But Jack, I'm 0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:37.320 literally lying here waiting to check in to rehab for 0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:40.000 alcoholism right now.

They call it cow clips of the Week. 0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:17.440 It is cow. 0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:29.640 Okay, this there I'm surprised. 0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:36.720 Six houth. Let's just say Republican Senator Bernie Moreno of 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:40.319 Ohio calling his former son in law, Ohio Congressman Max 0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:42.160 Miller a madman. 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:46.280 Look, he called me and he said Max, He said, Maxie, 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:47.760 I don't know if you're going to be able to, 0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:49.040 you know, pull this one out. 0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:53.040 This is truly the seventh level of health. 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:57.320 There's a divergence of interest between parents and children. 0:01:58.320 --> 0:01:59.680 Fine, I think that asked. 0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:04.400 There is so much more that unites us than divides us. 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:08.800 Yeah, the murdered those in the street. 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:11.120 I'm not going to be in the same party with 0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:12.919 a San Prik. I can tell you that right now. 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:17.200 Thankskeeping is also a time that's incredibly painful for many 0:02:17.240 --> 0:02:18.600 people in our communities. 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:24.840 My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:27.919 Yep, I don't want to cancel it. I actually love it. 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:31.520 Did you ever support a self described socialist candidate? 0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:34.160 No, no way, by God, no. 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:38.880 Let the streets soak in their red capitalist bloods. 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.560 We're talking about the Strait, the opening of the Strait, 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:47.680 having it opened literally by tomorrow. The IRGC is continuing 0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:48.760 attacks in the goal. 0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.200 We heard attack that would be the biggest attack since 0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:53.040 you world War two. 0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:57.280 For the first time, Iran is getting specific about what's 0:02:57.400 --> 0:02:58.200 in a deal. 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:03.919 This is the last for them to sign a good documentary. 0:03:04.760 --> 0:03:06.320 I was taking a walk the other night and I 0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:10.639 said to my buddy, look, it's uranus, which Wow, concused 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:12.000 him briefly, Michael. 0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:13.040 It was just it was hanging there. 0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:14.359 Why you had to do it? 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.240 I had to pick it. Uranus was hanging there like 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:24.120 a ripe punk. That is unfortunate. No, see that. No, Wow, 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:27.680 I regret that moment. 0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:31.480 Haven't at all, And now we're rerunning it. 0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:33.440 I thought it was supposed to be highlights, not low 0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:34.280 points of the week. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:35.280 Yeah. 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:42.200 Yeah, you know, if anything, we underplayed the professor who 0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:46.000 believes that children are better judges of their best interests 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:51.080 than their parents. This guy is a law professor at Yale, 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:54.280 America's number one law school, and he's the head of 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:57.200 one of the colleges at Yale, and he's out of 0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:58.400 his effing mind. 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:03.360 Howd that issue poll ninety nine to one? You know, 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.400 I knew somebody who they never went that far, but 0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:10.360 they used to talk all about this was a PhD person, 0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:13.240 very smart, one of the smartest people I've ever known, intellectually, 0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:18.799 and they just talk all the time about they were childless, 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:23.320 people have kids and they're just left to their own 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:25.680 to try to figure out how to do that, and 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:27.600 we need to have a system. I mean, this should 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:30.279 be they should be, you know, taught how to do 0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:32.480 this or anything like that. And always said, yeah, by who, 0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:36.400 I mean your parents or your grandparents or friends, but 0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:38.719 by who, And they they saw some sort of role 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:42.800 for something, you know, the government or whatever, because people 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:44.880 just can't do this on their own. How do you 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:49.800 come to the conclusion that society hasn't figured out a 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:52.320 way now we're kind of trying to destroy it the 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:55.719 way we move around and you know, families not staying 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:57.640 together and all that sort of stuff. But in general, 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:01.479 grandparents know a lot about how to raise kids, or 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:04.320 your parents or whatever. There's a lot of knowledge there. 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:08.760 You don't need the government. And then some agency or whatever, 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:12.960 probably full of people who are childless with ridiculous degrees, 0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:13.960 making the decision. 0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:19.640 And here's where it all comes together. And I remember 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:21.720 this and I regret some of it as a dad. 0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:26.920 Folks who traffic in the world of ideas. 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:28.640 And want to. 0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:33.760 Establish themselves as an original and important thinker. 0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:36.799 They are the most. 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:39.840 Likely to be swept up in something that is utterly 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:43.360 ineffective because they're so in love with being the innovator. 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.160 It's one of the reasons the intellectuals or young college 0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.920 grads or whatever are currently falling for communism and socialism. 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:55.800 For God's sake, it's why they are so dangerous, because 0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:56.880 they have that need. 0:05:57.640 --> 0:05:57.880 Well. 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.839 And I know there are such things as parenting classes 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.000 and stuff like that, and I'm sure there's plenty of 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:05.680 good ones, but I maybe because where I live, I 0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:08.159 know a lot of them that are that whole. Never 0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:10.400 use the word no, because that's gonna give them a 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:12.240 just idiotic like that. 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:16.080 Here's my advice. Go with the old wisdom. 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:20.200 Ask your mom or your grandma whether saying no is 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:21.839 a good idea to a four year. 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.520 Old, and when they stop laughing that they will answer 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:26.200 you yes. 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:30.840 And Yet, who who embraces such a. 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.600 Looney Tunes philosophy of parenting is the so called gentle 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:35.320 parenting thing? 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:36.359 Who does that? 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:45.000 College educated, quote unquote smart people the upper crust. There 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:49.000 are very few coal miners embracing the concept. There are 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:53.400 very few you know, checkers at Target, et cetera. 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:56.000 And just thinking about it. How many adults have you 0:06:56.040 --> 0:07:01.560 ever known that thought? Yeah, my parents, it's never telling 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.640 me no would have been a good idea, or I 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:07.560 sure wish my parents had never said no, or whatever. 0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:10.240 I mean, who as an adult at the end, you know, 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:12.880 once you grow up, ever has a positive thing to 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:14.560 say about that philosophy? I've never heard it. 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.400 Yeah, why it's true exactly, And I'm getting close to 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:19.960 understanding it. I think maybe on my death bet I'll 0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:22.880 figure it out. But for the third time today citing 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:27.360 that C. S. Lewis quote about how if you want 0:07:27.400 --> 0:07:31.520 to get a perverse ideology and a revolution going whatever, 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:36.360 the tough nut to crack is common practical people. The 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:40.360 intellectuals you can get easy. They're they're they're easy to 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:46.120 knock down. They're like a particularly wobbly bowling pin to 0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:48.440 get to go along with your schemes. It's the practical 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:53.040 people that are hard. What that means to humanity, I 0:07:53.120 --> 0:07:57.280 don't know. You know what's interesting and why. One of 0:07:57.280 --> 0:08:01.240 the reasons I'm fairly worshipful of the founding fathers of 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:04.240 this country, and I'm being reminded of a lot of 0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:06.080 their wisdom and the way they looked at the world 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:11.280 through Tim sander first fabulous book Proclaiming Liberty. Is that 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:16.480 they were extremely bright, but probably because of the nature 0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:22.680 of living in the eighteenth century, they're also extremely practical, Like, 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:26.640 you couldn't you couldn't ignore reality for twenty minutes in 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:29.160 the eighteenth century, or you would be eaten by a 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:33.439 bar or waylaid by highwaymen, or dead of some disease 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:37.880 that we cure easily now. So anyway, yeah, because they 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:41.400 were unquestionably intellectuals, I mean, my god, they were incredibly 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:45.079 well educated, but they're also I'm so practical. 0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:46.480 I don't know why this popped into my head. Have 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:50.440 you ever read The Education of Henry Adams? No, he 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:54.160 is in that family line of the Adams family. Do 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:57.960 Do Do Doo with John Adams John Quinfce family? 0:08:58.000 --> 0:08:58.720 I think you're confused. 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.079 Yes, Anyway, there's a seen in there. I'm pretty sure 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:07.520 it's in that book where uh, Henry Adams is like 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.320 throwing a fit and doesn't want to go to school, 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:12.559 and his grandpa, who is John Quincy Adams, just comes 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.120 and grabs him by the hand and pretty much drags 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:17.560 him to the schoolhouse and makes him go to school 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:19.240 and I've always for some reason that pops me in 0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:23.959 at me with such a you know, ah elevated smart 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.720 They all went to Harvard blah blah blah. It was noo, 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.520 you're going to school. What are you talking about? Grandpa 0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:31.199 comes in and says, that's not an option. 0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:38.000 We're going to school right right. I'll bet that Harvard professor. 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:38.880 Would not approve of that. 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:44.680 The child accurately has a better concept of his needs 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.680 and self interest in the parent. I think maybe I've 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:50.280 defined what makes a great person, a great man, a 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:55.400 great woman. They combine enough intellect to be able to 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:59.600 handle ideas and you know, and think about the world 0:09:59.600 --> 0:10:01.920 in a creat of way, but they are not unmoored 0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:02.960 from practicality. 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:03.480 That's it. 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:06.560 I've solved it. Hey, hey, solved philosopher. A wise and 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:07.760 benevolent philosopher team. 0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:08.319 That's what we need. 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:09.120 It's all we needed. 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:10.560 I wish I'd thought of that earlier. 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:12.640 We had to wait till long. 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:14.840 What are you going to do? 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:16.640 So what's the thing you got coming up? You got 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:17.120 something now? 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:22.680 Well, yeah, I was going to talk about Islam, fundamentalist 0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:24.920 Islam and how it's incompatible with the West, which, yeah, 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:26.520 I know, I've talked about it more than once, but 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.360 I've got some new examples and stuff like that. But 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:34.760 there was one particular aspect of the question that I 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:39.000 wanted to uncover, and I ran into a what's the 0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:44.720 best word, like an active disinformation campaign COO, which I 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:48.360 find a thought provoking in really really troubling. 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.760 Cool as a topic, not cool that it's happening. Also, 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:54.760 Greg Guttfeld his comedy routine include a little screen about 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:57.320 how young many working anymore that I thought was really interesting. 0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:58.640 Maybe we'll get to that next day. 0:10:58.520 --> 0:11:01.520 Here Hartstrong Hettie. 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:09.800 So apparently America has a new growth industry to stay 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:10.880 at home boyfriend. 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:12.600 That's right, he's not. 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:17.360 Unemployed, he's between opportunities. We used to have another term 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:20.439 for a jobless dude who refuses to leave home was 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:26.040 loser or if that doesn't work, Jim Acosta what. Meanwhile, 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:29.280 for the third time in American history, women now hold 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:32.199 more jobs than men. In the last year, men in 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:34.920 the workforce fell by one hundred and forty thousand. Meanwhile, 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:37.600 women gained twice that number of the one point two 0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.920 million jobs added between February twenty twenty four and February 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.560 twenty twenty six, two thirds went to women. To fact, 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:46.440 only about sixty seven percent of US men are. 0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:47.640 Even in the labor force. 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:51.800 A full third of men never or barely work. 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:56.040 Those numbers and we've hit those numbers before are shocking 0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.840 and should be a bigger topic of conversation. And I know, 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:00.680 just being out in the dating world, the number of 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:03.360 women to talk about finding a guy who like can 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:07.640 support himself right between can't support himself and can't get 0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:11.400 an erection. It definitely makes your odds better if he 0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:12.800 doesn't do both of those things. 0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:16.880 Well, wow, I'm born proud of myself than I was 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:17.640 when I woke up. 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:21.880 So there was a back and forth. Not too long ago. 0:12:22.040 --> 0:12:25.520 New York Times had an article by a young woman, 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:29.120 a think piece as young Intellectual, was talking about how 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:33.520 her generation Gen Z or whatever they are, millennials something 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:37.560 one of those had given up on work and because 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:42.079 you know, there's no point I know then the reply 0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:45.680 to that, And it strikes me that there are so 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:55.000 many benefits to selling victimhood. Political benefits, media benefits. I mean, 0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:59.400 it's an attractive thing to sell people that it's not 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:01.120 your fault you should give up. 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:02.520 Well, I will take care of you. 0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:05.800 But it used to be the you know Midwestern ork 0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:08.240 ethic or judaeis Christian principles. 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:09.160 It's Calvinism or. 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.880 Something pushed back so hard against that that could never 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:12.480 get started. 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.400 But now it's like it's super popular. 0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:18.360 Well, it can only be popular if it's an option. 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:22.440 Right for all of human history, up until the last 0:13:22.480 --> 0:13:23.280 blink of an eye. 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:24.280 It was not an option. 0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:29.320 How you would have starved to death like by next Wednesday. 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.320 So you were going to figure something out. It's like 0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:34.400 a buddy of mine, I always remember because we were 0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:37.680 listening to the news and that star came up. It's 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.000 like today jobs numbers came out today and they hit 0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:41.920 you with all the numbers.

And this buddy of mine, 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:49.920 who had two kids, he's a mechanic, said, who stops 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:53.280 looking for work? What is that? I've never stopped looking 0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:53.559 for work. 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:54.840 When I have a job, I look for work and 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:55.960 till I find work. 0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.680 Who gets to stop looking for It's for people who 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:02.360 either are unaware of the way to get by off 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:05.520 the taxpayer or are unwilling to live off the taxpayer, 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:07.360 which thank god, has still a lot of people. 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:14.800 But right, right, guys, has fifty seven million men unemployed. 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:18.960 Of healthy working age that just aren't interested in working. 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:23.480 I don't know if that's numbers right, but it's a 0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:27.800 lot on people. We're through here. Well, it's the only 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:31.440 the way I look at the way the world should 0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:34.360 to be structured. And I'm a pretty hard hearted small 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:35.120 government guy. 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:38.119 It sarved the lazy. I have the t shirts. 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:40.600 Starve the lazy. It shouldn't even be an option. You 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:44.640 don't have to deal with it as a cultural, moral, 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:49.720 ethical responsibility. You'd freak and starve, and more importantly, your 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:52.440 kids would starve. And we're kind of built to like 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.600 not let our kids starve, right like, we'll do anything 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:58.760 to keep our kids from starving, which will make you 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.520 take jobs you don't want, or multiple jobs, or getting 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.600 getting new skills, or all kinds of different things will happen. 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.240 There comes a time when the scammers get so good 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:15.480 there's no stop in their scam. I just thought, worry, 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:17.240 sometimes we're at that point in democracy. 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:19.640 Your shame, we need more shame.

If you're of 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:26.280 working age and you're sitting at home living off the taxpayer, 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:28.640 and especially if you've got a family, you should be 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.760 ashamed until you can get out of that situation. 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.600 H Ring the bell, baby shame.

Okay, a 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:19.240 very serious intellectual discussion. Next after that idiotic joke, they stay. 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.800 Boomed, Armstrong and getty. 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:25.760 Do you know about the website brick Center. We'll have 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:27.920 to tell you about that coming up. It's very mean spirited. 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.960 It is mean spirited, Oh I do not know, and 0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:38.080 entertaining and hilarious. Okay, Oh that's unfortunate. So uh, I've 0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:42.840 been trying to figure out how to introduce this, I uh, 0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:45.800 and looking back in my life, they are like three 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:53.360 things that have fascinated me every second since I discovered them. 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:57.200 Number One, the opposite sex. I was gonna say, that's 0:17:57.200 --> 0:17:58.520 got to be on the list. 0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:00.000 Top of the list, number two. 0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:06.600 Music and number three political systems and how they work 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:07.640 since I. 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:08.040 Was a kid. 0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:13.600 My third one origami Wow, a beautiful heart, ancient and beautiful. 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:18.679 But I am absolutely fascinated by different political systems, how 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:21.920 they work in the societies. You can't separate a political 0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:25.120 system from the culture that it takes place in, so 0:18:25.200 --> 0:18:28.440 all that stuff why human beings do what they do. 0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:31.720 And you know, famously, and at the butt of some 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:35.199 terribly unfortunate jokes, fascinated with the rise of the Nazis 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:40.000 in Germany and how a very intelligent, advanced society blah 0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:46.480 blah blah. Just fascinated by that stuff. And Islam political 0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:51.760 Islam is absolutely in the very very top tier of 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:56.320 things to look at if you share my fascination, because 0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:59.720 it's an incredibly powerful force on earth. It may be 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:05.880 the single most powerful force on Earth if you look 0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:09.760 at the number of adherents it has and its effectiveness 0:19:10.680 --> 0:19:13.480 as opposed to say, democracy, which I'm a big fan 0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:18.320 of but is waning in effectiveness and waning in numbers. 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:23.960 So anyway, having said that, and this took a twist 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:24.359 for me. 0:19:24.560 --> 0:19:28.399 As I've mentioned earlier, what you're about to hear is 0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:29.560 a fellow by. 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:30.280 The name of. 0:19:31.840 --> 0:19:32.159 Eddie. 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:36.439 What is his last name, It doesn't matter. He's testifying 0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:40.240 in front of a Texas city council about whether to 0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:44.520 let a five acre Islamic center in in that town 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:48.120 in Texas. He, as he makes clear, is a Christian 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:53.320 refugee from Iran. And we'll play that then discuss a 0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:54.080 couple of things. 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:58.640 Hello, my name is Eddie Sa. I'm a Sharia La 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:01.760 survivor from Iran, and I am here to tell you 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:05.520 this is a dangerous ideology or along in their country, 0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:07.879 every country that is Islamic. 0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:08.760 Now, it used to. 0:20:08.760 --> 0:20:12.080 Be a Christian country, and will we were soft Christians 0:20:12.119 --> 0:20:14.880 and we allowed these people to come in, bring their 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:19.600 shari A law into our countries and slowly kill usself 0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:22.840 left and right. Let me make it very clear to you. 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:27.280 Christianity is a personal relationship with God. Where it's says 0:20:27.920 --> 0:20:30.920 render aund to Caesars. What is Caesars render ond to God? 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:34.159 What is God? Islam is shari a lah dean with 0:20:34.359 --> 0:20:39.199 Dawa religion and states which is not even compatible with 0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:42.200 the American thing. And when they these people will use 0:20:42.240 --> 0:20:45.959 takiya to lie to you, to manipulate you, because whenever 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:48.760 Islam is little, they will lie to you and tell 0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:51.560 you they come in peace. This this is a bad idea, 0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.440 and you're gonna regret not listening to people like us 0:20:54.560 --> 0:21:00.720 who lived under shari Alah. 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:02.240 Wow that response from the crowd. 0:21:03.119 --> 0:21:04.879 Yeah, so I wanted to nail down a couple of 0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:08.920 things before talking about this. First of all, there are 0:21:09.280 --> 0:21:11.639 and different people use different terms, but there are absolutely 0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:15.240 reformed Muslims who view Islam as a personal faith in 0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:19.080 the same way a Lutheran does, of course, roughly different terminology, 0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:22.679 different God, different beliefs. But yeah, many millions. But the 0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:26.840 problem is there are hundreds of millions who don't. And again, 0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:29.960 as a political system of political movement, there is in 0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:35.919 fundamentalist Islam, and that's most Muslims. There's no concept of 0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:43.840 the secular Islam is a is a prescription for everything 0:21:43.880 --> 0:21:47.280 God holds supreme authority, leaving no room for independent human 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:51.080 legislation that contradicts Shariah, the divine law. 0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:53.800 It's your government, it's your justice system at your. 0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:54.959
