Don't a 2 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: way I gets hozan saying you a conscious cell, will 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: all be entire high land a talen and if you 4 00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 1: want a little banging, a union and come. 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: Along Dogress never comes from those satisfied with the failues 6 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 2: of a broken system. It comes from those who want 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 2: to fix the broken system. 8 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: Running as an act is political. And you know who 9 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: taught me that, Tim Walls. The first thing he told 10 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:32,959 Speaker 1: me was that running is a privilege. 11 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 3: In being a part of the running community is a privilege. 12 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 3: In the year. 13 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 2: Twenty twenty five, in America, we are now living in 14 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 2: an oligarchic form of society. 15 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: Freedom is back in style. Welcome to the revolution. We 16 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: have come. 17 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 2: In to your city. 18 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: Doing the way I get thousand saying you a conscious silt. 19 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 2: The New Sean Hennity Show, more the scenes, information on 20 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 2: freaking news, and more bold inspired solutions for America. All right, 21 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 2: thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of you 22 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 2: for being with us. Write down our toll free telephone 23 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: number you want to be a part of the program, 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 2: White Smoke. 25 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: I believe they didn't give us the final number. 26 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 2: It was either the fourth or fifth vote the first 27 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: was it the fourth or fifthland, I don't remember. 28 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: It was the fourth, all right, on the fourth vote. 29 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: And it can happen anywhere between two and usually fifteen. 30 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 2: And anyway, we have a new pope that has been selected, 31 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: the first American born pope graduated from Villanova. He's been 32 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: elected pope and his name is Robert Prevost and he 33 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 2: has taken on the name Pope Lee the fourteenth. A 34 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: very interesting background. And you know half of the Christians 35 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 2: in the world are Catholic. Did you know that, Linda, 36 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: I did not know that. Yeah, half of them. Born 37 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 2: in Illinois nineteen fifty five. Pope Leo the fourteenth graduated 38 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 2: from Villanova bachelor's degree in math nineteen seventy seven. A 39 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: member of the Augustine and I know I'm not saying 40 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: that right religious order, elected the top leader of the 41 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: order twice. In an article about Pravos's selection as cardinal, 42 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: the former head of the province of Saint Thomas of 43 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: Villanova referred to him as. 44 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: As our brother Bob. 45 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: After Villanov he studied a Catholic theological union in Chicago, 46 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 2: was ordained a priest in nineteen eighty two. Before he 47 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: was named a cardinal by Pope Francis in twenty twenty three. 48 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 2: He had held other previously high positions, though, and Boast 49 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: had been a leading candidate except for his nationality. Interestingly, 50 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: it had been a long, you know whatever taboo against 51 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: the US pope, given the geopolitical power already wielded by 52 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 2: the US, I guess in the secular sphere. But anyway, Prayvost, 53 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: it's just interesting. It's just the whole thing was interesting 54 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: to watch unfold. I will tell you the years in 55 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: the Catholic Church for me, twelve years of Catholic school 56 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: were very, very good for me. Gave me a good 57 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 2: spiritual foundational It's so much that I like about the 58 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: Catholic Church. The thing is that the few criticisms. I'm 59 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: not going to bring him up on this day, but 60 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: he's a brilliant guy. He has a doctorate in canon 61 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: law that he got in Rome at the College of 62 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: Saint Thomas Aquinas. Two decades he served in Peru and 63 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 2: became a naturalized citizen, and prior to that he served, 64 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 2: you know, in many different capacities and directly for Pope Francis. 65 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: You know, a. 66 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 2: Lot of people are interested in there were basically three groups. 67 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 2: It's kind of like everything everything's political, right. There were 68 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:20,559 Speaker 2: those that were deemed more conservative, those that were deemed 69 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 2: more in line with Pope Francis. So I thought it 70 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: was very liberal, too liberal for my liking to be 71 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 2: very blunt, and I won't go through the whole conclave. 72 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: If you want us know how conclave actually works, go 73 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: watch the movie. People that actually have been through it'd 74 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: say that process now, it has a kind of bizarre 75 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 2: ending to the story, but putting that aside the actual 76 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: process is kind of akin to what really happens. We 77 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: do know he has said some things on some controversial 78 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 2: issues we know. The New York Times reported in twenty 79 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 2: twelve he indicated that pop culture created quote sympathy for 80 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 2: beliefs and practices that are at odds with the Gospel. 81 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 2: In a speech to bishops, he referred to the homosexual 82 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 2: lifestyle and alternative families comprised of same sex partners and 83 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: their adopted children. On immigration, he it's interesting as a 84 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: bishop in Peru had him work with a lot of immigrants, 85 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: and for The New York Times he was praised in 86 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: the country for efforts to support Venezuelan immigrants. Not talking 87 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 2: about the US, but I believe you're talking about Peru. 88 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: In that interview, the Newsweek could not confirm any details 89 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 2: of his position on any of the conflicts, for example, 90 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 2: going on around the world of Russia Ukraine. Pray boasted, 91 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,119 Speaker 2: you know, long standing ally of the Pope Francis who's 92 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: just passed, and we'll see. I don't think anybody will 93 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: be as influential as Pope John Fall the second, but 94 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,679 Speaker 2: you know, you have high hopes. I think the world 95 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 2: does need a spiritual reawakening in many, many ways. And 96 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 2: that's just my own personal opinion. The President congratulated Pope 97 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: Leo on a selection and said it's such an honor 98 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,239 Speaker 2: to realize that he is the first American pope. He said, 99 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 2: what excitement, What a great honor for our country. I 100 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: look forward to meeting Pope Leo the fourteenth. There will 101 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: be a very meaningful moment for the President. I don't 102 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 2: think a lot of people know that the President, I 103 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 2: can tell you firsthand, is way more of a believer 104 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: than people might think. Well, Hannity, what about all the 105 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 2: alleg I don't want I just please, I can't take 106 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 2: it anymore. Your hatred is getting old and predictable. But 107 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: it was, it was just It's just a fascinating moment 108 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: in history to watch. And I found myself in the 109 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 2: middle of my my, my prep routine today watching way 110 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 2: too much of it. 111 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: Linda, did you find yourself doing the same thing. 112 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 3: I mean, the process is very interesting. You know, some 113 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: of the morning of you know, the previous pope and 114 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: putting him to rest. I thought those were a little 115 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 3: strange As a Catholic, I was like, Eh, that's a 116 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: little weird. But watching the people gather today and he 117 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: actually spoke the Abbe Maria and I just I don't know, 118 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: there were certain things I really liked. I'm not the 119 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 3: biggest fan of him just yet. We'll see. 120 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 2: Oh boy, you mean there's a chance he might end 121 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 2: up on the hate list in the backsliding. 122 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: We'll get to that later. 123 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: He might be a woke pope. 124 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: We shall see. 125 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: I don't think that there's no indication will be a 126 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 2: woke pope, no indication at all. The other big news 127 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 2: of the day. We will spend a lot of time 128 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: on this. The president. And let me backtrack a second here, 129 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 2: not to say that I told you so, but all 130 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 2: the handwringing and all the skittishness on Wall Street and 131 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 2: all of the overreaction because Donald Trump did what Donald 132 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: Trump was elected to do. He ran as a disruptor 133 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: and iconoclassed, won the chatters illusions, and he challenges old 134 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 2: ways of doing things. You know, look at the Iron Dome, 135 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 2: look at energy dominance, deporting illegal immigrants, building a wall, 136 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 2: the Ukraine Mineral deal. Everything he does is out of 137 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: the box. And most everything he thinks about doing is big, 138 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 2: like peace in Europe, at the peace in the Middle East. 139 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 2: I know there are people that just want him to fail, 140 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: just so they could say, oh, you failed, you failed. Well, 141 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: at least he at least he's in there taking a 142 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 2: shot and taking a swing. He's up at bat And 143 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: everybody was freaking out, Oh, there's not going to be 144 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: trade deals. And I kept saying that just be patient. 145 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 2: This is fifty to sixty years of establishment, institutionalized ways 146 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 2: of doing things. And he said, no, it's it's no 147 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: longer time for America to allow systemic ripping off of 148 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 2: our country and being abused and being treated unfairly by 149 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: countries friend and foe alike. And that's when he announced 150 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 2: this big trade deal with the United Kingdom today. I 151 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 2: can't think of a more appropriate day, by the way, 152 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 2: for him to have done this. What is it the 153 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 2: eightieth anniversary, I believe of the end of World War II. 154 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 2: I think it was the perfect day to do it. Interestingly, 155 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 2: even China now is at the table. The deal with 156 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: Great Britain that he announced today will open up British 157 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 2: markets to plenty of American farm products, chemicals, machinery. The 158 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 2: presidents said beef, beef, ethanol, agricultural products are going to 159 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: flood into the UK. The British also agreed to drop 160 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: non tariff trade barriers. In return, the UK will see 161 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 2: new business partnerships with major American companies and receive relief 162 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 2: on sector specific tariffs. US tariffs on British cars will 163 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: be reduced, you know, from twenty seven point five percent 164 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 2: to ten percent for a quota of one hundred thousand 165 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 2: British autos, and steal an aluminum terrace will be slashed 166 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 2: as zero. You know, if the President didn't try that 167 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 2: wouldn't have happened. I reported to you yesterday. You know, 168 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: the widely watched Atlanta Fed. The Atlanta Fed has a 169 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 2: lot of credibility. And we reported yesterday two major developments. 170 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 2: The first was Goldman Sachs and the Atlanta Fed had 171 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: both increased the GDP growth projections of the second quarter 172 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 2: to over two percent. And what was interesting about it 173 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 2: is Goldman revised their growth projection from negative three tenths 174 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 2: of one percent to two point four percent. 175 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,959 Speaker 1: That is a massive adjustment. 176 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: The same day, the Atlanta Fed increased their GDP projection 177 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 2: from one point one to two point two. They doubled it. 178 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: This morning, the Atlanta Fed raised it even higher. They 179 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: came out with a new GDP production projection for this 180 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 2: order are two point three percent. Now this GDP new 181 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: model estimate for real GDP growth in the second quarter. 182 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: Maybe they're maybe they're finally paying attention to what's been happening. 183 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: Eight trillion dollars that has been committed to manufacturings in 184 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 2: the next four years is gonna is real. 185 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: You know. 186 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 2: We announced last night on Hannity the President is leaving Monday. 187 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 2: I will be on that trip reporting. 188 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: Uh. 189 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 2: Going on the trip, We're going to be broadcasting Tuesday, Wednesday, 190 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 2: Thursday next week from Saudi Arabia and Riad. 191 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: Uh. 192 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 2: We'll we will be in Doha, We'll be in Katar Uh. 193 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 2: Then we're going to the UAE and Abu Dhabi and 194 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: we'll be broadcasting from all three of those countries. We're 195 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: going to try and bring you a a front row 196 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 2: seat into what such a big trip is all about. 197 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 2: One of the biggest issues is, you know, look at 198 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: the investment. The UAE has committed one point five trillion 199 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: dollars in investment in manufacturing in the US, Saudi Arabia 200 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: one trillion dollars. Lindsey Grammill join us later says, you 201 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 2: know this, this is the future of business, and they 202 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 2: want to be in business with the United States. Now, 203 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 2: one interesting other thing, you know, people I would expect 204 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 2: after this United Kingdom announcement today that there are going 205 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: to be other countries. Now I know for a fact, 206 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 2: because I've talked to the people involved, that there are 207 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: other countries that are we're very close to announcing trade 208 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: deals with. And you know, when you couple that with 209 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 2: the eight trillion in committed investment between business and other countries, 210 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 2: when you couple that with with the specific industries that 211 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: are investing, it's good for national security. Like we've got 212 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: to build, we've got to manufacture our pharmaceuticals in this country. 213 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 2: We've got to We've got to manufacture our chips in 214 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 2: this country. We can't be reliant on China. They're not 215 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 2: a reliable partner for these these items. We have automotive manufacturing. 216 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: As the President said, we want to make our cars 217 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 2: here in America. Now we can partner with other countries 218 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 2: and their car companies like Honda, Nissan, Hyende, you know, 219 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 2: have all made deals to manufacture their cars and get 220 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 2: their parts from America. Great, that's good for American workers. 221 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 2: And with people being deported, that's going to be less 222 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 2: competition for high paying career jobs. As a story today, 223 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: we'll get to that about how young kids in high 224 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: school are being recruited to be trained in the trades 225 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: and they're starting pay is seventy grand a year. It 226 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 2: makes you really want to rethink college at that point, 227 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: because you know that article I've referred to now a 228 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 2: few times about the next generation of millionaires are going 229 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 2: to be tradesmen. Now, in the lead up to Scott 230 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 2: Bess and the Treasury secretaries meeting in Geneva with China representatives, well, 231 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 2: it's interesting. It seems like an olive branch to me. 232 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 2: Boeing announced that they received orders for more than a 233 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 2: dozen wide body jets from China's state owned airline, and 234 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 2: that order is apparently a calculated gesture of goodwill from 235 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: my interpretation, ahead of these negotiations. On Saturday, and Boeing 236 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: announced that China Airlines has become the newest seven to 237 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 2: seven seven customer, with an order of ten passenger and 238 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 2: four freight airplanes. In addition to the firm order, the 239 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: airline has options to purchase nine more seven seven sevens. 240 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 2: Last month, another Chinese airline delayed the delivery of a 241 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 2: wide body aircraft from Boeing. The delay was suspected to 242 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 2: be part of the non TERRORFF counter measure. I don't 243 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: think it's an accident that it's happening just before this 244 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 2: this meeting is taking place in Geneva this weekend. But 245 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 2: of course, if you look at the mainstream, you know, 246 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 2: state run legacy media mob and just their classic maneuver. 247 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: You know, the New York Times continues to push the 248 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 2: Trump recession hoax. While admitting and the data shows that 249 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: the economy's healthy, they just contradict themselves, and jobless claims 250 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: fell more than expected. And Doug Bergram is warning that 251 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 2: the US could suffer widespread Biden blackouts because of the 252 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: over alliance on green energy. What's stupidity between that and 253 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: what Sean Duffy inherited. I can't believe what Shawn Duffy's 254 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 2: telling us. They they haven't updated a thing that's wrong. 255 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:29,359 Speaker 2: I see that the New Post. I'm sorry, Pope Prevost 256 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 2: apparently has been critical of President Trump, and on the 257 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 2: issue of immigration, that's pretty disappointed. 258 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: Does he not know? 259 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 2: Do people not know how many Americans were murdered and 260 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: raped and victims of violent crime because we don't have 261 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 2: open borders? He says, there's nothing remotely Christian American are 262 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 2: morally defensible about a policy that takes children away from 263 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: their parents and warehouses them in cages. I hope somebody 264 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: might tell the new Pope that the kids in cages 265 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 2: happened under Obama and then later under Biden, because I've 266 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 2: got the video to prove it, and nobody's taking children 267 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: away from their parents. I mean, it sounds like he's 268 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: been indoctrinated into the liberal way of thinking, although he is. 269 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 2: In twenty twelve, we had a different position on the 270 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 2: issue of gay rights. But well, it's it's fairly predictable. 271 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 2: This is the churches has been leaning more left wing, 272 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 2: more left wing. Once tried to criticize JD. Vance as 273 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 2: well for talking about Americans. You know, love God with 274 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: all your heart, and your neighbors yourself. The neighbor's the 275 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 2: person next door, not the person in another continent. I 276 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: twenty five now till the top of the hour, eight 277 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 2: hundred and nine to four one Shawn Isson number. You 278 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 2: want to be a part of the program, all right, 279 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 2: we have a Memorial Day, fourth of July. It's going 280 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 2: to be here before you. You know, flash your eyes, 281 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 2: blink your eyes. And I hope you have your American flag. 282 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: And we live in the greatest, single best country God 283 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 2: gave man. It is for sure, we truly do and 284 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 2: we're truly blessed. And you know what, I'm proud that 285 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 2: I have my American flag. I just got it and 286 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 2: I have. By the way, if you're gonna get a flag, 287 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: maybe not made in China right now, you know, you 288 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: don't want an overseas made American flag, you know, with 289 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 2: freight edges, poor quality. You want a durable flag, a 290 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 2: high quality American flag, one that will truly honor the 291 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 2: day in every way imaginable. One that was hands sown 292 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 2: right here in the USA, in Charleston, in South Carolina. 293 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: I love our friends in South Carolina and by true patriots, 294 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 2: people that love our country. And I'm talking about Allegiance 295 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: flag supply and I'll be flying mine. As a matter 296 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: of fact, Sweet baby James just put it up. He 297 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 2: just put it up. I find out in the wrong location. 298 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 2: Can we change the location now so people can actually 299 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 2: see it? 300 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: Anyway? 301 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 2: You still have time to get yours before Memorial Day. 302 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 2: Now you need to know that is their biggest month. 303 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 2: But you still have time to get yours before Memorial Day. 304 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 2: It look our flag is to be revered. So many 305 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 2: people fought, bled and died fighting under that flag, a 306 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: flag that you know you can be proud of. And 307 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: it's a great gift for family members with Father's Day 308 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 2: coming up, in Mother's Day coming up, with the military 309 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 2: members of your family, they would love this.

I did mention, well, it is 317 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 2: a little bit disappointing. Apparently the new pope, which is 318 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 2: I guess now, Pope Leo the fourteenth, whose name? Who's 319 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: they come out They tell you that his his the 320 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 2: name he was born with in this case Robert Prevost 321 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: and he take he's taken on the name Pope Leo 322 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 2: the fourteenth. But apparently he has been critical of even 323 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 2: though it's the first American pope of President Trump and 324 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 2: his immigration policies and very similar to Pope Francis. And 325 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 2: I'm not really I really have a hard time understanding it, 326 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 2: to be honest, I don't want to get too critical 327 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: on this day where so many Catholics are happy, and 328 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 2: but I wish popes would focus on the mission of 329 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 2: of you know, helping people find salvation in Jesus and 330 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 2: understand the mystery of the Eucharist and and the history 331 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: of the Church, and and you know, understanding that human 332 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 2: beings are mind, body, and soul, and focus on the 333 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: sole part, not the politics part. But in one thing 334 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 2: that he retweeted that there is nothing remotely Christian, American, 335 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 2: or morally defensible about a policy that takes children away 336 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 2: from their parents and warehouses them in cages. Now, you 337 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 2: might recall we tried to get in the middle of 338 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: COVID in early in Biden's term. They were allowing in 339 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 2: all of these unvettered illegals, and they were putting all 340 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 2: these kids in cages, and we sent Sarah Carter and 341 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 2: our cameras down to get images of it, and we 342 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 2: would denied access. And then Senator Ted Cruz was given 343 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 2: access because he is a US senator, and I asked 344 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 2: him if he'd take videos and share them with us, 345 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 2: and that's how that's how those images were made public anyway, 346 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 2: and nobody is taking their children away from their parents. 347 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 2: And under Joe Biden, we're still missing three hundred and 348 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: fifty thousand kids. 349 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: That came into this. We don't know where they were. 350 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: We don't know where they are, I mean, we don't 351 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 2: know how many of them might might have been, you know, 352 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 2: sold into sex slavery for crying out loud and sex 353 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 2: trafficking because we know that goes on and on anyway. Also, 354 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 2: apparently the new Pope has previously shared an op ed 355 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 2: from the National Catholic Reporter entitled jd Vance is wrong. 356 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 2: Jesus doesn't ask us to rank our love for others, 357 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: following comments that the Vice President made on Fox News 358 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 2: in February. 359 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if this was an interview with me 360 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: or not. I don't recall. 361 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 2: During the interview, Van said, there is a Christian concept 362 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 2: that you love your family and your neighbor, and then 363 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: you love your community, and then you love your fellow citizens, 364 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 2: and then after that prioritize the rest of the world. 365 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 2: He's basically saying love everybody. Why is that controversial? Anyway, 366 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 2: the New Catholic Pope shared an op ed saying Van's 367 00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: was wrong. Now, both the President and the Vice President 368 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 2: have gone out very publicly and congratulated the new Pope. 369 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 2: In his position, what is the Bible is very clear, 370 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 2: love God with all your heart, mind, body, and soul, 371 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 2: and your neighbor as yourself. Okay, your neighbor the first 372 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: your neighbor is the people you come into contact with 373 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 2: every day, and that that would if you have to 374 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 2: love your family those are the people your your number 375 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: one responsibility is to take care of your family, but 376 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 2: you got to put God first in your life. 377 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I agree with all of that. 378 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 2: But then the people that you're most likely to need 379 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: to show the most loved to are your family, your neighbors, 380 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: your co workers, your community, your country. 381 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: And there's nothing wrong. 382 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 2: And jd Vance says that then you know, he goes 383 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 2: on to say, and then then you help people around 384 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 2: the world, the. 385 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: American people the most generous people on earth. 386 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 2: I'm not really sure you know how this ends up, 387 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 2: to be honest, it just sounds like more of the same, 388 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 2: very in line with Pope Francis. With all that said, 389 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 2: I it was, it was. Actually it's a special thing 390 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 2: to watch knowing that half the world's Christians are are Catholic. 391 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 2: But I will tell you overall, for me, the Catholic 392 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 2: Church has served me well in my life in many 393 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 2: many ways, more than I can even list, because I learned. 394 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 2: I learned that, I learned about God and the Bible, 395 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 2: and it was instilled in me. My parents made me 396 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: go to church. My parents were very devout and and 397 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 2: until I was able old enough to be able to 398 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 2: you know, get away. I went to the I went 399 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 2: to the early mass. Dad and I went early Meanwhile 400 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 2: he was sleeping. But then I then I went to 401 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 2: Catholic schools for twelve years. I studied theology, I studied Latin. 402 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 2: I went to Mass every day. I love the liturgy. 403 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 2: I love the Eucharist. The last it is the re 404 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 2: enactment of the Last Supper. You know, Jesus said, you know, 405 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 2: take this bread, eat it. This is my body given up. 406 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: For you, you know, gave thanks some phrase. Took the cup 407 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: of wine. 408 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 2: This is the cup of my blood, the blood of 409 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 2: the new and everlasting Covenant. It'll be shed for you 410 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 2: and for all men, for the forgiveness of sins. Do 411 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 2: this in memory of me, which is why the Mass 412 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 2: does that. And when you eat this bread and drink 413 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 2: this cup, you proclaim that the death of Jesus as 414 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 2: your Lord and Savior, sent by God himself, the son 415 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: of God, to reconcile man and their sins, original sin. 416 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 2: We're all sinners, all of sin and fallen short. That's 417 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 2: the whole concept of it, which is in itself great, 418 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 2: you know. But we're as long as I'm on it, 419 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 2: I might as well stay here but my disagreement is 420 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 2: over you know, eleven of the twelve apostles were married. 421 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 2: I learned that in theology in high school, and so 422 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: Jesus chose married men or men to be married that 423 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 2: would be married, and they were Hisscils has chosen twelve 424 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 2: and the first what eleven hundred and twelve hundred years 425 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 2: I don't remember exactly priests were allowed to marry in 426 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 2: the church, I think at that moment. And then the 427 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 2: motivation for changing that policy was probably rooted in the 428 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 2: fact that the church it probably had to do with 429 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 2: financial issues. Everything I've read indicates that it does, and 430 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 2: that the church didn't want to lose money, you know, 431 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 2: with a divorce. I guess pre nups were on his 432 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: common back then, pretty common now. And but my point is, 433 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 2: at that point, I think you took the potential, the 434 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 2: pool of potential priests down to a very low, negligible level, 435 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 2: and that means that the standards then would be reduced. 436 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: You're not having people compete, you know, and having you know, 437 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 2: instead of hundreds of thousands of applicants. You know, now 438 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 2: maybe you're down on with hous it and pretty much 439 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 2: if you have a beating heart. That means you're the 440 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 2: odds are pretty high that you'll make it, and so 441 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 2: and and Sadly, it did attract some some of the 442 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 2: wrong people. And then the church, unfortunately, rather than deal 443 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 2: with the scandal's head on, they at the local level, 444 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 2: the parish level, the bishops, the cardinals, you know, and 445 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 2: all the way to Rome, they never dealt with it appropriately. 446 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 2: In my view, that's that's that's where I feel the 447 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: church went wrong, not on any of the other things. 448 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 2: You know, it's interesting. I'll give you a little bit 449 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 2: of background, Linda. If I'm getting boring on this, tell 450 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 2: me you're not answering, you're not giving me. You're not 451 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 2: giving me affirmation of saying enough is enough? Right, I'm 452 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 2: sure it was such a big part of my life. 453 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 3: Hey, you let us on a cliffhanger, and I think 454 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 3: it would be interesting for the audience to know that 455 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 3: you went to seminary and did all the things. 456 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 2: Okay, So the Catholic Church is founded on Jesus asking 457 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 2: his apostles, who do you say that I am? And 458 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 2: he asked Peter, remember it was his name was originally Simon, 459 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 2: And he said, oh, no, I'm going to call you Peter. 460 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: It was a big part of, you know, the biblical story. 461 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 2: And and Peter was fishing when Jesus met him, and 462 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 2: he didn't catch a single fish. He said, drop you 463 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 2: a net one more time, and he had more fish. 464 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 2: He was able to pay off his debt. And then 465 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: he said, you know, follow me, and I'll make you 466 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 2: fishers of men. But the whole premise of the Catholic 467 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 2: Church is founded on this scripture where you know, Peter, 468 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 2: who who do you say that I am? And he said, 469 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 2: you are the Christ, you are the son of the 470 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 2: Living God. And Jesus's answer was, well, bless and blood 471 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 2: didn't reveal this to you, Peter, My father revealed that 472 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: unto your heart. And it's upon this foundation that I 473 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 2: shall build my church, and the gates of Hell will 474 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 2: not prevail against it. Here's the interesting side of it. 475 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 2: When I studied theology in Latin, Peter means petros, which 476 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 2: means rock. And upon they took it Peter the man 477 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 2: the rock would become the foundation of the church. I 478 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,199 Speaker 2: took it very differently. My interpretation is my own, so 479 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 2: take it for what it's worth that Peter understood who 480 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 2: Jesus was because flesh and blood didn't reveal who Jesus 481 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 2: was to him. That God the Father did. And it 482 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 2: is upon the foundation of having a direct relationship with 483 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 2: God and inner revelation that Jesus, Jesus's church will be built. 484 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 2: Inner discernment called the conscience, it's called the soul. You know, 485 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 2: how many of us, in the course of our lives, 486 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 2: when you do something wrong, you know you're doing something wrong. 487 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 2: You know you listen to the wrong voice, or you know, 488 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: as you get older and more mature and more mature 489 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: spiritually and more disciplined in life, than you make the 490 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: right decisions. That's part of you know, gradually graciously abandoning 491 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 2: the things of youth. So I think the spiritual component 492 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 2: was way more important than than Peter the Rock, the Pope, 493 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 2: Petros and so on and so forth. All right, was 494 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: that worthwhile or not? 495 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: Of course it was. 496 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I think you have a background. You know, 497 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 3: you're basically a theologian. You know, you have a very 498 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 3: very strong background, and you have obviously you know, you've 499 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 3: been committed to, you know, the word of the Lord 500 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 3: for a very very long time. And it's amazing. I 501 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 3: don't think a lot of the audience knows. 502 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: That I don't talk a lot about it. I don't 503 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: proselytize in life.
