The NXR Podcast - THE FRIDAY SPECIAL - “Judeo-Christian” Was Always A Psyop with Andrew Isker

00:00:00.000 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform.

00:00:03.760 I get it.

00:00:04.580 It's annoying.

00:00:05.340 Everybody asks, but I'm going to tell you why.

00:00:07.640 When you give us a positive review, what that does is it triggers the algorithm so that

00:00:12.400 our podcast shows up on more people's news feeds.

00:00:16.240 You and I both know that this ministry is willing to talk about things that most ministries

00:00:20.760 aren't.

00:00:21.820 We need this content for the glory of God to reach more people's ears.

00:00:26.920 You're doing a great job.

00:00:28.100 We've got several hundred reviews so far, but we'd like to reach a thousand reviews by the end of this year, the year of our Lord, 2024.

00:00:36.860 If you haven't left a review yet, take a moment and help us achieve our goal.

00:00:41.560 His final woe to the scribes and Pharisees is that they erect elaborate monuments for the prophets and say,

00:00:47.760 if they had been around in our father's days, we would not have killed them.

00:00:52.120 There's a great application today within the church.

00:00:54.440 Many of the very same men who hold conferences and publish books honoring the Reformers

00:00:59.280 will go out of their way to destroy anyone who holds the same political and cultural views.

00:01:04.980 Men who honor Calvin and Luther, who put busts of them in their offices

00:01:08.900 and proudly display their every word that they ever wrote on their bookshelves,

00:01:14.180 will dox and drive men out of their churches who believe the same things Calvin and Luther did.

00:01:20.480 If we were around in the Reformation, we wouldn't have burned the Reformers at the stake.

00:01:25.040 all right so this I think pairs up nicely with one of the chief texts that we will be using

00:01:54.420 from the Gospel of Matthew for this particular episode,

00:01:57.020 which is, what's the text, the reference?

00:01:59.540 The reference is, yeah, Matthew chapter 23.

00:02:04.280 It's a parable.

00:02:05.380 Yeah. 0.74

00:02:06.140 And it's a parable about killing the Lord's servants, 0.97

00:02:11.240 killing the prophets. 0.96

00:02:12.840 That's 21, yeah. 0.94

00:02:13.960 Right, and then ultimately,

00:02:15.660 the master of the vineyard says,

00:02:18.880 well, surely they'll respect my son.

00:02:21.960 And they say, well, no, 1.00

00:02:22.960 this is our chance to kill him too and take the inheritance. 0.99

00:02:25.620 Yeah, it's going to be ours. 1.00

00:02:26.600 Right.

00:02:27.000 And so this idea of, you know, we wouldn't have killed the prophets.

00:02:30.420 Our fathers did that, but we'll build tombs to the prophets.

00:02:33.100 But then you kill Jesus. 0.97

00:02:34.860 Yeah. 0.88

00:02:35.260 You know, and this is, you know, the same thing that we see going on today.

00:02:39.580 Like, oh, I love John Knox.

00:02:41.960 No, brother, you would have excommunicated John Knox.

00:02:44.640 Yeah.

00:02:44.980 What did you think about the trumpet blast of John Knox?

00:02:48.220 Right.

00:02:48.940 Exactly. 1.00

00:02:49.340 You hate John Knox because you're a feminist deep down inside. 1.00

00:02:52.960 deep down. You know, as somebody said, I found it really funny. He was defining 0.61

00:02:58.640 patriarchy, feminism, and then complementarianism. He said, patriarchy is when men lead. Feminism

00:03:08.120 is when women lead. And complementarianism is when men lead in all the ways that their

00:03:14.300 wives give them permission to. In other words, if you're complementarian, let's just be honest,

00:03:20.640 you're a feminist. And so that's why you mentioned the trumpet blast. Modern day reformed guys who 1.00

00:03:29.340 would claim to appreciate male headship would have despised John Knox and despised Luther and

00:03:35.960 all these different things. And that's the very same thing that Jesus noticed during his earthly

00:03:42.400 ministry is you guys say that you love Jeremiah, you love Isaiah, and yeah, our fathers. They

00:03:47.260 weren't fan favorites in their day. And yeah, we recognize that we descend from the guys who

00:03:53.060 killed them, but we're better. We get it now. We get it. We heard their message and we love it.

00:03:59.260 Love Jeremiah. Love Isaiah. There's this tomb right over there. We donate money to keep upkeep

00:04:03.780 on it. And also on a side note, please crucify Jesus. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. So anyways, let's

00:04:10.400 just start by, if you don't mind, can we read the parable of Matthew 23?

00:04:14.140 In 21, the parable of the tenants.

00:04:17.660 And so Jesus says, Matthew 21, starting in verse 33,

00:04:21.000 hear another parable.

00:04:22.640 There was a master of a house who planted a vineyard

00:04:26.060 and put a fence around it and dug a wine press in it

00:04:29.380 and built a tower and leased it to tenants

00:04:31.600 and went into another country.

00:04:34.240 When the season for fruit drew near,

00:04:36.680 he sent his servants to the tenants to get his fruit.

00:04:39.960 And the tenants took his servants and beat one, killed another, and stoned another.

00:04:47.400 Again, he sent other servants, more than the first, and they did the same to them.

00:04:53.400 Finally, he sent his son to them, saying, they will respect my son.

00:04:59.220 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, this is the heir, come, let 0.97

00:05:05.640 us kill him and have his inheritance. 0.58

00:05:07.700 and they took him and threw him out of the vineyard 1.00

00:05:10.660 and killed him.

00:05:12.720 When therefore the owner of the vineyard comes,

00:05:15.540 what will he do to those tenants?

00:05:17.780 They said to him, 1.00

00:05:19.520 he will put those wretches to a miserable death 0.99

00:05:21.800 and let out the vineyard to other tenants 0.98

00:05:23.900 who will give him the fruits in their seasons.

00:05:26.700 Jesus said to them,

00:05:28.320 have you never read the scriptures?

00:05:29.940 The stone the builders rejected

00:05:31.800 has become the cornerstone.

00:05:34.200 This was the Lord's doing

00:05:35.260 and it is marvelous in our eyes.

00:05:37.700 Therefore, I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people producing its fruits.

00:05:44.960 And the one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces.

00:05:48.060 And when it falls on anyone, it will crush him.

00:05:51.080 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they perceived that he was speaking about them.

00:05:57.760 And although they were seeking to arrest him, they feared the crowds because they held him to be a prophet. 0.95

00:06:03.700 Very perceptive.

00:06:05.320 Wait, wait a second.

00:06:06.460 Well, it is amazing.

00:06:07.480 perceive that you were talking about us. Yeah, I just said it to you.

00:06:10.440 It's amazing. All the parables before this, everyone is like, what is he saying? I really

00:06:16.580 don't know. That's hard to figure out, right? We talked about how they're littles, right?

00:06:20.780 I don't really, nah, I'm not really sure.

00:06:21.940 The parables were not meant to explain things in simple terms so that more could understand,

00:06:25.900 but a fulfillment of Isaiah that ever hearing, or listening, ever hearing, never listening,

00:06:31.000 ever seeing, never perceiving, it was to conceal things.

00:06:34.180 It's like the dreams of Joseph or the dreams that Joseph interpreted, like the Pharaoh's dream and the cupbearer's dream, the butler's dream.

00:06:42.600 They couldn't understand what these dreams mean.

00:06:45.260 But earlier, right, earlier Joseph has a dream and he's telling his brothers about this dream.

00:06:51.220 Well, I saw 11 stars bow down to me and the sun and the moon bowing down to me.

00:06:56.960 and his brothers and father and mother,

00:07:01.080 they did not need an interpreter to know,

00:07:03.900 oh, that's about us.

00:07:06.220 And we're going to bow down to you.

00:07:08.200 What?

00:07:09.700 And so it's the same manner, right?

00:07:12.620 All of these parables are just a mystery.

00:07:14.640 Oh, how, what could this mean?

00:07:16.200 Even the disciples have to go to Jesus and say,

00:07:18.600 hey, can you tell us what that means?

00:07:19.820 Right, the parable of the four soils.

00:07:21.480 What does that mean?

00:07:21.960 Tell us what that means.

00:07:23.200 Here, the chief priests and the scribes,

00:07:25.560 And remember, they are in the temple, right?

00:07:27.660 They are in the temple.

00:07:28.800 And Jesus is saying this.

00:07:30.020 He's addressing the Pharisees,

00:07:31.220 the big, important religious leaders, right?

00:07:33.380 He's addressing the chief priests, right?

00:07:35.300 All of the most important religious officials,

00:07:38.560 really the rulers of Israel, right?

00:07:40.940 In the temple at Passover.

00:07:42.300 So the temple is full of people.

00:07:43.620 There are thousands of people there in public

00:07:46.460 seeing Jesus saying this, right?

00:07:50.800 This isn't in private.

00:07:51.620 This isn't a private conversation.

00:07:52.960 This is him in the temple.

00:07:54.620 And by the way, like what had just occurred, right?

00:07:57.280 All of the people, right, laid down palm branches

00:08:00.580 and their coats and everything as Jesus comes in

00:08:02.680 and they're hailing him as the legitimate ruler of Israel.

00:08:07.500 The king is here.

00:08:09.120 The son of David is here.

00:08:11.200 The high priest at the time was not a legitimate high priest. 0.50

00:08:15.800 He was not descended from Zadok.

00:08:19.360 He was an illegitimate high priest 0.89

00:08:20.880 that came in during the time of the Maccabees.

00:08:22.700 They set themselves up as both the kings and the priests there.

00:08:26.560 And then they intermarried with the Herods and so forth. 1.00

00:08:28.880 The kingly side did. 0.87

00:08:30.300 And this high priest was set up and he is not descended from Zadok. 1.00

00:08:35.220 And so he's illegitimate.

00:08:36.320 He's not the real high priest.

00:08:38.280 Caiaphas, yeah.

00:08:39.060 He is not a legitimate high priest.

00:08:40.740 So he knows this.

00:08:41.900 Everybody knows this.

00:08:42.760 And so he knows his position is tenuous among the people.

00:08:46.200 And here comes this Jesus who all the people are hailing as the son of David,

00:08:51.300 as the legitimate ruler of Israel.

00:08:54.060 So what would he feel in this moment?

00:08:56.060 He would be very envious of Jesus,

00:08:58.440 very angry and very nervous about Jesus.

00:09:01.100 So they attack him, right?

00:09:02.380 They attack him and this is Jesus' response to them

00:09:05.160 in public in front of everybody.

00:09:07.260 When I preached on this in my church,

00:09:11.040 I likened it and this is maybe,

00:09:13.060 this would be the,

00:09:13.960 Joel has been saying all the controversial stuff so far, right?

00:09:17.520 This is the controversial thing I'll think of.

00:09:19.260 Like, imagine in, and this is going on YouTube, so I have to be very careful how I say this, right?

00:09:25.240 Imagine at some point in 2022, right?

00:09:29.300 There's a big, there's 100,000 people in Washington, D.C.

00:09:33.380 Imagine an event like that and hailing Donald Trump as the legitimate president of the United States, like during the State of the Union.

00:09:41.720 And he just barges into the Capitol building and begins arguing with Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden and things like that.

00:09:48.600 And of course, I'm not making the comparison

00:09:49.900 between Jesus and Donald Trump.

00:09:51.180 Don't take, I'm making an analogy.

00:09:53.360 I'm not saying that they're the same at all.

00:09:56.060 Right.

00:09:56.460 I'm making the analogy

00:09:57.340 in terms of the political dimensions of it, right?

00:10:00.200 What would that look, that's what this looks like, right?

00:10:03.580 This contested authority here in the temple.

00:10:07.380 And he is telling them, right?

00:10:09.680 He is telling them this, what are you doing?

00:10:12.560 This is about them and they know it's about them.

00:10:15.480 He's telling them this parable about the vineyard.

00:10:18.820 What's God's vineyard?

00:10:19.860 It's Israel.

00:10:21.040 And he says, I want fruit. 0.69

00:10:23.560 I'm owed fruit.

00:10:25.080 And there's no fruit to be had.

00:10:26.900 And he sends his prophets to come collect the fruit.

00:10:30.000 And what has Israel done all throughout their history? 0.93

00:10:32.200 They've murdered the prophets. 0.92

00:10:34.660 They've killed them. 0.83

00:10:36.020 And finally, right, Hebrews says in the last days, right?

00:10:39.560 Well, the last days have come. 0.89

00:10:40.700 The last days for Israel have come. 1.00

00:10:43.780 He sends the son. 0.96

00:10:45.020 And what do they do? 0.95

00:10:45.940 They say, well, if we kill him, right, then the vineyard is ours. 0.98

00:10:49.720 We can keep the inheritance.

00:10:51.980 And what does Jesus, he asked them a question at the end of this.

00:10:54.840 That's the amazing thing.

00:10:55.680 He asked them this question.

00:10:57.920 What do you think the king is going to do when he finds out that they have killed his son?

00:11:04.700 Well, he's going to come in. 0.99

00:11:06.060 He's going to kill all of them and give the vineyard to somebody else. 0.98

00:11:10.200 And Jesus says, right, he doesn't say, yeah, you're right. 0.98

00:11:13.360 He says, right, have you not heard, have you not read the scriptures, right, the stone that the builders rejected is the cornerstone, right?

00:11:22.000 And this is the Lord's doing and it's marvelous in our eyes.

00:11:24.120 And yes, precisely, you have answered rightly that this vineyard is going to be taken away from you and given to somebody.

00:11:34.240 Who is the somebody else? 1.00

00:11:35.680 It is the Gentiles. 1.00

00:11:37.620 It's the whole world. 1.00

00:11:38.400 And it's the faithful remnant within Israel, right? 0.98

00:11:41.220 But that's who it's going to belong to, not to you anymore. 1.00

00:11:45.300 Not to Israel, but to the world, to the Gentiles, 0.99

00:11:48.320 and all those among Israel according to the flesh, 0.99

00:11:51.240 but who are actually a remnant of Israel according to the promise.

00:11:54.980 According to the promises.

00:11:56.280 Then they would be welcomed as well.

00:11:58.300 But one of the things that stands out to me about the parable

00:12:00.900 and everything you just explained,

00:12:04.560 so many of our modern evangelicals,

00:12:07.780 if they didn't, if the verse wasn't sitting right there

00:12:11.800 in the Bible playing for all to see

00:12:13.780 and to read in black and white

00:12:15.560 and you posed it as a question

00:12:18.760 or some kind of pop, you know, Christian quiz.

00:12:23.180 Yeah, like a little Bible trivia.

00:12:24.500 Yeah, and you said, how does Jesus respond?

00:12:28.400 He gives this illustration, you know,

00:12:30.820 of these servants in a vineyard

00:12:33.460 that, you know, they kill the king's servants

00:12:36.180 that he sends to collect the harvest.

00:12:38.560 Then the king sends his son. 0.90

00:12:39.960 They kill the son too.

00:12:42.040 Now, what is the king going to do? 0.50

00:12:44.400 And, you know, the Pharisees and these religious rulers, 0.74

00:12:46.680 they answer and say, well, the king's going to kill him, 0.96

00:12:49.200 wipe him out and give it to somebody else. 0.97

00:12:51.240 And then, you know, if you said,

00:12:52.840 and how do you think Jesus responds?

00:12:54.480 I feel like most evangelicals would guess and say,

00:12:57.040 Jesus would respond by saying no.

00:12:59.340 See, you would think that.

00:13:00.940 But the beauty of the gospel

00:13:02.960 is that God is far kinder than that.

00:13:05.140 Whereas, you know, but you know what I mean?

00:13:07.640 Like you could trick up, you could trick up, you know, like 95%.

00:13:10.220 If you give it without attribution, you don't tell people what the rest of the story is.

00:13:12.840 Yeah, I mean, 95% of evangelicals would fail this quiz.

00:13:17.080 Yeah, maybe.

00:13:17.740 When the reality is that, you know, that Jesus says, bingo.

00:13:21.900 Yeah, you got it. 0.51

00:13:22.800 You got it.

00:13:23.380 That's right.

00:13:23.800 You were right.

00:13:24.940 That's right.

00:13:25.580 What the king, in this case, in the king, of course, Jesus is talking about his father.

00:13:29.700 He's talking about God.

00:13:31.020 And he says, yeah, you're right. 1.00

00:13:32.260 the king, after you kill me, his son, he's going to kill you. He's going to come back and wipe you 1.00

00:13:38.500 out. Yep. He's going to wipe you out and he's going to do it by providence. And he's going to 0.78

00:13:43.300 do it in the same timing that I'll tell you later about Matthew 24, before this generation passes 0.98

00:13:48.720 away. And he's going to take the kingdom and he's going to give it to others. And that's exactly 0.94

00:13:54.660 what God has done. And so to think that there's still, I mean, we've at this point of the series,

00:13:59.360 you know it's parable after parable it's it's doctrine after doctrine and verse after verse

00:14:03.760 to think that there's still something left yeah for a nation state of israel not spiritual israel

00:14:11.660 according to the promise not the church true left biblically covenantally right for these people

00:14:16.280 exactly to think that like oh well you know but there's still some hangover promise god still

00:14:20.440 there's some part of the story there's still like no that all the words of scripture are just it's

00:14:25.800 just finality after finality after finality. It's done. It's done. It's done. It's done.

00:14:30.920 And it's not as though God failed through what He was doing with earthly Israel. No, He did 0.90

00:14:39.000 precisely what He set out to do. He used Israel as the workers, the laborers, who through them, 0.98

00:14:46.140 he brought about the seed, who also is the stone, right? The capstone of, Israel was never 0.70

00:14:55.940 the building project. They were really, should be thought of more likened to the construction

00:15:01.900 workers. They were the workers. And Jesus uses this exact language. They were the designated

00:15:08.600 construction workers. And that was a privilege to be chosen and called to get to do such

00:15:15.940 important work. And they were all used for centuries to finish the first stage of the

00:15:23.520 building project, which was to carve out and establish and lay the first perfect stone,

00:15:32.700 the capstone, to bring about the seed, the stone, the Christ. And then surrounding Christ and this

00:15:39.200 stone was all the other foundational stones, the apostles and the prophets. And then by the end

00:15:45.480 of the New Testament. The apostles are done. Old Testament, the prophets are done. Christ has come

00:15:51.300 in his earthly ministry and has now died, resurrected, ascended, Pentecost, spirit poured

00:15:57.340 out. And Christ has also come back in a spiritual parousia in AD 70 as judgment, precisely as he

00:16:04.340 said he would. It's done. And so now the whole foundation has laid the apostles and prophets

00:16:09.700 and Christ as the capstone. And now we're building walls and roof and this and that.

00:16:13.980 and what is that? New Testament church. That's what Ephesians says. We are being built together

00:16:20.100 and that's to Ephesians, that is Gentile Christians. We are being built together as 0.93

00:16:24.660 living stones. Jews and Gentiles together. That's right. All believing Jews, that is those who

00:16:28.780 accept Christ as Messiah and all Gentiles who accept Christ as Messiah. The defining

00:16:34.260 characteristic now is no longer natural birth, Jew or Gentile or circumcision or non-circumcision.

00:16:41.300 the defining characteristic now, only two categories, those in Christ through faith

00:16:46.100 and those who are not. That's it. And that's where we are today. And that basic understanding,

00:16:53.100 that's what this whole series is espousing. It's just example after example, biblically,

00:16:58.580 basically every episode we're following this basic mold. Here's another scripture. Here's

00:17:04.160 how it proves that God's done with Israel. And then the second half of the episode is, 0.84

00:17:08.260 and here's why that matters today in a relevant fashion today because this affects politics

00:17:15.380 geopolitics and affects the you know the the impending arrival of world war three like it

00:17:21.040 has real applications yeah it affects our culture it affects everything and and yeah that that is

00:17:28.040 the thing i mean even in the last episode that we did um you know that that one i'm sure uh when

00:17:34.200 it's released would be very controversial and, and, but good. It needs to be like this controversy

00:17:39.500 needs to be approached head on. We shouldn't be, we shouldn't be afraid of it. We shouldn't be

00:17:44.660 afraid of this discussion. Um, because like if you, if you have the right biblical framework for

00:17:49.700 these things, right, if you understand that all of this is in the past, right, all of the, 0.56

00:17:55.380 the Jew Gentile distinction, all of these things are, are back here 2000 years ago and the modern

00:18:01.520 people right we don't have them on this pedestal and and think that they're the holy chosen people 0.55

00:18:07.300 they're just people like anybody else right there's good people and bad people and and but

00:18:12.720 they hold to a religion that is opposed right if they if they do hold to it that's opposed to christ

00:18:17.220 and we have to take account of that right right we have to just call it as we see it rather than

00:18:23.260 pretending that something else is going on that it's you know so many people are wrapped up

00:18:28.320 in, you know, the post-war consensus.

00:18:31.600 And, you know, at the conference that we did here in Texas

00:18:33.960 with Stephen and CJ and Paul Gottfried,

00:18:36.580 who is Jewish, by the way,

00:18:38.440 we did this conference

00:18:40.140 and we talked a lot about the post-war consensus.

00:18:43.060 This is something that people, right,

00:18:44.740 the people that attack us,

00:18:45.780 all these guys do is talk about the post-war consensus.

00:18:49.180 But, you know, the way we summarized it,

00:18:51.380 I was telling Stephen Wolf this,

00:18:53.140 like, how would you, we were talking,

00:18:55.000 like, how do you describe it in, like, one sentence?

00:18:56.600 and and i said all right what's the post-war consensus it's that everybody and everything

00:19:03.720 i don't like is hitler right right everybody and everything i don't like is hitler that's it

00:19:08.520 and and so our entire moral framework is based around 1930 and 1940 and every every bad thing

00:19:16.000 is hitler every every failure to confront the bad thing is neville chamberlain uh and you know

00:19:22.560 Saddam Hussein, Hitler, Vladimir Putin, Hitler, Donald Trump, Hitler, right? That's the only moral 0.73

00:19:28.220 framework that we have that is operable. And so if you dispense with that, if you adopt the moral

00:19:34.720 framework of our forefathers and of Christians before the 20th century, right, you can look at 0.86

00:19:41.800 these things and say, all right, here's a group of people that are not Christians, right? Some of

00:19:47.500 them might be very hostile to the Christian faith, right? We have to be wary of them, right? We have 1.00

00:19:54.060 to not allow them to have power in our culture and destroy Christian culture, but that also doesn't 0.81

00:20:00.720 mean, therefore, that we have to treat them as this existential threat that are enemies. They're 0.61

00:20:06.120 just other people that are not like us, and our laws will protect them, and that's the way

00:20:13.360 america was they should be treated fairly but they don't they get to ride in the car yeah uh and and

00:20:20.460 be treated uh respectfully in the car yeah but they don't get to drive it's like having a family

00:20:25.200 um and you know you have foster children in your family right you wouldn't even give your own

00:20:30.840 children the credit card or the family budget but you're definitely not giving it to the foster

00:20:35.540 you're just take the credit card do whatever you want um right no no you you the christian

00:20:39.980 religion has to be central. It has to have cultural hegemony. And part of that cultural

00:20:44.640 hegemony is the moral framework that we follow, that marriage is good. Family is good. Murdering

00:20:51.440 babies is bad. Pornography is bad. Sexual degeneracy is bad. And we won't allow that to 1.00

00:20:59.160 be subverted. That's one of the fruits of secularism. And what secularism is, isn't just,

00:21:06.020 um oh we have religious liberty now everybody can decide whatever they want it's to say that there

00:21:11.860 is there is no religious hegemon right there is no religious foundation in a society it's a free

00:21:18.100 for all and you can understand why why jews as a group would want that right because now christian

00:21:25.040 there's a christian cultural hegemony i won't feel like there's this powerful majority group

00:21:29.380 that i'm living as a minority in but right it makes you feel more comfortable right so you can

00:21:34.020 see why, right, when you look through and see, okay, oh, this, all of these different

00:21:38.340 academics that supported secularism, right, that's why they, oh, did you know that they

00:21:43.220 were Jewish?

00:21:43.900 Right. 0.91

00:21:44.180 It's like, well, it makes sense why.

00:21:46.240 Yeah, of course. 1.00

00:21:46.600 You don't want Christianity to be the potent moral force in the society. 1.00

00:21:51.100 Because it's not your team. 1.00

00:21:52.300 Yeah, yeah, of course not.

00:21:53.400 You're not going to co-sign the victory of a team that's not yours.

00:21:58.680 Exactly.

00:21:58.920 You're going to be rooting for your own team.

00:22:00.660 Yeah, so you can see why they pursued it. 0.98

00:22:03.000 But then the Christian just has to be aware of that. 0.95

00:22:05.460 Exactly. 0.99

00:22:06.020 You have to realize.

00:22:07.620 It doesn't mean you hate them.

00:22:08.740 This person, I don't hate them.

00:22:12.120 I'm not wishing ill for them.

00:22:13.800 But they don't want my team to be robust and strong because it's not in their interest.

00:22:20.020 So what does that mean?

00:22:21.420 Well, it means that I can't make them team captain.

00:22:24.800 If they don't want the team to win, I can't put them on the team and much less make them team captain. 1.00

00:22:29.580 But that's what Christians do. 0.99

00:22:30.920 Yeah, what secularism is, is, I mean, yeah, Christians end up doing that. 0.97

00:22:33.940 Christians are constant, Judeo-Christian, and then the tail actually wags the dog. 0.95

00:22:37.900 Exactly. 0.99

00:22:38.520 Emphasis on Judeo and, you know, a minor, a little Christian. 0.98

00:22:44.680 Because, yeah, what does that do?

00:22:46.140 It is, and Stephen said this in Ogden.

00:22:48.660 Right.

00:22:49.380 Right, Judeo-Christian actually enhances and supports secularism.

00:22:53.560 Yes.

00:22:54.140 Because, right, that's not a real religion.

00:22:56.540 No. 0.98

00:22:56.760 That's an amalgam of two opposing religions. 0.77

00:23:00.920 And, right, when you say, well, I believe in the Judeo-Christian God, well, that isn't a God that exists.

00:23:07.920 That God doesn't exist.

00:23:09.020 Right.

00:23:09.300 There isn't a Judeo-Christian God.

00:23:10.760 They don't have a triune God.

00:23:12.440 Jesus is not their God.

00:23:14.940 Right.

00:23:15.240 And so, what it does is it subverts Christianity because you can't say Jesus is Lord.

00:23:21.420 Right.

00:23:21.740 You have to say the lowercase g God of the civil religion is Lord.

00:23:26.460 Right. 0.92

00:23:26.560 And God we trust is lowercase g in that case.

00:23:29.700 Right.

00:23:30.920 All right. I'm going to be honest with you. This one, it's going behind the paywall. It's not

00:23:36.100 something we typically do. In fact, thus far, every single piece of content that we've produced

00:23:41.380 here at Right Response Ministries has eventually been made available to you for free publicly.

00:23:47.780 This is an exception though. First two episodes will launch publicly. The next seven episodes

00:23:53.240 will exclusively be available for our members at patreon.com forward slash Right Response Ministries.

00:24:00.220 Why? Well, I'll give you the reason. Because right now, the vast majority of evangelical

00:24:06.860 Christians are not ready for the conversation that we have in these episodes. And frankly,

00:24:12.940 you and I both know that many of those individuals are actually bad faith actors who will seek to

00:24:19.840 slice it up, take us out of context, put it out there for the worldwide web in order to discredit

00:24:25.620 this ministry and see to it that we're canceled and honestly i'm not willing to let that happen

00:24:31.980 what conversation am i even talking about i'm talking about nine part series between myself

00:24:38.480 and pastor andrew isker on israel the history the scripture the whole big shebang

00:24:45.940 check it out at patreon.com forward slash right response ministries you can get every single

00:24:53.300 episode available now, all of it ad-free. And here's a couple of clips just to whet your appetite.

00:24:59.600 And so our entire moral framework is based around 1930 and 1940. And every bad thing is Hitler. 0.89

00:25:07.120 Every failure to confront the bad thing is Neville Chamberlain. And Saddam Hussein, Hitler. 0.85

00:25:14.280 Vladimir Putin, Hitler. Donald Trump, Hitler. That's the only moral framework that we have

00:25:19.980 that is operable. 0.80

00:25:21.560 So the moment that a young man crosses the aisle

00:25:23.720 and the don't believe your lying eyes rhetoric

00:25:27.620 doesn't work any longer.

00:25:29.060 And he's just noticed too much

00:25:31.360 because it really is that blatantly obvious.

00:25:33.020 And he has nowhere else to go.

00:25:33.660 And he crosses the aisle.

00:25:34.800 Well, the moment he crosses the aisle,

00:25:36.040 there's no reasonable, wise, mature leader over there.

00:25:38.760 You would just have the guys on the TV telling them,

00:25:41.880 this is what the Bible says.

00:25:43.420 You have to believe this, right?

00:25:44.960 On the radio, the Christian radio stations,

00:25:46.960 you'd only hear those guys preaching

00:25:48.780 that particular thing when the when that is actually when you look at all of church history

00:25:55.360 that's that's the minority view a tiny minority view the rest of theological history in the church

00:26:02.540 is that you know is the the kind of stuff that we're saying yeah this one's a banger again

00:26:10.000 go to patreon.com forward slash right response ministries to get all nine parts ad free right

00:26:16.800 now available today let's go back real quick to the post-war sentiment you said you know what is

00:26:26.120 the post-war sentiment it's uh it's everything i like what you said i think it was um it's just

00:26:31.940 true simple and yes steven stole it from me if people have seen that video he stole it but you

00:26:36.500 said the post-war sentiment in a nutshell is saying anything that i don't like is hitler

00:26:40.740 and and just i i was as you said that i was just thinking of fleshing it out just a little bit more

00:26:45.280 and saying you know begging the question why yeah why like think about this for a second why um

00:26:51.620 why are there like seven hollywood films on world war ii and the evil of hitler annually

00:27:01.200 i was gonna say every year every yeah not just total no every like like almost like it's a

00:27:05.980 quota that has to be filled like have you do you feel like hollywood puts out as many stalin movies

00:27:11.540 No.

00:27:12.220 Even the one that was really good, The Death of Stalin, that was a British movie.

00:27:18.060 Right.

00:27:18.440 Hollywood didn't do it.

00:27:19.160 Hollywood in America never makes any movies about the Soviet Union.

00:27:24.760 There was a good movie, really horrific movie about the crimes of the Soviet Union in Ukraine produced by the British.

00:27:35.060 The Killing Fields movie about the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, the communists there.

00:27:41.040 uh british right they're never any so it's like uh uh senator mccarthy was right hollywood

00:27:48.120 was is full of communists yes yes and that wasn't even my main point i know but i think that's true

00:27:53.920 that's true that so one there is yeah why isn't it everybody we don't like is stalin right exactly 0.87

00:28:00.480 but why hitler specifically yeah and so one it's because um and people begin you know naturally

00:28:06.900 modern modern you know americans think that way they you know they think uh don't be hitler yeah

00:28:13.860 he was bad i heard you know i have it on good authority hitler drank water you know don't drink

00:28:18.260 water you know anything you know i don't want any any similarity any tie to hitler and you know i've

00:28:23.660 thought about that and i've thought like okay so we have been very indoctrinated into the evils of

00:28:28.900 hitler and so i want to break this down a little bit uh one i think uh because a big thing that

00:28:33.600 shapes americans is entertainment and media yeah and entertainment and media has a very

00:28:38.660 disproportional you know representation of jews who really you know for a decent reason don't like

00:28:45.740 itler makes sense yeah i can see why so that's so that's part of it that makes sense but let's just

00:28:50.120 you know quickly move past that because i think there's that's not my my big point is not to say

00:28:54.280 that hollywood is owned by the jews and blah blah blah that's really not my big point um it's

00:28:59.560 We can save it for another episode. 1.00

00:29:00.900 There's a lot of truth in it, you know.

00:29:02.440 But anyways, that's not my main point.

00:29:04.480 My main point is to say the post-war sentiment,

00:29:08.580 a.k.a. everything I don't like is Hitler. 0.85

00:29:11.100 Okay, but why Hitler and not Stalin? 0.65

00:29:13.080 Because Hitler historically is the bad guy on the right. 0.77

00:29:19.760 See, that's the issue. 0.80

00:29:21.180 So just, you know, just a spoiler alert here.

00:29:25.100 The excess totalitarian, authoritarian on the right.

00:29:27.280 Just so that everyone can lean back in their chair and not freak out and feel at ease.

00:29:32.100 This is not going to be, neither Andrew or I are Hitler apologists.

00:29:36.000 So this is not going to be Adolf Hitler's The Last Christian Prince episode.

00:29:39.800 We're not doing that.

00:29:41.340 The more I hear about that guy, the more I don't care for him.

00:29:44.460 Right. 0.92

00:29:44.800 I think that Hitler was a bad guy.

00:29:46.840 Andrew thinks that Hitler was a bad guy. 1.00

00:29:48.480 But here's the point, and it does matter. 0.94

00:29:50.280 We both think that he was a bad guy, but we don't think that he was the worst bad guy.

00:29:54.400 Or the only bad guy.

00:29:55.740 Or the only bad guy.

00:29:56.500 And yet, since 1945, you would think so.

00:30:02.080 I mean, if aliens had been monitoring the planet, you know, for the last, you know, 80 years.

00:30:08.400 There's only one bad person that ever existed in history.

00:30:10.540 I mean, you know, if they were looking from the outside in and watching, you know, the media and watching entertainment, every film made and every, you know, museum and every historical lesson taught in schools, they would think that all of human history, they have only had one nemesis.

00:30:26.500 adolf hitler you know only one train i remember being a child um or a teenager in junior high

00:30:33.460 school and you know when you're when you're 12 or 13 years old like you get you get obsessed with

00:30:39.760 um world war ii like joel here i don't know if the camera can see it like he has this time

00:30:44.040 series of uh of world war ii i had the same one when i was a kid i read every single one of those

00:30:49.000 books i was just you know i was obsessed and reading you know um biographies of patten and

00:30:53.780 douglas mccardier and things like that and i remember is pat the one who said we fought on

00:30:59.020 the wrong side uh we yeah we defeated the wrong enemy or something like that and then mysteriously

00:31:03.840 ended up dead uh shortly thereafter and with that he if my memory serves me he said um i'm convinced

00:31:10.780 that we fought for the wrong side but then beyond that he said i fear that because of that and the

00:31:16.200 outcome of the war that um in 50 years time that americans um that the nation would be degenerate

00:31:22.220 Yeah, would be destroyed.

00:31:24.080 But destroyed from the inside out in terms of morals.

00:31:26.700 Yeah, and what he wanted was, all right,

00:31:28.420 take all of these surrendered German units,

00:31:30.580 rearm them, and send them east. 0.97

00:31:32.280 We need to fight the Soviets. 0.99

00:31:34.060 Right, the Bolsheviks.

00:31:35.260 And I remember discovering that as a child 0.69

00:31:38.280 and just discovering the fact that Stalin, 0.57

00:31:41.960 this guy who we're allied to,

00:31:43.240 killed tens of millions of people.

00:31:47.160 Right.

00:31:47.820 And I had to, I didn't, you know,

00:31:49.860 We had a year-long class in junior high about the Holocaust. 0.59

00:31:53.720 I had to like read that in my just side reading because I was a nerd.

00:31:58.080 Right, because you weren't taught that in school.

00:31:59.400 And I was like, whoa, we were on the side of another bad guy.

00:32:04.140 Why am I not told about this?

00:32:05.900 There were two bad guys.

00:32:06.760 This is crazy.

00:32:07.640 Right.

00:32:07.960 There were two bad guys and we picked one.

00:32:10.300 Right, whoa. 0.85

00:32:12.320 And like the idea of the crimes of the Soviet Union are so barbaric and so evil. 0.70

00:32:18.100 Right. 0.77

00:32:18.460 And no one has any idea about them at all.

00:32:20.860 And many Americans, because of the post-war indoctrination, think like we were – this was the great holy crusade.

00:32:27.000 But what did we end up doing?

00:32:28.140 We gave half of Europe to this horrible dictator who murdered millions of people.

00:32:34.500 Right.

00:32:35.020 And we were the good guys in that.

00:32:37.520 Of course we were.

00:32:38.160 I think of that and I think actually the 20th century is way more complex.

00:32:44.300 It's not this black and white struggle.

00:32:46.900 It's a lot of black and black, actually.

00:32:51.580 And so when the 20th century becomes much more complex,

00:32:55.860 and the complexity isn't that, oh, maybe one side was,

00:32:59.740 maybe we were on the bad side and that's the good side,

00:33:01.700 but rather there weren't any good sides.

00:33:03.520 But you don't have to do that.

00:33:04.880 You don't have to say Stalin was bad

00:33:08.420 and therefore Hitler was the last Christian prince.

00:33:12.000 You don't have to do that. 0.58

00:33:13.020 You don't have to do that either.

00:33:14.520 Right, you can say, no, no, no, Hitler was bad. 0.81

00:33:15.780 was bad in his own right. It's complex. Hitler was bad in his own right, and so was Stalin.

00:33:21.500 And Churchill, not on equal terms. I'm not saying that by any stretch. I'm not comparing it.

00:33:26.140 It'll be a whole episode to talk about Churchill.

00:33:27.500 I know. So, I'm not saying he's as bad as Hitler or as bad as Stalin. But Churchill

00:33:31.900 had some major problems, some major virtues, and some major problems. He was a bit of a

00:33:36.640 warmonger. And his involvement, kind of like a pit bull that just grabs something and won't let go,

00:33:42.180 was not particularly helpful in hindsight.

00:33:46.000 And so all that being said,

00:33:47.380 my point is the post-war sentiment, what is it?

00:33:50.180 It is everything I don't like is Hitler. 0.68

00:33:52.620 And then what I'm asking is one step further, why Hitler? 0.68

00:33:55.780 It's because Hitler is the bad guy on the right. 0.86

00:34:00.960 And what we need, I think, 0.98

00:34:03.040 in combating the spirit of the age, 1.00

00:34:05.360 the zeitgeist, the global homo 0.99

00:34:10.560 You know, that we're currently under this progressive, liberal, transient. 0.99

00:34:14.740 There's bad guys on the right and the left.

00:34:16.340 Right.

00:34:16.980 Exactly.

00:34:17.580 What we need to do is one of the things, there's a lot that we need to do.

00:34:20.660 We need to preach Christ and him crucified and see a great many people born again.

00:34:25.000 There's a lot of things we need to do.

00:34:26.120 We need to run for local office and win and legislate righteous laws.

00:34:30.600 But another thing that we need to do is understand history.

00:34:33.280 And we need to understand that regardless of what side we were in on the war,

00:34:38.020 I think one thing that we should all be able to agree with is that America and the West at large,

00:34:43.260 in terms of the populace, our people, and our virtues and our values, it has not improved since 1945.

00:34:51.700 No.

00:34:52.160 We've become far more immoral.

00:34:54.820 Yeah.

00:34:55.660 Yeah, since 1945 is when secularism begins to take off.

00:35:01.820 When we are no longer exclusively and particularly Christian.

00:35:07.020 Also when the term Judeo-Christian takes off.

00:35:09.140 And now we are secular, and there is no exclusive Christianity that's the cultural hegemon.

00:35:15.160 Now it's just all religions are equally valid. 0.83

00:35:17.840 Because if there was, that would be like Hitler. 0.95

00:35:19.980 Exactly.

00:35:20.380 Like Matt Walsh talked about, or was it Matt Walsh?

00:35:23.580 I don't want to misspeak.

00:35:25.120 One of those conservatives, I think it was him, talked about Weimar Germany and the transgender clinics and the books and all of these things and implied that it was a Nazi.

00:35:36.740 right when the reality is like the books that were being burned like were the transgender and

00:35:42.260 pro-homosexual and all of those books right right it's like no no man you got it completely wrong

00:35:48.440 and who put those books out yeah yeah i know and and so the the point overreaction uh-huh yeah

00:35:56.160 atrocities sin uh-huh evil things the point but what people are trying to do today on the left

00:36:02.980 is they're trying to say,

00:36:04.520 you can't,

00:36:06.420 they're saying you can't have a country,

00:36:07.840 you can't have values,

00:36:08.960 you can't have family,

00:36:09.800 you can't have tradition, 1.00

00:36:10.840 you can't have religion 0.95

00:36:11.920 because Hitler stood for all those things. 0.96

00:36:15.140 The second you have things, 0.89

00:36:16.100 then boom, you have Hitler. 0.97

00:36:17.600 Yes, and that's the whole point. 0.91

00:36:19.100 When we say the post-war sentiment,

00:36:21.080 the first time I heard the term

00:36:22.900 was Reno reading The Strong Gods.

00:36:25.500 And his whole point in that book

00:36:26.960 was saying there are weak gods

00:36:28.340 and strong gods.

00:36:29.060 The weak gods are universalism,

00:36:31.260 globalism versus-

00:36:32.540 and then whereas nationalism would be a strong god progressivism and versus like religion you

00:36:40.180 know tradition atomized individualism versus families yeah you know and and he just kind of

00:36:49.500 goes through all these feminism versus and egalitarianism versus patriarchy and father

00:36:55.540 rule and so he just goes kind of like you know side by side comparison of here are the weak gods

00:37:00.020 here are the strong gods. And when you look at it like that, that's when you realize why Hitler must 0.96

00:37:05.480 be engraved for all time as the worst bad guy. Because although there were abuses and although 0.81

00:37:13.060 he really was a bad guy, he was one of the few bad guys on the right. On the right. And that had

00:37:20.940 the strong gods, patriarchy, nationalism, tradition, religion, family. And so that's why.

00:37:28.820 And so shedding the post-war consensus is basically, I think, just red-pilling and saying no to the PSYOP and saying, yeah, I'm not a Hitler apologist, but nationalism, good. 0.66

00:37:41.620 Patriarchy, good.

00:37:43.720 These things are good. 0.99

00:37:45.020 And part of this, I think— 0.83

00:37:46.540 And if Hitler stood for these things, well, he stood for them poorly. 0.84

00:37:50.760 But that doesn't make these things bad. 0.78

00:37:52.280 Hitler also drank water, but I'm still going to drink water. 0.95

00:37:54.860 Goodness gracious. 0.74

00:37:55.800 Well, that's part of it, is the rejection of the post-war consensus and the post-war moral framework is a rejection of that line of thinking, of viewing the 20th century as much more complex than the Marvel version of history that we're given as children.

00:38:10.440 Right. 0.73

00:38:10.560 And which doesn't mean that immediately you say, oh, actually Hitler was good.

00:38:16.480 It's that you view the world in the complexity of reality rather than this silly fiction.

00:38:26.000 And on top of that, right, you're able to say, you call me this.

00:38:29.900 And I think it's kind of played out, right?

00:38:31.660 Because Trump has been called Hitler for eight years.

00:38:34.580 And he's not.

00:38:36.160 Right.

00:38:36.500 Right?

00:38:37.720 Not even close. 0.99

00:38:38.720 Like the joke, he has Jewish grandchildren.

00:38:40.900 He's not Hitler.

00:38:43.260 And so people hear that.

00:38:45.360 I mean, it's just like the term racist, right?

00:38:47.380 You get called that enough and it just falls on deaf ears eventually.

00:38:50.140 It loses its power.

00:38:51.640 And I think the power of the post-war consensus and moral framing is dying off.

00:38:56.440 Where people are seeing, right, well, if I oppose transgenderism and homosexuality and abortion and no-fault divorce and pornography and all of these things.

00:39:06.220 And giving billions of dollars to other countries. 1.00

00:39:08.420 Yeah, if I want to stand for my own country, I don't want my country invaded by tens of millions of foreign people. 0.93

00:39:14.480 I want a distinct people as my country. 0.97

00:39:18.400 And in the past, for 40, 50, 60, 80 years, if you stood for those things, you'd be called Hitler.

00:39:24.160 And now people are like, I don't care if you call me that.

00:39:27.240 I want those things. 0.95

00:39:27.880 Yeah, oh, Hitler. 0.92

00:39:28.820 Yeah, right.

00:39:29.200 And so the danger in all of this is that many young men have noticed this psyop that's being played on them.

00:39:41.120 And they swing right into the other ditch and say, oh, actually, he was good.

00:39:46.060 Part of the reason they swing into the other ditch, to be fair, is because there is on this issue, honestly, on this issue of Israel and alleged anti-Semitism.

00:39:56.920 And just to be frank, there are no mature leaders who are on what we would consider to be the correct side of the aisle, but holding a reasonable position.

00:40:10.620 Yeah, there isn't any issue for them.

00:40:13.140 Exactly.

00:40:13.500 So the moment that a young man crosses the aisle and the don't believe your lying eyes rhetoric doesn't work any longer.

00:40:20.900 And he's just noticed too much because it really is that blatantly obvious.

00:40:24.800 And he has nowhere else to go.

00:40:25.760 crosses the aisle. Well, the moment he crosses the aisle, there's no reasonable, wise, mature

00:40:29.660 leader over there. So, my point is to say that one of the ways to stop that, that you always have

00:40:35.080 useful idiots, but you don't have to have useful idiots by the millions, I'd like to think. 1.00

00:40:40.780 And you don't want your guys to be idiots. 1.00

00:40:42.600 Yes. So, one of the ways to stop an unnecessary surplus of useless idiots on the right 1.00

00:40:48.040 is to get some wise and mature men on the right. But what happens if all the wise and mature men 0.99

00:40:55.240 also happen to be cowardly men.

00:40:58.220 And on some issues, they're on the right, 0.97

00:41:00.760 and thank God for it.

00:41:01.880 But on this issue, for whatever reason,

00:41:05.000 they're like, no, Judeo-Christian is the line in the sand.

00:41:09.520 Yeah, because I don't want to be called Hitler.

00:41:10.920 It's a deal breaker.

00:41:11.880 I will not, you know.

00:41:13.000 I don't want to be called a Nazi for,

00:41:15.340 I mean, or just all the political issues

00:41:16.960 that are quintessentially rightist,

00:41:19.900 that are finally coming back into prominence,

00:41:22.680 whether it's borders or whether it's family,

00:41:25.240 family values, things of this nature.

00:41:30.160 The reason they haven't been,

00:41:31.840 the reason we've lost

00:41:32.920 is because they could run this play on us constantly.

00:41:36.560 And men, like you said, are afraid.

00:41:39.020 They're afraid of these things, 0.91

00:41:40.080 but you have this large glut of young,

00:41:42.720 especially young men

00:41:43.700 who are rejecting the caricatured history

00:41:48.800 that we've been given,

00:41:49.960 rejecting all of these.

00:41:51.100 They're noticing certain patterns in society.

00:41:54.020 and they have nobody, like you're saying,

00:41:57.740 they have nobody to look to to say,

00:42:00.280 hey, just tell me the truth.

00:42:02.440 I don't, I feel like I'm going crazy.

00:42:04.700 I feel like I'm going to be a social pariah

00:42:06.800 if I believe these things.

00:42:08.980 Tell me the truth and then also tell me

00:42:10.620 how in a righteous Christian way, how to respond.

00:42:13.820 Yeah, how do I live my life

00:42:15.020 in light of knowing these things?

00:42:16.240 Right, so what do you do with disproportional statistics

00:42:20.860 about people groups?

00:42:22.280 Like what do you do with the fact that there's a magnitude of six times the amount of crime, particularly homicide, from the black community to the white? 0.77

00:42:32.800 What do you do with that?

00:42:34.500 Like that is a real statistic.

00:42:36.060 But what we need is we need godly men to say, to stand right next to them and say, that is true.

00:42:41.080 Our leaders so far have just like, well, that's not happening.

00:42:45.240 You're a bad person for knowing it.

00:42:47.020 Exactly.

00:42:47.820 Or that's the conservative leaders.

00:42:50.360 than the woke leaders will say. 0.94

00:42:53.540 It's actually due to white people. 0.94

00:42:54.860 It's actually due to white people 0.97

00:42:56.000 and it's because the laws are racist

00:42:57.480 and because the prison system is racist

00:42:59.300 and because this is racist.

00:43:01.120 So the good guys, the conservative guys are saying,

00:43:04.520 well, those statistics are skewed

00:43:06.060 or it's because of this or it's because-

00:43:07.480 It's because of Democrat policies.

00:43:08.940 Right, exactly.

00:43:09.680 Things like that.

00:43:10.260 So what you need is you need godly guys

00:43:12.100 on the right with courage

00:43:13.580 who are able to look, to stare truth in the face.

00:43:16.980 And it's hard to look at the truth

00:43:18.020 because the truth sometimes is really ugly and scary.

00:43:20.360 And to be able to look in the face and say, no, you know what, that really is true.

00:43:24.480 But here's how to respond to that.

00:43:26.260 Here's a righteous course of action.

00:43:27.840 There are, by the grace of God, there's hope, there's white pills, and there's ways to respond to this in a godly way.

00:43:33.500 And you know how you respond to it in a godly way? 0.98

00:43:35.340 Whether it's, well, but it seems like more Jews disproportionately are involved with pornography or more black people are committing crimes. 0.99

00:43:43.340 Okay, well, you know what? 0.99

00:43:45.220 We don't have to pretend.

00:43:46.960 We can look at statistics, but we also then don't have to go after people.

00:43:51.520 What we go after is wickedness.

00:43:53.420 We go after wickedness.

00:43:55.080 And the beautiful thing about going after wickedness is you say, well, you know what? 0.99

00:43:59.800 Let's have a Christian nation. 0.57

00:44:00.800 Let's work towards a Christian nation where porn, by the grace of God, is not only a sin, but it's a crime.

00:44:06.560 And there are actually penalties. 0.95

00:44:09.240 And then what do you do?

00:44:10.260 Well, you solve the problem.

00:44:12.600 That solves the problem.

00:44:13.900 So you don't have to have the crusade to isolate one people group.

00:44:19.300 No, you just pursue righteousness.

00:44:21.720 You deal with the wickedness.

00:44:22.700 Yes.

00:44:23.920 So what if, and I'm not saying so what, because that's almost too cavalier.

00:44:28.360 That's the very spineless thing that I'm talking about.

00:44:30.820 But it does matter.

00:44:31.980 There is a so what.

00:44:32.920 It does matter.

00:44:34.060 But at the end of the day, what do you do about, well, per capita, this group over here is this way.

00:44:43.120 at a higher rate than this other group over here.

00:44:46.800 Well, then have a meritocracy.

00:44:49.820 Let the cream rise to the top.

00:44:51.920 And you know what you'll get?

00:44:53.200 You might end up getting a lot of white guys,

00:44:55.680 but you also get Clarence Thomas.

00:44:57.680 Praise God for him.

00:44:59.120 That's a great win. 0.99

00:45:00.020 You'll get some Thomas souls, you know,

00:45:01.800 and then you're doing it without being unhinged,

00:45:08.260 without overcompensating.

00:45:11.360 Yeah. But in order to get there, in order to have this idea of-

00:45:17.180 You need some older men with wisdom and courage.

00:45:19.400 Yeah. You need older men with wisdom and courage. And the courage is the biggest thing,

00:45:24.420 the most important thing to be able to say, I don't care what you call me. I care about what

00:45:29.800 is true. I'm going to pursue what is true and right and good regardless of whatever you call

00:45:36.880 because you're going to be called these things and you just have to not care.

00:45:40.040 It has to be water off of a duck's back.

00:45:43.560 And you do need these older, wiser men that can corral the young guys and point them the way forward and say, don't go into that ditch.

00:45:53.020 Stay away from that.

00:45:55.060 Follow this path. 0.99

00:45:56.980 Don't hate this group of people because, oh, they make porn. 1.00

00:46:00.500 I hate them. 1.00

00:46:01.840 You need to hate porn. 1.00

00:46:03.280 Or you could even hate individual guys who actually do that. 0.99

00:46:06.820 Yeah.

00:46:07.000 But you can't hate everybody because there's plenty of people who don't do that.

00:46:11.540 Yeah, precisely.

00:46:12.980 There has to be equal weights and measures.

00:46:15.080 I don't want to be treated that way.

00:46:16.540 I don't want to be treated.

00:46:17.880 Oh, you're a white guy. 1.00

00:46:18.860 You must be bad. 0.99

00:46:19.620 I mean, you can do it with gender. 1.00

00:46:20.720 You can say, in terms of statistics, men commit more crime than women. 0.99

00:46:24.540 And so, therefore, I hate all men. 0.98

00:46:26.500 I don't like when the feminist does that. 0.98

00:46:28.700 So, I can't. 1.00

00:46:30.500 We've got to be consistent.

00:46:32.860 But we also can't say that, well, more men go to prison for crime.

00:46:36.080 that systemic oppression of men.

00:46:39.100 No, we have to say, no, men actually do commit more crime.

00:46:41.300 Yeah, yeah.

00:46:42.040 They actually do.

00:46:43.080 And so what do we do about that?

00:46:44.560 We put men who commit crime in prison.

00:46:46.360 That's right.

00:46:47.060 Amen, amen.

00:46:48.460 All right, well, that's today's episode.

00:46:50.180 Any final thought?

00:46:51.200 I feel like it was a good one.

00:46:52.400 Yeah, it was great.

00:46:53.680 I mean, do you think we're being too spicy?

00:46:54.880 I feel like this is milk toast.

00:46:56.220 I feel like this is super mild.

00:46:58.000 No, I feel like what we are presenting here

00:47:01.040 is the reasonable course of action. 0.97

00:47:03.920 Like, the thing that we want to have for young men is older men. 0.55

00:47:08.640 Yeah, we're old.

00:47:09.140 You have gray in your beard now.

00:47:10.480 You know, if I grew a beard, it would be great.

00:47:12.040 We're getting older.

00:47:12.840 Yeah, we're getting older.

00:47:13.440 But we're not old.

00:47:14.720 But I feel like we are presenting the reasonable course of action for young Christian men on the right so they don't go down the dark paths.

00:47:25.480 That's in talking about these.

00:47:27.060 Like, I don't want to talk about – ordinarily, I wouldn't want to talk about these things.

00:47:30.940 I don't want to be thought of as the guy who talks about Jews all the time.

00:47:33.920 There's a lot more I like talking about, actually.

00:47:37.860 But I see the fact that none of our leaders are talking about these things anywhere.

00:47:44.340 If they do, they paper over, they hide it.

00:47:46.860 They tell you, don't look over there.

00:47:48.740 Don't look at the big elephant in the room.
