I am now a children s author, and my book went on sale yesterday, and it s already making some people very upset. Also, Joe Biden gives a press conference about the dreaded super mega turbo-Omicron variant, and Lauren Boebert and Ilhan Omar attempt to patch up their differences over a phone call. Chris Cuomo finds himself in another scandal involving his brother, and the trial of Kim Potter begins. Most people on both the left and right seem to think she deserves jail time. I disagree. And we ll take a look at a gender studies master s thesis.
00:01:54.280Well, first we saved Abuela, and then we saved Virginia, and now we are saving the children's book genre.
00:02:01.160As any parent who has ventured into the children's section at Barnes & Noble knows, the category has become totally flooded by left-wing propaganda.
00:02:08.460Every other title on the shelf is like Anti-Racist Baby, or I Am Jazz, or Jacob's New Dress, or Charlie the Unicorn Has Two Mommies and Three Daddies, or whatever.
00:02:19.100A good portion of this agitprop has a racial message, like Anti-Racist Baby, but most of it is focused on gender and identity.
00:02:26.980The first and primary goal of the indoctrinators is to induct children into the religion of gender ideology.
00:05:42.980And one day he pretends to be a walrus, as you can see on the cover there.
00:05:46.080He even has wood spoons in his mouth like tusks and socks on his hands like fins.
00:05:52.520But unfortunately, his mommy is the confused and impressionable sort.
00:05:56.940And she learns from the Internet that if your child identifies as something, then he must actually be that thing.
00:06:03.840Johnny's mommy thus spends the majority of the story trying to raise her child according to his walrus self-identity.
00:06:10.860She does her best to, you know, give her trans walrus son the sort of walrus life that she thinks he wants and needs.
00:06:18.540And at one point, at the darkest point in the novel, which, yes, I am calling it a novel, even if the pages are made of cardboard,
00:06:25.380she brings him to a purple-haired doctor who recommends that he take medication and undergo surgical procedures to complete his walrus transition.
00:10:40.500But the issue is what precisely they are being indoctrinated into.
00:10:45.000So I am indoctrinating kids into reality, into truth, into common sense, into a sense of the world that is grounded in truth.
00:11:00.300That's exactly the sort of indoctrination we ought to be doing.
00:11:03.260Finally, my critics will say that I am not a real children's author, that this is just a stunt or a gag, that my name does not belong in the pantheon of great children's authors alongside Seuss and Dahl and Silverstein.
00:11:17.800That is one criticism I cannot agree with or abide.
00:11:21.080This is my chosen identity now, and I have the cardigan to prove it.
00:11:25.100Johnny the Walrus is a legitimate children's book, and what's more, it is a work of literature.
00:11:29.180And some would say, some would say that it's perhaps even the finest American novel ever written.
00:12:32.760Well, thankfully, I have, again, another opportunity to talk about my favorite subject, which is refinancing mortgages, okay?
00:12:46.380This is the realm that I kind of live in.
00:12:48.880And if you are living in a home right now, did you know that it can cost you less?
00:12:55.260Okay, you're paying more than you have to pay.
00:12:57.140You can lower your payment and save thousands long-term.
00:12:59.900You just have to refinance to one of these incredibly low mortgage rates.
00:13:03.360And you should do it now before they're gone.
00:13:04.720These rates are expected to rise in the new year.
00:13:06.640You cannot afford to miss out on this money-saving opportunity, especially with how expensive everything is these days.
00:13:11.460Here's a chance to save some money every single month.
00:13:13.720Just takes a 10-minute call to American Financing, America's Home for Home Loans.
00:13:16.920You'll work with a salary-based mortgage consultant, someone who will guide you through custom loan options that can save you up to $1,000 a month.
00:13:24.580That's right, $1,000 a month is what you could be saving.
00:13:26.960You don't have to reset your loan to get these kinds of savings.
00:13:29.700You can choose any term 10 years and over because you shouldn't pay interest for years that you don't need.
00:13:43.160You know, I was saying yesterday about talking about my Thanksgiving break and how my wife was fat-shaming me and body-shaming me on the Internet.
00:13:54.460There is something else that I was just thinking about.
00:13:56.840I feel kind of bad because before, you know, I think it was on Thanksgiving Day before dinner, but, you know, we were sitting in the living room and my mom told me that she couldn't, she was having trouble getting her VCR to work.
00:14:13.780So she was telling me that she needed help with her VCR and she wanted to see if I could figure it out.
00:14:19.680And the problem is that, and she knows this, okay?
00:14:42.880So she asked me to help fix the VCR and I said, you know, unfortunately I would, but it's the year 2021 and I left my time machine at home.
00:14:49.680And then I said I would, but, uh, and, you know, and afterwards maybe I could help fix her printing press.
00:14:54.340Maybe I could take a stab at repairing her butter churn.
00:14:56.960And I had this whole routine about the VCR and then she just gave up asking and I, and I, and I never fixed it.
00:15:02.600So she's at home now, um, with a, with a broken VCR.
00:15:42.300The very day the World Health Organization identified the new variant, I took immediate steps to restrict travel from countries in Southern Africa.
00:15:51.560But while we have that travel restrictions can slow the speed of Omicron, it cannot prevent it.
00:16:11.700You have to get the, get the booster if you're, the sooner or later we're going to see cases of this new variant here in the United States.
00:16:18.680We'll have to face this new threat just so we face those that come before it.
00:16:22.740This variant is a cause for concern, not a cause for panic.
00:16:27.720We have the best vaccine in the world, the best medicines, the best scientists, and we're learning more every single day.
00:16:35.260And we'll fight this variant with scientific and, and knowledgeable actions and speed, not chaos and confusion.
00:16:45.000In the event, hopefully unlikely, that updated vaccinations or boosters are needed to respond to this new variant,
00:16:52.740we will accelerate their development and deployment with every available tool.
00:16:58.600I want to reiterate, Dr. Fauci believes.
00:17:48.640And there are, there are people, of course, as we know, that have been, uh, in a, in a, literally a perpetual state of panic for, for a year and a half, almost two, two years now.
00:18:03.340When you see someone walking down the street with a mask on or, and I've, I've saw it again the other day, not here in Nashville, but we were traveling.
00:19:27.020So according to everything we know, all the information we have, we played the clip for you yesterday of the doctor who first alerted people to this variant.
00:19:37.520And she's the one saying it's nothing to panic about, panic about.
00:19:40.480It's a, it's, these are very mild symptoms.
00:19:50.580Uh, that's, if the president is going to say anything about Omnicorn, that's all he really needs to say.
00:19:58.820Speaking of being in a perpetual state of panic, we know in New Zealand, both in Australia and New Zealand, if there's even one case of COVID, whether it's Omnicorn or anything else, they shut everything down.
00:20:11.940And New Zealand has been in a shutdown for who knows how long.
00:20:15.140They're now starting to open things up a little bit.
00:20:17.120And the prime minister of New Zealand gave her own press, press conference yesterday where she, um, finally gave, uh, the citizens of her country permission to go into their friends' homes and even if they want, uh, use the bathroom.
00:20:31.460This is a great privilege that this benevolent and generous woman has bestowed upon her citizens.
00:20:38.940And importantly, because I know this is a question many Aucklanders have, you can now see family and friends again in their homes and use the bathroom inside luxury.
00:20:57.800Now, there's nothing funny about it at all.
00:20:59.140And politicians should be terrified to speak to their citizens this way.
00:21:09.700The whole idea of a, of a, of a politician standing in front of a camera and giving you permission to go to your friend's house and use the bathroom.
00:21:21.300I would say treating you like a child, but that's, that's something, it's something even worse than that because my children don't ask, my own children don't ask for permission to go to the bathroom.
00:21:36.320I don't have to ask for permission for that.
00:21:38.200So, you are being more infantilized than a child.
00:21:47.560And politicians should be terrified doing that.
00:21:50.520They should be terrified to speak to their citizens that way.
00:22:23.900A little bit of an update about a story we talked about yesterday in the Daily Cancellation.
00:22:27.460Representatives Ilhan Omar and Lauren Boebert clashed in what we both described as a tense phone call on Monday.
00:22:33.880After video surfaced of the far-right lawmaker, according to The Hill, using that qualification, making Islamophobic remarks about her colleague.
00:22:44.780The two lawmakers issued separate statements after the phone call, making clear that neither found the conversation to be helpful in settling their differences.
00:22:51.540This is from, this is the statement we'll play Lauren Boebert talking about the phone call.
00:22:55.080But first, here is Ilhan Omar, released her own statement about this phone call.
00:23:13.480It's a good hint that someone is not gracious, is if they have described what they are doing as gracious.
00:23:18.720Today I graciously accepted a phone call from Representative Lauren Boebert in the hope of receiving a direct apology for falsely claiming that she met me in an elevator suggesting I was a terrorist and for a history of anti-Muslim hate.
00:23:31.100Instead of apologizing for her Islamophobic comments and fabricated lies, Representative Boebert refused to publicly acknowledge her hurtful and dangerous comments.
00:23:40.940She instead doubled down on her rhetoric and I decided to end the unproductive call.
00:23:45.100I believe in engaging with those we disagree with respectfully, but not when that disagreement is rooted in outright bigotry and hate.
00:23:52.080Well, we also know it's not gracious because you said you received the phone call because you wanted an apology.
00:24:03.520I graciously accepted a phone call in the hopes that the other person would bow before me and grovel and apologize.
00:24:12.820I graciously provided them the opportunity in the platform to grovel before my feet.
00:24:21.560And this is apparently, and both sides say that this is, you know, they have their own version of it, but it ended with Ilhan Omar hanging up and it didn't go well.
00:24:32.200Like I said, we talked about this in the Daily Cancellation and who was I canceling?
00:24:37.100I was canceling Lauren Boebert and not for the joke that she made.
00:24:40.600She made a joke at some kind of event in her district.
00:24:43.260She made a joke about Ilhan Omar saying that she was worried being in an elevator with Omar, but then she realized that Omar didn't have a backpack on.
00:24:53.180And it's actually kind of a funny joke.
00:24:54.620And as I said, it's a joke that Ilhan Omar totally deserves and brings on herself, not because she's Muslim, but because she openly sympathizes with terrorists.
00:25:05.900And she laughs about terrorist attacks and she's dismissive of 9-11, the worst terrorist attack on American soil in our nation's history.
00:25:15.120Famously, she described it as some people did something.
00:25:19.340Just like we could say with Lauren Boebert, some woman told some joke.
00:25:27.440So because that's her attitude towards terrorism and she's openly sympathetic of terrorists, that's why she brings those jokes on herself.
00:25:36.880And even if she wasn't Muslim, the jokes would still work.
00:26:38.600The problem is that, and the reason she got canceled yesterday, is that Boebert did issue a public apology.
00:26:44.700She tweeted out a statement apologizing.
00:26:47.000And even worse, she apologized to the Muslim community, which only confirms this idea that this comment was made as some kind of anti-Muslim comment, when it wasn't.
00:27:03.220This was a specific joke about Ilhan Omar specifically because of her specific actions and words.
00:27:09.280So by apologizing and giving the outrage mob what it wants, there's no winning now.
00:28:13.740And if she got that apology, she'd ask for another one.
00:28:16.480So here is Boebert talking about this and I think really illustrating why you put yourself in an unwinnable, a lose-lose situation when you start apologizing.
00:28:30.840Hey everyone, this is Lauren with a quick update on a phone call I had today with squad member Ilhan Omar.
00:28:37.840I had reached out to her Friday and three days later I was able to connect with her on the phone because I wanted to let her know directly that I had reflected on my previous remarks.
00:28:48.060Now, as a strong Christian woman who values faith deeply, I never want anything I say to offend someone's religion.
00:28:58.580Even after I put out a public statement to that effect, she said that she still wanted a public apology because what I had done wasn't good enough.
00:29:06.520So I reiterated to her what I had just said.
00:29:11.720So I told Ilhan Omar that she should make a public apology to the American people for her anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-police rhetoric.
00:29:21.680She continued to press and I continued to press back.
00:29:24.940And then Representative Omar hung up on me.
00:29:28.460Rejecting an apology and hanging up on someone is part of cancel culture 101 and a pillar of the Democrat Party.
00:29:35.220Make no mistake, I will continue to fearlessly put America first, never sympathizing with terrorists.
00:29:45.180I'm sorry, it's kind of embarrassing now for Boebert.
00:31:46.120You didn't go off, climb a mountain or something, talk to some guru up on a mountain about the meaning of life and come back with your deep reflections.
00:32:53.500I'm saying reflect ahead of time about what the reaction is going to be and how you are going to respond when that inevitable reaction happens.
00:34:50.960Next, here's another PR crisis from CNBC.
00:34:53.900It says, CNN host Chris Cuomo used his sources in the media world to seek information on women who accused his brother, Andrew Cuomo,
00:35:00.340then the governor of New York, of sexual harassment, according to documents released Monday by the New York Attorney General's office.
00:35:07.540While Chris Cuomo has previously acknowledged advising his brother and his team on the response to the scandals,
00:35:12.420the records show that his role in helping the then governor was much larger and more intimate than previously known.
00:35:17.440So Chris Cuomo was actively in touch with Melissa DeRosa, who was the then governor's top aide about incoming media reports that detailed alleged sexual harassment by Andrew Cuomo.
00:35:27.820He also lobbied to help the governor's office as it sought to weather the storm, and he dictated statements for the then governor to use.
00:35:35.600Apparently, he tweeted to DeRosa in one message, or rather texted her, please help, please let me help with the prep.
00:35:44.840And then another point, in reference to Anna Rutsch, who accused Cuomo of making an unwanted advance, he said,
00:35:58.880Okay, so he's using his sources to find out information about these women, he's helped him to craft statements, he's doing all of this,
00:36:05.620and he's doing all of this while he's ostensibly, I don't know what he even considers himself a journalist, can hardly say it without laughing.
00:37:03.220I'm just saying that, you know, helping out a family member, even by potentially unethical means, I'm not saying it's the objectively morally correct path.
00:37:18.220You know, I understand when someone pulls strings to help their brother out, help their sister out.
00:37:27.100If it were me, you know, if my brother was caught up in some kind of thing, and there was something I could do behind the scenes to help him out, I'd probably do it.
00:37:38.360Doesn't make it right, but, you know, I'm a firm believer in putting family first.
00:37:43.740So I guess my point is, of all the reasons to dislike Cuomo, I would put this near the bottom of the list.
00:37:52.200So it's very similar to his brother, who was getting all the grief and all the flack for the sexual harassment claims.
00:38:00.420Meanwhile, he's got this other issue of where he killed elderly people.
00:38:03.840And so I'm not going to defend him on the sexual harassment claims, but what I am going to say is, really, we should be focusing on this thing over here, which is much, much worse.
00:38:14.120And with Chris Cuomo, he doesn't have anything quite as bad as murdering elderly people.
00:38:20.480I mean, most people have never done that, but he does have sins, I think, that are worse than, you know, trying to help his brother out.
00:38:26.800Okay, next, three trials are starting this week.
00:38:45.320She meant to reach for her taser, but she pulled her gun instead.
00:38:48.320Just to give you an idea of how this trial is being covered and to kind of review some of the facts of the case, here's the local NBC affiliate talking about, and this is talking about the case and specifically Dante Wright's family, who had a press conference yesterday, and what they're saying about this.
00:39:07.220One day before jury selection begins in the manslaughter trial of Kim Potter.
00:39:11.000Dozens of community leaders and families of those killed at the hands of law enforcement stood in solidarity with Dante Wright's mother, Katie.
00:39:21.680Back on April 11th, Wright, a 20-year-old black man was pulled over by Brooklyn Center police officers due to expired tags.
00:39:29.340Officer Kim Potter pulled out her gun and shot Wright once in the chest as seen in body camera footage.
00:39:35.080Potter later said she meant to pull out her taser instead of her gun.
00:39:38.520Potter now faces first- and second-degree manslaughter charges.
00:39:42.580Defense attorneys argue the shooting was an accident.
00:39:45.640Dante Wright was a student of mine at Edison High School.
00:39:49.260George Floyd's girlfriend, Courtney Ross, recalled the day she first heard of Wright's death.
00:39:53.300By the time I got home, I found out that that man, that young man, was Dante Wright.
00:40:00.300Mind you, Dante's murder took place during the international trial of my man, George Floyd.
00:40:11.040Okay, so there's the trial of Dante Wright and what his family is saying.
00:40:18.500And we get the picture, as always, the necessary picture of Dante Wright sitting there holding a child, looking very, very innocent.
00:40:29.920What we should remember is that Dante Wright, the way the media reports it, is that Dante Wright was stopped for a traffic violation.
00:40:39.980And then I think originally the story, it was something, and it's always bogus.
00:40:44.520Almost all the details you hear about these high-profile police shootings, the initial details are almost always completely bogus.
00:40:52.460Not even based on reality, but totally bogus.
00:40:55.120So I think originally we heard something about he was pulled over for an air freshener.
00:40:59.540So the original story was that he was not only pulled over for it, but shot and executed for having an air freshener in his car.
00:41:06.040That was the story that made its, as we know, the saying, you know, the lie mixed all the way around the world before the truth can get its pants on.
00:41:31.820He was pulled over for a traffic violation, but then they discovered that he had an open warrant for his arrest.
00:41:40.400And so that's why they tried to arrest him.
00:41:42.420Not for a traffic violation, but because he had an open warrant for his arrest.
00:41:46.720And that's what you do with someone when they have an open warrant for their arrest.
00:41:48.940Why did he have an open warrant for his arrest?
00:41:51.500Well, he had it in connection with an incident where he allegedly pointed a gun at a woman and robbed her, attempted to rob her.
00:42:01.460He also choked her and, according to the victim, stuck his hand down her shirt looking for a wad of cash, which is sexual assault, of course.
00:42:10.000So he sexually assaulted a woman, pointed a gun at her, and tried to rob her.
00:44:03.700I put this in a similar in a similar category to something like a medical error.
00:44:07.420You know, a mistake that that now there can be medical errors that are made.
00:44:12.360There can be that are really malpractice or a doctor or surgeon is being reckless.
00:44:17.900And if that happens, then you have to litigate it.
00:44:21.680But there are also hundreds of people or more who die every year, you know, in surgeries and that sort of thing from medical errors that were nothing reckless has happened.
00:44:30.540And it's just that this is a life or death situation.
00:44:39.940But it doesn't mean you put someone in prison for it.
00:44:41.340So the point is, when you are a wanted felon, an alleged armed robber, and the police are trying to bring you in, and they're trying to use peaceful means to do it, and you start fighting them physically.
00:44:59.460If a mistake happens in the process of that occurring, where you are physically fighting the cops as a wanted person, a violent felon, if a mistake happened, an error happens, I put that on you.
00:46:33.580If you head to my swag shack, you'll find, and we'll show you this on the screen, but you'll find all of the great merch that I've already shown you,
00:46:40.860as well as a whole new section, a selection of Johnny the Walrus merchandise, such as a Johnny the Walrus shirt.
00:46:47.300There's a sticker here with a protester with a sign that says, he, him, Walrux, which is the preferred Walrus pronouns.
00:46:55.940Is this sort of just shameless, capitalistic exploitation in a way with the merchandise?
00:49:44.180And in fact, you do agree with me on that, even if you claim that you don't.
00:49:48.680As I've pointed out, you know, if you see a dead person on the side of the road, you're going to react very differently than if you see a dead squirrel.
00:51:43.600Well, first of all, I feel like I have to ban you from the show for challenging me, but then being so nice and polite about it, which means I don't get to be angry in response.
00:51:55.700As far as your question, yeah, I don't, it's just like what I said about indoctrination.
00:52:02.240And I understand where the confusion comes from.
00:52:04.840Because a lot of people on the right will say things like, and it's just kind of an intellectual laziness or they're being lazy in the way they speak.
00:52:14.200They'll say things like, well, we're against indoctrination of kids and all that kind of thing.
00:52:20.360No, it's not that, the problem is not that kids are being indoctrinated.
00:52:23.880It's what they're being indoctrinated into.
00:52:25.480And when it comes to creating culture, I don't have a problem with the idea of creating culture.
00:52:52.020It's like the absence, it's a vacuum, it's a void, it's the absence of culture.
00:52:58.760And so what I think we need to do on the right is create culture, real culture, a good culture.
00:53:02.860An edifying culture, a culture that directs people towards fulfillment and their own well-being and the common good, that sort of thing.
00:53:14.320So hopefully that clears it up, although you're still banned from the show.
00:53:17.560Well, I'm not sure if I mentioned it yet, but I do have a kid's book out.
00:53:21.780And this is the part where we do the DW promo, and it just so happens to be my book that we're promoting.
00:53:26.420So once again, I get to tell you about Johnny the Walrus, which is on sale right now at johnnythewalrus.com.
00:53:32.160I will tell you that I've already seen the action has started on Twitter of the left calling for Amazon to ban this book.
00:53:39.960And I don't have a lot of confidence that it won't get banned, even though it's a lovely and a wonderful book with, I think, a great message about this young boy who has this identity of being a trans walrus foisted upon him by his confused mother.
00:53:54.320But at the end, they see the light, so it's a happy ending.
00:53:57.500But there's a good chance that things are going to get banned, and that's a serious issue.
00:54:01.780So go and buy the book right now, johnnythewalrus.com.
00:54:05.420If we get it all the way to the top of the charts, it makes it harder for them to ban it.
00:54:09.180And if they do, it's more visible when they do, which it ought to be.
00:54:20.000For our cancellation today, we turn our attention to a gender studies master's thesis composed by a student at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
00:54:28.080Jonathan Kaye is an editor at Quillette, and he first brought attention to this on his Twitter page.
00:54:33.080The document had been available on the university's website, but has since been put under embargo, whatever that's supposed to mean.
00:54:37.880What it actually means is that the university is embarrassed that the public took note of this, and so they took it out of the public viewing for that reason.
00:54:44.940All I really need to do is read the first part of the introduction to this thesis.
00:54:49.720No other commentary is necessary, though I will offer some anyway.
00:54:59.780And this is all totally real, by the way, I assure you.
00:55:02.900As a white first-generation college graduate who attended a mid-sized private university, my identities and experiences inspired this study.
00:55:11.820My whiteness offers a level of inherent violence to this study because of the history of privilege and structural and overt acts of harm my ancestors have contributed to society.
00:55:19.860This echoes my experience in identifying as an anti-racist racist who, as a white person, spelled with an X instead of an O, a persixin, who, as a white persixin, is inherently racist, but applies and is accountable to anti-racism in my life through activist, educator, and researcher capacities.
00:55:38.600White supremacy is frequently misunderstood as only pertaining to overt or explicit acts of violence like neo-Nazis or the Ku Klux Klan.
00:55:44.780However, white supremacy in the context of this study centers the relationship between historical and unconscious bias that benefits whiteness through its structures, policies, culture, and experiences over non-white individuals.
00:55:55.240Therefore, it is irresponsible for me to begin this study without acknowledging the privileges that I am afforded in conducting this study as a white individual, but also the contribution that I make to violence.
00:56:04.780Like white supremacy in the academy, violence in the university shows up in different ways than what may be explicitly produced.
00:56:11.200Violence in the context of this study includes interpersonal violence like slurs and ignorance, politics that disproportionately have a negative impact on marginalized identities or bodies, the hierarchical misuse of administrative power that make change seem impossible, and the lack of understanding and support given to the marginalized university community.
00:56:29.720And that's just the first few sentences of the introduction.
00:56:34.500It's good that they took the whole document off the website.
00:56:36.900I don't know if you could read much more of that or hear much more of it without slipping irretrievably into insanity.
00:56:42.780So let's go through this somewhat haphazardly and make four points in no particular order.
00:56:49.280First, bookmark this podcast and remember that segment and come back to it.
00:56:54.280This segment, in fact, that we're in right now.
00:56:55.440And come back to it next time somebody demands that you define critical race theory.
00:57:00.040Because what you just heard is critical race theory.
00:57:03.100It's hard to define because it's a jumbled, unintelligible mess.
00:57:07.900It's like being asked to describe in precise terms the contents of a port-a-potty.
00:57:14.520Now, you may not be able to break it all down in specific detail, but what you can say is that whatever is in there, it's a whole bunch of s**t.
00:57:21.880For critical race theory, the particulars are intentionally hard to discern and also irrelevant.
00:57:27.480Whatever finer distinction it draws, we know that it teaches that white people are inherently racist, that all non-white people are victims of systemic racism, that all white people are beneficiaries of systemic privilege, and that white people all bear guilt because of this.
00:57:41.700And that also, because of this, they cannot be the victims of racism.
00:57:44.840Even if a black man beats a white man unconscious and spits on his lifeless body, still, that is not racism.
00:59:37.220You know, they indoctrinate you into it little by little.
00:59:40.940And there are a lot of reasons for that.
00:59:42.200One of the reasons is that if you just dove into Scientology and they put you all the way up at level 7 or whatever the levels are, and they put you there right away, nothing that you're hearing would make any sense to you.
00:59:53.860Because you have to be brought into it slowly and slowly until you kind of adopt the logic, which is an illogic, of this whole system.
01:00:02.040But from the outside, it's completely ridiculous and has nothing of value to offer anybody.
01:00:07.500Christianity, which is not a false religion, is not like that.
01:00:12.840Christianity has wisdom, you know, even if you're not religious, even if you don't believe in Christianity.
01:00:21.700You can, and many people have, pick up the Gospels and read them.
01:00:25.140And you'll find much wisdom and insight into the human condition that you don't need to be a Christian to understand or even believe.
01:00:42.260So if you're a parent and you're thinking about sending your kid to college and plunging yourself or your child into decades of debt, this is what you're paying for.
