Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey - Ep 908 ｜ Calling Out Cru’s LGBTQ Compromise

00:00:00.620 Dr. Rosaria Butterfield, queer theorist turned Christian, spoke at Liberty University last week and called out organizations and ministries that she believes are compromising on the LGBTQ issue.

00:00:15.500 She has some really, really sharp words that I want you to hear.

00:00:19.460 And also something that you may not know about LGBTQ is that it can be a way to try to get out of a ticket if you are pulled over by a police officer.

00:00:32.040 So we're going to see an example of that later in today's episode, which is brought to you by our friends at Good Ranchers.

00:00:38.260 Go to GoodRanchers.com. Use code Allie at checkout. That's GoodRanchers.com. Code Allie.

00:00:49.460 Hey, guys. Welcome to Relatable. Happy Wednesday. Halfway through the week. Hope you guys are having a great one.

00:00:57.860 All right. We've got so much to get through today. I'll try to be as concise as possible.

00:01:01.880 No promises, though. I can never promise that.

00:01:05.000 Okay. Before we get into what I just told you we're about to talk about, let me just tell y'all something that happened to me this week.

00:01:11.440 Totally underestimated how much people would take interest in this story that I shared on Instagram yesterday.

00:01:18.100 I don't know. Maybe this is just a story to make you feel better about yourself or for those of you who are still dealing with the effects of pregnancy brain, mom brain, newborn brain, all that stuff that I clearly am.

00:01:31.100 Maybe you will listen to this and be like, oh, I haven't done something that dumb yet. 0.93

00:01:35.360 And you'll feel better about yourself. That's what I'm here for. 0.97

00:01:38.240 Okay. So we are renovating some parts of our house. This has been a long time coming.

00:01:44.000 And just as an aside, I've never done anything like this before.

00:01:47.640 And I am very reticent to make decisions about like new floors or new countertops or anything like that, because it's a really big, it's a big thing.

00:01:58.840 It's a big thing to decide on. And obviously it's an investment that you're making.

00:02:03.240 And I'm so scared that I'm going to pick the wrong thing.

00:02:05.580 I know what I like, but actually going out there and picking something and not knowing exactly what it's going to look like.

00:02:11.240 The decision-making process has taken me months.

00:02:14.480 Very anxious about that whole thing.

00:02:17.500 It's not something that necessarily comes naturally to me.

00:02:20.360 So I'm soliciting the opinions of people who are more design-minded than I am.

00:02:24.180 So that's how I've approached every step of this process, including the rug buying process.

00:02:29.760 I am someone who has a million tabs open on my browser at all times,

00:02:35.640 because I'm afraid if I exit out of a browser before I've actually completed the task or bought the thing or read the article,

00:02:43.300 that I'm going to forget about it.

00:02:44.680 Now, very often it just like my interest expires on that thing.

00:02:48.900 And so I will end up exiting out of it.

00:02:52.320 And there was no point for me having, there was no point to me having it open for four months,

00:02:56.600 but I will keep them open for a long time.

00:02:58.460 And that includes the Ruggable website.

00:03:01.880 So Ruggable, I'm very, they're getting free advertising right now.

00:03:05.040 No idea if they align with our values, but they have a rug system. 0.99

00:03:11.320 They call it a rug system where you have like the rug itself, I guess, or the, I don't know, some kind of pad.

00:03:18.440 And then you have a cover that is washable.

00:03:21.000 Now, a washable rug is very, very interesting to me as a mom of toddlers,

00:03:26.720 because I hate spending so much money on rugs.

00:03:30.500 Rugs are very expensive, especially any kind of quality rug is very expensive.

00:03:35.160 And then they can be very difficult to clean depending on the kind of rug that you get.

00:03:39.540 And if you've got toddlers, it's just inevitable things are going to happen.

00:03:42.640 Even if you try to silo them off in the kitchen when they're eating, things just happen to rugs,

00:03:47.360 especially the particular rug that I was looking for, which was a runner in the entryway of my house.

00:03:52.760 So I went back and forth on these Ruggable rugs, deciding which color I wanted.

00:03:57.440 We got, we have new floors.

00:03:58.840 And so I wanted to pick a color that would go with the floor, but I just wasn't exactly sure what would look good.

00:04:05.380 So I was going back and forth between all these different rugs and I finally narrowed it down.

00:04:09.980 I finally narrowed it down to the rug that I was like, okay, it's a neutral tone, but it's got a little bit of gray in it.

00:04:16.580 I think that's going to look good.

00:04:17.960 It had like this rope pattern on it that I was like, okay, that's nice.

00:04:21.840 That's neutral.

00:04:22.460 That's subtle.

00:04:23.060 I think it'll probably look good, but I can always send it back if I, if I don't like it.

00:04:26.700 And so I still though, I had it clicked.

00:04:29.500 I had it in my cart and I was still waiting and I deliberated.

00:04:33.940 I did pros and cons.

00:04:35.300 I did compare contrast and I settled on, on this runner, on this particular runner.

00:04:42.220 And I'll put it up.

00:04:43.260 If you're watching on YouTube, looks fine, right?

00:04:46.580 So I ordered it, I ordered it and I was excited to try my Ruggable rug.

00:04:52.300 And then yesterday I was sitting on the couch and, um, I got an email and it was like,

00:04:58.920 your order has shipped from Ruggable.

00:05:00.440 That's exciting.

00:05:01.920 But something in my mind, I, you know, I just glanced at it, but something caught, something

00:05:07.980 was, was snagged in my mind.

00:05:09.620 And I thought that I saw the words toy story on that email.

00:05:15.580 Toy story.

00:05:16.680 Did I see?

00:05:17.520 No, I didn't see toy story.

00:05:19.060 No, that wouldn't make any sense.

00:05:20.760 Maybe it's just, no, no.

00:05:22.880 So I decided to look a few minutes later because I couldn't stop thinking about that.

00:05:27.580 I was like, did I see the words toy story on that email?

00:05:30.220 So I went back to the email and I saw that it said your toy story rug has shipped.

00:05:37.740 What?

00:05:38.440 That's got to be a mistake.

00:05:40.020 I'm picturing like, okay, Buzz Lightyear and Woody in primary colors on this rug.

00:05:47.140 Obviously I didn't order that.

00:05:48.500 It's just like, it's a type, but I don't know.

00:05:50.800 It's just a mistake, but that's not what I ordered.

00:05:52.840 But then I looked at it and I was like, well, this is a picture of the rug that I ordered.

00:05:57.920 This is like the beige gray rug with the rope design that I ordered.

00:06:02.500 But now I'm seeing that in the top left corner of this picture are the words toy story.

00:06:08.760 And then I see that the name of the rug is toy story rug.

00:06:13.580 And so then I zoom in on it and on the corner of the rug, on one corner of the rug, as you

00:06:20.820 see, if you're watching on YouTube is Woody.

00:06:22.840 And he is the one lassoing the design, Bree's laughing, the rope design.

00:06:30.680 And then on the other corner is Jesse also lassoing the rope design.

00:06:37.020 So after all this time, after all this deliberation and consideration and careful thought, compare,

00:06:43.960 contrast the whole process that I went through to finally bite the bullet on buying this rug,

00:06:50.980 it is a toy story rug.

00:06:52.360 It's a toy story rug.

00:06:53.740 It has Woody on it.

00:06:54.800 Literally, it has Woody and Jesse on the rug lassoing the rope designs that I thought were

00:07:00.600 so sophisticated and subtle.

00:07:03.060 So I've got that coming to my house.

00:07:06.100 That's going to be what people see when they come into the entryway.

00:07:09.200 Um, and so if you ever need any design help, you're looking, um, I don't know, maybe you're

00:07:15.740 a Disney adult and you are looking to design your house in a way that gives homage to your

00:07:21.100 favorite childhood movies, but you want it to still kind of look cute.

00:07:25.160 Maybe you should just hire me.

00:07:26.620 You should hire me.

00:07:27.520 I can help you do that.

00:07:28.560 But actually, I'm not the first person that this has happened to.

00:07:32.680 Um, some of you messaged me and this made me laugh out loud.

00:07:37.160 You said that you ordered a rug that you really thought was cute and you didn't realize it

00:07:40.420 was in the shape of baby Yoda's head.

00:07:41.940 Um, from Ruggable.

00:07:45.340 They have these very, like, sophisticated and posh designs.

00:07:51.860 I wish people could hear your laugh, Brie.

00:07:55.060 Um, and, but they're like Star Wars.

00:07:57.880 So do they do this on purpose so they can go back to their Disney partners and say, look

00:08:02.620 how many rugs that we sold.

00:08:04.840 And people didn't realize that, okay, you've actually, you just ordered baby Yoda's head.

00:08:10.240 Um, you thought that it was a cute bath mat and like a unique, a unique shape.

00:08:18.020 Oh my gosh.

00:08:19.640 So I've got a Disney rug.

00:08:21.440 I think I can send it back.

00:08:23.220 Um, but I'm not gonna, I don't think I'm gonna send it back because there's someone on our

00:08:26.580 team now who is interested in the rug for their house, for his child.

00:08:31.920 They are hoping it's just, it's a baby, but they're hoping to manifest his love for, uh,

00:08:39.640 for, uh, Toy Story by getting this rug.

00:08:42.420 So I might already have a, have a buyer.

00:08:44.660 But anyway, hope that makes you feel better. 0.94

00:08:47.860 And wives, if you have accidentally bought something that was really silly and your husband

00:08:52.520 is like, really, why did you do that?

00:08:55.400 Um, then you can tell them this story and you can say, see, it's, it's not just me.

00:09:00.300 Uh, one of you also messaged me and said that you bought a shirt that, uh, from Victoria's

00:09:06.880 Secret that you thought said son and you wore it to target.

00:09:10.240 And then it really said sin and your husband was like, why did you buy the shirt?

00:09:15.940 That's also funny.

00:09:17.180 That's funny.

00:09:17.600 I, I have a hard time understanding how that happened, but I cannot judge you at all.

00:09:22.060 So I guess it happens to the best of us.

00:09:24.220 There you go.

00:09:24.700 I'll let you know though, um, if I do end up buying another ruggable rug, uh, how it

00:09:30.420 is, because again, washable rug, very, very enticing idea for me.

00:09:46.620 Okay.

00:09:47.160 Let's talk about our girl Rosaria Butterfield.

00:09:50.080 Rosaria Butterfield has been on this show before.

00:09:52.600 She has an incredible testimony.

00:09:54.520 She was a queer theory professor, uh, a couple of decades ago.

00:09:58.980 She was living a lesbian lifestyle with her partner and then she became a Christian and

00:10:06.340 she shared exactly how that transformation happened when she was on our show a few months

00:10:10.820 ago.

00:10:11.500 And she realized after she became a Christian that this part of her life that of course

00:10:16.380 she held so dear, which was this lesbian partnership that she was in, that she was being called by

00:10:22.160 the Holy Spirit to let go of it.

00:10:23.940 She realized that there was no congruence between her homosexuality and the Christian life that

00:10:29.320 God was calling her to, that scripture was really clear.

00:10:31.780 This is something also that Christopher Yuan talks about, that they try really hard.

00:10:36.700 There's a part of their spiritual journey where they're trying really hard to reconcile those

00:10:41.140 two things that maybe the Bible is wrong or maybe the translation is wrong, or maybe that 0.95

00:10:46.340 myth that the concept of homosexuality was just added to the Bible in 1946 by these homophobic fascists. 0.95

00:10:52.780 Maybe that's real. 0.95

00:10:53.500 And maybe it's possible to live in this particular kind of sin and still deny yourself and follow

00:10:59.780 Christ.

00:11:00.680 But both realize through the power of the Holy Spirit that that's just not possible, that

00:11:05.420 all Christians are called to self-denial, that all Christians are called to repentance. 0.99

00:11:09.800 And a form of that repentance is repenting from sexual sin, which the Bible is abundantly clear

00:11:17.280 on that homosexuality is a sexual sin.

00:11:21.540 According to the God who made us, according to the God who is love, according to the God who

00:11:26.520 defines all things, who tells us what right is, what wrong is, what true is, what false is,

00:11:32.340 he says that the only form of holy sexuality is between one man and one woman or living a

00:11:40.660 chaste life of singleness.

00:11:43.580 So there just isn't any, there isn't any gray there.

00:11:47.580 And if we love the people around us, if we love our neighbors, if we love especially Christians

00:11:53.520 who are still confused about this issue or who are trying to live a Christian life without

00:11:58.580 repenting from this, we will tell them the truth in love.

00:12:02.340 Like if we believe that God is better than us and more loving than us and wiser than us,

00:12:06.740 then we will tell them the truth of God's word when it comes to sexuality.

00:12:12.060 Because remember, sexual sin is different than other sin, not that it is stronger than other

00:12:17.960 sin or that it can't be repented of.

00:12:19.700 But as scripture tells us, it is a sin against your own body, which is supposed to be as a 0.94

00:12:24.620 Christian a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit.

00:12:26.760 There's really no one who speaks more clearly on this issue than Dr. Butterfield.

00:12:30.800 I just love her and I'm very inspired by her faith.

00:12:34.260 When she came on a couple months ago, she was talking about an article that she wrote where

00:12:38.920 she repented of using quote unquote preferred pronouns or abiding by this idea of pronoun

00:12:44.940 politeness.

00:12:46.360 Pronoun politeness is a practice that is practiced by some Christians who say that this is a way

00:12:54.860 to build a bridge with non-believers who may identify as the opposite sex, who may call

00:12:59.660 themselves transgender.

00:13:01.180 That maybe if we call the man who thinks he's a woman, she, then they will be more open to

00:13:05.960 the gospel and we can build that trust and build a relationship with them and then they

00:13:09.400 will come to Christ and then we can worry about the truth later.

00:13:11.760 But as Rosaria said in her article of repentance and on this podcast, that you are not going

00:13:20.320 to, you don't attract people to the cross of Christ by sinning, by lying, by basically glorifying

00:13:31.460 or accommodating the sin that Christ died for.

00:13:35.180 One of those sins is trying to deny the body that God gave you by identifying as the opposite 1.00

00:13:41.840 sex.

00:13:42.540 So she just wrote a book called Five Lies of the Anti-Christian Age and we actually were

00:13:47.320 scheduled to record another podcast right before I went on maternity leave that was going to

00:13:51.040 come out while I was gone about this book, but she ended up being sick that day and we

00:13:55.240 just haven't had the chance to reschedule.

00:13:56.760 So I'll just tell you a little bit about it and that kind of leads into why we're talking

00:14:00.740 about her today.

00:14:01.500 So, um, uh, so she wrote this book Five Lies of the Anti-Christian Age and one of the lies 0.71

00:14:08.740 is homosexuality is normal.

00:14:10.500 Being a spiritual person is kinder than being a biblical person and feminism is good for 1.00

00:14:15.260 the world and the church.

00:14:16.820 Transgenderism is normal and modesty is an outdated burden that serves male dominance and holds 0.63

00:14:21.720 women back. 0.98

00:14:23.420 Gosh, this is amazing.

00:14:24.600 Like I would, if anyone has any questions on sexuality and like the holy sexuality, Christian

00:14:32.040 sexuality, probably the top two books that I would recommend to you.

00:14:35.380 And there are a lot of good ones, um, would be Love Thy Body by Nancy Piercy and, uh, this

00:14:41.500 book Five Lies of the Anti-Christian Age by Rosaria Butterfield.

00:14:45.780 Just two incredibly sharp and biblical women. 1.00

00:14:48.380 So she talked about this book and the lies that she presents in this book, um, at Liberty

00:14:54.280 University last Friday.

00:14:56.220 She spoke at their convocation.

00:14:57.660 This is a bi-weekly gathering of students for worship and nationally known speakers.

00:15:01.380 Most of you probably know that Liberty University is a very large Christian university, um, generally

00:15:06.620 Christian conservative university in Virginia.

00:15:09.540 So she spoke, um, at the, at the convocation and, um, she said a few things that she also

00:15:17.140 says in her book.

00:15:18.180 One of the things that she says in her book is going back to what we just said about this

00:15:23.000 idea that lies can actually bring someone to the foot of the cross.

00:15:25.940 She says, as if the Holy, as if the fruit of the Holy Spirit can grow from sin.

00:15:31.020 And that is so true.

00:15:32.720 The fruit of the Holy Spirit is not going to grow from sin and lying is a sin.

00:15:37.680 And so she just completely refutes this, even while humbly repenting herself of once, uh,

00:15:43.840 believing that.

00:15:45.180 Um, and then she goes on to, in this speech before Liberty University to quote unquote name

00:15:51.340 names.

00:15:52.060 She wants to name names of organizations that she believes are telling this lie, the lie

00:15:56.820 of pronoun politeness.

00:15:58.000 And also this lie that she points out that, um, homosexual desire is not in itself disordered.

00:16:06.220 This is something that we hear a lot that the feeling itself or the attraction itself is

00:16:10.920 not sin.

00:16:11.840 Just the action is sin, that it's okay to feel these things, to be attracted in this

00:16:16.520 way, as long as you don't act upon them.

00:16:18.440 But she points out what Romans one points out that that is simply not true.

00:16:23.600 When Romans one lists homosexuality as a disordered and sinful behavior, that, uh, prohibition is

00:16:32.500 actually preceded by the description of homosexual desires is dishonorable.

00:16:37.700 So this is Romans one 26 for this reason, God gave them up to dishonorable passions.

00:16:44.020 So the passion itself is dishonorable for their women exchanged natural relations for those 1.00

00:16:49.340 that are contrary to nature.

00:16:50.560 And the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for

00:16:55.780 one another men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty

00:17:01.760 for their error goes on to say, and since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave

00:17:07.780 them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.

00:17:12.300 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness. 0.95

00:17:16.280 And so homosexuality and the passion that is behind homosexuality, um, is dishonorable according 0.97

00:17:23.660 to God. 0.57

00:17:24.140 And this is why I kind of said this as an aside a couple of minutes ago, this idea that

00:17:28.200 homosexuality and that word was just added into the Bible in 1946.

00:17:32.260 And therefore we can just ignore it.

00:17:34.740 That is not true.

00:17:36.140 The word homosexuality, of course, is a relatively new word.

00:17:40.760 The reason why it was added into translations in the mid 20th century is because there wasn't

00:17:46.620 a word like that.

00:17:47.840 Homosexuality was fairly new. 0.99

00:17:49.300 And so they started using it in new translations, but the concept was always forbidden.

00:17:53.660 The concept was always explained.

00:17:56.120 Romans 1 wasn't just added into the Bible.

00:17:58.900 That verse that I just read, that's been in the Bible.

00:18:01.640 That's been in the biblical canon.

00:18:03.220 That wasn't added to the Bible in 1946.

00:18:06.100 Leviticus wasn't added to the Bible in 1946.

00:18:08.640 Genesis 1 wasn't added to the Bible in 1946.

00:18:11.120 Ephesians 5 wasn't added to the Bible.

00:18:13.760 Revelation 22 wasn't added to the Bible.

00:18:16.280 1 Corinthians 6 wasn't added to the Bible.

00:18:18.220 These have all been parts of the biblical canon that clearly show that holy sexuality according

00:18:22.760 to God, that holy marriage according to God is between one man and one woman.

00:18:26.980 So it's a total non sequitur.

00:18:29.180 It's complete propaganda.

00:18:30.720 That idea that in 1946, homophobes completely changed the biblical canon.

00:18:35.020 That's just not true.

00:18:36.860 But we do see that the desire itself is dishonorable according to God.

00:18:43.820 Now, that does not mean that a Christian who struggles with that, but is walking in repentance

00:18:49.240 and is actively surrendering all sinful desires to the Lord, that they can't actually be a Christian.

00:18:56.160 Of course, we are all being sanctified by sinful desires of our sinful desires.

00:19:00.900 You might desire to lie.

00:19:02.440 You might desire to steal.

00:19:03.720 You might desire to be drunk.

00:19:06.680 All of those things are sinful desires.

00:19:09.260 They are dishonorable passions that we are actively, through the power of the Holy Spirit

00:19:14.240 and the grace of God, meant to resist and repent of.

00:19:18.000 And the hope is of the Christian life that those desires go away and wane entirely. 0.95

00:19:24.780 And any sexually sinful desire, of course, we should also have the hope that that is,

00:19:31.800 that we are completely sanctified of that as well.

00:19:34.880 So here is Rosaria Butterfield naming names in her speech saying that these organizations

00:19:41.520 attribute to the lie of, or contribute to the lie of pronoun politeness and this idea that

00:19:49.860 sexually sinful desires are not actually sinful.

00:19:54.780 I have heard all of these lies, and just in the last year, from Christian ministries. 0.98

00:20:02.480 And this is where I name names, and I'm an English professor, so I call this Citing My Sources.

00:20:09.220 Revoice.

00:20:10.960 Preston Sprinkle's Exiles in Babylon Conference, sponsored by his heretical Center for Faith, 0.95

00:20:17.760 Sexuality, and Gender, and CRU.

00:20:20.900 And I have believed these lies, too, and not only as a Christian, and I have repented publicly

00:20:27.060 as a Christian in my book to you in articles, and these people can do the same.

00:20:34.400 We don't throw people away, but without repentance, we don't trust them.

00:20:40.300 We trust repentant saints, not just people with flashy ministries.

00:20:46.860 Okay, so there's a few things on that.

00:21:02.380 And I think the reason why she's saying what she's saying, and the reason why she called

00:21:06.120 out those organizations, we're going to kind of get into some of those reasons.

00:21:09.300 I believe she's using those examples.

00:21:13.160 But I do think that Preston Sprinkle would take issue with what Rosaria said here.

00:21:20.520 In fact, I know for a fact that he would take issue with Rosaria lumping him in this category.

00:21:25.560 I am more than happy to have Preston Sprinkle on.

00:21:28.260 I think he says a lot of good things.

00:21:29.660 I think we probably agree on the vast majority of things that he says, even about sexuality.

00:21:34.560 I'd be happy to have him on the podcast to talk about his recent book and to talk about

00:21:40.500 this in particular.

00:21:41.200 Actually, more than that, I would love Rosaria and Preston to have a conversation.

00:21:47.000 But the truth is, is that Preston Sprinkle has talked about the importance of pronoun

00:21:50.620 politeness, or at least that it's according to your conscience, and that maybe it's a case

00:21:56.280 by case basis, but that you can use someone's pronouns that don't correspond with their biological

00:22:01.380 sex.

00:22:01.880 Because Rosaria and I agree, and as Rosaria says, she used to not believe this.

00:22:07.040 I'm so glad that she does, that it's a lie.

00:22:09.580 It's always a lie.

00:22:10.580 It's always a lie to call a man she, and you are not bringing someone to the foot of the

00:22:14.260 cross by sinning and by affirming something that is killing them, that is a delusion, that

00:22:18.980 is not just hurting their own body, but is hurting society as a whole, that feeds into

00:22:22.880 this delusion, this lie that gender is malleable, that you can switch sexes.

00:22:30.560 That's what's cutting off the breasts of healthy young women, that is what is allowing men into 1.00

00:22:35.480 female prisons and rape shelters. 1.00

00:22:37.640 And so I don't want to acquiesce on that at all.

00:22:41.120 I don't want to contribute to that mass delusion at all that is deadly and damaging to the bodies

00:22:47.300 and minds and souls and hearts of young people, of children.

00:22:50.820 So I just won't have any part of it.

00:22:53.080 I don't see it as kind at all, even if it is polite.

00:22:57.920 But I would be interested, of course, to hearing what Preston has to say about that, so maybe

00:23:02.180 we can talk on this podcast.

00:23:04.760 Now, Revoice is an organization that claims to be for biblical sexuality.

00:23:09.760 They want to kind of bring people who identify as LGBTQ Christians into the fold while calling

00:23:15.640 them to celibacy.

00:23:16.740 But there are a lot of contradictory things within Revoice.

00:23:21.480 They say that they stand for biblical sexuality, but when it comes to identity, I think that

00:23:27.820 they are off.

00:23:28.960 I think it's very similar to what we said about Andy Stanley last week, that they see LGBTQ

00:23:34.840 as who you are, not just a sinful desire that you have or confusion that you have or a part

00:23:40.960 of your life and heart that needs to be sanctified by the Holy Spirit, but who you are, this immutable

00:23:47.040 characteristic, a core of your identity.

00:23:49.640 And you can see that by some of the posts that they post.

00:23:52.500 For example, on their Instagram page, they have honoring LGBTQ plus history.

00:23:58.300 Now, tell me if you think that this sounds like a Christian organization that is promoting

00:24:03.200 biblical sexuality and believes the Bible's definition of sexuality and believes that sin

00:24:13.280 or that homosexuality and transgenderism is wrong and sinful and therefore deadly. 0.63

00:24:18.580 Tell me if you think that that would describe an organization that says this, which is Revoice.

00:24:22.940 In honor of the LGBTQ plus history month, we want to take a moment to pay tribute to the

00:24:27.160 incredible individuals who paved the way for our rights and privileges.

00:24:30.040 Their courage and resilience will never be forgotten as we ponder the stories of those

00:24:33.540 who have gone before us.

00:24:34.340 Let's also look ahead with hope.

00:24:35.920 We anticipate the future where the church looks more and more like Jesus in the way that we

00:24:39.440 love one another.

00:24:40.220 Let us offer a prayer for progress, understanding, and unity.

00:24:45.520 They go on to say LGBTQ plus history tells us where we have come from, informs us where we

00:24:50.640 are, and sets the stage for where we are going.

00:24:54.540 LGBTQ plus accomplishments are often lived on the shoulders of our predecessors.

00:24:58.540 Many of us benefit today from rights and privileges fought for by those who come before us.

00:25:04.340 Our struggles and challenges do not occur in a vacuum.

00:25:06.680 They're informed by the history of pain, turmoil, and rejection between the church and the LGBTQ

00:25:10.980 community.

00:25:12.880 No.

00:25:13.580 And so it goes on to say that that to me doesn't sound like an organization that believes that

00:25:19.520 LGBTQ is a sin and is disordered and should be repented of. 1.00

00:25:24.380 It sounds like these people believe that this is a core identity and we don't have time to 0.79

00:25:28.840 go into every facet of revoice, but I promise you if you research them yourself, which I

00:25:33.580 welcome you to do, then you will find the same thing.

00:25:37.000 My desire is not to take anything out of context or to condemn an organization that shouldn't

00:25:41.880 be condemned.

00:25:42.560 I am for any organization that is promoting healthy and biblical sexuality and repentance

00:25:47.640 from sin and of all people, but that doesn't seem to be really what this organization is

00:25:54.000 in praxis.

00:25:56.380 And then just quickly, I'll look at CRU.

00:25:59.220 Why did she include CRU?

00:26:00.740 I think a lot of people were probably surprised by that.

00:26:03.660 CRU is Campus Crusade for Christ.

00:26:05.640 It's an interdenominational missions organization and it's really big.

00:26:09.940 So there are probably people within CRU that align with all different kinds of political

00:26:17.780 leanings, especially when it comes to these culture war issues, which is really a biblical

00:26:22.960 issue like LGBTQ.

00:26:26.060 So here's something that they say on their website that I found troubling.

00:26:33.120 So this is a resource or just guidance that they have on their website about evangelism.

00:26:38.280 It says, in evangelism, should I use someone's chosen or preferred name and pronouns?

00:26:43.400 So this is what CRU says on their website.

00:26:46.100 Deciding to use someone's preferred name and pronouns is an issue of conscience.

00:26:50.480 We must prayerfully decide before the Lord how we will act in each of these.

00:26:54.380 Oh, dear Lord, should I lie to this person and call this man a she so I can feed into this 1.00

00:27:02.740 delusion that is chopping off the healthy breasts of young women that you purposely and perfectly 0.94

00:27:08.560 made female?

00:27:10.200 Oh, Lord, should I lie to this person in the hopes that confirming and affirming and then

00:27:14.600 celebrating their sin is somehow going to bring them to the foot of the cross?

00:27:18.820 That somehow I can disagree with you and make you sound more appealing to the world?

00:27:24.160 Please give me discernment.

00:27:25.580 Thank you.

00:27:26.040 I mean, that is like asking God to please bless this Cain's to the nourishment of our bodies. 0.77

00:27:34.960 Like, OK, that's probably it probably just doesn't work like that.

00:27:39.620 So I take issue with that language, period.

00:27:42.540 So CRU staff and volunteers are expected to use pronouns themselves.

00:27:46.980 It says that align with their biological sex, using a person's preferred name and pronouns

00:27:52.160 can be a profound way, they say.

00:27:54.520 Listen to this.

00:27:55.240 This is what Campus Crusade for Christ says.

00:27:57.400 Using a person's preferred name and pronouns can be a profound way to demonstrate that you

00:28:01.500 recognize them and desire to show them respect.

00:28:06.520 This is one helpful way to begin to build trust.

00:28:09.400 Tell me.

00:28:09.840 I wish that they could explain.

00:28:11.380 This is what I want to know.

00:28:12.400 And people are never made to do this.

00:28:14.360 Why is it respectful?

00:28:15.240 Why is it respectful?

00:28:17.200 Why is it disrespectful to call a man he?

00:28:19.820 Why is it disrespectful to call a woman she?

00:28:22.460 Why is it disrespectful to say, look, God made you male or female in his image?

00:28:29.360 That's what Genesis 127 says, that they weren't just made genderless in his image.

00:28:33.860 They were made male and female in his image.

00:28:36.340 So part of being made in God's image is the gender that God assigned you at conception.

00:28:40.840 So I am not just affirming the person's gender by calling them the pronoun that corresponds

00:28:46.420 with who they biologically are.

00:28:48.140 I am affirming the Imago Dei in them when I am calling them by the pronoun that corresponds

00:28:53.980 with the sex that God purposely and providentially gave them, assigned to them before time began. 0.92

00:29:00.900 So basically what crew is saying is what so many so-called Christian organizations are saying

00:29:07.240 here is that we can actually win people over by disagreeing with God, that we'll kind of hide

00:29:14.360 what God's word says.

00:29:15.320 We'll take him off the hook.

00:29:16.700 That mean guy over there who so rudely and impolitely and disrespectfully said that he made 0.94

00:29:23.360 us male and female.

00:29:25.320 We'll just kind of push that off to the side.

00:29:27.180 We'll put that on the shelf for now and we'll hope that by lying to someone, by deluding

00:29:32.000 someone about something so important, their identity, that maybe we can gain enough rapport

00:29:38.940 with them and win them to the cross of Christ.

00:29:42.100 Remember when we had Laura Perry Small on and she tried to transition so-called into a man 0.86

00:29:48.380 and the thing that brought her back was the truth telling of her parents, her parents and

00:29:54.160 their Christian friends who refused to ever call her a man, who refused to ever say he.

00:30:00.400 Yeah, she was peeved.

00:30:01.460 She was annoyed.

00:30:02.240 There was temporary distance in their relationship because they wouldn't just unconditionally

00:30:05.700 affirm her.

00:30:06.780 But they continued to love her.

00:30:08.460 They continued to reach out to her.

00:30:09.680 They continued to call her daughter.

00:30:11.880 And you know what eventually brought her back?

00:30:13.480 It was God's word.

00:30:15.140 She was writing.

00:30:16.900 She was helping her mom write a Bible study.

00:30:20.640 Her mom asked her to help with this.

00:30:22.000 And it was through writing God's word and reading God's word and seeing the truth and

00:30:26.920 then weighing that against her parents who were telling her the truth that actually brought

00:30:32.640 her to a place of repentance.

00:30:34.820 You will not bring someone to a place of repentance by lying.

00:30:39.320 I promise you that.

00:30:40.300 It's not polite.

00:30:41.100 It's hateful.

00:30:42.120 It's hateful.

00:30:43.500 And people think that being polite according to worldly standards is godlier than being godly.

00:30:48.500 It's godlier than being biblical. 0.59

00:30:51.020 That's crazy now.

00:30:52.400 That's crazy now, crew.

00:30:54.600 So, campus crusade for Christ.

00:30:57.300 That's a weak crusade, man.

00:30:58.980 That's a weak crusade where you're basically acquiescing on one of the biggest and most

00:31:03.380 controversial issues to the enemy.

00:31:09.400 You're acquiescing to the enemy through that.

00:31:11.920 So, Rosario has something to say about all of this.

00:31:14.460 This kind of faux compassion that we think is going to lead people to the Lord by just

00:31:18.340 being a little bit worldlier.

00:31:19.980 Here's what she has to say.

00:31:21.480 Christian compassion for the sinners like the sinner I used to be means walking with 1.00

00:31:26.780 them through the gritty battle of hating and fighting sin through the power of Christ

00:31:31.980 and living for righteousness through his Holy Spirit.

00:31:36.340 Christian compassion does not coddle, humanize, or domesticate sin.

00:31:41.360 Christian compassion does not believe that man is more merciful than God.

00:31:47.900 Christians do not encourage sinners to come out as gay or trans in order to be quote unquote

00:31:54.320 missional. 0.87

00:31:55.560 This is a mission that leads everybody to hell.

00:31:58.320 And if you are a Christian whose indwelling sin is marked by sexual or gender confusion, I

00:32:05.480 really do get it.

00:32:06.560 I've made that case.

00:32:08.200 But be warned, there is a particular way that empathy with people who sin in the same way

00:32:14.680 that you do works against your sanctification and their salvation.

00:32:21.440 Yep, absolutely.

00:32:22.380 I think the exploitation of empathy has caused a lot of Christians to compromise, a lot of

00:32:28.920 Christians to believe just as she said that we are more merciful than God, that we're better

00:32:34.160 and more loving and wiser than him.

00:32:36.380 I think that's what I took away from Andy Stanley's sermon last week.

00:32:39.160 You can go back and listen to my commentary on that, that he actually believes that he knows

00:32:43.420 a little bit better than the God of the universe on what can actually attract people to the cross

00:32:47.780 of Christ.

00:32:48.180 Here's the good news, and we'll close out this segment, but here's the great news, and

00:32:52.720 this is the good news, okay?

00:32:54.600 The good news isn't that people understand you or people can empathize with you or that

00:32:58.620 this is the one sin that you can't really be sanctified of, and it's fine.

00:33:03.480 Somehow you can find congruence between your sin and the Christian life. 0.99

00:33:07.960 Here's the good news.

00:33:09.640 And let me actually cite it.

00:33:12.200 I have a habit of speaking scripture, of saying scripture without actually saying the

00:33:19.800 reference.

00:33:20.320 You'll remember that Andy Stanley, something that he said last week, and something that

00:33:23.820 I think that Rosaria is pointing out here, that this is a different kind of temptation

00:33:30.860 because it's not just how you feel.

00:33:32.740 It's not just what you do.

00:33:33.980 It is who you are.

00:33:35.300 This is a different kind of temptation.

00:33:36.720 As Andy Stanley said, he said it is in a category unto itself, LGBTQ, and we talked about some

00:33:45.040 scriptures that buck against that, like 1 Corinthians 6, that you were engaged in sexual sin, you

00:33:52.440 were greedy, you were thieves, you were all kinds of sinners, such were some of you, but

00:33:58.580 you were washed and sanctified by Jesus Christ.

00:34:00.680 That is true for all of us.

00:34:01.800 But here is good news in 1 Corinthians 10, 13.

00:34:04.800 This is the truth that completely contradicts what Andy Stanley, a very influential Christian

00:34:09.300 teacher, said in his sermon.

00:34:12.000 1 Corinthians 10, 13, no temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man.

00:34:18.220 No temptation.

00:34:19.520 You're not special.

00:34:20.780 Your temptation is not special.

00:34:22.280 Your struggle is not special.

00:34:24.220 Your feelings, your confusion about your identity and who you are is not special.

00:34:29.380 It's not different.

00:34:30.140 And that's not mean.

00:34:32.520 That should be really good news.

00:34:33.940 You're not alone.

00:34:35.780 No temptation has overtaken you.

00:34:37.320 That is not common to man.

00:34:39.680 God is faithful and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability.

00:34:46.140 But with the temptation, he will also provide the way of escape that you may be able to endure

00:34:53.480 something else that Andy Stanley said in the sermon that we commented on last week is that

00:35:00.220 some men who call themselves homosexual, homosexual, they may live a chaste life for years or for all

00:35:08.560 their lives.

00:35:08.960 But for many, that's not sustainable, he said.

00:35:12.340 So they choose to engage in what he called a gay marriage.

00:35:15.380 That completely contradicts what God's word says, that he is faithful.

00:35:20.460 God is faithful to you and that he will provide the way of escape for you that you may be able

00:35:27.440 to endure whatever temptation you face.

00:35:30.480 And there is no temptation that has overtaken you that is not common to man.

00:35:35.440 And God is faithful.

00:35:37.820 Isn't that good news?

00:35:42.140 Scripture also says that, and I'm going to make sure that I have this reference right as well.

00:35:50.740 Hebrews 4, 15.

00:35:52.300 For we do not have a high priest, Jesus, who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses,

00:35:57.360 but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are yet without sin.

00:36:05.260 Isn't that good news that you're not special?

00:36:06.980 Your sin, your feelings of sexual confusion aren't special.

00:36:10.860 They're not special.

00:36:13.240 You can resist that sin.

00:36:15.320 You are called to deny that sin.

00:36:17.600 You can deny that sin.

00:36:19.300 You can resist that sin by the power of the Holy Spirit.

00:36:22.880 The Spirit is really strong.

00:36:24.900 Jesus died for that sin.

00:36:28.140 If Jesus died for that sin, then his Holy Spirit can give you the power to resist that sin.

00:36:33.640 And again, your feelings are not who you are.

00:36:36.120 That's not your identity.

00:36:39.160 If you have been bought with a price, if you are a Christian, you are a new creation. 1.00

00:36:44.240 The old has gone.

00:36:45.180 The new has come.

00:36:46.120 That is who you are now.

00:36:47.780 You are a child of God now.

00:36:49.680 And you have the strength.

00:36:51.280 You have the ability to live a life of holiness.

00:36:53.980 We will always be tempted.

00:36:55.940 We will always struggle.

00:36:57.200 We will always be battling in our mind, in our hearts against the temptations and against

00:37:01.680 the struggles and the sinful desires that all of us have.

00:37:04.940 And in glory, we will no longer have those temptations anymore.

00:37:08.160 Yes and amen.

00:37:09.400 But you do have the power to resist those things and to battle against those things.

00:37:14.700 Praise, praise, praise, praise God.

00:37:16.720 Okay, there were a ton of other things I wanted to talk about today.

00:37:32.300 Maybe I'll be able to talk about it tomorrow.

00:37:33.920 I wanted to talk about that story of Mr. Beast, the YouTuber that we've talked about before.

00:37:38.580 He built 100 wells in Africa and people are mad about it.

00:37:41.560 So I want to talk about that.

00:37:42.440 I also want to make sure that we talk about a couple stories that I've seen floating around

00:37:45.920 on Twitter that are never, ever, ever going to get the mainstream attention that they should

00:37:49.820 get.

00:37:50.920 And they are young men dying.

00:37:54.940 Well, one is a young man. 0.59

00:37:56.060 One is an older man being murdered by a gang of thugs.

00:38:02.200 We don't know the motivation behind it, but I do know that it's not going to get the

00:38:06.840 cries of lament and repentance that would happen if the races were reversed.

00:38:12.440 Certainly not by evangelicals who claim to want to seek justice and love mercy.

00:38:17.280 They seem to only shine a light on certain kinds of stories that push a certain kind

00:38:21.720 of narrative.

00:38:22.320 And that really bothers me because as Christians, we are called to impartiality, especially when

00:38:26.720 it comes to justice.

00:38:27.680 So anyway, I want to talk about those stories.

00:38:29.460 I don't have time for it today.

00:38:30.600 I'll talk about those stories tomorrow.

00:38:32.240 I want to end on maybe a little bit of a lighter note.

00:38:35.160 It's actually ridiculous, but it's also really sad, this whole story.

00:38:38.760 But it kind of goes into what Rosaria was talking about.

00:38:41.920 Like this person that we are about to talk about, she needs to be told the truth of the

00:38:45.340 gospel and led to repentance because she is absolutely burdened by the lies that she

00:38:49.780 believes.

00:38:50.340 So this video was first posted by the Daily Caller on November 2nd.

00:38:54.500 So a woman is pulled over, maybe you saw it on Twitter, for going in the wrong direction 0.99

00:38:58.320 on a road.

00:38:59.220 When the officer pulls her over, he smells alcohol.

00:39:01.380 He puts her through the standard sobriety test.

00:39:05.280 She repeatedly uses her indigenous, non-binary, and mentally ill status to push back against 0.90

00:39:12.600 the cop who is patient throughout the encounter.

00:39:15.480 And we're going to leave.

00:39:16.440 I think I'm going to stop and start the clip or say like, okay, let's pause or whatever

00:39:21.720 so that Bree and I can comment on it.

00:39:23.500 Also, I want our mics up while we're playing this and our faces up so you can see our reaction.

00:39:29.360 And also, we'll try to, we might have some commentary along, along the way.

00:39:34.100 All right.

00:39:34.920 Let's go ahead and check out our girl who is having, I guess, what she considered a fun

00:39:40.700 night.

00:39:41.560 As an indigenous person.

00:39:48.040 Right back here, please.

00:39:49.460 As an indigenous person.

00:39:50.920 Miss Perry? 0.56

00:39:52.500 I'm non-binary, so.

00:39:54.360 Okay.

00:39:55.260 What do you go by?

00:39:56.720 Kai.

00:39:57.460 How can I refer to you tonight?

00:39:58.700 Kai?

00:39:59.200 Okay.

00:39:59.560 Hi.

00:39:59.860 Hey, I'm a small alcohol.

00:40:01.440 I know.

00:40:01.880 How much have you consumed tonight?

00:40:03.440 Like, probably three drinks.

00:40:04.740 I need to run you through some tests right now.

00:40:06.320 Stand facing me, please.

00:40:07.580 But I just want you to know that I also have very bad social anxiety.

00:40:11.120 You and me both. 0.98

00:40:12.060 As you know, I'm an indigenous person and there's a bunch of s*** going around. 1.00

00:40:16.700 What? 0.96

00:40:17.160 I'm sorry.

00:40:17.920 What is it?

00:40:18.720 It's just for me to be on my toes.

00:40:21.380 I get you.

00:40:22.100 She's got me on her toes.

00:40:23.120 She's got me on her toes.

00:40:25.360 I'm non-binary.

00:40:26.640 I'm non-binary.

00:40:27.340 Yeah, I'll try my hardest.

00:40:28.800 I'll refer to you as Kai, right?

00:40:30.320 Yeah.

00:40:30.640 He keeps on her, ma'am.

00:40:31.620 I need to know if you have any injuries or anything that would prevent you from doing

00:40:34.380 a standard walk or a turn tonight.

00:40:36.320 Mental health.

00:40:38.080 Any physical injuries?

00:40:40.840 Mental, yeah.

00:40:42.180 Mental.

00:40:42.500 Mental, mental, mental, physical.

00:40:43.620 Place it in front of your left in a heel-to-toe touching manner with your arms by your side.

00:40:47.480 Just like this, ma'am.

00:40:49.460 Can you not call me man, please?

00:40:51.520 I'm trying my hardest.

00:40:53.220 He's trying not to laugh.

00:40:54.620 It means a lot to me.

00:40:55.840 I'm trying my hardest.

00:40:56.800 I don't feel like a man, so.

00:40:58.620 Okay.

00:40:59.080 It's kind of triggering.

00:41:00.380 Right foot in front of your left.

00:41:01.700 Yeah.

00:41:02.000 Nope, go back.

00:41:03.040 I'm sorry, but the whole man thing, just like.

00:41:06.140 Yeah.

00:41:06.720 I apologize.

00:41:07.660 Let's see if we can move forward from it.

00:41:09.280 You have zero questions?

00:41:10.160 No, but I just want to tell you that I suffer from really bad anxiety, especially with generational 0.87

00:41:20.340 trauma and PTSD around white people and clots. 0.85

00:41:26.140 I'm going to speak with you right over here, okay? 0.97

00:41:27.840 No.

00:41:28.500 Yes, ma'am.

00:41:29.420 Go ahead and place your hands behind your back.

00:41:31.160 Don't, dude.

00:41:31.980 Don't make it hard.

00:41:32.760 Please.

00:41:33.360 Don't make it hard.

00:41:34.200 No, you're.

00:41:35.440 You're going to get a resist.

00:41:36.480 Dude, I.

00:41:38.540 You're going to get a resist.

00:41:39.480 Hey, don't.

00:41:40.720 Don't resist.

00:41:41.760 Don't.

00:41:42.040 She has nothing to say.

00:41:43.900 Don't resist.

00:41:45.100 Don't.

00:41:45.620 You're being a white man and. 0.96

00:41:47.480 Come here. 0.85

00:41:47.860 Don't. 1.00

00:41:48.440 I followed all of your shit. 1.00

00:41:50.680 Like. 1.00

00:41:51.760 I'm an indigenous person. 1.00

00:41:53.820 Like, fuck you guys. 1.00

00:41:56.380 Okay. 1.00

00:41:57.600 So.

00:41:58.080 You're being a white man. 0.52

00:41:59.080 You're being a. 0.98

00:41:59.940 You're being a white man. 0.77

00:42:01.280 Yeah. 0.96

00:42:01.560 So she's just totally sloshed.

00:42:03.880 She's wasted. 0.99

00:42:05.340 And you can tell by how she's talking. 0.51

00:42:08.100 And obviously that's why she's getting arrested. 0.99

00:42:10.100 And we couldn't play the whole thing.

00:42:11.340 It's long.

00:42:11.920 In the very beginning, he pulls her over.

00:42:13.500 And he's like.

00:42:14.840 He's like.

00:42:15.880 Did you know?

00:42:16.740 He's so nice.

00:42:17.520 He's so polite.

00:42:18.440 He could not be nicer.

00:42:19.720 He's like.

00:42:20.300 Did you know you're going the wrong direction on the road?

00:42:24.280 And she's like.

00:42:25.540 I just got changed around.

00:42:29.600 For a non-binary person.

00:42:31.620 She is amazingly feminine.

00:42:33.800 Yeah.

00:42:34.500 Yeah.

00:42:34.980 True.

00:42:35.820 Little baby voice comes out.

00:42:37.580 Such little baby voice.

00:42:39.620 Yeah.

00:42:39.780 I think she couldn't decide whether she wanted to be a damsel in distress. 1.00

00:42:42.680 Or a non-binary antifa warrior.

00:42:46.660 Yeah.

00:42:47.580 Yeah.

00:42:47.980 She's not good at either.

00:42:49.100 And the spirit of her indigenous ancestors fighting against the white man.

00:42:54.300 And ancestral trauma or generational trauma.

00:42:57.440 That's what she said.

00:42:58.200 I'm definitely going to use that.

00:42:59.940 I'm going to use that next time I am pulled over or something.

00:43:03.540 Yeah.

00:43:04.640 Generational trauma.

00:43:05.820 Could you give me a minute?

00:43:06.580 I'm traumatized generationally.

00:43:08.380 Yeah.

00:43:08.660 My great grandmother.

00:43:11.400 She also got pulled over by the cops. 0.89

00:43:17.460 And.

00:43:17.560 It's just stuck with us.

00:43:18.420 I am still dealing with that trauma 75 years later.

00:43:23.680 So if you could just excuse me.

00:43:26.060 Like so her thought was that he should just definitely let me keep driving.

00:43:30.460 Yeah.

00:43:31.080 The wrong way.

00:43:32.020 The wrong way.

00:43:32.920 Yeah.

00:43:33.260 And that I will be fine.

00:43:34.800 I hope that you don't think you like got disciplined.

00:43:36.880 Oh I hope not.

00:43:38.680 For misgendered.

00:43:39.460 He genuinely could not have been nicer.

00:43:41.520 I don't think I've ever seen a video of a cop that nice to someone.

00:43:45.480 Who deserves so much to be arrested.

00:43:48.220 I know.

00:43:48.740 You know.

00:43:49.560 Honestly I think that she deserves to be arrested just for the things that she said. 0.99

00:43:54.640 Yeah.

00:43:55.080 Just straight to jail.

00:43:55.700 That violates.

00:43:56.360 That honestly I'm not sure that she should get first amendment rights.

00:43:59.700 You don't get first amendment rights for saying things like generational trauma.

00:44:03.720 I'm kidding.

00:44:04.720 I'm kidding guys.

00:44:05.860 I'm kidding.

00:44:06.880 Calm down.

00:44:08.180 Oh my gosh.

00:44:09.360 So funny.

00:44:10.020 But also sad.

00:44:11.540 Very sad.

00:44:12.720 I believe. 0.99

00:44:13.220 Now the thing I believe is that she has mental health issues. 0.98

00:44:17.320 Yes. 0.99

00:44:18.380 I believe that.

00:44:19.780 Oh 100%.

00:44:21.220 100% for sure.

00:44:22.380 And apparently she has manifested in her mind physical problems as well.

00:44:28.160 Yeah.

00:44:28.520 So.

00:44:28.660 He was like do you have any physical reason that you can't walk this line or can't like

00:44:32.440 listen to me.

00:44:33.120 Mental.

00:44:33.640 Mentally.

00:44:34.220 Mental.

00:44:34.620 Mentally.

00:44:36.080 Physically.

00:44:37.760 I do.

00:44:39.040 No.

00:44:39.360 It actually does.

00:44:40.280 It makes me very sad because the.

00:44:43.060 Okay.

00:44:43.180 These are the people that are like dictating corporate policy and are pushing public policy

00:44:48.460 like this kind of person.

00:44:50.440 Yeah.

00:44:51.320 Oh my gosh.

00:44:52.240 Yeah. 0.99

00:44:52.400 We are absolutely screwed if we go to war. 1.00

00:44:55.240 Screwed. 1.00

00:44:56.600 I mean.

00:44:57.100 Yeah.

00:44:58.040 It's really sad.

00:44:58.860 How did we end up like this?

00:45:00.040 How did we get a generation of of people like this?

00:45:03.960 I don't.

00:45:04.640 I don't know.

00:45:05.180 I'm sad.

00:45:05.720 I'm sad for her.

00:45:06.460 But it also it made me laugh a little bit like she put all of our favorite sayings into

00:45:11.500 like one police interaction.

00:45:13.220 I will say a for effort.

00:45:15.040 Yeah.

00:45:15.180 You know.

00:45:15.960 Yeah.

00:45:16.640 Yeah.

00:45:17.340 I've never tried.

00:45:18.220 I've never been that creative.

00:45:19.140 Have you ever gotten pulled over?

00:45:20.620 No.

00:45:21.040 I knew that you were going to say that.

00:45:22.560 Wow.

00:45:22.820 Oh actually.

00:45:23.600 I lied.

00:45:24.440 I did because I forgot to turn my headlights on once.

00:45:27.660 Oh.

00:45:27.940 But I'm a good driver.

00:45:28.800 So I have it.

00:45:29.260 So what was your excuse?

00:45:30.480 What did you say?

00:45:31.720 Oh I grovel.

00:45:33.360 I'm like I'm so sorry.

00:45:34.260 I'm so sorry.

00:45:35.180 I know.

00:45:35.720 I'm so sorry.

00:45:35.740 Did you get a ticket or a warning?

00:45:37.020 He gave me a warning.

00:45:38.080 Okay.

00:45:38.380 That's good.

00:45:38.500 Because I almost was crying.

00:45:40.280 I've gotten pulled over a lot.

00:45:42.100 For speeding.

00:45:43.380 For speeding?

00:45:44.320 Yeah.

00:45:44.920 Yeah.

00:45:45.260 It's always speeding.

00:45:46.200 I just feel like and this is what my husband says because he's so I'm from Texas and

00:45:53.760 I think that everything should be 60 miles an hour and my husband says that that's not

00:45:59.780 why that's why I'm a bad driver because I'm always going 60 miles an hour whether it's

00:46:04.560 the speed limit is 70 or 45 and he is a good driver.

00:46:10.920 He's from Georgia.

00:46:11.920 I don't know.

00:46:12.480 Maybe Georgians are better drivers. 1.00

00:46:15.200 I'm from Texas and so I don't know.

00:46:17.480 We just have competing driving styles but I think 60 miles an hour is a really great speed

00:46:22.140 limit and I have a hard time going under that so I've gotten pulled over a lot.

00:46:25.540 That's just the speed limit.

00:46:27.220 Yeah.

00:46:27.760 But I don't I don't give any excuse but now now I've got a whole I've got a whole list

00:46:32.640 of excuses that I could possibly give.

00:46:34.160 All right.

00:46:47.580 I think that's all we've got time for today.
