00:00:47.460 Let this be the first step towards the brighter future you deserve.

00:00:51.040 Welcome to Season 3, Episode 12 of the Jordan B. Peterson Podcast.

00:01:01.360 I'm Mikayla Peterson, Jordan's daughter.

00:01:03.780 I hope you enjoy this episode. It's called The Great Sacrifice, Abraham and Isaac.

00:01:08.680 We're still in Serbia. Dad's going to be back producing actual interview podcasts soon enough.

00:01:14.640 But, for now, if you're interested in checking out my podcast, I'm releasing interviews every Tuesday.

00:01:21.080 Last Tuesday was a podcast with my good friend Christopher Williamson on life hacks, simple things you can change to massively improve your productivity.

00:01:29.320 They're not nearly as intense as these lectures, but I like them.

00:01:32.900 You can just Google The Mikayla Peterson Podcast and episodes to show up on YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts.

00:01:38.780 I hope you have a good week. Enjoy the episode.

00:01:41.180 Everyone is stressed these days.

00:01:45.640 Stress can have very serious effects on your health and can lead to a shorter lifespan and healthspan.

00:01:50.820 Your healthspan is the number of years you can live without disease as you age.

00:01:54.740 Dad and I have been improving our healthspan by getting NAD treatments.

00:01:58.320 In our case, these treatments have also resulted in improved moods and energy levels,

00:02:02.180 and I've been getting an energetic buzzing feeling in a good way.

00:02:05.660 The only downside is that these treatments involve being hooked up to an IV for eight hours.

00:02:09.660 If you don't have the time or patience for that, a great alternative is a supplement called Basis, produced by the company Elysium.

00:02:17.100 Basis works by increasing your NAD levels and activating what scientists call our longevity genes.

00:02:22.900 Many of the benefits of increased NAD are things you won't feel like enhanced mitochondrial function, active longevity genes, and improved DNA repair.

00:02:30.980 But Basis customers also report experiencing higher energy, better sleep, and more satisfying workouts.

00:02:36.340 Plus, it's easy. Just take two capsules a day to improve the way you age.

00:02:41.340 Listeners can get 10% off of a monthly subscription to Basis by visiting trybasis.com slash Jordan and using the promo code Jordan10.

00:02:50.340 That's trybasis.com slash Jordan and the promo code Jordan10.

00:02:56.180 That's a great deal on a groundbreaking supplement.

00:02:58.240 Season 3, episode 12, The Great Sacrifice, Abraham and Isaac, a Jordan B. Peterson lecture.

00:03:12.800 Thank you. Thank you.

00:03:15.400 So, I've been thinking about things that I'm happy about, and what I'm most happy about so far is that I haven't spilled my bubbly water into my computer so far while I've been doing these lectures.

00:03:26.980 That's always. I'll probably do it tonight now that I'm bragging about having avoided it.

00:03:31.220 So, thank you all for coming.

00:03:33.220 This is the last lecture in this 12-part series.

00:03:36.440 I did mention that I have made arrangements with the theatre at least to do this once a month for the next four months, and we'll see.

00:03:43.320 We'll play it by year past then.

00:03:44.660 I want to continue, and I'll find another venue, and perhaps to do it every two weeks, but certainly once a month.

00:03:49.740 And maybe I can even get deeper into the material if it's only once a month, so that would be...

00:03:54.400 Then we'll really slow down to a snail's crawl.

00:03:56.700 So, this is a tough one tonight.

00:04:00.620 You know, it's something, a story that everyone with any sense should approach with a substantial degree of trepidation.

00:04:06.340 I've been working on my book this week on chapter 7, which is called Do What is Meaningful, Not What's Expedient.

00:04:14.840 And it's really, it's been a very difficult chapter, because I'm coming to, I'm trying to extend my understanding of sacrifice, which is, of course, what we're going to talk about tonight in great detail.

00:04:30.060 And I've been wrestling with exactly how to do that, and I'm going to read you some of that, I think, today.

00:04:35.600 I don't generally read when I do my lectures, but this is so complicated that I'm not confident of my ability to just spin it off, you know, sort of, what would you call it?

00:04:45.840 Spontaneously, that's the word.

00:04:48.260 And so, and it'll also give me a chance to test out whether what I've written, which I've been struggling with, has the kind of poetic flow that I'd like to have.

00:04:56.800 If you're writing, it's really good to read things aloud, you know, because you can tell if you've got the rhythmic cadence right then.

00:05:02.820 So, anyways, thank you all for coming.

00:05:06.100 Many of you have, I believe, attended all 12 lectures, and that's really remarkable.

00:05:10.680 It's amazing that, you know, this place has been full every single lecture.

00:05:15.180 It's completely unbelievable, that would be the case.

00:05:17.460 And, you know, about more than 2 million views have, this has been watched more than 2 million views.

00:05:23.200 It's not 2 million people, because it would be the same people, I would suspect, many times.

00:05:27.260 But that's also crazy.

00:05:29.080 But it's a crazy world, and it seems to be getting crazier.

00:05:32.140 So, hopefully this is some addition to stabilizing it and making it slightly more sane.

00:05:38.720 That's the hope, anyways.

00:05:40.560 So, we've got a couple of stories to deal with tonight.

00:05:45.380 Complex, complex stories.

00:05:48.240 Not really easy to comprehend in any sense of the word.

00:05:52.100 I mean, with the story of Isaac, God calls on his chosen individual, Abraham, the person he's made this contract with, to sacrifice his son.

00:06:02.420 And it's, how in the world are you supposed to make any sort of sensible sense out of that?

00:06:07.440 It's exactly that sort of story that makes modern people who are convinced that the faster we put the biblical stories behind us, the better.

00:06:15.420 It's grist for their mill, you know, because it seems like such an incomprehensible and even barbaric act on the part of God.

00:06:22.580 And so, you know, I hesitate to even approach it, because, well, because there's so many ways that an interpretation of that sort can go wrong.

00:06:32.820 But we'll see how it goes.

00:06:33.980 And so, let's walk through it and see what happens.

00:06:36.940 So, we're going to start with the story of Sarah and Isaac.

00:06:40.740 And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said.

00:06:43.400 You remember when Abraham was in the midst of his appropriate sacrificial routines, which we've characterized as his return to the contract he made with the idea of the good, the contract with God.

00:06:56.340 He was informed by God that he would get what he most wanted, which was an error, despite his advanced old age.

00:07:03.140 And, of course, Sarah was very skeptical about that, as she had every reason to be.

00:07:07.100 But this story opens with the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham.

00:07:12.560 And the Lord visited Sarah as he had said.

00:07:14.960 And the Lord did unto Sarah as he had spoken.

00:07:17.900 For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.

00:07:25.260 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.

00:07:31.180 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God commanded him, had commanded him.

00:07:36.680 And Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born unto him.

00:07:42.040 And Sarah said, God hath made me laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.

00:07:50.180 And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham that Sarah should have given children suck?

00:07:54.580 For I've borne him a son in his old age.

00:07:56.760 And the child grew and was weaned.

00:07:58.460 And Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.

00:08:02.480 I suppose one of the purposes, let's say, perhaps the literary purposes of this story,

00:08:08.920 is to exaggerate for dramatic purposes the importance of a child.

00:08:16.120 You know, when people are young, and I think this is particularly true in the modern world,

00:08:22.720 they seem to often regard the possibility of having a child as an impediment to their lifestyle.

00:08:31.060 You know, and of course, in some ways, I suppose that's true.

00:08:35.120 Although you have to have quite a lifestyle before a child actually constitutes an impediment.

00:08:40.360 Because having a child in your life is actually something that's remarkable, almost beyond belief.

00:08:45.660 You know, you can have a relationship with a child that is better than any relationship you've ever had with anyone in your life.

00:08:51.580 If you're careful, and if you're fortunate.

00:08:55.100 Being fortunate helps.

00:08:57.400 You know, I've seen many people delay having children.

00:09:01.260 And for understandable reasons, it's no simple decision to have a child.

00:09:04.380 And of course, now we can make the decision to have a child, which of course people couldn't in past ages, really.

00:09:10.180 But sometimes you see people delay, and they delay too long, and then they don't get to have a child.

00:09:14.120 And then they're desperate, and you know, they spend a decade doing fertility treatments, or that sort of thing.

00:09:19.140 And immersing themselves in one disappointment after another.

00:09:21.960 And it's just at that point, you see exactly how catastrophic it is.

00:09:25.620 It can be how catastrophic it can be for people not to have one of the, not to be able to undergo one of the great adventures of life, let's say.

00:09:37.000 And one of the things this story does by delaying the arrival of Isaac, and delaying the arrival of Isaac continually, is to exaggerate the important significance of the child.

00:09:50.020 Because it isn't until you're deprived of something, it's truly not until you're deprived of something, that you have any sense of what its value is.

00:09:57.180 And Isaac was waiting, or Abraham was waiting a very long time, a hundred years is a very long time.

00:10:02.460 And the same with Sarah.

00:10:03.640 And so they're unbelievably excited.

00:10:05.440 And of course, this also heightens the drama that's inherent in the entire sacrificial story.

00:10:10.640 Because it's not only that eventually that Abraham is called upon to sacrifice Isaac, which would be bad enough under any other, any circumstances whatsoever, self-evidently.

00:10:20.180 But the fact that he's been waiting a century for the arrival of this child desperately, and made all the proper sacrifices, and lived in the appropriate manner to allow this to occur, dramatically heightens the literary tension.

00:10:36.000 Now you remember, Hagar, this is the next part of the story, Hagar was Sarah's handmaid.

00:10:45.760 And when Sarah was unable to bear Abraham a child, she sent him Hagar, and Hagar immediately got pregnant, and gave birth to Ishmael.

00:10:57.140 And the story picks up from that point here.

00:11:00.600 And this is quite interesting.

00:11:01.740 I mentioned the other week, when I was talking to you guys a couple of weeks in a row, just how interesting it has been to scour the internet for the paintings that are associated with these stories.

00:11:11.820 There's just a, there's an amazing wealth of great paintings that illustrate every single bit of the, of every single biblical story.

00:11:20.540 And it's, it's, it's, it's really been enlightening to me to find out just exactly how poorly educated I am.

00:11:26.440 You know, like I, I, I'm a, I'm a, what would you say, I'm, I'm a great admirer of, of artistic talent, and of artistic endeavor.

00:11:35.340 But, there's so much I don't know about the history of art, that it's just absolutely beyond belief.

00:11:39.920 And to see this treasure trove of images that I really had no idea that existed.

00:11:45.540 Of course, they're spread all over the world, and it's only been in recent years that you could have access to them in this way.

00:11:50.720 Just, it's just a, it's a, it's a, it's a constant revelation of the depth to which these stories have absolutely permeated our culture.

00:12:00.380 And the loss that it would be if we didn't know them properly, and, and take them with the degree of seriousness that they deserve.

00:12:07.580 So, anyways, this is one of those great images.

00:12:10.680 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had borne unto Abraham, mocking.

00:12:17.980 Wherefore, she said unto Abraham, cast out this bondswoman and her son, for the son of this bondswoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.

00:12:26.380 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.

00:12:29.660 There's been quite a bit of tension between Abraham, or between Sarah and Hagar, as you could imagine there might be.

00:12:35.660 Why wouldn't there be?

00:12:36.980 I mean, first of all, Hagar had the first child, and, and that elevated her status, and she was Sarah's maid, handmaid.

00:12:43.300 And so, that's obviously going to be quite awkward.

00:12:45.320 And then, she, she lorded it over Sarah because of the fact that she got pregnant so easily.

00:12:52.040 And now we see this situation where Ishmael is doing the same thing with regards to Isaac.

00:12:58.940 And that causes a substantial amount of trouble.

00:13:02.720 The family, there's a familial division occurring here.

00:13:05.660 And God said unto Abraham, let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad and because of the bondwoman,

00:13:12.860 in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice, for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

00:13:18.980 And, but also of the son of the bondwoman, will I make a nation because he is thy seed?

00:13:23.760 That's, so that's it, that's an interesting outcome too.

00:13:26.160 You know, we, we pointed out before, we discussed before the fact that because Abraham has made, has lived his life properly and has kept the contract with God, there's every evidence in the story that no matter what the vicissitudes of Abraham's life, you know, how the great serpent that he sits on in some sense weaves back and forth.

00:13:46.160 There's always the promise that things will work out positively and, you know, you could read that as naive optimism.

00:13:52.740 But I think it has a lot more to do with the actual power of keeping the contractual agreement.

00:13:59.680 Because I really do believe, and I've spent a tremendous amount of time thinking about this over the last couple of weeks in addition to the decades before that, is that, and all that's happened since I've been doing these biblical lectures is that my conviction in this has been strengthened, which is quite interesting, is that if you, if you do what it is that you're called upon to do,

00:14:19.660 which is to lift your eyes up above the mundane, daily, selfish, impulsive issues that might beset you and attempt to enter into a contractual relationship with that which you might hold in the highest regard, whatever that might be, to aim high and to make that important above all else in your life, that that fortifies you against the vicissitudes of existence like nothing else can.

00:14:45.080 And I truly believe that that's the most practical advice that you can possibly, that you could possibly receive.

00:14:53.560 You know, I received, I was answering questions last night, I did this Q&A, which I do about once a month for the people who are supporting me on Patreon, which I also release on YouTube, and somebody asked, you know, they were struggling with their religious faith, and they asked what they could do about that.

00:15:10.540 And I'd also been thinking about the difference between Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, which I'll discuss in a minute, and I was trying to answer this question with regards to religious faith, because he, this person was shaky in his faith in life, let's say, which is a better way of thinking about it.

00:15:28.100 And it seems to me that the way that you fortify your faith in being, and in life, in your own existence, isn't to try to convince yourself of the existence of a transcendent power, that you could believe in the same way that you believe in a set of empirical facts.

00:15:43.540 I don't think that's the right approach. I think it's a weak approach, actually.

00:15:48.380 I don't think that the cognitive technology, I don't think that's the right cognitive technology for that set of problems, you know, that's more technology that you'd use if you were trying to solve a scientific problem.

00:15:59.600 It's more like, it's more something that needs to be embedded in action, rather than in statable belief.

00:16:06.820 And the way that you fortify your faith in life is to assume the best, something like that, and then to act courageously in relationship to that.

00:16:14.800 And that's tantamount to expressing your faith in the highest possible good. It's tantamount to expressing your faith in God.

00:16:22.760 And it's not a matter of stating, well, I believe in the existence of a transcendent deity, because in some sense, who cares what you believe?

00:16:31.000 I mean, you might in all that, but that's not the issue. It's not the issue. The issue, it seems to me, is how you act.

00:16:37.580 And I was thinking about this intensely when I was thinking about Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, because, of course, you know that Nietzsche was the philosopher who announced the death of God, right?

00:16:46.980 And who was a great, great critic of Christianity, a vicious critic of institutional Christianity, in the best sense, you know?

00:16:53.840 And he announced the death of God, and he said that we'd never find enough water to wash away the blood.

00:16:59.300 It wasn't a triumphant proclamation, even though it's often read that way.

00:17:02.760 And Nietzsche's conclusion from that, from the death of God, the fact that our ethical systems were going to collapse when the foundation was pulled out from underneath them,

00:17:12.980 he believed that human beings would have to find their own values, to create their own values.

00:17:17.620 And there's a problem with that, because it doesn't seem, this is something Carl Jung was very thorough in investigating,

00:17:23.300 it doesn't really look like people are capable of creating their own values, because you're not really capable of moulding yourself just any old way you want to be.

00:17:31.680 Like, you have a nature that you have to contend with, and so, it isn't a matter of creating our own values, because we don't have that capacity.

00:17:39.480 It might be a matter of rediscovering those values, which is what Jung was attempting to do.

00:17:44.940 Now, and so I think Nietzsche was actually profoundly wrong in that recommendation.

00:17:50.980 I think he was psychologically wrong.

00:17:52.340 Now, you know, Dostoevsky wrote, in many ways, in parallel to Nietzsche, and was a great influence on Nietzsche.

00:17:59.860 Their lives parallel each other to a degree that's somewhat miraculous, in some sense, it's quite uncanny.

00:18:05.940 Dostoevsky was obviously a literary figure, whereas Nietzsche was a philosopher, a literary philosopher, but still a philosopher.

00:18:12.560 Dostoevsky wrestled with exactly the same problems that Nietzsche wrestled with, but he did it in a different way.

00:18:20.840 He did it in a literary manner, and he has this great book, The Brothers Karamazov, and in that book, the hero of the book is really Eliosha, who's a monastic novitiate.

00:18:30.680 A very good guy, kind of, not an intellect, not an intellect, but a person of great character, you know, but he has a brother, Ivan, who's his older brother, who's a great intellect, and a very handsome soldier, and a brave man, and like Dostoevsky's villains, Ivan isn't exactly a villain, but that's close enough.

00:18:48.320 Ivan, or Dostoevsky, makes his villains extraordinarily powerful, so if Dostoevsky's trying to work out an argument, he clothes the argument in the flesh of one of his characters,

00:18:58.960 and if it's an argument he doesn't agree with, then he makes that character as strong as he possibly can, as strong and as attractive and intelligent as he possibly can,

00:19:07.320 and then he lets him just have at her, and so Ivan is constantly attacking Eliosha, and from every direction, trying to knock him off his perch of faith, let's say,

00:19:17.240 and Eliosha can't address a single one of Ivan's criticisms, and he doesn't have the intellect for it, and Ivan has a devastating intellect.

00:19:27.080 It's devastating to him, himself, as well. What happens in the brothers Karamazov, essentially, is that Eliosha continues to act out his commitment to the good, let's say,

00:19:38.020 and in that manner, he's triumphant. It doesn't matter that he loses the arguments, because the arguments aren't exactly the point.

00:19:43.980 The arguments, in some sense, are a side issue, because the issue is, and this is the existential issue, the issue is not what you believe,

00:19:51.460 as if it's a set of facts, but how you conduct yourself in the world, and so Dostoevsky, he grasped that, and it's one of the things that makes him such an amazing,

00:20:00.280 amazing literary figure, an amazing genius, because he was smart enough to formulate the arguments in a manner that no one else really could,

00:20:09.240 with the possible exception of Nietzsche, and that's quite an exception, and yet he could still,

00:20:13.380 using his dramatic embodiment, he could still lay out solutions to the problems that he was describing,

00:20:20.220 that are extremely compelling, and both Crime and Punishment, which is an amazing, thrilling, engrossing book,

00:20:28.880 and the brothers Karamazov, all of Dostoevsky's great books, really circulate around those profound moral issues,

00:20:35.300 and so I've learned a tremendous amount from reading him, so,

00:20:40.700 And God said unto Abraham,

00:20:42.460 Let it not be grievous in thy sight, because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman, and all that Sarah hath said unto thee,

00:20:47.340 hearken unto her voice, for in Isaac shall thy seed be called,

00:20:52.840 and also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed,

00:20:57.320 all right, so I commented that Abraham is being blessed in multiple directions,

00:21:01.360 even when things are going wrong, and this is pretty bad, because his family, in some sense, is breaking up,

00:21:06.420 there's this emphasis in the text, that because he's kept this contractual relationship with God,

00:21:12.060 that he's in an ark, we could say it that, we could put it that way,

00:21:15.760 and that he'll triumph through the vicissitudes of life, which is the best you can hope for,

00:21:21.500 and it's quite interesting, again, one of the things that's so powerful about the Abrahamic stories,

00:21:25.540 is that it's not like Abraham, even though he's chosen by God,

00:21:28.320 it's not like he has an easy time of it, he has a rough life, I mean, it's a successful life,

00:21:31.980 and all that, but it's not, it's not, it's not, it's not without its troubles, that's for sure,

00:21:37.560 it's got every sort of trouble you could possibly imagine, pretty much,

00:21:40.340 and that's one of the things that makes the story so realistic, as far as I'm concerned.

00:21:45.620 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water,

00:21:49.460 and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away,

00:21:54.260 and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.

00:22:00.080 I found the, it's funny, I guess this had more of an emotional impact on me this week,

00:22:05.300 than it might have, because my daughter just had a baby a week ago,

00:22:07.820 and so I've been thinking about this sort of thing, you know,

00:22:11.400 and we're so happy that that's happened,

00:22:13.640 and I was trying to put myself in the, what would you say,

00:22:17.080 the conceptual space of the people about who this story,

00:22:20.640 or people who these stories are about, and trying to, you know,

00:22:24.640 notice the catastrophe that this sort of breakup would actually constitute,

00:22:28.920 and, you know, and the visual images really helped with that,

00:22:31.900 because they're, they're so carefully crafted,

00:22:34.220 and, and they hit the story from so many different directions,

00:22:38.280 that, you know, they add that, an additional layer of,

00:22:41.500 of emotional meaning to it, which I found very, very significant.

00:22:44.140 And the water was spent in the bottle,

00:22:47.240 and she cast the child under one of the shrubs,

00:22:50.040 and she's sent to wander in the desert, you know,

00:22:52.220 so it's not just that she has to leave Abraham's household,

00:22:55.480 it's that where she goes is not really amenable to life,

00:22:59.460 and so it's, it's extraordinarily dramatic, and, and, and terrible tale.

00:23:05.500 And she went and sat her down over against him a good way off,

00:23:09.400 as it were a bow shot,

00:23:10.580 for she said, let me not see the death of the child.

00:23:14.440 And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.

00:23:19.800 And God heard the voice of the lad,

00:23:21.720 and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven,

00:23:24.760 and said unto her,

00:23:26.220 What aileth thee, Hagar?

00:23:28.820 Fear not,

00:23:30.040 for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.

00:23:34.540 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand,

00:23:37.460 for I will make him a great nation.

00:23:40.960 And God opened her eyes,

00:23:42.380 and she saw a well of water,

00:23:43.900 and she went and filled the bottle with water,

00:23:46.440 and gave the lad drink.

00:23:52.220 And God was with the lad,

00:23:53.580 and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness,

00:23:55.240 and became an archer.

00:23:56.900 And that's actually a relevant detail, too,

00:23:59.440 the fact that he became an archer,

00:24:00.900 because I think I mentioned to you at one point

00:24:03.320 that the word sin is derived from a Greek word,

00:24:05.700 hamartia, even though it sounds nothing like that word,

00:24:07.660 and hamartia is actually an archery term,

00:24:11.520 and it means to miss the bullseye.

00:24:15.540 And that's a lovely metaphor for sin, I think,

00:24:18.980 because it's associated so tightly with the idea of goal direction and aim.

00:24:24.320 You know, because there's a metaphorical idea that's embedded in that image,

00:24:30.280 and that is that, you know,

00:24:31.420 a human being is something that specifies a target,

00:24:34.700 which we do all the time with our eyes, by the way.

00:24:36.600 I mean, our eyes are target-specifying mechanisms.

00:24:39.560 You know, we have very precise, central focal vision,

00:24:42.460 and we use our focal vision to target the aim of our behavior.

00:24:46.180 And so we are aiming creatures.

00:24:48.480 It's built right into our body.

00:24:51.320 We're built on a hunting platform.

00:24:53.120 We're aiming creatures,

00:24:54.180 and we do that cognitively as well as behaviorally.

00:24:56.800 And so, as hunters,

00:24:58.540 we take aim at things,

00:24:59.480 and we take aim at moving targets,

00:25:00.820 and we're very good at bringing them down,

00:25:02.160 and we've been doing that for who knows how long,

00:25:04.780 millions of years, really.

00:25:06.200 Even chimpanzees are carnivorous, by the way,

00:25:08.420 and we split from them about six million years ago.

00:25:10.520 So we've been hunting and aiming for a very, very long period of time,

00:25:14.660 and we still have aims in our life, right?

00:25:16.920 And that's how we describe them.

00:25:18.000 What are you aiming at, or what are your aims?

00:25:19.620 What are your goals?

00:25:20.820 What's your target?

00:25:22.100 It's all based on that hunting metaphor.

00:25:25.040 And the fact that Ishmael becomes an archer

00:25:27.880 means that he's someone who can take aim

00:25:29.940 at the center of the bullseye

00:25:31.440 and hit it precisely.

00:25:33.720 And so that's an indication that he's a good man, right?

00:25:38.200 So, and I suppose also part of the,

00:25:42.600 part of, it carries part of the narrative weight of the story

00:25:45.320 because, of course, he's Abraham's son,

00:25:46.900 and you'd expect Abraham's son to be someone

00:25:48.680 who's very good at taking aim.

00:25:50.460 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran,

00:25:52.580 and he could live there and survive,

00:25:54.000 which is no trivial thing.

00:25:55.960 And his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.

00:25:58.280 Okay, so that's the story of Hagar,

00:26:01.900 and it's a fairly straightforward story.

00:26:03.420 It's complex emotionally, but it doesn't,

00:26:06.060 and it brings up the terrible theme of familial catastrophe

00:26:10.120 and the complications of romantic and familial relationships

00:26:14.480 and all of that.

00:26:15.600 But it really serves as a prodroma to the next story,

00:26:19.280 which is the one that's so complex

00:26:21.280 and so difficult to understand.

00:26:25.700 And it came to pass after these things

00:26:28.000 that God did tempt Abraham,

00:26:31.740 which is a funny thing for God to do, I suppose,

00:26:34.500 and said unto him,

00:26:36.040 Abraham,

00:26:37.260 and he said,

00:26:38.080 Behold, here I am.

00:26:40.480 And God said,

00:26:41.760 Take now thy son,

00:26:44.100 thine only son Isaac,

00:26:45.380 who thou lovest,

00:26:46.220 and get thee into the land of Moriah,

00:26:49.340 and offer him there for a burnt offering

00:26:51.160 upon one of the mountains,

00:26:52.860 which I will tell thee of.

00:26:54.940 And Abraham rose up early in the morning

00:26:56.580 and saddled his ass

00:26:57.540 and took two of his young men with him

00:26:58.940 and Isaac his son

00:27:00.180 and claved the wood for the burnt offering

00:27:02.340 and rose up

00:27:02.920 and went unto the place

00:27:03.940 of which God had told him.

00:27:06.980 Then on the third day of journeying,

00:27:08.760 Abraham lifted up his eyes

00:27:09.860 and saw the place afar off.

00:27:12.320 And Abraham said unto his young men,

00:27:13.920 Abide ye here with the ass

00:27:16.180 and I and the lad will go yonder and worship

00:27:18.660 and come again to you.

00:27:24.840 It's really one of the first times

00:27:26.800 that we've come across the word worship,

00:27:28.580 if I remember correctly.

00:27:29.540 And it's a very difficult word to contend with too.

00:27:32.840 You know,

00:27:34.020 if you're like me

00:27:35.740 or if you're like me when I was a kid,

00:27:37.280 because I haven't thought about this for a long time,

00:27:39.060 it was never really obvious to me

00:27:40.420 why God would want to be worshipped.

00:27:41.900 You know,

00:27:42.380 if you go to church

00:27:43.260 and you offer up your praise and thanks to God

00:27:46.080 and you think,

00:27:47.120 well,

00:27:47.440 really,

00:27:47.920 does that make a lot of sense?

00:27:49.400 It's like,

00:27:49.800 why in the world is that what he wants?

00:27:51.480 It's like,

00:27:52.120 it's almost like you're

00:27:53.640 you're kneeling down in front of an

00:27:55.840 of an ancient Middle Eastern,

00:27:58.900 you know,

00:27:59.300 tyrannical emperor

00:28:00.320 and

00:28:01.120 and

00:28:01.220 and vowing your submission

00:28:02.700 and

00:28:03.020 and

00:28:03.280 that never sat well with me

00:28:06.200 and I suppose it doesn't sit well with many people

00:28:08.320 and I think that's because

00:28:09.360 it's not the proper way of conceptualizing it.

00:28:12.420 What happens when you see

00:28:13.700 what Abraham does continually

00:28:15.240 and this seems to be implicit

00:28:16.900 in the use of the word worship

00:28:19.160 in this particular situation

00:28:21.300 is that,

00:28:22.360 you know,

00:28:22.600 as we discussed,

00:28:23.940 he has an adventure in his life

00:28:25.700 that comes to an end.

00:28:26.580 So there's an episode in his life

00:28:27.900 that comes to an end

00:28:28.580 and then there's a period of

00:28:29.560 you might consider it

00:28:31.160 where he reconstitutes himself

00:28:33.500 to some degree

00:28:34.260 and it's,

00:28:35.300 that's when he makes his sacrifices

00:28:36.600 and it seems to me

00:28:37.760 that it's that reconstitution

00:28:39.200 that constitutes the worship.

00:28:40.640 The worship is something like

00:28:41.660 you know,

00:28:42.540 this is alluding back

00:28:43.660 to my original proposition

00:28:44.960 that it's how you act

00:28:45.960 that's the issue

00:28:46.660 and the worship is

00:28:47.980 the decision to

00:28:49.380 enact the good

00:28:50.800 in whatever form it is

00:28:51.980 that you can conceptualize it

00:28:53.220 as well as

00:28:53.740 trying to continually

00:28:55.180 reconceptualize the good

00:28:56.520 in a manner that makes

00:28:57.720 the good that you're conceptualizing

00:28:59.140 even that much better,

00:29:00.340 right?

00:29:00.500 Because when you start aiming

00:29:02.160 the probability

00:29:03.220 that you're going to be aiming

00:29:04.200 in the right direction

00:29:05.140 is very low

00:29:05.980 but hypothetically

00:29:07.700 as you aim

00:29:08.500 and as you practice

00:29:09.320 and as you learn

00:29:10.140 the target is going to shift

00:29:12.320 in front of your eyes

00:29:13.820 and you're going to be able

00:29:14.460 to follow it ever more clearly

00:29:15.800 and so,

00:29:16.620 and that seems to me

00:29:17.480 and especially

00:29:18.480 given the context

00:29:19.700 that this word is used

00:29:20.980 in this particular story

00:29:22.160 is much more

00:29:22.960 appropriate interpretation

00:29:24.360 of what constitutes

00:29:25.420 proper worship

00:29:26.180 and I suppose it's akin

00:29:27.260 to the later Christian idea

00:29:29.140 that it's the imitation of Christ

00:29:31.220 that's the sacred duty

00:29:32.320 of every Christian

00:29:33.740 of every Christian

00:29:35.340 and every human being

00:29:37.120 I suppose

00:29:37.620 insofar as that's

00:29:38.900 an archetypal idea

00:29:39.800 and the idea is something like

00:29:41.760 well it's the embodiment

00:29:43.480 of the good

00:29:44.760 that's the issue

00:29:45.720 and it's not your stated

00:29:47.520 belief in the good

00:29:48.640 and you know

00:29:49.400 when Nietzsche was

00:29:50.180 criticizing Christianity

00:29:51.380 this is actually

00:29:52.160 one of the things

00:29:52.860 that he brought up

00:29:53.540 as a major issue

00:29:54.600 he said that he believed

00:29:55.560 Christianity had lost its way

00:29:57.080 because it had introduced

00:29:58.740 a confusion

00:29:59.500 between stated belief

00:30:01.320 which is say

00:30:01.940 your belief

00:30:02.400 in the divinity of Christ

00:30:03.440 whatever it means

00:30:04.460 if you state that

00:30:05.340 it isn't obvious

00:30:06.140 what it means

00:30:06.920 when you state that

00:30:08.040 because it isn't obvious

00:30:09.020 what it would mean

00:30:10.060 that you believe it

00:30:10.700 or even what it is

00:30:11.580 that you're believing in

00:30:12.700 as far as Nietzsche was concerned

00:30:14.440 in some sense

00:30:15.080 not only was that

00:30:15.820 beside the point

00:30:16.560 it was dangerously

00:30:17.500 beside the point

00:30:18.260 because it actually

00:30:19.140 allowed

00:30:20.720 the Christian believer

00:30:22.720 not to adopt

00:30:24.440 the moral burden

00:30:25.320 that was actually

00:30:26.020 appropriate

00:30:26.520 to the faith

00:30:27.580 which was

00:30:28.100 to

00:30:28.680 and this is

00:30:29.540 I'm using a kind of

00:30:30.500 a Jungian concept here

00:30:32.800 to manifest the archetype

00:30:34.580 within the confines

00:30:35.440 of your own life

00:30:36.380 and that's to make

00:30:37.560 the divine

00:30:38.180 that your relationship

00:30:39.400 with the divine

00:30:40.020 your relationship

00:30:40.600 with the transcendent

00:30:41.560 and infinite

00:30:42.000 into something

00:30:43.000 that's actually

00:30:43.980 realizable

00:30:44.760 in the context

00:30:45.860 of your own life

00:30:46.700 which is to say

00:30:47.360 well

00:30:47.620 you know

00:30:48.260 you're supposed to

00:30:49.000 you're supposed to

00:30:50.100 again

00:30:50.520 to act out

00:30:51.200 the highest good

00:30:51.920 of which you're capable

00:30:52.860 now that'll transform

00:30:53.800 your life

00:30:54.260 to some degree

00:30:54.860 into an archetypal

00:30:55.680 adventure

00:30:56.140 there's no way

00:30:56.980 around that

00:30:57.580 because as you

00:30:58.680 attempt to

00:30:59.480 climb a higher

00:31:01.040 mountain

00:31:01.440 let's say

00:31:01.900 or to aim

00:31:02.420 at a higher

00:31:02.860 target

00:31:03.280 or something

00:31:03.640 like that

00:31:04.080 then the things

00:31:04.940 around you

00:31:05.380 will become

00:31:05.900 increasingly

00:31:06.880 dramatic

00:31:07.720 and of import

00:31:08.880 that happens

00:31:09.760 by necessity

00:31:10.480 obviously

00:31:11.200 because if you're

00:31:12.280 aiming at something

00:31:13.020 difficult and profound

00:31:14.560 and you're really

00:31:15.440 working at it

00:31:16.120 then your life

00:31:17.020 is going to become

00:31:17.820 perhaps increasingly

00:31:18.880 difficult and profound

00:31:20.080 but that might be

00:31:20.840 okay

00:31:21.140 that might be

00:31:21.940 exactly what you need

00:31:22.920 as an antidote

00:31:24.780 to the implicit

00:31:25.560 limitations

00:31:26.600 that face you

00:31:27.380 as a human being

00:31:28.280 and so

00:31:29.500 and I and the lad

00:31:32.680 will go yonder

00:31:33.320 and worship

00:31:33.780 and come again

00:31:34.440 to you

00:31:34.720 now

00:31:34.960 there's an implication

00:31:36.080 here too

00:31:36.720 that it's a

00:31:37.740 foreshadowing

00:31:38.400 that Abraham

00:31:39.460 offering up his son

00:31:40.920 is actually a form

00:31:41.840 of worship

00:31:42.280 and that it's

00:31:43.440 continuous

00:31:43.880 with what he's

00:31:44.680 already done

00:31:45.380 and well

00:31:46.740 now I'm going to

00:31:47.300 read you some

00:31:47.840 of the things

00:31:48.260 that I've written

00:31:49.100 and then I'll

00:31:49.820 return to this

00:31:50.520 and we'll see

00:31:50.960 how that goes

00:31:51.600 so life is

00:31:55.440 suffering

00:31:55.900 that's clear

00:31:57.920 there's no more

00:31:59.780 basic irrefutable

00:32:00.820 truth

00:32:01.340 it's basically

00:32:02.680 as we've seen

00:32:04.100 what God tells

00:32:05.260 Adam and Eve

00:32:05.920 immediately before

00:32:07.580 he kicks them

00:32:08.140 out of paradise

00:32:08.840 quote

00:32:10.660 unto the woman

00:32:11.400 he said

00:32:11.800 I will greatly

00:32:12.360 multiply thy sorrow

00:32:13.440 and thy conception

00:32:14.240 in sorrow

00:32:15.380 thou shalt

00:32:16.520 bring forth

00:32:17.160 children

00:32:17.580 and thy desire

00:32:19.360 shall be to thy husband

00:32:20.980 and he shall rule

00:32:21.820 over thee

00:32:22.260 and unto Adam

00:32:23.160 he said

00:32:23.680 because you have

00:32:25.020 hearkened

00:32:25.380 unto the voice

00:32:26.220 of thy wife

00:32:26.900 and hast eaten

00:32:27.620 of the tree

00:32:28.140 which I commanded

00:32:28.860 thee saying

00:32:29.420 thou shalt not

00:32:30.420 eat of it

00:32:30.960 cursed is the ground

00:32:32.380 for thy sake

00:32:33.100 in sorrow

00:32:34.180 shalt thou eat

00:32:35.560 of it

00:32:36.040 all the days

00:32:36.860 of thy life

00:32:37.480 thorns also

00:32:38.440 and thistles

00:32:39.040 shall it bring

00:32:39.880 forth to thee

00:32:40.540 and thou shalt

00:32:42.080 eat the herb

00:32:42.720 of the field

00:32:43.300 by the sweat

00:32:44.280 of your brow

00:32:44.840 you will eat

00:32:45.260 your food

00:32:45.660 until you return

00:32:46.320 to the ground

00:32:46.860 since from it

00:32:47.520 you were taken

00:32:48.060 for dust you are

00:32:49.280 and to dust

00:32:49.840 you will return

00:32:50.660 rough

00:32:52.540 you know

00:32:54.040 and we've associated

00:32:54.860 that with

00:32:55.540 with Adam and Eve's

00:32:57.500 eyes opening

00:32:58.320 and them becoming

00:32:59.700 self-conscious

00:33:00.380 and discovering

00:33:01.180 the future

00:33:01.740 and becoming

00:33:02.640 fully aware

00:33:03.340 and falling into history

00:33:04.840 and it seems to me

00:33:06.060 to be a very realistic

00:33:07.100 existential portrayal

00:33:08.560 of the predicament

00:33:09.380 of humankind

00:33:10.580 what in the world

00:33:12.540 should be done

00:33:13.080 about that

00:33:13.680 the simplest

00:33:15.640 most obvious

00:33:16.580 and most direct

00:33:17.940 answer

00:33:18.500 pursue pleasure

00:33:20.560 follow your impulses

00:33:22.820 live for the moment

00:33:23.820 do what's expedient

00:33:25.560 lie

00:33:26.900 cheat

00:33:27.320 steal

00:33:27.740 deceive

00:33:28.380 manipulate

00:33:29.080 but don't get caught

00:33:30.360 in an ultimately

00:33:32.120 meaningless universe

00:33:33.080 what possible difference

00:33:34.300 could it make

00:33:34.840 and this is by no means

00:33:36.940 a new idea

00:33:37.600 the fact of life's tragedy

00:33:39.560 and the suffering

00:33:40.180 that is part of it

00:33:40.880 has been used

00:33:41.460 to justify

00:33:42.100 the pursuit

00:33:43.100 of immediate

00:33:43.680 selfish gratification

00:33:44.920 for a very long time

00:33:46.580 even reading Jung

00:33:49.260 he often writes

00:33:51.100 as if

00:33:51.480 before

00:33:52.020 the rise

00:33:53.980 of the conflict

00:33:54.620 between religion

00:33:55.320 and science

00:33:55.900 which culminated

00:33:57.140 say in Nietzsche's

00:33:57.840 pronouncement

00:33:58.320 about the death

00:33:58.860 of God

00:33:59.260 that people lived

00:34:00.760 ensconced

00:34:02.000 quite safely

00:34:02.840 within a religious

00:34:03.580 conceptualization

00:34:04.560 that imbued their life

00:34:05.440 with meaning

00:34:05.840 and that that was

00:34:06.560 just the state

00:34:08.060 of reality

00:34:08.660 but there's ancient

00:34:09.620 writings that makes

00:34:10.380 it quite clear

00:34:10.940 that the crisis

00:34:11.980 of faith

00:34:12.580 that characterized

00:34:13.380 say modern people

00:34:14.140 were certainly

00:34:15.060 far from unknown

00:34:16.080 in the past

00:34:16.680 and here's

00:34:17.600 one of those

00:34:18.540 writings

00:34:18.840 this is from

00:34:19.420 Wisdom 2

00:34:20.360 the revised

00:34:22.600 standard version

00:34:23.560 short and sorrowful

00:34:25.760 is our life

00:34:26.660 and there is no remedy

00:34:29.060 when a man comes

00:34:29.840 to his end

00:34:30.400 and no one

00:34:31.520 has been known

00:34:32.700 to return from

00:34:33.540 Hades

00:34:33.940 because we were

00:34:35.280 born by mere chance

00:34:36.580 and hereafter

00:34:38.060 we shall be

00:34:39.220 as though

00:34:39.660 we had never been

00:34:40.640 because the breath

00:34:41.940 in our nostrils

00:34:42.720 is smoke

00:34:43.420 and reason

00:34:44.280 is just a spark

00:34:45.560 kindled by the beating

00:34:47.140 of our hearts

00:34:47.880 when it is extinguished

00:34:49.460 our body will turn

00:34:50.360 to ashes

00:34:50.820 and our spirit

00:34:51.920 will dissolve

00:34:52.580 like empty air

00:34:54.100 our name

00:34:56.240 will be forgotten

00:34:57.520 in time

00:34:58.120 and no one

00:34:58.840 will remember

00:34:59.340 our works

00:34:59.860 our life

00:35:00.340 will pass away

00:35:01.220 like the traces

00:35:02.320 of a cloud

00:35:02.960 and be scattered

00:35:03.600 like mist

00:35:04.220 that is chased

00:35:04.900 by the rays

00:35:05.500 of the sun

00:35:06.060 and overcome

00:35:06.540 by its heat

00:35:07.280 for our allotted

00:35:09.360 time

00:35:09.840 is but the passing

00:35:11.440 of a shadow

00:35:12.080 and there is no return

00:35:13.700 from our death

00:35:14.460 because it is sealed

00:35:15.960 up

00:35:16.340 and no one

00:35:17.340 turns back

00:35:18.000 come therefore

00:35:19.020 let us enjoy

00:35:20.640 the good things

00:35:21.880 that exist

00:35:22.460 and make use

00:35:23.200 of the creation

00:35:23.880 to the full

00:35:24.740 as in youth

00:35:25.580 let us take

00:35:27.080 our fill

00:35:27.620 of costly wines

00:35:28.720 and perfumes

00:35:29.620 and let no flower

00:35:31.440 of spring

00:35:31.980 pass us by

00:35:32.820 let us crown

00:35:34.240 ourselves

00:35:34.760 with rose buds

00:35:35.700 before they wither

00:35:36.660 let none of us

00:35:37.860 fail to share

00:35:39.020 in our revelry

00:35:40.020 everywhere let us

00:35:41.400 leave signs of enjoyment

00:35:42.500 because this is our portion

00:35:44.040 and this is our lot

00:35:45.560 let us oppress

00:35:46.700 the righteous

00:35:47.280 poor man

00:35:48.220 let us not spare

00:35:49.560 the widow

00:35:50.420 nor regard

00:35:51.180 the grey hairs

00:35:51.960 of the aged

00:35:52.980 but let our might

00:35:54.260 be our right

00:35:55.100 for what is weak

00:35:55.980 proves itself

00:35:56.960 to be useless

00:35:57.880 it's an amazing

00:36:01.720 piece of writing

00:36:04.220 you know

00:36:04.660 it starts with

00:36:05.900 an announcement

00:36:06.400 of the rationale

00:36:07.060 for nihilism

00:36:07.820 and ends with

00:36:08.980 the justification

00:36:09.600 for fascist tyranny

00:36:11.080 you know

00:36:11.960 and it's

00:36:12.400 thousands of years old

00:36:14.000 it's a remarkable

00:36:15.380 thing to see

00:36:16.240 and to be

00:36:17.140 laid out

00:36:17.840 so concisely

00:36:18.840 the pleasure

00:36:20.720 of expediency

00:36:21.520 may be fleeting

00:36:22.320 but it's pleasure

00:36:23.160 nonetheless

00:36:23.980 and that's something

00:36:25.440 to stack up

00:36:26.280 against the terror

00:36:27.260 and pain

00:36:27.780 of existence

00:36:28.440 every man

00:36:29.340 for himself

00:36:30.060 and the devil

00:36:31.520 take the hindmost

00:36:32.500 as the old proverb

00:36:34.200 has it

00:36:34.800 why not simply

00:36:36.560 take everything

00:36:37.220 you can get

00:36:37.880 whenever the opportunity

00:36:38.880 arises

00:36:39.400 why not

00:36:40.460 determine to live

00:36:41.420 in that manner

00:36:42.140 what's the alternative

00:36:45.040 and why should we

00:36:47.100 bother with it

00:36:47.800 our ancestors

00:36:49.060 worked out

00:36:49.740 very sophisticated

00:36:51.140 answers to such

00:36:52.240 questions

00:36:52.640 but we still don't

00:36:53.460 understand them

00:36:54.100 very well

00:36:54.600 this is because

00:36:55.600 they are in large

00:36:56.880 part still implicit

00:36:58.040 manifest primarily

00:36:59.420 in ritual

00:37:00.040 and myth

00:37:00.560 and as of yet

00:37:02.140 incompletely

00:37:03.340 articulated

00:37:04.040 we act them out

00:37:06.380 and represent them

00:37:07.060 in stories

00:37:07.580 but we're not

00:37:08.120 wise enough yet

00:37:09.020 to formulate them

00:37:10.600 explicitly

00:37:11.240 we're still chimps

00:37:13.000 in a troop

00:37:13.620 or wolves

00:37:14.200 in a pack

00:37:14.840 we know how to behave

00:37:16.340 we know who's who

00:37:17.320 and why

00:37:17.840 we've learned that

00:37:18.960 through experience

00:37:19.840 our knowledge

00:37:22.240 has been shaped

00:37:23.100 by our interaction

00:37:24.100 with others

00:37:24.620 we've established

00:37:25.580 predictable routines

00:37:26.680 and patterns of behavior

00:37:27.700 but we don't really

00:37:28.460 understand them

00:37:29.360 or know where

00:37:30.660 they originated

00:37:31.400 they've evolved

00:37:34.080 over great

00:37:34.560 expanses of time

00:37:35.620 no one was

00:37:37.160 formulating them

00:37:38.580 explicitly

00:37:39.160 at least not

00:37:40.420 in the dimmest

00:37:41.040 reaches of the past

00:37:42.160 even though

00:37:43.980 we've been telling

00:37:44.580 each other

00:37:45.000 how to act

00:37:45.580 forever

00:37:46.040 one day

00:37:48.000 however

00:37:48.340 not so long ago

00:37:49.200 we woke up

00:37:49.960 we were already

00:37:51.540 doing

00:37:52.160 but we started

00:37:53.580 noticing what

00:37:54.280 we were doing

00:37:54.780 we started using

00:37:55.580 our bodies

00:37:56.200 as devices

00:37:57.040 to represent

00:37:57.780 their own actions

00:37:58.800 we started

00:38:00.480 imitating

00:38:01.040 and dramatizing

00:38:02.020 we invented

00:38:03.120 ritual

00:38:03.600 we started

00:38:04.360 acting out

00:38:05.080 our own experiences

00:38:06.080 then we started

00:38:08.220 to tell stories

00:38:09.120 we coded

00:38:10.500 our observations

00:38:11.980 of our own

00:38:13.000 drama

00:38:13.440 in those stories

00:38:14.860 in this manner

00:38:16.620 the information

00:38:17.520 that was first

00:38:18.180 only embedded

00:38:18.820 in our behavior

00:38:19.540 became represented

00:38:20.480 in our stories

00:38:21.320 but we didn't

00:38:22.640 and we still

00:38:23.160 don't understand

00:38:23.900 what it all meant

00:38:25.100 the biblical narrative

00:38:27.040 of paradise

00:38:27.680 in the fall

00:38:28.240 is one such story

00:38:29.280 fabricated by our

00:38:30.740 collective imagination

00:38:31.740 working over the

00:38:32.960 centuries

00:38:33.420 it provides a

00:38:36.400 profound account

00:38:37.100 of the nature

00:38:37.640 of being

00:38:38.140 and points the way

00:38:39.320 to a mode of

00:38:40.980 conceptualization

00:38:41.980 and action

00:38:42.580 well matched

00:38:43.320 to that nature

00:38:44.080 in the garden

00:38:44.780 of eden

00:38:45.220 prior to the

00:38:46.720 dawn of

00:38:47.060 self-consciousness

00:38:47.960 so goes

00:38:48.500 the story

00:38:49.060 human beings

00:38:50.040 were sinless

00:38:50.900 our primordial

00:38:57.820 parents

00:38:58.280 adam and eve

00:38:58.920 walked with

00:39:00.280 god

00:39:00.680 then

00:39:01.820 tempted by

00:39:03.580 the snake

00:39:04.120 the first couple

00:39:05.600 ate from the tree

00:39:06.460 of the knowledge

00:39:07.120 of good and evil

00:39:07.900 discovered death

00:39:09.120 and vulnerability

00:39:09.740 and turned away

00:39:10.640 from god

00:39:11.280 mankind

00:39:12.540 was exiled

00:39:13.440 from paradise

00:39:15.020 and began

00:39:15.740 its effortful

00:39:16.940 mortal existence

00:39:18.020 the idea of

00:39:19.360 sacrifice

00:39:19.920 enters soon

00:39:20.660 afterwards

00:39:21.200 beginning with

00:39:21.820 the account

00:39:22.240 of cain and

00:39:22.760 abel

00:39:23.000 and developing

00:39:23.620 as we've seen

00:39:24.680 through the

00:39:25.040 abrahamic stories

00:39:26.080 after much

00:39:28.380 contemplation

00:39:29.160 struggling humanity

00:39:30.080 learns that

00:39:31.100 god's favor

00:39:31.860 could be gained

00:39:32.740 and his wrath

00:39:33.600 averted through

00:39:34.380 proper sacrifice

00:39:35.520 and also that

00:39:36.780 bloody murder

00:39:37.420 might be

00:39:37.860 motivated among

00:39:38.620 those unwilling

00:39:39.360 or unable

00:39:39.940 to succeed

00:39:40.600 in this manner

00:39:41.360 when engaging

00:39:44.980 in sacrifice

00:39:45.740 our forefathers

00:39:46.660 began to act out

00:39:47.700 what would be

00:39:48.220 considered a

00:39:48.820 proposition

00:39:49.240 if it were

00:39:49.960 stated in words

00:39:50.860 that something

00:39:52.640 better might be

00:39:53.560 attained in the

00:39:54.200 future by giving

00:39:55.040 up something of

00:39:55.860 value in the

00:39:56.500 present

00:39:56.880 recall if you

00:39:59.000 will that the

00:39:59.480 necessity for work

00:40:00.420 is one of the

00:40:01.000 curses placed by

00:40:01.960 god upon adam

00:40:03.400 and his

00:40:03.740 descendants

00:40:04.320 in consequence

00:40:05.720 of original

00:40:06.400 sin

00:40:06.800 adam's waking

00:40:10.300 to the fundamental

00:40:11.300 constraints of his

00:40:12.340 being

00:40:12.800 his vulnerability

00:40:13.880 his eventual

00:40:15.340 death

00:40:15.960 that's equivalent

00:40:17.240 to the discovery

00:40:18.200 of the future

00:40:19.100 the future

00:40:21.040 that's where you

00:40:23.060 go to die

00:40:23.720 hopefully not

00:40:25.660 too soon

00:40:26.380 your demise

00:40:27.900 might be staved

00:40:28.720 off through work

00:40:29.660 through the

00:40:30.800 sacrifice of

00:40:31.600 the now

00:40:32.280 to benefit

00:40:33.920 later

00:40:34.360 it is for this

00:40:36.440 reason among

00:40:37.020 others no doubt

00:40:37.860 that the concept

00:40:38.600 of sacrifice

00:40:39.220 is introduced

00:40:39.800 in the biblical

00:40:40.480 chapter immediately

00:40:41.440 following the

00:40:42.140 drama of the

00:40:42.740 fall

00:40:43.040 there's little

00:40:44.060 difference between

00:40:44.800 sacrifice and

00:40:45.660 work

00:40:46.000 they're also both

00:40:48.060 uniquely human

00:40:48.920 sometimes animals

00:40:51.800 act as if they're

00:40:52.620 working but

00:40:53.160 they're really only

00:40:54.360 following the

00:40:54.920 dictates of their

00:40:55.620 natures

00:40:56.140 beavers build

00:40:57.700 dams

00:40:58.220 they do so

00:40:59.060 because they're

00:40:59.620 beavers and

00:41:00.200 beavers build

00:41:00.840 dams

00:41:01.460 they don't

00:41:02.280 think

00:41:02.720 yeah

00:41:03.380 but i'd rather

00:41:04.460 be on a beach

00:41:05.180 in mexico

00:41:05.720 with my

00:41:06.200 girlfriend

00:41:06.620 while they're

00:41:07.220 doing it

00:41:07.900 prosaically

00:41:09.820 such sacrifice

00:41:11.020 work

00:41:11.920 is delay

00:41:13.620 of gratification

00:41:14.540 but that's a

00:41:15.340 very mundane

00:41:15.920 phrase

00:41:16.460 to describe

00:41:17.660 something of

00:41:18.240 soul-shattering

00:41:19.080 significance

00:41:19.860 the discovery

00:41:21.020 that gratification

00:41:21.960 could be delayed

00:41:22.920 was simultaneously

00:41:23.820 the discovery

00:41:24.620 of time

00:41:25.420 and with it

00:41:26.440 causality

00:41:27.200 long ago

00:41:28.900 in the dim

00:41:29.520 mists of time

00:41:30.320 we began to

00:41:31.020 realize that

00:41:32.020 reality was

00:41:32.720 structured as

00:41:33.520 if it could

00:41:34.100 be bargained

00:41:34.640 with

00:41:34.960 we learned that

00:41:36.620 behaving properly

00:41:37.500 now in the

00:41:38.240 present

00:41:38.660 regulating our

00:41:39.640 impulses

00:41:40.160 considering the

00:41:40.920 plight of others

00:41:41.600 could bring

00:41:42.320 rewards in the

00:41:43.060 future

00:41:43.440 in a time and

00:41:44.320 place that did

00:41:44.980 not yet exist

00:41:45.900 we began to

00:41:47.060 inhibit

00:41:47.440 control and

00:41:48.760 organize our

00:41:49.440 immediate impulses

00:41:50.460 so that we

00:41:51.620 could stop

00:41:52.060 interfering with

00:41:52.720 other people

00:41:53.280 and our

00:41:53.840 future selves

00:41:54.800 doing so

00:41:56.720 was indistinguishable

00:41:57.840 from organizing

00:41:59.300 society

00:42:00.000 the discovery

00:42:02.420 of the causal

00:42:03.080 relationship

00:42:03.700 between our

00:42:04.260 efforts today

00:42:05.040 and the

00:42:05.660 quality of

00:42:06.260 tomorrow

00:42:06.720 motivated the

00:42:08.000 social contract

00:42:08.900 the organization

00:42:09.720 that enables

00:42:10.480 today's work

00:42:11.180 to be stored

00:42:11.840 reliably

00:42:12.480 mostly in the

00:42:13.720 form of

00:42:14.100 promises from

00:42:14.820 others

00:42:15.180 understanding

00:42:17.780 is something

00:42:18.980 that's often

00:42:19.640 acted out

00:42:20.480 before it

00:42:21.040 can be

00:42:21.320 articulated

00:42:21.980 just as a

00:42:24.060 child acts

00:42:25.180 out what it

00:42:25.620 means to be

00:42:26.080 mother or

00:42:26.540 father before

00:42:27.440 being able to

00:42:28.020 give a spoken

00:42:28.660 account of what

00:42:29.420 those roles

00:42:29.960 mean

00:42:30.320 the idea

00:42:31.340 the act of

00:42:32.300 making a

00:42:32.840 ritual sacrifice

00:42:33.760 to god

00:42:34.580 was an early

00:42:35.720 and sophisticated

00:42:36.880 enactment of

00:42:38.000 the idea of

00:42:38.840 the usefulness

00:42:39.740 of delay

00:42:40.500 there's a long

00:42:42.280 conceptual journey

00:42:43.200 between merely

00:42:43.920 feasting hungrily

00:42:44.940 and learning to

00:42:46.060 set aside some

00:42:46.820 extra meat

00:42:47.520 smoked by the

00:42:48.360 fire for the

00:42:48.980 end of the

00:42:49.360 day or for

00:42:49.880 someone who

00:42:50.300 isn't present

00:42:50.960 it takes a

00:42:51.840 long time

00:42:52.600 to learn to

00:42:53.980 keep anything

00:42:54.520 later for

00:42:55.180 yourself

00:42:55.680 or to share

00:42:56.960 it with someone

00:42:57.520 else

00:42:57.880 and those are

00:42:58.540 very much the

00:42:59.100 same thing

00:42:59.720 as in the

00:43:00.660 former case

00:43:01.280 you're sharing

00:43:01.780 with your

00:43:02.140 future self

00:43:02.940 it's much

00:43:04.940 easier and far

00:43:05.640 more likely to

00:43:06.320 selfishly and

00:43:06.960 immediately wolf

00:43:07.780 down everything

00:43:08.440 in sight

00:43:08.980 there are similar

00:43:09.940 long journeys

00:43:10.640 between every

00:43:11.400 leap in

00:43:11.880 sophistication

00:43:12.720 with regards

00:43:13.600 to delay

00:43:14.320 and its

00:43:15.200 conceptualization

00:43:16.220 short-term

00:43:17.220 sharing

00:43:18.280 storing away

00:43:19.620 for the future

00:43:20.840 representation

00:43:21.820 of that storage

00:43:22.900 in the form

00:43:23.440 of records

00:43:23.960 and later

00:43:24.440 in the form

00:43:24.920 of currency

00:43:25.460 and ultimately

00:43:26.320 the saving

00:43:26.900 of money

00:43:27.380 in a bank

00:43:27.920 or other

00:43:28.300 institution

00:43:28.960 some

00:43:29.960 conceptualizations

00:43:31.040 had to serve

00:43:31.680 as intermediaries

00:43:32.620 or the full

00:43:33.740 range of our

00:43:34.320 practices and

00:43:35.040 ideas surrounding

00:43:35.820 sacrifice and

00:43:36.680 work and their

00:43:37.240 representation

00:43:37.760 could have

00:43:38.340 never emerged

00:43:39.120 our ancestors

00:43:40.800 acted out

00:43:41.960 a drama

00:43:42.660 a literary

00:43:44.380 fiction

00:43:44.960 they personified

00:43:46.720 the force

00:43:47.220 that governs

00:43:47.880 fate as a

00:43:48.660 spirit that

00:43:49.700 can be bargained

00:43:50.440 with traded

00:43:51.500 with as if it

00:43:52.740 were another

00:43:53.140 human being

00:43:53.800 and the amazing

00:43:54.560 thing is that

00:43:55.180 it worked

00:43:55.800 this was in

00:43:57.920 part because the

00:43:58.580 future is largely

00:43:59.580 composed of other

00:44:00.520 human beings

00:44:01.340 often precisely

00:44:02.560 those who have

00:44:03.160 watched and

00:44:03.700 evaluated and

00:44:04.780 appraised the

00:44:05.440 tiniest details of

00:44:06.520 your past

00:44:07.000 behavior

00:44:07.500 it's not very

00:44:09.020 far from that

00:44:09.700 to God

00:44:10.280 sitting above

00:44:11.080 on high

00:44:12.000 tracking your

00:44:13.060 every move

00:44:13.820 and writing it

00:44:14.840 down for further

00:44:15.700 reference in a

00:44:16.500 big book

00:44:17.100 here's a

00:44:18.280 productive

00:44:18.700 symbolic idea

00:44:19.940 the future

00:44:21.600 is a

00:44:22.840 judgmental

00:44:23.560 father

00:44:24.020 that's a good

00:44:26.420 start

00:44:26.880 but two

00:44:29.560 additional

00:44:30.120 archetypal

00:44:31.400 foundational

00:44:32.000 questions arose

00:44:33.000 because of the

00:44:33.620 discovery of

00:44:34.280 sacrifice of

00:44:35.180 work

00:44:35.480 both have to

00:44:36.700 do with the

00:44:37.160 ultimate extension

00:44:37.920 of the logic

00:44:38.760 of work

00:44:39.280 which is

00:44:40.240 sacrifice now

00:44:42.700 to gain

00:44:43.500 later

00:44:43.940 first question

00:44:46.640 what must be

00:44:49.700 sacrificed

00:44:50.440 small sacrifices

00:44:53.660 might be

00:44:54.280 sufficient to

00:44:54.900 small

00:44:55.280 to solve

00:44:56.060 small

00:44:56.980 singular

00:44:57.880 problems

00:44:58.500 but it's

00:44:59.480 possible

00:45:00.000 that larger

00:45:01.000 more comprehensive

00:45:01.920 sacrifices

00:45:02.660 might solve

00:45:03.780 an array of

00:45:04.420 large and

00:45:04.960 complex problems

00:45:05.780 all at the

00:45:06.280 same time

00:45:06.860 that's harder

00:45:08.380 but it might

00:45:09.740 be better

00:45:10.280 adapting

00:45:11.060 to the

00:45:11.820 necessary

00:45:12.360 discipline

00:45:12.880 of medical

00:45:13.380 school

00:45:13.820 for example

00:45:14.500 will fatally

00:45:15.740 interfere with

00:45:16.480 the licentious

00:45:17.220 lifestyle of a

00:45:18.140 hardcore

00:45:18.560 undergraduate

00:45:19.260 party animal

00:45:20.180 giving that

00:45:21.540 up is a

00:45:22.080 sacrifice

00:45:22.560 but a

00:45:23.340 physician

00:45:23.740 can

00:45:24.400 to quote

00:45:25.380 George W

00:45:26.340 really put

00:45:27.480 food on

00:45:28.080 his family

00:45:28.780 that's a

00:45:34.000 lot of

00:45:34.300 trouble

00:45:34.560 dispensed with

00:45:35.340 over a

00:45:35.740 very long

00:45:36.220 period of

00:45:36.740 time

00:45:37.080 so

00:45:38.740 sacrifices

00:45:39.380 are necessary

00:45:40.220 to improve

00:45:41.280 the future

00:45:41.820 and larger

00:45:43.440 sacrifices

00:45:44.160 can be

00:45:45.140 better

00:45:45.480 second question

00:45:47.320 introduction

00:45:48.220 we've already

00:45:49.200 established the

00:45:49.880 basic principle

00:45:50.620 sacrifice

00:45:51.520 will improve

00:45:52.480 the future

00:45:53.060 but what's

00:45:54.660 implied by

00:45:55.220 that

00:45:55.520 in the

00:45:56.000 most extreme

00:45:57.260 and final

00:45:57.840 of cases

00:45:58.480 where does

00:46:00.340 that basic

00:46:00.900 principle

00:46:01.280 find its

00:46:01.800 limits

00:46:02.160 we must

00:46:03.460 ask

00:46:03.940 to begin

00:46:04.380 with what

00:46:05.480 would be

00:46:05.740 the largest

00:46:06.300 most

00:46:06.740 effective

00:46:07.340 most

00:46:08.360 pleasing

00:46:08.860 of all

00:46:09.900 possible

00:46:10.460 sacrifices

00:46:11.240 and then

00:46:12.720 how good

00:46:13.200 might the

00:46:13.580 best possible

00:46:14.180 future be

00:46:14.880 if the

00:46:15.580 most effective

00:46:16.980 possible

00:46:17.580 sacrifice

00:46:18.260 could be

00:46:18.740 made

00:46:19.140 God

00:46:20.120 and

00:46:21.140 God

00:46:22.040 the biblical

00:46:22.440 story of

00:46:23.000 Cain and

00:46:23.340 Abel

00:46:23.620 Adam and

00:46:24.360 Eve's

00:46:24.660 sons

00:46:24.980 immediately

00:46:25.860 follows the

00:46:26.540 story of

00:46:27.420 the expulsion

00:46:28.040 from paradise

00:46:28.820 as mentioned

00:46:29.460 previously

00:46:30.060 Cain and

00:46:34.220 Abel

00:46:34.440 are really

00:46:35.560 the first

00:46:35.980 humans

00:46:36.380 since their

00:46:38.180 parents were

00:46:39.180 made directly

00:46:39.720 by God

00:46:40.260 and not

00:46:40.580 born in the

00:46:41.120 standard manner

00:46:41.720 Cain and

00:46:42.440 Abel live in

00:46:43.060 history

00:46:43.620 not in

00:46:44.380 Eden

00:46:44.640 they must

00:46:45.580 work

00:46:45.900 they must

00:46:46.380 make sacrifices

00:46:47.260 to please

00:46:47.780 God

00:46:48.120 and they

00:46:48.400 do so

00:46:48.860 with altar

00:46:49.400 and proper

00:46:49.960 ritual

00:46:50.360 but things

00:46:51.080 get complicated

00:46:51.840 Abel's

00:46:53.040 offerings

00:46:53.400 please God

00:46:54.080 but Cain's

00:46:54.660 do not

00:46:55.140 Abel is

00:46:56.340 rewarded

00:46:56.800 many times

00:46:57.460 over

00:46:57.760 but Cain

00:46:58.460 is not

00:46:59.040 it's not

00:46:59.940 precisely

00:47:00.640 clear why

00:47:01.360 although the

00:47:01.780 text strongly

00:47:02.320 hints that

00:47:02.780 Cain's heart

00:47:03.300 is just

00:47:03.660 not in it

00:47:04.200 maybe the

00:47:04.840 quality of

00:47:05.340 what Cain

00:47:05.740 put forward

00:47:06.260 was low

00:47:06.800 maybe his

00:47:07.960 spirit

00:47:08.380 was begrudging

00:47:09.360 or maybe

00:47:10.460 God was

00:47:10.940 just feeling

00:47:11.440 crabby

00:47:12.000 and all

00:47:13.200 of this

00:47:13.460 is realistic

00:47:14.140 including

00:47:14.780 the text's

00:47:15.560 vagueness

00:47:15.980 of explanation

00:47:16.700 not all

00:47:17.560 sacrifices

00:47:18.140 are of

00:47:18.620 equal

00:47:18.880 quality

00:47:19.400 furthermore

00:47:20.880 it often

00:47:21.540 appears that

00:47:22.080 sacrifices

00:47:22.660 of apparently

00:47:23.340 high quality

00:47:24.020 are sometimes

00:47:25.060 not rewarded

00:47:25.760 with a better

00:47:26.280 future

00:47:26.680 and it's

00:47:26.980 not clear

00:47:27.440 why

00:47:27.820 why isn't

00:47:28.640 God

00:47:28.920 happy

00:47:29.380 what would

00:47:30.860 have to

00:47:31.220 change

00:47:31.700 to make

00:47:32.300 him so

00:47:32.820 these are

00:47:34.220 difficult

00:47:34.580 questions

00:47:35.040 and everyone

00:47:35.780 asks them

00:47:36.480 all the

00:47:37.020 time

00:47:37.380 even if

00:47:37.900 they don't

00:47:38.360 notice

00:47:38.780 asking such

00:47:39.880 questions

00:47:40.360 is indistinguishable

00:47:41.440 from thinking

00:47:42.220 the realization

00:47:44.940 that pleasure

00:47:45.640 could be

00:47:46.040 usefully

00:47:46.440 forestalled

00:47:47.020 donned with

00:47:47.540 a difficulty

00:47:48.080 that's almost

00:47:48.640 impossible

00:47:49.180 to overstate

00:47:50.020 such a realization

00:47:52.520 runs absolutely

00:47:54.540 contrary

00:47:55.160 to our

00:47:55.580 ancient

00:47:56.060 fundamental

00:47:57.100 animal instincts

00:47:57.960 which demand

00:47:58.660 immediate

00:47:59.040 satisfaction

00:47:59.760 particularly

00:48:00.940 under conditions

00:48:01.800 of deprivation

00:48:02.560 which are

00:48:02.980 both inevitable

00:48:03.940 and commonplace

00:48:04.840 and to complicate

00:48:05.900 the matter

00:48:06.360 such delay

00:48:07.620 only becomes

00:48:08.380 useful

00:48:08.800 when civilization

00:48:09.600 has stabilized

00:48:10.560 itself

00:48:11.160 enough

00:48:11.520 to guarantee

00:48:12.280 the existence

00:48:12.940 of the delayed

00:48:13.700 reward

00:48:14.200 if everything

00:48:15.060 you save

00:48:15.580 will be destroyed

00:48:16.420 or worse

00:48:17.140 stolen

00:48:17.620 there's no point

00:48:18.260 saving

00:48:18.840 it's for this

00:48:20.640 reason that a wolf

00:48:21.480 will down 20 pounds

00:48:22.580 of raw meat

00:48:23.240 in a single meal

00:48:24.200 he isn't thinking

00:48:25.420 man I hate it

00:48:26.460 when I binge

00:48:27.200 I should save

00:48:28.640 some of this

00:48:29.180 for next week

00:48:30.020 here's a developmental

00:48:32.080 progression

00:48:32.720 from animal

00:48:33.480 to human

00:48:33.980 it's wrong

00:48:35.100 no doubt

00:48:35.560 in the details

00:48:36.240 but it's

00:48:36.920 sufficiently

00:48:37.320 correct

00:48:37.760 for our purposes

00:48:38.520 in theme

00:48:39.140 first

00:48:40.200 there's excess

00:48:41.400 food

00:48:41.920 large carcasses

00:48:43.440 mammoths

00:48:43.980 or other massive

00:48:44.840 herbivores

00:48:45.440 might provide that

00:48:46.460 weigh a lot

00:48:47.200 of mammoths

00:48:47.820 maybe all

00:48:48.900 of them

00:48:49.280 with a large

00:48:50.760 animal

00:48:51.120 there's some

00:48:51.540 left for later

00:48:52.520 after a kill

00:48:53.460 that's accidental

00:48:55.560 at first

00:48:56.660 but eventually

00:48:57.580 the utility

00:48:58.780 of

00:48:59.360 for later

00:49:00.580 starts to be

00:49:01.680 appreciated

00:49:02.320 some provisional

00:49:03.720 notion of

00:49:04.300 sacrifice

00:49:04.760 develops at

00:49:05.440 the same

00:49:05.780 time

00:49:06.160 if I leave

00:49:07.040 some now

00:49:07.640 even if I

00:49:09.100 want it now

00:49:09.800 I won't have

00:49:10.960 to be hungry

00:49:11.420 later

00:49:11.820 that provisional

00:49:13.600 notion then

00:49:14.720 develops to the

00:49:15.400 next level

00:49:15.940 if I leave

00:49:16.920 some for later

00:49:17.540 I won't have

00:49:18.740 to go hungry

00:49:19.260 and neither

00:49:20.520 will those I

00:49:21.000 care for

00:49:21.480 and then to

00:49:22.100 the next

00:49:22.580 level

00:49:23.020 I can't

00:49:24.340 possibly eat

00:49:25.120 all this

00:49:25.520 mammoth

00:49:25.900 but I can't

00:49:26.600 store the rest

00:49:27.260 for too long

00:49:27.920 either

00:49:28.260 maybe I should

00:49:29.880 feed some

00:49:30.300 to other people

00:49:30.960 maybe they'll

00:49:32.200 remember

00:49:32.640 and feed me

00:49:33.800 some of their

00:49:34.300 mammoth

00:49:34.720 when they have

00:49:35.280 some and I

00:49:35.760 have none

00:49:36.300 then I'll get

00:49:37.500 some mammoth

00:49:38.020 now

00:49:38.400 and some

00:49:39.420 mammoth

00:49:39.780 later

00:49:40.160 that's a good

00:49:41.380 deal

00:49:41.780 and maybe

00:49:43.560 those I'm

00:49:44.020 sharing with

00:49:44.540 will come to

00:49:45.020 trust me

00:49:45.540 more generally

00:49:46.180 maybe then

00:49:47.500 we could trade

00:49:48.100 forever

00:49:48.520 in such a

00:49:50.700 manner

00:49:51.040 mammoth

00:49:52.120 becomes

00:49:52.540 future mammoth

00:49:53.680 and future

00:49:54.940 mammoth

00:49:55.400 becomes

00:49:55.860 personal

00:49:56.460 reputation

00:49:57.220 that's the

00:49:58.900 emergence of

00:49:59.460 the social

00:49:59.880 contract

00:50:00.540 to share

00:50:02.300 does not mean

00:50:03.380 to give away

00:50:03.880 something you

00:50:04.420 value

00:50:04.760 and get

00:50:05.100 nothing back

00:50:05.920 that's only

00:50:06.820 instead

00:50:07.220 what every

00:50:07.660 child

00:50:08.020 who refuses

00:50:08.920 to share

00:50:09.540 is afraid

00:50:10.460 that it

00:50:10.840 means

00:50:11.240 to share

00:50:11.880 means

00:50:12.180 properly

00:50:12.640 to initiate

00:50:13.280 the process

00:50:13.900 of trade

00:50:14.560 a child

00:50:16.980 who can't

00:50:17.440 share

00:50:17.740 who can't

00:50:18.900 trade

00:50:19.280 can't have

00:50:20.200 any friends

00:50:20.800 because having

00:50:22.040 friends is a

00:50:22.680 form of trade

00:50:23.460 Benjamin Franklin

00:50:24.880 once suggested

00:50:25.640 that a newcomer

00:50:26.440 to a neighborhood

00:50:27.040 ask a new

00:50:28.360 neighbor

00:50:28.720 to do

00:50:29.920 him or her

00:50:30.400 a favor

00:50:30.920 citing

00:50:32.140 an old

00:50:32.540 maxim

00:50:32.980 he that

00:50:33.900 has once

00:50:34.380 done you

00:50:34.780 a kindness

00:50:35.280 will be

00:50:36.000 more ready

00:50:36.440 to do

00:50:36.800 you another

00:50:37.300 than he

00:50:38.200 whom you

00:50:38.840 yourself

00:50:39.400 have obliged

00:50:40.200 in Franklin's

00:50:41.260 opinion

00:50:41.600 asking

00:50:42.020 something

00:50:42.420 for someone

00:50:43.080 asking

00:50:43.960 someone

00:50:44.420 for something

00:50:45.100 not too

00:50:45.900 extreme

00:50:46.400 obviously

00:50:47.000 was the

00:50:47.760 most useful

00:50:48.780 and immediate

00:50:49.360 invitation

00:50:49.960 to social

00:50:50.500 interaction

00:50:51.080 such asking

00:50:52.100 allowed the

00:50:52.580 neighbor to

00:50:53.000 show him

00:50:53.440 or herself

00:50:53.900 as a good

00:50:54.400 person

00:50:54.760 at first

00:50:55.200 encounter

00:50:55.680 it also

00:50:57.000 meant the

00:50:57.500 neighbor

00:50:57.720 could now

00:50:58.160 ask the

00:50:58.560 newcomer

00:50:58.980 for a

00:50:59.320 favor

00:50:59.600 in return

00:51:00.320 because of

00:51:01.160 the debt

00:51:01.500 incurred

00:51:02.100 in that

00:51:02.880 manner

00:51:03.140 both parties

00:51:03.820 could overcome

00:51:04.440 their natural

00:51:05.060 hesitancy

00:51:05.760 and mutual

00:51:06.660 fear of

00:51:07.160 the stranger

00:51:07.700 it's better

00:51:10.920 to have

00:51:11.240 something

00:51:11.620 rather than

00:51:12.160 nothing

00:51:12.460 it's better

00:51:15.580 yet

00:51:15.920 to generously

00:51:17.560 share the

00:51:18.140 something you

00:51:18.620 have

00:51:19.000 it's even

00:51:19.740 better than

00:51:20.240 that however

00:51:20.840 to become

00:51:21.340 widely known

00:51:22.260 for generous

00:51:23.000 sharing

00:51:23.620 that's

00:51:24.420 something

00:51:24.700 that lasts

00:51:25.480 that's

00:51:26.280 something

00:51:26.600 that's

00:51:26.880 reliable

00:51:27.440 and at

00:51:28.640 this point

00:51:29.080 in

00:51:29.240 abstraction

00:51:29.740 we can

00:51:30.180 observe

00:51:30.580 how the

00:51:31.280 groundwork

00:51:31.860 for the

00:51:32.180 conceptions

00:51:32.840 of reliable

00:51:33.580 honest

00:51:34.140 and generous

00:51:34.780 have been

00:51:35.220 laid

00:51:35.580 the basis

00:51:36.680 for an

00:51:37.100 articulated

00:51:37.620 morality

00:51:38.160 has been

00:51:38.580 put in

00:51:38.920 place

00:51:39.260 the

00:51:39.720 productive

00:51:40.240 truthful

00:51:41.040 sharer

00:51:41.720 is the

00:51:42.400 prototype

00:51:42.820 for the

00:51:43.340 good

00:51:43.540 citizen

00:51:44.000 and the

00:51:44.420 good

00:51:44.600 man

00:51:45.040 we can

00:51:46.180 see in

00:51:46.520 this

00:51:46.720 manner

00:51:47.040 how

00:51:47.480 from

00:51:48.160 the

00:51:48.380 simple

00:51:48.680 notion

00:51:49.200 that

00:51:49.840 leftovers

00:51:50.500 are a

00:51:51.020 good

00:51:51.180 idea

00:51:51.680 the

00:51:52.320 highest

00:51:52.660 moral

00:51:53.040 principles

00:51:53.520 might

00:51:53.920 emerge

00:51:54.420 it's

00:51:56.540 as if

00:51:56.780 something

00:51:57.080 like

00:51:57.360 this

00:51:57.760 happened

00:51:58.560 as

00:51:58.780 humanity

00:51:59.200 developed

00:51:59.780 first

00:52:04.500 were the

00:52:04.840 endless

00:52:05.100 tens or

00:52:05.620 hundreds of

00:52:06.100 thousands

00:52:06.400 of years

00:52:06.880 prior to

00:52:07.440 the

00:52:07.580 emergence

00:52:07.940 of

00:52:08.220 written

00:52:08.420 history

00:52:08.840 and

00:52:09.060 drama

00:52:09.380 during

00:52:11.120 this

00:52:11.380 time

00:52:11.680 the

00:52:11.840 twin

00:52:12.060 practices

00:52:12.580 of

00:52:12.840 delay

00:52:13.280 and

00:52:13.560 exchange

00:52:14.120 began

00:52:14.460 to

00:52:14.720 emerge

00:52:15.180 slowly

00:52:15.700 and

00:52:15.980 painfully

00:52:16.500 then

00:52:18.340 they

00:52:18.520 became

00:52:18.820 represented

00:52:19.420 in

00:52:19.660 metaphorical

00:52:20.260 abstraction

00:52:20.800 as

00:52:21.520 rituals

00:52:22.060 and

00:52:22.380 tales

00:52:22.780 of

00:52:23.020 sacrifice

00:52:23.740 told

00:52:24.620 in a

00:52:24.900 manner

00:52:25.160 such

00:52:25.500 as

00:52:25.680 this

00:52:25.980 it's

00:52:27.760 as

00:52:28.080 as

00:52:28.100 if

00:52:28.520 there's

00:52:29.560 a

00:52:29.680 powerful

00:52:30.060 figure

00:52:30.480 in

00:52:30.680 the

00:52:30.820 sky

00:52:31.180 who

00:52:31.940 sees

00:52:32.260 all

00:52:32.720 and

00:52:33.500 is

00:52:33.660 judging

00:52:33.980 you

00:52:34.340 giving

00:52:35.780 up

00:52:36.120 something

00:52:36.460 you

00:52:36.680 value

00:52:37.040 seems

00:52:37.640 to

00:52:37.800 make

00:52:37.980 him

00:52:38.100 happy

00:52:38.540 and

00:52:39.260 you

00:52:39.380 want

00:52:39.560 to

00:52:39.660 make

00:52:39.840 him

00:52:39.960 happy

00:52:40.380 because

00:52:41.440 all

00:52:41.660 hell

00:52:41.860 breaks

00:52:42.220 loose

00:52:42.480 if

00:52:42.660 you

00:52:42.780 don't

00:52:43.220 so

00:52:45.020 practice

00:52:45.520 sacrificing

00:52:46.300 and

00:52:46.980 sharing

00:52:47.520 until

00:52:48.280 you

00:52:48.440 become

00:52:48.720 expert

00:52:49.360 at

00:52:49.680 it

00:52:49.860 and

00:52:50.400 things

00:52:50.640 will

00:52:50.800 go

00:52:50.940 well

00:52:51.180 for

00:52:51.380 you

00:52:51.680 no

00:52:54.060 one

00:52:54.220 said

00:52:54.500 any

00:52:54.720 of

00:52:54.860 this

00:52:55.060 at

00:52:55.200 least

00:52:55.360 not

00:52:55.580 so

00:52:55.780 plainly

00:52:56.180 and

00:52:56.280 directly

00:52:56.660 but

00:52:57.160 it

00:52:57.240 was

00:52:57.360 implicit

00:52:57.760 in

00:52:58.000 the

00:52:58.120 practice

00:52:58.480 and

00:52:58.700 then

00:52:58.840 in

00:52:58.960 the

00:52:59.100 stories

00:52:59.460 action

00:53:00.320 came

00:53:00.740 first

00:53:01.280 as

00:53:02.220 it

00:53:02.340 had

00:53:02.740 to

00:53:03.040 as

00:53:04.060 the

00:53:04.220 animals

00:53:04.700 we

00:53:04.960 once

00:53:05.280 were

00:53:05.540 could

00:53:05.780 act

00:53:06.200 but

00:53:06.420 could

00:53:06.740 not

00:53:06.980 think

00:53:07.400 implicit

00:53:08.740 unrecognized

00:53:09.760 value

00:53:10.140 came

00:53:10.520 first

00:53:11.160 as

00:53:12.160 the

00:53:12.320 actions

00:53:12.740 that

00:53:12.980 preceded

00:53:13.560 thought

00:53:14.100 embodied

00:53:16.600 value

00:53:17.160 but

00:53:17.860 did not

00:53:18.220 make

00:53:18.440 that

00:53:18.640 value

00:53:18.980 explicit

00:53:19.540 people

00:53:20.800 watched

00:53:21.220 the

00:53:21.440 successful

00:53:21.960 succeed

00:53:22.620 and

00:53:23.200 the

00:53:23.360 unsuccessful

00:53:23.860 fail

00:53:24.660 for

00:53:25.240 thousands

00:53:25.780 and

00:53:26.100 thousands

00:53:26.460 of

00:53:26.740 years

00:53:27.080 we

00:53:27.940 thought

00:53:28.260 it

00:53:28.400 over

00:53:28.680 and we

00:53:29.640 drew

00:53:29.820 a

00:53:29.980 conclusion

00:53:30.500 the

00:53:31.620 successful

00:53:32.220 among us

00:53:33.020 delay

00:53:33.620 gratification

00:53:34.820 the

00:53:35.400 successful

00:53:36.020 among us

00:53:36.660 bargain

00:53:37.160 with the

00:53:37.700 future

00:53:38.100 a great

00:53:39.080 idea

00:53:39.400 began to

00:53:39.920 emerge

00:53:40.320 taking ever

00:53:40.920 more clearly

00:53:41.440 articulated

00:53:42.040 form

00:53:42.500 in ever

00:53:43.220 more

00:53:43.520 clearly

00:53:44.140 articulated

00:53:44.860 stories

00:53:45.460 what's

00:53:47.140 the difference

00:53:47.660 between the

00:53:48.220 successful

00:53:48.660 and the

00:53:49.040 unsuccessful

00:53:49.700 the

00:53:51.340 successful

00:53:51.920 sacrifice

00:53:52.800 things

00:53:54.200 get better

00:53:54.820 as the

00:53:55.300 successful

00:53:55.860 practice

00:53:56.520 their

00:53:56.840 sacrifices

00:53:57.560 the

00:53:58.760 questions

00:53:59.160 become

00:53:59.580 increasingly

00:54:00.240 precise

00:54:00.820 and

00:54:01.160 simultaneously

00:54:01.740 broader

00:54:02.760 what's

00:54:03.360 the

00:54:03.520 greatest

00:54:03.800 possible

00:54:04.360 sacrifice

00:54:05.060 for the

00:54:05.680 greatest

00:54:06.060 possible

00:54:06.680 good

00:54:07.080 and the

00:54:08.240 answers

00:54:08.560 become

00:54:08.940 increasingly

00:54:09.520 deeper

00:54:09.960 and

00:54:10.240 profound

00:54:10.680 the

00:54:12.900 god of

00:54:13.260 western

00:54:13.580 tradition

00:54:13.960 like so

00:54:14.400 many gods

00:54:14.920 requires

00:54:15.380 sacrifice

00:54:15.940 we've

00:54:16.360 already

00:54:16.640 examined

00:54:17.120 why

00:54:17.520 but

00:54:17.740 sometimes

00:54:18.220 he goes

00:54:18.660 even

00:54:18.920 further

00:54:19.340 he demands

00:54:20.580 not only

00:54:21.140 sacrifice

00:54:21.940 but the

00:54:22.980 sacrifice

00:54:23.420 of

00:54:23.700 precisely

00:54:24.180 what

00:54:24.480 is

00:54:24.640 loved

00:54:24.920 best

00:54:25.460 this

00:54:25.960 is

00:54:26.100 most

00:54:26.380 starkly

00:54:27.040 portrayed

00:54:27.500 and

00:54:28.100 most

00:54:28.320 confusingly

00:54:29.100 evident

00:54:29.400 in the

00:54:30.100 story

00:54:30.420 of

00:54:30.780 Abraham

00:54:31.500 and

00:54:31.840 Isaac

00:54:32.300 Abraham

00:54:33.440 beloved

00:54:33.920 of

00:54:34.140 God

00:54:34.420 long

00:54:34.680 wanted

00:54:35.020 a son

00:54:35.440 and

00:54:35.840 God

00:54:36.080 promised

00:54:36.500 him

00:54:36.640 exactly

00:54:37.040 that

00:54:37.340 after

00:54:37.600 many

00:54:37.880 delays

00:54:38.380 and

00:54:38.860 under

00:54:39.060 the

00:54:39.220 imparently

00:54:39.780 impossible

00:54:40.440 conditions

00:54:41.020 of

00:54:41.220 old

00:54:41.560 age

00:54:41.900 and

00:54:42.120 a

00:54:42.280 long

00:54:42.540 barren

00:54:42.920 wife

00:54:43.340 but

00:54:46.380 not

00:54:46.560 so

00:54:46.760 long

00:54:46.960 afterward

00:54:47.440 when

00:54:48.240 the

00:54:48.380 miraculously

00:54:49.060 born

00:54:49.460 Isaac

00:54:49.820 is still

00:54:50.260 a

00:54:50.420 child

00:54:50.760 God

00:54:51.720 turns

00:54:52.040 around

00:54:52.440 and

00:54:52.700 in

00:54:52.800 apparently

00:54:53.240 barbaric

00:54:53.880 fashion

00:54:54.300 demands

00:54:54.860 that his

00:54:55.620 faithful

00:54:55.980 servant

00:54:56.420 offer his

00:54:57.040 son

00:54:57.300 as a

00:54:57.640 sacrifice

00:54:58.140 the story

00:54:59.540 ends

00:54:59.820 happily

00:55:00.260 God

00:55:01.520 sends

00:55:01.820 an angel

00:55:02.300 to

00:55:03.060 to stay

00:55:03.360 to stay

00:55:03.380 Abraham's

00:55:04.000 obedient

00:55:04.360 hand

00:55:04.860 and

00:55:05.280 accepts

00:55:05.640 a

00:55:05.860 ram

00:55:06.180 in

00:55:06.340 Isaac's

00:55:06.860 stead

00:55:07.180 that's

00:55:07.840 a

00:55:07.920 good

00:55:08.060 thing

00:55:08.500 but

00:55:09.780 doesn't

00:55:10.000 really

00:55:10.200 address

00:55:10.580 the

00:55:10.760 issue

00:55:11.020 at

00:55:11.200 hand

00:55:11.560 why

00:55:12.200 was

00:55:12.580 God's

00:55:13.020 going

00:55:13.260 further

00:55:13.640 necessary

00:55:14.260 why

00:55:15.140 does

00:55:15.360 he

00:55:15.660 why

00:55:17.060 does

00:55:17.200 life

00:55:17.660 impose

00:55:18.800 such

00:55:19.120 demands

00:55:19.720 we'll

00:55:24.380 start

00:55:24.600 our

00:55:24.740 analysis

00:55:25.120 with

00:55:25.380 the

00:55:25.520 truism

00:55:25.960 stark

00:55:28.420 self

00:55:30.260 evident

00:55:30.620 and

00:55:31.180 understated

00:55:31.920 sometimes

00:55:33.800 things

00:55:34.440 do not

00:55:34.920 go well

00:55:35.520 that

00:55:37.220 seems

00:55:37.560 to have

00:55:38.240 much

00:55:38.500 to do

00:55:38.800 with

00:55:38.960 the

00:55:39.100 terrible

00:55:39.400 nature

00:55:39.760 of

00:55:39.960 the

00:55:40.080 world

00:55:40.360 with

00:55:40.800 its

00:55:40.960 plagues

00:55:41.340 and

00:55:41.500 its

00:55:41.660 famines

00:55:42.120 and

00:55:42.300 its

00:55:42.480 tyrannies

00:55:43.000 and

00:55:43.140 its

00:55:43.300 betrayals

00:55:43.840 but

00:55:44.420 here's

00:55:44.720 the

00:55:44.880 rub

00:55:45.240 sometimes

00:55:46.400 when

00:55:46.780 things

00:55:47.040 are

00:55:47.160 not

00:55:47.340 going

00:55:47.600 well

00:55:47.820 it's

00:55:48.020 not

00:55:48.180 the

00:55:48.340 world

00:55:48.580 that

00:55:48.740 it's

00:55:48.900 the

00:55:49.040 cause

00:55:49.420 the

00:55:50.300 cause

00:55:50.600 is

00:55:50.840 instead

00:55:51.320 that

00:55:51.660 which

00:55:51.900 is

00:55:52.040 most

00:55:52.340 valued

00:55:52.840 why

00:55:54.060 because

00:55:56.160 the

00:55:56.340 world

00:55:56.540 is

00:55:56.720 revealed

00:55:57.100 to

00:55:57.300 an

00:55:57.460 interminate

00:55:58.000 degree

00:55:58.320 through

00:55:58.600 the

00:55:58.760 template

00:55:59.140 of

00:55:59.360 your

00:55:59.500 values

00:56:00.000 if

00:56:00.880 the

00:56:01.000 world

00:56:01.200 you

00:56:01.340 are

00:56:01.460 seeing

00:56:01.920 is

00:56:03.480 not

00:56:03.640 the

00:56:03.780 world

00:56:03.980 you

00:56:04.140 want

00:56:04.620 therefore

00:56:05.240 it's

01:00:19.880 ever

01:00:20.200 desperate

01:00:21.220 world

01:00:21.740 on

01:00:36.760 on

01:00:36.780 the

01:00:36.900 third

01:00:37.140 day

01:00:37.360 Abraham

01:00:37.680 lifted

01:00:38.120 up

01:00:38.300 his

01:00:38.460 eyes

01:00:38.700 and

01:00:38.880 saw

01:00:39.100 the

01:00:39.260 place

01:00:39.560 far

01:00:39.900 off

01:00:40.340 it's

01:00:42.240 not

01:00:42.420 an

01:00:42.600 accident

01:00:42.960 also

01:00:43.540 that

01:00:43.760 it's

01:00:43.920 in

01:00:44.020 a

01:00:44.140 mountain

01:00:44.420 right

01:00:44.760 because

01:00:45.100 a

01:00:45.980 mountain

01:00:46.180 is

01:00:46.300 something

01:00:46.500 you

01:00:46.660 have

01:00:46.820 to

01:00:46.940 climb

01:00:47.280 and

01:00:47.440 you

01:00:47.540 have

01:00:47.680 to

01:00:47.920 climb

01:00:48.360 to

01:00:48.500 the

01:00:48.620 pinnacle

01:00:48.940 of

01:00:49.100 a

01:00:49.220 mountain

01:00:49.460 and

01:00:49.700 the

01:00:50.200 mountain

01:00:50.460 is

01:00:50.660 up

01:00:51.020 right

01:00:51.260 and

01:00:51.360 the

01:00:51.460 mountain

01:00:51.660 stretches

01:00:52.080 up

01:00:52.320 to

01:00:52.440 heaven

01:00:52.700 and

01:00:52.940 it's

01:00:53.420 a

01:00:53.520 long

01:00:53.720 journey

01:00:54.120 to

01:00:54.440 specify

01:00:54.940 the

01:00:55.220 right

01:00:55.480 place

01:00:56.200 on

01:00:56.380 the

01:00:56.500 highest

01:00:56.820 pinnacle

01:00:57.320 and

01:00:58.200 that's

01:00:59.060 symbolic

01:00:59.720 because

01:01:00.100 of course

01:01:00.460 it's

01:01:00.640 a pinnacle

01:01:01.120 that

01:01:01.780 you're

01:01:02.140 always

01:01:02.380 trying

01:01:02.600 to

01:01:02.740 reach

01:01:02.960 just

01:01:03.200 like

01:01:03.420 you're

01:01:03.560 always

01:01:03.720 trying

01:01:03.920 to

01:01:04.040 aim

01:01:04.320 you're

01:01:04.580 always

01:01:04.760 trying

01:01:04.940 to

01:01:05.060 climb

01:01:05.340 upward

01:01:05.740 at

01:01:06.040 least

01:01:06.400 that's

01:01:06.760 the

01:01:07.100 theory

01:01:07.400 depends

01:01:08.120 to

01:01:08.320 some

01:01:08.520 degree

01:01:08.780 of

01:01:08.960 course

01:01:09.160 on

01:01:09.360 your

01:01:09.480 definition

01:01:09.960 of

01:01:10.180 upward

01:01:10.580 and

01:01:12.440 Abraham

01:01:12.700 said

01:01:13.060 to

01:01:15.220 ass

01:01:15.560 and

01:01:15.720 I

01:01:15.880 and

01:01:16.300 the

01:01:16.420 lad

01:01:16.600 will

01:01:16.760 go

01:01:16.920 yonder

01:01:17.240 and

01:01:17.420 worship

01:01:17.700 and

01:01:17.940 come

01:01:18.120 to

01:01:18.260 you

01:01:18.420 again

01:01:18.740 and

01:01:20.160 Abraham

01:01:20.480 took

01:01:21.440 the

01:01:21.600 wood

01:01:21.780 of

01:01:21.900 the

01:02:42.200 thou

01:02:42.620 not

01:02:42.960 withheld

01:02:43.460 thy

01:02:43.720 son

01:02:44.140 thine

01:02:44.740 only

01:02:45.000 son

01:02:45.320 from

01:02:45.580 me

01:02:45.860 when I

01:02:47.440 was answering

01:02:48.000 the questions

01:02:48.560 last night

01:02:49.100 at this

01:02:49.420 Q&A

01:02:49.900 this guy

01:02:50.500 asked me

01:02:50.940 this question

01:02:51.540 he said

01:02:52.000 that he had

01:02:52.500 parents

01:02:52.980 who were

01:02:53.440 desperate

01:02:54.420 anti-social

01:02:56.060 alcoholic

01:02:56.860 addicted

01:02:57.520 friendless

01:02:58.960 and that

01:03:00.140 they

01:03:02.960 they

01:03:02.980 didn't

01:03:03.180 want

01:03:03.400 him

01:03:03.540 to

01:03:03.680 leave

01:03:03.920 their

01:03:04.120 home

01:03:04.360 he

01:03:05.460 was

01:03:05.640 the

01:03:05.800 only

01:03:06.000 relationship

01:03:06.540 they

01:03:06.820 had

01:03:07.180 that

01:03:07.580 that

01:03:10.400 was

01:03:10.620 of

01:03:10.880 he

01:03:12.180 was

01:03:12.360 the

01:03:12.500 only

01:03:12.680 relationship

01:03:13.240 they

01:03:13.560 had

01:03:13.860 and he

01:03:14.120 asked

01:03:14.400 what

01:03:14.600 he

01:03:14.800 should

01:03:14.980 do

01:03:15.260 and

01:03:17.760 I

01:03:17.900 told

01:03:18.120 him

01:03:18.240 that

01:03:18.380 he

01:03:18.500 should

01:03:18.680 leave

01:03:19.040 and

01:03:21.620 the

01:03:21.720 reason

01:03:21.960 for

01:03:22.120 that

01:03:22.320 is

01:03:22.500 that

01:03:22.740 you

01:03:27.080 have a

01:03:27.440 moral

01:03:27.640 obligation

01:03:28.160 as a

01:03:28.960 parent

01:03:29.460 to

01:03:29.780 encourage

01:03:31.440 your

01:03:31.700 child

01:03:32.460 to go

01:03:32.700 out

01:03:32.840 into

01:03:32.980 the

01:03:33.140 world

01:03:33.440 right

01:03:34.040 and

01:03:35.140 to

01:03:35.300 be

01:03:35.700 whoever

01:03:36.440 they

01:03:36.720 can

01:03:36.900 be

01:03:37.280 to

01:03:38.600 be

01:03:38.800 the

01:03:38.980 best

01:03:39.240 they

01:03:39.460 can

01:03:39.620 possibly

01:03:40.060 be

01:03:40.500 and

01:03:42.480 in

01:03:42.620 doing

01:03:42.820 that

01:03:43.040 you're

01:03:43.260 encouraging

01:03:44.900 them

01:03:45.340 to

01:03:46.580 pursue

01:03:47.440 the

01:03:47.660 good

01:03:47.880 you're

01:03:48.480 sacrificing

01:03:49.240 them

01:03:49.680 to

01:03:50.220 the

01:03:50.380 good

01:03:50.680 you're

01:03:51.600 not

01:03:51.800 keeping

01:03:52.160 them

01:03:52.360 for

01:03:52.580 yourself

01:03:53.140 selfishly

01:03:54.420 you're

01:03:55.300 telling

01:03:55.580 them

01:03:55.840 that

01:03:56.040 they

01:03:56.200 can

01:03:56.420 go

01:03:56.660 out

01:03:56.860 and

01:03:57.040 live

01:03:57.300 their

01:03:57.500 life

01:03:57.800 and

01:03:57.960 live

01:03:58.180 it

01:03:58.340 properly

01:03:58.760 and

01:03:59.440 and

01:04:03.000 that's

01:04:03.440 the

01:04:03.960 parallel

01:04:04.340 to

01:04:04.640 the

01:04:04.800 idea

01:04:05.200 of

01:04:05.560 the

01:04:06.220 sacrifice

01:04:06.680 of

01:04:07.040 Isaac

01:04:07.440 as far

01:04:08.300 as I

01:04:08.600 can

01:04:08.760 tell

01:04:09.080 you

01:04:12.920 don't

01:04:13.200 want

01:04:13.520 for

01:04:13.720 your

01:04:13.940 son

01:04:14.280 what

01:04:15.040 it

01:04:15.180 is

01:04:15.360 that

01:04:15.540 you

01:04:15.720 want

01:04:16.060 for

01:04:16.300 him

01:04:16.580 you

01:04:17.940 want

01:04:18.220 for

01:04:18.500 your

01:04:18.820 son

01:04:19.180 what

01:04:20.620 would

01:04:21.260 be

01:04:21.460 best

01:04:21.820 for

01:04:22.000 him

01:04:22.260 and

01:04:22.520 for

01:04:22.680 the

01:04:22.840 world

01:04:23.200 and

01:04:24.760 you

01:04:25.160 let

01:04:25.500 go

01:04:26.000 in

01:04:27.140 precise

01:04:27.560 proportion

01:04:28.120 to

01:04:28.440 your

01:04:28.620 desire

01:04:29.100 to

01:04:29.660 have

01:04:29.860 that

01:04:30.060 happen

01:04:30.440 you

01:04:30.880 know

01:04:31.040 the

01:04:31.360 psychoanalyst

01:04:32.000 the

01:04:32.160 great

01:04:32.360 psychoanalyst

01:04:32.980 I think

01:04:33.360 the psychoanalyst

01:04:34.120 I think this is actually Freud's dictum

01:04:35.840 but I'm not certain of that

01:04:37.000 he said the good mother fails

01:04:39.060 which is a

01:04:40.920 it's a brilliant observation

01:04:42.320 because

01:04:42.800 when you have an infant

01:04:46.320 you do everything for the infant

01:04:47.700 because the infant can do nothing

01:04:49.240 for him or herself

01:04:50.400 but as the infant matures

01:04:52.180 and is increasingly capable

01:04:54.660 of doing things for him or herself

01:04:57.300 then you pull back

01:04:58.240 right

01:04:58.480 you pull back

01:04:59.620 and every time the child develops the ability to do something

01:05:02.960 you allow them

01:05:03.760 or encourage them to do it

01:05:05.440 and you don't interfere

01:05:06.800 you know

01:05:07.440 so if your child is struggling getting dressed

01:05:09.320 well

01:05:09.620 obviously there's sometimes that you help them

01:05:11.700 but mostly you let them learn

01:05:13.220 so that they can know how to do it in the future

01:05:15.520 that's better for you

01:05:16.840 and it's certainly better for them

01:05:17.920 there's a rule

01:05:18.900 if you're working with the elderly

01:05:20.420 in an old age home

01:05:21.360 and the rule is something like

01:05:22.540 don't do anything for any of the

01:05:25.000 for any of the guests

01:05:27.960 let's say

01:05:28.640 that they can do for themselves

01:05:30.200 because you compromise their independence

01:05:32.920 and so

01:05:33.420 as a mother

01:05:34.280 you pull back

01:05:35.040 and you pull back

01:05:35.720 and you let your child

01:05:36.620 hit him or herself

01:05:37.960 against the world

01:05:38.960 and you fail to protect them

01:05:41.000 but by failing to protect them

01:05:43.140 you

01:05:43.580 encourage and ennoble them

01:05:46.040 to the point where

01:05:47.640 you're no longer necessary

01:05:48.860 now they may still want to see you

01:05:51.480 and it would be wonderful

01:05:52.340 if that was the case

01:05:53.280 but the point is

01:05:54.180 is that you're supposed to

01:05:55.280 remove yourself from the equation

01:05:57.540 by encouraging your child

01:05:59.780 to be the best possible person

01:06:01.620 that person can be

01:06:03.500 and you sacrifice your desires

01:06:06.640 all of your desires

01:06:08.840 to that

01:06:09.420 your personal desires

01:06:10.480 even your desires for your child

01:06:12.020 in relationship to you

01:06:13.240 because you want them

01:06:14.700 to move forward

01:06:15.320 into the world

01:06:15.920 as a light

01:06:17.060 right?

01:06:17.500 as a light on a hill

01:06:18.580 that's what you want

01:06:19.680 if you have any sense

01:06:20.920 and so you don't get

01:06:22.760 to keep your children at home

01:06:24.060 because you need them

01:06:25.400 now I'm talking generally

01:06:27.200 obviously

01:06:27.780 and there are circumstances

01:06:29.320 under which families

01:06:30.620 make their own

01:06:31.260 idiosyncratic decisions

01:06:32.500 and I'm not trying to

01:06:33.700 damn everyone

01:06:34.800 with a casual gesture

01:06:37.300 you know

01:06:37.840 but the point is still strong

01:06:39.700 that

01:06:40.000 the good father

01:06:43.500 is precisely someone

01:06:44.580 who is willing

01:06:45.380 to sacrifice his child

01:06:46.660 to the ultimate good

01:06:47.620 that's dramatized

01:06:50.480 in this story

01:06:51.180 you know

01:06:51.480 and it's brutal

01:06:52.680 but

01:06:54.100 the world is a brutal place

01:06:58.880 and much wisdom

01:06:59.620 comes out of catastrophe

01:07:00.820 and this is an indication

01:07:02.780 of how much catastrophe

01:07:04.040 our ancestors had to

01:07:05.480 plow through

01:07:06.980 had to work through

01:07:08.000 in order to generate

01:07:09.440 the substructure

01:07:10.440 for the conceptions

01:07:11.380 of freedom even

01:07:12.200 that we have today

01:07:13.020 for freedom and the good

01:07:14.200 and that's how the story

01:07:15.800 appears to me

01:07:16.600 now I think there's more to it

01:07:18.580 I think if there has to be

01:07:19.840 more to it

01:07:20.500 it lays the groundwork

01:07:23.780 at least in the Christian context

01:07:25.120 for the eventual emergence

01:07:26.440 of Christ

01:07:27.020 as I alluded to

01:07:28.340 in my reading

01:07:29.700 that story obviously

01:07:31.880 has to be unpacked

01:07:32.960 and unpacked

01:07:33.520 and unpacked

01:07:34.080 just like it has been

01:07:34.920 for the last 2,000 years

01:07:36.180 it's also an indication

01:07:37.780 here of

01:07:38.400 well I would say

01:07:43.560 the transmutation

01:07:44.420 of sacrifice

01:07:45.100 into an increasingly

01:07:46.120 psychological form

01:07:47.220 which is a development

01:07:48.400 that we've tracked

01:07:49.080 all the way through

01:07:49.780 the Old Testament

01:07:50.800 up to this particular point

01:07:52.200 first acted out

01:07:54.580 then represented in ritual

01:07:56.680 those would be

01:07:57.200 the rituals of sacrifice

01:07:58.380 then laid out in story

01:08:00.180 then turned into

01:08:01.180 a psychological phenomena

01:08:02.880 so that now

01:08:03.720 we're capable of making

01:08:05.180 sacrifices in abstraction

01:08:07.860 right

01:08:08.280 to conceptualize

01:08:10.840 a future that we want

01:08:11.980 to let go of the things

01:08:13.440 that are stopping us

01:08:14.640 from moving forward

01:08:15.420 and to free ourselves

01:08:16.940 from the chains

01:08:17.720 of our original preconceptions

01:08:19.360 and that's laid out

01:08:21.040 in these old stories

01:08:22.560 as the optimal pathway

01:08:24.780 of being

01:08:25.320 and there's a philosopher

01:08:27.440 of science

01:08:28.080 named Karl Popper

01:08:29.220 very sensible

01:08:30.540 and down-to-earth person

01:08:31.780 who was talking about

01:08:33.200 thinking and its nature

01:08:34.360 and he was thought about

01:08:35.400 thinking in a Darwinian fashion

01:08:37.040 he said

01:08:37.820 the purpose of thinking

01:08:38.660 is to let your thoughts

01:08:39.600 die instead of you

01:08:40.880 it's a brilliant notion

01:08:43.620 and so the idea

01:08:44.700 is something like

01:08:45.500 you can conjure up

01:08:48.680 a representation of yourself

01:08:50.200 you can conjure up

01:08:51.200 a variety of potential

01:08:52.460 representations of yourself

01:08:53.700 in the future

01:08:54.720 you can lay out

01:08:56.100 how those future

01:08:57.320 representations of yourself

01:08:58.540 are likely to prevail

01:09:00.620 or fail

01:09:01.300 you can cull

01:09:02.420 the potential use

01:09:04.100 in the future

01:09:04.680 that will fail

01:09:05.460 and then you can embody

01:09:06.660 the ones that will succeed

01:09:07.880 you do that

01:09:09.840 well simultaneously

01:09:11.860 conjuring up a representation

01:09:13.880 of your current state

01:09:15.100 and determining for yourself

01:09:17.040 because of your undue suffering

01:09:19.560 which elements of your pathetic being

01:09:21.940 need to be given up

01:09:23.020 so that you can move forward

01:09:24.240 into that future

01:09:25.160 and the goal

01:09:26.660 what is it that you're aiming at

01:09:28.920 with that work

01:09:29.640 and that sacrifice

01:09:30.400 that's the ultimate question

01:09:31.760 it's the question

01:09:32.400 I was trying to address

01:09:33.300 in that writing

01:09:33.880 what is it that you're trying to do

01:09:35.220 well you're trying to improve

01:09:36.460 the future

01:09:37.100 we believe that the future

01:09:39.080 can be improved

01:09:39.820 we believe that it can be improved

01:09:41.300 as a consequence

01:09:42.240 of our sacrificial work

01:09:43.680 and so once again

01:09:45.000 what are the limitations

01:09:46.100 what are the limits to that

01:09:47.400 what are the necessary limits to that

01:09:48.840 I would say we don't know

01:09:49.940 I would say as well

01:09:51.000 that that's actually something

01:09:52.180 that the entire corpus

01:09:53.620 of biblical stories

01:09:54.480 is trying desperately

01:09:55.680 to articulate

01:09:56.620 to figure out

01:09:57.700 and articulate

01:09:58.360 right

01:09:59.300 we conjured up

01:10:01.200 this remarkable idea

01:10:02.400 the future exists

01:10:03.840 we can see it

01:10:04.860 even though it's only potential

01:10:06.240 we can adjust our behavior

01:10:07.920 in the present

01:10:08.580 in order to maximize

01:10:09.980 our probability of success

01:10:11.280 in the future

01:10:11.960 how best to do that

01:10:14.100 well the idea is something like

01:10:16.640 don't hesitate

01:10:19.560 to offer

01:10:20.720 the ultimate sacrifice

01:10:22.340 if you want

01:10:24.660 the future to turn out

01:10:26.080 ultimately well

01:10:27.340 now obviously

01:10:28.880 that idea

01:10:30.620 is clothed

01:10:31.840 in metaphysical

01:10:32.700 speculation

01:10:33.940 and religious imagery

01:10:35.000 but it still remains

01:10:36.440 an intensely practical issue

01:10:38.180 right

01:10:39.000 what is it

01:10:43.100 that you could

01:10:43.800 contract for

01:10:47.020 let's say

01:10:47.860 if you were willing

01:10:50.060 to give up

01:10:50.620 everything about you

01:10:51.440 that's weak

01:10:52.000 and unworthy

01:10:52.940 the

01:10:54.740 there's a

01:10:58.100 there's a continual

01:11:01.180 hints of that

01:11:01.920 in the Old Testament

01:11:02.680 right

01:11:03.040 because what happens

01:11:04.040 with Noah

01:11:04.540 of course

01:11:05.000 is that

01:11:05.400 he establishes

01:11:08.500 the proper

01:11:09.000 covenant

01:11:09.580 with God

01:11:10.520 the proper

01:11:11.540 contract

01:11:12.100 with being

01:11:13.220 let's say

01:11:13.800 and thrives

01:11:15.080 as a consequence

01:11:15.780 and then Abraham

01:11:16.360 does the same thing

01:11:17.320 there's a strong

01:11:18.400 intimation

01:11:19.000 that that's how

01:11:19.680 the world is set

01:11:20.440 right

01:11:20.760 that idea

01:11:22.220 develops

01:11:22.760 and magnifies

01:11:23.920 as the stories

01:11:24.840 progress

01:11:25.380 into something like

01:11:26.280 into something like

01:11:30.840 the concept

01:11:31.380 of heaven

01:11:31.880 on earth

01:11:32.460 the notion

01:11:35.140 being that

01:11:35.800 the proper

01:11:36.980 sacrificial

01:11:38.640 attitude

01:11:39.160 produces

01:11:40.980 a psychological

01:11:42.580 state

01:11:43.240 and then a social

01:11:45.540 state

01:11:45.980 that's a

01:11:46.480 manifestation

01:11:46.960 of that attitude

01:11:48.000 that

01:11:49.680 decreases the

01:11:51.120 probability

01:11:51.700 that the world

01:11:52.460 will careen

01:11:53.160 into hell

01:11:53.800 and increases

01:11:55.420 the probability

01:11:56.220 that people

01:11:57.260 will live

01:11:57.860 high quality

01:11:59.000 meaningful

01:12:00.360 private lives

01:12:01.660 in a society

01:12:02.900 that's balanced

01:12:03.780 and capable

01:12:04.580 of supporting

01:12:05.220 that

01:12:05.540 and none

01:12:06.720 of that

01:12:07.100 seems to me

01:12:07.740 to be

01:12:08.240 questionable

01:12:10.860 really

01:12:12.260 I also don't

01:12:13.940 think it's anything

01:12:14.600 that people

01:12:15.160 don't actually

01:12:15.880 know

01:12:16.340 you know

01:12:17.840 people have told

01:12:18.540 me many times

01:12:19.420 that

01:12:20.180 when they listen

01:12:21.580 to me talk

01:12:22.320 they're hearing

01:12:23.660 things that they

01:12:24.360 already knew

01:12:25.180 but didn't know

01:12:26.300 how to say

01:12:26.880 it's something

01:12:27.340 like that

01:12:27.840 and this is one

01:12:28.680 of those things

01:12:29.220 that I think

01:12:29.820 is exactly like

01:12:30.720 that I mean

01:12:31.200 I think it's

01:12:32.080 at the very core

01:12:32.760 of our moral

01:12:33.300 knowledge

01:12:33.820 which is our

01:12:34.480 behavioral knowledge

01:12:35.360 and our perceptual

01:12:36.280 knowledge

01:12:36.560 I mean let's

01:12:36.900 get this straight

01:12:37.640 moral knowledge

01:12:38.540 is no trivial

01:12:39.140 matter

01:12:39.520 it's knowledge

01:12:40.100 about how it

01:12:40.660 is that you

01:12:41.060 orient yourself

01:12:41.720 in the world

01:12:42.200 there's no more

01:12:43.040 profoundly necessary

01:12:44.300 form of knowledge

01:12:45.220 well it's predicated

01:12:46.260 on something

01:12:47.320 that's exactly

01:12:47.980 like this

01:12:48.520 we know that

01:12:49.340 we have to

01:12:49.740 make sacrifices

01:12:50.440 we know that

01:12:51.040 we have to

01:12:51.500 aim at what's

01:12:52.040 good

01:12:52.340 so then why

01:12:53.360 isn't that we

01:12:53.920 don't aim at

01:12:54.500 what's best

01:12:55.080 and make the

01:12:55.680 sacrifices that are

01:12:56.560 necessary in order

01:12:57.380 to bring that

01:12:58.000 into play

01:12:58.500 I think

01:13:00.520 it seems to me

01:13:02.120 that in some sense

01:13:02.880 that's self-evident

01:13:03.800 the question is

01:13:04.840 why we don't do it

01:13:05.680 but there's answers

01:13:06.340 to that too

01:13:06.960 already in the

01:13:07.580 material that we've

01:13:08.280 covered

01:13:08.520 life is hard

01:13:09.300 and it hurts

01:13:10.380 people

01:13:10.840 it's rife with

01:13:12.300 limitation

01:13:12.880 and some of it's

01:13:14.380 arbitrary

01:13:14.900 and it's no wonder

01:13:16.040 and some of it's

01:13:17.680 unjust

01:13:18.080 and some of it's

01:13:18.720 worse

01:13:18.960 some of it's

01:13:19.540 malevolent

01:13:20.160 which is even worse

01:13:21.000 and something I

01:13:21.600 haven't talked about

01:13:22.280 at all in this

01:13:22.900 lecture

01:13:23.240 it's not surprising

01:13:24.480 that that combination

01:13:25.480 of vicissitude

01:13:26.340 can turn people

01:13:27.220 against being

01:13:27.960 but I think

01:13:29.000 even when that

01:13:29.560 happens

01:13:29.980 and even when

01:13:30.560 people have

01:13:31.220 the kind of

01:13:32.240 history

01:13:32.680 that if they

01:13:34.480 revealed to you

01:13:36.080 you would say

01:13:37.240 well it's no wonder

01:13:38.480 you turned out

01:13:39.200 that way

01:13:39.840 the people who

01:13:41.680 turn out that way

01:13:42.520 still know

01:13:43.060 that it's wrong

01:13:43.820 they still know

01:13:44.820 that however deep

01:13:45.840 their own suffering

01:13:46.720 however arbitrary

01:13:47.680 their own suffering

01:13:48.540 however much

01:13:49.640 that's caused

01:13:50.340 by the malevolence

01:13:51.340 of others

01:13:51.760 as well as the

01:13:52.660 tragedy of existence

01:13:53.700 that that does

01:13:55.300 not in any way

01:13:56.140 justify their

01:13:57.100 turning away

01:13:57.680 from the good

01:13:58.360 and I believe

01:14:00.360 everyone knows

01:14:01.060 that

01:14:01.360 I believe that

01:14:03.680 they know it

01:14:05.260 implicitly

01:14:05.980 even if they

01:14:06.580 don't allow

01:14:07.180 themselves to

01:14:07.820 know it

01:14:08.100 explicitly

01:14:08.560 and I believe

01:14:09.700 that if they

01:14:10.180 violate that

01:14:11.060 idea

01:14:11.420 then they

01:14:11.840 violate

01:14:12.240 themselves

01:14:12.820 and that

01:14:13.360 they end up

01:14:14.100 in Cain's

01:14:14.600 position

01:14:15.040 which is the

01:14:15.620 position of

01:14:16.140 the man

01:14:16.520 who's been

01:14:17.320 given a

01:14:17.720 punishment

01:14:18.040 that is too

01:14:18.580 great to

01:14:19.020 bear

01:14:19.240 and the

01:14:22.680 angel said

01:14:23.360 lay not

01:14:32.140 thine hand

01:14:32.740 upon the

01:14:33.240 lad

01:14:33.500 neither do

01:14:34.040 thou

01:14:34.320 anything

01:14:34.820 unto him

01:14:35.420 for now

01:14:36.760 I know

01:14:37.080 that thou

01:14:37.480 fearest

01:14:37.900 God

01:14:38.360 seeing

01:14:42.180 thou

01:14:42.420 hast

01:14:42.680 not

01:14:42.920 withheld

01:14:43.360 thy

01:14:43.620 son

01:14:43.940 thine

01:14:44.240 only

01:14:44.520 son

01:14:44.860 from

01:14:46.080 me

01:14:46.340 and

01:14:47.620 Abraham

01:14:47.900 lifted up

01:14:48.500 his eyes

01:14:48.860 and looked

01:14:49.340 and behold

01:14:50.980 behind him

01:14:52.040 a ram

01:14:53.120 caught in

01:14:53.580 a thicket

01:14:53.960 by his

01:14:54.340 thorns

01:14:54.760 by his

01:14:55.480 horns

01:14:55.760 and Abraham

01:14:57.380 went and

01:14:57.840 took the

01:14:58.160 ram

01:14:58.420 and offered

01:14:59.800 him up

01:15:00.080 for a burnt

01:15:00.520 offering

01:15:00.940 in the

01:15:03.080 stead of

01:15:03.400 his son

01:15:03.800 and Abraham

01:15:06.440 called the

01:15:06.920 name of that

01:15:07.340 place

01:15:07.740 Jehovah

01:15:09.080 Jira

01:15:09.520 as it is

01:15:11.020 said to

01:15:11.360 this day

01:15:11.840 in the

01:15:13.180 mount of

01:15:13.560 the Lord

01:15:13.980 it shall

01:15:14.860 be seen

01:15:15.340 and the

01:15:18.620 angel of

01:15:19.020 the Lord

01:15:19.320 called

01:15:19.680 unto

01:15:19.920 Abraham

01:15:20.240 out of

01:15:20.680 heaven

01:15:20.880 the

01:15:21.080 second

01:15:21.340 time

01:15:21.720 and said

01:15:22.900 by

01:15:24.640 myself

01:15:25.120 have I

01:15:25.540 sworn

01:15:25.880 saith

01:15:26.260 the

01:15:26.460 Lord

01:15:26.720 for

01:15:26.940 because

01:15:27.300 thou

01:15:27.500 hast

01:15:27.760 done

01:15:27.980 this

01:15:28.200 thing

01:15:28.460 and

01:15:28.600 has

01:15:28.840 not

01:15:29.140 withheld

01:15:29.940 thy

01:15:30.180 son

01:15:30.520 thine

01:15:31.040 only

01:15:31.380 son

01:15:31.760 that

01:15:33.400 in

01:15:33.600 blessing

01:15:34.020 I

01:15:34.440 will

01:15:34.600 bless

01:15:34.920 thee

01:15:35.220 and

01:15:36.420 in

01:15:36.580 multiplying

01:15:37.180 I

01:15:37.840 will

01:15:37.980 multiply

01:15:38.440 thy

01:15:38.740 seed

01:15:39.120 as

01:15:39.340 the

01:15:39.500 stars

01:15:39.840 of

01:15:40.040 the

01:15:40.180 heaven

01:15:40.420 and

01:15:40.780 as

01:15:40.940 the

01:15:41.140 sand

01:15:41.520 which

01:15:41.720 is

01:15:41.860 upon

01:15:42.160 the

01:15:42.360 seashore

01:15:42.820 and

01:15:43.460 thy

01:15:43.640 seed

01:15:43.860 shall

01:15:44.100 possess

01:15:44.440 the

01:15:44.680 gate

01:15:44.940 of

01:15:45.720 his

01:15:45.860 enemies

01:15:46.220 and

01:15:47.620 in

01:15:47.760 thy

01:15:47.980 seed

01:15:48.200 shall

01:15:48.420 all

01:15:48.680 the

01:15:48.860 nations

01:15:49.200 of

01:15:49.400 the

01:15:49.540 earth

01:15:49.720 be

01:15:49.940 blessed

01:15:50.360 because

01:15:51.280 thou

01:15:51.520 hast

01:15:51.980 obeyed

01:15:53.020 my

01:15:53.340 voice

01:15:53.720 so

01:15:57.500 Abraham

01:15:57.780 returned

01:15:58.240 unto

01:15:58.440 his

01:15:58.660 young

01:15:58.860 men

01:15:59.080 and

01:15:59.200 they

01:15:59.340 rose

01:15:59.580 up

01:15:59.800 and

01:15:59.920 went

01:16:00.100 together

01:16:00.460 to

01:16:00.660 Beersheba

01:16:01.200 and

01:16:01.740 Abraham

01:16:02.060 dwelt

01:16:02.580 at

01:16:02.780 Beersheba

01:16:03.340 and

01:16:05.400 it

01:16:05.500 came

01:16:05.660 to

01:16:05.820 pass

01:16:06.100 after

01:16:06.400 these

01:16:06.640 things

01:16:07.020 that

01:16:07.740 it

01:16:07.820 was

01:16:07.940 told

01:16:08.200 Abraham

01:16:08.600 saying

01:16:10.020 behold

01:16:11.260 Milcah

01:16:11.880 she

01:16:12.160 hath

01:16:12.360 also

01:16:12.640 born

01:16:12.880 children

01:16:13.220 unto

01:16:13.500 thy

01:16:13.760 brother

01:16:14.100 Nahor

01:16:14.560 and

01:16:16.680 Sarah

01:16:16.920 was

01:16:17.140 107

01:16:17.880 and

01:16:18.040 20

01:16:18.240 years

01:16:18.540 old

01:16:18.860 those

01:16:20.100 were

01:16:20.220 the

01:16:20.360 years

01:16:20.620 of

01:16:20.760 the

01:16:20.880 life

01:16:21.080 of

01:16:21.280 Sarah

01:16:21.560 and

01:16:22.060 Sarah

01:16:22.300 died

01:16:22.680 in

01:16:22.920 Kirjatharba

01:16:23.640 the

01:16:24.580 same

01:16:24.820 as

01:16:24.980 Hebron

01:16:25.460 in

01:16:25.680 the

01:16:25.800 land

01:16:26.040 of

01:16:26.200 Canaan

01:16:26.520 and

01:16:27.360 Abraham

01:16:27.640 came

01:16:28.020 to

01:16:28.180 mourn

01:16:28.420 for

01:16:28.620 Sarah

01:16:28.960 and

01:16:30.320 to

01:16:30.440 weep

01:16:30.620 for

01:16:30.780 her

01:16:31.020 well

01:16:32.080 I

01:16:34.200 I

01:16:34.220 don't

01:16:34.480 exactly

01:16:34.880 know

01:16:35.080 what

01:16:35.260 to

01:16:35.380 do

01:16:35.520 now

01:16:35.860 because

01:16:38.780 that

01:16:39.220 I'll review

01:16:56.880 what we've

01:16:57.420 what we've

01:16:58.420 covered

01:16:58.700 and

01:17:00.320 then

01:17:00.460 I'll

01:17:00.620 bring

01:17:00.820 this

01:17:01.040 to

01:17:01.240 a

01:17:01.380 close

01:17:01.680 we can

01:17:02.120 have

01:17:02.300 some

01:17:02.500 more

01:17:02.640 questions

01:17:03.120 than

01:17:03.660 would

01:17:03.840 be

01:17:04.100 usual

01:17:04.880 tonight

01:17:05.280 so

01:17:06.400 what have

01:17:10.500 we established

01:17:11.140 by this

01:17:11.740 point

01:17:12.120 the

01:17:16.400 stories

01:17:16.760 that

01:17:16.940 have

01:17:17.060 been

01:17:17.240 revealed

01:17:17.600 so

01:17:17.880 far

01:17:18.140 are

01:17:18.360 something

01:17:18.780 like

01:17:19.560 they

01:17:22.320 contain

01:17:22.640 the

01:17:22.840 idea

01:17:23.140 that

01:17:23.420 there's

01:17:23.680 something

01:17:24.080 divine

01:17:27.780 that's

01:17:29.900 analogous

01:17:30.540 to the

01:17:30.840 human

01:17:31.100 capacity

01:17:31.660 for

01:17:32.140 communication

01:17:33.420 and

01:17:33.700 attention

01:17:34.140 that's

01:17:35.620 at

01:17:36.160 the

01:17:36.520 that

01:17:37.760 operates

01:17:38.160 at the

01:17:38.480 genesis

01:17:38.820 of being

01:17:39.280 itself

01:17:39.720 that's

01:17:43.040 the

01:17:43.140 initial

01:17:43.460 account

01:17:43.820 in the

01:17:44.100 old

01:17:44.260 testament

01:17:44.600 it's

01:17:47.140 an

01:17:47.240 account

01:17:47.520 that

01:17:47.760 places

01:17:48.160 the

01:17:49.040 role

01:17:49.260 of

01:17:49.440 spirit

01:17:49.980 centrally

01:17:52.160 in the

01:17:53.060 nature

01:17:54.060 of being

01:17:54.560 now

01:17:56.840 I'm not

01:17:57.100 exactly

01:17:57.420 sure

01:17:57.640 what to

01:17:57.940 make

01:17:58.140 of that

01:17:58.520 because

01:17:59.620 in

01:17:59.820 some

01:18:00.020 ways

01:18:00.220 I'm

01:18:00.440 as

01:18:00.580 materialistically

01:18:01.500 oriented

01:18:02.440 as

01:18:02.920 modern

01:18:03.720 people

01:18:04.020 typically

01:18:04.400 are

01:18:04.800 but

01:18:06.260 the

01:18:07.240 stories

01:18:07.560 make sense

01:18:08.140 to me

01:18:08.480 in many

01:18:08.900 ways

01:18:09.360 the

01:18:11.300 idea

01:18:11.580 that

01:18:11.800 there's

01:18:12.040 something

01:18:12.460 world

01:18:14.420 creating

01:18:14.920 about

01:18:15.260 human

01:18:15.920 consciousness

01:18:16.440 and that

01:18:17.900 that's

01:18:18.160 akin

01:18:18.460 in some

01:18:18.900 sense

01:18:19.300 to

01:18:19.600 the

01:18:20.220 divine

01:18:20.580 force

01:18:21.060 that

01:18:21.340 called

01:18:22.180 order

01:18:22.800 out

01:18:23.020 of

01:18:23.140 chaos

01:18:23.440 at

01:18:23.660 the

01:18:23.780 beginning

01:18:24.020 of

01:18:24.200 time

01:18:24.580 seems

01:18:25.380 to me

01:18:25.660 to be

01:18:26.060 a

01:18:26.540 very

01:18:26.720 powerful

01:18:27.240 metaphysical

01:18:28.120 idea

01:18:28.560 and it

01:18:29.420 also

01:18:29.660 seems

01:18:29.960 to me

01:18:30.220 to be

01:18:30.540 an

01:18:30.780 idea

01:18:31.080 that

01:18:31.300 is

01:18:31.700 immovably

01:18:33.300 at

01:18:33.720 the

01:18:33.940 foundation

01:18:34.420 of

01:18:34.840 western

01:18:35.580 culture

01:18:36.020 because

01:18:37.280 our

01:18:37.540 entire

01:18:37.920 legal

01:18:38.280 system

01:18:38.780 our

01:18:39.200 society

01:18:39.740 our

01:18:40.660 mutual

01:18:42.160 expectations

01:18:43.040 all of

01:18:43.860 that

01:18:44.060 are

01:18:44.220 conditioned

01:18:44.640 to the

01:18:45.200 final

01:18:46.560 degree

01:18:47.040 by

01:18:48.140 our

01:18:49.000 presupposition

01:18:50.860 that each

01:18:51.340 of us

01:18:51.620 has an

01:18:52.060 intrinsic

01:18:52.500 value

01:18:53.060 that

01:18:53.940 transcends

01:18:54.660 the

01:18:55.000 local

01:18:55.680 conditions

01:18:56.160 of our

01:18:56.560 being

01:18:56.880 and

01:18:58.260 it's

01:18:59.380 with

01:18:59.820 that

01:19:00.080 presupposition

01:19:00.840 that

01:19:01.060 we've

01:19:01.260 been

01:19:01.400 able

01:19:01.660 to

01:19:01.960 establish

01:19:02.920 the

01:19:03.260 society

01:19:03.860 that

01:19:04.980 functions

01:19:05.620 a society

01:19:06.160 that functions

01:19:06.760 and functions

01:19:07.360 well

01:19:07.780 and it

01:19:08.460 has

01:19:08.680 its

01:19:08.860 current

01:19:09.240 characterization

01:19:10.420 and that's

01:19:11.660 a

01:19:11.800 non

01:19:12.140 it's

01:19:13.660 an

01:19:13.800 unlikely

01:19:14.340 occurrence

01:19:14.860 and it's

01:19:15.380 a

01:19:15.520 non

01:19:15.800 trivial

01:19:16.140 reality

01:19:16.760 and I

01:19:18.060 don't

01:19:18.200 see

01:19:18.380 any

01:19:18.600 way

01:19:18.760 out

01:19:18.960 of

01:19:19.100 that

01:19:19.420 way

01:19:21.840 out

01:19:22.020 of

01:19:22.120 that

01:19:22.260 conclusion

01:19:22.640 I

01:19:22.820 don't

01:19:22.960 see

01:19:23.180 anything

01:19:23.620 that

01:19:23.860 that

01:19:24.740 can

01:19:24.900 easily

01:19:25.200 be

01:19:25.420 replaced

01:19:25.920 with

01:19:26.260 and so

01:19:28.440 God

01:19:28.700 calls

01:19:29.160 being

01:19:31.220 into

01:19:31.620 order

01:19:32.340 into

01:19:32.620 being

01:19:32.860 out

01:19:33.020 of

01:19:33.140 chaos

01:19:33.420 at

01:19:33.600 the

01:19:33.700 beginning

01:19:33.960 of

01:19:34.160 time

01:19:34.480 and

01:19:35.500 attributes

01:19:35.840 to

01:19:36.040 human

01:19:36.280 beings

01:19:36.580 the

01:19:36.780 same

01:19:37.020 essential

01:19:37.400 capacity

01:19:38.000 then we

01:19:38.560 turn to

01:19:38.900 Adam

01:19:39.120 and Eve

01:19:39.540 in the

01:19:39.880 garden

01:19:40.200 and

01:19:40.460 they're

01:19:40.640 unconscious

01:19:41.180 by

01:19:41.540 all

01:19:41.800 appearances

01:19:42.340 allied

01:19:44.380 tightly

01:19:44.820 with

01:19:45.060 God

01:19:45.340 but

01:19:45.520 unconscious

01:19:46.040 they

01:19:46.300 don't

01:19:46.500 seem

01:19:46.720 aware

01:19:46.960 of

01:19:47.100 the

01:19:47.220 future

01:19:47.560 they

01:19:47.920 don't

01:19:48.100 seem

01:19:48.300 aware

01:19:48.560 of

01:19:48.700 themselves

01:19:48.980 they

01:19:49.420 don't

01:19:49.580 seem

01:19:49.780 aware

01:19:50.040 of

01:19:50.180 their

01:19:50.300 own

01:19:50.460 vulnerability

01:19:50.960 they

01:19:53.960 make

01:19:54.200 the

01:19:54.380 fatal

01:19:54.640 error

01:19:55.060 of

01:19:55.840 having

01:19:56.100 their

01:19:56.300 eyes

01:19:56.520 open

01:19:56.880 they

01:19:57.480 discover

01:19:57.880 their

01:19:58.120 own

01:19:58.300 vulnerability

01:19:58.760 they

01:19:59.720 also

01:19:59.980 discover

01:20:00.440 their

01:20:00.640 capacity

01:20:01.080 for

01:20:01.340 evil

01:20:01.680 we

01:20:02.420 reviewed

01:20:02.800 that

01:20:03.080 to

01:20:03.260 some

01:20:03.480 degree

01:20:03.880 what's

01:20:05.560 the

01:20:05.680 association

01:20:06.320 because

01:20:06.640 it's

01:20:06.880 the

01:20:07.020 tree

01:20:07.200 of

01:20:07.320 the

01:20:07.460 knowledge

01:20:07.820 of

01:20:08.940 good

01:20:09.100 and

01:20:09.240 evil

01:20:09.520 the

01:20:10.800 fruit

01:20:11.060 of

01:20:11.200 which

01:20:11.400 they

01:20:11.640 eat

01:20:12.000 what's

01:20:13.160 the

01:20:13.280 association

01:20:13.880 between

01:20:14.260 the

01:20:14.440 discovery

01:20:14.840 of

01:20:15.040 vulnerability

01:20:15.420 and

01:20:16.160 the

01:20:16.280 emergence

01:20:16.600 of

01:20:16.820 moral

01:20:17.060 knowledge

01:20:17.580 it's

01:20:18.560 something

01:20:18.880 like

01:20:19.260 as

01:20:19.440 far

01:20:19.660 as

01:20:19.780 I

01:20:19.900 can

01:20:20.060 tell

01:20:20.380 that

01:20:21.020 you

01:20:21.180 actually

01:20:21.660 don't

01:20:22.040 know

01:20:22.220 how

01:20:22.440 to

01:20:22.600 be

01:20:22.780 evil

01:20:23.200 or

01:20:23.760 to

01:20:23.900 be

01:20:24.040 good

01:20:24.340 until

01:20:24.900 you're

01:20:25.120 actually

01:20:25.420 aware

01:20:25.760 consciously

01:20:26.280 of

01:20:26.520 your

01:20:26.640 own

01:20:26.820 vulnerability

01:20:27.220 because

01:20:27.780 the

01:20:28.600 essence

01:20:28.980 of

01:20:29.180 evil

01:20:29.480 is

01:20:29.700 the

01:20:29.860 exploitation

01:20:30.380 of

01:20:30.780 vulnerability

01:20:31.300 perhaps

01:20:32.660 for the

01:20:33.100 sake

01:20:33.380 of

01:20:33.540 that

01:20:33.720 exploitation

01:20:34.240 and

01:20:35.300 I

01:20:35.460 can't

01:20:35.780 understand

01:20:36.300 how

01:20:36.520 to

01:20:36.700 hurt

01:20:37.040 someone

01:20:37.940 until

01:20:39.060 I

01:20:39.300 know

01:20:39.480 exactly

01:20:39.960 how

01:20:40.220 I

01:20:40.480 can

01:20:40.640 be

01:20:40.820 hurt

01:20:41.040 myself

01:20:41.560 and

01:20:42.640 I

01:20:42.800 can't

01:20:43.120 understand

01:20:43.560 how

01:20:43.780 I

01:20:43.940 can

01:20:44.080 be

01:20:44.220 hurt

01:20:44.400 myself

01:20:44.920 until

01:20:45.540 I

01:20:45.740 become

01:20:46.060 cognizant

01:20:46.780 of

01:20:46.940 my

01:20:47.120 mortal

01:20:47.420 limitations

01:20:48.020 until

01:20:48.420 I

01:20:48.580 understand

01:20:49.040 what

01:20:49.240 brings

01:20:49.540 me

01:20:49.740 pain

01:20:50.080 until

01:20:50.640 I

01:20:50.920 understand

01:20:51.700 the

01:20:51.920 suffering

01:20:52.280 that

01:20:52.480 goes

01:20:52.720 along

01:20:53.000 with

01:20:53.160 my

01:20:53.440 mortal

01:20:54.000 limitations

01:20:54.540 my

01:20:54.920 inevitable

01:20:56.060 death

01:20:56.560 and

01:20:56.740 the

01:20:56.900 suffering

01:20:57.220 that

01:20:57.420 goes

01:20:57.620 along

01:20:57.880 with

01:20:58.100 that

01:20:58.380 and

01:20:59.380 with

01:20:59.540 the

01:21:00.980 accrual

01:21:01.880 of

01:21:02.040 the

01:21:02.220 knowledge

01:21:02.640 of

01:21:03.020 mortality

01:21:04.180 and

01:21:04.480 good

01:21:04.640 and

01:21:04.780 evil

01:21:05.060 Adam

01:21:05.600 and

01:21:05.720 Eve

01:21:05.860 are

01:21:05.980 cast

01:21:06.280 out

01:21:06.460 of

01:21:06.580 paradise

01:21:06.940 and

01:21:07.160 history

01:21:07.520 begins

01:21:08.000 and

01:21:08.560 that

01:21:08.720 seems

01:21:09.000 right

01:21:09.300 to

01:21:09.480 me

01:21:09.640 because

01:21:10.000 I

01:21:10.700 don't

01:21:10.920 think

01:21:11.120 that

01:21:11.280 history

01:21:11.620 did

01:21:11.860 begin

01:21:12.180 before

01:21:12.480 human

01:21:12.780 beings

01:21:13.040 became

01:21:13.340 self-conscious

01:21:14.000 so

01:21:15.220 there's

01:21:15.400 something

01:21:15.620 about

01:21:15.900 that

01:21:16.120 that's

01:21:16.340 right

01:21:16.680 because

01:21:17.180 history

01:21:17.480 doesn't

01:21:17.740 really

01:21:17.900 begin

01:21:18.220 until

01:21:18.500 people

01:21:18.800 become

01:21:19.100 aware

01:21:19.340 of

01:21:19.480 the

01:21:19.580 future

01:21:19.960 history

01:21:20.780 doesn't

01:21:21.080 really

01:21:21.240 begin

01:21:21.480 until

01:21:21.740 people

01:21:22.360 work

01:21:22.840 and

01:21:23.020 start

01:21:23.300 to

01:21:23.500 build

01:21:23.900 right

01:21:24.160 we

01:21:24.320 still

01:21:24.600 live

01:21:25.240 we would

01:21:26.000 still

01:21:26.240 be

01:21:26.440 ensconced

01:21:26.980 in

01:21:27.140 essentially

01:21:27.600 an

01:21:27.800 animal

01:21:28.100 existence

01:21:28.620 until

01:21:29.640 we're

01:21:29.960 aware

01:21:30.440 of

01:21:30.620 the

01:21:30.760 future

01:21:31.060 and

01:21:31.260 start

01:21:31.540 to

01:21:31.760 buttress

01:21:32.180 ourselves

01:21:32.540 against

01:21:32.920 it

01:21:33.160 start

01:21:33.620 to

01:21:33.780 wear

01:21:33.960 clothing

01:21:34.320 start

01:21:34.580 to

01:21:34.720 build

01:21:35.000 buildings

01:21:35.340 start

01:21:35.580 to

01:21:35.740 make

01:21:36.020 cities

01:21:36.420 all

01:21:37.020 in

01:21:37.700 all

01:21:38.520 in

01:21:38.680 consequence

01:21:39.080 of

01:21:39.380 having

01:21:39.620 become

01:21:39.960 aware

01:21:40.300 of

01:21:40.760 the

01:21:40.900 fact

01:21:41.160 that

01:21:41.280 we're

01:21:41.420 fragile

01:21:41.780 and

01:21:42.280 that

01:21:42.420 the

01:21:42.560 future

01:21:42.820 is

01:21:43.000 a

01:21:43.120 dangerous

01:21:43.460 place

01:21:43.920 so

01:21:44.500 that

01:21:44.680 seems

01:21:44.920 to

01:21:45.080 me

01:21:45.200 to

01:21:45.300 be

01:21:45.440 existentially

01:21:46.000 correct

01:21:46.400 and

01:21:46.580 then

01:21:46.760 we

01:21:47.180 have

01:21:47.340 the

01:21:47.480 story

01:21:47.740 of

01:21:47.880 Cain

01:21:48.080 and

01:21:48.200 Abel

01:21:48.480 brilliantly

01:21:49.480 placed

01:21:49.940 immediately

01:21:50.360 afterwards

01:21:50.880 and

01:21:51.160 so

01:21:51.280 those

01:21:51.500 are

01:21:51.600 the

01:21:51.720 first

01:21:52.180 two

01:21:52.380 people

01:21:52.720 in

01:21:53.260 history

01:21:53.760 essentially

01:21:54.600 and

01:21:55.840 they

01:21:55.980 make

01:21:56.200 sacrifices

01:21:56.860 so

01:21:57.140 that

01:21:57.340 goes

01:21:57.580 along

01:21:57.880 with

01:21:58.040 the

01:21:58.160 idea

01:21:58.440 of

01:21:58.580 the

01:21:58.700 discovery

01:21:59.080 of

01:21:59.280 work

01:21:59.440 the

01:21:59.600 necessity

01:21:59.980 of

01:22:00.220 work

01:22:00.400 and

01:22:00.520 the

01:22:00.620 discovery

01:22:00.960 of

01:22:01.140 the

01:22:01.260 future

01:22:01.560 and

01:22:03.040 then

01:22:03.200 exactly

01:22:03.600 what

01:22:03.800 you'd

01:22:03.980 expect

01:22:04.300 would

01:22:04.480 happen

01:22:04.860 one

01:22:06.620 segment

01:22:08.120 of

01:22:08.440 mankind

01:22:08.840 let's

01:22:09.400 say

01:22:09.560 makes

01:22:09.900 the

01:22:10.120 sacrifices

01:22:10.660 properly

01:22:11.240 and

01:22:11.600 prevails

01:22:12.120 and

01:22:12.300 the

01:22:12.420 other

01:22:12.620 segment

01:22:13.020 makes

01:22:13.420 the

01:22:13.640 sacrifices

01:22:14.180 improperly

01:22:14.980 and

01:22:15.540 fails

01:22:16.020 and

01:22:16.860 that's

01:22:17.140 perfectly

01:22:17.560 reasonable

01:22:18.180 given

01:22:18.520 what

01:22:18.740 you

01:22:18.880 see

01:22:19.060 around

01:22:19.360 you

01:22:19.520 because

01:22:19.780 that's

01:22:20.080 what

01:22:20.200 seems

01:22:20.420 to

01:22:20.600 happen

01:22:20.860 all

01:22:21.060 the

01:22:21.200 time

01:22:21.540 and

01:22:22.180 then

01:22:22.400 more

01:22:23.020 interestingly

01:22:23.580 I

01:22:23.820 would

01:22:28.040 embitterment

01:22:28.960 right

01:22:30.320 and

01:22:31.740 that

01:22:31.940 embitterment

01:22:32.500 produces

01:22:33.100 a

01:22:34.540 hatred

01:22:34.880 for

01:22:35.200 being

01:22:35.640 and

01:22:36.440 a

01:22:36.580 desire

01:22:36.940 for

01:22:37.240 revenge

01:22:37.800 that

01:22:38.540 seems

01:22:38.860 perfectly

01:22:39.340 appropriate

01:22:39.880 when I

01:22:40.740 look at

01:22:41.040 people

01:22:41.280 who

01:22:41.460 are

01:22:41.620 bitter

01:22:41.900 and

01:22:42.460 who

01:22:42.580 want

01:22:42.860 revenge

01:22:43.420 it's

01:22:44.480 generally

01:22:44.800 because

01:22:45.160 their

01:22:45.380 sacrificial

01:22:45.920 efforts

01:22:46.340 have

01:22:46.560 failed

01:22:47.000 now

01:22:47.920 I'm

01:22:48.160 loath

01:22:48.420 to

01:22:48.600 say

01:22:48.820 that

01:22:49.020 that's

01:22:49.360 a

01:22:49.720 matter

01:22:49.980 of

01:22:50.180 their

01:22:50.340 own

01:22:50.540 doing

01:22:50.820 although

01:22:51.100 sometimes

01:22:51.760 it

01:22:52.080 clearly

01:22:52.500 is

01:22:53.080 the

01:22:56.560 embittered

01:22:57.200 and

01:22:58.280 vengeful

01:22:58.880 complain

01:23:00.180 to

01:23:00.400 God

01:23:00.780 and

01:23:02.660 blame

01:23:03.040 him

01:23:03.280 for

01:23:03.460 the

01:23:03.640 structure

01:23:03.980 of

01:23:04.160 existence

01:23:04.760 you know

01:23:07.300 I read

01:23:07.720 about

01:23:07.980 the

01:23:08.180 Columbine

01:23:08.680 massacre

01:23:09.200 and

01:23:09.860 the

01:23:09.980 kids

01:23:10.200 who

01:23:10.480 undertook

01:23:12.120 it

01:23:12.360 that'll

01:23:14.420 make

01:23:14.820 your hair

01:23:15.140 stand

01:23:15.480 on end

01:23:15.920 if you

01:23:16.220 want

01:23:16.360 to

01:23:16.460 read

01:23:16.640 something

01:23:16.980 that

01:23:17.240 will

01:23:17.880 really

01:23:18.140 disturb

01:23:18.580 you

01:23:18.900 reading

01:23:20.340 Eric

01:23:20.660 Harris

01:23:21.000 writings

01:23:21.500 will

01:23:21.800 really

01:23:22.100 disturb

01:23:22.540 you

01:23:22.720 no

01:23:22.880 matter

01:23:23.060 how

01:23:23.260 much

01:23:23.480 you

01:23:23.640 know

01:23:23.800 about

01:23:24.040 human

01:23:24.340 beings

01:23:24.760 reading

01:23:25.640 Eric

01:23:25.960 Harris

01:23:26.280 writings

01:23:27.140 will

01:23:27.400 disturb

01:23:27.820 you

01:23:28.100 and

01:23:28.980 Harris

01:23:29.360 is

01:23:29.600 a

01:23:29.740 cane

01:23:30.100 you

01:23:30.480 know

01:23:30.640 he

01:23:31.620 says

01:23:31.920 it

01:23:32.100 straightforwardly

01:23:32.980 he

01:23:33.660 hates

01:23:33.920 human

01:23:34.200 beings

01:23:34.640 hates

01:23:35.580 being

01:23:36.060 itself

01:23:36.520 he

01:23:37.000 would

01:23:37.120 destroy

01:23:37.440 everything

01:23:37.980 if it

01:23:38.300 was

01:23:38.440 within

01:23:38.680 his

01:23:38.840 power

01:23:39.060 to

01:23:39.240 do

01:23:39.400 that

01:23:39.680 and

01:23:40.660 of

01:23:40.860 course

01:23:41.060 him

01:23:41.260 and

01:23:41.360 his

01:23:41.520 colleague

01:23:41.960 were

01:23:43.060 motivated

01:23:44.580 to produce

01:23:45.040 far more

01:23:45.520 carnage

01:23:45.940 than they

01:23:46.260 managed

01:23:46.680 that

01:23:46.940 day

01:23:47.260 what

01:23:48.240 was

01:23:48.480 successful

01:23:49.000 was

01:23:49.260 only

01:23:49.440 a

01:23:49.620 fraction

01:23:49.960 of

01:23:50.160 what

01:23:50.300 they

01:23:50.460 had

01:23:50.660 planned

01:23:51.100 and

01:23:52.260 Harris

01:23:52.840 said

01:23:53.200 very

01:23:53.440 straightforwardly

01:23:54.180 that

01:23:54.360 he

01:23:54.500 had

01:23:55.260 set

01:23:55.480 himself

01:23:55.800 up

01:23:56.000 as

01:23:56.140 the

01:23:56.300 judge

01:23:56.500 of

01:23:56.660 being

01:23:56.900 and

01:23:57.080 that

01:23:57.200 it

01:23:57.340 lacked

01:23:57.660 all

01:23:58.200 utility

01:23:58.660 in

01:23:58.880 his

01:23:59.060 eyes

01:23:59.380 human

01:24:00.340 beings

01:24:00.740 certainly

01:24:01.380 should

01:24:02.260 all

01:24:02.440 be

01:24:02.600 removed

01:24:03.920 from

01:24:04.220 the

01:24:04.380 face

01:24:04.640 of

01:24:04.820 existence

01:24:05.560 because

01:24:06.460 of

01:24:06.660 their

01:24:06.900 pathology

01:24:08.000 and

01:24:08.560 the

01:24:08.720 fundamental

01:24:09.300 horrors

01:24:10.820 of

01:24:11.020 being

01:24:11.440 itself

01:24:11.940 so

01:24:13.220 there's

01:24:13.440 nothing

01:24:13.700 in the

01:24:13.980 Cain

01:24:14.160 and Abel

01:24:14.480 story

01:24:14.800 that

01:24:14.960 isn't

01:24:15.240 real

01:24:15.600 it's

01:24:15.920 real

01:24:16.300 and

01:24:16.520 Cain

01:24:16.980 complains

01:24:17.460 to

01:24:17.620 God

01:24:17.860 as

01:24:18.060 people

01:24:18.380 will

01:24:18.660 when

01:24:18.900 their

01:24:19.340 dreams

01:24:19.640 are

01:24:19.820 dashed

01:24:20.460 and

01:24:20.920 that

01:24:21.160 goes

01:24:21.640 for

01:24:21.840 people

01:24:22.100 who

01:24:25.480 it's

01:24:26.100 harder

01:24:26.440 I suppose

01:24:26.900 if

01:24:27.080 you're

01:24:27.240 atheistic

01:24:27.740 to

01:24:27.940 figure

01:24:28.100 out

01:24:28.280 who

01:24:28.380 to

01:24:28.520 blame

01:24:28.860 but

01:24:29.460 that

01:24:29.620 doesn't

01:24:29.880 mean

01:24:30.040 that

01:24:30.180 the

01:24:30.360 sentiment

01:24:30.780 well

01:24:31.420 it

01:24:33.620 doesn't

01:24:33.900 mean

01:24:34.060 that

01:24:34.200 the

01:24:34.360 sentiment

01:24:34.720 is

01:24:35.000 any

01:24:35.180 different

01:24:35.580 right

01:24:36.780 the

01:24:36.960 same

01:24:37.180 drama

01:24:37.580 is

01:24:37.780 being

01:24:38.020 enacted

01:24:38.460 you

01:24:39.040 shake

01:24:39.460 your

01:24:39.660 fist

01:24:39.960 at

01:24:40.160 the

01:24:40.320 structure

01:24:40.640 of

01:24:40.820 being

01:24:41.060 rather

01:24:41.360 than

01:24:41.600 at

01:24:41.780 God

01:24:42.060 himself

01:24:42.540 but

01:24:42.820 it

01:24:43.140 doesn't

01:24:43.340 make

01:24:43.520 any

01:24:43.700 difference

01:24:44.180 except

01:24:44.960 in

01:24:45.220 the

01:24:45.360 details

01:24:45.820 so

01:24:50.160 God

01:24:50.520 responds

01:24:51.220 to

01:24:51.420 Cain

01:24:51.600 and

01:24:51.740 tells

01:24:52.020 him

01:24:52.180 that

01:24:52.400 he's

01:24:53.580 got

01:24:55.480 before

01:24:55.640 he

01:24:55.780 gets

01:24:55.940 his

01:24:56.100 sacrificial

01:24:56.580 house

01:24:56.900 in

01:24:57.060 order

01:24:57.300 and

01:24:58.280 even

01:24:58.480 worse

01:24:58.840 he

01:24:59.020 says

01:24:59.320 that

01:24:59.700 Cain

01:25:02.080 is

01:25:02.940 the

01:25:03.300 architect

01:25:04.040 of his

01:25:04.440 own

01:25:04.600 downfall

01:25:05.120 and

01:25:06.320 the

01:25:06.460 invited

01:25:06.880 catastrophe

01:25:08.460 into

01:25:09.380 his

01:25:09.620 own

01:25:09.780 house

01:25:10.040 willingly

01:25:10.960 and

01:25:12.260 entered

01:25:12.600 into

01:25:12.840 a

01:25:13.020 creative

01:25:13.300 union

01:25:13.640 with

01:25:13.900 it

01:25:14.080 and

01:25:14.540 therefore

01:25:14.840 brought

01:25:15.160 about

01:25:15.380 his

01:25:15.580 own

01:25:15.740 demise

01:25:16.120 and

01:25:17.240 it's

01:25:17.440 that

01:25:17.700 additional

01:25:18.220 self

01:25:18.600 knowledge

01:25:18.920 you can

01:25:19.220 imagine

01:25:19.560 too

01:25:19.840 you know

01:25:20.120 imagine

01:25:20.520 that

01:25:20.760 you're

01:25:21.540 facing

01:25:22.500 your

01:25:22.700 life

01:25:22.900 you're

01:25:23.080 facing

01:25:23.360 the

01:25:23.540 failures

01:25:23.880 of

01:25:24.060 your

01:25:24.180 life

01:25:24.400 and

01:25:24.540 let's

01:25:24.720 say

01:25:24.840 that

01:25:25.000 you've

01:25:25.200 had

01:25:25.440 a

01:25:25.960 failed

01:25:26.220 life

01:25:26.640 and

01:25:28.180 you're

01:25:28.360 bitter

01:25:28.540 about

01:25:28.900 that

01:25:29.220 and

01:25:29.600 then

01:25:29.760 you

01:25:29.960 meditate

01:25:30.340 upon

01:25:30.760 it

01:25:30.920 and

01:25:31.100 you

01:25:31.260 think

01:25:31.560 why

01:25:32.300 has

01:25:32.520 this

01:25:32.680 come

01:25:32.840 about

01:25:33.120 and

01:25:33.320 then

01:25:33.460 you

01:25:33.620 think

01:25:33.900 well

01:25:35.980 perhaps

01:25:36.300 I

01:25:36.460 did

01:25:36.600 something

01:25:36.900 wrong

01:25:37.280 you know

01:25:38.180 when

01:25:38.340 Alexander

01:25:38.820 Solzhenitsyn

01:25:39.460 wrote

01:25:39.760 the

01:25:39.900 Gulag

01:25:40.180 Archipelago

01:25:40.800 which

01:25:41.560 is

01:25:41.680 the

01:25:41.820 book

01:25:42.000 that

01:25:42.260 detailed

01:25:43.060 the

01:25:43.280 catastrophes

01:25:44.020 of

01:25:44.160 the

01:25:44.320 Soviet

01:25:44.600 Union

01:25:44.860 and

01:25:45.240 helped

01:25:45.460 bring

01:25:45.720 it

01:25:45.860 down

01:25:46.180 there's

01:25:47.800 one

01:25:48.020 part

01:25:48.500 of

01:25:48.560 that

01:25:48.700 book

01:25:48.880 that

01:25:49.020 just

01:25:49.200 struck

01:25:49.440 me

01:25:49.660 so

01:25:49.980 viciously

01:25:51.840 when

01:25:52.000 I

01:25:52.120 read

01:25:52.280 it

01:25:52.400 he

01:25:52.560 was

01:25:53.360 in

01:25:53.500 the

01:25:53.620 Gulag

01:25:54.620 and

01:25:55.140 he

01:25:55.300 was

01:25:55.600 there

01:25:55.740 for

01:25:55.880 a

01:25:56.000 very

01:25:56.120 long

01:25:56.300 time

01:25:56.560 and

01:25:56.700 he

01:25:57.800 said

01:25:58.140 that

01:25:59.060 he

01:25:59.600 observed

01:26:00.020 a variety

01:26:00.540 of

01:26:00.700 people

01:26:01.000 in

01:26:01.300 the

01:26:01.440 camps

01:26:01.700 who

01:26:01.860 he

01:26:02.020 really

01:26:02.280 admired

01:26:02.660 they

01:26:03.160 were

01:26:03.320 rare

01:26:03.600 they

01:26:04.040 were

01:26:04.160 usually

01:26:04.480 religious

01:26:04.900 believers

01:26:05.300 in

01:26:05.540 his

01:26:05.800 experience

01:26:06.980 who

01:26:07.820 were

01:26:08.160 not

01:26:08.900 participating

01:26:09.680 in the

01:26:10.180 pathology

01:26:10.760 of the

01:26:11.120 camps

01:26:11.480 at

01:26:12.040 all

01:26:12.420 period

01:26:13.100 no

01:26:13.840 matter

01:26:14.120 what

01:26:14.460 he

01:26:14.900 said

01:26:15.100 he

01:26:15.200 learned

01:26:15.460 a lot

01:26:15.760 from

01:26:15.960 watching

01:26:16.320 those

01:26:16.540 people

01:26:16.800 he

01:26:16.940 had

01:26:17.080 a

01:26:17.160 hard

01:26:17.300 time

01:26:17.500 believing

01:26:17.820 that

01:26:18.000 they

01:26:18.140 even

01:26:18.380 existed

01:26:18.820 that

01:26:19.020 they

01:26:19.140 could

01:26:19.300 even

01:26:19.500 exist

01:26:19.900 but

01:26:20.540 he

01:26:20.620 said

01:26:20.800 that

01:26:20.940 one

01:26:21.140 of

01:26:21.280 the

01:26:21.420 things

01:26:21.740 that

01:26:21.960 he

01:26:22.300 was

01:26:23.080 brought

01:26:23.540 to

01:26:23.940 as

01:26:24.520 a

01:26:24.660 consequence

01:26:25.100 of

01:26:25.440 watching

01:26:25.780 those

01:26:26.020 people

01:26:26.340 live

01:26:26.720 their

01:26:27.120 contract

01:26:28.820 with

01:26:29.400 goodness

01:26:29.900 out

01:26:30.260 even

01:26:30.620 under

01:26:30.900 the

01:26:31.060 most

01:26:31.300 horrifying

01:26:31.760 of

01:26:31.940 conditions

01:26:32.340 was

01:26:32.700 that

01:26:32.960 it

01:26:34.200 was

01:26:34.400 possible

01:26:35.000 that

01:26:35.300 he

01:26:35.560 himself

01:26:36.200 was

01:26:36.900 responsible

01:26:37.600 for

01:26:38.600 his

01:26:38.900 position

01:26:39.480 in

01:26:39.780 the

01:26:39.940 camp

01:26:40.300 now

01:26:40.780 it's

01:26:40.920 a

01:26:41.020 very

01:26:41.280 dangerous

01:26:42.240 line

01:26:42.580 of

01:26:42.700 argumentation

01:26:43.520 you know

01:26:44.080 because

01:26:44.460 who

01:26:45.000 wants

01:26:45.340 to

01:26:45.500 be

01:26:45.620 the

01:26:45.780 one

01:26:46.040 who

01:26:46.440 blames

01:26:46.800 the

01:26:47.000 victim

01:26:47.300 for

01:26:47.580 the

01:26:47.740 catastrophe

01:26:48.280 you know

01:26:48.780 you have

01:26:49.320 to be

01:26:49.540 very

01:26:49.780 careful

01:26:50.220 when you

01:26:50.580 walk

01:26:50.820 down

01:26:51.060 that

01:26:51.340 road

01:26:51.600 but

01:26:52.020 Solzhenitsyn

01:26:52.540 was

01:26:52.740 speaking

01:26:53.040 about

01:26:53.340 himself

01:26:53.780 and

01:26:54.820 he

01:26:54.960 said

01:26:55.220 well

01:26:55.380 he

01:26:55.520 was

01:26:55.700 a

01:26:55.820 communist

01:26:56.140 you

01:26:56.740 know

01:26:56.940 and

01:26:57.960 he

01:26:58.600 arrogantly

01:27:00.600 and

01:27:01.080 forthrightly

01:27:02.140 moved

01:27:02.920 the

01:27:03.180 movement

01:27:03.560 out

01:27:03.840 into

01:27:04.040 the

01:27:04.220 world

01:27:04.520 and

01:27:05.740 had

01:27:06.080 not

01:27:06.660 fully

01:27:07.220 gone

01:27:07.900 over

01:27:08.180 his

01:27:08.440 life

01:27:08.760 with

01:27:08.980 a

01:27:09.180 fine

01:27:09.500 tooth

01:27:09.740 comb

01:27:10.040 to

01:27:10.220 find

01:27:10.500 out

01:27:10.720 what

01:27:11.120 mistakes

01:27:11.760 he

01:27:11.960 had

01:27:12.120 made

01:27:12.420 that

01:27:12.640 brought

01:27:13.000 him

01:27:13.320 so

01:27:13.700 low

01:27:14.200 but

01:27:14.860 his

01:27:15.040 contention

01:27:15.540 eventually

01:27:15.980 was

01:27:16.340 that

01:27:16.600 part

01:27:17.200 of

01:27:17.320 the

01:27:17.440 reason

01:27:17.680 that

01:27:17.840 he

01:27:17.940 ended

01:27:18.140 up

01:27:18.400 where

01:27:19.240 he

01:27:19.400 ended

01:27:19.580 up

01:27:19.820 was

01:27:20.040 because

01:27:20.620 he

01:27:20.920 and

01:27:21.520 many

01:27:21.820 others

01:27:22.300 had

01:27:22.800 completely

01:27:23.260 forfeited

01:27:23.800 their

01:27:23.980 relationship

01:27:24.440 with

01:27:24.700 the

01:27:24.820 truth

01:27:25.060 and

01:27:25.200 allowed

01:27:25.480 their

01:27:25.660 society

01:27:26.060 to

01:27:26.320 degenerate

01:27:27.120 into

01:27:27.480 deceit

01:27:28.460 and

01:27:28.840 tyrannical

01:27:29.860 catastrophe

01:27:30.500 without

01:27:31.300 mounting

01:27:32.740 sufficient

01:27:33.420 opposition

01:27:34.120 and

01:27:35.260 so

01:27:35.400 he

01:27:35.560 decided

01:27:36.000 when

01:27:36.240 he

01:27:36.360 was

01:27:36.560 in

01:27:36.800 the

01:27:37.320 camps

01:27:37.700 to

01:27:38.360 straighten

01:27:39.500 himself

01:27:39.880 out

01:27:40.380 bit

01:27:40.760 by

01:27:41.020 bit

01:27:41.440 and

01:27:42.060 that

01:27:42.600 culminated

01:27:43.200 in

01:27:43.400 the

01:27:43.560 production

01:27:43.940 of

01:27:44.160 the

01:27:44.300 Gulag

01:27:44.600 archipelago

01:27:45.140 and

01:27:45.340 that

01:27:45.540 book

01:27:45.900 really

01:27:46.700 demolished

01:27:48.020 once and

01:27:48.620 for all

01:27:49.100 any

01:27:49.500 moral

01:27:49.820 credibility

01:27:50.420 that

01:27:51.100 the

01:27:51.260 communist

01:27:51.640 totalitarian

01:27:52.380 systems

01:27:52.860 had

01:27:53.140 left

01:27:53.480 and

01:27:54.660 so

01:27:54.820 one

01:27:55.120 man

01:27:55.520 in

01:27:55.780 the

01:27:56.160 depths

01:27:56.540 of

01:27:56.860 catastrophe

01:27:57.740 who

01:27:58.340 determined

01:27:58.920 through

01:27:59.240 good

01:27:59.520 example

01:28:00.000 at least

01:28:00.440 in

01:28:00.620 part

01:28:00.860 to

01:28:01.320 stop

01:28:01.760 lying

01:28:02.280 produced

01:28:03.020 a

01:28:03.240 book

01:28:03.560 eventually

01:28:04.420 that

01:28:05.060 demolished

01:28:05.900 the

01:28:06.680 foundation

01:28:07.320 of

01:28:07.460 the

01:28:07.560 very

01:28:07.760 system

01:28:08.140 that

01:28:08.340 had

01:28:08.520 imprisoned

01:28:08.900 him

01:28:09.160 and

01:28:09.500 that

01:28:09.740 is

01:28:09.920 really

01:28:10.280 worth

01:28:10.620 thinking

01:28:11.000 about

01:28:11.280 that's

01:28:11.860 one

01:28:12.280 example

01:28:13.080 of

01:28:13.360 the

01:28:13.620 absolute

01:28:14.540 grandeur

01:28:15.420 of the

01:28:15.760 human

01:28:16.080 soul

01:28:16.600 and

01:28:17.220 the

01:28:17.440 capacity

01:28:18.020 for

01:28:18.320 transformation

01:28:18.840 that

01:28:19.600 it

01:28:19.740 has

01:28:20.040 when

01:28:20.280 let

01:28:20.560 loose

01:28:21.000 properly

01:28:21.540 on

01:28:21.800 the

01:28:21.940 world

01:28:22.220 so

01:28:24.300 let's

01:28:24.600 say

01:28:24.760 you're

01:28:25.020 conceptualizing

01:28:25.860 your own

01:28:26.260 failure

01:28:26.700 you know

01:28:27.160 and

01:28:27.500 you

01:28:27.600 meditated

01:28:28.100 on

01:28:28.320 it

01:28:28.420 and

01:28:28.540 you

01:28:28.660 come

01:28:28.880 to

01:28:29.000 the

01:28:29.160 conclusion

01:28:29.600 that

01:28:30.240 God

01:28:30.560 forced

01:28:30.940 Cain

01:28:31.280 to

01:28:31.580 hey

01:28:32.020 not

01:28:32.280 only

01:28:32.600 have

01:28:33.140 things

01:28:33.400 not

01:28:33.640 been

01:28:33.820 going

01:28:34.080 very

01:28:34.340 well

01:28:34.560 for

01:28:34.740 you

01:28:34.960 but

01:28:35.740 it's

01:28:35.880 actually

01:28:36.220 your

01:28:36.460 fault

01:28:36.940 and

01:28:37.800 not

01:28:37.960 only

01:28:38.120 that

01:28:38.360 you

01:28:38.560 brought

01:28:39.020 it

01:28:39.180 on

01:28:39.440 yourself

01:28:39.960 and

01:28:40.340 not

01:28:40.500 only

01:28:40.640 that

01:28:40.880 you

01:28:41.100 knew

01:28:41.360 it

01:28:41.500 all

01:28:41.680 the

01:28:41.860 time

01:28:42.300 well

01:28:43.040 then

01:28:43.200 you

01:28:43.320 might

01:28:43.500 think

01:28:43.760 you'll

01:28:43.960 wake

01:28:44.200 up

01:28:44.460 and

01:28:44.880 fly

01:28:45.140 right

01:28:45.480 right

01:28:45.720 you'll

01:28:45.920 get

01:28:46.020 your

01:28:46.160 wings

01:28:46.380 in

01:28:46.540 order

01:28:46.740 and

01:28:46.880 fly

01:28:47.080 right

01:28:47.320 but

01:28:47.460 there's

01:28:47.800 no

01:28:47.940 reason

01:28:48.220 to

01:28:48.420 assume

01:28:48.720 that

01:28:48.900 at

01:28:49.000 all

01:28:49.180 and

01:28:49.300 that's

01:28:49.500 not

01:28:49.600 what

01:28:49.740 happens

01:28:50.000 to

01:28:50.160 Cain

01:28:50.460 that

01:28:51.660 just

01:28:51.860 makes

01:28:52.140 him

01:28:52.300 more

01:29:03.640 that

01:29:03.880 you

01:29:04.560 could

01:29:04.700 have

01:29:04.800 done

01:29:04.980 something

01:29:05.300 different

01:29:05.700 it

01:29:06.380 was

01:29:06.540 avoidable

01:29:07.020 and

01:29:07.360 you

01:29:07.480 knew

01:29:07.640 it

01:29:07.760 at

01:29:07.900 the

01:29:08.040 time

01:29:08.340 and

01:29:08.680 you

01:29:08.780 decided

01:29:09.180 to

01:29:09.380 do

01:29:09.500 it

01:29:09.620 anyways

01:29:10.020 and

01:29:10.680 I

01:29:10.800 think

01:29:10.980 people

01:29:11.240 are

01:29:11.380 in

01:29:11.500 that

01:29:11.660 situation

01:29:12.120 a lot

01:29:12.540 more

01:29:12.780 often

01:29:13.100 than

01:29:13.300 anyone

01:29:13.840 is

01:29:14.120 willing

01:29:14.340 to

01:29:14.560 admit

01:29:14.900 you

01:29:15.420 know

01:29:15.540 you

01:29:15.700 have

01:29:15.940 that

01:29:16.140 little

01:29:16.340 voice

01:29:16.660 in

01:29:16.780 the

01:29:16.880 back

01:29:17.080 of

01:29:17.180 your

01:29:17.240 head

01:29:17.440 that

01:29:17.600 says

01:29:18.000 don't

01:29:19.700 do

01:29:20.080 it

01:29:20.460 and

01:29:22.100 you

01:29:22.220 override

01:29:22.780 it

01:29:23.080 and

01:29:23.440 you

01:29:23.540 know

01:29:24.000 it's

01:29:24.500 arrogance

01:29:24.920 that

01:29:25.120 makes

01:29:25.340 you

01:29:25.480 override

01:29:25.900 it's

01:29:26.180 always

01:29:26.440 arrogance

01:29:26.860 you

01:29:27.180 know

01:29:27.340 it

01:29:27.620 always

01:29:27.900 warns

01:29:28.300 you

01:29:28.380 it's

01:29:28.500 always

01:29:28.780 arrogance

01:29:29.080 yeah

01:29:29.440 I

01:29:30.080 can

01:29:30.220 get

01:29:30.360 away

01:29:30.540 with

01:29:30.700 it

01:29:30.820 it's

01:29:30.980 like

01:29:31.180 no

01:29:31.760 you

01:29:31.960 can't

01:29:32.420 I

01:29:33.100 don't

01:29:33.280 think

01:29:33.500 you

01:29:33.640 ever

01:29:33.840 get

01:29:34.020 away

01:29:34.180 with

01:29:34.360 anything

01:29:34.800 so

01:29:35.660 and

01:29:35.820 maybe

01:29:36.020 your

01:29:36.260 experience

01:29:36.720 has

01:29:36.900 taught

01:29:37.100 you

01:29:37.240 different

01:29:37.580 but

01:29:37.780 my

01:29:38.020 suspicions

01:29:38.540 are

01:29:38.740 it

01:29:38.860 hasn't

01:29:39.280 and

01:29:39.480 if

01:29:39.900 you

01:29:40.040 think

01:29:40.300 it

01:29:40.440 has

01:29:40.720 well

01:29:40.960 the

01:29:41.460 other

01:29:41.640 shoe

01:29:41.900 hasn't

01:29:42.280 yet

01:29:42.500 dropped

01:29:43.040 so

01:29:44.340 Cain

01:29:44.840 doesn't

01:29:46.260 take

01:29:46.620 the

01:29:46.800 opportunity

01:29:47.320 to

01:29:47.780 let

01:29:48.060 God's

01:29:48.580 wisdom

01:29:49.120 reorient

01:29:51.180 his

01:29:51.440 character

01:29:51.880 and

01:29:52.320 that

01:29:52.580 that

01:29:53.260 could

01:29:53.440 have

01:29:53.540 been

01:29:53.700 the

01:29:53.860 outcome

01:29:54.240 he

01:29:54.880 could

01:29:55.100 have

01:29:55.280 got

01:29:55.760 down

01:29:56.020 on

01:29:56.200 his

01:29:56.360 knees

01:29:56.700 so

01:29:56.920 to

01:29:57.060 speak

01:29:57.280 and

01:29:57.440 said

01:29:57.600 oh

01:29:57.760 my

01:29:57.900 oh

01:29:58.500 my

01:29:58.640 god

01:29:58.960 I've

01:29:59.840 been

01:29:59.960 wrong

01:30:00.200 all

01:30:00.400 along

01:30:00.800 I've

01:30:01.040 been

01:30:01.160 living

01:30:01.440 improperly

01:30:02.100 I've

01:30:02.240 been

01:30:02.360 making

01:30:02.580 the

01:30:02.720 wrong

01:30:02.860 sacrifices

01:30:03.540 Abel

01:30:04.100 deserves

01:30:04.480 everything

01:30:04.840 he

01:30:05.000 has

01:30:05.360 I

01:30:06.300 got

01:30:06.520 exactly

01:30:06.920 what

01:30:07.120 was

01:30:07.280 coming

01:30:07.540 to

01:30:07.740 me

01:30:07.980 you

01:30:08.500 know

01:30:08.580 could

01:30:08.780 I

01:30:08.900 possibly

01:30:09.380 now

01:30:09.820 straighten

01:30:10.280 myself

01:30:10.680 out

01:30:10.980 and

01:30:11.140 and

01:30:11.640 live

01:30:14.000 in

01:30:14.220 repentance

01:30:14.660 and

01:30:14.980 improve

01:30:15.420 my

01:30:15.660 position

01:30:16.080 but

01:30:16.260 that's

01:30:16.460 not

01:30:16.580 what

01:30:16.720 he

01:30:16.820 did

01:30:17.060 at

01:30:17.280 all

01:30:17.540 he

01:30:17.740 said

01:30:17.980 all

01:30:18.140 right

01:30:18.340 fair

01:30:19.180 enough

01:30:19.460 I

01:30:20.720 get

01:30:20.940 it

01:30:21.220 it's

01:30:22.020 like

01:30:22.220 I'm

01:30:22.700 going to

01:30:22.820 go

01:30:22.960 after

01:30:23.180 the

01:30:23.380 thing

01:30:23.560 I

01:30:23.760 most

01:30:25.180 admire

01:30:25.600 and

01:30:26.440 I'm

01:30:26.600 going

01:30:26.700 to

01:30:26.800 destroy

01:30:27.200 it

01:30:27.480 and

01:30:28.000 I'm

01:30:28.140 going

01:30:28.260 to

01:30:28.340 do

01:30:28.460 that

01:30:28.680 despite

01:30:29.280 its

01:30:29.560 cost

01:30:29.900 to

01:30:30.080 me

01:30:30.300 and

01:30:30.740 I'm

01:30:30.900 going

01:30:31.000 to

01:30:31.080 do

01:30:31.200 that

01:30:31.420 just

01:30:31.900 to

01:30:32.180 spite

01:30:32.620 the

01:30:32.880 creator

01:30:33.340 of

01:30:33.600 being

01:30:34.000 that's

01:30:35.620 exactly

01:30:36.000 what

01:30:36.340 Harris

01:30:37.000 did

01:30:37.340 at

01:30:38.240 Columbine

01:30:44.000 why

01:30:44.240 the

01:30:44.440 mass

01:30:44.740 murderers

01:30:45.160 always

01:30:45.400 shoot

01:30:45.640 themselves

01:30:46.060 afterwards

01:30:46.700 not

01:30:47.220 before

01:30:47.760 because

01:30:48.500 you

01:30:48.620 might

01:30:48.800 wonder

01:30:49.080 if

01:30:49.280 you're

01:30:49.420 so

01:30:49.800 upset

01:30:50.620 with

01:30:50.900 the

01:30:51.060 structure

01:30:51.360 of

01:30:51.540 being

01:30:51.760 why

01:30:51.940 you

01:30:52.080 don't

01:30:52.280 just

01:30:52.460 commit

01:30:52.740 suicide

01:30:53.180 in

01:30:53.460 your

01:30:53.580 basement

01:30:53.960 why

01:30:54.200 do

01:30:54.280 you

01:30:54.360 have

01:30:54.580 to

01:30:54.700 go

01:30:54.820 out

01:30:55.000 and

01:30:55.120 mass

01:30:55.940 murder

01:30:56.400 before

01:30:57.020 you

01:30:57.220 top

01:30:57.620 it

01:30:57.760 off

01:30:57.980 with

01:30:58.140 a

01:30:58.300 gun

01:30:58.520 to

01:30:58.720 your

01:30:58.880 forehead

01:30:59.320 well

01:31:00.280 you

01:31:00.380 don't

01:31:00.520 make

01:31:00.700 the

01:31:00.840 point

01:31:01.060 as

01:31:01.220 effectively

01:31:01.700 if

01:31:01.960 you

01:31:02.060 just

01:31:02.240 commit

01:31:02.500 suicide

01:31:02.860 in

01:31:03.100 your

01:31:03.220 basement

01:31:03.600 it's

01:31:04.360 like

01:31:04.640 my

01:31:05.260 life

01:31:06.180 means

01:31:06.480 nothing

01:31:06.880 to

01:31:07.100 me

01:31:07.340 but

01:31:08.280 neither

01:31:08.860 does

01:31:09.120 anyone

01:31:09.380 else's

01:31:09.840 and

01:31:10.000 neither

01:31:10.220 does

01:31:10.440 the

01:31:10.660 structure

01:31:11.000 of

01:31:11.220 being

01:31:11.460 itself

01:31:11.900 and

01:31:12.100 I'll

01:31:12.240 take

01:31:12.480 all

01:31:12.640 my

01:31:12.820 revenge

01:31:13.160 as

01:31:13.340 much

01:31:13.580 as

01:31:13.700 I

01:31:13.820 possibly

01:31:14.220 can

01:31:14.540 and

01:31:14.960 then

01:31:15.120 just

01:31:15.360 to

01:31:15.560 show

01:31:15.860 you

01:31:16.020 how

01:31:16.200 little

01:31:16.460 I

01:31:16.680 care

01:31:17.120 I'll

01:31:17.600 cap

01:31:17.880 myself

01:31:18.320 off

01:31:18.600 at

01:31:18.740 the

01:31:18.860 end

01:31:19.140 and

01:31:20.020 I

01:31:20.160 would

01:31:20.300 say

01:31:20.520 also

01:31:20.820 people

01:31:21.140 say

01:31:21.420 all

01:31:21.580 the

01:31:21.680 time

01:31:21.940 I

01:31:23.400 don't

01:31:23.620 understand

01:31:24.120 how

01:31:24.320 that

01:31:24.540 could

01:31:24.700 happen

01:31:25.140 it's

01:31:26.180 like

01:31:26.400 I

01:31:26.700 don't

01:31:26.900 believe

01:31:27.240 that

01:31:27.580 I

01:31:28.680 think

01:31:35.260 darkest

01:31:35.680 feelings

01:31:36.300 about

01:31:36.720 existence

01:31:37.480 itself

01:31:38.160 illuminates

01:31:39.440 the pathway

01:31:40.040 to that

01:31:40.460 sort of

01:31:40.780 behavior

01:31:41.120 quite

01:31:41.440 clearly

01:31:41.840 I

01:31:43.400 think

01:31:43.640 if

01:31:43.860 you

01:31:43.980 I

01:31:44.380 mean

01:31:44.520 I

01:31:44.660 might

01:31:44.820 be

01:31:44.980 wrong

01:31:45.260 I

01:31:45.420 might

01:31:45.720 be

01:31:45.840 a

01:31:45.980 darker

01:31:46.260 person

01:31:46.720 than

01:31:46.960 most

01:31:47.320 and

01:31:47.500 it's

01:31:47.720 certain

01:31:47.940 okay

01:31:51.900 okay

01:31:52.560 well

01:31:59.040 at least

01:31:59.420 I

01:31:59.620 think

01:31:59.820 there

01:31:59.980 are

01:32:00.100 plenty

01:32:00.380 of

01:32:00.800 people

01:32:01.080 out

01:32:01.260 there

01:32:01.440 who

01:32:01.620 are

01:32:01.760 sufficiently

01:32:02.280 dark

01:32:02.640 to

01:32:02.780 know

01:32:02.920 exactly

01:32:03.320 what

01:32:03.520 I

01:32:03.660 mean

01:32:03.840 what

01:32:04.000 I'm

01:32:04.160 saying

01:32:04.420 these

01:32:04.680 things

01:32:04.920 and

01:32:05.080 I

01:32:05.200 would

01:32:05.360 also

01:32:05.640 say

01:32:05.940 that

01:32:06.140 if

01:32:06.340 it

01:32:07.060 doesn't

01:32:07.460 leap

01:32:07.740 to

01:32:07.920 your

01:32:08.100 understanding

01:32:08.800 how

01:32:09.160 that

01:32:09.440 pathway

01:32:09.860 might

01:32:10.120 be

01:32:10.280 illuminated

01:32:10.800 then

01:32:11.120 you

01:32:11.580 need

01:32:11.800 to

01:32:11.940 know

01:32:12.100 a lot

01:32:12.380 more

01:32:12.620 about

01:32:12.860 yourself

01:32:13.280 than

01:32:13.520 you

01:32:13.660 actually

01:32:14.020 know

01:32:14.280 now

01:32:14.660 because

01:32:15.800 whatever

01:32:16.160 you

01:32:16.420 might

01:32:16.600 say

01:32:16.820 about

01:32:17.060 someone

01:32:17.340 like

01:32:17.660 Eric

01:32:17.940 Harris

01:32:18.260 he

01:32:18.420 was

01:32:18.580 a

01:32:18.700 human

01:32:18.920 being

01:32:19.280 too

01:32:19.580 you

01:32:20.060 know

01:32:20.240 there's

01:32:20.940 this

01:32:21.140 idea

01:32:21.480 in

01:32:21.640 the

01:32:21.740 New

01:32:21.900 Testament

01:32:22.300 that

01:32:22.660 Christ

01:32:23.000 was

01:32:23.240 he

01:32:23.460 who

01:32:23.700 took

01:32:23.960 the

01:32:24.180 sins

01:32:24.420 of

01:32:24.560 the

01:32:24.680 world

01:32:24.920 unto

01:32:25.200 himself

01:32:25.740 it's

01:32:26.000 a

01:32:26.080 very complicated

01:32:26.720 idea

01:32:27.220 but

01:32:27.420 part

01:32:27.700 of it

01:32:27.900 part

01:32:29.440 of it

01:32:29.680 part

01:32:30.740 of it

01:32:30.940 is

01:32:31.060 associated

01:32:31.600 with

01:32:31.900 the

01:32:32.100 idea

01:32:32.400 that

01:32:32.580 he

01:32:32.680 met

01:32:32.880 the

01:32:33.040 devil

01:32:33.280 in

01:32:33.440 the

01:32:33.560 desert

01:32:33.860 as

01:32:34.100 well

01:32:34.380 to

01:32:35.580 take

01:32:35.800 the

01:32:35.980 sins

01:32:36.260 of

01:32:36.420 mankind

01:32:36.660 unto

01:32:37.100 yourself

01:32:37.500 is

01:32:37.740 to

01:32:37.900 understand

01:32:38.460 that

01:32:38.720 within

01:32:39.000 you

01:32:39.220 dwells

01:32:39.640 exactly

01:32:40.040 the

01:32:40.260 same

01:32:40.460 spirit

01:32:40.820 that

01:32:41.080 commit

01:32:41.740 the

01:32:42.260 atrocities

01:32:42.820 at

01:32:43.020 Columbine

01:32:43.520 or

01:32:43.720 that

01:32:43.920 ran

01:32:44.720 the

01:32:44.920 camps

01:32:45.240 at

01:32:45.400 Auschwitz

01:32:45.920 and

01:32:46.120 to

01:32:46.280 actually

01:32:46.700 understand

01:32:47.320 that

01:32:47.520 that's

01:32:47.780 part

01:32:48.040 and

01:32:48.200 parcel

01:32:48.460 of

01:32:48.660 your

01:32:48.800 makeup

01:32:49.100 and

01:32:49.360 then

01:32:49.620 to

01:32:49.800 take

01:32:50.040 responsibility

01:32:50.640 for

01:32:51.160 it

01:32:51.340 and

01:32:51.860 I

01:32:52.020 think

01:32:52.300 that

01:32:52.540 in

01:32:52.940 the

01:32:53.100 aftermath

01:32:53.460 of

01:32:53.820 the

01:32:53.980 terrible

01:32:54.300 20th

01:32:54.760 century

01:32:55.100 that's

01:32:55.480 what

01:32:55.620 we're

01:32:55.800 left

01:32:56.040 with

01:32:56.280 we're

01:32:56.580 left

01:32:56.860 with

01:32:57.100 the

01:32:57.240 necessity

01:32:57.700 to

01:32:58.040 take

01:32:58.280 responsibility

01:32:58.900 for

01:32:59.360 the

01:32:59.500 most

01:32:59.700 terrible

01:33:00.060 aspects

01:33:00.580 of

01:33:00.780 ourselves

01:33:01.260 and

01:33:02.380 that

01:33:02.580 way

01:33:02.760 perhaps

01:33:03.200 we

01:33:03.400 can

01:33:03.540 stop

01:33:03.860 those

01:33:04.080 terrible

01:33:04.400 things

01:33:04.720 from

01:33:04.900 happening

01:33:05.260 again

01:33:05.680 that's

01:33:06.540 all

01:33:06.700 and

01:33:14.660 that

01:33:14.820 also

01:33:15.100 means

01:33:15.480 you

01:33:15.640 know

01:33:15.760 that

01:33:15.920 you

01:33:16.060 don't

01:33:16.300 look

01:33:16.520 for

01:33:16.780 the

01:33:17.340 you

01:33:17.720 don't

01:33:17.960 look

01:33:18.200 for

01:33:18.440 the

01:33:18.700 purveyor

01:33:21.140 of

01:33:21.340 malevolence

01:33:22.000 outside

01:33:22.380 yourself

01:33:23.020 right

01:33:24.180 it

01:33:24.620 isn't

01:33:24.980 someone

01:33:25.320 else

01:33:25.700 even

01:33:25.940 though

01:33:26.160 sometimes

01:33:26.660 it's

01:33:26.920 someone

01:33:27.140 else

01:33:27.480 you

01:33:27.640 know

01:33:27.740 what

01:33:28.120 I

01:33:28.260 mean

01:33:28.500 it's

01:33:28.780 like

01:33:29.000 they're

01:33:29.460 identifiable

01:33:30.260 perpetrators

01:33:30.940 but that's

01:33:31.380 not

01:33:31.540 precisely

01:33:31.960 the

01:33:32.200 point

01:33:32.540 the

01:33:33.180 point

01:33:33.420 is

01:33:33.600 something

01:33:33.920 more

01:33:34.220 like

01:33:34.540 that

01:33:34.800 the

01:33:35.000 proper

01:33:35.340 place

01:33:35.760 for

01:33:35.960 the

01:33:36.140 encapsulation

01:33:36.980 of

01:33:37.160 that

01:33:37.340 malevolence

01:33:37.920 at least

01:33:38.260 the

01:33:38.440 proper

01:33:38.700 place

01:33:38.980 to

01:33:39.140 start

01:33:39.400 is

01:33:39.660 within

01:33:40.920 the

01:33:41.260 confines

01:33:41.720 of

01:33:41.900 your

01:33:42.020 own

01:33:42.180 existence

01:33:42.560 and

01:33:43.220 then

01:33:43.380 perhaps

01:33:43.740 within

01:33:44.000 the

01:33:44.160 confines

01:33:44.540 of

01:33:48.700 a danger

01:33:49.200 to

01:33:49.440 those

01:33:49.740 that

01:33:49.920 you

01:33:50.060 misapprehend

01:33:50.840 as

01:33:51.120 malevolent

01:33:51.740 and

01:33:51.900 evil

01:33:52.160 because

01:33:52.680 you

01:33:52.880 won't

01:33:53.100 get

01:33:53.280 your

01:33:53.420 aim

01:33:53.620 right

01:33:53.820 to

01:33:53.980 begin

01:33:54.220 with

01:33:54.500 you'll

01:33:55.240 identify

01:33:55.700 them

01:33:56.480 improperly

01:33:57.220 and

01:33:57.920 you'll

01:33:58.100 take

01:33:58.340 your

01:33:58.520 revenge

01:33:59.060 in

01:33:59.920 a

01:34:00.020 manner

01:34:00.240 that

01:34:00.460 allows

01:34:00.860 you

01:34:01.160 to

01:34:02.820 omit

01:34:03.140 your

01:34:03.320 own

01:34:03.480 responsibility

01:34:04.240 to

01:34:05.340 act

01:34:05.740 out

01:34:05.960 your

01:34:06.220 unconscious

01:34:06.760 desire

01:34:07.360 for

01:34:07.600 revenge

01:34:08.040 and

01:34:08.780 to

01:34:08.980 move

01:34:09.340 the

01:34:09.520 world

01:34:09.820 just

01:34:10.120 that

01:34:10.380 much

01:34:10.620 closer

01:34:11.000 to

01:34:11.220 hell

01:34:11.500 well

01:34:17.240 so

01:34:17.400 Cain

01:34:17.720 kills

01:34:18.020 Abel

01:34:18.400 and

01:34:19.820 then

01:34:19.980 Cain

01:34:20.220 gives

01:34:20.440 rise

01:34:20.660 to

01:34:20.800 his

01:34:20.940 descendants

01:34:21.320 one

01:34:21.620 of

01:34:21.740 whom

01:34:21.920 is

01:34:22.100 the

01:34:22.260 person

01:34:22.560 who

01:34:22.740 is

01:34:22.840 the

01:34:22.980 first

01:34:23.260 artificer

01:34:23.860 in

01:34:24.020 weapons

01:34:24.340 of

01:34:24.500 war

01:34:24.780 and

01:34:25.640 then

01:34:25.820 comes

01:34:26.100 the

01:34:26.260 flood

01:34:26.540 right

01:34:27.220 which

01:34:28.200 seems

01:34:28.480 perfectly

01:34:29.080 miraculously

01:34:30.680 reasonable

01:34:31.240 to me

01:34:31.660 because

01:34:32.000 what

01:34:32.260 those

01:34:32.520 stories

01:34:32.880 do

01:34:33.180 it's

01:34:33.420 so

01:34:33.620 amazing

01:34:34.040 that

01:34:34.320 the

01:34:34.780 story

01:34:35.040 of

01:34:35.220 Cain

01:34:35.400 and Abel

01:34:35.760 segues

01:34:36.700 into

01:34:36.980 the

01:34:37.200 story

01:34:37.480 of

01:34:37.640 the

01:34:37.780 flood

01:34:38.020 because

01:34:38.440 it

01:34:39.520 is

01:34:39.720 the

01:34:39.900 case

01:34:40.220 that

01:34:40.600 the

01:34:41.640 catastrophes

01:34:42.460 that

01:34:42.660 beset

01:34:43.080 society

01:34:43.560 can

01:34:43.820 best

01:34:44.100 be

01:34:44.320 conceptualized

01:34:45.160 as

01:34:45.400 the

01:34:45.580 spread

01:34:45.980 of

01:34:46.160 individual

01:34:46.660 pathology

01:34:47.400 into

01:34:47.680 the

01:34:47.920 social

01:34:48.220 world

01:34:48.640 and

01:34:49.440 the

01:34:49.640 magnification

01:34:53.440 of that

01:34:53.860 pathology

01:34:54.460 to the

01:34:54.760 point

01:34:54.980 where

01:34:55.160 everything

01:34:55.440 comes

01:34:55.760 apart

01:34:56.080 and

01:34:56.960 I

01:34:57.080 truly

01:34:57.360 believe

01:34:57.720 that

01:34:57.940 if

01:34:58.080 you

01:34:58.220 familiarize

01:34:58.960 yourself

01:34:59.340 with

01:34:59.560 the

01:34:59.680 last

01:34:59.920 hundred

01:35:00.140 years

01:35:00.420 of

01:35:00.580 history

01:35:00.880 that

01:35:01.080 that's

01:35:01.340 the

01:35:01.460 conclusion

01:35:01.820 that

01:35:02.040 you

01:35:02.160 would

01:35:02.300 derive

01:35:02.680 and

01:35:03.500 the

01:35:03.620 people

01:35:03.860 who

01:35:04.040 are

01:35:04.160 most

01:35:04.480 wise

01:35:04.920 that

01:35:05.160 I've

01:35:05.400 read

01:35:05.640 who

01:35:05.820 commented

01:35:06.300 on

01:35:06.560 that

01:35:06.780 say

01:35:07.000 the

01:35:07.180 same

01:35:07.380 thing

01:35:07.680 over

01:35:07.960 and

01:35:08.080 over

01:35:08.300 which

01:35:08.820 is

01:35:09.080 the

01:35:10.660 key

01:35:14.320 of

01:35:15.840 the

01:35:16.140 horrors

01:35:16.820 of

01:35:17.460 Auschwitz

01:35:18.100 and

01:35:18.720 the

01:35:18.920 gulag

01:35:19.460 in the

01:35:19.820 future

01:35:20.220 is

01:35:21.020 the

01:35:21.220 reconstruction

01:35:21.800 of

01:35:22.800 the

01:35:22.960 individual

01:35:23.440 soul

01:35:24.100 at

01:35:24.840 the

01:35:25.080 level

01:35:25.420 of

01:35:25.920 each

01:35:26.160 individual

01:35:26.680 and

01:35:28.120 that's

01:35:28.520 a

01:35:29.060 terrible

01:35:29.340 message

01:35:29.760 because

01:35:30.060 it

01:35:30.220 puts

01:35:30.380 the

01:35:30.560 burden

01:35:30.780 on

01:35:31.160 you

01:35:31.960 but

01:35:33.160 it's

01:35:33.320 an

01:35:33.460 amazing

01:35:33.940 message

01:35:34.380 because

01:35:34.760 it

01:35:35.220 also

01:35:35.500 means

01:35:35.860 that

01:35:36.060 you

01:35:36.260 could

01:35:36.440 be

01:35:36.580 the

01:35:36.800 source

01:35:37.220 of

01:35:37.940 the

01:35:38.100 process

01:35:38.780 that

01:35:39.540 stops

01:35:40.160 that

01:35:40.580 catastrophe

01:35:41.620 and

01:35:41.920 malevolence

01:35:42.640 from

01:35:43.140 ever

01:35:43.400 emerging

01:35:43.840 again

01:35:44.300 and

01:35:45.600 you

01:35:45.720 know

01:35:45.840 it's

01:35:46.040 hard

01:35:46.260 for

01:35:46.700 me

01:35:46.840 to

01:35:46.980 imagine

01:35:47.340 that

01:35:47.580 you

01:35:47.740 have

01:35:47.920 anything

01:35:48.240 that

01:35:49.400 could

01:35:49.580 possibly

01:35:50.200 be

01:35:50.600 better

01:35:50.900 to

01:35:51.120 do

01:35:51.380 with

01:35:52.000 the

01:35:52.200 time

01:35:52.480 that

01:35:52.660 you

01:35:52.800 have

01:35:53.020 left

01:35:53.440 well

01:35:55.680 then

01:35:55.840 we

01:35:56.000 see

01:35:56.200 Noah

01:35:56.460 who

01:35:56.680 walks

01:35:57.060 with

01:35:57.280 God

01:35:57.600 and

01:35:57.760 whose

01:35:57.980 generations

01:35:59.400 are

01:35:59.720 in

01:35:59.880 order

01:36:00.160 right

01:36:00.520 which

01:36:01.180 means

01:36:01.440 that

01:36:01.620 he's

01:36:02.000 entered

01:36:03.140 this

01:36:03.420 contract

01:36:03.800 with

01:36:04.180 the

01:36:04.340 good

01:36:04.600 let's

01:36:04.960 say

01:36:05.200 that

01:36:05.720 has

01:36:06.000 the

01:36:06.300 protective

01:36:07.180 function

01:36:08.280 of

01:36:08.520 the

01:36:08.700 ark

01:36:09.000 he's

01:36:09.660 put

01:36:09.840 his

01:36:10.000 family

01:36:10.300 together

01:36:10.740 and

01:36:11.220 he

01:36:11.320 can

01:36:11.440 ride

01:36:11.720 out

01:36:11.900 the

01:36:12.080 worst

01:36:12.280 catastrophe

01:36:12.860 and

01:36:13.120 he's

01:36:13.320 actually

01:36:13.620 our

01:36:13.820 ancestor

01:36:14.400 right

01:36:14.660 so

01:36:14.860 interesting

01:36:15.320 it's

01:36:15.580 that

01:36:15.720 these

01:36:15.940 people

01:36:16.280 who

01:36:16.940 get

01:36:17.500 their

01:36:17.740 act

01:36:18.020 together

01:36:18.340 properly

01:36:18.940 and

01:36:20.040 make

01:36:20.340 a

01:36:20.520 contract

01:36:20.880 with

01:36:21.220 the

01:36:21.360 good

01:36:21.520 are

01:36:21.660 constantly

01:36:22.320 presented

01:36:22.960 as

01:36:23.240 the

01:36:23.440 genuine

01:36:23.940 ancestors

01:36:24.540 of

01:36:24.820 mankind

01:36:25.120 and

01:36:25.420 that's

01:36:25.660 a

01:36:25.780 really

01:36:25.980 positive

01:36:26.520 element

01:36:27.700 of

01:36:27.900 the

01:36:28.060 story

01:36:28.320 as

01:36:28.460 well

01:36:28.580 and

01:36:28.720 it's

01:36:28.860 one

01:36:29.020 I

01:36:29.140 believe

01:36:29.500 because

01:36:29.880 well

01:36:30.620 it

01:36:30.720 hasn't

01:36:31.120 been

01:36:31.260 easy

01:36:31.540 for

01:36:31.740 us

01:36:31.880 to

01:36:32.040 get

01:36:32.260 here

01:36:32.500 you

01:36:32.680 know

01:36:32.800 we

01:36:32.960 are

01:36:33.120 the

01:36:33.280 descendants

01:36:33.700 of

01:36:33.960 the

01:36:34.100 great

01:36:34.340 heroes

01:36:34.680 of

01:36:34.880 the

01:36:35.040 past

01:36:35.500 and

01:36:36.060 if

01:36:36.200 you

01:36:36.320 took

01:36:36.540 all

01:36:36.700 those

01:36:36.880 heroes

01:36:37.180 and

01:36:37.380 you

01:36:37.520 and

01:36:38.040 you

01:36:38.260 and

01:36:39.080 you

01:36:39.300 and

01:36:40.740 you

01:36:40.860 told

01:36:41.140 their

01:36:41.300 stories

01:36:41.620 and

01:36:41.760 you

01:36:41.880 distilled

01:36:42.320 their

01:36:42.540 stories

01:36:42.860 into

01:36:43.060 a

01:36:43.260 single

01:36:43.500 story

01:36:43.860 maybe

01:36:44.100 you'd

01:36:44.300 have

01:36:44.460 a

01:36:44.580 story

01:36:44.820 like

01:36:45.040 the

01:36:45.200 story

01:36:45.460 of

01:36:45.600 Noah

01:36:45.780 or

01:36:45.980 the

01:36:46.100 story

01:36:46.360 of

01:36:46.500 Abraham

01:36:46.840 you know

01:36:48.180 the

01:36:48.600 story

01:36:48.880 of

01:36:49.060 the

01:36:49.220 successful

01:36:49.780 the

01:36:50.220 story

01:36:50.460 of

01:36:50.640 our

01:36:50.780 forefathers

01:36:51.460 you know

01:36:52.280 and

01:36:52.460 not

01:36:52.640 the

01:36:52.840 cancer

01:36:53.240 on

01:36:53.480 the

01:36:53.620 planet

01:36:54.020 that

01:36:54.320 certain

01:36:54.680 people

01:36:55.000 tend

01:36:55.260 to

01:37:03.960 something

01:37:04.280 like

01:37:04.580 hell

01:37:04.920 and

01:37:06.140 so

01:37:06.260 Noah

01:37:06.520 rides

01:37:06.860 out

01:37:07.020 the

01:37:07.180 storm

01:37:07.420 and

01:37:07.580 that's

01:37:07.840 what

01:37:07.960 everyone

01:37:08.240 wants

01:37:08.600 because

01:37:08.760 you

01:37:08.880 want

01:37:09.060 to

01:37:09.160 ride

01:37:09.340 out

01:37:09.500 the

01:37:09.680 storm

01:37:09.960 you

01:37:10.380 don't

01:37:10.540 want

01:37:10.700 to

01:37:10.780 be

01:37:10.920 happy

01:37:11.360 because

01:37:12.240 that'll

01:37:12.540 just

01:37:12.740 happen

01:37:13.140 if

01:37:13.500 it

01:37:13.620 does

01:37:13.860 or

01:37:13.980 if

01:37:14.120 it

01:37:14.240 doesn't

01:37:14.600 but

01:37:14.940 you

01:37:15.060 definitely

01:37:15.560 want

01:37:15.920 to

01:37:16.040 constitute

01:37:16.460 yourself

01:37:16.940 so

01:37:17.160 that

01:37:17.300 you

01:37:17.440 can

01:37:17.580 ride

01:37:17.800 out

01:37:17.960 the

01:37:18.160 storm

01:37:18.440 because

01:37:19.000 the

01:37:19.140 storm

01:37:19.420 is

01:37:19.580 always

01:37:19.840 coming

01:37:20.180 and

01:37:20.920 so

01:37:21.100 then

01:37:21.300 you're

01:37:21.480 fortified

01:37:21.900 against

01:37:22.180 the

01:37:22.400 worst

01:37:22.720 and

01:37:22.880 that's

01:37:23.080 what

01:37:23.220 you

01:37:23.340 want

01:37:23.680 because

01:37:24.260 well

01:37:25.460 the

01:37:25.640 best

01:37:25.960 you

01:37:26.140 can

01:37:26.300 handle

01:37:26.720 the

01:37:28.220 worst

01:37:28.500 you

01:37:28.660 have

01:37:28.840 to

01:37:28.980 prepare

01:37:29.280 yourself

01:37:29.720 for

01:37:30.060 and

01:37:30.840 then

01:37:30.940 we

01:37:31.080 see

01:37:31.240 the

01:37:31.420 same

01:37:31.620 thing

01:37:31.840 repeated

01:37:32.220 in

01:37:32.420 the

01:37:32.560 story

01:37:32.820 of

01:37:32.960 Abraham

01:37:33.280 essentially

01:37:33.900 right

01:37:34.280 Abraham

01:37:34.580 makes

01:37:34.960 this

01:37:35.200 contract

01:37:35.560 with

01:37:35.920 the

01:37:36.060 good

01:37:36.340 and

01:37:37.060 constantly

01:37:37.580 renews

01:37:38.080 it

01:37:38.180 that's

01:37:38.460 his

01:37:38.620 sacrifice

01:37:39.240 and

01:37:39.440 his

01:37:39.600 worship

01:37:39.940 he

01:37:40.160 constantly

01:37:40.560 renews

01:37:41.020 it

01:37:41.180 and

01:37:41.600 he

01:37:41.700 has

01:37:41.960 the

01:37:42.600 adventures

01:37:43.120 that

01:37:43.440 are

01:37:43.620 sufficiently

01:37:44.500 typical

01:37:45.060 of

01:37:45.300 the

01:37:45.420 adventures

01:37:45.800 of

01:37:46.020 a

01:37:46.120 human

01:37:46.340 being

01:37:46.740 who's

01:37:47.280 alive

01:37:47.740 and

01:37:48.000 engaging

01:37:48.660 in

01:37:48.900 the

01:37:49.000 world

01:37:49.340 right

01:37:49.860 he

01:37:50.300 bumps

01:37:51.160 himself

01:37:51.620 up

01:37:51.880 against

01:37:52.160 all

01:37:52.400 the

01:37:52.560 horrors

01:37:53.000 of

01:37:53.160 existence

01:37:53.660 and

01:37:54.540 yet

01:37:54.760 the

01:37:55.040 story

01:37:55.420 is

01:37:56.280 told

01:37:56.780 in

01:37:57.760 such

01:37:58.000 a

01:37:58.140 manner

01:37:58.340 that

01:37:58.580 reveals

01:37:59.080 that

01:37:59.340 his

01:37:59.580 primary

01:38:00.340 ethical

01:38:00.900 commitment

01:38:01.440 to

01:38:01.720 the

01:38:01.940 overarching

01:38:02.540 good

01:38:03.200 is

01:38:03.960 sufficient

01:38:04.400 to

01:38:05.320 protect

01:38:06.140 him

01:38:06.360 against

01:38:06.660 the

01:38:06.840 vicissitudes

01:38:07.380 of

01:38:07.580 existence

01:38:08.060 well

01:38:09.740 that's

01:38:10.220 an

01:38:10.340 optimistic

01:38:10.740 story

01:38:11.260 and

01:38:11.560 as a

01:38:12.360 pessimistic

01:38:12.940 person

01:38:13.360 I

01:38:14.140 appreciate

01:38:14.760 an

01:38:15.300 optimistic

01:38:15.740 story

01:38:16.160 that's

01:38:16.520 believable

01:38:17.140 and

01:38:18.180 there's

01:38:18.420 great

01:38:19.340 demands

01:38:19.780 placed

01:38:20.100 on

01:38:20.300 Abraham

01:38:20.560 it's

01:38:20.820 not

01:38:20.980 as

01:38:21.140 if

01:38:21.300 this

01:38:21.500 just

01:38:21.720 comes

01:38:21.960 to

01:38:22.120 him

01:38:22.320 as

01:38:23.020 a

01:38:23.140 gift

01:38:23.440 he

01:38:24.060 has

01:38:24.240 to

01:38:24.360 be

01:38:24.480 willing

01:38:24.680 to

01:38:24.880 sacrifice

01:38:25.460 whatever

01:38:25.780 is

01:38:26.020 necessary

01:38:26.580 in

01:38:26.820 order

01:38:26.960 to

01:38:27.140 maintain

01:38:27.420 that

01:38:27.640 contract

01:38:28.000 and

01:38:28.220 so

01:38:28.380 that

01:38:28.920 seems

01:38:29.200 to

01:38:29.340 me

01:38:29.460 to

01:38:29.540 be

01:38:29.680 realistic

01:38:30.120 there's

01:38:30.780 no

01:38:30.960 reason

01:38:31.260 to

01:38:31.460 assume

01:38:31.780 that

01:38:31.980 life

01:38:32.240 isn't

01:38:32.460 so

01:38:32.620 difficult

01:38:33.000 that

01:38:33.240 it

01:38:33.360 actually

01:38:33.740 demands

01:38:34.260 the

01:38:34.440 best

01:38:34.920 from

01:38:35.200 you

01:38:35.420 that

01:38:36.220 it's

01:38:36.380 actually

01:38:36.720 structured

01:38:37.200 in

01:38:37.400 that

01:38:37.600 manner

01:38:37.940 and

01:38:38.660 that

01:38:38.760 if

01:38:38.900 you

01:38:39.460 were

01:38:39.600 willing

01:38:39.840 to

01:38:40.040 reveal

01:38:40.440 the

01:38:40.680 best

01:38:41.120 in

01:38:41.620 you

01:38:41.940 in

01:38:42.400 response

01:38:43.000 to

01:38:43.240 the

01:38:43.400 vicissitudes

01:38:44.020 of

01:38:44.220 life

01:38:44.500 that

01:38:44.980 you

01:38:45.160 might

01:38:45.460 actually

01:38:45.840 prevail

01:38:46.280 and

01:38:46.800 you

01:38:46.920 might

01:38:47.100 actually

01:38:47.420 set

01:38:47.840 things

01:38:48.180 straight

01:38:48.540 around

01:38:48.900 you

01:38:49.180 and

01:38:50.300 well

01:38:53.000 and what

01:38:53.300 if that

01:38:53.560 was

01:38:53.720 true

01:38:54.020 that

01:38:56.380 would

01:38:56.500 be

01:38:56.620 a

01:38:56.740 remarkable

01:38:57.100 thing

01:38:57.540 and

01:38:59.100 I

01:38:59.260 can't

01:38:59.740 see

01:38:59.920 how

01:39:00.100 it

01:39:00.220 cannot

01:39:00.560 be

01:39:00.820 true

01:39:01.120 and

01:39:02.100 I

01:39:02.400 can't

01:39:03.000 see

01:39:03.160 that

01:39:03.340 it's

01:39:03.480 not

01:39:03.640 stamped

01:39:04.180 on

01:39:04.420 the

01:39:04.640 soul

01:39:04.960 of

01:39:05.160 everyone

01:39:05.480 who's

01:39:05.780 conscious

01:39:06.180 I

01:39:07.060 think

01:39:07.220 we

01:39:07.360 all

01:39:07.520 know

01:39:07.680 this

01:39:07.880 perfectly

01:39:08.300 well

01:39:08.660 although

01:39:09.760 the

01:39:09.980 stories

01:39:10.400 remind

01:39:11.380 us

01:39:11.720 you

01:39:11.880 know

01:39:12.120 Plato

01:39:13.320 Socrates

01:39:14.020 believed

01:39:14.560 that

01:39:14.840 all

01:39:16.280 knowledge

01:39:17.420 was

01:39:17.660 remembering

01:39:18.220 you

01:39:20.240 know

01:39:20.360 he

01:39:20.520 believed

01:39:20.820 that

01:39:21.120 the

01:39:22.540 soul

01:39:22.800 before

01:39:23.160 birth

01:39:23.460 had

01:39:23.660 all

01:39:23.900 knowledge

01:39:24.240 and

01:39:24.500 lost

01:39:25.020 it

01:39:25.200 at

01:39:25.400 birth

01:39:25.780 and

01:39:26.540 then

01:39:26.800 experience

01:39:27.740 reminded

01:39:28.480 the

01:39:28.820 soul

01:39:29.160 of

01:39:29.340 what

01:39:29.500 it

01:39:29.600 already

01:39:29.940 knew

01:39:30.300 and

01:39:31.160 there's

01:39:31.340 something

01:39:31.540 about

01:39:31.820 that

01:39:32.020 that's

01:39:32.260 really

01:39:32.720 true

01:39:33.700 because

01:39:34.540 you're

01:39:35.120 not

01:39:35.380 just

01:39:35.680 a

01:39:37.020 creature

01:39:37.340 that

01:39:37.600 emerged

01:39:38.140 30

01:39:39.760 years

01:39:40.100 ago

01:39:40.300 or 40

01:39:40.680 years

01:39:40.960 ago

01:39:41.160 you're

01:39:41.460 you're

01:39:42.380 the

01:39:42.520 inheritor

01:39:43.060 of

01:39:43.300 three and

01:39:43.760 a half

01:39:44.060 billion

01:39:44.520 years

01:39:45.440 worth

01:39:45.820 of

01:39:46.040 biological

01:39:46.600 engineering

01:39:47.220 right

01:39:47.540 you have

01:39:48.360 your

01:39:48.560 nature

01:39:49.100 stamped

01:39:49.660 deeply

01:39:50.280 inside

01:39:50.840 of you

01:39:51.200 far

01:39:51.760 more

01:39:52.000 deeply

01:39:52.280 than

01:39:52.500 any

01:39:53.040 of us

01:39:53.420 realize

01:39:53.860 and

01:39:54.560 when

01:39:54.700 you

01:39:54.820 come

01:39:54.980 across

01:39:55.320 these

01:39:55.560 great

01:39:55.880 stories

01:39:56.340 these

01:39:56.560 reminders

01:39:57.060 they're

01:39:57.400 a reminder

01:39:58.020 of

01:39:58.600 how

01:39:58.800 to

01:39:58.980 be

01:39:59.240 properly

01:39:59.880 and

01:40:00.400 they

01:40:00.540 echo

01:40:00.840 in

01:40:01.020 your

01:40:01.200 soul

01:40:01.480 because

01:40:01.760 the

01:40:02.000 structure

01:40:02.400 is

01:40:02.560 already

01:40:02.880 there

01:40:03.320 the

01:40:07.060 external

01:40:07.500 stories

01:40:07.980 are

01:40:08.160 manifestations

01:40:08.780 of the

01:40:09.480 internal

01:40:09.840 reality

01:40:10.360 and

01:40:10.620 then

01:40:10.780 they're

01:40:10.980 called

01:40:11.440 to

01:40:11.620 that

01:40:11.800 internal

01:40:12.480 reality

01:40:12.980 to

01:40:13.240 reveal

01:40:13.640 itself

01:40:14.200 well

01:40:20.400 and then

01:40:20.580 we come

01:40:20.920 to the

01:40:21.180 end

01:40:21.360 of the

01:40:21.600 Abrahamic

01:40:22.180 stories

01:40:22.500 at least

01:40:22.760 this

01:40:23.040 section

01:40:23.360 of them

01:40:23.720 with

01:40:24.360 Sarah's

01:40:24.780 death

01:40:25.160 and

01:40:26.020 Abraham

01:40:26.300 is

01:40:26.520 called

01:40:26.780 upon

01:40:27.040 to make

01:40:27.360 the

01:40:27.540 supreme

01:40:27.840 sacrifice

01:40:28.440 and

01:40:29.660 interestingly

01:40:30.120 enough

01:40:30.440 because

01:40:30.740 he's

01:40:31.000 willing

01:40:31.220 to make

01:40:31.580 the

01:40:31.760 supreme

01:40:32.040 sacrifice

01:40:32.540 he

01:40:33.260 actually

01:40:33.540 doesn't

01:40:33.860 have

01:40:34.120 to

01:40:34.300 and

01:40:35.080 that's

01:40:35.320 an

01:40:35.440 interesting

01:40:35.840 thing

01:40:36.220 as

01:40:37.220 well

01:40:37.500 because

01:40:37.940 I

01:40:38.240 believe

01:40:38.720 that

01:40:39.520 it's

01:40:39.720 reasonable

01:40:40.160 from a

01:40:40.660 psychological

01:40:41.140 perspective

01:40:41.800 to point

01:40:42.300 out

01:40:42.500 that

01:40:42.760 the

01:40:44.280 more

01:40:44.480 willing

01:40:44.780 you

01:40:45.000 are

01:40:45.260 for

01:40:45.500 example

01:40:45.980 to

01:40:48.180 face

01:40:48.640 death

01:40:49.400 perhaps

01:40:50.340 the

01:40:51.340 less

01:40:51.560 likely

01:40:51.920 it

01:40:52.660 is

01:40:52.960 that

01:40:53.380 you're

01:40:53.620 going

01:40:53.860 to

01:40:54.040 have

01:40:54.260 to

01:40:54.420 face

01:40:54.720 it

01:40:54.920 at

01:40:55.400 least

01:40:55.620 in

01:40:55.820 an

01:40:56.040 ignoble

01:40:56.560 manner

01:40:57.080 and

01:41:00.540 so

01:41:00.720 with

01:41:00.920 that

01:41:01.180 then

01:41:01.420 we'll

01:41:01.620 bring

01:41:01.900 this

01:41:02.480 12

01:41:02.880 part

01:41:03.140 series

01:41:03.560 to

01:41:04.000 a

01:41:04.120 close

01:41:04.500 you

01:41:12.740 know

01:41:12.860 I

01:41:13.040 think

01:41:13.260 that

01:41:13.460 applause

01:41:13.860 is

01:41:14.080 for

01:41:14.300 everyone

01:41:14.700 and

01:41:15.140 I

01:41:15.600 hate

01:41:15.780 to

01:41:15.940 say

01:41:16.120 that

01:41:16.340 because

01:41:16.580 it

01:41:16.740 sounds

01:41:16.980 so

01:41:17.200 new

01:41:17.440 agey

01:41:17.920 but

01:41:20.900 you

01:41:21.040 know

01:41:21.200 it

01:41:21.540 really

01:41:22.240 does

01:41:22.620 it

01:41:23.520 really

01:41:23.720 does

01:41:23.960 seem

01:41:24.180 to

01:41:24.340 me

01:41:24.480 that

01:41:24.680 this

01:41:25.160 is

01:41:25.280 a

01:41:25.440 participatory

01:41:26.140 exercise

01:41:26.600 you

01:41:26.960 know

01:41:27.140 and

01:41:27.280 that

01:41:27.460 it

01:41:28.980 would

01:41:29.140 not

01:41:29.340 be

01:41:29.500 possible

01:41:29.920 for

01:41:30.160 me

01:41:30.280 to

01:41:30.400 go

01:41:30.520 through

01:41:30.680 these

01:41:30.900 stories

01:41:31.180 without

01:41:31.440 having

01:41:31.860 you

01:41:32.040 here

01:41:32.220 to

01:41:32.360 listen

01:41:32.700 and

01:41:33.060 so

01:41:33.340 and

01:41:33.860 I

01:41:33.960 always

01:41:34.160 think

01:41:34.480 when

01:41:34.740 talking

01:41:35.100 to

01:41:35.280 a

01:41:35.400 crowd

01:41:35.600 that

01:41:35.780 it's

01:41:35.920 a

01:41:36.040 dialogue

01:41:36.400 you know

01:41:36.800 it's

01:41:37.040 a

01:41:37.180 dialogue

01:41:37.620 you

01:41:38.780 sit

01:41:39.080 and

01:41:39.200 you

01:41:39.320 listen

01:41:39.620 and

01:41:39.800 you've

01:41:40.000 all

01:41:40.180 listened

01:41:40.560 and

01:41:40.920 thank

01:41:42.380 God

01:41:42.660 for

01:41:42.820 that

01:41:43.140 you

01:41:43.300 know

01:41:43.480 and

01:41:43.920 that

01:41:44.040 gives

01:41:44.240 me

01:41:44.360 a

01:41:44.500 chance

01:41:44.740 to

01:41:44.920 think

01:41:45.260 and

01:41:45.420 it

01:41:45.520 gives

01:41:45.680 me

01:41:45.800 a

01:41:45.920 chance

01:41:46.120 to

01:41:46.300 watch

01:41:46.760 and

01:41:46.940 it

01:41:47.060 gives

01:41:47.220 me

01:41:47.340 a

01:41:47.460 chance

01:41:47.660 to

01:41:47.840 interact

01:41:48.300 because

01:41:48.520 you're

01:41:49.220 emblematic

01:41:49.900 of

01:41:50.180 humanity

01:41:51.220 at

01:41:51.520 large

01:41:51.920 I

01:41:52.100 suppose

01:41:52.440 that's

01:41:52.780 one

01:41:52.940 way

01:41:53.120 of

01:41:53.240 thinking

01:41:53.480 about

01:41:53.800 it

01:41:53.940 and

01:41:54.100 for

01:41:54.580 me

01:41:54.760 to

01:41:54.920 be

01:41:55.080 able

01:41:55.220 to

01:41:55.400 craft

01:41:55.800 what

01:41:56.020 I'm

01:41:56.200 saying

01:41:56.540 so

01:41:56.760 that

01:41:56.920 it

01:41:57.040 has

01:41:57.240 an

01:41:57.360 impact

01:41:57.780 on

01:41:57.980 all

01:41:58.180 of

01:41:58.300 you

01:41:58.440 here

01:41:58.800 also

01:41:59.520 means

01:41:59.840 that

01:42:00.020 I

01:42:00.120 can

01:42:00.260 simultaneously

01:42:00.780 craft

01:42:01.320 it

01:42:01.480 so

01:42:01.600 that

01:42:01.740 it

01:42:01.860 has

01:42:02.020 an

01:42:02.160 impact

01:42:02.520 that

01:42:02.720 in

01:42:03.120 principle

01:42:03.560 can

01:42:03.820 reach

01:42:04.040 far

01:42:04.260 beyond

01:42:04.600 this

01:42:04.840 place

01:42:05.160 and

01:42:05.360 so

01:42:05.600 you

01:42:06.340 know

01:42:06.500 I'm

01:42:06.900 hoping

01:42:07.220 that

01:42:07.480 I'm

01:42:08.180 really

01:42:08.420 hoping

01:42:08.800 that

01:42:09.080 one

01:42:09.620 of

01:42:09.720 the

01:42:09.840 things

01:42:10.120 that

01:42:10.320 can

01:42:10.520 start

01:42:10.840 to

01:42:11.020 happen

01:42:11.280 with

01:42:11.500 this

01:42:11.680 at

01:42:11.840 least

01:42:12.020 is

01:42:12.220 that

01:42:12.400 we

01:42:12.600 can

01:42:12.760 put

01:42:13.100 our

01:42:13.240 culture

01:42:13.580 back

01:42:13.920 on

01:42:14.120 its

01:42:14.300 firm

01:42:14.580 foundation

01:42:15.140 because

01:42:15.480 it's

01:42:15.740 something

01:42:16.020 that's

01:42:16.320 desperately

01:42:16.680 needed

01:42:17.080 and

01:42:17.360 in

01:42:18.000 order

01:42:18.180 to

01:42:18.360 do

01:42:18.500 that

01:42:18.700 we

01:42:18.860 have

01:42:19.060 to

01:42:19.240 understand

01:42:19.840 both

01:42:20.240 the

01:42:20.420 evil

01:42:20.760 and

01:42:21.060 the

01:42:21.220 nobility

01:42:21.740 of

01:42:21.960 the

01:42:22.100 human

01:42:22.360 soul

01:42:22.840 and

01:42:23.760 that's

01:42:24.100 a

01:42:24.960 fundamental

01:42:25.560 truth

01:42:26.240 you

01:42:26.420 know

01:42:26.580 and

01:42:26.960 I

01:42:27.080 don't

01:42:27.480 think

01:42:27.760 you

01:42:27.920 can

01:42:28.080 get

01:42:28.260 to

01:42:28.380 the

01:42:28.520 nobility

01:42:28.960 without

01:42:29.300 a

01:42:29.540 sojourn

01:42:29.960 through

01:42:30.140 the

01:42:30.300 evil

01:42:30.580 I

01:42:30.780 really

01:42:31.040 don't

01:42:31.300 believe

01:42:31.580 that

01:42:31.780 at

01:42:31.900 all

01:42:32.120 it's

01:42:32.380 no

01:42:32.580 place

01:42:32.940 for

01:42:33.100 the

01:42:33.240 naive

01:42:33.600 to

01:42:33.820 go

01:42:34.060 that's

01:42:34.440 for

01:42:34.620 sure

01:42:34.880 but

01:42:35.940 anyways

01:42:36.820 I

01:42:57.760 going

01:43:09.220 online

01:43:09.640 without

01:43:09.940 express

01:43:10.360 VPN

01:43:10.700 is

01:43:11.020 like

01:43:11.200 not

01:43:11.480 paying

01:43:11.720 attention

01:43:12.040 to

01:43:12.220 the

01:43:12.360 safety

01:43:12.580 demonstration

01:43:13.120 on

01:43:13.380 a

01:43:13.480 flight

01:43:13.760 most

01:43:14.500 of

01:43:14.620 the

01:43:14.680 time

01:43:14.900 you'll

01:43:15.120 probably

01:43:15.500 be

01:43:15.760 fine

01:43:16.120 but

01:43:16.500 what

01:43:16.880 if

01:43:17.040 one

01:43:17.260 day

01:43:17.440 that

01:43:17.700 weird

01:43:18.060 yellow

01:43:18.340 mask

01:43:18.660 drops

01:43:18.980 down

01:43:19.220 from

01:43:19.400 overhead

01:43:19.680 and

01:43:20.120 you

01:43:20.380 have

01:43:20.600 no

01:43:20.860 idea

01:43:21.180 what

01:43:21.380 to

01:43:21.520 do

01:43:21.700 in

01:43:22.140 our

01:43:23.300 your

01:43:23.600 digital

01:43:23.980 privacy

01:43:24.420 isn't

01:43:24.780 just

01:43:24.960 a

01:43:25.100 luxury

01:43:25.380 it's

01:43:26.020 a

01:43:26.160 fundamental

01:43:26.600 right

01:43:26.960 every

01:43:27.280 time

01:43:27.500 you

01:43:27.640 connect

01:43:27.880 to

01:43:28.020 an

01:43:28.160 unsecured

01:43:28.660 network

01:43:29.060 in

01:43:29.260 a

01:43:29.740 hotel

01:43:30.420 or

01:43:30.680 airport

01:43:31.040 you're

01:43:31.580 essentially

01:43:31.920 broadcasting

01:43:32.540 your

01:43:32.820 personal

01:43:33.120 information

01:43:33.620 to

01:43:34.360 with

01:43:34.600 a

01:43:34.740 technical

01:43:35.080 know-how

01:43:35.520 to

01:43:35.680 intercept

01:43:36.100 it

01:43:36.320 and

01:43:36.520 let's

01:43:36.740 be

01:43:36.880 clear

01:43:37.160 it

01:43:37.440 doesn't

01:43:37.840 take

01:43:38.040 a

01:43:38.160 genius

01:43:38.380 hacker

01:43:38.680 to

01:43:38.860 do

01:43:39.000 this

01:43:39.300 with

01:43:39.760 some

01:43:40.000 off-the-shelf

01:43:40.600 hardware

01:43:41.000 even a

01:43:41.580 tech-savvy

01:43:42.120 teenager

01:43:42.600 could

01:43:42.900 potentially

01:43:43.340 access

01:43:43.720 your

01:43:43.980 passwords

01:43:44.540 bank

01:43:46.040 card

01:43:46.260 details

01:43:46.720 now

01:43:47.300 you might

01:43:47.800 think

01:43:48.100 what's

01:43:48.520 the

01:43:48.640 big

01:43:48.780 deal

01:43:49.040 who'd

01:43:49.380 want

01:43:49.520 my

01:43:49.760 data

01:43:50.040 anyway

01:43:50.420 well

01:43:50.980 on

01:43:51.180 the

01:43:51.280 dark

01:43:51.500 web

01:43:51.700 your

01:43:52.020 personal

01:43:52.440 information

01:43:52.960 could

01:43:53.220 fetch

01:43:53.440 up

01:43:53.620 to

01:43:53.760 $1,000

01:43:54.540 that's

01:43:55.600 right

01:43:55.780 there's

01:43:56.020 a

01:43:56.160 whole

01:43:56.440 underground

01:43:56.900 economy

01:43:57.360 built

01:43:57.720 on

01:43:57.980 stolen

01:43:58.360 identities

01:43:58.980 enter

01:43:59.640 expressvpn

01:44:00.760 it's

01:44:01.320 like a

01:44:01.560 digital

01:44:01.840 fortress

01:44:02.260 creating

01:44:02.860 an

01:44:03.760 between

01:44:05.380 their

01:44:05.940 encryption

01:44:06.260 is

01:44:06.620 so

01:44:06.940 robust

01:44:07.380 that

01:44:07.620 it

01:44:07.760 would

01:44:07.860 take

01:44:08.000 a

01:44:08.140 hacker

01:44:08.400 with

01:44:08.600 a

01:44:08.760 supercomputer

01:44:09.240 over

01:44:10.660 to

01:44:10.820 crack

01:44:11.100 it

01:44:11.860 let

01:45:57.020 hi

01:45:58.240 dr.

01:45:58.520 peterson

01:45:58.780 it appears

01:46:00.400 to me

01:46:00.660 from this

01:46:01.020 series

01:46:01.360 and from

01:46:02.240 the biblical

01:46:02.580 stories

01:46:02.980 themselves

01:46:03.380 that the

01:46:03.800 emphasis

01:46:04.140 of the

01:46:04.680 stories

01:46:05.040 is the

01:46:05.400 utmost

01:46:05.640 importance

01:46:06.160 of the

01:46:06.420 fool

01:46:06.680 for the

01:46:07.260 maintenance

01:46:07.640 and adaptation

01:46:08.760 of being

01:46:09.280 or society

01:46:09.940 the figure

01:46:10.700 who will

01:46:10.980 lunge

01:46:11.240 headfirst

01:46:11.760 into uncharted

01:46:12.340 territory

01:46:12.860 explicitly

01:46:13.600 aware of

01:46:14.280 the danger

01:46:14.720 and risk

01:46:15.200 of loss

01:46:15.640 in confronting

01:46:16.200 what cannot

01:46:16.560 be understood

01:46:17.120 but unafraid

01:46:18.080 and with zeal

01:46:18.740 and that the

01:46:19.540 dangers of

01:46:20.000 ideological

01:46:20.480 possession

01:46:21.020 are just as

01:46:23.160 much of a

01:46:23.500 concern

01:46:23.880 as that

01:46:25.400 individuals are

01:46:26.200 unwilling

01:46:26.620 and perhaps

01:46:27.320 unable to

01:46:27.940 form an

01:46:28.280 opinion

01:46:28.580 and take

01:46:29.020 a stance

01:46:29.380 one way

01:46:29.800 or another

01:46:30.200 when confronted

01:46:31.040 with a fork

01:46:31.540 in the road

01:46:32.000 or a decision

01:46:32.980 that must be

01:46:33.440 made

01:46:33.680 you've seen

01:46:34.840 this apathy

01:46:35.420 throughout the

01:46:36.400 universities

01:46:36.880 as I have

01:46:38.000 too in the

01:46:38.560 public schooling

01:46:38.980 system

01:46:39.380 my question

01:46:40.320 is how can

01:46:41.400 one model

01:46:41.860 being the

01:46:42.940 fool to

01:46:43.660 plunge into

01:46:44.120 the unknown

01:46:44.640 and publicly

01:46:45.160 fall on your

01:46:45.800 face in pursuit

01:46:46.620 of learning

01:46:47.000 in a way that

01:46:47.800 clearly demonstrates

01:46:48.520 the urgency

01:46:49.080 and utility

01:46:49.940 of the fool

01:46:50.420 well there

01:46:51.860 there isn't

01:46:52.080 well there isn't

01:46:52.100 any difference

01:46:52.660 between the fool

01:46:53.440 and someone

01:46:53.940 who's courageous

01:46:54.640 right from an

01:46:55.320 archetypal

01:46:55.820 perspective

01:46:56.360 and I mean

01:46:56.920 Abraham is a

01:46:57.660 fool obviously

01:46:58.480 when he starts

01:46:59.160 his adventures

01:47:00.740 I mean the

01:47:01.920 story lays it

01:47:02.580 out in that

01:47:02.980 manner

01:47:03.220 he's far too

01:47:04.360 old to be

01:47:05.000 leaving home

01:47:05.660 for example

01:47:06.360 he's a late

01:47:07.320 bloomer

01:47:07.800 you know

01:47:08.680 and then he

01:47:09.720 has a lot of

01:47:10.920 catastrophic adventures

01:47:12.060 along the way

01:47:12.820 and certainly

01:47:13.440 you could imagine

01:47:14.180 that had you

01:47:14.840 encountered him

01:47:15.880 when he first

01:47:16.420 encountered the

01:47:17.120 famine in the

01:47:17.880 land of strangers

01:47:18.680 when he first

01:47:19.280 went out

01:47:19.720 that the idea

01:47:20.780 that he had

01:47:21.320 he had followed

01:47:23.140 his misguided

01:47:24.220 intuitions

01:47:24.940 would have been

01:47:25.580 self-evident

01:47:26.560 but in the

01:47:28.880 Abrahamic stories

01:47:29.680 there is this

01:47:30.300 call to get

01:47:31.340 out and do

01:47:32.640 and that's it

01:47:34.680 and the thing

01:47:35.120 is that

01:47:35.600 you know

01:47:36.000 one of the

01:47:36.380 things I've

01:47:36.820 learned

01:47:37.120 to make it

01:47:38.160 concretely

01:47:38.680 is that

01:47:39.040 I've done a lot

01:47:39.980 of different

01:47:40.340 things in my

01:47:40.900 life

01:47:41.160 and every time

01:47:41.760 I did a new

01:47:42.340 thing I was

01:47:42.840 a fool

01:47:43.240 I did it

01:47:43.800 badly

01:47:44.100 I was an

01:47:44.780 imposter

01:47:45.340 right

01:47:45.640 and

01:47:46.180 because

01:47:48.340 when you

01:47:48.900 first start

01:47:49.420 to do

01:47:49.640 something

01:47:49.900 you don't

01:47:50.200 know what

01:47:50.460 you're doing

01:47:50.960 but that

01:47:52.280 that's okay

01:47:52.960 that's an

01:47:53.400 acceptance of

01:47:54.160 your vulnerability

01:47:54.780 right

01:47:55.560 and your

01:47:55.860 ignorance

01:47:56.200 that's humility

01:47:57.080 in some sense

01:47:57.800 the willingness

01:47:58.320 to be a fool

01:47:59.080 in the land

01:48:00.080 of strangers

01:48:00.660 that's it

01:48:01.500 the willingness

01:48:02.280 to be a fool

01:48:03.000 in the land

01:48:03.520 of strangers

01:48:04.040 and that's

01:48:05.240 an act of

01:48:05.700 courage

01:48:06.100 because you

01:48:06.860 also reveal

01:48:07.600 your vulnerability

01:48:08.240 to the world

01:48:09.000 by stumbling

01:48:09.640 around

01:48:10.060 but as long

01:48:10.960 as you're

01:48:11.240 stumbling forward

01:48:11.940 then you're

01:48:12.320 going to move

01:48:12.820 forward

01:48:13.280 now how do

01:48:14.720 you do that

01:48:15.120 more concretely

01:48:15.980 you aim at

01:48:16.740 an ideal

01:48:17.220 right

01:48:17.900 and you aim

01:48:18.680 at an ideal

01:48:19.120 that's beyond

01:48:19.860 you

01:48:20.220 now maybe

01:48:21.380 you don't aim

01:48:21.840 to begin

01:48:22.240 with at an

01:48:22.680 ideal

01:48:23.020 that's so

01:48:24.280 beyond you

01:48:25.000 that you're

01:48:25.580 crushed

01:48:26.240 by its

01:48:26.940 magnificence

01:48:28.300 you know

01:48:28.640 maybe that's

01:48:29.840 too demotivating

01:48:32.220 to move you

01:48:33.340 but you could

01:48:34.140 at least

01:48:34.560 conceptualize

01:48:35.480 yourself

01:48:35.920 as the you

01:48:37.100 that you are

01:48:37.900 with fewer

01:48:38.740 of the faults

01:48:39.620 that you know

01:48:40.360 of

01:48:40.640 and that's

01:48:41.900 a good start

01:48:42.460 and I also think

01:48:43.200 that's associated

01:48:43.960 with the idea

01:48:44.640 of humility

01:48:45.220 take stock

01:48:46.840 figure out

01:48:48.160 how it is

01:48:48.940 that you're

01:48:49.380 not who

01:48:49.980 you could

01:48:50.500 be

01:48:50.920 and then

01:48:52.300 move in

01:48:52.940 that direction

01:48:53.600 and accept

01:48:55.340 the consequences

01:48:56.160 you know

01:48:57.100 you're going to

01:48:58.220 get slapped

01:48:58.900 a lot

01:48:59.800 but maybe

01:49:00.760 with each

01:49:01.180 slap

01:49:01.500 you'll

01:49:01.780 straighten up

01:49:02.460 a little bit

01:49:03.000 especially

01:49:03.820 if you

01:49:04.140 listen

01:49:04.540 even to

01:49:05.040 the people

01:49:05.420 who are

01:49:05.700 slapping

01:49:06.140 you

01:49:06.420 because

01:49:07.120 sometimes

01:49:07.580 they're

01:49:07.840 the ones

01:49:08.220 who can

01:49:08.560 reveal

01:49:09.040 for you

01:49:10.180 very quickly

01:49:11.160 where it is

01:49:12.000 that you're

01:49:12.380 weak and

01:49:12.720 insufficient

01:49:13.160 so that you

01:49:14.220 won't have

01:49:14.600 to be that

01:49:15.020 way in the

01:49:15.400 future

01:49:15.740 so

01:49:16.840 yeah

01:49:18.600 hello

01:49:26.100 hello

01:49:38.640 for me

01:49:39.080 my pleasure

01:49:41.640 uh-oh

01:49:52.160 good morning

01:49:54.420 citizen peterson

01:49:55.460 you got a

01:49:57.360 short one

01:49:57.920 yeah i do

01:49:58.820 i mean a

01:49:59.380 question

01:49:59.680 saved the

01:50:00.300 best question

01:50:01.200 for last

01:50:01.960 trust me

01:50:02.760 this one's

01:50:03.160 good

01:50:03.400 but first

01:50:04.600 i'll break

01:50:05.300 the ice

01:50:05.780 many people

01:50:07.100 have said

01:50:07.780 no ice

01:50:09.160 breaker

01:50:09.500 you want me

01:50:10.180 to get right

01:50:10.580 into the

01:50:10.920 real question

01:50:11.440 i want you

01:50:11.880 to get right

01:50:12.280 into the

01:50:12.620 question

01:50:13.060 all right

01:50:13.900 so this

01:50:14.880 question is

01:50:15.480 about

01:50:15.740 hyper

01:50:17.020 critical

01:50:17.520 thinking

01:50:18.020 yep

01:50:18.380 now everyone

01:50:19.200 knows that

01:50:19.700 critical thinking

01:50:20.380 is a great

01:50:20.920 thing to develop

01:50:21.660 you have to

01:50:22.360 be able to

01:50:23.600 i guess

01:50:24.760 think about

01:50:25.520 your ideas

01:50:26.300 if information

01:50:27.560 is presented

01:50:28.140 to you

01:50:28.540 you have to

01:50:28.960 decide if

01:50:29.480 it's legitimate

01:50:30.080 or if there's

01:50:30.840 some sort

01:50:31.160 of deceit

01:50:31.620 behind it

01:50:32.220 but when

01:50:34.580 it's taken

01:50:35.040 to its

01:50:35.460 extreme

01:50:35.940 no matter

01:50:36.800 how great

01:50:37.580 or noble

01:50:38.180 somebody is

01:50:38.940 you can

01:50:39.240 always find

01:50:39.780 a crack

01:50:40.260 in the

01:50:40.540 armor

01:50:40.800 and try

01:50:41.360 to figure

01:50:41.760 out how

01:50:42.100 they're

01:50:42.640 covering up

01:50:44.100 something

01:50:44.480 that's not

01:50:45.040 great about

01:50:45.740 them

01:50:45.960 you know

01:50:46.280 and you

01:50:46.780 might then

01:50:47.160 discredit

01:50:47.640 everything

01:50:48.000 they do

01:50:48.460 as just

01:50:49.020 a facade

01:50:49.940 okay so

01:50:51.260 let me stop

01:50:52.020 you there

01:50:52.280 for a sec

01:50:52.640 because i want

01:50:53.120 to address

01:50:53.560 two of the

01:50:54.000 issues that

01:50:54.460 you already

01:50:54.840 brought up

01:50:55.400 so there's

01:50:57.120 the issue

01:50:58.160 of hyper

01:50:58.560 critical thinking

01:50:59.720 partly in

01:51:00.740 relationship to

01:51:01.460 yourself and

01:51:02.020 partly in

01:51:02.460 relationship to

01:51:03.120 others

01:51:03.400 so i'd like

01:51:04.800 to address

01:51:05.240 the issue

01:51:05.940 with regards

01:51:06.500 to yourself

01:51:07.060 to begin

01:51:07.520 with

01:51:07.800 so there's

01:51:08.940 this idea

01:51:09.440 that carl

01:51:09.960 jung

01:51:10.140 developed

01:51:10.640 he extracted

01:51:12.140 it i don't

01:51:13.020 know from

01:51:13.860 where

01:51:14.120 from some

01:51:14.800 ancient

01:51:15.160 writings that

01:51:15.700 he was

01:51:15.940 familiar

01:51:16.240 with

01:51:16.440 i believe

01:51:16.760 they were

01:51:17.060 jewish

01:51:17.400 writings

01:51:17.800 he said

01:51:18.820 that

01:51:19.140 classically

01:51:20.280 speaking

01:51:20.700 traditionally

01:51:21.160 speaking

01:51:21.660 god was

01:51:22.580 viewed

01:51:22.860 to

01:51:23.140 rule

01:51:23.880 being

01:51:24.740 with

01:51:24.980 two

01:51:25.260 hands

01:51:25.680 the

01:51:25.900 right

01:51:26.100 hand

01:51:26.340 and

01:51:26.460 left

01:51:26.760 hand

01:51:27.060 and

01:51:27.240 the

01:51:27.860 right

01:51:28.060 hand

01:51:28.260 was

01:51:28.420 justice

01:51:29.020 and that

01:51:30.260 was

01:51:30.420 you're

01:51:30.700 going to

01:51:30.920 get

01:51:31.140 what's

01:51:31.420 coming

01:51:31.680 to

01:51:31.880 you

01:51:32.080 but

01:51:32.880 the

01:51:33.020 left

01:51:33.240 hand

01:51:33.440 was

01:51:33.620 mercy

01:51:34.040 and

01:51:35.460 the

01:51:35.580 idea

01:51:35.840 essentially

01:51:36.300 was

01:51:36.620 that

01:51:36.840 the

01:51:37.120 cosmos

01:51:37.440 could

01:51:37.700 not

01:51:37.860 exist

01:51:38.200 without

01:51:38.440 the

01:51:38.680 proper

01:51:38.940 combination

01:51:39.460 of

01:51:39.660 justice

01:51:39.960 and

01:51:40.160 mercy

01:51:40.420 you

01:51:41.060 should

01:51:41.280 get

01:51:41.460 what's

01:51:41.700 coming

01:51:41.920 to

01:51:42.100 you

01:51:42.280 but

01:51:42.920 people

01:51:43.500 are

01:51:43.680 fallible

01:51:44.020 and

01:51:44.200 they

01:51:44.320 make

01:51:44.480 mistakes

01:51:44.980 and

01:51:46.000 so

01:51:46.180 it's

01:51:46.440 reasonable

01:51:46.800 to

01:51:47.100 apply

01:51:47.420 that

01:51:47.760 to

01:51:47.940 yourself

01:51:48.420 you

01:51:49.020 know

01:51:49.160 there's

01:51:50.040 an

01:51:50.160 idea

01:51:50.420 that's

01:51:50.700 been

01:51:50.860 developed

01:51:51.180 by

01:51:51.380 psychologists

01:51:51.880 over

01:51:52.180 the

01:51:52.340 last

01:51:52.680 few

01:51:53.460 decades

01:51:53.880 that

01:51:54.100 people

01:51:54.340 are

01:51:54.560 basically

01:51:55.340 narcissistic

01:51:56.120 and

01:51:56.300 that

01:51:56.460 they

01:51:57.500 generally

01:51:57.840 feel

01:51:58.140 that

01:51:58.300 they're

01:51:58.460 better

01:51:58.660 at

01:51:58.840 most

01:51:59.060 things

01:51:59.300 than

01:51:59.440 other

01:51:59.620 people

01:51:59.960 I

01:52:01.000 don't

01:52:01.180 buy

01:52:01.460 that

01:52:01.800 I

01:52:02.120 don't

01:52:02.260 think

01:52:02.440 the

01:52:02.580 experimental

01:52:03.040 evidence

01:52:03.640 for

01:52:03.820 that

01:52:03.980 is

01:52:04.080 very

01:52:04.260 strong

01:52:04.620 and

01:52:04.740 I

01:52:04.840 certainly

01:52:05.100 haven't

01:52:05.400 seen

01:52:05.600 that

01:52:05.860 for

01:52:06.320 example

01:52:06.620 in

01:52:06.800 my

01:52:06.940 clinical

01:52:07.240 practice

01:52:07.740 where

01:52:08.420 I've

01:52:08.580 seen

01:52:08.760 that

01:52:08.920 people

01:52:09.140 are

01:52:09.340 generally

01:52:09.680 far

01:52:09.980 harder

01:52:10.260 on

01:52:10.460 themselves

01:52:10.820 than

01:52:11.040 they

01:52:11.180 are

01:52:11.340 on

01:52:11.460 other

01:52:11.640 people

01:52:12.000 one

01:52:14.120 example

01:52:14.520 of

01:52:14.700 that

01:52:14.880 I've

01:52:15.100 written

01:52:15.280 about

01:52:15.520 this

01:52:15.760 in

01:52:15.880 my

01:52:16.040 new

01:52:16.180 book

01:52:16.400 too

01:52:16.620 is

01:52:16.780 that

01:52:16.940 you

01:52:17.060 know

01:52:17.160 if

01:52:17.300 you

01:52:17.420 have

01:52:17.660 a

01:52:17.820 pet

01:52:18.040 that's

01:52:18.320 sick

01:52:18.500 and

01:52:18.640 you

01:52:18.720 take

01:52:18.920 it

01:52:19.000 to

01:52:19.120 the

01:52:19.420 vet

01:52:19.780 and

01:52:20.200 you

01:52:20.280 get

01:52:20.440 medication

01:52:20.960 you're

01:52:21.660 very

01:52:21.860 likely

01:52:22.160 to

01:52:22.320 give

01:52:22.480 the

01:52:22.640 entire

01:52:23.300 course

01:52:23.580 of

01:52:23.700 medication

01:52:24.140 to

01:52:24.380 go

01:52:24.480 to

01:52:24.600 the

01:52:24.700 pharmacy

01:52:25.060 to

01:52:25.700 get

01:52:25.900 the

01:52:26.140 prescription

01:52:26.560 filled

01:52:26.960 to

01:52:27.580 give

01:52:27.840 the

01:52:28.000 pet

01:52:28.180 the

01:52:28.320 medication

01:52:28.780 to

01:52:29.240 follow

01:52:29.520 it

01:52:29.700 through

01:52:30.040 but

01:52:30.540 if

01:52:30.680 you

01:52:30.980 are

01:52:31.320 the

01:52:31.500 person

01:52:31.860 who

01:52:32.340 has

01:52:32.540 the

01:52:32.680 problem

01:52:33.020 yeah

01:52:33.480 you

01:52:33.680 all

01:52:33.860 laugh

01:52:34.120 because

01:52:34.320 you

01:52:34.420 know

01:52:34.580 the

01:52:34.760 story

01:52:35.120 it's

01:52:35.620 like

01:52:35.880 a

01:52:36.560 30

01:52:36.800 you

01:52:37.000 won't

01:52:37.180 even

01:52:37.340 go

01:52:37.540 fill

01:52:37.780 the

01:52:37.980 prescription

01:52:38.440 and

01:52:38.840 of

01:52:39.120 the

01:52:39.260 remaining

01:52:39.560 two

01:52:39.840 thirds

01:52:40.100 of

01:52:40.300 you

01:52:40.460 half

01:52:40.820 won't

01:52:41.200 take

01:52:41.700 it

01:52:41.840 to

01:52:42.060 completion

01:52:42.880 and

01:52:43.180 you

01:52:43.300 think

01:52:43.520 well

01:52:43.720 why

01:52:44.180 are

01:52:44.320 people

01:52:44.580 like

01:52:44.840 that

01:52:45.080 and

01:52:45.200 I

01:52:45.320 think

01:52:45.500 it's

01:52:45.680 because

01:52:45.960 they

01:52:46.740 know

01:52:47.360 themselves

01:52:47.960 they

01:52:48.540 have

01:52:48.720 contempt

01:52:49.240 for

01:52:49.480 themselves

01:52:49.900 because

01:52:50.260 of

01:52:50.440 their

01:52:50.600 flaws

01:52:50.960 and

01:52:51.580 then

01:52:51.800 they

01:52:52.080 come

01:52:52.540 to

01:52:52.760 despise

01:52:53.320 themselves

01:52:53.860 and

01:52:54.360 I

01:52:54.460 think

01:52:54.640 that's

01:52:54.860 a

01:52:54.960 big

01:52:55.100 mistake

01:52:55.480 that's

01:52:55.880 lack

01:52:56.200 that's

01:52:56.560 too

01:52:56.740 much

01:52:56.960 justice

01:52:57.440 and

01:52:57.680 not

01:52:57.860 enough

01:52:58.100 mercy

01:52:58.500 and

01:52:58.740 you

01:52:59.360 know

01:52:59.480 Jung

01:52:59.820 wrote

01:53:00.080 about

01:53:00.380 the

01:53:01.100 biblical

01:53:01.400 injunction

01:53:01.940 that

01:53:02.200 you

01:53:02.360 should

01:53:02.580 treat

01:53:03.060 your

01:53:03.660 neighbor

01:53:04.040 as

01:53:04.500 if

01:53:04.740 he

01:53:04.940 were

01:53:05.140 yourself

01:53:05.680 essentially

01:53:06.520 but

01:53:07.680 he

01:53:07.800 talked

01:53:08.040 about

01:53:08.240 that

01:53:08.440 as

01:53:08.580 an

01:53:08.700 equation

01:53:09.140 which

01:53:09.420 was

01:53:09.580 quite

01:53:09.800 interesting

01:53:10.280 so

01:53:10.520 because

01:53:11.060 it's

01:53:11.260 often

01:53:11.540 read

01:53:11.900 as

01:53:17.960 low-end

01:53:18.540 virtue

01:53:18.940 but

01:53:19.320 it

01:53:20.000 isn't

01:53:20.240 what

01:53:20.400 it

01:53:20.560 means

01:53:20.940 what

01:53:21.180 it

01:53:21.320 means

01:53:21.560 is

01:53:21.760 that

01:53:21.980 you

01:53:22.160 should

01:53:22.420 treat

01:53:23.840 your

01:53:24.340 neighbor

01:53:24.660 as

01:53:25.240 if

01:53:25.520 he

01:53:26.060 or

01:53:26.240 she

01:53:26.460 is

01:53:26.940 someone

01:53:27.220 that

01:53:27.460 you

01:53:27.640 wish

01:53:27.840 to

01:53:28.020 encourage

01:53:28.440 and

01:53:28.760 develop

01:53:29.220 but

01:53:30.080 that

01:53:30.240 you

01:53:30.380 should

01:53:30.560 also

01:53:30.860 have

01:53:31.140 exactly

01:53:31.580 the

01:53:31.800 same

01:53:32.000 attitude

01:53:32.360 towards

01:53:32.880 yourself

01:53:33.320 which

01:53:33.600 is

01:53:33.760 sort

01:53:34.240 of

01:53:34.360 in

01:53:34.480 some

01:53:34.680 sense

01:53:34.900 regardless

01:53:35.420 of

01:53:35.660 what

01:53:35.820 your

01:53:36.000 opinion

01:53:36.320 is

01:53:36.680 of

01:53:36.840 yourself

01:53:37.320 critical

01:53:38.420 let's

01:53:38.780 say

01:53:39.000 hypercritical

01:53:40.000 even

01:53:40.240 which

01:53:40.600 is

01:53:40.680 often

01:53:40.920 the

01:53:41.100 case

01:53:41.300 with

01:53:41.460 people

01:53:41.740 who

01:53:47.960 to

01:53:48.180 yourself

01:53:48.700 the

01:53:49.000 same

01:53:49.460 sympathy

01:53:50.460 we

01:53:50.960 could

01:53:51.140 say

01:53:51.460 that

01:53:51.900 you

01:53:52.040 would

01:53:52.160 extend

01:53:52.520 to

01:53:52.760 someone

01:53:53.060 else

01:53:53.320 that

01:53:53.500 you

01:53:53.640 cared

01:53:53.980 for

01:53:54.340 that's

01:53:55.140 the

01:53:55.300 thing

01:53:55.600 is

01:53:55.780 that

01:53:55.920 you

01:53:56.060 have

01:53:56.380 to

01:53:56.560 come

01:53:56.860 to

01:53:57.060 treat

01:53:57.340 yourself

01:53:57.800 as

01:53:58.320 if

01:53:58.540 you're

01:53:58.740 someone

01:53:59.000 that

01:53:59.240 you

01:53:59.380 care

01:53:59.660 for

01:53:59.940 and

01:54:00.300 I

01:54:00.400 mean

01:54:00.540 that

01:54:00.740 technically

01:54:01.400 you

01:54:02.100 know

01:54:02.200 you

01:54:02.360 detach

01:54:02.780 yourself

01:54:03.480 from

01:54:03.740 yourself

01:54:04.160 and

01:54:04.360 you

01:54:04.460 think

01:54:04.660 okay

01:54:04.920 well

01:54:05.140 if

01:54:05.280 I

01:54:05.420 was

01:54:05.580 going

01:54:05.840 to

01:54:06.180 construct

01:54:07.400 a

01:54:08.280 mode

01:54:08.600 of

01:54:08.800 being

01:54:09.100 that

01:54:09.560 was

01:54:09.740 optimal

01:54:10.340 for

01:54:10.640 this

01:54:10.920 person

01:54:11.460 that

01:54:11.720 I

01:54:11.880 happen

01:54:12.180 to

01:54:12.360 be

01:54:12.660 what

01:54:13.340 would

01:54:13.540 that

01:54:13.780 look

01:54:14.100 like

01:54:14.480 and

01:54:14.840 that

01:54:14.980 sort

01:54:15.180 of

01:54:15.280 independent

01:54:15.760 of

01:54:16.020 whether

01:54:16.180 or not

01:54:16.380 you

01:54:16.520 think

01:54:16.780 you

01:54:16.940 deserve

01:54:17.340 it

01:54:17.660 it's

01:54:18.140 like

01:54:18.320 maybe

01:54:18.760 you

01:54:18.940 deserve

01:54:19.240 it

01:54:19.380 maybe

01:54:19.660 you

01:54:19.820 don't

01:54:20.140 innocent

01:54:20.560 until

01:54:20.900 proven

01:54:21.260 guilty

01:54:21.640 that's

01:54:21.980 a

01:54:22.080 pretty

01:54:22.200 good

01:54:22.420 policy

01:54:22.940 but

01:54:23.780 you

01:54:24.260 should

01:54:24.540 come

01:54:24.860 to

01:54:25.180 lay

01:54:25.700 out

01:54:26.040 a

01:54:26.480 mode

01:54:26.680 of

01:54:26.800 being

01:54:26.980 for

01:54:27.200 yourself

01:54:27.620 that

01:54:28.020 gives

01:54:28.780 you

01:54:28.980 some

01:54:29.240 credit

01:54:29.660 you

01:54:30.400 know

01:54:30.480 and

01:54:30.640 that

01:54:30.880 will

01:54:31.640 also

01:54:31.940 help

01:54:32.240 you

01:54:32.380 in

01:54:32.520 your

01:54:32.640 dealings

01:54:32.960 with

01:54:33.120 other

01:54:33.320 people

01:54:33.640 but

01:54:33.840 it's

01:54:34.020 often

01:54:34.260 very

01:54:34.520 difficult

01:54:34.860 for

01:54:35.120 people

01:54:35.360 to

01:54:35.540 do

01:54:35.680 that

01:54:35.880 to

01:54:36.040 themselves

01:54:36.500 okay

01:54:37.560 so

01:54:37.860 that's

01:54:38.560 the

01:54:38.740 first

01:54:39.580 part

01:54:39.860 of

01:54:39.980 that

01:54:40.200 perfect

01:54:41.400 so

01:54:43.340 it

01:54:43.560 starts

01:54:43.820 out

01:54:43.980 with

01:54:44.120 this

01:54:44.300 hyper

01:54:44.560 critical

01:54:45.000 thinking

01:54:45.480 and

01:54:46.180 you

01:54:46.300 talk

01:54:46.580 a lot

01:54:46.880 about

01:54:47.280 Nietzsche's

01:54:48.080 assertion

01:54:48.620 about

01:54:48.920 the

01:54:49.160 death

01:54:49.560 of

01:54:49.740 God

01:54:50.140 but

01:54:51.120 I

01:54:51.400 see

01:54:51.660 it

01:54:51.860 sort

01:54:52.180 of

01:54:52.340 more

01:54:52.560 like

01:54:52.800 a

01:54:53.000 willful

01:54:53.500 destruction

01:54:54.240 of

01:54:54.700 the

01:54:55.040 heroic

01:54:55.980 ideal

01:54:56.560 and

01:54:57.840 I

01:54:58.180 guess

01:54:58.360 several

01:54:58.760 months

01:54:59.100 ago

01:54:59.300 I

01:54:59.460 had

01:54:59.600 occasion

01:54:59.960 to

01:55:00.180 look

01:55:00.400 up

01:55:00.580 a

01:55:00.780 definition

01:55:01.440 or

01:55:02.480 explanation

01:55:03.140 for

01:55:03.880 the

01:55:04.420 zeitgeist

01:55:05.140 of

01:55:05.900 modern

01:55:06.520 victimhood

01:55:07.180 outrage

01:55:07.640 culture

01:55:08.100 and

01:55:08.980 I

01:55:09.240 saw

01:55:09.660 it

01:55:09.860 in

01:55:10.060 this

01:55:10.240 particular

01:55:10.660 case

01:55:11.020 and

01:55:11.140 I

01:55:11.260 found

01:55:11.660 and

01:55:12.320 this

01:55:12.580 paragraph

01:55:13.120 okay

01:55:13.660 this

01:55:13.960 has

01:55:14.320 what

01:55:14.820 you

01:55:14.940 call

01:55:15.200 the

01:55:15.500 rhythmic

01:55:15.860 cadence

01:55:16.480 that

01:55:17.220 just

01:55:17.480 made

01:55:17.840 my

01:55:18.120 hair

01:55:18.480 stand

01:55:18.900 up

01:55:19.100 on

01:55:19.260 its

01:55:19.400 ends

01:55:19.600 and

01:55:20.420 if

01:55:20.560 you

01:55:20.680 could

01:55:20.860 look

01:55:21.100 at

01:55:21.340 it

01:55:21.580 and

01:55:22.180 read

01:55:22.460 this

01:55:22.680 this

01:55:22.860 is

01:55:23.000 better

01:55:23.300 than

01:55:23.480 the

01:55:23.620 last

01:55:23.860 one

01:55:24.080 the

01:55:29.160 image

01:55:29.460 of

01:55:29.620 man

01:55:29.860 that

01:55:30.040 dominates

01:55:30.560 in

01:55:30.700 modern

01:55:30.980 literature

01:55:31.380 in

01:55:31.680 visual

01:55:31.980 art

01:55:32.280 cinema

01:55:32.640 and

01:55:32.900 theater

01:55:33.160 is

01:55:33.420 primarily

01:55:33.840 a

01:55:34.160 gloomy

01:55:34.800 image

01:55:35.200 the

01:55:35.680 great

01:55:35.920 and

01:55:36.080 the

01:55:36.200 noble

01:55:36.420 are

01:55:36.600 suspect

01:55:37.080 from

01:55:37.400 the

01:55:37.540 outset

01:55:37.900 they

01:55:38.700 must

01:55:38.900 be

01:55:39.080 torn

01:55:39.280 from

01:55:39.500 their

01:55:39.660 pedestal

01:55:40.140 so

01:55:40.340 that

01:55:40.500 one

01:55:40.800 can

01:55:41.020 see

01:55:41.240 through

01:55:41.480 them

01:55:41.740 morality

01:55:42.560 counts

01:55:43.000 as

01:55:43.160 hypocrisy

01:55:43.800 and joy

01:55:44.320 as

01:55:44.540 self

01:55:44.760 deception

01:55:45.280 anyone

01:55:46.160 who

01:55:46.440 simply

01:55:46.760 puts

01:55:47.040 trust

01:55:47.380 in

01:55:47.540 the

01:55:47.640 beautiful

01:55:47.940 and

01:55:48.140 the

01:55:48.260 good

01:55:48.420 is

01:55:48.580 either

01:55:48.800 inexcusably

01:55:49.560 ingenuous

01:55:50.640 or

01:55:50.840 acting

01:55:51.180 with

01:55:51.400 evil

01:55:51.680 intent

01:55:52.160 the

01:55:53.120 truly

01:55:53.380 moral

01:55:53.720 attitude

01:55:54.080 is

01:55:54.360 suspicion

01:55:54.900 and

01:55:55.240 its

01:55:55.400 greatest

01:55:55.700 success

01:55:56.360 is

01:55:56.880 in

01:55:57.020 exposing

01:55:57.580 criticism

01:55:58.480 of

01:55:58.900 society

01:55:59.380 is

01:55:59.580 obligatory

01:56:00.240 it

01:56:00.780 is

01:56:00.920 impossible

01:56:01.300 to

01:56:01.600 find

01:56:01.820 words

01:56:02.220 lurid

01:56:02.800 and

01:56:03.040 brutal

01:56:03.360 enough

01:56:03.720 to

01:56:03.940 describe

01:56:04.360 the

01:56:04.540 dangers

01:56:04.880 that

01:56:05.120 threaten

01:56:05.400 us

01:56:05.720 this

01:56:06.420 delight

01:56:06.780 in

01:56:06.940 the

01:56:07.060 negative

01:56:07.400 is

01:56:07.980 not

01:56:08.260 however

01:56:08.660 unlimited

01:56:09.260 there

01:56:10.480 exists

01:56:10.840 at the

01:56:11.160 same

01:56:11.340 time

01:56:11.580 an

01:56:11.740 obligation

01:56:12.220 to

01:56:12.420 be

01:56:12.580 optimistic

01:56:13.120 and

01:56:13.840 the

01:56:14.260 to

01:56:14.480 observe

01:56:15.040 this

01:56:15.760 does

01:56:16.000 not

01:56:16.200 go

01:56:16.400 unpunished

01:56:17.040 for

01:56:17.840 example

01:56:18.160 anyone

01:56:18.480 who

01:56:18.700 expresses

01:56:19.120 the

01:56:19.520 that

01:56:19.720 not

01:56:19.900 everything

01:56:20.300 in

01:56:20.520 the

01:56:20.640 intellectual

01:56:21.100 development

01:56:21.620 of

01:56:21.820 the

01:56:21.940 modern

01:56:22.180 period

01:56:22.500 has

01:56:22.720 been

01:56:22.880 correct

01:56:23.320 that

01:56:23.940 is

01:56:24.120 necessary

01:56:24.640 in

01:56:24.860 some

01:56:25.060 essential

01:56:25.460 areas

01:56:25.800 to

01:56:25.960 reflect

01:56:26.260 on

01:56:26.500 the

01:56:26.640 shared

01:56:26.840 wisdom

01:56:27.160 of

01:56:27.340 the

01:56:27.440 great

01:56:27.640 cultures

01:56:28.060 has

01:56:29.160 chosen

01:56:29.480 to

01:56:29.680 make

01:56:29.820 the

01:56:29.960 wrong

01:56:30.140 kind

01:56:30.380 of

01:56:30.500 criticism

01:56:30.940 he

01:56:31.540 finds

01:56:31.840 himself

01:56:32.160 suddenly

01:56:32.540 confronted

01:56:33.400 with

01:56:33.800 a

01:56:33.940 resolute

01:56:34.400 apologia

01:56:35.100 for

01:56:35.660 the

01:56:35.820 fundamental

01:56:36.240 decisions

01:56:36.720 of

01:56:36.920 the

01:56:37.060 modern

01:56:37.320 age

01:56:37.700 no

01:56:38.360 matter

01:56:38.520 how

01:56:38.740 much

01:56:38.940 delight

01:56:39.300 one

01:56:39.500 may

01:56:39.680 take

01:56:39.940 in

01:56:40.040 negation

01:56:40.500 he

01:56:40.960 is

01:56:41.060 not

01:56:41.260 permitted

01:56:41.640 to

01:56:41.840 call

01:56:42.040 into

01:56:42.240 question

01:56:42.600 the

01:56:42.780 view

01:56:42.960 that

01:56:43.140 the

01:56:43.300 fundamental

01:56:43.740 trajectory

01:56:51.820 about

01:56:52.160 nihilism

01:56:52.940 let's

01:56:53.320 say

01:56:53.520 and

01:56:54.520 and

01:56:55.260 its

01:56:55.400 justification

01:56:56.180 and

01:56:57.360 I

01:56:57.480 think

01:56:57.720 that

01:56:57.960 a

01:56:59.060 very

01:56:59.260 powerful

01:56:59.720 justification

01:57:00.300 for

01:57:00.780 nihilism

01:57:01.320 can be

01:57:02.080 found

01:57:02.380 in the

01:57:02.680 mere

01:57:02.900 observation

01:57:03.360 that

01:57:03.820 life

01:57:04.160 is

01:57:04.360 rife

01:57:04.720 with

01:57:04.940 tragedy

01:57:05.460 and

01:57:06.020 malevolence

01:57:06.680 of

01:57:07.560 which

01:57:07.780 there

01:57:08.260 is

01:57:08.440 no

01:57:08.600 doubt

01:57:08.940 but

01:57:10.600 then

01:57:10.780 I

01:57:10.940 I

01:57:11.560 got

01:57:11.740 suspicious

01:57:12.380 of

01:57:12.760 that

01:57:13.120 rationale

01:57:14.760 for

01:57:15.100 nihilism

01:57:15.600 over

01:57:15.800 the

01:57:15.980 years

01:57:16.180 because

01:57:16.520 a

01:57:16.980 counter

01:57:17.260 position

01:57:17.700 to

01:57:18.620 it

01:57:18.800 emerged

01:57:19.380 and

01:57:19.600 this

01:57:19.840 is

01:57:19.960 something

01:57:20.240 Nietzsche

01:57:20.560 of

01:57:20.720 course

01:57:20.900 concentrated

01:57:21.460 on

01:57:21.700 as

01:57:21.840 well

01:57:22.080 that

01:57:22.460 had

01:57:22.640 more

01:57:22.820 to

01:57:22.940 do

01:57:23.060 with

01:57:23.200 resentment

01:57:23.680 it's

01:57:24.260 like

01:57:24.440 you

01:57:26.580 can

01:57:26.740 imagine

01:57:27.140 negation

01:57:27.720 of

01:57:27.880 the

01:57:28.020 heroic

01:57:28.340 ideal

01:57:28.800 from

01:57:29.400 despair

01:57:29.960 from

01:57:30.480 the

01:57:30.620 despair

01:57:30.980 say

01:57:31.320 produced

01:57:31.700 by

01:57:31.900 tragedy

01:57:32.320 and

01:57:32.540 by

01:57:32.760 exposure

01:57:33.280 to

01:57:33.500 malevolence

01:57:34.020 but

01:57:34.620 it's

01:57:35.300 also

01:57:35.660 it's

01:57:37.300 completely

01:57:37.800 and

01:57:38.040 delightfully

01:57:38.520 irresponsible

01:57:39.160 to

01:57:39.520 negate

01:57:39.880 the

01:57:40.040 heroic

01:57:40.320 ideal

01:57:40.720 because

01:57:41.600 it

01:57:41.740 means

01:57:41.940 that

01:57:42.100 you

01:57:42.200 don't

01:57:42.320 have

01:57:42.500 any

01:57:42.640 responsibility

01:57:43.240 and

01:57:44.720 it

01:57:44.860 seems

01:57:45.060 to

01:57:45.240 me

01:57:45.420 that

01:57:45.720 if

01:57:46.560 you're

01:57:46.860 nihilistic

01:57:47.580 and

01:57:48.580 prone

01:57:48.980 to

01:57:49.380 criticize

01:57:50.320 the

01:57:50.760 heroic

01:57:51.120 foundation

01:57:51.900 of

01:57:52.260 let's

01:57:52.680 say

01:57:52.820 western

01:57:53.160 culture

01:57:53.600 that

01:57:54.340 one

01:57:54.500 of

01:57:54.620 the

01:57:54.740 first

01:57:54.940 questions

01:57:55.340 that

01:57:55.520 you

01:57:55.660 could

01:57:55.820 ask

01:57:56.120 yourself

01:57:56.480 is

01:57:56.760 what

01:57:57.460 makes

01:57:57.800 you

01:57:58.000 so

01:57:58.220 sure

01:57:58.540 that

01:57:58.800 you're

01:57:59.180 appropriately

01:58:00.080 cynical

01:58:00.700 suspicious

01:58:01.300 and

01:58:01.620 critical

01:58:01.980 and

01:58:02.500 not

01:58:02.700 just

01:58:02.980 running

01:58:03.380 away

01:58:03.660 as

01:58:03.840 fast

01:58:04.180 as

01:58:04.320 you

01:58:04.460 possibly

01:58:04.900 can

01:58:05.220 from

01:58:05.400 every

01:58:05.680 bit

01:58:05.880 of

01:58:05.980 responsibility

01:58:06.540 that

01:58:06.980 you

01:58:07.100 could

01:58:07.260 possibly

01:58:07.740 adopt

01:58:08.240 and

01:58:09.380 I

01:58:09.580 think

01:58:09.780 that

01:58:09.940 that's

01:58:10.160 a

01:58:10.260 perfectly

01:58:10.560 reasonable

01:58:11.060 perspective

01:58:11.720 and

01:58:12.020 I

01:58:12.220 think

01:58:12.440 that

01:58:12.600 that

01:58:12.760 is

01:58:12.920 reflected

01:58:13.380 to

01:58:13.600 some

01:58:13.800 degree

01:58:14.080 in

01:58:14.260 what

01:58:14.440 the

01:58:15.000 person

01:58:15.300 who

01:58:15.480 wrote

01:58:15.660 this

01:58:15.860 paragraph

01:58:16.180 was

01:58:16.500 attempting

01:58:16.860 to

01:58:17.120 can you

01:58:17.300 guess

01:58:17.560 who it

01:58:17.840 was

01:58:18.040 who wrote

01:58:18.320 that

01:58:18.480 paragraph

01:58:18.680 no

01:58:18.880 I

01:58:19.080 can't

01:58:20.200 really

01:58:20.500 no

01:58:21.240 I

01:58:22.880 left

01:58:23.160 you

01:58:23.320 a hint

01:58:23.760 at the

01:58:24.240 who

01:58:25.060 was

01:58:25.320 it

01:58:25.980 Cardinal

01:58:26.500 Ratzinger

01:58:27.080 come on

01:58:27.480 there

01:58:28.440 it

01:58:28.600 all right

01:58:29.540 I'm

01:58:29.900 going to

01:58:30.140 take

01:58:30.360 another

01:58:30.620 question

01:58:31.180 well

01:58:32.300 done

01:58:32.680 hello

01:58:38.600 hello

01:58:39.760 how are

01:58:40.520 you doing

01:58:40.900 doing

01:58:41.520 good

01:58:41.860 Dr.

01:58:42.260 Peterson

01:58:42.520 it's

01:58:43.140 been

01:58:43.280 a

01:58:43.400 pleasure

01:58:43.660 12

01:58:44.440 weeks

01:58:44.880 12

01:58:45.740 12

01:58:47.040 moments

01:58:47.520 let's

01:58:47.760 say

01:58:47.980 okay

01:58:48.740 so

01:58:49.620 two

01:58:50.220 weeks

01:58:50.420 ago

01:58:50.620 we

01:58:50.820 talked

01:58:51.120 about

01:58:51.520 your

01:58:52.380 mischievous

01:58:53.200 suggestion

01:58:53.940 I

01:58:54.540 might

01:58:55.200 say

01:58:55.520 to

01:58:56.320 cut

01:58:56.760 the

01:58:56.920 university's

01:58:57.640 funding

01:58:57.940 by

01:58:58.120 25%

01:58:58.820 and

01:58:59.080 how

01:58:59.280 that

01:58:59.480 might

01:58:59.680 have

01:58:59.880 influenced

01:59:00.960 that

01:59:01.660 sort

01:59:01.880 of

01:59:01.980 language

01:59:02.260 and

01:59:02.800 Andrew

01:59:03.700 Shear's

01:59:04.220 platform

01:59:05.480 right

01:59:05.800 yeah

01:59:06.200 and so

01:59:06.720 and then

01:59:07.180 you discussed

01:59:07.980 how

01:59:08.360 you're not

01:59:08.880 exactly

01:59:09.200 sure

01:59:09.500 what your

01:59:09.940 role is

01:59:10.800 in all

01:59:11.080 of this

01:59:11.540 and

01:59:12.040 and that

01:59:13.260 you don't

01:59:14.860 want to be

01:59:15.220 in a war

01:59:15.760 and you

01:59:16.000 don't want

01:59:16.260 to be

01:59:16.440 using

01:59:16.700 war-like

01:59:17.280 language

01:59:17.900 and

01:59:19.120 and

01:59:22.120 I think

01:59:22.760 I think

01:59:23.340 what you

01:59:23.820 what you

01:59:24.780 want to be

01:59:25.180 doing

01:59:25.480 is

01:59:25.840 you're

01:59:27.180 trying to

01:59:27.600 restore

01:59:28.180 order

01:59:28.580 but not

01:59:29.180 but not

01:59:30.680 but not

01:59:31.380 have

01:59:31.560 conflict

01:59:32.000 and

01:59:32.720 and so

01:59:35.440 I

01:59:35.720 so I

01:59:36.580 so after

01:59:37.300 the

01:59:37.660 after the

01:59:38.260 lecture

01:59:39.200 two weeks

01:59:39.600 ago

01:59:39.760 I asked

01:59:40.440 you like

01:59:40.820 maybe I

01:59:42.180 should

01:59:42.360 do some

01:59:43.160 sales work

01:59:43.860 for your

01:59:44.980 postmodern

01:59:46.640 lexicon

01:59:47.120 website

01:59:47.620 and

01:59:48.180 but I

01:59:49.860 think I've

01:59:50.220 found a

01:59:50.700 better niche

01:59:51.440 for

01:59:52.200 someone of

01:59:53.260 my temperament

01:59:54.000 to help

01:59:54.620 this cause

01:59:55.900 so

01:59:56.540 so I

01:59:57.600 think

01:59:57.800 so I

01:59:58.580 go to

01:59:58.800 Dalhousie

01:59:59.260 University

01:59:59.720 and

02:00:00.700 because

02:00:01.300 so many

02:00:02.020 students

02:00:02.660 are

02:00:03.600 dropping

02:00:04.300 out

02:00:05.080 men

02:00:05.440 and

02:00:05.600 especially

02:00:06.140 ethnic

02:00:08.400 minorities

02:00:27.240 and I

02:00:27.640 think

02:00:28.080 like

02:00:29.060 how much

02:00:29.600 does it

02:00:29.900 cost

02:00:30.300 for a

02:00:30.960 single

02:00:31.220 person

02:00:31.580 to do

02:00:31.860 the

02:00:32.020 self

02:00:32.320 authoring

02:00:32.840 program

02:00:33.300 well

02:00:35.220 it's

02:00:35.520 two

02:00:35.920 for

02:00:36.120 one

02:00:36.380 so

02:00:36.580 it's

02:00:36.740 about

02:00:36.940 fifteen

02:00:37.320 dollars

02:00:37.780 okay

02:00:38.520 so

02:00:39.020 okay

02:00:39.520 so

02:00:39.920 nothing

02:00:40.380 then

02:00:40.800 basically

02:00:41.260 but I

02:00:42.660 was

02:00:42.860 thinking

02:00:43.180 that

02:00:43.560 we

02:00:43.960 somehow

02:00:44.880 we

02:00:45.480 could

02:00:45.760 incorporate

02:00:46.640 the

02:00:46.860 self

02:00:47.100 authoring

02:00:47.520 program

02:00:47.940 into

02:00:48.440 this

02:00:48.900 into

02:00:49.900 this

02:00:50.300 new

02:00:50.860 advisor

02:00:52.640 committee

02:00:53.140 at

02:00:53.540 DAL

02:00:53.880 so that

02:00:54.340 students

02:00:54.760 can

02:00:55.100 figure

02:00:55.800 knock

02:00:55.820 yourself

02:00:56.120 out

02:00:56.380 man

02:00:56.700 do it

02:00:57.580 that's

02:00:58.460 like

02:00:59.820 the data

02:01:00.300 for the

02:01:00.840 future

02:01:01.100 authoring

02:01:01.460 program

02:01:01.760 is quite

02:01:02.160 clear

02:01:02.440 if students

02:01:03.000 even

02:01:03.360 do it

02:01:03.920 for an

02:01:04.200 hour

02:01:04.480 before

02:01:05.520 they

02:01:05.740 go to

02:01:06.020 university

02:01:06.380 they have

02:01:06.900 about a

02:01:07.540 30%

02:01:07.980 less

02:01:08.320 chance

02:01:08.680 of

02:01:08.880 dropping

02:01:09.220 out

02:01:09.420 in the

02:01:09.600 first

02:01:09.780 semester

02:01:10.180 so

02:01:11.240 you know

02:01:11.980 and it

02:01:12.400 would

02:01:12.520 really

02:01:12.700 be nice

02:01:13.220 to see

02:01:13.600 some

02:01:13.880 student

02:01:14.160 organizations

02:01:14.580 that

02:01:15.060 were

02:01:15.260 seriously

02:01:16.300 devoted

02:01:16.920 to

02:01:17.260 facilitating

02:01:17.880 student

02:01:18.340 success

02:01:18.800 you might

02:01:19.440 think

02:01:19.640 that's

02:01:19.920 what

02:01:20.040 student

02:01:20.300 organizations

02:01:20.940 should

02:01:21.340 do

02:01:21.740 in

02:01:22.260 fact

02:01:22.580 well

02:01:23.200 it

02:01:23.380 seems

02:01:23.660 rather

02:01:24.020 self-evident

02:01:24.760 when you

02:01:25.160 think

02:01:25.380 about

02:01:25.620 it

02:01:25.760 but

02:01:25.940 you know

02:01:26.480 so I

02:01:26.860 would

02:01:26.980 say

02:01:27.220 like

02:01:27.440 if

02:01:27.600 you're

02:01:27.760 oriented

02:01:28.120 in that

02:01:28.480 direction

02:01:28.940 get

02:01:29.860 at her

02:01:30.260 so

02:01:31.300 it's

02:01:32.000 a fine

02:01:32.400 plan

02:01:32.780 and it's

02:01:33.140 I like

02:01:33.740 the

02:01:34.080 emphasis

02:01:34.540 of it

02:01:34.920 because

02:01:35.200 you're

02:01:35.460 directing

02:01:36.020 yourself

02:01:36.540 towards

02:01:37.020 the

02:01:37.500 facilitation

02:01:38.240 of

02:01:38.440 individual

02:01:38.900 accomplishment

02:01:39.480 and

02:01:39.840 you're

02:01:40.460 at least

02:01:40.840 going

02:01:41.140 to do

02:01:41.460 very

02:01:41.760 little

02:01:42.020 harm

02:01:42.420 that

02:01:42.760 way

02:01:43.040 and

02:01:43.740 that's

02:01:43.980 a

02:01:44.080 really

02:01:44.220 good

02:01:44.420 start

02:01:44.820 man

02:01:45.100 you know

02:01:45.400 that's

02:01:45.840 that

02:01:46.080 because

02:01:47.040 that's

02:01:47.440 that's

02:01:47.680 what

02:01:47.820 you

02:01:47.980 should

02:01:48.140 think

02:01:48.400 about

02:01:48.600 when

02:01:48.800 you're

02:01:49.060 setting

02:01:49.640 out

02:01:49.840 to

02:01:49.980 make

02:01:50.180 things

02:01:50.460 better

02:01:50.760 the

02:01:51.180 first

02:01:51.380 thing

02:01:51.580 you

02:01:51.720 should

02:01:51.880 think

02:01:52.140 is

02:01:52.360 I'm

02:01:53.100 not

02:01:53.280 so

02:01:53.480 sure

02:01:53.680 I

02:01:53.820 know

02:01:53.940 what

02:01:54.080 I'm

02:01:54.240 doing

02:01:54.520 so

02:01:55.220 why

02:01:55.420 don't

02:01:55.560 I

02:01:55.700 first

02:01:56.060 attempt

02:01:56.780 to do

02:01:57.520 the

02:01:57.720 least

02:01:58.020 amount

02:01:58.360 of

02:01:58.540 harm

02:01:58.840 possible

02:01:59.420 and

02:02:00.180 by

02:02:00.360 concentrating

02:02:00.920 on

02:02:01.160 helping

02:02:01.440 someone

02:02:01.760 develop

02:02:02.160 their

02:02:02.380 own

02:02:02.620 plan

02:02:03.100 and

02:02:03.360 implement

02:02:04.580 that

02:02:04.980 into

02:02:05.160 the

02:02:05.340 future

02:02:05.700 and

02:02:05.980 encouraging

02:02:06.820 them

02:02:07.080 with

02:02:07.240 regards

02:02:07.580 to

02:02:07.760 whatever

02:02:08.320 success

02:02:08.900 they

02:02:09.160 would

02:02:09.360 like

02:02:09.620 define

02:02:10.100 their

02:02:10.420 way

02:02:10.800 there's

02:02:11.460 a

02:02:11.560 pretty

02:02:11.700 low

02:02:11.940 probability

02:02:12.380 that

02:02:12.800 you're

02:02:13.000 going

02:02:13.180 to

02:02:13.620 act

02:02:13.980 the

02:02:14.200 tyrant

02:02:15.080 and

02:02:15.320 play

02:02:16.380 a

02:02:16.600 detrimental

02:02:16.940 role

02:02:17.460 so

02:02:18.000 good luck

02:02:19.540 maybe we can

02:02:20.660 communicate

02:02:21.020 thank you

02:02:21.420 thank you

02:02:21.980 yes

02:02:22.260 I'm going to send you an email

02:02:23.240 thank you very much

02:02:24.120 hi Dr. Peterson

02:02:28.100 this is the

02:02:29.380 first of these lectures

02:02:30.580 that I've been here to listen to

02:02:32.340 but I've listened to all of them on YouTube so far

02:02:34.180 oh sorry

02:02:35.440 am I not close enough

02:02:36.260 not quite

02:02:36.820 that's good

02:02:37.420 okay

02:02:37.780 yeah

02:02:38.240 and

02:02:40.000 I've been trying to think up

02:02:41.880 this question since basically the first lecture

02:02:44.780 because

02:02:45.300 I'm a seminary student at an evangelical seminary

02:02:49.040 and

02:02:49.780 a lot of what you've been saying has really been resonating

02:02:52.680 and it's

02:02:53.260 and it's really been fascinating to listen to

02:02:55.560 and you know there's been many people who've been asking you questions

02:02:59.820 like what do you believe about the resurrection

02:03:01.880 do you believe in God

02:03:02.940 are you a Christian

02:03:03.680 and all these sorts of things

02:03:04.680 and you know I've been listening very closely to all your answers

02:03:07.060 and have groups of friends on Facebook

02:03:09.140 who are following very closely

02:03:10.860 saying oh you hear what Peterson said this time

02:03:12.860 maybe he's one of us finally

02:03:13.980 or something like that

02:03:14.940 but at the same time

02:03:18.460 other ways that you explain some of the stories

02:03:21.320 sound very close to what we call theological liberalism

02:03:24.740 you know in the 19th century

02:03:26.080 the idea that you know using historical critical methods

02:03:28.600 of reading and interpreting the Bible

02:03:30.500 and understanding Jesus more as a moral figure

02:03:33.180 than as a literal historical figure

02:03:35.040 whose atonement provides satisfaction for man

02:03:37.780 so I tried to figure out what the question was

02:03:41.360 because I could interpret what some of your answers were

02:03:43.680 so I'm going to put it in a more of a general way

02:03:45.900 where exactly do you see yourself differing

02:03:50.020 from traditional orthodox evangelical Christianity

02:03:53.440 and why would you differ there

02:03:56.080 given how much you seem to understand

02:03:59.060 the importance of the biblical stories

02:04:00.620 in western history

02:04:02.660 okay okay

02:04:04.040 well that's a good question

02:04:05.680 well

02:04:06.520 obviously I have to answer in a general way

02:04:10.880 I mean I think that one of the things

02:04:13.180 that makes me different

02:04:14.100 is that I take the idea

02:04:15.820 that things are 14 billion years old seriously

02:04:18.560 you know

02:04:19.600 and the idea of evolution seriously

02:04:22.300 I mean as does the Catholic Church by the way

02:04:25.140 and so

02:04:26.180 but I don't see that as an impediment

02:04:28.440 to the pursuit that I'm undertaking

02:04:30.780 now I don't know how to bridge that gap precisely

02:04:33.580 but I'm not that worried about it

02:04:36.020 I mean you can't bridge every gap

02:04:37.800 it's just not possible

02:04:38.760 it would require infinite knowledge

02:04:40.280 okay

02:04:41.320 and how so

02:04:41.900 that's one major

02:04:43.020 because I'm coming at this from a scientific

02:04:45.000 I really am coming at this from a scientific perspective

02:04:47.760 you know

02:04:48.240 like I try to make sure that everything that I talk about

02:04:50.820 is commensurate with current scientific knowledge

02:04:53.720 now current scientific knowledge

02:04:55.500 no doubt is erring in all sorts of ways

02:04:57.220 like I think our notion about

02:04:58.680 exactly how evolution progresses

02:05:00.480 is flawed in many many ways

02:05:02.440 and the recent discoveries in the field of epigenetics

02:05:05.540 which show that you can actually transmit acquired characteristics

02:05:08.600 you know

02:05:09.260 has really put a whole

02:05:10.300 real serious

02:05:11.760 stick in the spokes of the

02:05:14.280 evolutionary bicycle

02:05:15.500 let's say

02:05:16.120 but

02:05:16.920 but then

02:05:18.160 I also think the question is

02:05:20.460 mis-asked in some sense

02:05:22.620 because

02:05:22.900 I gave this lecture series a specific title

02:05:25.560 for a specific reason

02:05:26.700 and the lecture series is

02:05:28.260 the psychological significance of the biblical stories

02:05:31.440 now I'm not claiming that

02:05:33.400 my psychological analysis

02:05:35.380 exhausts the significance of the biblical stories

02:05:38.500 you know

02:05:39.420 they have

02:05:40.060 multitudes

02:05:41.620 let's say

02:05:42.260 layers of meaning

02:05:43.480 and some of those layers are metaphysical

02:05:45.740 and some of them are more specifically religious

02:05:47.520 and I'm trying

02:05:48.540 the best I can

02:05:49.640 not to wander into those domains

02:05:51.540 like I do

02:05:52.140 because it's impossible to keep yourself bounded

02:05:54.300 you know

02:05:55.220 when you're a discursive speaker

02:05:57.040 let's say

02:05:57.560 but I'm trying to

02:05:58.780 what I'm trying to do

02:06:00.160 is the sort of thing that Jung did

02:06:01.620 essentially

02:06:02.080 is to take a look at these old stories

02:06:03.660 and say

02:06:03.980 okay

02:06:04.240 well let's look at this

02:06:05.160 from the perspective of

02:06:06.360 the human psyche

02:06:07.600 and let's see

02:06:08.780 what the significance can be

02:06:10.920 and not to say

02:06:12.320 that's all the significance there is

02:06:14.660 who knows what significance there is

02:06:16.860 one thing I have learned

02:06:18.080 about the biblical stories

02:06:19.140 is that

02:06:19.580 no matter how deep you go into them

02:06:21.560 you are not at the bottom

02:06:22.680 and so that's been very very interesting to me

02:06:25.840 and God only knows

02:06:27.400 about the metaphysical

02:06:29.020 substructure of reality

02:06:30.660 because human beings certainly don't

02:06:32.420 so I don't

02:06:33.640 I don't

02:06:34.920 want to claim

02:06:35.820 that what I'm doing

02:06:36.760 is a religious interpretation

02:06:37.980 although you know

02:06:38.740 it drifts into that direction

02:06:40.320 I want to stay within the purview

02:06:42.860 of my expertise

02:06:44.100 such as it is

02:06:45.060 and to say

02:06:45.580 well

02:06:45.900 if you look at this psychologically

02:06:47.740 here's what you can extract

02:06:49.660 as

02:06:50.100 as

02:06:50.880 pragmatically

02:06:52.160 existentially

02:06:53.180 and clinically meaningful

02:06:54.480 and the rest of it

02:06:55.980 well

02:06:56.720 the rest of it

02:06:57.460 has to be left in abeyance

02:06:58.820 and

02:06:59.060 because

02:07:00.040 I don't have the

02:07:01.580 capacity

02:07:03.060 to

02:07:03.520 investigate claims

02:07:05.520 that go beyond that

02:07:06.480 that does not mean

02:07:08.240 that I'm saying

02:07:08.980 that

02:07:09.260 what I'm doing

02:07:10.360 is reducing

02:07:11.320 these stories

02:07:12.440 to their psychological significance

02:07:14.020 even though the psyche

02:07:15.000 is a grand thing

02:07:16.020 I'm not trying to do that

02:07:17.500 it's not reductionistic

02:07:18.900 it's a take on it

02:07:20.620 so

02:07:21.560 people can make up

02:07:22.980 their own minds

02:07:23.580 metaphysically

02:07:24.280 and they also have to make up

02:07:25.660 their own minds

02:07:26.140 about how they're going to act

02:07:27.620 which is really the crucial issue

02:07:29.140 as far as I'm concerned

02:07:30.100 so

02:07:31.280 thank you very much

02:07:32.940 you bet

02:07:33.240 applause

02:07:34.600 hi

02:07:40.600 hi

02:07:41.100 I had a question

02:07:42.020 with respect to

02:07:42.960 data that you presented

02:07:44.060 I believe two weeks ago

02:07:45.400 sorry

02:07:45.940 a question with respect to

02:07:47.040 to data that you presented

02:07:48.080 I believe two lectures ago

02:07:49.300 regarding

02:07:50.040 the use of

02:07:51.740 psilocybin

02:07:52.660 in treatment of mental illness

02:07:54.380 yes

02:07:54.940 so subsequently

02:07:56.080 I looked up

02:07:56.740 some of the

02:07:57.380 recently published

02:07:58.500 literature

02:07:59.080 and one of the studies

02:08:00.200 I found

02:08:00.760 extremely striking

02:08:02.260 was one that was published

02:08:03.360 less than a year ago

02:08:04.300 in the Lancet

02:08:05.520 which is a

02:08:06.000 very high impact

02:08:07.140 well respected journal

02:08:08.640 and what they looked at

02:08:10.380 was efficacy

02:08:11.480 in patients

02:08:12.600 with

02:08:13.160 severe

02:08:14.920 treatment resistant

02:08:15.800 depression

02:08:16.320 and what they found

02:08:17.840 is that

02:08:18.300 in 11 out of 12

02:08:19.680 of the patients

02:08:20.420 they showed

02:08:22.160 significant

02:08:23.160 remittance

02:08:23.980 following just a

02:08:25.360 single dose

02:08:26.120 of the substance

02:08:27.060 up to

02:08:28.080 three months

02:08:28.740 following

02:08:29.240 the single dose

02:08:30.340 without additional

02:08:31.200 dosing

02:08:31.720 so this not only

02:08:33.700 substantiates

02:08:34.880 I suppose

02:08:35.460 my own experiences

02:08:36.420 but

02:08:37.000 when you read

02:08:38.400 some of the

02:08:38.740 commentary

02:08:39.160 or

02:08:40.040 review articles

02:08:41.820 surrounding

02:08:42.200 these types of

02:08:43.200 topics

02:08:43.540 not with

02:08:43.960 respects to

02:08:44.840 depression

02:08:45.680 but

02:08:46.240 things like

02:08:47.240 post-traumatic stress

02:08:48.420 disorder

02:08:49.160 addiction

02:08:50.360 they'll unequivocally

02:08:52.080 state that

02:08:52.960 these types of

02:08:53.820 results

02:08:54.200 are completely

02:08:55.240 unprecedented

02:08:56.580 in the realm

02:08:58.080 of psychiatric

02:08:58.840 medicine

02:08:59.460 so I was wondering

02:09:00.900 if you could comment

02:09:01.500 as to whether or not

02:09:02.500 that type of

02:09:03.860 rhetoric is

02:09:04.660 overblown

02:09:05.400 and if not

02:09:06.900 do you see these

02:09:08.400 being more

02:09:08.860 mainstream

02:09:09.240 in the near future

02:09:10.000 or suspect

02:09:10.980 they'll

02:09:11.460 fall victim

02:09:13.040 to something

02:09:13.480 along the lines

02:09:13.940 of regulatory

02:09:14.480 capture

02:09:15.080 no I don't

02:09:15.880 well

02:09:16.440 I don't think

02:09:17.960 they're overstatements

02:09:18.840 and I know

02:09:19.620 some of the people

02:09:20.260 who are engaged

02:09:20.860 in this research

02:09:21.500 and they're actually

02:09:22.140 very conservative

02:09:22.860 people

02:09:23.340 like they're brave

02:09:24.200 people

02:09:24.640 but I mean

02:09:25.700 conservative in the

02:09:26.480 best sense

02:09:27.060 you know

02:09:27.340 they're not

02:09:27.740 Timothy Leary

02:09:28.840 and I'm not

02:09:29.740 trying to put down

02:09:30.460 Timothy Leary

02:09:31.120 I'm really not

02:09:31.860 but you know

02:09:33.200 some caution

02:09:34.900 would have been

02:09:35.360 a good thing

02:09:36.080 although

02:09:37.220 you know

02:09:38.120 when something like

02:09:39.880 when the psychedelics

02:09:41.620 burst onto the scene

02:09:42.640 no one had any idea

02:09:43.600 what to do with them

02:09:44.380 right so

02:09:44.880 and we still really don't

02:09:46.440 but the new research

02:09:47.620 is being conducted

02:09:48.300 very very carefully

02:09:49.240 but it is really

02:09:50.400 remarkable

02:09:50.920 that those

02:09:51.680 epithets are used

02:09:53.020 or those

02:09:53.500 terms are used

02:09:54.720 to describe the results

02:09:55.760 because those are

02:09:56.400 the Lancet for example

02:09:57.540 is one of the top

02:09:58.220 end medical journals

02:09:59.020 you don't see

02:10:00.980 grand claims

02:10:02.080 in the Lancet

02:10:02.880 right

02:10:03.140 scientists don't

02:10:03.980 write that way

02:10:04.720 they're trained

02:10:06.240 from the very beginning

02:10:07.400 to downplay

02:10:08.320 their results

02:10:09.020 but they're quite

02:10:10.080 struck by the fact

02:10:11.040 that these effects

02:10:12.020 occur with single doses

02:10:13.200 now I think

02:10:15.240 that what we don't

02:10:16.060 know about psychedelics

02:10:17.460 could fill many

02:10:18.360 many many

02:10:19.000 thick volumes

02:10:19.900 and they're

02:10:21.040 absolutely mysterious

02:10:22.580 in their function

02:10:23.960 purpose

02:10:24.960 effect

02:10:25.900 consequence

02:10:26.980 all of that

02:10:27.880 and I've always

02:10:29.000 thought that it was

02:10:29.720 really appalling

02:10:31.120 that we stopped

02:10:31.820 investigating them

02:10:32.580 back in the 1960s

02:10:33.660 although it's not

02:10:34.200 been that long

02:10:34.820 you know

02:10:35.080 20 years

02:10:36.360 historically speaking

02:10:37.340 it's really nothing

02:10:38.460 but

02:10:39.420 and no I don't

02:10:41.740 think that they'll

02:10:42.280 be

02:10:42.500 that the research

02:10:43.460 will be stopped

02:10:43.960 by regulatory capture

02:10:45.660 because

02:10:46.240 the people who are

02:10:47.340 doing it now

02:10:48.060 I think learned

02:10:48.940 their lesson

02:10:49.440 from what happened

02:10:50.080 in the 60s

02:10:50.780 and are doing it

02:10:51.660 pretty damn

02:10:52.560 carefully

02:10:53.080 so we can hope

02:10:54.720 that more results

02:10:55.660 like this are

02:10:56.460 produced

02:10:57.220 and that they're

02:10:57.900 replicable

02:10:58.700 and that perhaps

02:10:59.960 they'll prove

02:11:01.560 helpful

02:11:02.000 with any luck

02:11:03.440 yep

02:11:04.740 hi Dr. Peterson

02:11:12.500 I've found this

02:11:13.460 lecture series

02:11:14.320 really really

02:11:14.920 enthralling

02:11:15.600 and it

02:11:16.240 it occurs

02:11:17.320 why

02:11:17.540 no it's such a strange thing to say

02:11:20.620 if I try to explain that

02:11:21.080 I want time for the question

02:11:22.100 yeah well that's okay

02:11:23.180 I'll let you get to the question

02:11:24.620 but I'm curious

02:11:25.680 like

02:11:26.000 why do you think that is

02:11:28.840 because it's a strange thing

02:11:30.200 to have happen

02:11:30.940 like

02:11:31.240 it's a lecture

02:11:32.680 on the bible

02:11:33.880 for God's sake

02:11:34.800 you know

02:11:35.080 it's like

02:11:35.480 it's not something

02:11:36.680 you'd go to a

02:11:37.520 venture capitalist

02:11:38.540 with a business plan for

02:11:39.920 so like

02:11:40.920 what is it about it

02:11:42.540 do you think

02:11:42.900 that's been

02:11:43.380 that's had that effect

02:11:44.960 on you

02:11:45.800 ha

02:11:47.460 I asked you a question

02:11:48.560 instead

02:11:49.080 look

02:11:53.260 I don't want to

02:11:54.080 I don't want to put you

02:11:54.860 on the spot

02:11:55.300 if you want to just

02:11:55.940 move to your question

02:11:56.740 that's fine

02:11:57.240 but if you have an answer

02:11:58.180 to that

02:11:58.500 I would be very interested

02:11:59.520 in knowing what it is

02:12:00.620 well

02:12:03.080 it's

02:12:05.260 it's a thrill

02:12:06.380 to

02:12:08.120 encounter

02:12:09.260 a

02:12:10.840 kind of

02:12:11.900 means to a

02:12:13.300 metaphysical system

02:12:14.340 that's so

02:12:14.960 persuasive

02:12:15.940 and potent

02:12:16.720 and I hadn't

02:12:18.080 really experienced

02:12:19.080 that a whole lot

02:12:20.180 in my life

02:12:20.740 that's what

02:12:22.180 universities are

02:12:22.940 supposed to do

02:12:23.580 for people

02:12:24.100 that's what

02:12:25.500 universities are

02:12:26.280 supposed to do

02:12:26.880 for people

02:12:27.360 they're not

02:12:28.020 supposed to

02:12:28.520 take people

02:12:29.080 who are barely

02:12:29.620 hanging together

02:12:30.360 and break them

02:12:31.480 and make them

02:12:32.100 weak

02:12:32.420 they're supposed

02:12:33.420 to equate them

02:12:34.420 with the heroic

02:12:35.760 the heroic

02:12:37.620 substructure

02:12:38.540 of the human psyche

02:12:39.680 so that they can

02:12:40.620 move out into

02:12:41.400 the world

02:12:41.800 and thrive

02:12:42.580 and it's an

02:12:43.720 absolute crime

02:12:44.780 that that isn't

02:12:45.640 what's happening

02:12:46.280 so hooray for

02:12:47.680 that man

02:12:48.300 it occurred to me

02:12:56.540 that the kind

02:12:57.060 of tradition

02:12:57.580 and genre

02:12:58.780 that you are

02:12:59.540 working in

02:13:00.960 here

02:13:01.480 is that

02:13:03.000 of the sermon

02:13:03.700 now are you

02:13:05.040 comfortable with

02:13:05.560 that categorization

02:13:06.460 and why

02:13:07.360 so far

02:13:07.720 we'll see where

02:13:09.100 you go with it

02:13:10.040 well that's

02:13:11.700 that's the essence

02:13:12.340 of my question

02:13:12.840 are these sermons

02:13:14.360 and might

02:13:15.640 one then

02:13:17.100 call you a preacher

02:13:17.960 I don't know

02:13:18.780 sorry what was

02:13:19.880 the last part

02:13:20.340 might one

02:13:20.820 call you a preacher

02:13:21.740 well you could

02:13:23.000 certainly call me

02:13:23.700 one

02:13:23.980 and you know

02:13:24.860 I think that

02:13:28.440 there's a certain

02:13:29.660 overlap

02:13:30.300 and the overlap

02:13:31.040 but this has been

02:13:32.160 characteristic of

02:13:32.920 my approach to

02:13:33.480 education right

02:13:34.320 from the beginning

02:13:34.920 because I have

02:13:35.580 some rules

02:13:36.020 about what I

02:13:36.560 lecture

02:13:36.880 what about

02:13:38.680 the topics

02:13:39.300 that I lecture

02:13:39.880 about

02:13:40.140 and the way

02:13:40.600 that I deal

02:13:41.180 with it

02:13:41.460 so the first

02:13:42.660 rule is

02:13:43.080 I don't want

02:13:43.640 to tell you

02:13:44.000 anything that

02:13:44.440 isn't useful

02:13:45.040 I'm a pragmatist

02:13:47.240 you know

02:13:47.480 like I'm an

02:13:47.940 American pragmatist

02:13:48.900 that's part of

02:13:49.400 my philosophical

02:13:50.160 grounding

02:13:50.820 and I believe

02:13:52.300 that knowledge

02:13:52.780 is tool-like

02:13:53.920 and that the

02:13:55.060 proper thing

02:13:55.640 to do

02:13:56.000 is to

02:13:56.360 equip people

02:13:58.240 with the tools

02:13:59.000 to move

02:13:59.680 effectively

02:14:00.180 in the world

02:14:00.740 and so

02:14:01.420 I want to

02:14:02.160 make sure

02:14:02.520 that if I

02:14:03.260 offer a

02:14:04.740 story

02:14:05.340 or a fact

02:14:06.060 for that matter

02:14:06.740 I also say

02:14:07.460 well here

02:14:07.880 here's why

02:14:08.680 you need to

02:14:09.120 know this fact

02:14:09.820 it will actually

02:14:10.660 improve your

02:14:11.460 life

02:14:11.840 or it'll stop

02:14:12.940 you from

02:14:13.240 wandering into

02:14:13.820 a pit

02:14:14.180 which is

02:14:14.540 approximately

02:14:14.980 the same

02:14:15.440 thing

02:14:15.680 and then

02:14:16.540 it will also

02:14:17.480 knowing this

02:14:18.400 will also

02:14:18.820 make you

02:14:19.180 a more

02:14:19.420 effective actor

02:14:20.260 in the

02:14:20.580 social world

02:14:21.260 and that

02:14:21.780 will improve

02:14:22.300 the social

02:14:22.880 world

02:14:23.300 right

02:14:23.540 and hopefully

02:14:23.960 that will

02:14:24.340 improve

02:14:24.680 the environmental

02:14:25.500 world

02:14:25.920 etc

02:14:26.260 etc

02:14:26.640 and so

02:14:27.560 I would

02:14:27.880 say

02:14:28.160 to the degree

02:14:29.480 that those

02:14:30.220 who produce

02:14:30.840 sermons

02:14:31.260 are concerned

02:14:32.040 with producing

02:14:32.760 alterations

02:14:33.440 in behavior

02:14:34.160 which are

02:14:34.820 moral alterations

02:14:35.960 say

02:14:36.460 then I share

02:14:37.780 the same

02:14:38.220 territory

02:14:38.640 with them

02:14:39.080 but I

02:14:39.680 wouldn't say

02:14:40.160 that that's

02:14:40.600 something that

02:14:41.060 should be

02:14:41.420 only relegated

02:14:42.380 to the domain

02:14:43.020 of the sermon

02:14:43.560 because I

02:14:44.460 believe that

02:14:44.960 it is the

02:14:45.440 job of the

02:14:46.060 universities

02:14:46.500 for example

02:14:47.060 especially in

02:14:48.120 the damned

02:14:48.680 humanities

02:14:49.600 to ennoble

02:14:51.460 people

02:14:51.940 and to

02:14:52.400 enable them

02:14:53.400 to adopt

02:14:54.120 the mantle

02:14:54.720 of proper

02:14:55.440 citizenship

02:14:56.160 and that

02:14:57.180 we've forgotten

02:14:57.980 that

02:14:58.380 we've forgotten

02:14:59.340 that

02:14:59.620 or we're

02:15:00.160 avoiding it

02:15:00.900 or we're

02:15:01.300 refusing it

02:15:02.180 or something

02:15:02.600 like that

02:15:03.240 you know

02:15:04.080 and I think

02:15:04.780 we're using

02:15:05.280 the death

02:15:05.780 of God

02:15:06.220 as an excuse

02:15:06.960 so I think

02:15:09.100 that to the

02:15:09.720 degree that

02:15:10.200 I'm a preacher

02:15:11.000 I'm making

02:15:11.640 an error

02:15:12.260 you know

02:15:12.800 and also to

02:15:13.560 the degree

02:15:13.920 that I'm

02:15:14.520 politicized

02:15:15.600 I'm making

02:15:16.040 an error

02:15:16.420 I'm wandering

02:15:17.560 out of my

02:15:18.060 proper territory

02:15:18.780 when that's

02:15:19.480 the domain

02:15:19.920 that I'm in

02:15:20.540 but when I'm

02:15:21.560 attempting to

02:15:22.160 assemble

02:15:22.700 multiple layers

02:15:24.240 of facts

02:15:25.140 towards a

02:15:26.280 practical end

02:15:27.300 which is what

02:15:28.200 I'm trying to

02:15:28.720 do

02:15:28.880 and the end

02:15:29.320 is the

02:15:29.760 ennoblement

02:15:30.660 of the individual

02:15:31.500 right

02:15:31.820 that's my goal

02:15:32.720 then I'm in

02:15:34.300 my proper

02:15:34.800 domain

02:15:35.220 I'm going

02:15:35.800 to make

02:15:36.120 mistakes

02:15:36.660 you know

02:15:36.900 I'm going

02:15:37.140 to wander

02:15:37.480 out of my

02:15:38.000 territory

02:15:38.400 and I try

02:15:39.280 not to do

02:15:39.780 that

02:15:40.020 but you know

02:15:41.000 it's

02:15:41.460 well it's part

02:15:42.680 of being a

02:15:43.100 fool

02:15:43.340 you're going

02:15:43.800 to make

02:15:44.040 mistakes

02:15:44.560 so

02:15:45.160 yeah

02:15:46.160 thanks very

02:15:46.680 much

02:15:47.040 no problem

02:15:47.800 hi doc

02:15:54.220 thanks for

02:15:55.220 continuing to

02:15:55.840 do all the

02:15:56.340 cool stuff

02:15:57.280 everyone love

02:15:57.820 you

02:15:58.000 it's great

02:15:58.880 not everyone

02:15:59.880 well yeah

02:16:00.780 yeah yeah

02:16:01.260 that's a

02:16:01.660 generalization

02:16:02.260 there's lots

02:16:03.300 of people

02:16:03.680 that seem

02:16:04.100 not to

02:16:04.500 love me

02:16:05.000 yeah

02:16:05.460 and I

02:16:06.260 can't

02:16:06.740 blame them

02:16:07.240 really

02:16:07.620 anyway

02:16:09.220 yeah I'm

02:16:09.600 going to

02:16:09.720 lead into

02:16:10.000 a question

02:16:10.560 here

02:16:10.880 so in

02:16:11.360 your book

02:16:12.020 maps

02:16:12.360 of

02:16:12.540 the book

02:16:14.440 maps

02:16:14.780 of

02:16:14.960 meaning

02:16:15.380 you got

02:16:17.360 that quote

02:16:17.700 from Dostoevsky

02:16:19.140 about how

02:16:19.960 humankind

02:16:21.000 mankind

02:16:21.700 if you give

02:16:23.080 them all the

02:16:23.460 cakes in the

02:16:23.940 world

02:16:24.300 oh my god

02:16:25.860 yeah oh my god

02:16:27.600 is right man

02:16:28.220 that's one

02:16:28.700 killer quote

02:16:29.360 that's from

02:16:30.360 notes from

02:16:30.800 the underground

02:16:31.320 eh

02:16:31.600 everyone should

02:16:32.480 read that

02:16:33.040 because everyone's

02:16:33.760 underground

02:16:34.260 and it's a

02:16:35.340 great it's a

02:16:35.940 great little

02:16:36.540 journey through

02:16:37.140 that

02:16:37.480 yeah so it's

02:16:39.360 basically yeah if

02:16:39.920 you give if you

02:16:40.920 have the perfect

02:16:41.480 utopia I often

02:16:42.960 use basically if

02:16:44.240 you have the

02:16:44.660 most perfect

02:16:45.980 utopia

02:16:46.960 humans will find

02:16:49.100 a way to screw

02:16:49.840 it up and

02:16:50.360 they'll go out of

02:16:51.020 the way to do

02:16:51.440 it yeah because

02:16:52.360 we like we like

02:16:53.440 chaos and the

02:16:54.040 unknown you've

02:16:54.620 talked about this

02:16:55.460 yeah well that's

02:16:56.160 the thing is is

02:16:56.820 that we're heroic

02:16:57.640 adventurers right

02:16:58.700 we're not we're not

02:17:00.240 sybarites laying on

02:17:01.480 a beach although

02:17:02.160 when you get the

02:17:02.780 opportunity to do

02:17:03.680 that like make sure

02:17:04.560 you take it but

02:17:05.260 that's that's not

02:17:06.140 what that's not

02:17:06.900 that's not the

02:17:07.680 proper calling of

02:17:08.640 the human soul

02:17:09.400 right we're out

02:17:10.560 there to conquer

02:17:11.180 chaos and the

02:17:11.940 unknown and it's

02:17:13.220 in that we find

02:17:13.880 meaning and that's

02:17:14.800 better than the

02:17:15.380 utopia that's what

02:17:16.300 dostoevsky you know

02:17:17.660 god bless his soul

02:17:18.860 dostoevsky had that

02:17:20.280 he was such a genius

02:17:21.620 he had everything

02:17:22.440 that was wrong with

02:17:23.320 communism figured

02:17:24.400 out even before

02:17:25.660 it started amazing

02:17:27.600 really like if you

02:17:29.140 read the possessed

02:17:30.160 or the devils

02:17:31.160 which i would

02:17:31.680 highly recommend

02:17:32.360 although it's a

02:17:32.940 hard book to get

02:17:33.560 into it takes

02:17:34.160 about a hundred

02:17:34.640 pages to really

02:17:35.400 get get get

02:17:36.580 get moving

02:17:37.960 but dostoevsky

02:17:39.480 talks his main

02:17:40.720 character in that

02:17:41.440 novel is a person

02:17:42.780 who's again a very

02:17:44.540 powerful person

02:17:45.440 who's completely

02:17:46.100 possessed by what's

02:17:47.200 essentially the

02:17:47.800 communist ideology

02:17:48.700 and he's very

02:17:49.440 effective at moving

02:17:50.340 it forward and

02:17:51.440 dostoevsky lays out

02:17:52.600 brilliantly exactly

02:17:53.820 the catastrophic

02:17:54.520 consequences of that

02:17:55.560 both personally and

02:17:56.400 socially and he did

02:17:57.400 this like 30 years

02:17:58.340 before the russian

02:17:59.040 revolution it's just

02:18:00.160 it's uncanny i don't

02:18:02.140 know where the hell

02:18:02.940 that guy was from

02:18:03.960 must have been his

02:18:04.980 epilepsy you know so

02:18:06.840 yeah i'm glad i got

02:18:07.980 you all excited i'm

02:18:08.760 just gonna keep going

02:18:09.440 here basically i used

02:18:12.060 to use that um you

02:18:13.400 know to kind of

02:18:13.980 flate that a lot of

02:18:14.900 the comes from the

02:18:15.460 left wing this utopia

02:18:16.520 we're going towards

02:18:17.260 with the universal

02:18:19.040 income and there's

02:18:20.160 gonna be ai and

02:18:20.880 suddenly the whole

02:18:21.380 population is gonna

02:18:22.000 become insanely creative

02:18:23.400 and with no incentive

02:18:24.760 but it's not the

02:18:26.120 utopia is not there

02:18:27.420 it's not like this

02:18:28.040 thing that hasn't

02:18:28.660 happened yet we're in

02:18:29.580 it we're in it this

02:18:31.280 is the best thing ever

02:18:32.280 in like all of

02:18:33.140 humanity the western

02:18:34.440 civilization like oh

02:18:35.740 my god in a material

02:18:37.080 sense i mean oh it

02:18:39.580 just toilet paper

02:18:40.620 toilet paper just

02:18:41.460 happened anyway uh

02:18:43.420 that's so what i'm

02:18:45.060 trying to say is

02:18:46.180 seriously

02:18:46.940 so we have this

02:18:53.000 beautiful thing and

02:18:53.780 people are trying to

02:18:55.880 take it down at all

02:18:56.620 costs and and now we

02:18:58.120 go into the dark

02:18:58.760 phase of my into my

02:19:00.020 question here which is

02:19:01.040 and it actually goes

02:19:01.940 into charlottesville had

02:19:05.560 you know with that with

02:19:07.760 that with the with the

02:19:08.300 initial purpose of

02:19:09.940 protecting the statue was

02:19:13.020 a good thing i don't i'm

02:19:14.380 not i'm not i don't know

02:19:15.520 about confederacy except

02:19:16.940 for the big thing but

02:19:18.560 honestly it's uh it's a

02:19:20.860 slippery slippery slope

02:19:22.100 and the confused souls

02:19:24.100 who and the bad like

02:19:25.480 just darkened souls for

02:19:27.500 sure not good they

02:19:29.760 screwed it up big time

02:19:30.960 because the purpose

02:19:32.260 behind it is so

02:19:33.120 important because it's

02:19:34.640 going to be what

02:19:35.820 founding fathers next

02:19:36.840 anyone who ever

02:19:37.620 contributed anything to

02:19:38.940 western civilization as

02:19:39.980 we know it is already

02:19:41.060 being it's already

02:19:41.660 being done james madison

02:19:42.580 high school in the

02:19:44.500 states it's getting

02:19:45.080 renamed because some

02:19:46.540 girls some random one

02:19:47.740 student felt unsafe and

02:19:49.740 so yeah this is a serious

02:19:51.660 issue and i want to

02:19:52.320 like i feel like really

02:19:54.620 up against the wall now

02:19:55.860 because now they found

02:19:56.980 their nazis man the

02:19:58.180 nazis are flooding the

02:19:59.480 streets now so how do

02:20:01.080 we how do we possibly you

02:20:02.980 know kind of save our

02:20:04.340 cakes

02:20:04.720 you had to bring it up

02:20:15.420 didn't you

02:20:15.800 well having the right

02:20:22.240 degenerate into identity

02:20:23.720 politics does not seem to

02:20:25.040 be a positive solution so

02:20:26.860 one of the things i would

02:20:27.760 say is that like i

02:20:29.180 understand why the

02:20:31.600 identity politics that

02:20:32.760 has been practiced so

02:20:33.740 assiduously and so

02:20:34.920 devastatingly by the left

02:20:36.800 has been co-opted by the

02:20:39.220 right i understand that

02:20:40.760 but then here's what i

02:20:42.340 would say to the people

02:20:43.220 on the right who are

02:20:44.460 playing that game

02:20:45.260 if you play the game of

02:20:48.340 your enemies and you win

02:20:49.940 you win their game

02:20:51.820 you don't win

02:20:53.480 that's not victory

02:20:54.780 you just become the most

02:20:56.800 successful exponent of

02:20:58.040 their pathology

02:20:58.940 how is that a good thing

02:21:01.060 it's a bad thing

02:21:02.520 so what does that leave

02:21:05.240 people as all as an

02:21:06.580 alternative

02:21:07.020 well

02:21:08.040 i don't think that

02:21:10.640 the caucasians let's say

02:21:13.020 should revert to being

02:21:14.540 white

02:21:14.980 i think that's a bad

02:21:17.120 idea

02:21:17.560 it's a dangerous idea

02:21:19.320 and it's coming fast

02:21:21.040 and i don't like to see

02:21:22.740 that

02:21:23.080 i think the whole group

02:21:26.020 identity thing is

02:21:27.340 seriously pathological

02:21:29.220 i think we've made big

02:21:30.660 mistakes in canada

02:21:31.700 i understand why at

02:21:33.620 least to some degree in

02:21:34.560 that respect

02:21:35.520 and that large mistakes

02:21:37.180 are being made all over

02:21:38.080 the western world

02:21:38.840 where we're making

02:21:39.940 your group identity

02:21:41.540 the most important thing

02:21:43.580 about you

02:21:44.240 i think that's

02:21:45.860 reprehensible

02:21:46.780 i think it's

02:21:48.520 devastating

02:21:49.300 i think it's

02:21:50.480 genocidal in its

02:21:51.600 ultimate expression

02:21:52.400 i think it will bring

02:21:53.800 down our civilization

02:21:54.880 if we pursue it

02:21:56.140 we shouldn't be playing

02:21:58.740 that game

02:21:59.380 so what's the alternative

02:22:01.520 you know i've thought

02:22:02.700 for a long time

02:22:03.540 about a political career

02:22:04.780 really forever

02:22:06.000 since i was like 12

02:22:07.400 really for a long time

02:22:09.040 and i've always decided

02:22:10.920 against it

02:22:11.580 because it seemed to me

02:22:12.780 that the proper

02:22:13.640 level of analysis

02:22:15.340 with regards to the

02:22:16.760 solution of the problem

02:22:18.060 that we're facing

02:22:18.780 isn't political

02:22:19.580 and that's why i think

02:22:20.640 it's a mistake when

02:22:21.500 what i'm doing

02:22:22.420 gets politicized

02:22:23.700 either by me or others

02:22:24.720 i think that

02:22:26.140 the way that you

02:22:27.340 deal with this

02:22:27.940 is to put yourself

02:22:29.140 together

02:22:29.720 i really believe that

02:22:31.540 is that

02:22:31.920 because i think that

02:22:32.920 individual people

02:22:33.720 are far more powerful

02:22:34.700 they're certainly

02:22:35.180 far more evil

02:22:35.940 than they're willing

02:22:36.780 to consider

02:22:37.320 but that's also a sign

02:22:38.700 of their unbelievable

02:22:39.560 power

02:22:40.200 so

02:22:41.580 i think that what you

02:22:43.160 do is you

02:22:43.840 aim high

02:22:45.540 and put yourself

02:22:46.820 together

02:22:47.260 and stay the hell

02:22:48.440 away from the

02:22:49.360 ideologues

02:22:50.100 because they're hiding

02:22:51.740 they're hiding

02:22:52.640 behind a wall

02:22:53.400 they're not able

02:22:54.280 to come out

02:22:54.780 and fight

02:22:55.200 on their own

02:22:55.700 behalf

02:22:56.140 and so

02:22:57.720 the way forward

02:22:58.840 through the

02:22:59.220 ideological mess

02:23:00.220 and that's the

02:23:00.960 lesson of western

02:23:01.620 culture

02:23:02.020 is to place

02:23:03.340 the individual

02:23:04.000 at the place

02:23:05.120 of paramount

02:23:05.760 importance

02:23:06.240 and to make

02:23:07.020 the group

02:23:07.400 identity

02:23:07.920 emerge only

02:23:09.940 when necessary

02:23:10.760 and secondarily

02:23:12.200 if ever

02:23:13.220 and so

02:23:14.700 you can do that

02:23:15.440 you can do that

02:23:16.060 now

02:23:16.440 you can do that

02:23:17.040 tomorrow

02:23:17.440 like you can

02:23:18.060 put your life

02:23:18.540 together

02:23:18.860 and again

02:23:19.340 as i mentioned

02:23:20.180 to the other

02:23:20.960 young man

02:23:21.420 who asked the

02:23:21.940 question is

02:23:22.500 you won't hurt

02:23:23.720 anyone doing

02:23:24.360 that

02:23:24.660 right

02:23:25.460 you pick up

02:23:26.260 your goddamn

02:23:26.780 responsibility

02:23:27.580 sort yourself out

02:23:29.160 fix up your

02:23:29.960 family

02:23:30.420 right

02:23:31.040 and then you

02:23:31.900 can be a force

02:23:32.540 for good

02:23:32.900 in the culture

02:23:33.420 and if enough

02:23:34.180 people do that

02:23:34.840 the ideological

02:23:35.540 mess will just

02:23:36.520 evaporate

02:23:37.440 it'll just

02:23:37.940 disappear

02:23:38.380 i think that's

02:23:39.320 the way you

02:23:39.720 show people

02:23:40.240 the right path

02:23:40.900 forward too

02:23:41.660 is that you

02:23:42.780 say well look

02:23:43.440 we would like

02:23:44.680 it so much

02:23:45.980 if you could

02:23:46.380 thrive as an

02:23:47.220 individual

02:23:47.660 drop your

02:23:48.800 cult-like

02:23:49.600 affiliation

02:23:50.500 right

02:23:50.960 step out

02:23:51.760 of the

02:23:52.060 shadows

02:23:52.520 the

02:23:52.780 demonic

02:23:53.300 shadows

02:23:53.980 your

02:23:54.480 ideological

02:23:55.080 possession

02:23:55.720 and step

02:23:56.800 forward

02:23:57.240 as a fully

02:23:58.140 developed

02:23:58.540 person

02:23:58.940 into the

02:23:59.500 light

02:23:59.800 do it by

02:24:01.420 example

02:24:01.900 that's your

02:24:02.840 that's your

02:24:03.720 best bet

02:24:04.440 man

02:24:04.780 so that's

02:24:06.420 what it

02:24:06.620 looks like

02:24:06.960 to me

02:24:07.360 i'm going to

02:24:19.040 take one

02:24:19.500 more question

02:24:20.040 and then i'm

02:24:20.580 going to

02:24:20.960 there is a

02:24:21.640 young man

02:24:28.620 i'm going to

02:24:29.180 answer one

02:24:29.620 more question

02:24:30.260 and then i'm

02:24:30.760 going to let

02:24:31.080 you take

02:24:31.500 the mic

02:24:35.200 dr peterson

02:24:36.040 good evening

02:24:36.540 everybody

02:24:37.000 i also want

02:24:37.820 to thank you

02:24:38.440 first for

02:24:39.520 your lectures

02:24:40.280 that i've been

02:24:40.920 following on

02:24:41.520 youtube mainly

02:24:42.380 and to say

02:24:43.700 that they have

02:24:44.220 been well

02:24:45.260 life-changing

02:24:45.980 wouldn't be an

02:24:46.940 overstatement

02:24:47.840 great man

02:24:49.680 and i'm one of

02:24:50.780 the crazy people

02:24:51.580 increasing your

02:24:52.480 views on youtube

02:24:53.280 because i flew in

02:24:54.460 from belgium

02:24:55.200 last night to be

02:24:56.160 here

02:24:56.540 and it's like

02:25:03.600 3 a.m

02:25:04.500 for me right

02:25:05.280 now

02:25:05.600 and english

02:25:06.120 is not my

02:25:06.660 first language

02:25:07.360 so bear

02:25:08.760 with me

02:25:09.240 i would have

02:25:12.480 many burning

02:25:13.860 questions to

02:25:14.740 ask you

02:25:15.180 but i thought

02:25:15.720 it was fair

02:25:16.720 and necessary

02:25:17.280 to pick one

02:25:18.320 and it would

02:25:19.900 be this one

02:25:20.520 there are

02:25:20.980 concepts that

02:25:21.740 recur in your

02:25:22.720 lectures but

02:25:23.360 this one

02:25:23.900 you only mentioned

02:25:25.320 once in your

02:25:25.960 early videos

02:25:26.600 on blc-16

02:25:28.000 about self-esteem

02:25:30.800 you said you

02:25:31.380 don't believe in

02:25:31.860 the existence

02:25:32.400 of self-esteem

02:25:34.040 when you teach

02:25:34.820 children they're

02:25:35.440 all special

02:25:36.180 you think you

02:25:36.900 boost their

02:25:37.740 confidence

02:25:38.280 but the only

02:25:39.440 result is that

02:25:40.220 some get

02:25:40.820 narcissistic

02:25:41.720 the reason why

02:25:43.220 i'm interested

02:25:44.060 in that is

02:25:44.760 about standing

02:25:45.460 up for yourself

02:25:46.480 and it is

02:25:49.840 when i try

02:25:52.340 to you know

02:25:53.480 do it

02:25:55.060 i see

02:25:56.600 that

02:25:57.260 rational

02:25:59.380 arguments

02:26:00.260 faith in

02:26:01.000 rationality

02:26:01.820 doesn't get

02:26:02.740 the best

02:26:03.340 results

02:26:04.020 in negotiations

02:26:04.960 that's why

02:26:06.340 you learn

02:26:06.800 how to be

02:26:07.380 socialized

02:26:07.960 by playing

02:26:08.600 rough and

02:26:10.140 tumble

02:26:10.500 it's not

02:26:11.880 an intellectual

02:26:12.760 conversation

02:26:13.600 that gets

02:26:14.440 you socialized

02:26:15.280 so i'm also

02:26:16.520 reading that

02:26:17.100 book suggested

02:26:17.980 about by

02:26:19.040 steven hicks

02:26:20.120 explaining

02:26:20.820 post-modernism

02:26:21.680 because i

02:26:22.040 wasn't really

02:26:22.680 familiar and

02:26:23.460 i've been

02:26:23.740 listening to a

02:26:24.400 lot from you

02:26:24.920 i'm going to

02:26:24.940 talk to him

02:26:25.380 later this

02:26:25.900 week so that

02:26:26.500 might be fun

02:26:27.160 and i'm trying

02:26:28.540 to read with

02:26:29.120 fresh eyes

02:26:29.980 because i've

02:26:30.980 been indoctrinated

02:26:32.180 by you of

02:26:32.900 course i'm very

02:26:33.580 critical and

02:26:35.120 there's one more

02:26:36.140 point that i

02:26:37.180 have to agree

02:26:38.300 with the

02:26:40.140 post-modernist

02:26:41.040 and that is

02:26:41.660 the world seems

02:26:42.680 to me as i

02:26:43.560 observe it a

02:26:44.620 place where

02:26:45.640 powers are at

02:26:46.820 play it's not

02:26:48.360 rationality that

02:26:49.260 leads that so

02:26:50.720 when i'm in a

02:26:51.360 weak position and

02:26:52.580 i want to fight

02:26:53.380 back not to get

02:26:54.380 resentful i find

02:26:56.220 that it's not a

02:26:57.100 rational argument

02:26:58.020 that will get me

02:26:59.600 there there's

02:27:00.260 something else that

02:27:01.080 i don't do and

02:27:01.960 that i should be

02:27:02.580 doing and i don't

02:27:03.400 know what it is

02:27:04.260 so you see the

02:27:05.800 relation with

02:27:06.300 self-esteem seems

02:27:07.760 to me that people

02:27:08.380 who think of

02:27:09.100 themselves start

02:27:10.660 in a better

02:27:11.180 position in in

02:27:13.280 this game okay

02:27:14.200 so okay okay

02:27:15.400 great yeah all

02:27:16.600 right so there's a

02:27:17.200 lot in that

02:27:17.760 question so

02:27:18.340 the first thing

02:27:19.500 is is there's

02:27:20.720 a problem with

02:27:21.420 the measurement

02:27:21.980 of self-esteem

02:27:23.060 and that actually

02:27:24.140 matters because

02:27:24.820 self-esteem is a

02:27:25.700 psychological concept

02:27:26.860 a scientific

02:27:27.660 concept if you

02:27:28.520 like and you

02:27:29.520 have to get the

02:27:30.020 measurement right

02:27:30.660 and you can

02:27:31.520 predict self-esteem

02:27:32.420 almost perfectly

02:27:33.280 by measuring

02:27:33.880 someone's

02:27:34.360 extroversion

02:27:34.980 and subtracting

02:27:37.180 from that their

02:27:38.060 negative emotionality

02:27:39.140 or neuroticism

02:27:40.000 so it's actually

02:27:40.600 just a combination

02:27:41.480 of big five

02:27:42.120 traits and so

02:27:42.780 people who are

02:27:43.580 extroverted

02:27:44.220 who feel a lot

02:27:45.500 of positive emotion

02:27:46.280 and who are

02:27:47.160 and who don't

02:27:48.440 feel a lot of

02:27:49.080 negative emotion

02:27:49.820 score high on

02:27:51.100 scales of self-esteem

02:27:52.280 okay so

02:27:53.860 conceptually

02:27:55.480 it's a non-starter

02:27:57.340 because you're not

02:27:58.860 going to move

02:28:00.240 people's levels

02:28:01.260 of neuroticism

02:28:02.220 let's say

02:28:02.680 by trying to get

02:28:03.760 them to feel good

02:28:04.520 about themselves

02:28:05.220 okay now

02:28:06.580 having said that

02:28:07.800 that doesn't mean

02:28:08.940 that you shouldn't

02:28:10.320 encourage people

02:28:11.440 right now

02:28:12.420 there's this

02:28:14.000 psychologist named

02:28:15.260 Jerome Kagan

02:28:15.920 who's quite a

02:28:16.660 great psychologist

02:28:17.720 developmental psychologist

02:28:18.860 I think he's

02:28:20.060 an emeritus at

02:28:20.760 Harvard at the

02:28:21.520 at the moment

02:28:22.740 he studied

02:28:24.240 temperamentally

02:28:25.380 inhibited children

02:28:26.340 you can

02:28:27.600 so they're basically

02:28:28.580 kids who are

02:28:29.580 high in neuroticism

02:28:30.580 probably low in

02:28:31.420 extroversion

02:28:31.920 and he found

02:28:33.120 that if those

02:28:34.200 children

02:28:34.560 and you can

02:28:35.060 identify them

02:28:35.600 as early as

02:28:36.040 six months

02:28:36.540 right

02:28:36.780 very very

02:28:37.460 inculcated

02:28:38.260 in their temperament

02:28:39.000 he found that

02:28:41.200 if you encouraged

02:28:42.460 them in the world

02:28:43.400 you could shift

02:28:44.280 them into a more

02:28:45.420 stable personality

02:28:46.320 configuration

02:28:46.840 and what you

02:28:48.240 basically did was

02:28:49.200 when they were

02:28:49.780 manifesting signs

02:28:50.960 of distress

02:28:51.620 instead of

02:28:52.760 encouraging them

02:28:53.640 to withdraw

02:28:54.240 and retreat

02:28:55.160 which is what

02:28:56.080 they might be

02:28:56.760 attempting to do

02:28:57.640 you encourage them

02:28:59.300 to go out

02:28:59.900 and explore

02:29:00.500 so for example

02:29:01.220 if you have a

02:29:01.680 temperamentally

02:29:02.220 inhibited child

02:29:02.900 and you go to

02:29:03.360 a playground

02:29:03.840 and there's kids

02:29:05.000 out there

02:29:05.400 like if you have

02:29:06.060 an extroverted

02:29:06.580 emotionally stable

02:29:07.360 kid

02:29:07.680 three years old

02:29:09.300 as you put them

02:29:10.620 on the ground

02:29:11.280 their feet are

02:29:12.200 already moving

02:29:13.220 right

02:29:13.580 like a puppy

02:29:14.200 over water

02:29:14.980 and you let them

02:29:15.800 go and they just

02:29:16.300 run to the

02:29:16.960 to the kids

02:29:17.840 and they're there

02:29:18.660 and then you have

02:29:19.120 to drag them away

02:29:20.040 but if you have

02:29:20.740 a temperamentally

02:29:21.380 inhibited child

02:29:22.080 the child will

02:29:22.620 sort of stand

02:29:23.200 around your legs

02:29:23.940 and sort of

02:29:24.380 peek out

02:29:24.840 you know

02:29:25.660 and then what

02:29:26.360 you do is

02:29:27.140 wait it out

02:29:28.980 let them watch

02:29:30.260 encourage them

02:29:31.260 to move a little

02:29:31.840 bit forward

02:29:32.520 encourage them

02:29:33.380 to take their

02:29:34.040 steps out

02:29:34.640 into the unknown

02:29:35.400 and the strange

02:29:36.160 land

02:29:36.580 and

02:29:37.380 don't let

02:29:38.420 them withdraw

02:29:39.080 like you can do

02:29:39.860 it

02:29:40.000 they're slower

02:29:41.020 to warm up

02:29:41.540 they'll warm up

02:29:42.160 they'll habituate

02:29:43.020 and if you

02:29:43.820 continually expose

02:29:45.100 your inhibited child

02:29:46.300 to the things

02:29:48.120 that make them

02:29:48.760 anxious

02:29:49.220 in measured doses

02:29:50.460 then you can

02:29:51.060 transform their

02:29:51.860 psychophysiological

02:29:52.720 temperament

02:29:53.340 now you're probably

02:29:54.340 not going to

02:29:54.960 shift them

02:29:55.460 way the hell

02:29:56.020 out onto the

02:29:56.660 extroverted

02:29:57.280 emotionally stable

02:29:58.540 end

02:29:58.860 but you can

02:29:59.580 make a big

02:30:00.000 difference

02:30:00.360 that's very

02:30:01.240 different than

02:30:01.780 making them

02:30:02.360 feel good

02:30:02.940 about themselves

02:30:03.620 which is such

02:30:04.620 a

02:30:04.740 you need to curse

02:30:07.080 you need to curse

02:30:08.320 when you discuss

02:30:09.140 that concept

02:30:10.080 right

02:30:10.820 so

02:30:11.600 it isn't

02:30:12.820 improve their

02:30:13.660 self-esteem

02:30:14.380 it isn't how

02:30:15.000 you feel

02:30:15.620 about yourself

02:30:16.320 right

02:30:16.740 it's how you

02:30:17.620 act effectively

02:30:18.540 in the world

02:30:19.180 and how you're

02:30:19.720 trained to do

02:30:20.340 that

02:30:20.700 so

02:30:21.440 okay

02:30:21.980 now

02:30:22.320 then you were

02:30:23.100 talking about

02:30:23.600 negotiation

02:30:24.320 right

02:30:25.020 and you said

02:30:25.540 well don't

02:30:26.180 you said something

02:30:26.860 like don't people

02:30:27.540 who feel good

02:30:28.100 about themselves

02:30:28.740 aren't they able

02:30:29.680 to negotiate

02:30:30.280 better

02:30:30.760 and I know

02:30:32.280 that's a poor

02:30:32.820 paraphrase

02:30:33.440 excuse me

02:30:34.020 but

02:30:34.240 negotiation is

02:30:36.740 actually a

02:30:37.200 practical issue

02:30:38.060 to some degree

02:30:38.800 like the first

02:30:39.800 thing is that

02:30:40.300 you have to

02:30:40.720 figure out

02:30:41.120 what you want

02:30:41.880 because you were

02:30:42.740 saying well

02:30:43.080 it's not merely

02:30:43.600 rational

02:30:44.060 it's like yeah

02:30:44.640 yeah that's for

02:30:45.280 sure

02:30:45.460 you have to

02:30:46.200 bargain from

02:30:46.640 a position of

02:30:47.380 authority

02:30:48.180 let's say

02:30:48.600 not power

02:30:49.240 authority is a

02:30:50.660 better word

02:30:51.160 but you don't

02:30:52.040 have authority

02:30:52.660 unless you know

02:30:53.300 what you're

02:30:53.560 talking about

02:30:53.980 and unless

02:30:54.500 you can bring

02:30:55.220 some

02:30:56.120 unless you can

02:30:57.520 bring some

02:30:58.240 let's say

02:30:59.000 force

02:30:59.480 it's not

02:30:59.880 that's not

02:31:00.240 the right

02:31:00.560 word

02:31:00.900 you can't

02:31:03.580 negotiate

02:31:03.980 with anyone

02:31:04.880 unless you

02:31:05.400 can say

02:31:05.720 no

02:31:06.040 and you

02:31:07.660 can't say

02:31:08.060 no

02:31:08.240 unless you've

02:31:08.700 set yourself

02:31:09.160 up with

02:31:09.520 alternatives

02:31:10.000 so when you

02:31:11.280 go to your

02:31:11.740 boss and you

02:31:12.280 negotiate for

02:31:12.960 a raise

02:31:13.480 you need to

02:31:14.480 have this

02:31:14.760 sort of CV

02:31:15.320 that enables

02:31:15.920 you to go

02:31:16.280 find another

02:31:16.760 job

02:31:17.180 and you

02:31:17.660 have to

02:31:17.960 have your

02:31:18.240 CV

02:31:18.520 prepared

02:31:18.980 and you

02:31:19.560 have to

02:31:19.900 have looked

02:31:20.240 for another

02:31:20.640 job

02:31:20.960 and you

02:31:21.560 have to

02:31:21.920 be able

02:31:22.200 to get

02:31:22.560 one

02:31:22.900 because

02:31:23.480 then you

02:31:23.780 can go

02:31:24.080 in there

02:31:24.380 and say

02:31:24.800 I'm not

02:31:26.440 as productive

02:31:26.960 as I

02:31:27.300 could be

02:31:27.780 at my

02:31:28.400 current level

02:31:28.940 of remuneration

02:31:29.900 it's not

02:31:30.740 reflective of

02:31:31.400 what I'm

02:31:31.780 able to

02:31:32.140 do

02:31:32.400 and I

02:31:33.520 want this

02:31:34.040 and this

02:31:34.320 is what

02:31:34.560 will happen

02:31:35.040 if you

02:31:35.360 give me

02:31:35.660 this

02:31:35.900 this will

02:31:36.200 be the

02:31:36.420 good

02:31:36.540 things

02:31:36.760 that will

02:31:36.960 happen

02:31:37.260 and what

02:31:38.200 do you

02:31:38.360 think of

02:31:38.680 that

02:31:38.940 and the

02:31:39.740 person

02:31:40.040 is going

02:31:40.920 to know

02:31:41.380 even by

02:31:42.160 the way

02:31:42.520 that you

02:31:42.900 hold

02:31:43.280 yourself

02:31:43.680 while you're

02:31:44.020 having the

02:31:44.360 discussion

02:31:44.840 whether or

02:31:45.640 not you're

02:31:46.000 someone with

02:31:46.460 options

02:31:46.920 and you

02:31:47.720 can't fake

02:31:48.280 that

02:31:48.660 well you

02:31:49.640 can

02:31:49.980 but it's

02:31:50.380 not helpful

02:31:50.920 like it

02:31:51.360 just doesn't

02:31:52.100 work for

02:31:52.460 very many

02:31:52.880 iterations

02:31:53.300 you have

02:31:54.220 to

02:31:54.440 it's

02:31:55.040 it's

02:31:55.300 not

02:31:55.740 rational

02:31:56.200 you're

02:31:56.500 preparing

02:31:56.880 yourself

02:31:57.320 for

02:31:57.560 battle

02:31:58.020 that's

02:31:58.680 what

02:31:58.780 you're

02:31:58.920 doing

02:31:59.220 and you

02:32:00.020 can't

02:32:00.300 be

02:32:00.440 weak

02:32:00.760 when you

02:32:01.060 prepare

02:32:01.380 yourself

02:32:02.020 for

02:32:02.300 battle

02:32:02.620 because

02:32:03.300 if the

02:32:03.600 person

02:32:03.860 says

02:32:04.140 no

02:32:04.680 I'm not

02:32:06.000 giving you

02:32:06.400 a raise

02:32:06.800 which is

02:32:07.140 exactly

02:32:07.460 what they

02:32:07.780 should

02:32:07.960 say

02:32:08.160 because

02:32:08.420 what are

02:32:08.640 they

02:32:08.740 going

02:32:08.860 to

02:32:08.940 do

02:32:09.080 just

02:32:09.300 like

02:32:09.540 sprinkle

02:32:09.860 the

02:32:10.040 money

02:32:10.200 around

02:32:10.520 you

02:32:11.280 need

02:32:11.520 to

02:32:11.620 be

02:32:11.720 able

02:32:11.800 to

02:32:11.920 say

02:32:12.140 okay

02:32:12.840 then

02:32:13.200 there

02:32:13.700 will

02:32:13.960 be

02:32:14.180 consequences

02:32:14.960 that

02:32:15.680 you

02:32:15.900 don't

02:32:16.280 like

02:32:16.680 and

02:32:17.560 that's

02:32:17.760 what

02:32:17.880 it

02:32:18.000 means

02:32:18.240 to

02:32:18.400 say

02:32:18.560 no

02:32:18.740 to

02:32:18.900 someone

02:32:19.220 no

02:32:19.760 means

02:32:20.160 if

02:32:20.780 you

02:32:20.920 continue

02:32:21.280 to

02:32:21.500 push

02:32:21.740 this

02:32:22.080 things

02:32:22.660 will

02:32:22.860 happen

02:32:23.180 that

02:32:23.360 you

02:32:23.480 don't

02:32:23.760 like

02:32:24.060 now

02:32:24.460 in

02:32:24.560 that

02:32:24.740 case

02:32:25.000 it'll

02:32:25.160 be

02:32:25.320 all

02:32:25.600 depart

02:32:26.020 and

02:32:26.260 take

02:32:26.460 my

02:32:26.660 talents

02:32:26.960 with

02:32:27.240 me

02:32:27.480 and

02:32:27.960 if

02:32:28.080 they

02:32:28.260 don't

02:32:28.500 care

02:32:28.760 well

02:32:28.960 then

02:32:29.120 you're

02:32:29.280 in

02:32:29.380 the

02:32:29.480 wrong

02:32:29.640 business

02:32:29.960 or

02:32:30.140 you

02:32:30.280 don't

02:32:30.420 have

02:32:30.580 any

02:32:30.740 talents

02:32:31.080 to

02:32:31.260 begin

02:32:31.560 with

02:32:31.840 right

02:32:32.080 which

02:32:32.560 is

02:32:32.740 so

02:32:33.340 in

02:32:34.260 order

02:32:34.660 to

02:32:34.840 negotiate

02:32:35.400 properly

02:32:36.020 and

02:32:36.320 this

02:32:36.800 is

02:32:36.920 more

02:32:37.060 difficult

02:32:37.380 for

02:32:37.600 people

02:32:37.860 who

02:32:38.000 are

02:32:38.100 agreeable

02:32:48.560 on

02:32:48.880 and

02:32:49.320 that

02:32:49.440 means

02:32:49.640 you

02:32:49.760 have

02:32:49.940 to

02:32:50.100 open

02:32:50.480 up

02:32:51.660 your

02:32:51.800 space

02:32:52.100 of

02:32:52.240 available

02:32:52.580 options

02:32:53.080 because

02:32:53.620 otherwise

02:32:53.960 the

02:32:55.120 person

02:32:55.320 says

02:32:55.540 no

02:32:55.780 and

02:32:55.960 that's

02:32:57.060 it

02:32:57.200 you're

02:32:57.820 done

02:32:58.020 well

02:32:58.860 you'll

02:32:59.140 lose

02:32:59.360 then

02:32:59.600 it's

02:33:00.660 as

02:33:00.960 straightforward

02:33:01.300 as

02:33:01.540 that

02:33:01.840 now

02:33:02.760 with

02:33:04.020 regards

02:33:04.360 to

02:33:04.500 the

02:33:04.640 self

02:33:04.840 esteem

02:33:05.200 part

02:33:05.480 is

02:33:05.640 practice

02:33:06.460 on

02:33:06.760 small

02:33:07.100 things

02:33:07.540 because

02:33:08.260 you

02:33:08.360 build

02:33:08.580 the

02:33:08.720 skills

02:33:09.060 forget

02:33:09.340 about

02:33:09.580 the

02:33:09.740 self

02:33:09.960 esteem

02:33:10.240 it

02:33:10.340 isn't

02:33:10.480 about

02:33:10.700 being

02:33:11.020 confident

02:33:11.520 or

02:33:11.720 feeling

02:33:11.980 confident

02:33:12.440 or

02:33:12.620 any

02:33:12.740 of

02:33:12.860 that

02:33:13.040 it's

02:33:13.460 about

02:33:13.620 knowing

02:33:13.960 bloody

02:33:14.280 well

02:33:14.500 how

02:33:14.640 to
