liked movies and I wanted to do comedy. And that's what I always, I always thought I would end up doing when I was younger because I was very active in theater and all that kind of stuff.
00:04:30.500 And then as you get older and you learn more about the world, you realize that, oh, you know, you're like a white dude. You're not really welcome in that world.
00:04:39.000 Unless you pretend to be like a total Democratic Party operative or something.
00:04:46.640 So I kind of, I kind of lost the fervor and zeal that I had for, you know, doing something in terms of, of theater and the arts.
00:04:56.940 So I just went the route of philosophy in college and, and theology. I was, I started at Bible college for a while and then I decided that the Baptist faith was retarded and stupid.
00:05:07.640 So I got into, and got into for a long time, uh, Catholicism and Thomism and then all that kind of stuff.
00:05:17.080 And then over the, over the years made my way gradually towards the Orthodox theology and traditional Orthodox thought.
00:05:25.440 And, uh, but all throughout that period, even when I was getting into conspiracy related stuff, when I was like 18 or 19, I was still interested in films, still interested in movies.
00:05:37.120 And it just kind of was a side hobby.
00:05:38.960 So I guess the irony is that even though most of my time and attention and focus was on philosophy and, you know, undergrad and grad school and reading all these guys and going to debates.
00:05:50.920 And I mean, I literally would drive across the country and, you know, go, go hear guys debate theism and atheism and Darwinism and evolution and anything that, that was interesting.
00:06:01.900 And, but I ended up, I never would have thought that the book that I would end up writing would be a book on movies.
00:06:08.260 So the first book that I, and I hopefully eventually I'll have, you know, books on philosophy and metaphysics and things like that too.
00:06:15.580 That's at least my plan, but it just so happened that the first book ended up being movie related.
00:06:21.700 So yeah, I did, um, over the last six or seven years, I just, as a, as a side project, you know, I was like throwing up movie analyses for fun.
00:06:32.040 And I'd read a lot of Michael Hoffman stuff over the years and, uh, you know, the author of secret societies and psychological warfare and Judaism discovered and many other, many other books.
00:06:43.520 And so Hoffman had this analysis of, um, conspiracy theory with Mel Gibson a long time ago.
00:06:51.920 It's been on the internet since the late nineties.
00:06:54.300 And I always thought it was a neat approach to movies.
00:06:57.480 And then when I was in my undergrad and I was taking, uh, some film classes, Hollywood history classes and stuff like that, I realized that actually there's a lot of conspiracy in film.
00:07:09.040 So it just treats of that topic in general and it covers kind of your major directors like, um, Hitchcock and Spielberg and Kubrick and some David Lynch as well.
00:07:21.980 And although it may, might seem totally unrelated to the types of subjects that we cover, actually, I don't think that it is.
00:07:31.520 I mean, for example, I just did a talk on Sarah from Rose's book, Orthodoxy and the Religion of the Future.
00:07:37.260 And there's quite a few places in that book where HG Wells and Spielberg and all this kind of stuff comes up.
00:07:45.180 So I don't think that they're all unrelated topics.
00:07:49.000 I'm a kind of a holistic thinker.
00:07:50.840 So I tend to see things big picture and how everything interrelates and try to integrate things.
00:07:55.980 So what this book is, is just maybe a collection of several years of my thought about and reflection on movies that maybe I'd grown up with.
00:08:05.820 Everybody's grown up with if you grew up in the 80s, especially.
00:08:09.500 So there's a lot of, you know, Spielberg 80s stuff.
00:08:12.100 There's E.T. and like Labyrinth and Ridley Scott movies, Blade Runner, that kind of stuff.
00:08:19.360 So if you like the art of filmmaking, I do think it's an art that I find fascinating.
00:08:25.980 Then this is a good book.
00:08:28.220 It's a book that deals with geopolitics.
00:08:31.340 It deals with the esoteric.
00:08:32.500 It deals with philosophical concepts, ancient philosophy, Platonism, and how all of that relates to modern, I guess you would say, preeminent directors, right?
00:08:45.180 So, yeah, it's 363 pages, and it's over 50 or 60 sidebars, which makes it over 400 pages.
00:08:54.920 So pretty well sourced.
00:08:56.840 And, yeah, so it's been out about a month, and I've had, I think, except for one gothic feminist who hated the book and obviously didn't read it because she said in her review on Amazon that I don't believe any book that tells you that we're all run by alien overlords.
00:09:15.460 Hmm.
00:09:16.820 Hmm.
00:09:17.580 What Lauren tweet?
00:09:18.280 I spent about 30 pages arguing against the existence of aliens, so she obviously didn't read the book.
00:09:26.260 Well, you know, that's a very valuable critique, I can tell.
00:09:30.600 Yeah, but the other 20 or 30 reviews on Amazon and Goodreads are all five stars, so the reception has been great, and, you know, if you're a movie nerd like me, and you like philosophy, and you like conspiracy, and you like, you know, any of these other topics, cults, intelligence agencies, blah, blah, blah, this is the book for you.
00:09:51.460 Oh, that's fantastic.
00:09:54.460 Yeah, that's one of the things that I think I actually found out about you through my friend Spice here.
00:10:00.120 He introduced me to your work.
00:10:01.760 But I had first, I kind of come, you know, I came into this background where I'm, what I'm doing now, actually much like a similar way that you did.
00:10:10.460 Like I was into conspiracy a lot in my youth through my father, and so I had heard you and Pharrell.
00:10:17.680 Oh, yeah.
00:10:18.200 Like, Honduras podcast, Caravan to Midnight, that kind of stuff, and I had, I actually, I came out of the same thing, you know, Catholicism, traditional Catholicism to orthodoxy.
00:10:28.180 So I'm in a similar position, like, and I perfectly understand, and that's what really why we wanted to get you on is because you and Dr. Raphael Johnson, who we've had on several times on the show, have, you know, the most holistic, the most cogent, like, narratives and worldview.
00:10:44.280 And one of my favorite quotes from Dr. Johnson is that if it doesn't make sense, it's not true.
00:10:50.560 Yes, I would totally agree with that.
00:10:52.680 Yeah, and that's the thing is there are very few, especially, we're going to get into this a little bit later on, but especially in, like, the alt-right or the far right, there are very few people who actually seem to examine every single piece of the picture as far as worldview goes.
00:11:06.500 And so many times there will be these kind of, like, glaring fields of omission that they will just refuse to interact with.
00:11:12.660 Conspiracy is a big one.
00:11:14.880 It might have been you on red ice after the Texas shooting had happened, and you were critiquing kind of the alt-right's kind of blind acceptance of the mainstream media narrative of what had occurred.
00:11:27.060 Right, which they tend to do quite often, and that's been my consistent critique of the alt-right, yes.
00:11:32.620 Right, and that's something that we're sensitive to, and we've actually – several of the panelists here have been harshly critiqued on various, like, forums and things in the past because for that very reason, you know, we questioned the mainstream media narrative and said, you know, look, guys, just because it's useful to you doesn't mean it's true.
00:11:50.380 Exactly. Yeah, in fact, I'm not at all pro-Islam, but I saw, I think, Breitbart or one of the right-wing alt-right sites – I forgot what it was.
00:12:03.460 They were posting images of supposed riots by Muslims in Germany for, like, Oktoberfest or something.
00:12:11.220 I forgot what it was.
00:12:12.700 It wasn't even riots.
00:12:13.680 It was, like, people shooting firecrackers, and one firework hit almost, dude.
00:12:18.080 Now, so that's not true, right?
00:12:21.400 But I'm also not going to admit that Merkel isn't, you know, intentionally wanting to bring in a totally different culture of –
00:12:31.320 Right, I mean, it's attempting to genocide the German people, right.
00:12:34.500 Yeah, and I talk about this constantly, so I don't understand why people have such a hard time figuring this out.
00:12:41.000 It's not – I mean, Kelly Greenhill, I've posted her paper many times that talks about weaponized migration, right?
00:12:50.900 So the consistent left, I guess you might call it, maybe the Cybele Edmonds types or these kinds of people, you know,
00:12:59.700 they'll talk all day about things like, you know, the Syrian people have a right to their nationality and heritage, and I would agree with that.
00:13:11.240 And I agree that the war in Syria is wrong.
00:13:14.700 And then they'll turn around, though, but they won't allow that for me.
00:13:18.600 Like, I'm not allowed to have my passage.
00:13:21.440 Well, you're a white man.
00:13:23.640 Right, this is the hypocrisy of that kind of an anti-war left that's left.
00:13:33.340 You know, the anti-war left kind of went underground the whole time that Obama was there with left cover, right, bombing other countries and so forth.
00:13:41.300 And then suddenly now that Trump's here, oh, the anti-war left reemerges from under the rocks, right, where have they been?
00:13:50.700 But anyway, that's a totally different topic.
00:13:56.240 Yeah, no, I mean, we could probably get into any tangents and just follow them all day, but I want to kind of go back to this.
00:14:05.040 So on the subject of esoteric Hollywood, I mean, we've kind of talked about this before on the show.
00:14:12.280 I mean, that Hollywood is enormously influential because they're the primary culture reformers along with academia.
00:14:23.060 Yep.
00:14:23.760 Right?
00:14:24.020 And, you know, I mean, of course, we know because you're training theology, you know the maxim.
00:14:29.440 It's Lex Credenti, Lex Arandi, right?
00:14:31.600 And so your core beliefs and the way you pray determine your life.
00:14:35.720 And so, I mean, that's the thing is what Hollywood gives us is an integral worldview full of, you know, as you would say, the presuppositions that are left undeconstructed.
00:14:44.660 And so when we kind of accept the narratives that are being given to us from Hollywood, I mean, they literally shape the entire view of the universe, our metaphysical system.
00:14:56.540 And so I guess what I would just wanted to talk about is, you know, and this is going to be kind of a broad question, but like Hollywood as a control mechanism vis-a-vis culture formation and maybe like relating that, you know, back a little bit to MKUltra.
00:15:13.140 How does Hollywood kind of brainwash America and the world and, you know, box it into a certain worldview?
00:15:20.380 Well, what I started with in the book was talking about Hollywood and film viewed from a religious or ritual perspective, and that's what a lot of people don't do.
00:15:31.500 They don't think about the world that way anymore because everybody's sort of living under the spell of this notion that since the Enlightenment, we have obtained objectivity and neutrality, right?
00:15:46.440 And so prior to that, the world was in darkness and we had dark ages and superstition reigned.
00:15:52.400 And then with John Locke and Diderot and Voltaire and these characters, suddenly light has come.
00:15:59.580 And now we have objectivity, right, because of the scientific revolution and so-called science has allowed us to figure out that, you know, you can look at an earthworm and inspect its length and squish its guts out on your finger and smell the earthworm and taste the earthworm.
00:16:17.940 And once you've figured out all of its properties, you can then expound and extrapolate from that that it's millions of years old and from what species it evolved and so forth and so on.
00:16:29.540 But none of that's true, right, because there's no such thing as a completely objective, neutral approach to the phenomenon.
00:16:38.580 Are you sure, Jay, there's no empirical brute facts, these platonic forms floating out there that we can hit people with?
00:16:45.420 No, there's no brute facts, and that's something that, again, like the majority of people still live under this delusion.
00:16:54.460 And one of the great things that I liked about Spangler was in Decline of the West where he talked about this, that we're still living under the spell, the skeletal remains of the Enlightenment period.
00:17:08.440 And it's eventually going to die off because it doesn't make sense.
00:17:12.260 It's inherently contradictory with itself.
00:17:16.140 Now, I don't agree with everything Spangler says.
00:17:18.440 I'm not a historical relativist or a cultural relativist.
00:17:22.020 But I think that's a great insight.
00:17:25.020 And so when I approach Hollywood and film and things like that, I look at all these things from a religious perspective because I know that ultimately that's how man functions and operates.
00:17:37.680 Humans are constituted to be religious beings even in their irreligion.
00:17:43.680 They are fiercely religious.
00:17:45.000 And I think Nietzsche made this point in Ekehoma or one of his books.
00:17:51.840 It was a long time ago when I read it.
00:17:53.380 But he talks about the pale-faced atheists who are basically evangelists for atheism.
00:18:01.000 And he said that they're just as stupid as the Christian evangelists.
00:18:05.660 And I think he's right to a certain degree there at that point.
00:18:08.560 I mean he realized what the atheists don't realize is that you're just operating still on the presuppositions that there is objective truth.
00:18:19.060 And Nietzsche's point is that there's not really objective truth, right?
00:18:22.520 So in the same way, when we come to anything in life – and I generally think that people that call Darwinism or scientism or religion are totally on point.
00:18:34.440 That's absolutely correct.
00:18:35.480 I believe there's a famous essay by – oh, what's that guy's name?
00:18:42.120 He's the – not William Lane Craig.
00:18:45.860 That guy's an idiot.
00:18:46.560 But the other Protestant guy, like a Calvinist dude – anyway, I can't remember.
00:18:54.860 But he wrote a famous paper about Darwinism and scientism as a religion, Calvinist philosopher at some college.
00:19:02.540 I forget what his name is, but very well-known.
00:19:04.000 But anyway, that paper is really good, and it illustrates the point, and that's what I would agree with.
00:19:10.720 And so anyway, I'm getting philosophy crazy here.
00:19:13.780 But when we talk about Hollywood, it's no different because anybody that makes a film has a worldview.
00:19:18.880 Or in the case of perhaps propaganda films with the military or the intelligence agencies or the Pentagon or whoever embedding their messages into movies, they have a worldview.
00:19:29.940 Right now, it might be to convince people to join the war effort or to convince people over time to accept transgenderism or whatever.
00:19:39.720 Those things are all very real, but they represent some perspective or worldview.
00:19:46.260 And in my view, the problem with America and Americanism is that it is double-think from the get-go.
00:19:54.820 So when you look at the founding fathers, you kind of have this collection of miscreants and masons and deists and weirdos, Baptists and Episcopalians and maybe a couple Catholics.
00:20:09.000 And they're all trying to come together under this banner of a propositional nation.
00:20:15.500 There's never been a nation created under a proposition before, right?
00:20:20.280 Nations historically have always been based on ethnoi and their belief system and their language, right?
00:20:26.780 Well, you know, it's interesting that you mentioned that.
00:20:29.280 I'm in an Orthodox kind of traditional fellowship.
00:20:34.860 And before I came on to the show, I asked them if they had any questions that they wanted to put to you.
00:20:39.660 And one of them said, I'm going to read you a quote.
00:20:42.320 He said, recently you had a Facebook post where you mentioned the concept of ethnoid.
00:20:47.460 And you used a couple of biblical passages to back up what you were saying.
00:20:50.740 And this fellow says that his question to you is, is it possible in America to actually develop a serious ethnoid where the identity is so integrally wrapped up in these Enlightenment concepts?
00:21:03.680 I don't know.
00:21:04.520 I keep going back and forth on that because like a year ago, two years ago, I would have said no way because I just didn't think anything.
00:21:14.860 So we're way too far down the toilet.
00:21:16.720 And we probably still are.
00:21:18.560 So I'm not I'm not sure what Trump represents yet, but I've taken a positive approach to Trump with with some criticism.
00:21:28.680 So the point of the reason I say that is just to say that there is reason for optimism.
00:21:37.120 There's reason for hope.
00:21:38.120 I think that we start to realize that the globalists, the oligarchs, the elite, whoever, the those that are running our country are not God.
00:21:48.700 They're not infallible.
00:21:49.680 They're not indestructible.
00:21:51.720 And so if we really can have victories and we can change things, it really is possible.
00:21:59.200 And I just kind of I'm actually chiding myself because I've had such a defeatist, cynical, negative attitude for a long time that I think was, you know, you just get beat down by stuff over time.
00:22:12.420 I mean, you feel like, you know, contra mundum, it's you against the world.
00:22:15.740 And then you realize that you actually can.
00:22:18.820 I mean, I never would have thought that I'd have a book and be able to talk about, you know, critiquing Darwinism.
00:22:24.080 I'm not saying my book's going to change the world or anything, but I mean, I just never would have thought that, you know, five years ago that you could write a book and include a chapter critiquing Darwinism on Hollywood.
00:22:33.800 So that to me would have just seemed, you know, just like, oh, that's never going to happen.
00:22:39.540 So, you know, a big part, a big part of the enemy's psyops is demoralizing people.
00:22:46.400 And this is what I've really tried to come to grips with.
00:22:49.600 And I actually, the more I think about it, I think that's what Orwell's book is about.
00:22:55.400 I don't think George Orwell was, I mean, he could have been a good guy.
00:22:58.380 I don't know.
00:22:58.780 There's all these stories about he, you know, went to hide in Scotland or something and that he always thought they were going to come kill him.
00:23:05.200 Maybe that's true.
00:23:06.120 But when you read 1984, it's intentionally a book that leaves you with no hope.
00:23:12.300 And this is a book written from the perspective of, I believe, the British Royal Society of Luminists.
00:23:20.040 And I believe it's a psyop because the whole point of the book is that there's nowhere to look for hope.
00:23:26.920 There's nowhere to look for change.
00:23:28.020 The boot is going to stamp your face for all eternity.
00:23:31.440 So it's a very demoralizing book, even though it's very revelatory.
00:23:35.420 Yeah, I mean, it's kind of the same with Brave New World.
00:23:38.900 I mean, in the end, the guy hangs himself, right?
00:23:41.320 Exactly.
00:23:41.940 Great point.
00:23:42.540 The thing is that all of this system, it has no meaning in and of itself.
00:23:47.320 I mean, science, just for the sake of science, it's useless.
00:23:50.780 It's just will to power.
00:23:51.840 There's will to power has no goal.
00:23:53.080 So you could argue that it's a slavery to the desire of power.
00:23:58.660 And, I mean, if you're going to make a bit of a historical comparison, there is this legend of Alexander the Great and Diogenes.
00:24:06.560 Now, Diogenes, he lived in this little barrel or whatever it was.
00:24:10.880 And Alexander the Great Soul said to him, I will grant you whatever you wish.
00:24:16.140 Now, Diogenes said, just stay, just go away.
00:24:18.940 Let me have my sunlight.
00:24:21.000 So Diogenes wasn't as enslaved to this desire for power.
00:24:24.420 So if you're going to use this, you know, Augustinian mindset that you have as many masters as you have, you know, uncontrolled the size, so to speak.
00:24:37.420 Then Diogenes was, yeah, then Diogenes was more free than Alexander the Great.
00:24:41.780 He was more powerful than Alexander the Great.
00:24:43.360 That's a good point.
00:24:46.600 Yeah, and it reminds me of Max Weber's book, Spirit of Protestantism and all that, where he talks about capitalism being something that derives from Puritanism and all that, which a lot of that's, I think, irrelevant and true.
00:25:03.220 Obviously, I don't agree with him.
00:25:04.100 We're going to get into that when we discuss the Anglo question.
00:25:07.200 Yeah, I don't agree with Max Weber's democratic socialism, obviously.
00:25:11.400 But when he talks about the rationalization process, which is the main point of that book that monopoly capitalism develops into by its own inherent logic, he's absolutely right that – and this is – I think I wrote a paper when I was doing that book in undergrad.
00:25:29.020 And my argument was that point was like, OK, so we've got this giant rationalization process.
00:25:33.440 OK, so we're going to be run by Google and Microsoft and all this kind of stuff.
00:25:38.140 But what is the purpose of the rationalization process?
00:25:40.960 Because reason and rationalization presuppose telos.
00:25:44.900 They presuppose some sort of purpose or goal to which the syllogism is moving you, right?
00:25:50.640 The force of the logic is moving you to some point or conclusion in the argument.
00:25:55.380 And so in the same way, if we look at giant corporations and systems and systems analysis and how Microsoft works and how the computer works and all this kind of stuff, it's all very rational, very logical, and it's supposed to be moving towards something.
00:26:10.460 But there's no goal because they're totally nihilistic, right?
00:26:14.000 Well, no, Jay, don't you see utilitarian morality as all that exists?
00:26:17.320 It's all just competing for evolutionary advantage.
00:26:19.940 I mean, we're hedonists, you know?
00:26:22.280 I mean, the only thing we're conquering at this point is just an infinite void.
00:26:26.700 It is, right.
00:26:27.560 And so there's like a – I think Dugan calls it a monotonic process where it's like a never-ending sequence of progress in a certain direction for no reason whatsoever.
00:26:39.560 It's just assumed that progress, quote-unquote, is a self-evident maxim, and it's also just assumed that it's moving in the right direction, and it's also just assumed that it's either going somewhere or going nowhere.
00:26:55.120 And then, like you said, what is the point?
00:26:57.360 Yeah, well, Dr. Johnson makes this point, you know, that if anybody ever promises you anything but doesn't give you the end goal, you should not believe them.
00:27:06.720 He's talking specifically about Marxism.
00:27:08.620 It's like, yeah, we need the revolution.
00:27:09.920 Revolution for what, exactly?
00:27:11.860 Right, and that's what I was – in fact, I woke up this morning thinking about that.
00:27:15.840 I was thinking about how everybody lives under all these promises of things like – and I was just thinking about what – so we talked about globalism, and I was reading all these think tank papers yesterday.
00:27:26.680 And they're always talking about, you know, the growth of global capitalism and globalism, the hope of globalism.
00:27:33.620 No, it never says what it is.
00:27:35.820 What is the hope, right?
00:27:37.540 Well, yeah, it's just –
00:27:38.920 Like, what is the end purpose of all this?
00:27:40.240 I mean, this is kind of what Spengler talks about as well in The Decline of the West, you know, this super-Faustian mentality is progress for progress' sake.
00:27:47.860 Absolutely.
00:27:49.120 Yeah, just meaningless platitudes.
00:27:50.820 They don't have any significance, and it's just more like propaganda than it is anything else.
00:27:54.720 Exactly, exactly.
00:27:55.440 Exactly. So you end up building this huge machine, and then you're kind of stuck there.
00:28:02.180 That may have been the point. I mean, it's kind of atheistic. I don't agree with it.
00:28:05.680 But that movie – it makes me think of that movie Zero Theorem, that Ridley Scott movie that's really weird with Christoph Waltz where he's like running this giant machine, and he's waiting for the god code that gives it all meaning.
00:28:19.940 And he just sits – he's like – he sits in this, like, giant facility – it's like an old cathedral that's a giant computer facility, and all he does every day is, like, punch these little buttons.
00:28:32.820 He's like a code writer, right?
00:28:34.720 And then he discovers that there is no, like, meaningful god code.
00:28:39.880 It's all just irrational, like you just built this giant machine that's pointless.
00:28:44.860 And so, I mean, it's very nihilistic, but it's illustrative for the point of making this argument to the atheist or the nihilist or whoever.
00:28:56.680 It's just sort of like you built this giant machine, it has no meaning, so you might as well just blow it all up, right?
00:29:01.940 And a lot of people – I think people like Lennon and these nihilists who are more consistent come to that conclusion.
00:29:09.000 They're like, well, yeah, actually, okay, it's all meaningless.
00:29:11.600 Yeah, it's all flux.
00:29:14.020 Right.
00:29:14.460 We actually – we had a discussion – and I'll open this, give this back to Spies and Grave Hans.
00:29:19.880 We had Dr. Johnson on a couple of episodes to discuss, like, the philosophical and theological basis of Freemasonry and Kabbalism.
00:29:27.720 And that basically was our conclusion is that, well, you know, they don't – they just believe it's all flux.
00:29:32.920 They don't actually believe in ontology or telos or, you know, an end.
00:29:38.260 I mean, what this – the only thing I can imagine that these people are trying to do is they're literally Luciferians.
00:29:45.640 They're literally anti-Christian.
00:29:46.760 They're trying to build the synagogue of Satan because, as we know, Satan can't create anything in and of itself.
00:29:52.360 He can only pervert something.
00:29:53.440 So what he's trying to do is – all this is just trying to pervert that which is already created.
00:30:00.460 It's like dissolving it into a sort of prime matter, then build something new from it.
00:30:05.340 Yeah, I think that's why they're so obsessed with, like, transhumanism and extending life.
00:30:11.020 Because if, like, you take this nihilistic ideology to its logical conclusion, well, of course you're going to want to live forever because there's no – you know, you don't believe in heaven or any kind of afterlife.
00:30:21.380 Yeah, AI antichrists.
00:30:24.320 Yeah, Mark Hackard and I had a good interview a couple of years ago.
00:30:28.300 We were talking about this, and we got to laughing because it was like – so you build a giant – like, let's say transhumanism happens in the fullest sense,
00:30:38.360 and you build, like, some giant robo-chariot by which you're going to fly around the galaxy.
00:30:43.520 Then it's just you as a robot flying around the galaxies, like, you know, like HAL 9000 or something, or like Dr. Manhattan in Watchmen.
00:30:57.360 Yeah, like, what's the end goal?
00:30:59.460 So it's just you, right?
00:31:00.520 So, like, the last transhumanist globalist person, like, George Soros has, like, melded with the bots, and he's flying around alone in the universe.
00:31:09.660 And then so what do you do then?
00:31:10.740 Well, I guess you just blow up planets, and you just blow everything up.
00:31:13.800 So what else is there to do?
00:31:15.560 I mean, it's just totally – yeah, it's total nonsense.
00:31:17.600 But the – it makes me think of Camus.
00:31:20.540 Doesn't he argue that you should just kill yourself?
00:31:22.580 Like, why not?
00:31:23.140 Yeah, that's the existentialist thing.
00:31:26.480 There's – once you take that route, yeah, once you take that view, there's no moral – there's no benchmark of qualification by which to say that there's a preference for existence or nonexistence.
00:31:41.540 Yeah.
00:31:42.100 Like, to say that you should exist assumes some notion of the good still, right?
00:31:46.900 But you've already jettisoned all that.
00:31:48.740 There's no –
00:31:49.280 Right.
00:31:50.000 Well, yeah, exactly.
00:31:51.040 Precisely.
00:31:51.440 There's no ontological grounding.
00:31:53.280 And I mean, there's a – a really famous quote is a – or not famous quote, but something clever is that nihilism is easy to start but hard to finish.
00:32:01.220 Yeah, there you go.
00:32:02.900 There's that whole thing about that we might as well commit suicide.
00:32:06.900 Something here – it's kind of self-contradictory, right?
00:32:10.120 Because if life is meaningless, then we might as well live.
00:32:13.660 And this assertion that life is meaningless, it's –
00:32:15.920 Yeah, exactly.
00:32:16.860 It's pure intellectual.
00:32:18.840 And we know that there's certain things you can't explain.
00:32:21.960 Art, for example.
00:32:22.820 You can't explain art.
00:32:23.720 You can't explain why a painting is beautiful.
00:32:25.380 It just is.
00:32:26.580 This proves that there's something more than what you can just intellectually explain.
00:32:29.960 So, therefore, you might find a meaning in life in that which we can't explain.
00:32:33.600 I mean, the meaning is separate to that which we incarnate the meaning with.
00:32:41.240 Yeah, well, there's the old – the dictum of, I think, Hume that you can't get an ought from an is, right?
00:32:46.620 So, once you adopt this perspective of, say, radical empiricism or something like that or nihilism or whatever, there's no – you can't get any objective is or ought like you ought to do this.
00:33:00.620 And so it's just a manifestation or version of that same point that if we're all just in a meaningless, chaotic universe, then there's no preference for one or the other.
00:33:11.440 So, I mean, literally, there's like – everybody should also be able to live or blow themselves up.
00:33:18.480 Like there's literally no difference between the two whatsoever.
00:33:20.880 Well, yeah, exactly.
00:33:21.560 I was actually talking to a friend of mine who's at Oxford and a very educated guy.
00:33:25.780 I mean he sort of tends to agnosticism and scientific empiricism.
00:33:31.000 And so we were having a – I was making an argument for God from logos, from the intelligibility of the universe, and he basically reduced it to the point where he was like, well, how do you even know that there are not universes that are unintelligible, right?
00:33:43.780 And so I just said to him, well, okay, I'm going to make a purely utilitarian argument.
00:33:49.300 If we can't prove anything through sense data, the utilitarian mode is to pretend that we can.
00:33:54.380 It makes people happier, empirically speaking.
00:33:58.040 Yes.
00:33:59.960 Good point.
00:34:00.600 Yeah, one thing I did want to say too about Kabbalah, to be fair to – I read a good bit of Kabbalists and Kabbalistic tradition, and I get the impression that –
00:34:13.600 Yes, there were Jewish thinkers who wanted to – who were into the black arts and things like this, and they took a very occultic view.
00:34:24.120 But I also don't agree with this idea that's very popular in a lot of these kinds of circles that like all of Kabbalism is this plan or this plot to destroy Christianity.
00:34:38.840 I don't think that's sensible or coherent because there's a bunch of different Kabbalistic schools.
00:34:44.860 So some of them are more like just Neoplatonists, and it's like guys who read a bunch of Plato and Plotinus and tried to mess that with their Judaism, right?
00:34:56.200 So I just think that's a more fair approach because if you talk to – so if some Jewish guy hears this and if you're approaching this from like an apologetic perspective or something, they're going to be able to dismantle that argument because if they read say like Nachmanides or somebody like that, they're not going to buy the argument that every Kabbalist was out to destroy Christianity.
00:35:19.620 Now, that's not me saying that Kabbalism is good. I just think that it was an attempt of Jewish thought to do a theodicy.
00:35:29.140 Sure.
00:35:29.500 That's a big part of it.
00:35:31.120 Well, I mean I think that the issue is fundamentally – I mean it's a matter of – I mean these intellectual constructs are tools, right?
00:35:38.520 And so I mean if you're trying to understand like metaphysics, I mean even if you want to comprehend it, you still have a decision with what to do based on that knowledge.
00:35:48.960 So if you have deep metaphysical understanding, then yeah, you can use that to manipulate the goyim or you can use that to try to improve your own virtue.
00:35:57.420 So we got totally, totally off track.
00:36:03.060 I guess bringing it back to the Hollywood question, I want to – would you care to like give a little spiel on the integration of the kind of – like Anglo-Jewish military industrial complex and intelligence apparatus and Hollywood?
00:36:22.080 How is Hollywood used as an organ of the control system generally and what – most people are – I mean most people are just blissfully ignorant.
00:36:33.040 They just kind of – even if they think Hollywood is Jewish, they think that it's mostly motivated by profit.
00:36:41.040 Well, I tend to – I mean obviously there's a powerful Jewish element in Hollywood, and I think I talked to Henrik about this.
00:36:50.100 If you watch that documentary, Jews in Hollywood or Hollywood and the Rise of Jews or something like that, Empire of Their Own, it's a famous documentary.
00:37:01.220 It goes into great depth to chronicle the history of the rise of Jewish filmmakers and how they became prominent in Hollywood.
00:37:12.660 And it's of course made by Jews, so it's not anti-Semitic or anything like that.
00:37:16.960 But what's interesting is that I think that Jews like any minority group in America were seen as outsiders for a long time.
00:37:29.180 So, you know, you had such a dominance of the WASP elite, and especially the East Coast WASP elite, that any group that was – that saw themselves as outsiders, be it black, be it Catholic, be it Jew, they were very –
00:37:46.180 very concerned with how to rise up in power structure.
00:37:55.500 And so what we've seen I think over the last 100 years is that very thing.
00:37:59.400 And so a lot of the filmmakers who would kind of go on to become the heads of the major studios or the early on, like the MGM guys who were the big five studio heads that were Jewish, eventually they had totally dropped any of their Judaism.
00:38:17.540 So they had married Gentile wives, and they had changed their names and hidden their identities and stuff like that.
00:38:23.720 And then I think over time their descendants never cared about Judaism.
00:38:28.360 Many of them, in fact, converted to Catholicism because they would send their kids to Catholic schools because that's what was like the most prominent private school in Hollywood or whatever.
00:38:38.520 So I don't think that it's just as easy as saying that it's like a total Jewish conspiracy because of that fact, because the realities of people living that way and dropping their identity.
00:38:55.500 And what I think is if you watch something like The Godfather, you see this presented for, say, the character of – well, actually, each of the generations of the Corleones is that it's partly about them losing their identity.
00:39:10.900 So they leave Italy, and they think that they're going to come to America for material progress and monetary – and they do.
00:39:22.560 They – he becomes very successful because he learns the system is here very corrupt.
00:39:28.080 So he rises to the top of being the Don and all that, and then he – Don Corleone passes it on to Michael Corleone and so forth.
00:39:36.400 And so by The Third Godfather, he's like an international NGO foundation head who's like making land deals for billions of dollars with the Vatican.
00:39:45.560 So the point of that is that he has completely lost his identity, and part of the third – the end of the series, part three, is him wanting to go back to Italy to reconnect.
00:39:59.140 So he's done all this, he's made all this money, and what has been the point when all along what he wanted was to go back – and if you remember, his wife that he met – his first wife was a young Italian girl from his people that a rival mobster blew up.
00:40:18.320 So they were married for like a week, and some mob guy blew his wife up, and so he comes back, and he marries the American girl.
00:40:28.600 And point being that everything that Michael wanted his whole life was in Italy.
00:40:36.320 Right.
00:40:36.880 He would have been happier had he not tried to become this billionaire imperial figure.
00:40:45.500 This is something that we talk about.
00:40:47.000 I mean actually it's brought up like a bit on the far-right circles is that the – you have all of these Jewish intellectuals who push cultural Marxism, but the Jews themselves are actually like imbibing this.
00:40:59.680 And so in the past there was a very explicit understanding of for thee, not for me, this is for the Goyim, but more and more we're seeing in fact that the Jews themselves are – like rabbis are releasing all sorts of statements against miscegenation and now breeding with the Goyish dogs, right?
00:41:17.460 Well, yeah, I mean it kind of makes sense again if you think about it because – I mean what is the mentality that is on the bottom of all this?
00:41:27.940 It's this, you know, Luciferian literal Satanist mentality.
00:41:32.840 So it's not really surprising when it happens to the Jews as well because, you know, this is what they want all along.
00:41:38.180 I mean if anything, the Jews who only want to push this on the Goyim and not themselves, if anything, they're the ones who are a bit more healthy so to speak.
00:41:46.460 Yeah, I don't think – I'm sorry, go ahead.
00:41:49.360 I was just going to say I've had a conversation with a Jewish friend of mine and he's actually – it's kind of funny to listen to him talk about this because he'll bash on the Reform Jews who are more liberal and more open.
00:42:03.460 And he'll tell me that, you know, oh, like Jewish birth rates are going down because of intermarriage and all this.
00:42:09.740 And, you know, I just kind of have to sit back and smile a little bit like, oh, this is – this is, you know, your people doing this essentially, or, you know, your elites, I guess.
00:42:22.080 Oy vey to that.
00:42:22.960 Well, I tend to think that this strategy is older than, you know, the establishment of the state of Israel.
00:42:34.280 In fact, if you look at the Mackinder Doctrine, it was Halford Mackinder's plan that said there would be the establishment of a state of Israel.
00:42:42.380 So I think that the Rothschild-level persons, they have absolutely no concern for Jews.
00:42:50.500 I don't think that –
00:42:52.720 No, no, clearly not beyond any – I mean, they're pragmatic about it, right?
00:42:56.960 They utilize the ethnic Kabbalistic infrastructure to, you know, for their own advantage, but they are perfectly willing to throw everybody else under the bus.
00:43:07.080 Yeah.
00:43:07.420 I mean, Spengler essentially said that Jews and Anglos are essentially the same.
00:43:11.200 And that's why a person like the Israeli could actually become prime minister in the UK.
00:43:17.180 Right.
00:43:17.620 I actually – I want to get into this discussion, the Anglo question and the Jewish question back-to-back, but I want to just finish up here on Esoteric Hollywood a little bit.
00:43:26.360 So one of the things is like –
00:43:28.760 Oh, real quick before you go on.
00:43:31.700 I didn't really – so I never did get to the point you asked about propaganda and what – so what I think really the long-term picture of the propaganda is the creation of a global culture.
00:43:42.900 And so Hollywood is a powerful means to export Americanism, really.
00:43:48.660 And I view Americanism as kind of globalism beta.
00:43:51.400 And then America as the melting pot, as the New World Order, as the foundation of the pyramid, the block of the capitalist pyramid is the means by which the world would be evangelized for globalism and the monoculture.
00:44:07.460 And so I think that's what we're seeing now is the exportation of Americanism, and that would be consumerism and porn and Marilyn Manson and everything like that to the rest of the world.
00:44:19.260 And, you know, vaccines and GMOs and all this gobbledygook garbage from the big foundations and whatnot.
00:44:28.980 And by the way, a lot of that's in Israel too.
00:44:30.760 So I think that it's very – it's difficult to say that it's like a total Jewish conspiracy because, you know, abortion is legal in Israel.
00:44:40.980 So –
00:44:41.740 Well, it has one of the largest gay prize parades every year.
00:44:45.940 Tel Aviv is like a huge gay capital.
00:44:48.600 Yeah, it's said to be one of like the gayest cities on earth.
00:44:52.800 I've heard that before.
00:44:54.960 So Hollywood functions as a means to create a global culture and then monoculture.
00:45:05.740 And then you get these weird aberrations of Bollywood and like other countries try to do the same thing.
00:45:12.600 And then what they'll do is export Bollywood to America.
00:45:16.920 They'll export those cultures here, right?
00:45:19.960 And so you'll get anime becomes popular in America.
00:45:22.740 Ah, yes.
00:45:23.680 So this is all this exchange, which is to a degree it's just a normal aspect of the cosmopolitan theory, right?
00:45:33.580 Or the market, you know, merchant sea power, right, as opposed to the land power.
00:45:41.040 So part of that is just the natural progress of monetarism and capitalism and so forth.
00:45:46.640 But I think there's also a deeper sinister aspect of it to – I mean we see this with the big propaganda films like American Sniper or Zero Dark Thirty or even things like Transformers, which you may not think about it, but actually was made in consultation with the Pentagon.
00:46:05.400 And so even something – yeah.
00:46:07.160 Yeah, Michael Bay movies are oftentimes made in concert with the Pentagon.
00:46:12.140 And you say, why would that be?
00:46:13.000 Well, who were the heroes of that movie?
00:46:16.000 Well, the Transformers worked together with the U.S. military, the good side of the U.S. military.
00:46:21.020 I mean there might be bad guys in the deep state like the John Turturro character or something like that.
00:46:25.160 But, yeah, you can find articles – mainstream articles about the Pentagon working to help make Transformers.
00:46:34.580 So this is very – yeah, this is very common.
00:46:37.480 You know, you were saying the other day on one of these podcasts like the Pentagon had donated to Cupcake Wars.
00:46:42.420 Yes, Tom Secker, who works with Cybele, got a FOIA request for what the Pentagon's budget was for Hollywood like two years ago, and they had donated – put in a good bit of money to Cupcake Wars.
00:47:02.060 Yeah.
00:47:02.700 Many of the TV cooks have been spies.
00:47:08.380 Yeah, Anthony Bourdain, right?
00:47:09.780 Yeah.
00:47:09.960 I'm not –
00:47:11.220 Oh, Julia Child.
00:47:12.940 Yeah, Julia Child was, but Bourdain I think is very likely.
00:47:17.100 And so what you come to see is that a lot of these people are – you know, they're promoted and they're making this money because they're agents of the state, which people may not know, right?
00:47:31.160 Right.
00:47:32.220 Fascinating.
00:47:33.360 So the next –
00:47:33.980 I've learned everything.
00:47:36.240 Right.
00:47:36.820 Is like full-spectrum dominance.
00:47:39.160 It's – I mean, more I want to talk about predictive programming.
00:47:42.680 So this is one of the things especially that a lot of the people on the far right are incredulous of is even if they recognize that Hollywood has like a clear culture-forming agenda, like they'll reject the idea that Hollywood will condition people to accept certain ideas before they occur.
00:47:57.280 Right.
00:47:58.280 And so one of the famous ones is like 9-11, right?
00:48:00.760 You can see huge swaths and swaths and swaths of these like 9-11 destruction of the Twin Tower references.
00:48:08.040 Right.
00:48:08.700 Right.
00:48:08.940 And so the people ask, you know, people will just actually dismiss this out of hand.
00:48:16.240 Well, I just think that's kind of an unfair attitude.
00:48:19.800 When you study the relationship of the Pentagon and the intelligence agencies to Hollywood, which I've done for a long time, it becomes a lot more plausible after you've studied that for a long time and a lot easier to believe that.
00:48:36.020 If you've not studied that, which most people haven't, I totally understand that it would seem bizarre.
00:48:42.860 It would seem crazy.
00:48:43.880 And maybe 10 years ago when I first got familiar with the idea of the relationship between Hollywood and the CIA and stuff like that, even – I remember in my 20s when I first encountered this, although this is very strange.
00:48:58.620 Like what?
00:48:59.080 I thought it would be – if I talked to myself 10 years ago, the J that I am now, I would think I was nuts.
00:49:08.180 Like what are you talking about?
00:49:10.020 There's not – it's not that conspiratorial.
00:49:12.540 But it is.
00:49:13.980 And you can find studies that talk about a lot of this stuff.
00:49:17.320 So you can find studies that go very, very deep, very scientific into the process of how to condition people through film and through the movie theater experience.
00:49:31.340 So let's take something like Disneyland or Epcot.
00:49:35.120 Epcot is not just a money-making scheme.
00:49:38.260 Epcot was the older form of conditioning people to the acceptance of planned communities, smart grids, smart cities, and Agenda 21-type ideas.
00:49:53.040 Now, I'm not saying by that that I'm like a libertarian and I think that there's no such thing as city planning or anything like that.
00:49:59.820 I'm not saying that.
00:50:00.580 I'm saying that the Club of Rome-style approach to this stuff that Disney and Epcot was conditioning people for is not healthy.
00:50:10.440 That's not healthy civilization or anything like that.
00:50:13.220 Well, and we can actually see historical examples of this.
00:50:17.220 I mean like St. Petersburg.
00:50:19.740 St. Petersburg was completely like a Masonic city.
00:50:23.380 It literally was built on the Gnostic idea of the floating city in the clouds, right?
00:50:27.560 And it was – and Peter the Great, Raphael Johnson talks about this, was like literally a Satanist.
00:50:34.480 He was a very high-level Freemason, and we know what he did, of course, to the church in Russia.
00:50:39.420 He completely tried to destroy it, and he built that city on the backs of like 250,000 Cossacks.
00:50:46.480 He killed – 250,000 of them died dredging the swamps.
00:50:51.380 Yeah.
00:50:52.900 Right.
00:50:53.300 So there's – city planning in itself is neither bad nor good.
00:50:57.200 It could be either one.
00:50:58.740 And a lot of city planners are masons.
00:51:01.400 Go look at a Washington, D.C.
00:51:02.660 So you're absolutely right about that.
00:51:03.740 And I think when I interviewed Dr. Johnson, we did touch on that.
00:51:07.260 But we can see this in America too, again, with Disney and Epcot.
00:51:12.540 And all you have to do is just look into the history of Epcot and the Pentagon.
00:51:16.580 The Pentagon has always been interested in Disneyland and studying it because it's a closed-planned community.
00:51:24.840 Theme parks, things like this.
00:51:27.340 Now, I know that sounds crazy, but that's – if you think from the perspective of a nefarious Pentagon planner or from a corporate planner, it makes perfect sense.
00:51:39.740 It's because you want to understand human psychology, motivations, managerial theories, the creation of the company man and this kind of stuff out of the 40s and 50s that the CIA and the advertising companies were studying.
00:51:54.120 All that stuff is real.
00:51:56.420 So Disney is just an example of the intersection of the deep state interests, corporate interests, monopoly capital interests, Hollywood interests, creative interests, right?
00:52:10.040 All of these intersect there.
00:52:12.260 And so I just use that as one example of predictive programming that most people don't think about.
00:52:15.720 But what is Epcot?
00:52:18.380 It's been preparing you for a surveillance society, for a smart city, for all these things that we now see being implemented.
00:52:26.040 So that's predictive programming right in your face, and everybody has been to Disneyland probably in America at least.
00:52:33.540 Maybe you guys aren't familiar with that.
00:52:35.760 No, I've been to Disney World.
00:52:37.100 Yeah.
00:52:37.260 Okay.
00:52:37.960 Yeah.
00:52:38.140 So you've seen this kind of stuff, right?
00:52:40.000 Well, yeah.
00:52:40.420 No, I mean it's interesting.
00:52:42.060 It's actually quite overt.
00:52:43.320 I mean even in the – when it was first created, like that's how it was directly marketed as this kind of city of the future, right?
00:52:51.460 Right.
00:52:51.980 And now that doesn't – now maybe Walt himself was not nefarious or something.
00:52:57.140 I'm not trying to say that – I'm not trying to paint this in some simplistic, moralistic thing of, you know, like they're all Luciferians and they're all – it doesn't really work that way.
00:53:07.400 It's people are planning based on the worldview that they have in their age, in their day.
00:53:14.740 And so there was a lot of people in the 40s and 50s who bought into World War II propaganda and the Cold War, you know, and they – I mean I speak this way about Ian Fleming a lot.
00:53:25.180 I don't think that he was all good or all bad because people ask me that all the time.
00:53:29.000 We talk about, you know, was he a good guy or a bad guy.
00:53:30.780 Well, I mean it depends on what you mean.
00:53:33.120 Yeah, I listened to your interview with Richard Spencer.
00:53:35.840 It was pretty good.
00:53:36.480 Yeah, I mean he's a man of his time.
00:53:38.540 So anyway, predictive programming is most easily proven by things like Bond novels where you have a transition from the Cold War to the War on Terror decades ahead of time in Fleming's novels.
00:53:57.140 With SMERS, Spectre, predictive programming is demonstrated again in things like the pilot of the Lone Gunman where you have the remote-controlled jets being flown in – hijacked remote-controlled planes being flown into the towers.
00:54:17.700 By the way, yes, I –
00:54:22.300 You say, well, how can I – well, Dean Haglund did an interview with Alex Jones about 10 years ago where he said that the CIA was there on the set telling us what things they would like to have in the script.
00:54:37.060 So I think that that's the most reasonable thesis for how you could have the events of 9-11 ahead of time in so many fictional accounts.
00:54:49.280 There's an Iron Man cartoon from the 90s which has both the towers being destroyed and a plane flying into the Pentagon.
00:54:57.260 Again, in like 1995, the old Iron Man cartoon.
00:55:00.720 I've had this on my website for, I don't know, six years.
00:55:03.800 I mean I don't think that's accidental, especially not when you look into even children's cartoons, right?
00:55:10.780 So if the CIA is interested in cooking shows because they're interested in culture and culture creation and cooking and food is obviously a big part of culture, they're probably interested in cartoons.
00:55:24.300 And then when you look into people who have consulted on cartoon shows like G.I. Joe and the Friedman character that I've talked about for, you know, on many podcasts.
00:55:35.820 Actually, I found an interview with him that I dug up where he talks about – he talks about his consultations on cartoons.
00:55:46.700 Yeah, here it is.
00:55:47.460 It's called He Killed Optimus Prime, an interview with Ron Friedman, the writer of Transformers.
00:55:54.560 And he is a – he's an architect and a teacher from Chapman University.
00:56:02.800 So when you go back and you watch these cartoons from the 80s like G.I. Joe and Transformers and whatnot, they'll have all these very strange things that we 20, 30 years later find out are real embedded in them.
00:56:14.640 All right. Now, would I be remiss in asking if that name echoes?
00:56:19.080 If what?
00:56:20.120 Are you familiar with the parentheses, the echo meme?
00:56:25.840 No. What is that?
00:56:27.320 If a gentleman's name has three parentheses around it or you pronounce it with an echo, it means that he's Jewish.
00:56:35.040 Oh, okay.
00:56:35.360 So we would say Friedman, etc.
00:56:38.680 Anyway, there is one thing that I haven't asked before, and that's – I remember seeing an article, I think it was from CNN or something, a while back.
00:56:49.740 And this was on their actual website.
00:56:51.800 It was still on the actual official CNN website or NBC, whatever American newspaper it was.
00:56:57.960 And this was from September the 10th, 2001.
00:57:01.680 And this was about literally saying that the Israelis could launch a false flag against, for example, the Twin Towers to drag America into a war.
00:57:17.720 And I tried to see, you know, if this was on fake websites, and it wasn't.
00:57:24.560 Now, I lost that link when my computer crashed a year or so ago, but it was really, really eerie.
00:57:31.960 I mean, you see such a thing on, you know, such a big website, and it's, you know, the day before as well.
00:57:39.420 It's just insane.
00:57:40.020 Hans, these conspiracy theories, what are you trying to prove?
00:57:44.560 Come on.
00:57:45.220 This upsets my simple utilitarian worldview.
00:57:49.780 Okay, clearly, I mean, we don't like Muslims, and if Muslims did 9-11, that's a good reason to not like Muslims.
00:57:55.600 So please, Hans, okay, we don't need to talk about the truth, okay?
00:57:59.040 Well, I mean, it just fits into the narrative of clash of civilizations, of pitting Western so-called Christianity against, you know, against Islam.
00:58:11.400 Right, and that's something I want to talk about if we get in time.
00:58:15.360 Yeah, how long have Bernard Lewis and Sam Huntington been talking about this?
00:58:19.560 And hint, hint, that that suggests to me that there might be a bigger game at play here to wipe out those two views.
00:58:30.160 And then, oh, by the way, I wanted to mention, too, that there are other – if you wanted to really take on the issue of predictive programming,
00:58:39.120 that is just a term that has been used by conspiracy people for a while,
00:58:46.140 but it's already been taken on by, like, academics many times over.
00:58:50.780 So there's – you can get other academic publications like the CIA and Hollywood out of University of Texas Press by Tricia Jenkins,
00:58:59.320 where she deals with it, and the CIA consulting on J.J. Abrams Productions and alias and things like that.
00:59:05.320 There's a book called Operation Hollywood, How the Pentagon Shapes and Censors the Movies by David Robb.
00:59:11.180 There's many other examples of this other than my book.
00:59:14.520 Like, there's Ian Fleming's Secret War by Craig Cobble that goes into a lot of the Bond stuff.
00:59:20.880 So, yeah, all of this has already been dealt with.
00:59:24.020 It's just that the public doesn't live in, you know, academia world, so they don't know any of this stuff.
00:59:29.980 Right. There was something – you know, I'm interested in the links between British intelligence and the rise of Salafism.
00:59:40.720 But that's something, you know, it's kind of ancillary, maybe for another show, another day.
00:59:45.060 Well, I can tell you two good books on that would be –
00:59:47.420 Sure. Let's hear it.
00:59:48.340 Mark Curtis, who's a Royal Society researcher fellow.
00:59:52.600 Secret Affairs, that's a really good book.
00:59:54.540 Okay.
00:59:54.700 I read that several years ago.
00:59:56.760 About 500 pages on this topic.
00:59:59.400 I know.
00:59:59.660 You can read also Robert Dreyfuss' book, Devil's Game, which is dedicated to this topic.
01:00:05.880 I did a whole talk on that book.
01:00:07.380 And then Ingdal's a little on the left, but his Lost Hegemon that he just did is dedicated to that.
01:00:19.700 Interesting.
01:00:21.420 It's fascinating.
01:00:22.480 And if you want the master tome that will take you forever to read, Stephen Dorrell's MI6.
01:00:32.580 Okay.
01:00:33.980 Is that the authorized history or –
01:00:37.240 No, he's a British professor of University of – I forgot what.
01:00:44.180 By the way, I exchanged a couple emails with him, but it's just – he's just a professor of the history of espionage at some UK university.
01:00:54.980 I don't remember what.
01:00:56.580 Fascinating.
01:00:58.280 So what I wanted to discuss with you, and this is something I think is absolutely critical, is – so I listened to all of your Tragedy and Hope lectures.
01:01:09.480 Yeah.
01:01:09.820 And I thought that they were – number one, I want to say thank you for actually reading through that very dry tome and kind of distilling the good bits for us.
01:01:20.380 It was a lot of work.
01:01:20.920 It was a lot of work.
01:01:23.580 Yeah.
01:01:24.220 So God bless you for that.
01:01:25.620 The second thing is that I think that book is really so critical to get an understanding of how the oligarchs use financial instruments in order to shape world history, how to create false dialectics, how geopolitics actually works, especially because he's giving you the CFR inside man view.
01:01:46.820 But one of the things that I – it stands out is like on the far right we talk a lot about the Jews, right?
01:01:53.940 And obviously this is something that's – a lot of this is reactionary because you're not allowed to talk about the Jews in the mainstream.
01:02:01.040 This is the cardinal sin.
01:02:02.380 Hitler is the secular devil, right?
01:02:04.740 And so – but what happens is it seems that a lot of people will kind of narrow in on the Jews as exclusively the synagogue of Satan, and then they will completely exclude the possibility that there's any Protestants or goyim that are at a similar level of control or similar interests or mechanisms of operation beyond just being kind of Shabbos goys.
01:02:30.440 So I wanted to talk about the Anglo question and the Jewish question, right?
01:02:36.980 Specifically, go on.
01:02:38.140 Yeah, I'm an Anglo, so I guess I can speak from Turkey.
01:02:41.900 Wow.
01:02:42.800 We're going to have to hang up now, Jay.
01:02:44.380 Clearly you're a shill.
01:02:45.600 A self-hating Anglo.
01:02:47.700 Ha ha.
01:02:48.640 Self-hating Anglo.
01:02:51.660 Well, my background is the Dyers.
01:02:55.180 The Dyers actually – I think they were given the licensure by the crown to tend the royal swans.
01:03:03.860 So my predecessors, I guess – actually they come up in Burke's Peerage quite a bit as the tenders of the royal swans.
01:03:12.840 So they have the swan uppers license, and I assume that's my descendants.
01:03:17.560 I don't know for sure, obviously.
01:03:19.060 And, of course, Dyers, there were many Jews who were Dyers in London, so there may be a Jewish pedigree.
01:03:25.880 I don't know.
01:03:26.240 I guess I'll have to get my DNA tested and see if I can make the cut or something ridiculous like that.
01:03:30.800 Well, you know, you realize that if you're not 100% pure variant phenotype, we're going to put you in the gas chamber.
01:03:36.280 Well, see, but I have blue eyes, so does that count or does it –
01:03:40.260 Well, you know, are they Ashkenazi eyes?
01:03:43.040 I mean –
01:03:44.060 Yeah, he can still be an edomite, so –
01:03:46.880 Yeah, that's the thing is, Jay, you know, you might not be part of the edomite race.
01:03:50.600 You might be some sort of edomite mongrel.
01:03:53.200 Oh, OK.
01:03:53.700 Well, so on the other side, it's Scottish, and we come from, like, noble Scottish clans, so I don't know.
01:04:03.060 Well, but Celts aren't white, you see, Jay, so that's not going to fly either.
01:04:06.940 Yes, but Angloquistian.
01:04:11.020 Right.
01:04:12.560 Joking aside, yeah, of course, so are we.
01:04:14.480 Well, I think that this is – a lot of this stuff is very – like, I've read a lot on Judaism and Jewish theology and so forth and Jewish views of race and racial theory, and I don't get the impression that there's, like, one unified Jewish view of what exactly constitutes their position because obviously they've accepted converts too.
01:04:38.280 So – but at the same time, you have elements of Jewish belief that it's very racial, so they will sometimes themselves discriminate against Sephardic.
01:04:52.500 So it's very confusing, and I don't know exactly what's going on there, and they have a left and a right and a conservative and all that and the Likud and all so forth.
01:05:02.240 So I don't know.
01:05:03.440 I mean, one of the reasons I don't touch on, like, the Palestinian Zionist issue is because, number one, I don't know much about this whole issue other than what I hear on internet arguments and debates.
01:05:15.500 And a lot of the people that I see, for example, championing the Palestinian issue, they're big, like, UN promoters, and they're always tied to this left stuff.
01:05:26.060 So, I don't know.
01:05:28.160 To me, that seems – I'm not too impressed with that stuff.
01:05:31.660 Well, I think it's, like, one of the truest manifestations of the false dialectic.
01:05:35.900 Yeah.
01:05:36.580 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:05:38.220 But now, so the Anglo question – yeah, this is an interesting question because there's a lot of different theories.
01:05:46.580 Well, one other thing I wanted to say, too, is I saw a book saying – there was a book put out that they were arguing that – it was a couple years ago, like, some scholarly approach.
01:05:56.220 And it was saying that all the Scots, like, the Scottish people are actually, like, the lost Jewish tribe, you know, like, one of the lost tribes.
01:06:02.980 Yeah, of course.
01:06:03.900 I know.
01:06:04.740 I mean, weren't those Danish men?
01:06:06.640 Yeah, see, the Danes come from the tribe of Dan.
01:06:08.660 Yeah, I'm certain the Christian identity people are going to fucking murder us for even just joking about it.
01:06:14.240 But, yeah.
01:06:14.580 Yeah, well –
01:06:16.540 Identity is a code word for anti-whites.
01:06:20.320 Anyway, so the question of the Anglo relationship is interesting because, you know, most people – what I think probably is relatively true is the intermarriage of – you know, Jewish people in England were able to rise up pretty prominently.
01:06:40.800 And so they did, you know, intermarry into the upper class eventually and the moneyed class and so forth.
01:06:50.080 So, you know, there's been this long presence of Jewish power in England.
01:06:57.540 So it's very hard to parcel that out and distinguish it, and I don't know that anybody has, like, some real – I think a lot of times we think we know everything that's going on or we – but a lot of the stuff we don't really know.
01:07:10.700 So, like, you know, the questions of origins, like, we don't know who the fuck – the original – what happened to the tribe of Dan.
01:07:18.040 Now, maybe somebody will figure it out.
01:07:19.840 I'm not saying that it's not possible, but a lot of this stuff is theory is what I'm trying to say.
01:07:23.820 So I forgot where we were going with this.
01:07:28.800 So can we talk about Anglo power?
01:07:31.120 Well, I hope so because –
01:07:32.580 I guess what I'm basically trying to say is that –
01:07:35.460 Look, here's what Quigley says.
01:07:37.240 He says that there was an alliance between Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish banking eventually in different countries.
01:07:44.280 And that – he argues that it was – in the West, it ultimately was transferred into the hands of J.P. Morgan and the Rockefellers.
01:07:55.880 So does – now, I'm not saying that the Rothschilds don't have vast power and interest.
01:08:01.980 Obviously, they do.
01:08:02.760 But I just tend to think that at that level, the Rothschilds don't care about nation states, and they don't care about who's – what your identity is.
01:08:12.920 Because just like David Rockefeller or J.P. Morgan and these people, they're not ideologically bound because to be in that role, you can't be.
01:08:23.980 You have to be completely pragmatic, I would argue.
01:08:26.800 So I tend to think that they just all agree on their atheism slash pragmatism slash Luciferianism.
01:08:34.900 And so they're all kind of on the same page.
01:08:37.300 Well, I mean, our Lord says this quite – I mean, our Lord says this quite directly to the Pharisees that you are the sons of Satan because you do his work.
01:08:46.280 Yeah, there you go.
01:08:47.200 Yeah, exactly.
01:08:48.200 And I mean, this really is the constant you see everywhere in these people.
01:08:51.680 I mean, even a person who joins, let's say, a Freemasonic Lodge because he wants contacts and wants a career advancement.
01:08:58.620 And he thinks he's one of these in-group clubs that gives faith to each other.
01:09:03.760 Even that mentality is in and of itself the same atheistic pragmatism mentality.
01:09:09.060 It's just to a very lesser degree.
01:09:11.180 Yeah.
01:09:11.240 So you could say that even – these people are, without realizing it, that they have the same assault mentality.
01:09:21.360 That's a good point.
01:09:22.520 Absolutely, yeah.
01:09:23.320 Will you do what it takes to get mammon?
01:09:27.060 Yeah, exactly.
01:09:29.760 Right.
01:09:30.240 Did you want to add something here, Spice?
01:09:31.480 Yeah, I was just going to say it's like we were talking about on an earlier episode kind of related where some people in conspiracy circles will allege that, oh, America's run secretly by a bunch of Nazis because people on Wall Street like Bill Donovan and people in the British establishment helped fund the Nazis.
01:09:53.340 Then, therefore, we're ruled by, like, a secret Nazi government.
01:09:57.940 Well, no, that doesn't necessarily follow.
01:10:00.340 They're just working with them as a business partner to achieve their own ends.
01:10:05.200 That doesn't mean they're committed.
01:10:08.120 Well, the dullest – you have factions in the CIA and the establishment too.
01:10:11.380 So some factions do support – there's like five or six different views of – or sects within the, quote, CIA.
01:10:19.460 So you've got, like, Robert Bayer-style democratic party stuff, and then you've also got, like, Alan Dulles, you know, crypto-Nazi type stuff.
01:10:32.420 So, I mean, human beings differ and have different views, but like you said, yeah, at a geopolitical level, that doesn't mean that people won't work together.
01:10:43.340 I mean, Reinhard Galen trained the Mossad, so.
01:10:45.500 Yeah, and then, you know, like, the CIA helped fund – was it Betty Friedan or Gloria Steinem, one of them, you know, like, helping them fund Ms. Magazine.
01:10:58.120 So I don't know if Nazis were feminist.
01:11:01.740 So, like, if you go – I wrote an article that I think is relevant probably.
01:11:05.920 If you go back, it's called the OSS – CIA OSS and Western Support for Communism, something like that.
01:11:14.280 I wrote it three or four years ago.
01:11:15.500 But I went to the CFR archives, and you can find back in the 40s they were having these debates.
01:11:22.220 So you had – some of the people in the CIA were more on the Nazi side of things, and they wanted a pro-Nazi approach.
01:11:31.100 They wanted to – they wanted fascism.
01:11:35.460 They wanted that kind of a government enacted.
01:11:38.500 And they didn't want this idea of convergence with the Soviet Union.
01:11:43.180 And so you had other people in the CFR who were more on the liberal side, Alger Hiss and these kinds of people, and they were more openly wanting a convergence between Sovietism and Western capitalism, which, you know, the third wave view, as it's called.
01:11:59.940 Well, so there's debates at those levels as well, so, you know, don't – I'm not trying to say that it's all one total control mechanism because there are different views, different strategies, and different plans.
01:12:16.540 But I tend to believe – and when it comes to Hitler, for example, I tend to believe the way that Quigley phrases it is that he was unwittingly perhaps a puppet of the British power structure.
01:12:34.380 Right.
01:12:34.780 That's something that I'm actually very interested in discussing, and we'll get to that a little bit later on.
01:12:38.760 But we have to go to the break soon, so I want to kind of get back to this Angler question.
01:12:41.920 I mean, if you look at this historically, I mean, if you go all the way back to the Roman Republic, there are records of, you know, Jewish and Syrian merchants all over the Mediterranean in southern France.
01:12:52.760 So they've been – literally have been international merchants for 2,500 years.
01:12:58.140 I mean, you could argue that's exactly what happened with King Solomon is that he engaged in foreign trade deals basically and accepted the idols in his temple.
01:13:06.540 And so – but it seems like especially after, you know, the conversion of the Roman Empire to Christianity, there seemed to have always been this natural check on Jewish power.
01:13:22.500 Usury was considered to be gravely sinful, you know, and illegal, and, you know, Jews were always seen with suspicion.
01:13:28.660 I mean, St. John Chrysostom, of course, writes, and so, I mean, even in the high Middle Ages, you know, with the crystallization of the errors of papism, there was always this natural check on Jewish power.
01:13:44.500 Whenever they would accrue, you know, too much land through usury, you know, they would just be expelled and their lands reconfiscated, and, you know, things would kind of have a reset.
01:13:54.140 But it seems that, you know, what happened is in the Renaissance with the rise in terms of the Catholic circles, the Medici banking family, and then with the Protestant Reformation, John Calvin, of course, the usuryist, where he defends usury among Christians, right?
01:14:09.080 There is this—those safeguards drop, and suddenly it becomes acceptable for Christians to engage in new serious business practices with Jews, and the kind of, you know, arch—the carriers of this torch seem to be, you know, the Netherlands and England, right?
01:14:33.440 And so my kind of view would be that these—the Anglo question, having to deal with the, you know, embracing of Protestantism, sort of led the way for this inordinate Jewish influence that we see today.
01:14:47.260 Well, I don't think any of that could have happened if the papacy didn't change its view on usury in the West, so—
01:14:54.460 Oh, I'm not familiar with this. Care to enlighten us?
01:14:56.600 Yeah, the Catholic Church, around that time, you're talking about the Medici period, the Renaissance period, formerly had forbade the practice and then began to change and say that it was doable.
01:15:13.540 I think Michael Hoffman even has a whole book on this, so absolutely.
01:15:17.780 In fact, when I was a Catholic, I had a hard time trying to sort of wrangle with that.
01:15:21.640 But now, certain arguments are made at times, like, well, could a Christian charge a non-Christian usury?
01:15:33.720 You know, these kinds of weird sort of approaches to it, and then—anyway, I'm not—that's a very complex, involved issue.
01:15:43.660 But just simply put, yeah, it's a dangerous thing, and it's very—it can be very harmful, and it is a tool.
01:15:53.740 But I would say that you'd have to—the first power structure in the West that begins to allow it is the papacy.
01:16:02.780 Wow. Fascinating. Yeah, and so, but would you generally agree with the narrative that I've presented, that it was, like, fundamentally a problem with Western Christianity that we allowed this inordinate Jewish money to power to come in?
01:16:20.740 Well, yeah, what I'm saying is, I guess it would be whichever pope—and I haven't looked at this in a long time, so I can't remember off the top of my head, which—it's something during the Renaissance period there's a change in papal approach, so.
01:16:37.960 Yeah, there's a talk Hoffman did on Red Ice, I think it was. It's from several years ago, but he talks about—it was kind of like a process starting, I think, with the Council of Trent.
01:16:52.460 I don't remember all the details, but it's—yeah, it was like a—it took, like, a couple centuries or something.
01:16:58.040 Wow. Yes. Yeah, that's right.
01:16:59.280 I think we also need to briefly just show why Usu is so destructive that it is.
01:17:06.980 I mean, what is Usu is in its essence?
01:17:08.980 You give someone money, and you expect more money back.
01:17:11.680 What will this extra money come from?
01:17:13.780 I mean, you've got to convert something to shekels, so what this is doing, it's like this will-to-power in the form of, you know, Usu is crushing that which is organic.
01:17:25.680 So if you have maybe some fields, you have to sell some of your land to pay the Usu is the money changer, or someone else has to do it instead.
01:17:35.480 Well—
01:17:36.480 At best, you can just shift the blame, so to speak, and let me just take a modern example of this.
01:17:45.080 In Sweden, we have—the whole pension system has a huge pyramid scheme.
01:17:50.480 So what they have been doing now for years is that they have redistributed money, so we're all equal, so we're all good consumers, so we keep feeding the system, so to speak.
01:17:59.480 And they also get all these money people from the third world in, so they can do the same thing with them.
01:18:04.480 We pay for their clothes, we pay for their rent, we pay for all of this.
01:18:08.480 Plus, they will then take money from the bank in loans, so they'll stimulate the economy.
01:18:16.480 So the whole economic wheel will just speed up, speed up, speed up until it hopefully crashes in.
01:18:22.480 And that is what we see right now. It's literally sucking a nation dry.
01:18:27.480 Right. I mean, I think that to say it in a more pithy way, I mean, E. Michael Jones describes it as barren metal, right?
01:18:38.480 So essentially, it's the artificial creation of liquid capital where there's no, like, real capital to back it up.
01:18:46.880 So there's not any goods or services that are being provided to expect this increase in money, in money capital.
01:18:55.640 It's just kind of artificially demanded.
01:18:58.720 Yeah, I understand all that, and I mean, I'm familiar with those arguments, but—and I think that, like, now where we are, it's almost—
01:19:08.480 We were so dominated by this electronic fiat, Federal Reserve-type stuff, which did have its origins in usury and gold notes and then, you know, like, printing more gold notes than you had actual gold and all that.
01:19:22.460 I mean, that's what Quigley goes into, and that's the irony, of course, of the libertarians is that they'll talk all day about tragedy and hope in Quigley,
01:19:28.960 but they forget that—quigley says that the gold-backed currency and the libertarian philosophies of the 1700s, that's all the banker plot.
01:19:40.220 So I'd love to hear Ron Paul respond at some point to Carol Quigley talking about Ron Paul's philosophy being the beta version of the banker plot,
01:19:51.760 and now we live in banker plot 2.0 with digital currencies and all this kind of stuff.
01:19:56.980 Anyway, but I don't know.
01:19:58.800 I mean, I think that at a local level, you could make an argument that—I guess it depends on how you define usury,
01:20:05.540 because, for example, if I have a lot of capital or if I own something and someone comes to me with a business venture
01:20:18.500 and they want to borrow or they want money, I'm taking a risk by giving them the money for whatever their venture is.
01:20:33.100 Now, if it's charity, that's something different.
01:20:35.300 But if they're wanting to start a business or something like that, then I'm participating in the risk of this,
01:20:42.160 and I don't think that you could use Christian charity to argue that, like, I'm somehow bound to have to help somebody start a business or something.
01:20:50.020 I'm not bound by that.
01:20:51.200 So now some people will define this as the most basic example of usury, that if I expect a return for the money that somebody borrows from me for some business venture,
01:21:03.260 most people, what I think, say that that's, like, basic usury.
01:21:06.820 I mean, I'm not sure I have a problem with that.
01:21:09.240 I don't see why it would be wrong for somebody to expect—
01:21:13.860 I would tend to agree with you.
01:21:15.580 I mean, obviously, I know I think that you're correct.
01:21:18.500 And, I mean, when you give out a loan at risk, you're providing a service that has a real, like, quantifiable, you know, market value.
01:21:27.660 We're talking about something else, though, obviously, when we're talking about, like, these giant international banks and Ponzi schemes and all that.
01:21:33.960 That's obviously a total scam.
01:21:35.640 And so it's kind of, you know, it's not—one of the things I've been thinking—here's what I'll say to this.
01:21:42.040 One of the things I've been thinking about lately is—and I have a very high view of the Old Testament law, which I know Dr. Johnson does as well.
01:21:52.580 So biblical law, for example, I think can still inform a lot of our practice and approach to the world nowadays.
01:21:59.100 And I kind of come out of a theonomic tradition when I was a Protestant.
01:22:03.960 Yeah, we're familiar.
01:22:04.800 We actually had a gentleman on that we were going to discuss that with.
01:22:07.540 But, yeah, no, go on.
01:22:08.560 I'm familiar.
01:22:08.880 Yeah, well, I was a hardcore Reconstructionist theonomist for a long time.
01:22:12.600 So a lot of those principles I still apply.
01:22:15.080 And I think if you look at something like, you know, the Code of Justinian, you'll see some of those basic principles applied in Justinian's law as well.
01:22:22.320 So I think that it's very—obviously very true with orthodoxies, you know, if you read St. Philorad or somebody like that, Philorad of Moscow, he'll talk about Christian principles and government and so forth.
01:22:34.480 So anyway, so—but some of these areas are very difficult, very fuzzy.
01:22:39.820 And I would—so if you look at the example of Solomon, and I don't think Solomon was totally a bad guy.
01:22:47.660 I think that for the most part he was a good guy until his latter days of, you know, falling into idolatry and so forth.
01:22:54.500 But we get a lot of good stuff from Solomon, particularly if you look at the story of the woman, the two whores with fighting over the baby.
01:23:04.280 Okay, so when Solomon's going to apply the law to this case, there's no specific example of, like, a penal sanction or a case law that tells Solomon what to do in this case.
01:23:17.800 So Solomon, in his wisdom, right, applies a principle to the situation and resolves it.
01:23:24.780 And he's, of course, lauded in Scripture for his wisdom in this case, right?
01:23:28.080 And so he tells—he says he's going to cut the baby in half, if you recall, right?
01:23:32.120 And then he knows that the real mother of the disputed child, the illegitimate child, is going to allow the other one to have it.
01:23:41.040 Because if she really loves her child, she's not going to want the baby to be cut in half, and she would rather the child be with another person if it's alive.
01:23:48.580 Yeah.
01:23:48.940 So what I'm getting at here is that one thing I've noticed and been thinking about as I studied Christology intently over the last 10 years is that Christology really informs everything.
01:24:00.000 And what we have in Christology is everything that's in the realm of the human is deified, right?
01:24:07.860 Because the human nature of Christ joins the divine nature, and the energies of the divine nature deify the human.
01:24:14.400 And that would include human reason.
01:24:17.540 So human reason, even in aspects of law, requires deification.
01:24:24.940 So what I'm saying is that what you see in that case is Solomon, because he has the Holy Spirit, his reasoning faculties are deified.
01:24:37.140 So he's able to apply divine wisdom to that case.
01:24:39.820 And I think that that's the kind of ideology and approach that we should have in our day, too, to government, is that some of these cases are going to be case-by-case basis.
01:24:52.560 They're going to require human reason.
01:24:54.720 And obviously, we're not dealing with anything like that now.
01:24:56.800 We're so far down the toilet.
01:24:58.160 But who knows who might be listening to this podcast?
01:25:00.620 Of course.
01:25:01.680 Of course.
01:25:02.260 Well, in fact, that's exactly what we hear.
01:25:04.980 500 years from now, somebody might be listening to this podcast.
01:25:09.920 It's true.
01:25:10.620 It's true.
01:25:11.120 I'm serious.
01:25:11.800 No, it is.
01:25:12.320 It's very possible, right, if the instanton does not arrive first.
01:25:15.080 But that's what you've described as exactly kind of what we're about here at Mysterium is we look at ourselves as – I mean, essentially, like logos fascism.
01:25:24.820 And so we see – we're going to talk about this later on, but we see – when we talk about fascism or small NS national socialism, what we're really talking about is the application of divine law manifest in the logos, the person of Jesus Christ, to our contemporary situation.
01:25:43.180 And we think that these are the best bywords to describe that particular political philosophy.
01:25:50.400 Anyway, but that's something that we're going to get into.
01:25:52.420 We've gone past our time, so we're going to go ahead and have a break, and then we'll come back in the second segment, and we'll talk about conspiracy culture, racist liberalism, theology, and maybe some Kali Yuga news.
01:26:05.600 So stay tuned.
01:26:06.200 Okay.
01:26:13.180 So stay tuned.
01:26:43.180 So stay tuned.

01:29:03.960 So redet mir die glückliche Tag,
01:29:09.080 Bis mach ich dich lieber noch.
01:29:13.000 So redet mir die glückliche Tag,
01:29:19.400 Bis mach ich dich lieber noch.
01:29:27.520 So wohl dir, so umerwunden,
01:29:43.920 Das Vogelsang ist gesunden,
01:29:51.060 Heiß ist der Linden ihr Laub,
01:29:54.720 Ja lacham trubend mir auch,
01:29:58.940 Mien johol standen auch.
01:30:04.320 Welcome back to Mysterium Faschis,
01:30:08.000 Episode 15, Part 2.
01:30:11.280 So before the break,
01:30:12.180 we covered an incredibly broad range of subjects.
01:30:16.880 And now we're going to talk
01:30:18.060 about a couple of different things.
01:30:19.620 I think that what we'll begin with is,
01:30:25.320 hmm, I think what we'll discuss is,
01:30:30.620 we'll touch a little bit on conspiracy culture,
01:30:33.700 and then we'll talk a little bit about racist liberalism.
01:30:36.600 So one of the very,
01:30:38.320 one of the things that we talked about this,
01:30:41.520 the alt-right,
01:30:42.440 is that there has been a complete kind of failure
01:30:44.780 to produce a cogent worldview.
01:30:47.960 That's because a lot of people in the alt-right
01:30:49.560 do not share the same worldview.
01:30:51.380 They're what we would call racist liberals.
01:30:52.960 They're not traditionalists.
01:30:54.880 But we're going to get into that a little bit later.
01:30:57.620 And so, Jay,
01:30:58.400 I think that you were perfectly correct
01:30:59.920 when there was the shooting in Texas.
01:31:01.860 You went on red ice,
01:31:02.740 and you kind of critiqued the alt-right
01:31:04.080 for, you know,
01:31:05.280 accepting the mainstream narrative.
01:31:06.740 And we talked about this before.
01:31:09.420 Do you know what,
01:31:10.240 are you familiar with TRS,
01:31:11.460 therightstuff.biz?
01:31:14.640 I've heard of it, yeah.
01:31:16.020 Right.
01:31:16.320 Well, we used to be at therightstuff.biz,
01:31:18.540 and, you know,
01:31:19.160 Spies and myself,
01:31:20.000 we were critiqued, basically,
01:31:21.900 for questioning the mainstream narrative.
01:31:26.220 Yeah.
01:31:26.580 I used to always get a lot of problems
01:31:30.580 because I would bring up, you know,
01:31:32.620 like 9-11 as, you know,
01:31:35.240 not being,
01:31:36.840 as being bullshit, basically,
01:31:37.980 or the official story being bullshit,
01:31:39.660 you know.
01:31:41.460 And, you know,
01:31:42.120 you can lay out the evidence,
01:31:44.120 you can show, like,
01:31:45.100 the, like,
01:31:46.500 Corbett's 9-11 in five minutes,
01:31:48.720 which I think is, you know,
01:31:49.660 a great video.
01:31:52.680 And then you get attacked,
01:31:53.960 like, oh,
01:31:54.480 this is just crazy talk,
01:31:56.140 why would they do this?
01:31:57.340 But then the same people attacking you
01:31:59.540 will turn right around
01:32:00.480 and show,
01:32:01.620 explain to you,
01:32:02.640 paragraph by paragraph,
01:32:03.840 how the Holocaust is a total
01:32:05.540 exaggeration.
01:32:06.940 Right.
01:32:07.160 And, you know,
01:32:07.860 so,
01:32:08.440 you're not really being consistent
01:32:10.580 with,
01:32:11.460 in your...
01:32:12.520 Yeah, we don't like conspiracy theories,
01:32:14.060 but we're definitely,
01:32:14.940 it's okay to question the Holocaust,
01:32:16.400 right?
01:32:17.100 Yeah.
01:32:17.620 And, but that's the thing is,
01:32:18.500 we see this also in conspiracy culture,
01:32:20.120 you get the exact opposite,
01:32:21.400 where everything is on the table,
01:32:23.100 but if you deny the Holocaust,
01:32:24.540 you know,
01:32:24.720 or you even engage in revisionism,
01:32:27.380 right,
01:32:27.680 about the,
01:32:28.080 like,
01:32:28.340 death figures,
01:32:29.240 right,
01:32:29.700 gas chambers,
01:32:30.480 that sort of stuff,
01:32:31.720 that's,
01:32:32.340 that's,
01:32:32.740 that's beyond the pale.
01:32:35.000 So,
01:32:35.520 I mean,
01:32:35.640 everything,
01:32:36.040 everything,
01:32:36.660 everything is unfortunately
01:32:38.120 stuck within some
01:32:41.160 very broad
01:32:42.120 thing that you're supposed
01:32:45.860 to be labeled as,
01:32:47.040 like,
01:32:47.440 so,
01:32:47.940 you know,
01:32:48.200 there's only supposed to be,
01:32:49.160 like,
01:32:49.260 three or four options here,
01:32:50.480 and that's really ridiculous,
01:32:51.920 because life isn't boiled down
01:32:53.680 to three or four options of,
01:32:55.420 oh,
01:32:55.920 are you a liberal,
01:32:56.800 are you a Ron Paul Tea Party guy,
01:32:59.780 or are you alt-right?
01:33:01.120 I mean,
01:33:03.140 there's,
01:33:03.540 like,
01:33:03.880 other options in the world,
01:33:06.020 there's not just these three or four,
01:33:08.360 but everything is so dumbed down
01:33:09.860 that,
01:33:10.680 you know,
01:33:11.040 it's,
01:33:11.480 if you try to,
01:33:12.420 what I try to do,
01:33:13.400 if you try to take things
01:33:14.380 on a case-by-case basis,
01:33:16.340 to look at each individual thing
01:33:17.880 and try to understand it
01:33:19.520 on its own merits
01:33:20.520 and whatnot,
01:33:21.940 I mean,
01:33:22.580 that's just,
01:33:23.520 that people are so,
01:33:26.020 that's so far outside
01:33:27.440 of the norm
01:33:28.440 that it's,
01:33:29.380 it is very difficult,
01:33:30.700 so.
01:33:31.120 Right,
01:33:32.940 well,
01:33:33.160 and I think that this is a,
01:33:34.140 in other words,
01:33:34.440 I should be able to investigate 9-11,
01:33:37.280 apart,
01:33:38.820 I mean,
01:33:38.980 it has nothing,
01:33:39.540 that has nothing to do with
01:33:41.060 what the alt-right
01:33:43.200 majority view of 9-11 is,
01:33:46.820 right?
01:33:47.120 I mean,
01:33:47.340 what happened on 9-11
01:33:48.480 is in no way
01:33:49.660 should be connected to,
01:33:51.160 or is not determined by,
01:33:52.860 you know,
01:33:54.420 Richard Spencer's view of 9-11.
01:33:56.900 And I,
01:33:57.860 obviously,
01:33:58.380 I disagree with Richard Spencer
01:33:59.500 on 9-11,
01:34:00.180 so,
01:34:00.400 Yeah,
01:34:02.440 and I think that the problem
01:34:03.660 is with the alt-right
01:34:04.720 is that there is not,
01:34:05.920 there's not an agreement
01:34:07.360 on the worldview,
01:34:08.280 and that's really
01:34:08.820 the most important thing.
01:34:10.180 I mean,
01:34:11.000 if you,
01:34:11.520 if you agree
01:34:12.180 on core metaphysical principles,
01:34:14.740 then you can diverge
01:34:16.100 in terms of
01:34:16.840 the application
01:34:17.620 of those principles
01:34:18.280 to a particular situation.
01:34:20.560 Yeah,
01:34:20.940 right,
01:34:21.400 right.
01:34:21.600 And,
01:34:22.100 you know,
01:34:22.920 I understand Richard
01:34:24.000 and Andy's
01:34:25.920 approach
01:34:28.140 to a broad coalition
01:34:29.780 and,
01:34:30.300 you know,
01:34:30.720 Dugan talks about
01:34:31.440 a broad coalition
01:34:32.280 of anti-liberals,
01:34:33.100 and I,
01:34:33.720 I don't have a problem
01:34:35.560 with that idea
01:34:36.340 given the dangers
01:34:38.140 of Western materialism
01:34:41.080 and,
01:34:41.340 and,
01:34:42.400 and liberalism
01:34:43.500 and so forth.
01:34:44.140 But,
01:34:44.820 you know,
01:34:45.260 I mean,
01:34:45.720 there's going to be
01:34:47.860 inter-Nicene debates
01:34:49.160 within these camps
01:34:50.260 and it's just
01:34:50.860 a natural process
01:34:51.980 and I,
01:34:52.400 I think that
01:34:53.100 over time
01:34:54.220 I really do believe
01:34:55.460 the truth wins out.
01:34:56.660 So,
01:34:57.380 you know,
01:34:57.640 I'm not,
01:34:57.840 I'm not too worried
01:34:58.520 about it.
01:34:59.480 Right.
01:35:00.080 Well,
01:35:00.260 that's something
01:35:00.640 that we're
01:35:01.240 kind of big on here
01:35:02.640 is that we just
01:35:03.380 talk about,
01:35:04.040 you know,
01:35:04.740 I just kind of get
01:35:05.400 to the heart
01:35:05.800 of the matter
01:35:06.200 is
01:35:06.520 what we see
01:35:10.180 as the fundamentally
01:35:11.140 like the most
01:35:11.980 important thing
01:35:12.780 is not really
01:35:13.860 ideology,
01:35:15.440 but it's theology.
01:35:16.880 I mean,
01:35:17.100 it's your core
01:35:18.380 metaphysical principles,
01:35:20.320 the,
01:35:20.460 the things that you believe
01:35:21.760 about the highest echelon
01:35:23.000 of reality
01:35:23.600 that ultimately
01:35:24.280 end up affecting
01:35:25.080 your entire worldview
01:35:26.620 and the way you behave
01:35:27.400 in everyday life.
01:35:29.380 And so what's important
01:35:30.360 for us,
01:35:30.940 what we
01:35:31.280 emphasize again
01:35:33.120 and again and again
01:35:33.920 is that it's this worldview
01:35:35.200 that's critical.
01:35:36.300 Are you,
01:35:36.820 are you a traditionalist
01:35:37.900 in the real sense?
01:35:38.720 Do you reject
01:35:39.360 the modern world?
01:35:41.820 And that's
01:35:42.740 what we see
01:35:43.420 as the critical thing.
01:35:44.660 And so,
01:35:45.700 you know,
01:35:45.980 there are lots of people
01:35:46.720 and so,
01:35:47.140 you know,
01:35:47.340 we,
01:35:47.540 we feel that
01:35:48.360 when we say,
01:35:49.140 you know,
01:35:49.380 small NS national socialism
01:35:51.560 that this is
01:35:52.800 the most appropriate
01:35:53.800 way to describe
01:35:55.180 a total rejection
01:35:56.920 of the modern world.
01:35:58.500 However,
01:35:58.960 obviously,
01:35:59.320 there's some,
01:35:59.900 you know,
01:36:00.180 issues with that.
01:36:01.040 You know,
01:36:01.160 obviously,
01:36:01.880 you know,
01:36:02.720 fascism was a,
01:36:03.860 was a explicitly
01:36:05.360 modernist movement,
01:36:06.520 right?
01:36:08.320 National socialism
01:36:09.280 in many senses
01:36:10.120 was explicitly
01:36:10.880 a modernist movement,
01:36:12.140 you know,
01:36:13.240 but we also see
01:36:13.980 emanations of this,
01:36:14.900 like with Codrianu
01:36:15.940 and Romania
01:36:16.820 and the Iron Guard
01:36:17.640 that was,
01:36:18.400 you know,
01:36:18.900 one devoutly
01:36:20.560 orthodox
01:36:21.100 and did actually
01:36:22.920 agree with us
01:36:23.540 on all of these
01:36:24.020 metaphysical issues.
01:36:26.280 So,
01:36:27.120 well,
01:36:28.240 I tend to agree
01:36:28.900 with,
01:36:29.340 you know,
01:36:31.260 sort of the,
01:36:31.900 the basic
01:36:32.700 monarchic principle
01:36:34.040 or the Byzantine
01:36:36.960 principle of
01:36:37.700 symfonia.
01:36:38.640 So,
01:36:39.040 you know,
01:36:39.800 that's my view.
01:36:41.160 Well,
01:36:41.220 I tend to agree.
01:36:42.220 And I mean,
01:36:42.560 that's the thing is before,
01:36:43.740 are you familiar
01:36:44.220 with like neo-reaction?
01:36:46.640 I think so.
01:36:47.980 Yeah,
01:36:48.340 well,
01:36:48.600 there was a movement
01:36:49.820 that kind of was
01:36:50.500 sparked on the internet
01:36:51.400 that kind of got me
01:36:52.240 into this whole
01:36:52.740 political scene,
01:36:53.440 which was kind
01:36:53.880 of neo-reaction,
01:36:55.200 which was a return
01:36:56.260 to,
01:36:56.920 you know,
01:36:57.460 monarchism
01:36:58.300 and,
01:36:59.260 you know,
01:37:00.040 Catholic,
01:37:00.820 you know,
01:37:01.040 high Middle Ages
01:37:01.880 type political theory,
01:37:04.700 right?
01:37:05.700 And I agree with you.
01:37:07.180 I mean,
01:37:07.360 in essence,
01:37:07.880 I essentially,
01:37:08.560 I mean,
01:37:08.780 I'm a monarchist
01:37:09.780 and I'm highly skeptical
01:37:11.900 of centralized state power,
01:37:14.000 you know?
01:37:14.300 So if you want to get
01:37:15.060 really LARP-y,
01:37:15.760 it's like go Confederate
01:37:16.600 monarchy is the ideal
01:37:17.680 system or whatever.
01:37:20.840 Yeah,
01:37:21.440 I mean,
01:37:22.960 I'm glad that you mentioned
01:37:24.340 it being LARP-y
01:37:25.760 because one of the things
01:37:27.620 that I realized,
01:37:28.840 I'm not,
01:37:29.220 this is not me
01:37:30.060 bitching at you guys
01:37:30.980 or anything,
01:37:31.280 but I was super idealistic
01:37:33.080 in my 20s.
01:37:33.840 So I was like a hardcore
01:37:34.620 traditional Catholic monarchist
01:37:36.200 and all this.
01:37:36.820 And then,
01:37:37.400 you know,
01:37:37.920 as I developed
01:37:38.840 into my 30s
01:37:39.920 and now I'm approaching
01:37:42.520 amazingly the end
01:37:44.160 of my 30s,
01:37:44.860 I was,
01:37:45.960 I think I got a much
01:37:48.340 better grasp
01:37:49.380 on the,
01:37:52.000 like your views
01:37:53.560 have to be,
01:37:55.320 have to,
01:37:56.500 what am I trying
01:37:57.260 to say?
01:37:57.620 the ideal
01:38:00.040 has to match up
01:38:01.080 to the real
01:38:01.660 and I don't,
01:38:02.460 I mean that
01:38:02.780 in a Marxist sense,
01:38:04.800 like praxis
01:38:05.300 or something like that.
01:38:06.000 I just mean that,
01:38:07.040 that it's good
01:38:09.080 and well
01:38:09.840 to have all of these,
01:38:10.780 you know,
01:38:11.320 sort of idealistic
01:38:12.580 internet-based ideas.
01:38:14.420 Right, yeah.
01:38:15.120 But then we also live
01:38:16.280 in a real world
01:38:17.060 that's like totally
01:38:18.180 100%
01:38:19.380 the opposite of that.
01:38:21.140 And I'm not saying
01:38:21.760 that you guys
01:38:22.200 don't realize that.
01:38:23.080 I'm not saying that at all.
01:38:24.280 I'm just saying
01:38:24.720 that like,
01:38:25.640 so like when I was
01:38:26.820 into this stuff
01:38:27.380 10 years ago
01:38:28.080 on the internet,
01:38:28.720 nobody was into this.
01:38:29.680 I'm not bragging,
01:38:30.560 I'm not saying that
01:38:31.240 like I was,
01:38:32.860 like I'm not.
01:38:33.800 Jay Dyer,
01:38:34.300 theological hipster.
01:38:37.280 Well, I mean,
01:38:37.840 I was reading a lot
01:38:38.800 of this Monarchist stuff
01:38:39.960 and like I read
01:38:41.240 all of David Duke's
01:38:42.160 stuff 10 years ago.
01:38:43.300 I read Yaki,
01:38:44.180 I read Spangler,
01:38:45.020 I read all this stuff
01:38:45.600 like 10 years ago
01:38:46.380 and like nobody
01:38:47.140 believed this.
01:38:48.180 So I just didn't even
01:38:49.580 think there was any point
01:38:50.460 in talking about
01:38:51.160 any of this stuff
01:38:51.880 because it,
01:38:53.440 like who are you
01:38:54.080 going to talk to
01:38:54.620 about it?
01:38:55.260 Like there might be
01:38:55.880 one,
01:38:56.320 there might be
01:38:57.320 one forum,
01:38:58.240 right?
01:38:58.480 And then you're like,
01:38:59.500 well,
01:38:59.660 this forum's probably
01:39:00.300 run by a bunch of feds.
01:39:01.480 So like,
01:39:01.840 what's the point
01:39:02.340 of even going?
01:39:03.160 Right.
01:39:04.020 So I just gave up
01:39:05.200 even talking about it
01:39:06.240 and didn't,
01:39:06.960 I wasn't involved
01:39:07.580 in any movements
01:39:08.440 and just kind of
01:39:10.020 settled into just kind
01:39:12.140 of having,
01:39:12.640 having fun
01:39:13.140 and doing things
01:39:13.760 my way with like
01:39:14.960 the local,
01:39:15.780 like working in a
01:39:16.940 Rand Paul campaign
01:39:17.800 or something like that.
01:39:18.640 Cause again,
01:39:19.980 I mean,
01:39:20.220 nobody,
01:39:20.540 I didn't even know
01:39:21.220 anybody that knew
01:39:21.760 about this stuff
01:39:22.240 except for like two
01:39:22.840 friends.
01:39:23.120 I had two friends
01:39:23.980 that knew about
01:39:24.960 any of this stuff.
01:39:26.100 So it's very surprising.
01:39:27.420 I never would have
01:39:28.220 guessed any of this
01:39:28.820 stuff would be
01:39:29.540 get such a resurgence.
01:39:31.820 You know,
01:39:32.560 10 years ago,
01:39:33.500 nobody knew who
01:39:34.040 Avila was.
01:39:35.040 Like you can talk
01:39:35.840 to like two people.
01:39:36.560 Right.
01:39:36.860 Well now he's basically
01:39:37.800 a household name
01:39:38.420 on the far right.
01:39:39.660 Which is very strange.
01:39:41.840 But,
01:39:42.080 so what I'm getting at
01:39:44.280 is just that,
01:39:45.140 you know,
01:39:45.760 I understand that
01:39:47.060 these things through
01:39:47.620 the internet,
01:39:48.140 this stuff can,
01:39:49.000 you know,
01:39:49.740 spill out into reality
01:39:50.900 and you can't have
01:39:51.520 change.
01:39:52.980 There's a lot more
01:39:53.880 possibilities,
01:39:55.140 you know,
01:39:55.400 as I was saying earlier
01:39:56.480 than I would have
01:39:57.080 dreamed of 10 years ago.
01:39:58.680 But,
01:39:59.340 so,
01:40:01.100 I,
01:40:01.580 in my view,
01:40:02.580 I just,
01:40:03.140 I just hope for
01:40:04.180 the alteration perhaps
01:40:06.100 of the existing
01:40:06.800 structures.
01:40:07.340 I'd appreciate that
01:40:08.400 approach of Dugan
01:40:09.280 that,
01:40:10.140 you know,
01:40:10.400 he,
01:40:10.640 he doesn't think
01:40:11.480 that you can have
01:40:12.320 like a,
01:40:14.540 like,
01:40:15.180 I mean,
01:40:15.380 I'm,
01:40:15.620 I'm for the new
01:40:16.480 right movements
01:40:17.280 like Le Pen
01:40:18.000 and these things.
01:40:19.060 They're not as perfect
01:40:20.300 as I,
01:40:20.680 as I'd like them
01:40:21.440 to be,
01:40:21.900 but,
01:40:22.240 but I think
01:40:24.040 that if,
01:40:25.660 you have to,
01:40:26.320 you almost have to
01:40:27.080 kind of take over
01:40:28.620 the existing structures.
01:40:29.620 That's one of the things
01:40:30.600 I liked about Trump.
01:40:31.940 Right.
01:40:32.520 Was that I think
01:40:33.180 he did attempt
01:40:33.840 to do that,
01:40:35.100 even though he's
01:40:35.760 not perfect.
01:40:37.360 Because I don't think,
01:40:38.460 I don't think you can
01:40:39.480 like start a whole
01:40:40.720 other thing.
01:40:41.520 I'm not saying
01:40:41.960 you guys are saying
01:40:42.660 that,
01:40:42.940 but the ideal
01:40:44.240 has to mesh
01:40:45.000 with the real.
01:40:45.600 And so I think
01:40:46.300 that,
01:40:46.700 right.
01:40:46.780 We,
01:40:46.920 we talked about
01:40:47.560 this,
01:40:47.900 you know,
01:40:48.080 a lot.
01:40:48.800 And basically
01:40:49.380 the conclusion
01:40:49.960 that,
01:40:50.340 you know,
01:40:50.560 we,
01:40:50.820 we've come to
01:40:51.600 is,
01:40:51.760 is thus,
01:40:52.440 right?
01:40:53.360 For me,
01:40:53.720 I can speak
01:40:54.140 from my own
01:40:54.520 personal philosophy
01:40:55.260 and then I can
01:40:55.920 speak kind of
01:40:56.500 in general
01:40:56.960 what we advocate
01:40:57.660 in terms of
01:40:58.120 tactics.
01:40:59.360 I want to be
01:40:59.880 here's what I'd
01:41:01.220 say.
01:41:01.500 I say we should
01:41:02.560 adopt a lot
01:41:03.340 of those left
01:41:03.840 tactics.
01:41:04.500 And that's what I
01:41:05.040 think.
01:41:05.400 The reason that
01:41:05.920 the alt-right
01:41:06.360 was successful
01:41:07.040 was that they
01:41:07.500 started using
01:41:08.380 Alinsky-style
01:41:09.660 tactics against
01:41:10.520 the left
01:41:10.980 online.
01:41:11.820 Precisely,
01:41:12.120 I was saying
01:41:13.800 people,
01:41:14.260 I'm not bragging
01:41:15.060 because nobody
01:41:15.460 listened to me
01:41:16.040 10 years ago,
01:41:16.800 but I said
01:41:17.280 10 years ago
01:41:17.820 people should
01:41:18.240 be doing that,
01:41:18.940 but nobody,
01:41:19.760 I had a blog
01:41:20.300 back then that,
01:41:21.040 you know,
01:41:21.220 nobody was really
01:41:21.780 listening to.
01:41:22.520 So,
01:41:23.000 but,
01:41:23.320 I don't know,
01:41:25.500 I just,
01:41:25.840 you know what,
01:41:26.240 I should have
01:41:26.580 just kept blogging
01:41:27.400 because that'd be
01:41:28.020 like 10 times
01:41:28.740 more prominent
01:41:29.320 than I am now
01:41:30.020 if I had not
01:41:31.420 given it up
01:41:31.960 10 years ago.
01:41:32.800 there is,
01:41:34.360 there's a Bible
01:41:34.860 where I think
01:41:35.540 really captures
01:41:36.420 all of this
01:41:36.920 pretty good
01:41:37.380 and that's
01:41:37.820 the kingdom of
01:41:38.400 God is not
01:41:39.280 of this world.
01:41:40.660 We can't really
01:41:41.480 get this
01:41:42.040 perfect
01:41:42.620 devolvian
01:41:43.360 trad-shad
01:41:44.380 monarchy
01:41:44.840 or whatever
01:41:45.220 when I call it
01:41:45.860 in this world.
01:41:46.700 I mean,
01:41:46.960 this is just
01:41:47.540 beyond what
01:41:48.320 you can get here.
01:41:49.420 I mean,
01:41:49.640 we can get
01:41:50.140 like a virtue
01:41:51.120 season,
01:41:51.620 but we can't
01:41:52.140 really get
01:41:52.560 this great
01:41:54.580 absolute monarch.
01:41:55.960 Well,
01:41:56.420 look though,
01:41:56.800 here's something
01:41:57.400 that occurred
01:41:57.920 to me,
01:41:58.520 like,
01:41:59.560 I was talking
01:42:00.120 about this
01:42:00.500 in the
01:42:00.940 Orthodoxy
01:42:02.060 and the
01:42:02.220 Religion of
01:42:02.640 Future
01:42:02.880 talk I did.
01:42:03.580 You know,
01:42:05.160 so to prepare
01:42:06.080 for the spread
01:42:06.640 of Christianity,
01:42:07.540 a lot of
01:42:07.920 theologians
01:42:08.860 from various
01:42:09.780 traditions
01:42:10.160 have argued
01:42:10.720 that Koine
01:42:11.840 Greek
01:42:12.420 is what
01:42:13.060 helped make
01:42:14.240 Christianity
01:42:14.760 successful
01:42:15.440 early on
01:42:16.080 because you
01:42:16.760 had a common
01:42:17.420 language that
01:42:18.020 spread through
01:42:18.540 Alexander's
01:42:19.340 conquest.
01:42:21.060 So perhaps,
01:42:22.440 and I'm just
01:42:22.840 throwing this out
01:42:23.420 as a possibility,
01:42:24.420 I mean,
01:42:24.600 we don't know
01:42:25.200 what's coming
01:42:26.680 in the future.
01:42:27.300 There's all
01:42:27.620 kinds of
01:42:28.060 possibilities.
01:42:28.620 And so the
01:42:29.680 internet could
01:42:30.500 be like the
01:42:31.140 Koine Greek
01:42:31.920 of our
01:42:32.320 day for
01:42:33.660 the spread
01:42:34.340 of,
01:42:34.940 you know,
01:42:36.220 Orthodox
01:42:36.600 theology and
01:42:37.920 a total
01:42:38.440 change.
01:42:39.140 We just
01:42:39.600 don't know.
01:42:40.020 We don't
01:42:40.220 have to
01:42:40.580 have these,
01:42:41.160 you know,
01:42:43.300 Achilleastic
01:42:44.200 negative
01:42:44.880 approaches to
01:42:46.040 the world
01:42:46.840 and to the
01:42:47.360 future.
01:42:48.820 Yeah.
01:42:49.440 We're not,
01:42:50.760 like,
01:42:51.020 we're not,
01:42:52.320 you know,
01:42:52.560 here's the thing
01:42:53.200 is sometimes
01:42:53.560 we get in
01:42:54.460 the far right
01:42:55.580 is you get
01:42:56.040 kind of this
01:42:56.400 reverse Marxism
01:42:57.380 except instead
01:42:57.980 of class
01:42:58.440 struggle.
01:42:58.960 It's like
01:42:59.160 the race
01:42:59.560 war.
01:43:01.000 And,
01:43:01.260 like,
01:43:01.360 the race
01:43:01.680 war is this
01:43:02.240 scientific
01:43:02.920 inevitable
01:43:03.660 fact that
01:43:04.960 must and
01:43:05.660 will occur
01:43:06.200 because of,
01:43:06.780 like,
01:43:06.940 competing in
01:43:08.180 groups.
01:43:10.100 You know,
01:43:10.340 I mean,
01:43:10.580 there's a
01:43:10.880 certain level
01:43:11.480 of truth
01:43:11.960 to,
01:43:12.420 you know,
01:43:12.780 different groups
01:43:13.600 together
01:43:13.960 competing
01:43:14.460 for resources.
01:43:15.220 There's going
01:43:15.460 to be
01:43:15.640 conflict,
01:43:16.440 but I also
01:43:18.080 think that
01:43:18.480 the future
01:43:19.080 is not set.
01:43:20.640 Well,
01:43:21.060 the internet
01:43:21.700 has enabled
01:43:22.460 the alt-right.
01:43:23.300 I never
01:43:23.520 would have
01:43:23.760 dreamed of
01:43:24.100 this 10
01:43:24.480 years ago.
01:43:25.240 So,
01:43:26.360 again,
01:43:26.880 what does
01:43:27.280 that say?
01:43:27.680 Well,
01:43:27.840 that says
01:43:28.320 that there's
01:43:28.640 all kinds
01:43:29.060 of possibilities
01:43:29.820 for the
01:43:30.320 future.
01:43:31.600 Yeah.
01:43:32.220 I mean,
01:43:32.620 the problem
01:43:33.000 is that,
01:43:33.440 you know,
01:43:33.640 it still has
01:43:34.200 to manifest
01:43:34.640 itself outside
01:43:35.560 the internet.
01:43:36.960 Right.
01:43:37.400 But,
01:43:38.200 I mean,
01:43:38.600 I agree
01:43:39.180 that the
01:43:39.700 internet
01:43:39.940 has done
01:43:40.260 a lot.
01:43:40.600 I mean,
01:43:40.740 without the
01:43:41.380 internet,
01:43:42.520 I mean,
01:43:42.720 I wouldn't
01:43:43.020 know about
01:43:43.420 Spangler,
01:43:43.840 I wouldn't
01:43:43.980 read Spangler,
01:43:44.520 I wouldn't,
01:43:44.960 you know,
01:43:45.460 have heard of
01:43:46.200 Evola or
01:43:47.240 any of these
01:43:48.080 guys.
01:43:49.320 Right.
01:43:49.660 It would probably
01:43:50.080 be some
01:43:51.260 Noemi or
01:43:52.280 whatever you want
01:43:52.800 to say.
01:43:54.460 Well,
01:43:54.900 I mean,
01:43:55.100 even Trump,
01:43:56.540 who could have
01:43:57.220 seen that,
01:43:57.880 like,
01:43:58.160 even two years
01:43:59.440 ago?
01:43:59.740 And then
01:44:00.480 all the stuff
01:44:01.180 that he's just
01:44:01.780 brought up in
01:44:02.580 his campaign
01:44:03.200 or even so
01:44:03.920 far.
01:44:04.500 I mean,
01:44:04.700 that's huge.
01:44:06.280 Yeah.
01:44:06.540 I mean,
01:44:06.900 this is to
01:44:08.420 stretch it a bit,
01:44:09.080 but you could
01:44:09.520 kind of see
01:44:10.140 Trump as a
01:44:11.240 Spanglerian,
01:44:12.120 Anglo-Caeser
01:44:12.900 figure.
01:44:13.800 I mean,
01:44:14.040 he doesn't
01:44:14.540 compete with
01:44:15.440 the legions
01:44:16.400 like a Germanic
01:44:17.680 general Caesar
01:44:18.560 would do.
01:44:19.520 Spangler pointed
01:44:20.020 out in,
01:44:20.660 I think it was
01:44:20.980 Prussianism and
01:44:21.580 Socialism,
01:44:22.040 but he uses
01:44:22.760 the shekel to
01:44:23.780 fight the shekel.
01:44:25.340 And he's
01:44:26.180 winning.
01:44:28.240 Now,
01:44:28.780 maybe he's a
01:44:29.480 part of the
01:44:29.860 establishment.
01:44:30.440 I mean,
01:44:30.760 it's hard to
01:44:31.580 know because,
01:44:32.420 I mean,
01:44:32.620 much of these
01:44:33.160 things we
01:44:33.480 actually do
01:44:34.000 not know.
01:44:35.020 We're guessing.
01:44:36.180 We're like
01:44:36.480 trying to make
01:44:37.520 a theory with
01:44:38.820 some dots of
01:44:39.580 light.
01:44:41.100 But still,
01:44:42.360 time will
01:44:42.980 tell.
01:44:44.520 Absolutely.
01:44:45.700 Yeah.
01:44:46.080 So going back
01:44:46.640 to what I was
01:44:47.280 saying was that,
01:44:48.260 yeah,
01:44:48.440 I mean,
01:44:48.600 I think you're
01:44:48.980 right,
01:44:49.240 Jay.
01:44:49.520 And I think
01:44:50.020 that this is
01:44:50.360 something that
01:44:50.780 I've argued
01:44:51.340 a lot on
01:44:52.640 this program
01:44:53.380 is that,
01:44:54.160 I mean,
01:44:55.140 the reason why
01:44:56.760 we're in this
01:44:57.360 precarious political
01:44:58.120 situation is like
01:44:59.320 a decline of
01:44:59.960 virtue.
01:45:00.940 I mean,
01:45:01.180 that's it.
01:45:02.260 If we had
01:45:03.240 retained a
01:45:04.540 society full of
01:45:05.660 virtuous people,
01:45:07.420 we never would
01:45:08.080 have ever gotten
01:45:08.740 to the situation
01:45:09.600 where we
01:45:10.960 experienced the
01:45:11.540 cultural Marxism
01:45:12.360 or the foreign
01:45:13.440 invasion that we're
01:45:14.360 experiencing now
01:45:15.120 in Europe.
01:45:16.720 And so fundamentally,
01:45:17.900 like that's,
01:45:18.700 for me,
01:45:19.040 like I want to be
01:45:19.940 a priest,
01:45:20.460 right?
01:45:20.600 I want to be an
01:45:20.980 Orthodox priest.
01:45:21.660 I don't want to be
01:45:22.240 a politician because
01:45:23.400 I think that the
01:45:24.140 direct issue is one
01:45:25.320 that's spiritual.
01:45:26.080 Exactly.
01:45:27.160 I mean,
01:45:27.420 the politician
01:45:28.740 will always have
01:45:29.500 to compromise
01:45:29.960 and all this
01:45:30.380 stuff.
01:45:30.620 I mean,
01:45:30.760 it is the
01:45:31.560 actual mission
01:45:32.280 of the church
01:45:32.900 to be this
01:45:33.500 rock.
01:45:35.700 You can't have
01:45:36.940 that in the
01:45:37.420 sphere of
01:45:37.720 politics.
01:45:38.660 The priest,
01:45:39.340 the church,
01:45:39.940 must give
01:45:40.760 the morals.
01:45:41.380 That's why
01:45:41.780 everything can
01:45:43.080 be solved
01:45:43.660 to a very large
01:45:44.820 degree,
01:45:45.180 at least,
01:45:45.360 if you actually
01:45:45.840 just have the
01:45:46.520 church back in
01:45:47.160 society.
01:45:48.500 Exactly.
01:45:49.480 Even things
01:45:50.640 that can seem
01:45:51.420 unrelated.
01:45:51.880 For example,
01:45:52.640 let's say,
01:45:54.340 I mean,
01:45:54.500 Sweden,
01:45:54.920 we have a
01:45:55.340 bunch of
01:45:55.740 people basically
01:45:56.560 sitting home
01:45:57.700 alone all the
01:45:58.200 time.
01:45:58.780 Imagine if
01:45:59.460 these people
01:46:00.000 go to church
01:46:00.960 on Sunday.
01:46:01.460 They would
01:46:01.640 meet new
01:46:02.000 people.
01:46:02.920 They would
01:46:03.200 get a sense
01:46:03.660 of meaning
01:46:04.080 in life and
01:46:04.760 all this
01:46:05.100 stuff.
01:46:06.000 But we
01:46:06.640 don't go
01:46:07.020 there because
01:46:07.420 we say,
01:46:08.480 oh,
01:46:08.620 I want to
01:46:09.220 sit at
01:46:09.500 home and
01:46:09.900 I want to,
01:46:10.660 I don't
01:46:10.860 know,
01:46:11.120 watch football
01:46:11.960 or play
01:46:12.480 games or
01:46:13.440 yeah.
01:46:14.960 Yeah,
01:46:15.260 look at it
01:46:15.640 this way.
01:46:16.180 Like,
01:46:16.480 there's a
01:46:16.980 reason why
01:46:17.620 football,
01:46:18.620 I think,
01:46:18.960 is on
01:46:19.380 Sunday because
01:46:20.720 you're going
01:46:21.200 to sit at
01:46:21.880 and watch,
01:46:22.760 you know,
01:46:23.060 it's like
01:46:23.380 what you were
01:46:23.680 saying earlier,
01:46:24.300 Jay,
01:46:24.520 about movies
01:46:25.720 being kind
01:46:26.300 of a ritual.
01:46:27.040 Well,
01:46:27.300 I don't think
01:46:27.900 professional football
01:46:29.100 or any other
01:46:29.820 pro sports is
01:46:30.700 any different.
01:46:32.220 Yeah.
01:46:33.020 I mean,
01:46:33.380 plus,
01:46:33.800 you know,
01:46:34.780 maybe I'm
01:46:35.580 overanalyzing
01:46:36.460 a bit,
01:46:36.900 but I mean,
01:46:37.920 what's a football?
01:46:38.620 It's two teams
01:46:39.220 and they're
01:46:39.500 competing to win
01:46:40.240 for the sake
01:46:40.780 of winning.
01:46:41.580 I mean,
01:46:41.840 that's this,
01:46:42.540 you know,
01:46:42.840 Nietzschean
01:46:43.240 mentality is rising
01:46:44.200 for the sake
01:46:44.680 of rising.
01:46:46.620 While in the
01:46:47.340 church,
01:46:47.640 you don't have
01:46:48.100 that.
01:46:48.300 You have,
01:46:48.820 you know your
01:46:49.500 place,
01:46:49.940 you're supposed
01:46:50.440 to have a
01:46:50.800 certain order
01:46:51.380 and I mean,
01:46:51.980 in the liturgy,
01:46:52.960 every single
01:46:53.980 person has
01:46:55.200 his place.
01:46:56.300 I mean,
01:46:56.460 you have,
01:46:57.040 you know,
01:46:57.520 we have incense,
01:46:58.220 it's beautiful.
01:46:58.800 You have a reader,
01:47:00.440 you have,
01:47:01.000 you know,
01:47:01.380 the deacons,
01:47:02.020 you have the priest,
01:47:02.600 you have the bishop
01:47:03.100 and all this stuff.
01:47:03.740 They all know
01:47:04.360 their place
01:47:04.980 and it's a symphony.
01:47:06.820 It's beautiful.
01:47:07.560 Right.
01:47:08.520 Absolutely,
01:47:09.080 yeah.
01:47:10.180 It points to
01:47:11.320 the eternal
01:47:11.880 and that was
01:47:13.700 the big victory
01:47:14.880 of the devil,
01:47:16.420 you could argue,
01:47:17.160 was the removal
01:47:18.180 of the notion
01:47:19.120 of eternality.
01:47:20.440 and fixity
01:47:22.580 from political
01:47:24.700 and social life
01:47:25.840 and what that did
01:47:26.620 was basically
01:47:27.300 just leave everybody
01:47:28.380 in flux
01:47:29.960 as we've talked
01:47:30.600 about many times
01:47:32.060 and then what happens
01:47:33.220 is the state
01:47:33.880 steps in
01:47:34.400 to fill that void,
01:47:35.440 be it the corporate state,
01:47:36.520 be it the Marxist state,
01:47:37.500 be it whatever state
01:47:38.220 you want
01:47:38.640 and it becomes
01:47:40.380 the new god
01:47:40.980 and it becomes
01:47:41.540 the new,
01:47:42.260 you know.
01:47:43.380 Are you,
01:47:43.960 by the way,
01:47:46.800 there's one thing here,
01:47:48.000 I gotta say this
01:47:49.000 before I forget it,
01:47:49.840 that's really,
01:47:50.540 really freaky
01:47:50.980 and you talk about
01:47:51.680 this,
01:47:51.940 how the state
01:47:52.340 becomes god.
01:47:53.880 These transgender
01:47:54.680 people who want,
01:47:55.860 you know,
01:47:56.140 a third legal gender
01:47:57.760 or, you know,
01:47:58.860 want to change
01:47:59.620 legal gender,
01:48:00.160 it's the same thing here.
01:48:01.700 They are so insecure,
01:48:03.000 they want, you know,
01:48:03.840 this reassurement,
01:48:04.940 oh, you are actually women
01:48:06.100 and this is why
01:48:07.080 they get so happy
01:48:07.880 when they get like
01:48:08.600 a new social security number.
01:48:10.360 The state is their god
01:48:11.780 and their god
01:48:12.580 has acknowledged them
01:48:13.540 with a new gender.
01:48:14.720 It's absurdly sick
01:48:16.180 and it's,
01:48:16.920 it's just,
01:48:18.000 it's sad
01:48:18.680 and they lash out
01:48:20.400 if you point it out.
01:48:21.820 Well, that's why
01:48:22.620 people don't understand,
01:48:23.780 a lot of times
01:48:24.180 people will mistake me
01:48:25.300 for a libertarian
01:48:26.160 or they'll mistake me
01:48:27.740 for a statist
01:48:28.460 and I try to explain
01:48:30.200 that no, no, no,
01:48:30.780 I'm neither one
01:48:31.420 because the only way
01:48:32.300 to have liberty
01:48:33.300 is to have law
01:48:34.520 and the only way
01:48:35.040 to have law
01:48:35.580 is to have a grounding
01:48:36.640 in divine law.
01:48:38.160 Otherwise,
01:48:38.700 you're at the whims
01:48:39.560 of the power elite,
01:48:41.780 will to power
01:48:42.440 and the state
01:48:43.160 and monetary power
01:48:45.380 and all of that
01:48:46.880 is,
01:48:48.200 the only way
01:48:49.260 to have law,
01:48:51.600 the only way
01:48:52.040 to have a moral society
01:48:53.140 is to have god
01:48:54.300 in society.
01:48:55.220 Exactly.
01:48:56.060 Otherwise,
01:48:56.720 you've got
01:48:57.300 just will to power.
01:49:00.540 Yes, exactly,
01:49:01.460 you're absolutely right.
01:49:02.800 I'm sorry
01:49:03.400 if I cut you off a bit
01:49:04.400 but this is...
01:49:06.480 No, and these
01:49:07.080 transgender people
01:49:07.960 are so stupid
01:49:08.560 because the 1969
01:49:11.300 Population Council memo
01:49:12.940 from Bernard Berrelson
01:49:14.180 to Planned Parenthood
01:49:16.060 says that all of this
01:49:17.740 was weaponized.
01:49:18.720 It's all to destroy them.
01:49:20.120 So, that's actually
01:49:21.480 a biblical principle too.
01:49:22.660 I mean, I think it's
01:49:23.140 in Amos or somewhere
01:49:24.080 but it even talks
01:49:24.940 about the fact
01:49:25.640 that barrenness itself
01:49:26.940 is a judgment
01:49:27.980 from God.
01:49:28.720 So, people become
01:49:31.400 their own worst enemies
01:49:32.260 and then, you know,
01:49:32.920 as Paul says
01:49:33.560 in Romans 1
01:49:34.100 and God hands them over.
01:49:35.620 So, very sad
01:49:37.140 but the irony
01:49:39.900 of all this
01:49:40.460 is that none of these
01:49:41.780 people will go
01:49:42.380 into the future.
01:49:44.260 Yeah, I mean,
01:49:45.060 that's the thing
01:49:45.540 with like birth rates,
01:49:47.180 you know,
01:49:47.460 like you get a lot
01:49:48.420 of white nationalists
01:49:49.320 that are like
01:49:49.760 all worried
01:49:50.400 about birth rates.
01:49:51.500 Well, when you control
01:49:53.040 for like liberals
01:49:54.020 who do not have children,
01:49:56.260 white birth rates
01:49:58.040 are actually doing well
01:49:58.880 because it's religious
01:49:59.780 conservatives
01:50:00.460 that are having children.
01:50:01.800 Yes, and I wanted
01:50:03.040 to add another point
01:50:03.960 too that you're
01:50:05.000 absolutely right
01:50:05.580 to talk about
01:50:06.120 the loss of virtue
01:50:07.000 because the main problem
01:50:09.300 that I have
01:50:09.840 with any of the
01:50:11.220 independent movements,
01:50:12.960 alt-right, libertarian,
01:50:15.580 so-called conservative,
01:50:17.820 all these different things,
01:50:20.740 their main problem
01:50:21.620 is that they have
01:50:23.640 the liberal presupposition
01:50:25.200 that there is
01:50:26.740 an external solution
01:50:28.300 to these problems.
01:50:31.020 It's going to be Trump.
01:50:32.180 It's going to be
01:50:32.760 the alt-right.
01:50:33.520 It's going to be
01:50:34.140 the implementation
01:50:35.000 of a monarchy.
01:50:35.960 It's going to be
01:50:36.460 this, this, this, this.
01:50:37.960 None of these external things
01:50:39.360 are going to solve
01:50:40.000 the problem
01:50:40.720 which is located
01:50:42.580 ultimately in man himself
01:50:45.040 in terms of his heart.
01:50:46.380 So you have to have
01:50:47.480 a change in people's
01:50:48.540 attitudes,
01:50:49.180 a change in heart,
01:50:50.220 metanoia, repentance,
01:50:52.080 before you can
01:50:53.040 think about the external.
01:50:55.800 So that's why
01:50:56.360 you're absolutely right
01:50:57.040 with the theological.
01:50:57.820 Absolutely, that's precise.
01:50:59.060 And this is,
01:50:59.580 we actually just did
01:51:00.360 an episode on
01:51:01.100 spiritual warfare
01:51:01.980 a couple of episodes ago.
01:51:04.180 I mean, and this is
01:51:04.780 what we talk about.
01:51:05.680 I mean, Avila is specific
01:51:06.960 in this and his
01:51:07.560 metaphysics of war.
01:51:08.840 It's just that all
01:51:09.560 victory externally
01:51:10.780 is a manifestation
01:51:11.580 of the internal victory
01:51:12.800 over the passions.
01:51:15.000 Yes.
01:51:16.260 Exactly.
01:51:17.140 I mean, this is,
01:51:17.960 this is,
01:51:18.280 this is a widely
01:51:19.360 acknowledged, you know,
01:51:20.380 fact, you guys can
01:51:21.060 go back and listen to this.
01:51:22.040 But yeah, I mean,
01:51:22.800 I just, let's just
01:51:23.760 get hit the racist
01:51:24.420 liberalism thing
01:51:25.260 for a second.
01:51:26.040 I mean, there are
01:51:27.760 a lot of people
01:51:28.500 on the alt-right
01:51:29.760 or the far-right,
01:51:31.160 you know, I mean,
01:51:31.580 we're pretty harshly
01:51:32.380 critical of Richard Spencer,
01:51:33.720 you know, for this,
01:51:34.620 is that, you know,
01:51:35.620 basically what they want
01:51:36.680 is, in their own words,
01:51:37.920 like a nice white country.
01:51:39.640 And so they want to go
01:51:41.120 back to this 1920s,
01:51:43.620 1950s, bourgeois,
01:51:46.740 capitalist, you know,
01:51:48.160 white lifestyle.
01:51:50.420 And they think that
01:51:51.320 if we remove
01:51:52.180 Negroes and Hispanics,
01:51:54.700 you know,
01:51:54.960 the undesirable races,
01:51:57.040 that we can, you know,
01:51:57.940 go back to reclaim
01:51:59.260 this, like,
01:51:59.760 lost vision of
01:52:02.140 white America
01:52:02.980 that once was.
01:52:04.040 This Norman Rockwell photo.
01:52:05.420 And I guess what I just
01:52:09.000 wanted to, you know,
01:52:09.780 say is, like,
01:52:11.700 I wanted to talk about
01:52:12.820 why operating on
01:52:14.720 these fundamentally,
01:52:16.160 like,
01:52:16.540 enlightenment,
01:52:17.260 liberal
01:52:17.760 presuppositions
01:52:19.740 and worldviews
01:52:21.120 are ultimately
01:52:21.940 just going to lead
01:52:22.700 to us going right back
01:52:23.720 to the place
01:52:24.120 that we are today
01:52:24.980 and that we need
01:52:25.760 to reject
01:52:26.920 the worldview
01:52:28.760 and the metaphysical
01:52:29.880 claims
01:52:30.500 that have led us
01:52:31.780 to this situation.
01:52:33.220 And if we don't do that,
01:52:34.520 it's,
01:52:35.160 it's,
01:52:35.700 we're just going to
01:52:36.180 wind right back up
01:52:37.100 where we started.
01:52:38.240 Well,
01:52:38.700 that's why,
01:52:39.620 one of the reasons
01:52:40.460 that I talk so much
01:52:41.680 about Darwinism
01:52:42.540 and about,
01:52:43.320 well,
01:52:45.260 more and more
01:52:45.700 I've been talking
01:52:46.320 about higher critical
01:52:48.420 approaches to
01:52:49.560 destroying belief
01:52:51.060 in scripture
01:52:51.620 is that that's what
01:52:52.840 led to a lot of
01:52:53.800 where we are now.
01:52:54.960 So,
01:52:55.880 I know that Richard's
01:52:56.860 view is that
01:52:57.900 I believe he said
01:52:59.640 something to the effect
01:53:00.460 of that he
01:53:02.260 eventually got tired
01:53:03.240 of Christianity
01:53:03.780 at some point
01:53:04.600 because he realized
01:53:06.460 that a bunch
01:53:08.600 of the New Testament
01:53:09.280 texts talk about
01:53:10.480 like the return
01:53:12.860 of Christ
01:53:13.440 and that most churches
01:53:14.700 have interpreted
01:53:15.440 this imminently
01:53:16.360 like in Matthew 24
01:53:17.580 or,
01:53:18.320 you know,
01:53:19.620 readings of the book
01:53:20.220 of Revelation
01:53:20.640 or something like that.
01:53:21.560 And so,
01:53:21.880 therefore,
01:53:22.200 because Christ
01:53:23.020 didn't return
01:53:23.720 to the people
01:53:24.440 that he was speaking
01:53:25.020 to in his immediate
01:53:26.460 audience,
01:53:27.120 be it the apostles
01:53:27.880 or John's,
01:53:29.380 you know,
01:53:29.860 letter to the seven
01:53:30.600 churches or whatever.
01:53:31.940 Therefore,
01:53:32.800 you know,
01:53:33.280 obviously the New Testament
01:53:34.460 has faulty data
01:53:35.860 or Christ was wrong
01:53:37.680 or whatever.
01:53:39.140 And so,
01:53:39.820 one of the great things
01:53:40.700 that I learned
01:53:41.700 when I was a Protestant,
01:53:44.140 when I was a Reconstructionist
01:53:45.200 Calvinist,
01:53:45.780 was that a lot of this
01:53:47.740 is understood
01:53:48.280 in terms of preterism.
01:53:50.540 And preterism
01:53:51.240 is the idea
01:53:51.900 that many of these prophecies
01:53:53.920 are fulfilled
01:53:54.420 in the destruction
01:53:55.560 of the temple
01:53:56.000 in 70 AD.
01:53:57.620 And that actually
01:53:58.600 becomes a great
01:54:00.340 testimony
01:54:01.440 to the veracity
01:54:02.920 of the scriptures
01:54:03.840 when you understand this.
01:54:05.940 So,
01:54:06.460 just to make this brief,
01:54:08.360 I know we could go
01:54:08.880 on this topic
01:54:09.720 for forever,
01:54:10.460 but if you look
01:54:11.660 at Luke 21,
01:54:12.820 that's actually
01:54:13.620 a more enlightening
01:54:15.160 commentary
01:54:15.720 on what's going on
01:54:17.820 at 70 AD
01:54:18.720 and the Olivet
01:54:20.320 Discourse of Christ
01:54:21.360 than just what you read
01:54:22.880 in Matthew 24.
01:54:23.680 So,
01:54:24.020 like,
01:54:24.180 if you just read
01:54:24.700 Matthew 24,
01:54:25.500 a lot of people
01:54:25.860 get pigeonholed
01:54:27.780 into this kind of
01:54:28.640 John Hagee
01:54:29.940 evangelical nonsense
01:54:31.120 where they think
01:54:31.980 that Matthew 24
01:54:32.860 is talking about
01:54:33.560 the end of the world
01:54:34.340 in totality.
01:54:35.500 Now,
01:54:35.640 I believe that it is.
01:54:36.700 It is partly talking
01:54:37.760 about the end of the world.
01:54:38.520 But,
01:54:38.740 if you read Luke's account,
01:54:41.340 Luke 21,
01:54:43.980 it sheds further light
01:54:46.980 on the fact
01:54:47.480 that Jesus is talking
01:54:48.500 about what they're going
01:54:50.320 to see in their generation.
01:54:51.780 And he talks about
01:54:52.460 that the temple
01:54:53.820 of Jerusalem
01:54:54.260 will be surrounded
01:54:54.920 by the Roman armies.
01:54:57.240 You know,
01:54:57.380 Titus Vespasian
01:54:58.180 comes in
01:54:58.640 and destroys the temple
01:54:59.400 in 70 AD.
01:55:00.240 And all of this
01:55:00.860 matches up perfectly
01:55:01.940 to what you find
01:55:03.980 in the book
01:55:04.360 of the Apocalypse.
01:55:05.220 So,
01:55:05.720 once that's understood,
01:55:07.660 like,
01:55:07.860 a lot of these
01:55:08.800 supposed
01:55:09.260 higher critical arguments
01:55:10.480 about the falsehood
01:55:13.580 of the New Testament
01:55:14.740 fall apart.
01:55:15.740 Well,
01:55:16.380 you know,
01:55:16.700 that's absolutely,
01:55:17.320 it's precise.
01:55:18.200 And,
01:55:18.300 I mean,
01:55:18.520 this,
01:55:18.880 once you have
01:55:19.440 this key,
01:55:21.440 I mean,
01:55:21.800 you see this message
01:55:22.540 echo throughout
01:55:23.760 the entirety
01:55:24.480 of this,
01:55:25.000 of not even just
01:55:26.240 the Synoptic Gospels,
01:55:27.100 but also the Gospel
01:55:27.960 of John.
01:55:28.780 I mean,
01:55:29.020 like,
01:55:29.220 a good example
01:55:29.840 is this is,
01:55:31.320 so,
01:55:31.740 I mean,
01:55:32.500 you know what,
01:55:33.040 we should just get
01:55:33.840 right into theology
01:55:34.580 because this is,
01:55:35.280 I mean,
01:55:35.480 I'm studying this
01:55:36.220 in university,
01:55:36.860 so this is my podcast,
01:55:38.280 so we're just going
01:55:38.760 to talk about theology.
01:55:42.260 You know,
01:55:42.800 John very explicitly
01:55:44.340 talks about,
01:55:45.120 like,
01:55:46.380 all of the valleys
01:55:47.600 being filled
01:55:48.160 and the roads
01:55:48.600 made straight,
01:55:49.960 right?
01:55:50.320 And this is the witness
01:55:51.140 that he offers
01:55:51.760 at the beginning
01:55:52.440 of the Gospel
01:55:53.040 of John
01:55:53.440 after the prologue,
01:55:54.880 you know,
01:55:55.300 describing the word
01:55:56.840 becoming flesh.
01:55:58.920 And so,
01:55:59.820 in the Gospel
01:56:01.040 of John,
01:56:01.720 the first person
01:56:02.840 that the word,
01:56:06.720 that Jesus Christ
01:56:07.400 announces his divinity
01:56:08.480 to is the Samaritan
01:56:09.840 licentious woman
01:56:12.440 when he's by the well,
01:56:14.940 the well of Jacob.
01:56:15.640 And so the theology
01:56:17.260 of the Samaritans,
01:56:18.700 you know,
01:56:18.880 actually,
01:56:19.620 what they believed
01:56:20.500 was that,
01:56:21.200 you know,
01:56:21.760 the true,
01:56:22.960 they were,
01:56:23.620 in fact,
01:56:23.920 like the true remnant
01:56:24.840 of the worship
01:56:25.780 of Israel
01:56:26.360 descended from
01:56:27.080 the priesthood
01:56:27.620 of Aaron.
01:56:28.740 Yeah,
01:56:29.220 I'm familiar,
01:56:29.780 right.
01:56:30.140 Right,
01:56:30.460 exactly.
01:56:30.920 And so they believed
01:56:31.500 that,
01:56:31.700 you know,
01:56:31.900 their temple
01:56:33.080 had been buried
01:56:34.020 underneath Mount
01:56:35.460 Gerzim.
01:56:37.320 Gerzim,
01:56:37.780 yeah.
01:56:38.280 Gerzim,
01:56:38.880 in that,
01:56:39.500 you know,
01:56:39.960 when the Messiah,
01:56:40.880 the one who was
01:56:41.900 to come,
01:56:42.740 came out,
01:56:43.500 he was going to
01:56:43.860 blow the top
01:56:44.480 off the temple.
01:56:45.160 Off the mountain
01:56:46.000 rather than
01:56:46.420 reveal the temple
01:56:47.060 and everybody
01:56:47.420 was going to
01:56:47.800 worship in truth.
01:56:48.900 So Jesus reveals,
01:56:50.840 you know,
01:56:51.580 his divinity
01:56:53.660 to this woman
01:56:54.300 and he says,
01:56:55.180 you know,
01:56:55.580 actually,
01:56:56.160 you kind of
01:56:56.460 have got it wrong
01:56:57.240 that it's going
01:56:57.820 to be worshipped.
01:56:59.120 The worship
01:56:59.480 is going to be
01:57:00.040 in truth
01:57:00.480 and in the spirit
01:57:01.220 all over the world.
01:57:02.800 But at the same time,
01:57:03.900 he doesn't blow
01:57:04.320 the top off the temple.
01:57:06.000 He doesn't blow
01:57:06.640 the top off the mountain
01:57:07.300 and reveal the temple,
01:57:08.080 but he does lay flat
01:57:09.160 the temple
01:57:09.620 in Jerusalem.
01:57:10.480 And so this is,
01:57:12.980 in my personal,
01:57:14.080 you know,
01:57:15.080 exegesis of this,
01:57:15.860 this is the fulfillment
01:57:16.740 directly of what
01:57:17.700 John is talking about
01:57:18.620 in the prophecy
01:57:19.160 of Isaiah,
01:57:20.600 you know,
01:57:22.060 that the valleys
01:57:24.380 are going to be filled,
01:57:25.600 right?
01:57:25.820 That there's this,
01:57:26.360 like,
01:57:26.660 equalization of,
01:57:28.940 you know,
01:57:30.380 in this kind of
01:57:31.460 procession of the eschaton,
01:57:32.680 this equalization
01:57:33.460 of these physical
01:57:35.580 places of worship
01:57:36.460 and that it's,
01:57:37.820 you know,
01:57:38.300 fundamentally the spirit
01:57:40.100 that is pleasing to God,
01:57:42.120 not the temple edifices.
01:57:44.560 Yes,
01:57:45.080 there are many texts
01:57:46.100 in the Old Testament
01:57:46.840 and in Isaiah
01:57:47.840 that speak precisely
01:57:50.100 of Gentile ministers
01:57:52.280 in the church.
01:57:53.160 I mean,
01:57:53.300 Isaiah says that,
01:57:54.160 he says,
01:57:54.500 Gentiles will be your priests
01:57:56.580 and they're like,
01:57:57.200 you know,
01:57:57.460 the Jews are like,
01:57:58.240 what?
01:57:58.580 What are you talking about?
01:57:59.960 Kill us.
01:58:00.900 So,
01:58:01.500 yeah,
01:58:02.620 and then at the,
01:58:03.680 at the end of Romans,
01:58:05.100 of course,
01:58:05.420 you know,
01:58:05.560 Paul quotes many
01:58:07.240 of the Psalms
01:58:07.900 to that effect
01:58:08.660 that,
01:58:09.040 you know,
01:58:09.440 all of the nations
01:58:10.120 are going to be joined
01:58:11.560 with Israel
01:58:13.420 in the worship
01:58:14.220 of the true God.
01:58:15.240 So,
01:58:15.660 so absolutely.
01:58:16.540 In other words,
01:58:17.000 I'm just getting that,
01:58:18.300 that you're,
01:58:19.520 you are correct
01:58:20.440 to point out
01:58:21.260 that the culmination
01:58:23.260 of the Old Covenant
01:58:24.020 in 70 AD
01:58:25.200 is crucial to understanding
01:58:26.840 a lot of the Bible
01:58:28.420 and it's crucial
01:58:29.340 to understanding Daniel 2
01:58:30.780 and Daniel 7
01:58:31.660 and Daniel 9
01:58:32.500 and unfortunately
01:58:34.240 many have not
01:58:35.300 and that's also,
01:58:36.980 it also is
01:58:37.760 the patristic teaching.
01:58:39.020 I've dug up
01:58:39.600 many quotes
01:58:40.320 from St. John Chrysostom
01:58:42.440 and others
01:58:42.980 that do talk
01:58:44.100 about preterism.
01:58:45.840 So,
01:58:46.880 anyway,
01:58:47.520 yeah,
01:58:48.780 I mean,
01:58:48.980 once you dismantle
01:58:50.080 that point
01:58:50.780 of the higher critics
01:58:51.740 and,
01:58:52.380 and a lot of people
01:58:53.320 are scared
01:58:53.820 of higher criticism,
01:58:54.740 they get intimidated
01:58:55.540 because they're like,
01:58:56.300 oh,
01:58:56.420 they studied Hebrew
01:58:57.220 and linguistics
01:58:57.940 but actually
01:58:58.720 when you understand
01:58:59.420 a lot of their
01:59:00.000 presuppositions,
01:59:01.640 it's very easy
01:59:02.260 to dismantle
01:59:02.980 it's just like Darwinism,
01:59:03.980 right?
01:59:04.160 It's like,
01:59:04.360 it has all this
01:59:04.880 veneer of like
01:59:06.240 being scientific
01:59:07.100 and scientism
01:59:08.060 and technical
01:59:08.640 and all that
01:59:09.020 but it's actually
01:59:09.540 not that,
01:59:10.160 not that profound.
01:59:11.660 In fact,
01:59:12.720 I can't find,
01:59:13.920 I forgot this woman's name
01:59:15.100 but she's like a Yale
01:59:15.860 professor or something
01:59:16.880 and what you discover
01:59:18.800 is that she's got
01:59:20.280 these lectures
01:59:20.760 on YouTube
01:59:21.240 on Julius Valhausen
01:59:22.940 and Valhausen
01:59:24.580 was the father
01:59:25.460 of higher critics
01:59:26.540 and documentary
01:59:28.800 hypotheses
01:59:29.400 and all that
01:59:29.980 and what's funny
01:59:32.320 about Valhausen
01:59:33.040 is that he says
01:59:34.060 he has an agenda
01:59:34.780 like his agenda
01:59:36.140 is to do
01:59:36.740 Yeah,
01:59:36.880 this is the father
01:59:37.920 of like,
01:59:38.380 you know,
01:59:38.560 the Yaleistic
01:59:39.320 Yeah,
01:59:40.480 J-E-P-D,
01:59:41.140 yeah.
01:59:41.520 Yeah,
01:59:41.660 exactly.
01:59:42.120 So,
01:59:42.420 he says he has an agenda
01:59:44.380 so this is not,
01:59:45.380 I thought we were doing
01:59:46.260 like neutral objective
01:59:47.700 scientific inquiry here,
01:59:48.940 right?
01:59:49.180 No,
01:59:49.640 actually we have an agenda
01:59:50.660 and so anyway
01:59:52.360 there's this Yale woman
01:59:54.080 who's like a student
01:59:55.320 of Valhausen
01:59:56.260 and higher critical stuff
01:59:58.140 and anyway
01:59:58.600 what's funny
01:59:59.300 is that she's
01:59:59.960 she's got these lectures
02:00:01.560 where she's
02:00:02.140 she's summarizing
02:00:04.020 where textual criticism
02:00:05.900 has gone
02:00:07.600 in the last few years
02:00:08.920 and like they don't believe
02:00:11.140 in Q anymore,
02:00:12.160 right?
02:00:12.340 So Q was like
02:00:13.400 this huge
02:00:14.140 linchpin
02:00:15.820 in their theories
02:00:17.320 of the origins
02:00:19.160 of,
02:00:19.640 you know,
02:00:19.820 where we get Mark,
02:00:20.820 the author of Mark
02:00:21.500 and all this kind of stuff
02:00:23.000 and oh no,
02:00:24.420 actually we've discarded that
02:00:25.560 so just like Darwinism
02:00:26.840 what you realize
02:00:27.800 is that
02:00:28.360 like they literally
02:00:29.840 every day
02:00:30.740 they're overturning
02:00:31.660 all their supposed
02:00:32.620 proofs and theories
02:00:33.720 and,
02:00:34.220 you know,
02:00:35.280 arguments against
02:00:36.100 the veracity
02:00:38.260 of the text
02:00:39.020 so there actually
02:00:40.920 isn't
02:00:41.480 a consistent
02:00:42.320 coherent position
02:00:43.260 that these people
02:00:44.300 have,
02:00:45.020 right?
02:00:45.260 Now I'm not saying
02:00:45.800 that there's not
02:00:46.220 textual difficulties
02:00:47.200 and all that
02:00:47.840 obviously there are
02:00:48.700 places in the text
02:00:50.200 Old and New Testament
02:00:51.300 where,
02:00:52.160 you know,
02:00:52.360 there's mysteries
02:00:52.860 and things we don't know
02:00:53.700 but what they do
02:00:54.940 is leap on this
02:00:55.660 kind of stuff
02:00:56.180 and they try to build
02:00:56.760 these giant cases
02:00:57.900 of,
02:00:58.580 you know,
02:00:59.680 nonsense
02:01:00.360 for which there's
02:01:00.980 absolutely no evidence
02:01:01.940 it's just some
02:01:02.640 academic trying to
02:01:03.900 make a name
02:01:04.360 for themselves
02:01:04.960 and,
02:01:05.460 you know,
02:01:05.620 talking about
02:01:06.260 queer theory
02:01:07.400 and the gospel
02:01:07.980 of John
02:01:08.460 or some bullshit
02:01:09.120 like that.
02:01:09.700 Well,
02:01:10.380 precisely.
02:01:11.140 I actually just
02:01:11.960 read an article
02:01:12.840 by Thomas Hopko
02:01:15.060 called The Bible
02:01:16.300 and the Orthodox Church
02:01:17.300 and he was basically
02:01:18.520 talking about,
02:01:19.740 I mean,
02:01:20.020 he was giving
02:01:20.760 the Orthodox position
02:01:22.040 on the integration
02:01:23.040 of textual criticism
02:01:24.060 into,
02:01:25.660 like,
02:01:27.240 an Orthodox understanding
02:01:28.200 of scripture
02:01:28.600 and,
02:01:28.880 I mean,
02:01:28.960 he points out
02:01:29.600 like very accurately
02:01:30.400 that,
02:01:30.800 like,
02:01:30.880 this is not new.
02:01:32.320 I mean,
02:01:32.620 literary criticism,
02:01:33.920 you know,
02:01:34.080 form gescheit,
02:01:34.740 all this kind of stuff,
02:01:35.540 I mean,
02:01:35.780 the church fathers
02:01:36.600 did this.
02:01:38.020 Sure.
02:01:38.580 I mean,
02:01:39.040 it was not invented,
02:01:41.600 you know,
02:01:42.560 in the 19th and 20th century.
02:01:44.780 Yeah,
02:01:44.880 but unfortunately
02:01:45.520 a lot of the mainline
02:01:47.380 Orthodox world
02:01:48.580 will tend to just go along
02:01:50.520 with all these presuppositions
02:01:51.640 just like Roman Catholic
02:01:52.940 higher criticism did too.
02:01:54.940 And then once you buy
02:01:55.920 into those presuppositions
02:01:57.260 of,
02:01:57.700 like,
02:01:58.080 documentary hypothesis
02:01:59.120 and all this stuff,
02:02:00.000 you're just led down
02:02:00.860 the road of,
02:02:02.820 like,
02:02:03.420 oh,
02:02:03.520 even Romanides,
02:02:04.560 you know,
02:02:05.400 bought into all the
02:02:06.200 higher critical stuff
02:02:07.040 and then admits
02:02:08.660 that the Bible's
02:02:09.720 got errors
02:02:10.520 and,
02:02:11.600 oh,
02:02:12.080 well,
02:02:12.400 it looks like evolution
02:02:13.160 might be true
02:02:13.960 and all this kind of stuff.
02:02:15.100 So,
02:02:15.760 it's just a dangerous
02:02:16.940 path to,
02:02:18.060 once you buy
02:02:18.860 the presuppositions,
02:02:20.100 you'll,
02:02:20.740 you can be led down
02:02:21.560 anywhere,
02:02:22.180 any of these
02:02:23.160 dangerous paths.
02:02:25.020 And the key point
02:02:26.160 that none of these people
02:02:26.960 figure out to do
02:02:28.360 is to question
02:02:29.440 the presuppositions
02:02:30.220 themselves.
02:02:31.040 And the very fact that,
02:02:32.960 you know,
02:02:33.200 the latest higher critical
02:02:34.440 scholars will sit there
02:02:35.520 and talk about the fact
02:02:36.380 that there's not
02:02:37.060 a single documentary
02:02:38.140 hypothesis and it changes
02:02:39.440 every few years
02:02:40.120 shows that this is not
02:02:41.280 really what it's been
02:02:42.240 presented as.
02:02:43.180 It's been sold by
02:02:44.340 these globalist-funded
02:02:45.400 things like the
02:02:46.020 Jesus Quest
02:02:46.740 as if it was this
02:02:48.640 huge scientific,
02:02:50.180 technical,
02:02:50.740 scholarly endeavor,
02:02:51.800 and it's not,
02:02:53.120 it has an agenda.
02:02:54.440 All right,
02:02:54.600 so you look at,
02:02:55.280 like,
02:02:55.600 Elaine Pagel's
02:02:56.560 Gnostic Gospels book,
02:02:59.140 right,
02:02:59.460 and she'll talk about
02:03:00.720 in the introduction
02:03:01.440 to it
02:03:01.960 that the UN
02:03:03.340 has supported
02:03:04.080 her work
02:03:04.640 and the promotion
02:03:06.400 of the discovery
02:03:07.580 of the,
02:03:08.160 now,
02:03:08.400 so there's an agenda
02:03:09.160 behind these things,
02:03:10.100 right,
02:03:10.300 so the Gnostic Gospels
02:03:12.000 and the promotion
02:03:12.640 of this across the world
02:03:13.840 and the Da Vinci Code
02:03:14.680 and all that,
02:03:15.520 it has a specific purpose
02:03:17.120 and big players
02:03:18.800 behind it.
02:03:19.420 It's not just
02:03:19.920 an organic development,
02:03:21.600 nor is higher criticism.
02:03:23.300 Higher criticism
02:03:23.840 is supported
02:03:25.760 by all these,
02:03:27.000 because there are people
02:03:28.480 who are devious
02:03:29.140 and who are smart
02:03:29.880 and they know
02:03:30.420 what things
02:03:31.180 will destroy
02:03:31.940 a religion.
02:03:32.460 Yeah,
02:03:33.900 I mean,
02:03:34.420 this,
02:03:35.020 much of this
02:03:35.460 doesn't even seem
02:03:36.480 to be much,
02:03:37.280 you know,
02:03:37.560 new stuff.
02:03:38.240 It's just all these
02:03:38.880 old heresies
02:03:39.700 that are
02:03:40.140 re-farmed
02:03:41.240 and re-made
02:03:43.740 and,
02:03:44.160 I mean,
02:03:44.340 you can see
02:03:45.240 another thread
02:03:47.560 with all of these
02:03:48.360 different sects
02:03:49.120 is that they take
02:03:49.720 like one verse
02:03:50.940 from the Bible
02:03:51.480 and they build
02:03:52.020 a whole system
02:03:52.700 out of it.
02:03:53.540 I mean,
02:03:53.740 you can see this
02:03:54.380 with the charismatics
02:03:55.320 for example,
02:03:55.940 you know,
02:03:56.120 the Holy Spirit
02:03:57.320 is going to,
02:03:58.020 you know,
02:03:58.280 flood all over the place.
02:03:59.560 And that's exactly
02:04:00.500 what the higher critics do.
02:04:01.380 They do the same thing
02:04:02.200 as the sects
02:04:03.160 and charismatics,
02:04:04.220 exactly.
02:04:05.180 And this really is sad.
02:04:07.400 I mean,
02:04:07.760 people are buying up
02:04:09.380 into this.
02:04:09.880 And,
02:04:10.080 you know,
02:04:10.400 from my experience
02:04:11.060 from what I see
02:04:11.760 in this country,
02:04:13.100 many people go to this sects
02:04:14.640 because they realize
02:04:15.400 that something is wrong
02:04:16.640 in the world.
02:04:17.040 They can't really say
02:04:17.980 what it is,
02:04:18.640 but something is wrong,
02:04:20.100 but then they get caught up
02:04:21.480 in this instead.
02:04:22.380 And slowly,
02:04:23.200 they just sink further,
02:04:24.480 further,
02:04:24.760 further into the swamp
02:04:25.600 and eventually,
02:04:27.280 yeah,
02:04:28.280 they think they can
02:04:29.220 faith heal
02:04:30.260 through telepathy
02:04:31.240 or some shits.
02:04:32.340 Yeah.
02:04:32.600 Yes.
02:04:33.080 Yeah.
02:04:33.620 To kind of continue on
02:04:34.540 in the theology
02:04:35.140 and then we'll hit
02:04:35.720 Kali Yuga news.
02:04:37.860 One of the things
02:04:38.660 that actually accompanied
02:04:39.580 my conversion to orthodoxy
02:04:41.020 was actually something
02:04:41.920 that you wrote,
02:04:42.600 Jay,
02:04:43.020 is when you talked about
02:04:43.980 and you wrote the article
02:04:45.520 for The Soul of the East,
02:04:46.540 How the West Became Atheist
02:04:47.780 and you did your deconstruction
02:04:48.980 of like Thomistic theology
02:04:51.180 and you kind of laid out
02:04:53.420 how divine simplicity
02:04:56.400 and the lack
02:04:58.920 of an energy essence
02:04:59.720 distinction in God
02:05:00.940 eventually leads to this,
02:05:04.280 you can't have
02:05:05.300 a personal relationship
02:05:06.220 with God
02:05:06.720 if you can never come
02:05:07.540 into contact
02:05:08.120 with his essence
02:05:08.880 and he only has essence,
02:05:10.100 he has no energies
02:05:10.820 for you to contact with.
02:05:13.040 Like I read that,
02:05:14.700 you know,
02:05:15.000 so I'm a third year
02:05:16.220 theology student
02:05:17.480 in an undergraduate degree
02:05:18.560 and I read that
02:05:19.420 and I was like,
02:05:20.220 wow,
02:05:21.040 it was at the very,
02:05:23.580 I comprehended it
02:05:25.180 and I understood it
02:05:26.520 and I realized
02:05:27.200 that I had,
02:05:27.920 you know,
02:05:28.280 no reputation for that,
02:05:30.980 right?
02:05:31.800 Yeah,
02:05:32.020 St. Gregory's
02:05:32.720 Palamas' argument
02:05:33.560 against Barlium
02:05:34.300 is where that comes from.
02:05:35.800 Right,
02:05:36.080 exactly.
02:05:36.980 And,
02:05:37.600 you know,
02:05:38.020 for me that was a huge,
02:05:39.680 you know,
02:05:40.380 about presupposition
02:05:41.220 destroying,
02:05:41.700 that was like
02:05:42.140 one of the kind of,
02:05:44.320 you know,
02:05:44.600 icebreaker things for me
02:05:45.700 that really started
02:05:46.620 to make me look
02:05:47.300 critically at
02:05:48.160 the Catholic system
02:05:49.520 of,
02:05:50.040 you know,
02:05:51.180 domestic theology
02:05:51.880 and philosophy
02:05:52.580 and the entire
02:05:53.700 intellectual construct
02:05:55.000 that's presented
02:05:55.640 because,
02:05:56.220 you know,
02:05:56.360 when I was a Catholic,
02:05:57.180 I mean,
02:05:57.380 I remember,
02:05:59.720 you know,
02:05:59.920 if every day
02:06:01.140 whatever the Pope
02:06:02.960 would say something,
02:06:03.900 you know,
02:06:04.080 manifestly heretical,
02:06:05.480 right?
02:06:06.220 You know,
02:06:06.520 you'd have to,
02:06:07.260 I'd have to go to like
02:06:08.100 the right-wing Catholic forum,
02:06:09.620 TRS,
02:06:10.040 and I'd have to explain,
02:06:10.980 okay,
02:06:11.260 no guys,
02:06:11.620 but you have to understand
02:06:12.480 this is the,
02:06:13.060 you know,
02:06:13.200 the gates of Hades
02:06:13.800 shall not prevail
02:06:14.460 against the,
02:06:15.040 you know,
02:06:16.000 the rock of Peter,
02:06:17.520 right?
02:06:18.880 Yeah,
02:06:19.200 endless mental gymnastics,
02:06:21.100 I did it for years,
02:06:22.000 yeah.
02:06:22.360 Exactly,
02:06:23.000 right,
02:06:23.320 exactly.
02:06:24.280 You know,
02:06:24.480 well,
02:06:24.900 you know,
02:06:25.140 or Vatican II
02:06:25.800 didn't change any theology,
02:06:27.400 it wasn't a real ecumenical council,
02:06:29.100 so we don't have to,
02:06:30.120 you don't have to worry about it,
02:06:31.300 and then you actually study
02:06:32.260 the council documents
02:06:33.080 and it's like,
02:06:33.580 that's not true.
02:06:36.000 The ecclesiology
02:06:36.800 completely changes.
02:06:38.480 Yeah.
02:06:39.580 Back in the day,
02:06:40.760 when I was going to
02:06:42.900 both SSPX
02:06:44.520 instead of Ecantus
02:06:45.440 masses,
02:06:46.640 I,
02:06:46.740 got to know
02:06:48.940 Jerry Matatix,
02:06:49.800 and I don't know
02:06:50.140 if you know Jerry Matatix,
02:06:51.060 but he used to be,
02:06:51.660 well,
02:06:53.440 he used to be like
02:06:53.940 a hardcore Calvinist
02:06:54.860 and he was a student
02:06:55.540 of Bonson
02:06:56.160 and then he converted to,
02:06:57.460 he was like an early,
02:06:58.460 like an 80s convert
02:06:59.780 out of Calvinism
02:07:00.820 into Catholicism
02:07:03.780 and ended up having
02:07:05.700 like 10 or 11 kids
02:07:07.400 and like he,
02:07:08.340 like he was a hardcore,
02:07:09.900 super,
02:07:10.520 super smart dude,
02:07:11.480 I mean,
02:07:11.580 like one of the smartest
02:07:12.240 dudes I've ever met
02:07:13.160 and so Jerry
02:07:15.040 was an apologist
02:07:16.080 and then he,
02:07:16.860 he would debate
02:07:19.000 all the Protestants
02:07:19.800 and he was very good
02:07:21.580 by the way
02:07:22.020 and he debated
02:07:23.960 his former master,
02:07:25.940 Greg Bonson,
02:07:26.680 one time
02:07:27.060 in a famous debate
02:07:27.860 and so I eventually
02:07:30.220 got to know Jerry
02:07:31.660 a little bit
02:07:32.220 and we had a debate
02:07:33.360 and it was when
02:07:34.300 I was really getting
02:07:34.980 into orthodoxy
02:07:36.300 and it was,
02:07:39.060 it was the same
02:07:39.720 kind of thing
02:07:40.240 like I really,
02:07:41.040 I presented all
02:07:41.860 of this kind of stuff
02:07:42.760 to him
02:07:43.200 and this was about
02:07:43.780 10 years ago
02:07:44.440 and I think that
02:07:47.460 it really bothered him.
02:07:50.540 I mean,
02:07:50.700 Jerry more or less
02:07:51.500 conceded the debate
02:07:52.560 but he wasn't going
02:07:54.380 to give up
02:07:54.980 the traditional Catholic
02:07:56.140 thing because that's,
02:07:58.140 that's kind of one of the,
02:07:59.700 yeah,
02:08:00.420 it's your identity
02:08:01.000 and one of the things
02:08:01.760 that you do
02:08:02.360 when you're a trad Catholic
02:08:03.800 is like you,
02:08:05.600 you're very leery
02:08:06.440 of being convinced
02:08:07.320 by reason
02:08:08.740 or like an argument
02:08:09.680 or a debate
02:08:10.280 because you feel like,
02:08:12.220 well,
02:08:13.460 the,
02:08:14.000 what I really need to do
02:08:14.960 is pray the rosary more.
02:08:17.700 And the reason
02:08:19.220 that I'm being put
02:08:20.160 in this situation
02:08:20.940 and maybe doubting
02:08:22.220 or thinking orthodoxy
02:08:23.440 or something might be true
02:08:24.380 is because I haven't
02:08:25.460 been praying the rosary.
02:08:27.240 And I had a set
02:08:28.660 of a contest,
02:08:29.380 a priest,
02:08:30.720 or maybe it was SSBX,
02:08:31.900 I don't remember,
02:08:32.380 one of the priests
02:08:33.100 was saying that to me
02:08:33.900 one time,
02:08:34.240 like I was bringing
02:08:34.740 a lot of these,
02:08:35.480 these issues to him
02:08:36.500 and I was saying,
02:08:36.980 what about this?
02:08:37.500 What about the filioque?
02:08:38.320 What about the essence
02:08:39.000 energy distinction?
02:08:39.940 This,
02:08:40.200 this,
02:08:40.240 this,
02:08:40.400 this,
02:08:40.500 this,
02:08:40.600 it was like,
02:08:42.420 my son,
02:08:43.020 my son,
02:08:43.940 pray the rosary.
02:08:45.880 You need to pray the rosary.
02:08:47.640 And I was like,
02:08:48.600 I was like,
02:08:49.720 okay,
02:08:50.080 oh,
02:08:50.220 actually I did pray
02:08:51.020 the rosary this morning,
02:08:51.820 but this,
02:08:52.860 this is not like
02:08:53.720 answering this question.
02:08:54.960 So I don't think
02:08:55.400 that I had,
02:08:56.780 I had like a,
02:08:57.880 like a pretty radical
02:08:58.840 Pauline conversion experience
02:09:00.420 to orthodoxy
02:09:01.440 and I had prayed
02:09:02.280 the rosary that morning.
02:09:03.800 Yeah.
02:09:05.060 Right.
02:09:06.540 And like it,
02:09:07.800 I exactly,
02:09:10.020 I know 100%
02:09:10.720 what you mean.
02:09:11.280 And that was the thing
02:09:11.980 for me is that,
02:09:14.600 you know,
02:09:14.840 you had these kind of
02:09:15.640 papist blinders on
02:09:17.000 where,
02:09:17.600 you know,
02:09:17.800 you're like,
02:09:18.460 this is the rock of Peter,
02:09:19.280 nothing,
02:09:19.560 you know,
02:09:19.720 nothing's going to go wrong
02:09:20.500 and you never demolish
02:09:21.360 those presuppositions.
02:09:22.120 And then when I ran
02:09:23.120 into your article
02:09:23.840 and it was like,
02:09:25.460 presuppositions refuted,
02:09:27.080 it was like,
02:09:27.880 oh my goodness,
02:09:28.960 you know,
02:09:29.400 and I,
02:09:30.040 I tried to talk to,
02:09:32.100 you know,
02:09:32.580 different orthodox
02:09:34.640 and Catholic priests
02:09:35.400 about it
02:09:35.940 and I couldn't get
02:09:37.400 a serious response.
02:09:39.400 Even like,
02:09:40.160 you know,
02:09:40.320 I've got a,
02:09:40.760 I've got a priest friend
02:09:41.500 of mine who was at
02:09:42.560 the congregation
02:09:43.080 of the doctrine
02:09:43.560 of the faith
02:09:43.960 with Ratzinger
02:09:44.520 and he's got a couple
02:09:45.220 of PhDs,
02:09:46.460 right?
02:09:47.140 And I could,
02:09:47.880 I didn't get
02:09:48.220 a satisfactory response.
02:09:49.520 Yeah,
02:09:50.440 I reached out to
02:09:51.340 like the,
02:09:51.940 the Vatican's dude
02:09:55.060 for dialogue
02:09:57.660 with the Eastern churches
02:09:58.960 and,
02:09:59.900 you know,
02:10:00.680 I didn't feel like
02:10:01.420 I got a satisfactory
02:10:02.240 response from him either
02:10:03.220 and I mean,
02:10:03.700 I,
02:10:04.120 for a while there
02:10:04.760 I tried to
02:10:05.700 utilize the,
02:10:07.720 the Vatican statement
02:10:08.660 on the filioque
02:10:09.800 that came out,
02:10:10.860 I don't know,
02:10:11.780 a while back,
02:10:12.880 maybe under John Paul II
02:10:14.120 or something,
02:10:14.720 I don't remember the date,
02:10:15.800 but they issued
02:10:17.160 some kind of statement
02:10:17.960 about the filioque
02:10:18.960 and then it,
02:10:19.520 but then eventually
02:10:20.160 you realize that,
02:10:21.000 you know what,
02:10:21.340 it's not just about filioque,
02:10:22.840 like there's this whole,
02:10:23.600 all this other stuff
02:10:24.300 about,
02:10:25.460 I started realizing
02:10:26.740 that it's really
02:10:27.440 the question of
02:10:28.120 divine simplicity
02:10:28.640 and the essence
02:10:29.780 energy distinction
02:10:30.600 because that is nowhere
02:10:33.920 taught in Roman Catholic
02:10:35.360 theology and I don't,
02:10:37.080 yeah,
02:10:37.340 I know that these guys
02:10:38.260 will try to pull out
02:10:39.260 Duns Scotus
02:10:40.820 and the Scotus view,
02:10:41.980 but actually,
02:10:42.780 it's not there either.
02:10:44.160 You don't,
02:10:44.580 I don't think you can,
02:10:46.460 I mean,
02:10:46.920 the Scotus might have
02:10:47.760 had disagreements
02:10:48.460 with Thomism,
02:10:49.320 but so what?
02:10:50.160 That's not the point.
02:10:50.980 The point is not just
02:10:51.780 disagreements with Thomism,
02:10:52.920 it's the fact that,
02:10:53.860 you know,
02:10:54.820 look,
02:10:55.440 Trent,
02:10:56.640 the Boston Catechism,
02:10:57.980 all these catechisms,
02:10:59.200 they're not teaching me
02:11:00.640 the basics of,
02:11:02.240 you know,
02:11:03.020 essence energy distinction
02:11:03.940 that all the Orthodox
02:11:04.800 fathers teach.
02:11:06.780 You see what I'm saying?
02:11:07.760 So it's like,
02:11:08.320 we can have all this
02:11:10.580 academic discussion
02:11:11.480 and maybe you can find
02:11:13.320 some Franciscan,
02:11:15.420 you know,
02:11:16.520 theologian that
02:11:17.380 nobody's ever heard of
02:11:19.400 from like 500 years ago
02:11:20.760 that like clued into this
02:11:22.240 and somehow got something
02:11:23.400 right about
02:11:24.120 the essence energy distinction,
02:11:25.900 but it doesn't matter
02:11:26.900 because,
02:11:27.540 you know,
02:11:28.520 in the dozens
02:11:29.900 of Catholic churches
02:11:31.000 and priests I went to
02:11:32.140 and met with
02:11:32.740 and liturgies I went to,
02:11:34.300 I never heard this.
02:11:35.500 So it's absolutely irrelevant.
02:11:37.640 Well, it's precisely,
02:11:38.580 I mean,
02:11:38.880 even more than,
02:11:39.700 when you pair that
02:11:40.520 with the Thomistic view
02:11:41.540 of the soul,
02:11:42.320 like there's no noose,
02:11:43.980 it's like,
02:11:45.560 you know,
02:11:46.240 you begin to realize
02:11:47.940 like,
02:11:48.240 holy moly.
02:11:49.720 It's not just one thing
02:11:51.260 like the filioque
02:11:52.320 or the essence energy distinction.
02:11:54.420 It's like this whole
02:11:55.580 different anthropology,
02:11:56.920 this whole different view
02:11:58.040 of eschatology
02:11:59.680 because,
02:12:00.360 you know,
02:12:00.600 in Thomism,
02:12:01.340 there's hardly any place
02:12:02.280 for the body
02:12:02.840 in the afterlife.
02:12:03.620 And then you read
02:12:05.600 like St. Gregory Palomas
02:12:06.920 and it's like
02:12:07.440 a totally different view
02:12:08.380 where it's like
02:12:08.820 the body has
02:12:09.640 like obviously
02:12:12.000 an important role.
02:12:13.200 I mean,
02:12:14.020 what's the point
02:12:14.600 of the freaking resurrection
02:12:15.980 if the afterlife
02:12:18.100 in Thomism
02:12:18.760 is just staring
02:12:19.560 into divine essence
02:12:20.480 for all eternity?
02:12:21.200 Right,
02:12:21.420 the beatific vision,
02:12:22.240 right?
02:12:22.540 Yeah,
02:12:22.760 it's just stupid.
02:12:23.500 It's like,
02:12:23.820 come on,
02:12:24.160 there's a whole,
02:12:24.860 why was Jesus resurrected
02:12:26.000 in a body?
02:12:26.680 Come on.
02:12:28.740 Yeah,
02:12:29.040 no,
02:12:29.280 exactly.
02:12:29.700 That was the other,
02:12:30.480 that was,
02:12:30.740 yeah,
02:12:32.520 it was interesting.
02:12:33.060 That was another
02:12:33.720 like pre-persupposition
02:12:35.020 that when I first
02:12:35.820 was catechizing myself
02:12:36.880 into the Catholic Church
02:12:37.880 that I,
02:12:39.060 there were two things
02:12:40.160 for me that when I was
02:12:41.100 catechizing myself
02:12:42.240 as a Catholic
02:12:42.760 sent up big red flags.
02:12:44.240 The first was their teaching
02:12:45.280 on the soul after death,
02:12:47.040 you know,
02:12:47.820 which for those
02:12:48.540 who aren't aware,
02:12:49.120 it's,
02:12:49.600 the traditional formula
02:12:50.440 is the four last things,
02:12:51.680 death, judgment,
02:12:52.420 heaven, hell,
02:12:53.680 right?
02:12:54.000 Like that's it,
02:12:55.320 you know?
02:12:56.640 And that like,
02:12:57.480 they don't even,
02:12:58.020 some of them will admit
02:12:59.240 that there's like a period
02:13:00.700 of trans migration,
02:13:01.800 maybe,
02:13:03.760 right?
02:13:04.820 But that's basically what,
02:13:06.400 it's like a legalistic formula.
02:13:08.500 And,
02:13:09.000 you know,
02:13:09.380 like my,
02:13:09.820 my father is a,
02:13:10.680 is a,
02:13:11.520 you know,
02:13:11.720 has a doctorate in anthropology
02:13:12.820 and has done a lot of work
02:13:14.140 with,
02:13:14.460 you know,
02:13:15.180 various different indigenous groups
02:13:16.780 all across the world.
02:13:17.540 And like,
02:13:18.320 this is a man,
02:13:19.160 like empirically,
02:13:19.920 it's incorrect
02:13:20.540 from an anthropological perspective.
02:13:22.300 This is not how
02:13:23.120 anybody perceives the soul
02:13:24.560 to progress after the death.
02:13:26.140 What do you,
02:13:27.660 can you flesh this out?
02:13:29.960 I'm not following you.
02:13:30.660 What do you mean?
02:13:31.320 What I mean is that like,
02:13:33.180 you know,
02:13:33.420 it's the idea,
02:13:34.020 you know,
02:13:34.220 in Catholic theology
02:13:35.860 that like you die,
02:13:37.240 you know,
02:13:37.400 your soul separates
02:13:38.040 from your body
02:13:38.640 and then you're immediately judged
02:13:40.140 and like,
02:13:40.520 it doesn't really stay on the earth.
02:13:42.220 You know,
02:13:42.500 the ghosts are just like
02:13:44.040 manifestations of people
02:13:45.120 who are in purgatory,
02:13:46.020 so they're going to be saved anyway.
02:13:47.820 You know,
02:13:48.040 there's no,
02:13:48.980 there's no intermediate stages,
02:13:52.000 you know,
02:13:52.880 like you pray for the dead
02:13:54.380 because they might be in purgatory,
02:13:56.120 right?
02:13:57.840 Oh,
02:13:58.200 okay.
02:13:59.040 You know,
02:13:59.500 right?
02:14:00.160 Like this,
02:14:00.800 this for me,
02:14:01.600 you contradict it anthropologically
02:14:03.260 with what,
02:14:03.980 you know,
02:14:04.800 could be manifestly observed
02:14:06.660 across like the entire history
02:14:08.180 of the world
02:14:08.680 about what people have
02:14:09.640 always observed
02:14:10.380 about what happens
02:14:11.060 with the soul
02:14:11.480 after it dies,
02:14:12.200 right?
02:14:12.800 And there's clearly
02:14:13.480 a period of transition
02:14:16.200 and things like that.
02:14:17.940 Ah,
02:14:18.120 yes,
02:14:18.480 okay.
02:14:18.940 Yes,
02:14:19.240 yes,
02:14:19.440 yes,
02:14:19.640 I see.
02:14:20.920 Yeah.
02:14:21.060 The other thing was like,
02:14:22.360 sort of like to the Tibetan
02:14:24.400 book of the dead and stuff.
02:14:26.060 Yeah,
02:14:26.180 sure.
02:14:26.400 As an example like that.
02:14:27.940 Right.
02:14:28.720 Right.
02:14:29.340 You know,
02:14:29.780 and the second thing for me
02:14:30.800 is like when I read that,
02:14:31.980 okay,
02:14:32.260 like,
02:14:32.640 so this,
02:14:33.100 so the Pope is the Supreme Pontiff.
02:14:35.320 So he has total jurisdiction
02:14:37.940 and faculties to celebrate
02:14:40.480 the sacraments
02:14:41.220 come from proper jurisdiction.
02:14:44.040 So if you don't have
02:14:45.700 proper jurisdiction,
02:14:46.880 you can't have real faculties
02:14:48.520 to celebrate the sacraments.
02:14:50.660 And that means that
02:14:51.400 if the Pope wanted to,
02:14:52.360 he could sign a piece of paper
02:14:53.560 and none of the Orthodox
02:14:55.000 would be able to celebrate mass
02:14:56.440 because he could just remove
02:14:59.860 all of their jurisdiction
02:15:00.680 automatically
02:15:01.300 and he doesn't do that
02:15:02.200 at a charity.
02:15:04.340 Well,
02:15:04.820 actually,
02:15:05.280 in canon law,
02:15:08.020 the,
02:15:08.400 if you espouse a heresy
02:15:10.940 or a schism,
02:15:11.860 you're supposed to
02:15:12.560 ipso facto
02:15:13.220 lose your jurisdiction.
02:15:14.400 So you don't have the,
02:15:15.900 you're not supposed to have
02:15:16.620 the operation of the keys.
02:15:18.680 Now,
02:15:19.280 in Roman,
02:15:19.980 as I understand,
02:15:20.860 I could be wrong about,
02:15:21.940 I'm not like a canon law specialist,
02:15:23.160 but I did focus on this
02:15:24.620 a lot in my twenties.
02:15:25.920 As I,
02:15:26.360 if I recall,
02:15:27.840 you can illicitly
02:15:29.300 do these masses
02:15:30.360 and offer the sacraments
02:15:32.180 outside the Roman Catholic
02:15:33.180 tradition.
02:15:34.400 I'm speaking in terms
02:15:35.500 of traditional canon law,
02:15:36.520 not the updated 1983
02:15:38.160 John Paul version,
02:15:39.300 which is weird.
02:15:39.920 But traditionally speaking,
02:15:42.660 illicit masses
02:15:44.420 are still valid,
02:15:45.440 but they're done illicitly.
02:15:46.780 So the Orthodox masses
02:15:47.900 are just kind of like
02:15:48.940 the same status
02:15:50.580 as like the SSPX masses.
02:15:54.140 So that was,
02:15:55.120 that was my understanding
02:15:56.000 that,
02:15:56.380 that you lose,
02:15:57.860 you do,
02:15:58.300 you lose jurisdiction,
02:15:59.580 jurisdiction
02:16:00.020 and the operation of the keys
02:16:01.020 simply ipso facto
02:16:02.780 by espousing
02:16:04.660 and teaching heresy
02:16:07.340 or going into schism.
02:16:09.000 So I don't,
02:16:10.860 I don't know.
02:16:11.440 I mean,
02:16:11.660 I'm not trying to get into
02:16:12.660 some weird canon law debate,
02:16:14.160 but really the whole,
02:16:16.260 the whole thing
02:16:16.740 is very bizarre.
02:16:17.900 And once,
02:16:19.640 once you try to live out
02:16:21.080 all this kind of stuff
02:16:22.080 and it's,
02:16:22.420 it's very difficult,
02:16:23.320 it's very confusing.
02:16:24.540 And I started noticing
02:16:26.500 weird things like
02:16:27.260 a lot of the SSPX priests
02:16:29.200 would have a
02:16:30.000 obsessive OCD.
02:16:33.280 I'm not joking.
02:16:34.140 I'm not joking.
02:16:34.820 And so I was wondering why.
02:16:36.480 And then I met a priest
02:16:37.980 one time
02:16:38.520 who was talking about
02:16:40.040 having to counsel
02:16:42.160 other SSPX priests
02:16:44.140 who have these problems
02:16:45.480 with OCD.
02:16:47.280 And then I realized
02:16:48.960 that one time
02:16:49.780 I remember
02:16:50.340 there was an SSPX guy
02:16:53.340 who was talking about
02:16:54.200 that he,
02:16:55.740 he was saying
02:16:56.920 the consecration
02:16:58.220 one time
02:16:58.740 in the mass
02:16:59.280 and he sneezed
02:17:00.400 and he felt like
02:17:01.180 it was a mortal sin
02:17:02.260 because he sneezed.
02:17:03.660 I'm not joking.
02:17:04.200 because he had not done
02:17:06.340 like the proper
02:17:07.180 I guess
02:17:09.140 blowing of his nose
02:17:10.180 before mass
02:17:10.940 or something.
02:17:12.460 So he felt like
02:17:13.660 he was,
02:17:14.160 he had committed
02:17:14.560 moral sin
02:17:15.200 and then he wondered
02:17:15.760 about the consecration
02:17:16.760 and I was just like
02:17:17.680 this is ludicrous.
02:17:18.840 Like this is insane.
02:17:20.980 Like who in the right mind
02:17:22.540 would ever,
02:17:23.600 like if this is the God
02:17:26.100 that we're talking about here,
02:17:27.300 it's just mind,
02:17:28.140 like it was just,
02:17:29.740 it was just insanity.
02:17:30.720 And I,
02:17:31.500 because it's so hyper-legalistic
02:17:33.340 and so utterly removed
02:17:36.500 from like,
02:17:37.960 I mean how in the world
02:17:38.880 would this religion
02:17:39.760 have ever spread
02:17:40.660 if,
02:17:42.180 you know.
02:17:42.940 You go to hell
02:17:43.600 for eating meat on Fridays.
02:17:45.580 Like you're,
02:17:46.240 you're going to hell
02:17:47.200 for sneezing accidentally
02:17:48.740 during a consecration.
02:17:49.720 I mean,
02:17:50.000 you can't even control that.
02:17:51.560 So point being
02:17:52.680 was that,
02:17:53.160 yeah,
02:17:53.320 it was like
02:17:53.820 when you read things
02:17:55.760 like Pius V's,
02:17:57.780 you know,
02:17:59.660 decree on,
02:18:00.340 on the mass
02:18:01.020 and all that kind of stuff
02:18:01.880 and that's one of,
02:18:02.660 you know,
02:18:02.820 one of their big arguments
02:18:03.640 is that it's a
02:18:04.800 perpetual apostolic decree,
02:18:07.680 you know,
02:18:07.840 that you can't change
02:18:08.760 the Latin mass
02:18:09.780 and so forth.
02:18:10.460 I mean,
02:18:10.780 it has all these
02:18:11.740 specifications
02:18:12.420 and so forth
02:18:13.320 and obviously Rome
02:18:14.460 changed it.
02:18:15.140 So,
02:18:15.940 you know,
02:18:16.240 either,
02:18:16.560 either these things
02:18:17.920 mean what they say
02:18:19.000 or they don't
02:18:19.660 and then,
02:18:20.080 well,
02:18:20.100 exactly.
02:18:20.620 Well,
02:18:20.720 and that was the thing
02:18:21.320 and I'm taking this,
02:18:22.340 I'm taking this
02:18:22.880 absolutely absurd course
02:18:23.980 at my university
02:18:24.600 on like Vatican II
02:18:25.760 ecclesiology.
02:18:26.800 It's literally called
02:18:27.920 ecclesiology
02:18:28.660 in an ecumenical age.
02:18:29.760 the female professor
02:18:30.940 who's teaching in
02:18:31.620 is an associate
02:18:32.260 of the World Council
02:18:32.920 of Churches,
02:18:34.120 right?
02:18:34.780 Exactly.
02:18:35.520 And then,
02:18:35.940 so,
02:18:36.480 Mortallium Animos,
02:18:37.800 I've always found
02:18:38.580 was the strongest point
02:18:40.580 because it's,
02:18:41.520 what,
02:18:41.820 1928,
02:18:42.640 Pius XI,
02:18:43.140 says that ecumenical
02:18:46.320 celebrations,
02:18:48.500 actions
02:18:48.880 are apostasy
02:18:50.260 and I could never,
02:18:53.720 ever get
02:18:54.100 any other Catholics
02:18:55.820 to explain anything
02:18:57.720 other than that.
02:18:58.480 Well,
02:18:58.620 that was just his
02:18:59.320 understanding at that time
02:19:00.380 and I'm like,
02:19:00.860 I'm sorry,
02:19:01.780 it can't be the ordinary
02:19:02.980 papal teaching
02:19:03.780 that...
02:19:04.900 Yeah,
02:19:05.520 if the ordinary
02:19:06.800 magisterium is infallible,
02:19:08.480 how's this work, boys?
02:19:09.260 Yeah,
02:19:10.980 so I never got
02:19:11.660 anything coherent
02:19:13.080 out of that
02:19:13.640 and then eventually
02:19:14.640 it just kind of dawned on me.
02:19:17.080 So like the first thing
02:19:17.760 I read was
02:19:18.440 Dr. Sherrard's
02:19:19.740 Greek East and Latin West
02:19:21.080 and that was like
02:19:22.000 a really big thing
02:19:23.300 that hit me
02:19:23.860 and then I was also
02:19:25.800 branching out
02:19:26.340 into actually reading
02:19:27.140 the Eastern Fathers
02:19:27.820 themselves
02:19:28.360 because prior to that,
02:19:29.620 you know,
02:19:29.780 I really just focused
02:19:30.920 on Augustine
02:19:31.620 and Ambrose
02:19:32.080 and Jerome
02:19:32.660 and then Aquinas
02:19:35.200 and, you know,
02:19:35.660 the medieval Latin guys
02:19:36.900 and I just didn't
02:19:38.100 ever really branch out
02:19:39.100 into the Eastern guys
02:19:41.220 because I thought,
02:19:41.900 well, you know,
02:19:42.220 they're important
02:19:42.680 and they matter
02:19:43.240 but they don't matter
02:19:43.860 like these dudes, right?
02:19:45.060 Yeah, yeah, exactly.
02:19:46.040 Well, it's funny,
02:19:46.700 after, so I had
02:19:47.700 this conversion experience,
02:19:48.840 right,
02:19:49.040 and then I began
02:19:49.820 to seriously like
02:19:50.780 look at everything
02:19:51.480 that was going on
02:19:52.240 to discern
02:19:52.680 what had just happened.
02:19:54.060 So are you familiar
02:19:54.560 with Michael Welton's
02:19:55.540 book Two Paths?
02:20:00.440 By Regina Press.
02:20:02.660 Uh, no, I'm not.
02:20:05.160 Well, basically
02:20:05.680 it's like a non-polemical
02:20:07.080 refutation of like
02:20:08.400 the Catholic claims
02:20:09.260 about Orthodoxy
02:20:10.160 and so he's compiled
02:20:11.540 like all of these,
02:20:12.540 these lists of quotes
02:20:13.860 from the Church Fathers
02:20:14.680 basically talking about,
02:20:15.940 you know,
02:20:16.120 interpretations of,
02:20:17.800 you know,
02:20:19.280 it's like Matthew 16,
02:20:20.240 18 or whatever,
02:20:21.140 or am I getting
02:20:21.980 the quote wrong,
02:20:22.640 you know,
02:20:22.840 and like the authority
02:20:24.920 of the Ecumenical Council
02:20:25.900 and whether bishops have,
02:20:27.260 you know,
02:20:27.500 can be infallible,
02:20:28.180 that sort of stuff
02:20:28.720 and I remember like
02:20:29.900 I read this book
02:20:30.780 and my jaw just like
02:20:32.940 dropped because I was,
02:20:34.940 like it was such a,
02:20:36.220 like the Church Fathers
02:20:37.080 were so bold-faced
02:20:38.160 again and again
02:20:39.300 and again and again
02:20:40.200 and again
02:20:40.740 directly contradicting,
02:20:42.680 you know,
02:20:43.480 the claims of the papacy.
02:20:44.500 Well, you know,
02:20:46.000 this was such a huge problem
02:20:48.040 for me for so long
02:20:49.040 throughout my 20s
02:20:50.080 and I think I read
02:20:51.780 like five or six
02:20:52.560 of Ratzinger's books
02:20:53.440 for example,
02:20:54.160 so one of the things
02:20:55.280 that really hit me
02:20:56.080 was I think it's
02:20:56.980 an introduction
02:20:57.460 to Christianity
02:20:58.160 or one of the,
02:20:59.260 one of the other
02:21:00.580 more philosophical
02:21:01.800 tomes that he wrote.
02:21:03.940 He makes the statement
02:21:05.120 in a footnote
02:21:05.840 that,
02:21:06.420 that the,
02:21:07.920 the ecumenical church
02:21:10.540 East and West
02:21:11.500 for the first thousand years
02:21:14.020 did not operate
02:21:15.040 on the principle
02:21:15.740 of papal supremacy
02:21:16.980 and that blew me away
02:21:18.620 that he says that
02:21:19.340 in that footnote.
02:21:20.340 I could go fish,
02:21:21.220 I could go fish it out
02:21:22.060 if you want
02:21:22.400 but you can find it
02:21:23.060 pretty easy
02:21:23.380 if you,
02:21:23.680 if you Google it
02:21:24.360 but he says
02:21:25.980 for the first millennium
02:21:27.100 the church didn't
02:21:27.660 operate this way.
02:21:28.660 It's like,
02:21:29.600 here's the Pope
02:21:30.880 telling me
02:21:31.560 that the church
02:21:32.820 did not operate
02:21:33.840 in a Vatican I mindset
02:21:35.360 for the first thousand years.
02:21:36.500 So,
02:21:37.300 I mean,
02:21:37.720 and there's so many
02:21:38.940 examples of stuff
02:21:39.680 like that
02:21:40.100 so eventually though
02:21:41.180 it just got to the point
02:21:41.900 where I was like,
02:21:43.460 you know,
02:21:43.920 like,
02:21:44.600 I mean,
02:21:45.740 I'm not saying
02:21:46.940 you can't get all involved
02:21:48.120 in like the really
02:21:48.980 intricacy
02:21:49.740 laden arguments
02:21:51.780 of Roman Catholicism
02:21:52.980 but after a while
02:21:54.300 it's just kind of like,
02:21:56.400 I mean,
02:21:57.080 I don't have,
02:21:57.680 I don't even have to worry
02:21:58.400 about that
02:21:58.820 because,
02:21:59.880 I mean,
02:22:00.160 just look at Francis,
02:22:01.500 he's a clown.
02:22:03.200 Yeah.
02:22:04.160 He's just,
02:22:05.000 he's a complete clown
02:22:06.280 and
02:22:07.500 take for example
02:22:10.900 the argument
02:22:11.520 that Roman Catholics
02:22:12.220 often make
02:22:12.800 that,
02:22:13.240 oh,
02:22:13.360 you know,
02:22:13.520 without the papacy
02:22:14.400 that you can't have
02:22:15.760 the church,
02:22:16.160 it all just falls apart.
02:22:17.700 Well,
02:22:17.880 the mere fact
02:22:18.420 that for a thousand years
02:22:19.480 Orthodoxy still exists
02:22:20.760 and hasn't had the Pope
02:22:21.760 suggests to me
02:22:23.420 that like that,
02:22:24.200 like that big Catholic
02:22:26.260 apologetic argument
02:22:27.640 is just simply not true.
02:22:28.880 Like how is Orthodoxy
02:22:29.820 still around
02:22:30.560 if we still require the Pope?
02:22:33.080 It just doesn't make sense.
02:22:34.100 And I think Father Matthew
02:22:35.900 is very correct
02:22:37.860 when he says that,
02:22:39.140 you know,
02:22:39.460 Orthodoxy really,
02:22:41.060 yeah,
02:22:41.320 we can talk about
02:22:42.020 Orthodox emperors
02:22:42.840 and we can talk about
02:22:43.560 patriarchs and all this stuff,
02:22:44.860 but really it's,
02:22:46.560 it's not as centralized
02:22:47.680 as even Orthodoxy
02:22:49.220 tends to think,
02:22:50.060 you know,
02:22:50.480 Orthodoxy even tends to,
02:22:52.320 especially in the West,
02:22:52.960 tends to think in this,
02:22:53.780 this papal mindset
02:22:54.860 that like,
02:22:56.140 you know,
02:22:56.360 to have an Orthodox church,
02:22:57.460 you know,
02:22:57.740 we got to have like
02:22:58.500 some gigantic patriarch somewhere.
02:23:01.040 No,
02:23:01.540 no,
02:23:02.120 really,
02:23:02.520 no.
02:23:02.720 That's the thing
02:23:04.480 and it's,
02:23:05.080 you know,
02:23:05.240 all you need is
02:23:06.140 a bishop with valid
02:23:07.220 apostolic succession
02:23:08.120 and the right belief.
02:23:11.760 Yeah,
02:23:12.380 and,
02:23:13.320 you know,
02:23:14.380 I started asking questions
02:23:15.300 to myself,
02:23:16.060 like even when I was Catholic,
02:23:17.360 like,
02:23:18.540 if papal supremacy is true,
02:23:20.980 why are Orthodox emperors
02:23:23.400 calling the councils?
02:23:24.320 That doesn't make any sense.
02:23:25.360 Hmm.
02:23:26.600 Hmm.
02:23:28.040 Hmm.
02:23:29.260 Right.
02:23:29.700 Why?
02:23:30.120 Why was it not the Pope
02:23:31.340 who was calling the councils?
02:23:32.300 That's a good question,
02:23:33.520 right?
02:23:34.260 Yeah.
02:23:34.420 And then why would,
02:23:35.540 like,
02:23:35.680 and then the Pope crowns,
02:23:36.760 like,
02:23:37.020 another Roman emperor
02:23:38.400 in the West.
02:23:39.340 Right.
02:23:39.580 And then he doesn't,
02:23:40.180 why doesn't he call the councils?
02:23:41.660 Well,
02:23:41.980 see,
02:23:42.520 see,
02:23:42.800 if you read the Acts
02:23:43.480 of the Seventh Council,
02:23:45.280 I think that was very important,
02:23:47.440 you know,
02:23:47.760 the Iconoclasm Council,
02:23:49.060 because they call the emperor
02:23:51.300 the God-ordained,
02:23:52.640 God-bearing emperor
02:23:53.460 or something to that effect.
02:23:55.100 Yeah.
02:23:55.280 Now,
02:23:55.620 if the emperor
02:23:57.040 at the council
02:23:58.180 of the 787
02:23:58.940 is,
02:24:00.420 and everybody believes,
02:24:01.960 the Seventh Council
02:24:02.680 against Iconoclasm,
02:24:03.760 right?
02:24:04.700 Right.
02:24:05.480 If he,
02:24:05.940 if that's,
02:24:06.620 like,
02:24:06.860 how could there be
02:24:07.440 this other one?
02:24:08.940 Yes,
02:24:09.440 yes.
02:24:09.820 Or how could you just
02:24:10.640 crown this other emperor,
02:24:12.020 right?
02:24:13.480 So I think that the,
02:24:15.340 I think there's something to,
02:24:16.560 you know,
02:24:16.700 the Romanides thesis
02:24:17.800 of the Frankist,
02:24:20.160 Frankish theology
02:24:21.660 and all this kind of stuff,
02:24:22.700 and there's something to that.
02:24:24.360 I don't buy everything
02:24:25.100 Romanides says.
02:24:26.200 I'm actually,
02:24:26.720 I'm not that big of a fan
02:24:27.520 of Romanides anymore,
02:24:28.360 but there is something
02:24:30.300 to that Carolinian deviation
02:24:33.700 in that period where,
02:24:35.160 because you have an explicit change
02:24:38.620 in the iconology,
02:24:41.580 actually.
02:24:42.420 Right.
02:24:42.900 This is,
02:24:43.340 you know,
02:24:43.540 and so there's something
02:24:44.660 going on here.
02:24:45.420 This is where the filioque
02:24:46.260 starts to creep in.
02:24:48.480 Something's going on,
02:24:49.480 so.
02:24:49.940 No,
02:24:50.340 I mean,
02:24:50.860 this is absolutely,
02:24:51.780 I mean,
02:24:52.000 we could probably talk
02:24:53.120 about this for like three
02:24:54.060 or four more hours
02:24:54.840 with an interruption.
02:24:55.800 I got the question,
02:24:57.040 though.
02:24:58.800 Now,
02:24:59.320 I'm going to talk
02:25:00.280 in Spanglerian terms a bit.
02:25:01.480 Where do you think
02:25:02.340 we can draw the line
02:25:03.360 between when the Faustin
02:25:07.040 and Christian,
02:25:07.520 so to speak,
02:25:08.040 become essentially papism
02:25:10.300 and when it becomes
02:25:11.480 just Western orthodoxy?
02:25:13.760 I mean,
02:25:14.040 where exactly should we
02:25:15.060 draw the line there?
02:25:16.160 I mean,
02:25:16.320 what should we keep
02:25:17.160 and what could we reject?
02:25:20.060 I'm sorry,
02:25:20.660 I didn't understand that.
02:25:21.500 Could you repeat it?
02:25:22.780 Where should we draw
02:25:23.460 the line between,
02:25:24.340 you know,
02:25:24.540 a Western
02:25:25.160 or Faustian
02:25:26.480 adaptation of Christianity,
02:25:30.080 sort of Western orthodox,
02:25:31.400 if you will,
02:25:31.780 and this,
02:25:33.460 you know,
02:25:35.760 heretical borderline,
02:25:36.740 heretic papism?
02:25:38.480 Oh,
02:25:38.940 you mean in history?
02:25:40.520 Yeah,
02:25:41.140 and in practice
02:25:42.760 as well these days.
02:25:44.720 Oh,
02:25:45.180 okay.
02:25:45.560 Hmm.
02:25:46.660 Yeah,
02:25:47.100 that's a very difficult question.
02:25:48.400 I tend to be a little forgiving
02:25:51.000 just because of my own track,
02:25:53.640 you know,
02:25:54.000 out of,
02:25:54.520 out of Roman Catholic stuff
02:25:56.720 and,
02:25:57.200 and towards the East
02:25:58.540 to,
02:26:00.160 you know,
02:26:00.440 I,
02:26:00.740 I just,
02:26:01.520 I don't want to be too judgmental
02:26:02.940 of people in the Middle Ages
02:26:04.120 who,
02:26:04.740 you know,
02:26:04.860 like,
02:26:05.180 people will say,
02:26:06.360 oh,
02:26:06.580 look,
02:26:07.020 you know,
02:26:08.100 venerable bead included
02:26:09.760 the filiocque.
02:26:10.480 you know,
02:26:12.200 I think that a lot
02:26:13.020 of those people
02:26:13.660 didn't know
02:26:15.340 what was going on
02:26:16.500 in other parts
02:26:17.060 of the empire
02:26:18.160 or the realm
02:26:18.700 or,
02:26:18.960 you know,
02:26:19.140 I'll give them
02:26:20.080 the benefit of the doubt
02:26:20.880 is what I'm trying to say.
02:26:21.720 So,
02:26:21.940 I don't know.
02:26:22.620 That's a good question.
02:26:23.340 I don't know when,
02:26:24.160 when is the,
02:26:27.080 you know,
02:26:28.580 the definitive point
02:26:29.420 which,
02:26:29.880 which we need
02:26:32.560 to,
02:26:32.940 like,
02:26:33.380 cut it off.
02:26:34.360 I don't know.
02:26:34.860 But,
02:26:35.080 yeah,
02:26:35.240 I mean,
02:26:36.560 I think,
02:26:41.360 I think
02:26:44.540 for contemporary
02:26:45.860 Western stuff,
02:26:48.480 you know,
02:26:48.820 you get into the issue
02:26:50.180 of the jurisdictional
02:26:51.100 problems in America
02:26:52.080 and I have no idea.
02:26:53.580 I have no clue
02:26:54.700 how to,
02:26:55.460 how any of that
02:26:56.000 can be solved.
02:26:57.200 Yeah,
02:26:57.740 because maybe it's,
02:26:58.780 maybe it's just
02:26:59.200 mental gymnastics.
02:27:00.860 I'm not even a Catholic
02:27:02.260 so I don't know why
02:27:03.060 I'm going full papers
02:27:04.300 into the Defense League
02:27:05.220 but couldn't you say
02:27:07.600 that the submission
02:27:08.940 to the Roman pontiff,
02:27:11.060 the Pope,
02:27:11.600 so to speak,
02:27:12.320 would be a sort of
02:27:13.880 Faustian hierarchy,
02:27:15.180 right?
02:27:15.340 It's reaching for the stars
02:27:16.860 but it's like reaching
02:27:17.800 from God.
02:27:19.200 So you kind of go
02:27:20.140 from below upwards
02:27:21.480 rather than from God
02:27:23.560 through the energies
02:27:24.440 to,
02:27:25.120 you know,
02:27:26.340 the creation,
02:27:27.020 so to speak,
02:27:27.700 as you have in the East.
02:27:30.380 Yes,
02:27:31.100 but it's also true
02:27:32.580 that,
02:27:32.960 like,
02:27:33.120 the history of
02:27:33.820 the relationship
02:27:35.200 between the various
02:27:36.200 sees and patriarchs
02:27:37.600 has been messy.
02:27:38.980 So we have a pretty
02:27:40.440 messy history
02:27:41.120 of the Church
02:27:41.580 and so you have
02:27:42.180 the Occasions schism
02:27:43.200 where you had problems,
02:27:45.360 you know,
02:27:45.600 even back in the
02:27:46.360 4th and 5th century
02:27:47.260 that are roughly
02:27:49.600 similar to
02:27:50.940 what you get
02:27:52.740 with the Roman split
02:27:55.160 and there were times
02:27:56.480 when many of the
02:27:57.140 patriarchs of
02:27:58.000 Constantinople
02:27:58.780 were heretics,
02:28:00.740 like awful
02:28:01.260 and Rome
02:28:02.460 was Orthodox.
02:28:03.980 So that's,
02:28:05.220 you know,
02:28:05.440 that's the reality
02:28:06.100 in the history
02:28:06.580 of the Church
02:28:07.120 and I think
02:28:10.500 that the thesis
02:28:12.260 that what happened
02:28:14.300 to Rome
02:28:15.240 is also political
02:28:17.860 is very important
02:28:19.040 is that you did have
02:28:21.540 Frankish power
02:28:23.260 that wanted to
02:28:24.440 have an empire
02:28:26.540 that wasn't subject
02:28:27.740 to Constantinople,
02:28:29.340 that wasn't subject
02:28:30.480 to what had already
02:28:31.320 been declared
02:28:31.960 as Orthodox
02:28:32.760 and authoritative.
02:28:35.140 So there's something
02:28:36.040 to that,
02:28:36.600 but I don't know,
02:28:37.760 man,
02:28:37.980 they're very tough
02:28:40.000 questions.
02:28:40.300 So yeah,
02:28:41.760 I mean,
02:28:42.040 basically what I'm
02:28:42.660 trying to hint at
02:28:43.400 is perhaps
02:28:44.480 the sort of
02:28:47.500 papist mentality
02:28:48.880 at least
02:28:49.540 could be
02:28:50.600 very valid
02:28:51.220 and Orthodox
02:28:51.780 with a few,
02:28:53.100 you know,
02:28:53.860 cutting off
02:28:54.460 certain things perhaps
02:28:55.420 within the realm
02:28:56.600 of the Western civilization
02:28:57.580 because that would
02:28:58.280 basically adapt
02:28:59.040 our mentality
02:28:59.840 to the Christian view.
02:29:03.480 Yeah,
02:29:04.060 so like if,
02:29:05.360 and I think
02:29:05.840 what's going to happen
02:29:06.500 is that Rome
02:29:07.600 because of Vatican II
02:29:08.820 and charging forward
02:29:10.600 into total madness
02:29:12.800 with Frank
02:29:14.800 is that
02:29:16.300 there's going to,
02:29:18.000 Frankenstein.
02:29:19.500 Just call me George.
02:29:20.800 Okay.
02:29:21.540 Yeah.
02:29:24.780 You're going to see
02:29:25.880 the continued dissolution
02:29:27.400 of it
02:29:27.820 and people are just
02:29:28.580 going to filter out
02:29:29.580 into things like Orthodoxy.
02:29:31.360 you know,
02:29:32.660 could you have,
02:29:34.720 I mean,
02:29:35.060 ideally we should just have
02:29:37.020 like Western Orthodox churches.
02:29:39.740 Well,
02:29:39.900 that's what I desperately
02:29:40.700 love to have,
02:29:41.540 but.
02:29:41.860 Yeah,
02:29:41.980 that's what we should,
02:29:42.880 we should have
02:29:43.680 and it's just a very weird
02:29:45.020 difficult situation
02:29:45.960 but I have hope
02:29:47.220 and I have an optimistic
02:29:49.000 view of the future
02:29:49.640 that I think that yes,
02:29:50.660 you could eventually have,
02:29:53.540 I mean,
02:29:53.880 hey,
02:29:54.200 there have been cases
02:29:55.240 of mass conversions
02:29:56.580 of Protestants,
02:29:57.680 right,
02:29:58.040 to Orthodox theology
02:30:00.240 and I wouldn't be surprised
02:30:01.640 if we don't see
02:30:02.320 that kind of stuff
02:30:02.980 in the future,
02:30:03.760 like mass conversions of.
02:30:05.340 I actually talked
02:30:06.420 to a union about this
02:30:07.480 and his personal opinion
02:30:08.380 is that what's going
02:30:09.140 to occur is,
02:30:10.800 you know,
02:30:11.120 George or whoever
02:30:11.860 comes after him
02:30:12.520 is just going to declare
02:30:13.280 something heretical
02:30:14.040 ex-cathedra
02:30:14.860 and everybody
02:30:15.720 who takes it seriously
02:30:16.620 is going to skizz him,
02:30:17.620 so.
02:30:18.940 Yes,
02:30:19.560 and I mean,
02:30:20.180 we've already seen that
02:30:20.920 with SSPX
02:30:21.780 and eventually,
02:30:23.260 you know,
02:30:23.400 the SSPX itself
02:30:24.540 now is splitting
02:30:25.620 into two camps,
02:30:26.700 so,
02:30:28.220 you know,
02:30:28.420 how long are you going
02:30:29.520 to be able to maintain
02:30:30.460 the mythology
02:30:31.880 that,
02:30:32.800 you know,
02:30:34.140 Rome's been,
02:30:34.940 quasi-heretical,
02:30:37.120 material heretical
02:30:37.960 for however many
02:30:39.540 decades now,
02:30:40.280 50,
02:30:40.480 is it going to be
02:30:40.820 like 300 years
02:30:41.640 without a pope?
02:30:42.260 I mean,
02:30:42.420 come on.
02:30:43.360 You know,
02:30:43.580 eventually,
02:30:44.060 eventually these people
02:30:45.420 are going to,
02:30:46.800 you know,
02:30:47.540 filter their way out
02:30:48.420 into what's still around
02:30:50.660 and I think that
02:30:51.520 what everybody's wanting
02:30:53.420 is what was always there.
02:30:56.280 Everybody,
02:30:56.800 we want the theology
02:30:58.240 and the church
02:30:59.560 of the first thousand years.
02:31:00.640 That's what everybody wants.
02:31:01.960 Who's serious about it?
02:31:03.040 Deep down.
02:31:03.280 No,
02:31:03.480 I agree with you 100%,
02:31:04.740 and I mean,
02:31:06.100 I have a really
02:31:07.120 kind of good view
02:31:07.820 of this myself
02:31:08.840 because I talk to
02:31:09.660 like a lot of young
02:31:10.660 men and women
02:31:11.180 who are like nationalists
02:31:12.600 who are moral
02:31:13.220 and it's like
02:31:14.120 they're dying
02:31:15.160 for orthodoxy.
02:31:17.120 Yeah.
02:31:17.940 Yeah.
02:31:18.580 And so,
02:31:18.980 anyway,
02:31:19.380 let's go into
02:31:20.600 Kali Yuga news
02:31:21.980 so that we don't go
02:31:23.000 into like a
02:31:23.940 four-hour podcast
02:31:25.100 or anything like that.
02:31:26.820 Oh,
02:31:27.380 the more sports.
02:31:28.380 So,
02:31:28.600 I've done record ones.
02:31:31.120 We did one
02:31:31.580 that was over six hours.
02:31:33.140 Wow.
02:31:34.640 God bless you,
02:31:35.400 fam.
02:31:36.560 Go ahead.
02:31:37.500 Okay,
02:31:37.980 so,
02:31:38.300 Jay,
02:31:38.600 the way basically
02:31:39.140 that we usually
02:31:39.680 do Kali Yuga news
02:31:40.700 is that everybody
02:31:41.500 kind of picks a story
02:31:42.680 and then they kind of
02:31:43.540 read the headline
02:31:44.160 and then they'll discuss
02:31:45.020 the story,
02:31:45.740 you know,
02:31:46.220 read a little bit
02:31:46.740 of the body
02:31:47.160 and then we'll discuss it.
02:31:48.860 So,
02:31:49.320 being the guest of honor,
02:31:50.600 I want to give you
02:31:51.100 the first pick.
02:31:51.780 Oh,
02:31:54.420 I'm sorry,
02:31:54.820 I didn't prepare for that.
02:31:55.840 I don't,
02:31:56.280 I don't have any,
02:31:57.040 I'm kind of just sitting here
02:31:58.080 and oh,
02:31:58.700 no,
02:31:58.940 you don't,
02:31:59.300 well,
02:31:59.460 it's in the show notes.
02:32:01.460 So here,
02:32:01.760 I don't,
02:32:01.940 I don't have those pulled up.
02:32:02.920 I'm actually on my phone
02:32:03.980 so that I can walk around.
02:32:05.320 Ah,
02:32:06.060 I see.
02:32:06.860 I like to pace and talk.
02:32:08.440 No,
02:32:08.700 no,
02:32:08.940 no,
02:32:09.180 perfectly fine.
02:32:09.980 Then one of us will.
02:32:11.240 Go ahead.
02:32:12.000 Sure.
02:32:13.040 Grieve,
02:32:13.340 Hans,
02:32:13.660 why would you go first?
02:32:18.760 Oh,
02:32:20.140 Grieve?
02:32:21.780 Well,
02:32:23.740 it looks like Grieve's
02:32:24.400 dropped the ball as well.
02:32:25.380 Oh,
02:32:25.900 never mind,
02:32:26.440 never mind.
02:32:26.920 Sorry,
02:32:27.220 my microphone was neutered.
02:32:29.040 I'll pick the,
02:32:30.060 the nun one.
02:32:31.820 Speak of speech,
02:32:32.860 right?
02:32:33.980 Let's just read the headline here.
02:32:36.080 Nun shocks,
02:32:36.840 nun shocks church
02:32:38.460 by suggesting
02:32:39.280 Jesus' mother
02:32:40.300 wasn't a virgin.
02:32:43.360 Now,
02:32:43.980 if you,
02:32:44.340 I just want to say
02:32:45.280 one thing here.
02:32:45.840 If you look at the nose
02:32:46.940 of this,
02:32:47.640 this nun,
02:32:48.700 it echoes a bit.
02:32:49.560 a Catholic nun
02:32:52.960 in Spain
02:32:53.380 has caused outrage
02:32:58.380 after she suggested
02:32:59.380 that Virgin Mary
02:33:00.060 may not have been
02:33:00.720 virgin after all.
02:33:01.720 The controversial
02:33:02.300 Dominican nun
02:33:03.140 invented the ire
02:33:04.820 of the Catholic Church
02:33:05.740 who responded
02:33:06.340 in her statement
02:33:07.260 in anger.
02:33:08.500 Sister Lucia
02:33:09.200 Caram
02:33:10.220 was speaking
02:33:11.540 on talk show
02:33:12.460 over the weekend
02:33:13.120 when she let slip
02:33:14.260 her belief
02:33:15.060 that contradicts
02:33:16.100 one of the key
02:33:16.900 pillars of her faith.
02:33:17.660 I think that Mary
02:33:18.800 was in love with Joseph
02:33:19.600 and they were
02:33:20.280 a normal couple
02:33:20.960 and the normal thing
02:33:22.120 is to have sex,
02:33:23.100 Caram told
02:33:24.000 Christo mei doen
02:33:26.160 during Sunday's
02:33:27.240 Chester in Love program.
02:33:29.700 According,
02:33:30.200 yeah,
02:33:30.620 so basically
02:33:31.240 she's sprouting heresy
02:33:32.780 and she's saying
02:33:33.420 that the Virgin Mary
02:33:34.420 was,
02:33:35.140 it was,
02:33:35.900 not a virgin.
02:33:37.560 Not a never virgin.
02:33:38.680 Right.
02:33:38.900 Exactly.
02:33:39.480 And the thing that,
02:33:41.440 what happens here,
02:33:42.380 if,
02:33:42.780 if,
02:33:43.100 if Jesus was
02:33:44.100 the son of Joseph
02:33:45.120 and Mary,
02:33:45.600 this means that
02:33:46.740 he,
02:33:47.220 he was,
02:33:47.840 he was just a man.
02:33:49.700 Exactly.
02:33:50.500 And then you,
02:33:52.660 go ahead,
02:33:52.940 sorry.
02:33:53.060 No,
02:33:53.560 seriously,
02:33:54.020 let me just finish here.
02:33:55.240 So this,
02:33:55.940 this one thing,
02:33:56.700 it's like
02:33:57.280 a diabolical arrow
02:33:59.540 that's sent
02:34:00.240 at
02:34:01.120 the,
02:34:02.340 the one point
02:34:03.340 which,
02:34:04.280 with our,
02:34:04.840 you know,
02:34:05.060 modern scientific thinking
02:34:06.620 would be the weak point
02:34:08.060 of Christian Theologa
02:34:09.560 that is
02:34:09.980 the virgin birth.
02:34:11.380 So what you do here
02:34:12.560 is that you literally
02:34:13.380 deconstruct the whole church
02:34:14.440 because you're saying
02:34:15.460 that Jesus was not
02:34:16.560 the son of God.
02:34:17.200 So you're saying
02:34:17.700 that the church
02:34:18.240 is not the body of Christ
02:34:19.540 and you're saying
02:34:20.280 that the church
02:34:20.820 is not a divine construction
02:34:22.660 and thus you're saying
02:34:23.860 that it's,
02:34:25.000 it's just an institution.
02:34:26.280 It's just a part of,
02:34:28.000 it's human construct.
02:34:29.120 That's what you're saying
02:34:29.800 implicitly.
02:34:31.080 It's a heresy.
02:34:32.340 This was the teaching
02:34:33.380 of Skillebeck's,
02:34:34.540 the,
02:34:34.780 the famous
02:34:35.400 Roman Catholic liberal
02:34:37.140 who essentially
02:34:38.040 ditched the whole thing.
02:34:40.480 and he started
02:34:42.600 with that same presupposition
02:34:44.020 and then ended up
02:34:44.940 with,
02:34:45.160 well,
02:34:45.300 yeah,
02:34:45.480 I guess Jesus is a man.
02:34:46.460 If he's just a man
02:34:47.100 then the whole thing's
02:34:47.800 not true.
02:34:48.540 So there was,
02:34:50.420 there have been
02:34:51.240 American bishops
02:34:52.440 and archbishops
02:34:53.560 who have taught that
02:34:55.180 openly
02:34:55.940 and never got,
02:34:57.620 yeah,
02:34:57.920 never got censored
02:34:58.740 from the Vatican,
02:35:00.400 never got in trouble.
02:35:01.400 So.
02:35:02.380 I mean,
02:35:02.620 what you should do
02:35:03.460 with these people
02:35:04.180 is that you,
02:35:04.880 you force these people
02:35:06.120 to have a Vatican passport
02:35:07.260 and if they say shit
02:35:08.500 like this,
02:35:08.960 you just,
02:35:09.280 you just kindly
02:35:10.200 beg the,
02:35:11.720 the country
02:35:12.880 to externalize them
02:35:13.860 to the Vatican state
02:35:14.900 and then the Pope
02:35:15.620 can punish them
02:35:16.280 as King of Vatican.
02:35:17.280 Problem solved.
02:35:19.440 Yeah,
02:35:19.880 and we'll have heredict.
02:35:20.600 Yeah,
02:35:20.780 well,
02:35:21.040 you know,
02:35:21.360 that would be,
02:35:21.760 it'd be real nice.
02:35:22.760 I mean,
02:35:23.260 but it's not gonna happen
02:35:25.200 with Mr.
02:35:25.920 Yeah,
02:35:26.160 it won't happen
02:35:28.400 but that's what should happen.
02:35:29.880 Right?
02:35:30.140 But,
02:35:30.400 I don't know,
02:35:31.000 could have,
02:35:31.420 should have,
02:35:31.640 would have.
02:35:33.260 This,
02:35:33.700 this is just the same.
02:35:34.540 And,
02:35:34.720 you know,
02:35:35.100 this comes from Spain,
02:35:36.580 the country that was perhaps
02:35:37.760 one of the most pious
02:35:38.880 in all of European history.
02:35:41.500 I mean,
02:35:41.880 this is the country of,
02:35:42.980 you know,
02:35:43.300 the Inquisition.
02:35:44.480 This is the country of Franco.
02:35:45.760 This is the,
02:35:46.260 the country of,
02:35:47.580 you know,
02:35:48.580 Loyala,
02:35:49.180 even though,
02:35:49.600 you know,
02:35:50.220 maybe he was.
02:35:50.700 Well,
02:35:51.120 Spain and,
02:35:52.940 and Portugal
02:35:53.700 have had their
02:35:54.720 Masonic Republican revolutions
02:35:56.340 and now they have
02:35:57.520 gay marriage and abortions.
02:35:58.880 So they're.
02:35:59.120 Yeah,
02:35:59.280 it's being warped.
02:36:00.320 I mean,
02:36:00.500 even Spender said
02:36:01.360 that the,
02:36:01.820 the,
02:36:02.180 the,
02:36:02.640 the Spanish people
02:36:03.620 are the,
02:36:04.380 one of the most pious
02:36:05.460 in,
02:36:06.020 in,
02:36:06.420 in Europe
02:36:07.640 because they have
02:36:08.280 almost like
02:36:08.920 a priestly mentality
02:36:10.480 in their national mentality
02:36:11.660 and this is what
02:36:12.240 it's being warped to.
02:36:13.180 I mean,
02:36:13.380 the,
02:36:13.540 the,
02:36:13.760 the Anglos become
02:36:14.600 kikes,
02:36:15.140 the Germans become,
02:36:16.260 well,
02:36:16.520 God knows what,
02:36:17.260 and the,
02:36:17.520 the Spaniards become
02:36:19.020 this shit.
02:36:20.420 It's disgusting.
02:36:22.920 It is.
02:36:23.780 I don't mean to make light of it,
02:36:25.100 but yeah,
02:36:25.300 I mean,
02:36:26.320 when I was a Roman Catholic
02:36:27.820 for a long time,
02:36:28.600 you know,
02:36:28.800 I would,
02:36:29.140 I followed those headlines
02:36:30.320 that like,
02:36:30.880 Nova Sorta watch
02:36:31.800 and whatever
02:36:34.300 the,
02:36:34.600 the traditional
02:36:36.240 Catholic daily
02:36:36.880 or whatever
02:36:37.360 all those sites were
02:36:38.200 and you would just see
02:36:39.020 this stuff like
02:36:41.280 nonstop
02:36:41.940 in the,
02:36:42.600 in the trad news
02:36:43.360 and then eventually
02:36:43.960 it's just like,
02:36:45.020 why are none of these
02:36:45.940 people in trouble?
02:36:46.900 Like they never,
02:36:47.860 like they'll,
02:36:48.600 they'll discipline
02:36:49.420 Lefebvre,
02:36:50.460 they'll discipline,
02:36:51.260 you know,
02:36:51.520 the,
02:36:51.740 the SS guys,
02:36:53.080 they won't touch
02:36:53.800 these people.
02:36:54.560 Well,
02:36:54.640 yeah,
02:36:54.840 Timothy Radcliffe
02:36:55.840 said that sodomy
02:36:57.080 was Eucharistic.
02:36:58.200 The,
02:36:58.640 you know,
02:36:59.660 superior general
02:37:00.300 of the order of preachers,
02:37:01.360 the Dominicans.
02:37:02.800 Well,
02:37:03.200 he said it was
02:37:04.020 Eucharistic?
02:37:05.040 Yes.
02:37:05.680 The former superior general
02:37:06.920 of the,
02:37:08.180 I mean,
02:37:08.540 what the fuck?
02:37:09.240 The Dominicans said
02:37:09.860 it was Eucharistic,
02:37:10.820 yeah.
02:37:11.720 This is literally
02:37:12.660 some traveling
02:37:13.320 and sex magic shit.
02:37:14.300 This is like
02:37:14.780 some weird gnostic sect.
02:37:16.920 And I mean,
02:37:17.680 it's,
02:37:18.100 it's so open
02:37:18.800 at this point.
02:37:20.160 I mean,
02:37:20.560 shit like this
02:37:21.300 makes me realize
02:37:21.900 it's not we who are
02:37:22.760 saying it's everyone else.
02:37:24.360 It is.
02:37:24.900 And,
02:37:25.100 and they,
02:37:25.840 you know,
02:37:26.600 this was a long-term plan.
02:37:29.000 You can read,
02:37:29.960 you know,
02:37:30.160 the,
02:37:30.320 the Alta Vendita,
02:37:31.360 that was their
02:37:32.140 large plan
02:37:33.280 was to
02:37:33.940 not destroy
02:37:35.080 the papacy,
02:37:35.800 but to turn
02:37:36.320 the papacy
02:37:36.960 into an,
02:37:38.100 an organ
02:37:39.000 of the revolution.
02:37:41.100 Yeah,
02:37:41.540 that's,
02:37:41.900 that's insane.
02:37:43.260 Right.
02:37:43.740 And I mean,
02:37:44.180 it wouldn't even surprise me
02:37:45.260 because you have this,
02:37:46.320 this,
02:37:46.580 you know,
02:37:46.840 lofty papal idea
02:37:49.240 and if you can just corrupt
02:37:50.120 that as well,
02:37:50.700 you'll corrupt
02:37:51.020 the whole of your church.
02:37:52.500 Exactly.
02:37:52.860 I'll take the next story.
02:37:56.440 I saw this one
02:37:57.540 this morning
02:37:58.080 and it,
02:37:58.640 I'll just read it.
02:38:02.760 From the Washington Times,
02:38:05.020 Planned Parenthood
02:38:06.060 kept
02:38:06.520 aborted babies alive
02:38:08.080 to harvest organs,
02:38:10.260 ex-technician says.
02:38:12.640 Kept them alive.
02:38:14.400 They kept them alive.
02:38:16.140 Yes.
02:38:16.400 What the fuck?
02:38:17.300 In a new undercover
02:38:20.720 video released Wednesday,
02:38:22.000 a former technician
02:38:22.840 for a tissue harvesting
02:38:24.320 company
02:38:24.800 details how
02:38:26.280 an aborted baby
02:38:27.140 was kept alive
02:38:28.060 that its heart
02:38:28.700 can be harvested
02:38:29.340 at a California
02:38:30.080 Planned Parenthood facility.
02:38:32.580 Raising more legal questions
02:38:34.100 about the group's practices.
02:38:36.660 This,
02:38:37.100 this,
02:38:37.400 this is like some,
02:38:38.320 some fucked up
02:38:39.100 moloch ritual
02:38:40.260 or some shit.
02:38:41.200 I mean,
02:38:41.640 Yeah.
02:38:43.080 You're harvesting
02:38:44.080 the heart of a living baby.
02:38:45.500 I mean,
02:38:45.640 what you,
02:38:46.080 what are you even doing
02:38:46.840 with the heart?
02:38:47.220 Are you doing
02:38:47.600 scientific experiments
02:38:48.500 with the heart?
02:38:49.380 Or are you like
02:38:50.060 giving it to another baby
02:38:51.040 at least?
02:38:52.020 I mean,
02:38:52.260 what are you doing
02:38:52.980 with it?
02:38:53.860 Does it say that?
02:38:55.580 Holly O'Donnell,
02:38:56.700 a former blood and tissue
02:38:57.640 procurement technician
02:38:58.660 for the biotech startup
02:39:00.080 STEM Express,
02:39:02.100 also said
02:39:03.140 she was asked
02:39:04.040 to harvest
02:39:04.580 an intact brain
02:39:05.740 from a late-term
02:39:07.240 male fetus
02:39:08.200 whose heart
02:39:08.700 was still beating
02:39:09.360 after the abortion.
02:39:10.400 What the fuck?
02:39:11.920 When you watch
02:39:12.500 X-Files
02:39:13.100 and you see
02:39:13.920 like the episodes
02:39:14.880 where Mulder and Scully
02:39:16.060 like break into
02:39:16.700 these facilities
02:39:17.380 and they've got
02:39:18.360 these giant vats
02:39:19.260 with like
02:39:20.120 babies in
02:39:21.520 test tubes
02:39:22.800 and they're being
02:39:23.280 experimented on,
02:39:24.180 that's real.
02:39:25.140 That's what I've been
02:39:25.740 saying for a long time.
02:39:27.400 I mean,
02:39:28.000 this is a late-term abortion.
02:39:29.440 It's like a third-trivence
02:39:30.880 of abortion.
02:39:31.760 I mean,
02:39:32.140 then the baby's
02:39:32.960 basically fully formed.
02:39:34.700 I mean,
02:39:34.880 it will survive.
02:39:35.820 No problem.
02:39:36.580 Yes.
02:39:37.160 If you saw the,
02:39:38.180 you know,
02:39:38.380 the Project Veritas videos,
02:39:39.720 I don't think
02:39:40.180 any of this
02:39:40.520 should be surprising.
02:39:41.540 No,
02:39:41.780 I saw them.
02:39:42.700 Yeah,
02:39:43.020 I mean,
02:39:43.280 one of these
02:39:44.040 Planned Parenthood
02:39:46.040 witches,
02:39:47.980 she literally said,
02:39:48.640 oh,
02:39:48.900 I want the Lamborghini.
02:39:50.020 That's why I do this
02:39:50.760 because I want the Lamborghini
02:39:52.000 and this Lamborghini,
02:39:53.040 this would really give me
02:39:53.720 happiness when I am dead.
02:39:57.800 Yeah,
02:39:58.280 I mean,
02:39:58.640 this is hell
02:39:59.740 if she doesn't repent.
02:40:01.180 You know,
02:40:01.380 I mean,
02:40:01.580 the thing is,
02:40:02.120 I mean,
02:40:06.280 these stories,
02:40:07.080 I mean,
02:40:07.380 it's like,
02:40:08.140 we talk about this
02:40:09.280 more or less every week.
02:40:11.040 I mean,
02:40:11.220 we have stories like this
02:40:12.400 and there is no end.
02:40:15.160 No,
02:40:15.700 well,
02:40:15.860 that's what I try to sell people
02:40:17.000 is like,
02:40:17.900 hell is in fact
02:40:19.440 a bottomless pit
02:40:20.440 and there is no
02:40:22.200 like,
02:40:23.200 end to the levels
02:40:24.440 of depravity
02:40:25.220 that human beings
02:40:26.480 are capable of sinking.
02:40:28.200 And,
02:40:28.520 you know,
02:40:28.860 we're living,
02:40:29.780 you know,
02:40:30.020 Sodom and Gomorrah
02:40:30.800 were destroyed
02:40:31.960 for much,
02:40:34.980 much less severe crimes
02:40:37.020 than are committed
02:40:38.420 on a daily basis
02:40:39.260 all across
02:40:40.100 the Western world.
02:40:42.000 I don't know,
02:40:42.360 that could be debated,
02:40:43.420 I suppose.
02:40:44.960 Fucking hell,
02:40:45.680 though.
02:40:46.920 Well,
02:40:47.360 I mean,
02:40:47.620 the thing is,
02:40:49.020 they keep pushing
02:40:50.340 for all this depraved shit.
02:40:51.560 I mean,
02:40:51.720 they're pushing
02:40:52.180 for pedosexuals now.
02:40:53.920 Let's become pedosexuals.
02:40:55.580 That's a thing,
02:40:56.200 by the way,
02:40:56.500 they literally push
02:40:57.500 for this now.
02:40:58.460 And the thing is,
02:40:59.140 if you react to God,
02:41:00.140 you react to morals,
02:41:01.060 we spring from God.
02:41:02.480 The morals themselves
02:41:03.260 is a result of,
02:41:04.440 you know,
02:41:04.640 having God.
02:41:05.740 So when you detach God
02:41:06.940 from the morals,
02:41:07.760 the morals are just
02:41:08.320 slowly rotting away
02:41:09.200 and then you can justify
02:41:10.040 this shit
02:41:10.460 because this,
02:41:11.140 you know,
02:41:12.340 norm-critical mentality
02:41:13.620 is the constant.
02:41:14.520 It's not a slippery slope
02:41:15.460 because this norm-critical mentality
02:41:16.940 is always there.
02:41:17.880 That's what I've been saying
02:41:18.740 now for like,
02:41:19.320 I don't know,
02:41:19.620 15 episodes.
02:41:21.180 And it's very important
02:41:22.440 to realize.
02:41:23.660 And that's,
02:41:24.140 you can't really have
02:41:25.480 a healthy society
02:41:26.220 without God.
02:41:26.760 You can't have a healthy society
02:41:27.740 without the church
02:41:28.340 and this is what you get
02:41:29.160 eventually.
02:41:29.580 Okay.
02:41:31.060 Yeah,
02:41:33.080 this has been going on
02:41:33.940 for a long time
02:41:34.740 because I was reading
02:41:35.580 Fire in the Minds of Men
02:41:37.280 recently
02:41:37.800 and like the
02:41:39.040 French Revolutionary
02:41:40.560 publications,
02:41:41.200 it was like,
02:41:42.820 I guess like
02:41:43.420 agitprop political stuff
02:41:45.200 mixed with pornography.
02:41:46.500 pornography and then
02:41:48.180 he,
02:41:50.120 the author also says
02:41:51.140 later on,
02:41:52.180 where is it?
02:41:54.460 It was like
02:41:55.120 Thomas Paine,
02:41:56.420 the American Revolutionary
02:41:57.820 and several other
02:42:00.400 French Revolutionary
02:42:01.380 luminaries
02:42:01.840 were like
02:42:02.320 extensive collectors
02:42:03.380 of pornography
02:42:04.280 and they,
02:42:06.760 a lot of the symbols
02:42:07.680 are adapted
02:42:08.520 from pagan
02:42:09.360 sex symbols.
02:42:10.360 so it's not,
02:42:14.380 I mean,
02:42:14.700 I guess it's,
02:42:15.240 it has a long heritage.
02:42:22.020 Yeah,
02:42:22.580 I had a couple,
02:42:24.000 I had a couple
02:42:25.500 really good
02:42:26.080 French Revolution
02:42:27.000 classes
02:42:27.540 and undergrad
02:42:28.500 and grad
02:42:28.920 that really
02:42:29.600 actually dove
02:42:30.180 into this stuff
02:42:30.800 that was like
02:42:32.280 the one
02:42:32.680 non-liberal
02:42:33.280 professor I had
02:42:34.040 was my
02:42:34.560 French Revolution
02:42:35.340 professor
02:42:35.840 and so
02:42:37.960 and now he wasn't
02:42:38.800 any kind of
02:42:39.180 conspiracy theorist
02:42:39.880 or anything like that
02:42:40.500 but ironically
02:42:41.540 it all came up
02:42:42.500 like it would
02:42:43.100 come up in
02:42:43.980 even the mainline
02:42:45.340 literature
02:42:45.800 about the French Revolution
02:42:46.720 that,
02:42:47.220 you know,
02:42:47.920 a lot of these people
02:42:48.460 were illuminous,
02:42:49.280 a lot of them
02:42:49.660 were coming out
02:42:51.040 of the lodges
02:42:51.740 and yeah,
02:42:52.680 it's conspiratorial
02:42:53.760 but it's not really
02:42:54.580 a conspiracy
02:42:55.100 so it's like,
02:42:55.940 what?
02:42:57.280 But yeah,
02:42:58.580 I mean,
02:42:58.820 this is the beginning
02:42:59.700 of the modern
02:43:00.380 revolutionary period
02:43:02.420 and you get,
02:43:03.620 you know,
02:43:04.000 out of that
02:43:04.560 the whole thing
02:43:05.700 is a war
02:43:06.700 on the throne
02:43:07.260 and altar
02:43:07.660 and that's why
02:43:08.680 the whole world
02:43:09.380 the whole world
02:43:10.060 now has these
02:43:10.920 democratic republics
02:43:12.240 so.
02:43:12.740 Yeah,
02:43:13.080 and they even
02:43:13.720 want to destroy
02:43:14.420 everything that
02:43:15.080 even resembles
02:43:16.120 you know,
02:43:16.800 a religion of God
02:43:17.620 I mean,
02:43:18.140 here in Sweden
02:43:18.880 for example
02:43:19.260 we have pride flags
02:43:20.380 on our altars
02:43:21.180 in the churches
02:43:21.900 at times
02:43:22.320 we have pride flags
02:43:23.680 I mean,
02:43:24.660 even the pride flag
02:43:26.080 I mean,
02:43:26.380 that's like
02:43:27.140 perverting
02:43:28.260 the problems
02:43:28.940 of the flood rights
02:43:29.820 So think of
02:43:31.220 Oh,
02:43:32.320 aha,
02:43:32.600 you're not going
02:43:32.900 to us now?
02:43:33.760 Yeah,
02:43:33.900 go ahead,
02:43:34.220 sorry.
02:43:34.920 No,
02:43:35.140 it's okay,
02:43:35.480 like so
02:43:36.020 people laugh
02:43:37.020 at reading
02:43:38.200 Chronicles
02:43:38.880 and 1st and 2nd Samuel
02:43:40.300 and Ezekiel
02:43:41.240 and Ezekiel
02:43:43.660 has this vision
02:43:45.760 where he looks
02:43:46.240 into the temple
02:43:46.860 and he sees
02:43:47.420 the priests
02:43:47.940 are doing
02:43:48.540 the service
02:43:49.960 of God
02:43:50.500 and then
02:43:50.960 they secretly
02:43:51.820 at night
02:43:52.660 go underground
02:43:53.420 and they have
02:43:54.000 like this
02:43:54.420 underground
02:43:56.240 cave
02:43:58.060 where they're
02:43:58.560 like worshipping
02:43:59.240 the sun
02:43:59.840 and doing
02:44:00.380 all this secret
02:44:01.120 stuff
02:44:01.580 so people
02:44:03.260 people laugh
02:44:03.960 at that
02:44:04.300 oh,
02:44:04.620 ha ha
02:44:04.880 you're so stupid
02:44:05.700 you believe
02:44:06.300 the Old Testament
02:44:07.160 you believe
02:44:08.120 Samuel
02:44:08.920 and Ezekiel
02:44:09.680 and lo and behold
02:44:11.700 like this is the world
02:44:13.600 that we now see
02:44:14.720 we now see
02:44:15.980 you know,
02:44:16.740 like Baal
02:44:17.320 and Moloch
02:44:18.180 and these
02:44:19.740 entities
02:44:20.800 and ultimately
02:44:22.460 a pride flag
02:44:23.880 on the altar
02:44:24.420 is just another
02:44:25.320 manifestation
02:44:25.940 of that same thing
02:44:26.520 so we live
02:44:27.040 in the same world
02:44:27.800 as Ezekiel
02:44:29.160 yeah,
02:44:29.560 I mean
02:44:29.860 just to get a bit
02:44:30.580 off topic
02:44:31.120 you want
02:44:31.520 back to the topic
02:44:32.520 perhaps
02:44:32.920 well that's
02:44:33.920 abortion shits
02:44:35.200 you know,
02:44:35.600 I mean
02:44:35.780 that's
02:44:36.340 sorry,
02:44:36.920 go on Hans
02:44:37.280 I mean
02:44:38.880 stem cell research
02:44:39.820 that's essentially
02:44:40.360 the same thing
02:44:40.940 as well
02:44:41.320 I mean
02:44:41.880 what you're doing
02:44:42.380 with stem cells
02:44:43.040 is that you're
02:44:43.740 like taking
02:44:44.440 the very thing
02:44:46.480 that will grow
02:44:47.140 into a normal
02:44:48.760 human being
02:44:49.260 and you're like
02:44:50.060 crushing that
02:44:51.060 and you're building
02:44:51.620 something else
02:44:52.280 with it
02:44:52.760 to help another
02:44:54.020 so-called human being
02:44:55.280 another
02:44:56.040 you know
02:44:57.420 I don't know
02:44:57.740 rich oligarchism shits
02:44:58.940 and that's
02:45:01.080 that's literally
02:45:01.980 demonic as well
02:45:02.720 well
02:45:03.020 it's the same
02:45:04.680 mentality
02:45:05.120 yeah
02:45:06.400 and that's like
02:45:07.320 with the transhumanism
02:45:08.320 thing
02:45:08.620 because what is stem cells
02:45:09.780 yeah
02:45:10.540 what is stem cells for
02:45:11.820 it's to prolong life
02:45:12.960 as much as possible
02:45:13.920 which you know
02:45:14.580 you need that
02:45:15.300 if you're a total nihilist
02:45:16.880 and
02:45:17.140 yeah
02:45:17.960 I mean
02:45:18.300 your source needs that
02:45:19.560 if he's going to be
02:45:20.300 in the machine
02:45:21.560 blowing stars up
02:45:22.660 right
02:45:22.860 yeah
02:45:27.060 I mean
02:45:27.420 that's the thing
02:45:28.360 I mean
02:45:28.620 you can't get to
02:45:29.300 emperor palpitee
02:45:30.580 type age
02:45:31.040 without those stem cells
02:45:31.980 you know
02:45:32.340 I mean
02:45:33.620 David Rockefeller
02:45:34.300 had five heart
02:45:35.000 transplants
02:45:35.500 I think it's
02:45:37.240 six or seven
02:45:37.840 now
02:45:38.120 oh
02:45:38.860 excuse me
02:45:39.880 yeah
02:45:40.080 it's insane
02:45:41.440 it's like
02:45:43.100 okay
02:45:43.500 Spice do you want to
02:45:44.860 pick your last article
02:45:45.900 and then we'll
02:45:46.360 close it out
02:45:46.940 yeah
02:45:47.640 I can do
02:45:48.700 kind of continuing
02:45:50.980 on the same theme
02:45:52.100 this is what it's like
02:45:53.340 to fall in love
02:45:54.360 with your sibling
02:45:55.340 defying laws
02:45:57.120 and social taboos
02:45:58.360 one couple
02:45:59.040 shares their
02:45:59.700 undeniable
02:46:00.980 connection
02:46:01.840 there is no end
02:46:04.120 yeah
02:46:08.280 until she was 40
02:46:09.820 Melissa
02:46:10.360 thought she was
02:46:11.600 an only child
02:46:12.620 for the first decade
02:46:13.680 of her life
02:46:14.340 she grew up
02:46:14.900 in a happy
02:46:15.400 suburban
02:46:15.880 upper middle
02:46:16.540 class area
02:46:17.140 of the Great Lakes
02:46:18.000 then her father
02:46:19.200 committed suicide
02:46:20.020 and soon after
02:46:21.040 her mother's
02:46:21.600 mental health
02:46:22.200 began to decline
02:46:23.420 fucking hell
02:46:28.180 trying to
02:46:29.060 just read
02:46:29.780 you have the
02:46:31.040 explanation right there
02:46:32.000 yeah
02:46:33.180 yeah
02:46:35.180 that says
02:46:35.600 in January
02:46:36.020 2015
02:46:36.840 a Facebook
02:46:37.540 friend request
02:46:38.240 came from Chris
02:46:39.220 a man she didn't
02:46:40.200 know
02:46:40.580 well clearly
02:46:41.360 this is her
02:46:42.000 brother
02:46:42.760 yeah
02:46:45.940 so
02:46:46.860 then
02:46:47.300 you can infer
02:46:48.300 from the rest
02:46:48.940 they have
02:46:49.540 this relationship
02:46:51.200 but I guess
02:46:54.300 you know
02:46:54.680 that's just
02:46:55.240 continuing
02:46:56.120 the destruction
02:46:56.800 of normal
02:46:57.560 relationships
02:46:59.860 normal family

02:50:33.940 think that
02:50:34.520 one of the
02:50:35.240 things I tried
02:50:35.680 to do in the

02:52:59.920 And today I got a special guest, it's Jay Dyer from Jay's Analysis.
02:53:04.640 And we're going to talk about his new article, Esoteric Hollywood, Toy Story.
02:53:12.080 Now, why don't you introduce yourself, Jay?
02:53:14.460 I mean, what are you doing?
02:53:15.980 What's your channel all about?
02:53:17.580 And, you know, what made you write this very intriguing article about the esoteric nature of Toy Story?
02:53:26.180 Well, I wanted to, you know, look at the role of predictive programming and revelation of the method in kids' movies.
02:53:37.420 You know, I was, I caught this on a TV, you know, going, flying out to L.A.
02:53:42.820 And, uh, I saw this stuff and I'm like, holy shit, there's, you know, there's a lot of symbolism in it.
02:53:52.360 So I wrote this piece about an esoteric analysis of, uh, Toy Story, based on my notes.
02:54:00.800 Yeah.
02:54:01.540 Yeah, I mean, there's several things in this article that I find really, really, really interesting.
02:54:05.680 I mean, one of them is the nature of Buzz Lightyear.
02:54:09.420 Like, you have this very Promethean, Luciferian, uh, character that basically seeks to rise Woody to his level, right?
02:54:17.100 He rises, uh, Woody, literally, into the air.
02:54:19.640 That is, from the earthly realm of human people into the, the aerial realm, the sanguine realm of the demon, demonic forces.
02:54:28.560 Right, there's multiple levels to Buzz Lightyear's character.
02:54:35.460 Uh, as you said, you know, he serves as kind of a Promethean, uh, you know, uh, archetype, uh, where he comes into Andy's room.
02:54:45.380 Uh, where he comes into Andy's room, you know, and kind of, uh, unseats Woody as the leader of the toys, right?
02:54:54.340 Um, and there's kind of a dialectic between Woody and, uh, Buzz Lightyear, because Woody represents, like, the old America, uh, uh, maybe a traditional, more traditional America as a cowboy, whereas, um, Buzz represents the, you know, the new technocratic future.
02:55:15.960 Oh, I see, and that's, that's a really interesting concept here.
02:55:20.200 I mean, I, I, I can really see this, this Woody character actually representing, you know, the common, traditional man.
02:55:26.560 And you have Buzz Lightyear, you know, this very Masonic character.
02:55:30.160 I mean, he, he is, like, clad in white as well, right?
02:55:33.140 This, this Masonic symbol of pureness being mocked by him actually trying to, uh, transcend the samsaric reality of the earthly realm.
02:55:44.520 And I find this really, really upsetting.
02:55:49.240 Well, let's, uh, look at his name, too.
02:55:51.620 Lightyear, Lucifer, Enlightenment.
02:55:56.060 Yeah, exactly, exactly.
02:55:57.120 It's not by accident.
02:55:58.700 No, no, I, I agree fully with you.
02:56:01.280 And we can also see the, the very demonic nature of the fact that we have non-human entities gaining sentience in this movie.
02:56:11.160 I mean, you have, like, the dog, you have the potato man, you have the, uh, uh, you know, all these different toys.
02:56:19.260 Not just the toys that are humanoid, like Buzz Lightyear and Woody.
02:56:23.500 Right, you know, it's never really explained, you know, why the toys are living, um, you know, I, I didn't really focus on that in the article, but that's certainly a possibility.
02:56:39.600 There's also kind of a commentary, I feel like, uh, on the space program, uh, because, you know, Buzz can't really fly his, uh, entire, you know, um, suit.
02:56:53.040 It's just for show, right, for kids to play with.
02:56:55.320 Yeah.
02:56:56.880 And, um, you know, so this is kind of like the Apollo program as a PSYOP, you know, to, uh, show, uh, give the appearance of a space program where, but then the real, the flight that we see is based on a lie.
02:57:15.860 You know, he, they fly because of the fireworks strapped to Buzz's back, not because he can actually fly.
02:57:23.900 But then, uh, you know, in that same scene, there's kind of the, uh, synthesis between Buzz and Woody, where they both fly and, uh, kind of come together as, as one.
02:57:36.860 Oh, this, this is very, does you have a point here?
02:57:39.380 Because what we have here is the combination of technology, the, the firework with this very, you know, demonically superior entity that's Buzz Lightyear, that might as well, you know, be a Nephilim.
02:57:50.900 I mean, he's very tall.
02:57:52.240 He's taller than Woody.
02:57:54.120 And he's very technologically advanced.
02:57:56.800 Again, Nephilim, the Nephilim were very, very technologically advanced.
02:58:00.800 I mean, the, the pre-diluvium, as it actually was, or the anti-diluvium, I should say.
02:58:05.240 And what we see here is really a very, very esoteric meaning of essentially the alchemical wedding, because you're fusing the man, the, the, the, the man part of you with the demonic Nephilim part of another entity.
02:58:23.960 And you combine it with a glue of technology.
02:58:26.920 And this is an absolute abhorrent perversion of how things should be.
02:58:32.360 It's a natural, it's sick, and it's, it's, it's, it's, it's not, no, no, no surprise that the masons push for Toy Story.
02:58:43.440 Right, and, you know, we can see how Woody, over the course of the film, finally acquiesces to Buzz's presence.
02:58:53.400 At first, he's very hostile to Buzz's, kind of unseating him as the leader of the toys.
02:58:59.840 But by the end of the film, they're both friends.
02:59:02.300 So you can kind of interpret this as Woody's sort of fall, because at the end of their flight, they both fall, right?
02:59:14.400 So we can kind of see this in the, similar to the book of Genesis.
02:59:19.960 Oh, I see.
02:59:20.900 Just like how in Greek mythology, you have, like, the character of Icarus.
02:59:24.400 He, he rose so high, but he flew so close to the sun that he fell into the sun, and he basically, yeah, committed suicide through hubris.
02:59:36.140 Right.
02:59:36.580 Right, and we can see this, this again, in this very, you know, demonic nature of the dinosaur, which we have in Toy Story.
02:59:50.160 And what I think this dinosaur represents is the, you know, reptilian aspect, which you, you know, you wrote about in your article here, that the reptilian are also what we know as the Nephilim,
03:00:02.080 which makes sense because the dinosaur, and that is the reptile, and Buzz Lightyear could actually communicate with each other why the dinosaur was actually not humanoid.
03:00:16.860 Right, I think, you know, some of the toys are more enchanted by Buzz than, than others, you know, like the dinosaur is very taken by, you know, Buzz's glamour.
03:00:32.080 So maybe there's kind of a commentary on the, you know, reptilians, and not in a literal sense, but in like a philosophical sense, people in our elite being taken by, or attracted to demonic entities, like Buzz Lightyear represents.
03:00:51.380 Yeah, yeah, I think we really, really have a point here that we need, I mean, we, kids are watching this.
03:00:59.860 I mean, the elite are programming our kids to become Luciferian demonic demon worshippers.
03:01:06.000 And I think we need to break the conditioning here.
03:01:08.260 We need to break the conditioning.
03:01:09.880 We are breaking the conditioning, but we need to break the condition even more.
03:01:14.300 Yeah, I agree.
03:01:20.580 You know, I think the way out is Orthodox theology.
03:01:26.760 I mean, yeah, exactly.
03:01:28.420 And I mean, what you, what you see with all these new age Masonic Satanist organizations that, you know, without any clue, watch these movies and just soak it all up with their, you know, their, their intellect.
03:01:44.300 And as we know, the brain is the manifestation of one of the, you know, spirits of God.
03:01:48.960 So we can really see that by soaking up Toy Story, by, you know, just, just viewing it, you are in fact letting this very Luciferian light shine upon your intellect through your brain.
03:02:03.300 And through your brain, the essence of your brain, which in its nature is metaphysical.
03:02:10.780 So what, what you have here is a deeper level of programming.
03:02:14.740 It's a metaphysical programming.
03:02:16.560 And it's, it's leading to hell.
03:02:18.300 Toy Story is leading children to hell.
03:02:20.220 Yeah, I, I agree.
03:02:25.860 One hundred percent.
03:02:26.560 So what should we do to solve this issue about, you know, this very demonic nature of Toy Story?
03:02:36.040 I probably just not, not show it to kids.
03:02:38.540 I think that's the easiest way.
03:02:41.700 I mean, you know, even Spielberg says, you know, Hollywood's dead.
03:02:45.140 So I think it's already kind of going on.
03:02:47.680 Yeah, yeah, but I mean, you have all these middle class, bourgeois, atheist parents that allow their children to watch, you know, this very, very dangerous movie.
03:02:59.180 And, I mean, what would you say to these parents?
03:03:06.300 I'd say they probably just don't know what they're looking at.
03:03:09.880 But, you know, not, not everybody's up on, you know, esoteric literature, you know, they're not, they're not aware of worldviews and paradigms.
03:03:21.940 You know, that's why I try and, you know, look at those presuppositions and deconstruct them on my website.
03:03:29.880 Yeah, you are, you are deconstructing this preposition, that's for sure.
03:03:34.300 And there's another book in Toy Story, which I think we should, should actually talk a bit about.
03:03:40.040 And it's the human character.
03:03:42.520 What does a human character represent in Toy Story, Jay?
03:03:51.580 Well, I'd, I'd kind of say that maybe the human character represents God in a way.
03:04:01.740 You know, because the human character introduces Buzz to the room, to Andy's room, kind of in the way that maybe God, you know, Lucifer was the archangel at one point.
03:04:22.440 So I'm not, I'm not quite sure what the subtext is there.
03:04:26.100 Also, what you're saying is, is that you could also see Buzz Lightyear's fall, as a fall from his human state of being perhaps an actual astronaut, to his fall into being a toy astronaut.
03:04:42.560 So you can, you can kind of say that all of Toy Story would then be the toy's desire to become man again.
03:04:49.320 But you're kind of stuck in this fallen state of actually being a sentient toy.
03:04:56.920 Yeah, there might be kind of a Gnostic, yeah, there might be kind of a Gnostic, you know, narrative there.
03:05:05.080 I don't, I don't support Gnosticism, obviously, but that could be it.
03:05:09.700 Yeah, so Toy Story is a Gnostic, Satanist, Mason, Masonic movie that's aimed at brainwashing our kids into World's Game of Satan.
03:05:21.640 Because, I mean, you see this as a thread throughout the movie.
03:05:24.500 The toys are very conscious of them being toys.
03:05:27.500 And the world around them is scary.
03:05:29.400 It's really, really terrifying.
03:05:31.400 You know, all these cars and all these, you know, human beings and all these different entities which they have not really experienced within the sensory confines of the room which the toys actually are inside.
03:05:46.440 And you can also see that when the human character comes into the room itself, the toys are very, very still.
03:05:55.840 They do not move.
03:05:56.880 They are afraid of the human character.
03:06:01.400 Right, there could be kind of a Gnostic thing where the toys in the room, like Gnostics believe, are damned to the state.
03:06:13.980 You know, they're trying to get back, get back at their creator or something.
03:06:19.000 I don't know.
03:06:20.640 But it just, you know, that's a lot of gobbledygook, you know, total baloney.
03:06:28.380 Yes, yes, yes.
03:06:29.400 And I really find this is really, really interesting because you have all these different kids movies and they are Satanists.
03:06:37.000 I mean, it's just Satanists.
03:06:37.860 I remember a kids movie we had here in Sweden back in the day and it was about the talking bear.
03:06:44.180 Now, what would you say if you met a talking bear in the forest?
03:06:50.900 Well, he would be possessed by a demon, of course.
03:06:53.120 I mean, bears can't talk.
03:06:54.120 We all know this.
03:06:54.980 So why are they showing this talking bear to children?
03:07:00.560 Why are they brainwashing our children into becoming Satanic, Gnostic bear worshippers?
03:07:06.680 It's about taking, you know, subverting traditional religions and bringing them into, you know, this like New World Order religion, introducing Far Eastern philosophy, this sort of thing.
03:07:24.700 So what they're essentially doing is that they are injecting the sublunar reality with the logoy of the bear, which they have essentially spiritually, genetically modified.
03:07:39.100 So that this log guy will eventually just grow into a horrible being, a demonic bear entity, which can talk and just lead people to ruin.
03:07:51.320 And we can see this also being represented in the talking goat, you know, Baphomet, you know, giving secrets to children, giving secrets to the sorcerers.
03:08:01.100 And Faust, you know, he summons Baphomet, well, Mephisto, and Mephisto gives him all these secrets.
03:08:08.740 And it's the same thing.
03:08:09.680 It's the same thing.
03:08:10.400 We have this very gnostic bear god mason mentality, which is just being spread to children.
03:08:17.240 It's very sad.
03:08:18.100 It's very sad.
03:08:19.160 And it's leading straight to hell.
03:08:20.720 It's leading straight to hell.
03:08:21.720 This just occurred to me, but another way you can read Toy Story is that, you know, the adults and the human characters in the film are unaware of what the toys are doing.
03:08:35.540 And, you know, they kind of, like, just see them, you know, the toys do their actions.
03:08:41.440 And then there's the humans are dumbfounded by when they find the toys in a strange place.
03:08:46.920 Because you could interpret that as people being unaware of spiritual warfare, you know, demonic, that sort of thing.
03:08:55.540 Yeah.
03:08:55.940 How do you think the directly malevolent demonic entities manifest itself in Toy Story?
03:09:03.600 I'm not talking about the semi-demonic entities of the dinosaur, you know, but slightly.
03:09:08.140 Because they're still at least poorly human beings.
03:09:10.880 But I'm not talking about the real 100% demonic aerial entities.
03:09:24.280 The dog and, you know, because that might be kind of a commentary or a wink about the Son of Sam killing.
03:09:34.380 If you've read Dave McGowan's book, Program to Kill, you'd know that serial murder is intimately tied into PSYOPs and predictive programming.
03:09:45.100 So that could be kind of a bit of a revelation of the method that, you know, the talking dog, allegedly, of the Son of Sam killings was just total baloney fabrication.
03:09:57.940 Yeah, and we also have the dog perhaps symbolizing Baphomet.
03:10:03.060 Well, not Baphomet, sorry, Belshazzar, the demon, the lord of the flies, which are said to manifest as a hound in the testament of King Solomon.
03:10:11.560 And we can see this really, really manifesting the deep masonic, demonic influence that the New World Order has put in place in Hollywood and are brainwashing our kids with by thinking that the kids have become god over their toys.
03:10:30.860 This is very disturbing.
03:10:36.100 Yeah, I agree.
03:10:39.320 That's a good way of, it's a good analysis.
03:10:41.560 Yeah, and there's one more thing I think we should just touch briefly on here, and that's the neighbor.
03:10:48.780 The satanic, really destructive, fiery neighbor, which in, I think, the second Toy Story movie, basically straps explosives to some toys and basically just blow them up.
03:11:03.160 Killing them, destroying them, tossing them into a sort of lake of fire.
03:11:08.040 Yeah, that's in the first film, which...
03:11:11.560 I mean, that's part of kind of the Joseph Campbell, you know, view on mythology, where in all these stories, the hero makes a trek through the underworld, which you could interpret Woody and Buzz Lightyear going to Sid's house as that journey.
03:11:29.800 Certainly, certainly, almost literally, because they're, at one point, they're under Sid's bed, if I remember correctly.
03:11:40.040 Oh, yeah, yeah, exactly.
03:11:42.040 Oh, yeah, yeah, exactly.
03:11:43.000 They are hiding from the great tyrant.
03:11:45.140 They are hiding from the entity, which they know will punish them, because they have drunk kids.
03:11:51.940 They are, you know, listening to Buzz Lightyear.
03:11:54.400 They are listening to Buzz Lightyear's, you know, pseudo-Masonic gospel about transcending the samsaric reality by becoming a part of the realm of the fixed stars, not through God's grace, but through the power of man, you know, technology.
03:12:09.960 And the astronauts, the astronauts, the rockets, penetrating the sub-Saturnian realm, and thereby achieving a sort of pseudo-Godhood, right?
03:12:22.820 Yeah, I mean, you could also interpret Andy as kind of the loving God, according to the Nestorian tradition of the New Testament, opposed to the, you know, angry Jehovah of the Old Testament.
03:12:45.380 I don't believe that, but, you know, that's another influence on the story.
03:12:50.360 Yeah, that's a really, really disturbing thing, because what they're implying here is that evil, or should I say, the root of evil is created, while, you know, evil is just a result of free choice.
03:13:04.080 And free choice is, you know, not evil in and of itself, because these people are choosing to be evil, and therefore evil exists because they are perverting themselves to this.
03:13:14.140 And we can see this really, really esoteric meaning of the nature of evil within the samsaric confines of sub-lunar existence in the actual car.
03:13:26.840 I mean, what is the car doing? It's a chariot of the soul. It's a chariot making Woody and Buzz Lightyear transcend the samsaric realm and becoming a very, very powerful entity.
03:13:40.360 I mean, they're traveling. They're traveling the stars. It's very, very scary.
03:13:44.720 And I think that the car here is representing the UFOs which the Nephilim are using to travel the solar system with.
03:13:56.180 Well, I mean, I don't believe in aliens, per se. You can listen to my talk. I did with the Collins brothers deconstructing that.
03:14:11.040 But certainly there's some symbolic meaning to that. Yeah, I would agree.
03:14:16.820 Yeah, I mean, there are certain scholars that believe that the antediluvian civilization was basically a civilization throughout the solar system.
03:14:28.080 And the reason why this really Nephilim civilization could not expand outside the solar system is that what you have in the planets orbiting the sun is the physical manifestation of the planetary heavens.
03:14:45.360 So the Nephilim, being fallen, can actually not transcend the sub-Saturnian realm.
03:14:55.080 And therefore the Nephilim were attempting to construct a sort of pre-Tower of Babel, which they failed doing.
03:15:05.400 And the result of this was the astroids.
03:15:13.260 Right.
03:15:15.360 So do you have any additional questions, Grieva Hans?
03:15:23.420 No, I think we've pretty much finished up our esoteric analysis of Toy Story.
03:15:31.200 I'd like to thank all listeners for listening, and we'll see you sometime soon.
03:15:37.360 Yeah, goodbye.
03:15:38.120 Goodbye.
03:15:38.240 Goodbye.
