This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast. I'm your host Kyle Thompson. Let's get into
0:23
it.
0:24
And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome, but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently
0:29
enduring evil, correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant them repentance
0:34
leading to a knowledge of the truth. And they may come to their senses and escape from the
0:38
snare of the devil after being captured by him to do his will. That is second Timothy
0:42
two 24 through 26. So when we get into our main section about what we're talking about
0:46
today, I want you to keep that scripture in mind. But guys, I do want to remind you that
0:49
the algorithm that basically allows people to find our show. They love reviews and they
0:53
especially love positive five star views. So if you not reviewed us yet on Spotify or on
0:58
Apple podcast, please make sure you do that. If you're following us on YouTube, yeah, subscribe
1:03
yet, make sure you go do that. But again, we love the five star reviews. Leave us a few
1:06
lines why you like this in the algorithms. We'll get this out to more people. Again, we are also
1:10
a listener supported mainly listener supported ministry. So we get some money from advertisements,
1:15
but the overwhelming majority of how we're able to keep the lights on here is because we get
1:18
donations. So if you guys will go to undaunted.life/donate, if you like what we do, if you like what
1:24
content we put out there for you guys, if you like this podcast, if you want to see what go
1:28
further and expand and we've got some crazy stuff coming for 2023 that we need your help with,
1:32
go to undaunted.life/donate. And then again, I'm just going to be announcing this every
1:36
week until we actually get there. But I do have a speaking engagement that's open to the public. So
1:40
if you are going to be anywhere near Edmund, Oklahoma, that's just north of Oklahoma City,
1:45
a faith Bible church on Sunday, September the 18th at 6 p.m. I am delivering my speech
1:50
defeating pro abortion arguments and I'm doing that live. But I do want to say one thing because I
1:54
think I mentioned it a couple of other times on the show, you need if you're going to come and
1:58
you have kiddos, they are going to provide childcare at the church, which is a great blessing for a
2:03
lot of people because I know there are a lot of families that are wanting to come out small groups
2:06
and things like that. But there is a link that I'm putting in the show notes today that if you're
2:10
going to come, you just need to let our church know how many kids you're going to be bringing.
2:14
Okay. So we don't want them to be expecting, you know, 50 kids there and then, you know, there's 400
2:18
kids or something like that, that would be a disaster. So make sure if you plan on coming and
2:21
you're bringing your kids that you let the church know that link is in the show notes
2:25
and didn't want to give a little shout out here. So this isn't what we're talking about today,
2:29
but I did want to give a little shout out to a sermon that I just listened to this morning because
2:32
it was legitimately one of the best sermons I've heard recently. So, you know, obviously,
2:36
I listened to the sermons at my church and then I pick up sermons here and there through podcast
2:40
and YouTube videos or whatever. The pastor, Joby Martin out of Florida. So Church of 11 20. So he
2:45
was on the podcast a few months ago. You guys love that interview. He's going through Psalms
2:48
right now. So I forget how many weeks he's doing. I think it's like 20, 21 weeks or something like
2:52
that. But back in, I believe it was June, week seven of his Psalms series, it's called as the
2:57
deer. So it's obviously talking about Psalm 42. Man, he's normally real, you know, happy and
3:04
jovial and he's still hitting his points and he's still hard going, but this one was more serious
3:08
than any of the other sermon sermons that I've heard him do, but he completely changed, completely
3:13
changed. How I view Psalm 42. Okay. And so I think it's an ultimate. It's just a unique thing for you
3:21
guys. I think you should take that in. So in the show notes today, I've provided a link to the
3:25
Apple podcast one since I know most of you listen to podcasts on Apple podcast, but you can easily
3:29
find it on Spotify and everywhere else you get your podcast. But again, that is Joby Martin's Psalms
3:34
week seven as the deer. So today in the quick hitter segment, we're going to discuss the
3:38
University of central Oklahoma employing a compelled speech mandate, concerning student pronouns,
3:44
Boston Children's Hospital taking heat for castrating and mutilation of children,
3:48
Minneapolis public schools targeting white teachers for termination, flash mobs in California
3:53
trading, dancing in for looting and Serena Williams thinking it's unfair that she's a woman.
3:58
But before we get into the meat of the podcast today, I think I've used that transition before,
4:03
but if I have it, that was a nice one because we need to talk about the sponsor for today's show
4:06
that is Casey cattle company. So guys, there are a lot of meat delivery subscriptions out there.
4:11
I've talked about that a lot before, but there is only one that is US military veteran owned,
4:16
US military veteran operated, and all of their beef chicken and pork products are produced here
4:21
in the United States. There is literally one of those companies and that's Casey cattle company.
4:24
So they specialize in Wagyu beef. So if you've not heard of that before,
4:27
this is kind of a different way of breeding the cattle, but it's known for its mutations
4:31
that allow for like up to 10 times the amount of intramuscular fat, which gives you that
4:35
marbling on that steak or on that roast that you really, really want to get the taste that you want.
4:39
It's it's such it's such good stuff. I just got to tell you like, I got an email this morning.
4:43
Let me see if I can go in here and find I'm literally just going to do this live,
4:45
but I got an email this morning because my next shipment's coming in because they do those monthly
4:49
shipments. And I just want to run down the stuff that's going to be in this shipment.
4:52
So there is going to be Wagyu strip steaks. There's a couple of those. There's Wagyu
4:56
swadero. It's taco meat. I've never really heard that before, but I'm excited to try that.
5:01
Boneless Chuck roast a Chuck I steak or two Chuck I steaks a Chuck plate short ribs. I've never
5:08
made short ribs before, but I'm excited to try that and give that a go red, white and boom Berkshire
5:12
pork brought worse. I love brought worse and then some Berkshire Porter house pork chops. And so
5:17
like I haven't made a whole lot of pork chops either. So I'm going to have to like really kind
5:20
of bone up on on the stuff that I'm doing to make sure that I can get all this squared away.
5:24
But guys, they sell everything a lot of stuff that I mentioned. But again, it's Wagyu steaks,
5:27
Wagyu roast, pastor aged chicken, pastor aged Berkshire pork, Wagyu bacon, cheeseburger,
5:32
brought worse and guys. I just got to tell you, their world famous Wagyu gourmet hot dogs. I just
5:37
had them here recently and I gave them to my kid. And I mean, like it doesn't make sense.
5:41
It literally doesn't make sense when you're eating it because food and wine named it, you
5:44
know, the best hot dog in the world. And that's fine because, you know, they could have been paid
5:47
off to do that or maybe they're stupid. But it literally doesn't make sense why you're eating
5:51
it because it's been called a tube steak. But that's exactly what it tastes like. It's like,
5:54
I'm looking at a hot dog, but I'm tasting a steak. It literally does not make any sense.
5:58
But you guys have got to go out and try their products. So guys go to kc cattle company.com
6:03
that will be in the show notes kc cattle company.com use the promo code Kyle to get 15% off your order.
6:09
Again, the promo code is just my first name, Kyle. That's ky le for 15% off your order at kc cattle
6:15
company.com. So now let's go and get into the meat of the show. And that is a pro lifer,
6:21
calmly dismantling Joe Rogan. Okay. So you probably seen this because everything kind of went viral
6:26
in and around this thing. But the pro lifer I'm talking about is the CEO of the Babylon B and
6:31
his name is Seth Dillon. And the subject matter that he calmly dismantled Joe Rogan on was the
6:36
subject of abortion. So this was on Tuesday, August the 16th, Seth Dillon CEO of the Babylon
6:41
B appeared on the biggest podcast in the world, the Joe Rogan experience. It is episode 1857 on
6:46
Spotify. So you can go check that out. That's in the show notes as well. But they talked about a
6:50
lot of stuff. The main thing that he was on there for is because obviously the Babylon B has been
6:54
banned from Twitter for a tweet where they were they looked at Levine, you know, the dude that's
7:00
dressing up as a woman that works for the Biden administration, Rachel Levine, they named him the
7:06
their man of the year or something like that. It was just kind of like this funny tongue-in-cheek
7:09
thing because it was after I believe the USA today had him as a finalist for woman of the year.
7:14
So I thought that that was very interesting, very funny. Twitter thought it was hate speech.
7:17
And so they're demanding that the Babylon B take down that tweet before they can come back on the
7:22
platform and they were refusing to do so. So they spent a lot of time talking about that,
7:26
a lot of time kind of talking about what's going on in the world. And so I was excited to listen to
7:31
that episode. But before I listened to it, there was a clip that Lila Rose from Live Action, who's
7:37
been on the show a couple of times, she tweeted out this three minute little segment of their
7:41
discussion. And this three minute little segment of their discussion went mega viral. I mean,
7:46
that little video has been viewed over a million times in less than a week. And so it was a clip
7:52
of their discussion about the issue of abortion, pro-life versus pro-choice. Now, this clip is edited
7:58
for time, not for content. So if you look at it, there are some transitions. So it's like, oh,
8:04
I wonder if they took this out of context. Guys, you can listen to the entire interview. If you
8:08
listen to everything and listen to all these different things, that's inside that conversation,
8:12
nothing changes about the meat of the conversation. Okay. So in the entire interview, you can see how
8:17
they went back and forth if you go and view it fully. So what I want to do here on this podcast
8:21
is I want to do a breakdown of this clip. Okay, I'm going to go piece by piece on this three minute
8:27
clip to show you literally the masterful job that Seth Dillon did during this part of the interview.
8:34
Okay, because the most of the interview is fun. It's certainly worth your time again. I'm
8:38
a big Joe Rogan fan. I disagree with a bunch of stuff that he says and a bunch of his worldviews.
8:42
But we're going to go ahead and get into this video here. So come along with us.
8:45
You don't have the right to tell my 14 year old daughter, she has to carry her rapist, baby.
8:51
You understand to look at that woman in the eye who who was the one of them. Do you understand
8:54
that? That's a 14 year old child. I do a 14 year old child gets raped. You say that they
8:59
have to carry that baby. So right here from the very, very beginning, Rogan immediately goes to
9:05
the exception of the exception of the exception scenario. Okay. So rape, right a girl, a 14 year old
9:12
girl impregnated by a rapist. Okay. Now one thing that I've seen here recently guys is that more
9:17
and more pro abortion people, especially since the job decision came down, they are starting
9:22
their arguments from there, which is very, very interesting because used to, and perhaps I'm
9:28
missing this, but I don't think so. A lot of these other debates started in other places, right?
9:32
You know, a woman's right to choose my body, my choice. You know, you only care about the baby
9:37
before they're born, you know, just different places, no uterus, no opinion. But now it starts,
9:42
well, what about rape and incest? Like pro abortion people are leading with that in commercials
9:48
and campaign ads and all these different things. Like that's where it's starting. And that's where
9:52
a lot of the misinformation begins with a lot of these things because we're seeing tens of millions
9:56
of dollars dumped into the midterm elections, which we'll talk a way more about that just basically
9:59
putting out abortion, misinformation, disinformation, but literally they kick off Joe Rogan kicks off
10:04
this abortion discussion by going right to that point, which is a very, very disingenuous argument
10:10
because again, if you did what Ben Shapiro does and you just basically put him to a decision
10:14
and say, okay, well, we'll allow abortion in the cases of rape and incest, but then all the other
10:20
99% of abortions are going to be made illegal. Are you okay with that? And a guy like Joe Rogan
10:25
would never, never, ever go for that. Okay, back to the clip here. I don't think two wrongs make a
10:30
right. I don't think I don't think murder is an answer to I don't think murder fixes a rape.
10:35
So this was a perfect response at this point in the discussion. I don't think murder fixes a rape.
10:41
I don't think murder fixes a rape because when you have someone bring up that, you know,
10:47
exception of an exception of an exception scenario, you have to say like, you know, wait a minute,
10:52
like adding a murder to a rape doesn't get rid of the rape. But you know, we've talked about this
10:57
with the guys in 40 days for life. They've talked to so many of these women that had abortions
11:01
after they were raped. And now that woman has two macabre anniversaries in her life. The first
11:06
is the anniversary of the date that she was raped in the second. It was the anniversary of
11:09
the date that she murdered her child, right? And you can tell at this point that Joe Rogan is getting
11:14
very, very agitated, right? He's getting very, very agitated enough to where he's interrupting
11:19
Dylan to where he's just doing everything he can to talk over him. Okay, so keep that in mind
11:24
as we keep this going here. What if we're talking about an abortion when the fetus literally it's
11:31
like six weeks, four weeks, three days? What if she just turned positive just now positive for
11:37
pregnancy? I don't know. Well, I just disagree that what if it just happened to you can like draw
11:41
a line on when you can't. So you can't do that. The very moment. So again, right here, you can
11:47
barely hear what Dylan's saying because Joe Rogan's talking over him. But he says that once this
11:52
is what Dylan's saying, he says that once life has begun, you can't just draw lines, right? This
11:58
is an argument that a lot of pro-life people have made is like, okay, what line is it okay
12:02
to kill this baby, right? You have to draw the line somewhere. So when you say, oh, you know,
12:07
12 weeks of gestation, so you're literally telling me that this thing is somehow more valuable at the
12:12
12-week anniversary date of gestation than 11 days or sorry, 11 weeks, six days. Like what changed?
12:20
What magically changed here, right? And they can't give you an answer, but they usually just kind of
12:26
throw their hands up and say, well, you got to draw a line somewhere. And like, well, why draw it?
12:30
Why they're still in the womb? Why can't you draw draw that line even after they've been born?
12:34
Because again, like I've got a two year old and a five month old, would my life be a lot easier if
12:39
I didn't have them? Yeah, well, why can't I have that same opinion about their life or death as I
12:46
could have had and my wife could have had when they were in the womb? They can't answer that.
12:51
Like they literally don't have a cogent answer for that. All right, back to the clip here.
12:55
I would lay it out like this. I would say it is wrong to intentionally kill an innocent human
13:01
life. Abortion intentionally kills an innocent human life. Therefore, abortion is wrong. And I
13:06
don't think any of the, I don't think any of the examples of like, Oh, well, how developed is it?
13:10
You know, can it, can it think? Is it conscious? Can it dream? Can it feel pain? So for you,
13:14
it's the moment of conception. If it's a human life, an indistinct human life, then I think it's
13:19
wrong to end its life. So that is the pro abortion argument. You've heard it said a few different
13:24
ways. I think I've couched it and said it a few different ways as well. But this is exactly what
13:28
he said. So I'll read it verbatim his quote. It is wrong to intentionally kill an innocent human life.
13:33
Abortion intentionally kills an innocent human life. Therefore, abortion is wrong.
13:38
And the funny thing is when I see people bring this up like this, this logic and kind of this
13:43
way of thinking, pro abortion people can't really destroy any part of that argument. Because everyone
13:49
that has a functioning brain that isn't completely evil would say, yeah, it's wrong to kill innocent
13:54
human life. Yeah, and abortion intentionally kills an innocent human life. Therefore, abortion is
13:59
wrong. That's the only argument that these people have is they go into saying, well, it's not a
14:05
human life yet. Well, it's not viable yet. Well, it's not valuable yet, which is a crazy place for
14:12
them to argue from. But it's what they do. So back to the clip. And so you think that even once,
14:18
do you think that they're like, once the conception happens, there's some sort of a miraculous event,
14:22
like at the very moment, like you could literally get to the point where the sperm cracks the egg.
14:28
If you could scoop that egg out right there, would that be abortion?
14:31
Well, I mean, at some point, you're going to have to say there was a magic moment that happened
14:35
because you believe that we eventually become valuable humans, right? Well, listen, where's the
14:39
moment where you think the magic happened? So a little bit of a weird clip in the original clip.
14:44
So it kind of clip that off at the very end, but it says, where do you think the magic happened?
14:48
Okay. So there's some good and there's some bad here. Okay. So I've been with them. He's been
14:52
doing great this entire time, but I'm going to be a little bit critical here. So when Joe asked him,
14:57
if it wasn't abortion, if you could scoop out that one celled zygote, you know, created after
15:02
the one celled sperm meets the one celled egg and they come together to create a one celled zygote,
15:07
Seth didn't just say yes. And he should have. He should have said, yes. So I didn't think that
15:13
was very good. So he kind of, you know, moved it around a little bit, but then he got to the good
15:18
part, what I thought was good. And he said, where's the moment where you think the magic happens?
15:22
But he kind of, you know, it took him a while to kind of circle the drain before he got to that
15:26
point. And guys, just a little, you know, quick aside, when you're in these conversations with
15:30
people, it's very easy for people that are not a part of the conversation to later,
15:35
look at you and say, Oh, you should have said this or you should have done that. Why didn't you say
15:38
this? Have you ever read a book? Have you ever done this? Have you ever done that? So, you know,
15:41
I'm being critical of a guy that was in the middle of a conversation. So I'm just kind of breaking
15:45
this down for your sake. Because I remember when I went on Mike Ritlin's podcast about a year ago,
15:49
people were like, we talked for three hours and we spent probably an hour, hour and a half of
15:53
it talking about God. And you know, this is a guy that doesn't believe in God and all that.
15:56
And the only people that got mad at me, I've talked about this before were Christians.
15:59
They're like, well, why didn't you use this apologetic technique? And why didn't you
16:02
quote this? And why didn't you do that? And blah, blah, it's like, well,
16:05
because I was in the conversation and you got to hear the words that I said and the words that he
16:10
said, but you weren't in our brains thinking about where this was going to go and where we wanted
16:15
the land and what we talked about before the microphone started recording and after the microphones
16:19
were turned off, you weren't there for that. So I'm very sensitive to that fact. But I just kind
16:25
of get back to my commentary here. When you ask Joe, where's the moment where you think the magic
16:30
happens? Okay. And if you go back, because it doesn't do it in this clip, if you go back to the
16:35
episode, he can't really give an answer. Because if you give an answer, you're giving away the fact
16:40
that you really, really don't believe in biology. Because the only place in the universe where
16:44
DNA sprouts out of nowhere is when that one celled sperm touches the one spelled egg and they become
16:49
by and become a one celled zygote. All of your DNA in that exact moment is there. Nothing changes.
16:54
You are a living human at that point. That is a living human because cell division is taking place.
17:00
Cell repair is taking place. Metabolism is taking place. All that stuff is taking place that only
17:06
happens in living things. Okay. But again, even someone like Joe Rogan, who would purportedly
17:12
say support the science and believe the science and do all those different things. Let's go back
17:15
to the biology. He can't argue based on biology because that doesn't work for him either. Right.
17:21
So a little bit of good, a little bit of bad in that segment. But we'll get back into this one
17:24
here. This is a fairly lengthy quote that we'll let you get into here. So back to the clip.
17:28
When we start talking about harmful misinformation and the types of things that are considered,
17:32
like that I say or that we tweet or the jokes that we make that are considered harmful misinformation,
17:36
I'm like, well, what about what about calling that baby a clump of cells? I think that's harmful
17:40
misinformation because then you're encouraging people to kill it like it's nothing when it's
17:44
actually a human life. It's a developing human life. I think abortion is health care
17:48
the way that rape is love making if we want to if we want to use rape as an example. I think it's
17:52
I think they're opposites and it's like these are euphemisms that we use. You know, we use the
17:59
word health care. We're talking about a procedure that ends an innocent human life and we're calling
18:03
it health care. That's like calling rape love making. And this is why it's such a human issue
18:09
because I see what you're saying. Abortion is health care the way that rape is love making.
18:16
I mean, guys, that is legitimately. I'm not being hyperbolic here. That is legitimate legitimately
18:21
considering the context. One of the greatest quotes I've ever heard. Okay. And it's so, so,
18:26
so true. The only thing I wish he did is I wish he didn't say it again. It's kind of like when
18:30
people say a joke and no one really laughs. They say it again, assuming that everybody wasn't listening.
18:34
It's like, I think he should have just left it the first time, but I understand why he said it
18:38
again. But abortion is health care the way that rape is love making. That is absolutely true.
18:42
Because when people hold up these signs and where the t-shirts that say abortion is health care,
18:45
it's like, what are you talking about? Like, how is it healthy to destroy a human life?
18:50
Same thing that you could say about, you know, these hospitals, which we'll talk about here in a
18:54
second that are chopping off healthy breast tissue and body parts from children and calling it health
19:00
care so that they can somehow have a better trans identity. Okay. But one thing to notice
19:06
towards the end of this little clip is the entire tone of the conversation shifts virtually at this
19:11
moment. Again, go watch the entire interview. The entire tone of this particular segment
19:16
shifts at that moment. You could even hear it in Joe's voice, right? And so this, you know,
19:20
effects as we get into the last clip here, which we'll go ahead and get into now.
19:23
Life is valuable. Like, yes, and people have almost were the victims of abortion, and they weren't.
19:31
They went on to become these amazing people and we would have lost them.
19:34
Sometimes it's a failed abortion. Like, there's people who survived like a saline abortion and
19:39
they had their damages result of it, but they, but they lived and now they're born. They usually go
19:45
on, ironically enough to become pro-life activists. Oh, that's crazy. Yeah. That's wild. But it makes
19:53
sense. I mean, if that's what made you, wouldn't you be a pro-life activist? Probably wouldn't be.
19:57
So did you catch that? There was something very, very subtle there. It wasn't even in my notes.
20:02
It was whenever I was listening back to it just now. Joe Rogan said victims of abortion.
20:06
What does he mean by that? That would have been a great time for Seth Dillon to ask him.
20:11
Like, hey, what did you mean by victims of abortion? If abortion is health care,
20:16
how can there be a victim? Because like, if I were to roll my ankle and go into the doctor
20:20
and they treat me for this rolled ankle, who's the victim exactly? Me?
20:25
Them? I'm not a victim of health care. I'm a beneficiary of health care. So I would have asked
20:30
him, you know, what do you mean by victims of abortion? Because again, you know, within a typical
20:34
abortion scenario, two people walk into the doctor's office, the woman and her baby, and only one of
20:39
them walks out. So what victim are you talking about? But one thing that Dillon gets him to do
20:44
is he gets Joe to admit that life is valuable. And I say that like he was withholding. But
20:50
obviously Joe knows that human life is valuable because he values his own life. I assume he values
20:55
the life of his wife and his daughters. But you get him to admit it in this discussion about abortion.
21:01
That's not an insignificant thing. But I do think that this was also a missed opportunity
21:06
for Dillon to ask Joe Rogan. Why is life valuable? Why? Why should it be protected?
21:14
And you know, when do you Joe Rogan think it's worthy of our protection as a society? Because that's
21:21
what the laws of the land are for for the protection and flourishing of its people inside of its
21:27
populace, right? And again, I thought, you know, he did an amazing job here overall. And there are
21:34
a lot of takeaways. But I love at the end of this clip that it ends with Joe Rogan agreeing that you
21:42
would 100% end up as a pro life advocate advocate if you were saved from abortion. And again, just
21:48
his language, like it's just so interesting. I think there's some internal struggle here,
21:52
but I want to go into my takeaways from this clip. So I have six takeaways, mainly from this clip.
21:57
Here's the first one. It's amazing how a conversation about a controversial topic can go
22:02
if you keep your cool. So when I teach about the abortion subject, and I'll do so, you know,
22:08
at Faith Bible Church in Edmondel in September the 18th, you guys should come out. The first person
22:13
to lose their cool loses. The first person to raise their voice loses because you just need to sit
22:20
on the fact like if you think your position is correct, you shouldn't have to yell it to convince
22:26
people to come to your side, which comes into the next takeaway, which is it's amazing how good
22:31
the pro life side of the argument is if you don't let your own personality or immaturity get in the
22:37
way, because guys, I've been the worst about this over the years when I would get into a debate with
22:42
somebody, whether in person or on social media, which I completely don't do anymore, like I would
22:46
get so fired up. Like from from jump, I'd go from zero to 100 super fast and just jump into the
22:53
argument would be offensive and you know, just try to bull them over. And it was like, I was right
22:58
in a lot of those scenarios, but you would never know it by looking at it. Or even if you knew it
23:02
intellectually that I was right, you'd be like, God, Kyle is just really acting like a jerk during
23:05
that entire situation. It's like, yeah, yeah, I get it. But the pro life side is the moral side.
23:12
Protecting the most innocent humans on this planet, which are humans that are inside their mother's
23:16
wounds is the right position. People on the left love to talk about, Oh, you want to be on the right
23:21
side of history? It's like, how could you be more so on the right side of history than protecting
23:25
the unborn? They don't see it that way, but they should. And hopefully they do someday we should
23:30
all certainly be praying for that. And the next takeaway I have here is that Joe Rogan clearly
23:36
hasn't talked to many people that are genuinely pro life, because there are a lot of people that
23:41
are squishy pro life. And I've talked about that on the show. I try to disabuse you a lot of the
23:45
notions that would lead you to believe that there are certain positions and times and scenarios where
23:50
it's okay to murder a, you know, baby in the womb. And I've again, I've disabuse you guys of all
23:55
those different things. But you can just tell on how Joe Rogan is talking to Dylan that he just
23:59
he doesn't really interact with pro life people. It doesn't really happen very often.
24:03
Which leads to my next point, which is that Joe Rogan clearly has not fully thought through his
24:09
views on the abortion issue. Because again, if you go to the exception of the exception of
24:14
the exception scenario of rape or incest, right from the beginning, it shows that you're a slogan
24:19
nearer, right? That you can see a slogan and then put that into your mental role effects and pulled
24:25
out when you feel like you need it. That's where he began. You don't need to begin there
24:30
if you have a genuine understanding of your position. Now, there is not really a tenable
24:35
position on the pro abortion side of things. There just isn't. But you can just tell by the way he's
24:39
talking about the issue that he really hasn't thought it through. Another takeaway here, we'll
24:44
do a couple more and then we'll move on. I think on the abortion issue, you know, as have, as has
24:50
already happened with many other issues, that Joe's opinion can be swayed to the pro life side,
24:57
okay? I think it can be, but we'll just kind of have to see if it's actually going to be that way.
25:01
Because Joe Rogan is a guy that describes himself as highly liberal. I'm liberal in just about
25:05
everything. And yet he didn't want to stay in the liberal bastion that is California.
25:10
He moved to Texas. Why? Because of liberal policies in the state of California,
25:16
which led to rampant homelessness, out of control, taxation, the COVID lockdowns,
25:22
all these different things. Then he moves to Texas, a red state, and he moves to a deep blue dot in
25:27
a red state. But he also goes there and he's enjoying all the things that were the opposite
25:32
of what he left. And again, he's a purported liberal. But again, this guy is, you know, he wants
25:38
to legalize all drugs. He's he's pretty good with open borders and immigration. But then he's also
25:42
like pro gun and pro hunting and all these different things. So he's kind of this mixed bag. And so I
25:46
think part of that mixed bag could be this issue. Because he very easily mentioned in this whole
25:53
thing that, you know, basically there are victims of abortion. And it's not the woman getting the
25:57
abortion because her body is just the setting for the abortion. The abortion only takes place
26:01
to the baby that's inside of her. It's not the woman's, you know, body parts that are being ripped
26:04
to pieces. It's the babies, right? And he also admitted that life was valuable. And you could see,
26:10
again, Seth Dylan being very calm and almost like slowly pulling him towards the pro life
26:16
side of this particular argument. I thought it was fantastic. But the last thing here on this,
26:21
this whole deal is that we must all, and I mean, I literally mean all of us, we must stand ready
26:27
to give a sound measured God honoring apologetic for the pro life viewpoint, if put in a similar
26:37
situation. Now what I mean by similar situation is not on a podcast show in Austin, Texas,
26:43
that is going to be heard by tens of millions of people. Because literally there are only a handful
26:49
of human beings that will ever be in that situation. The situation that I'm talking about that similar
26:54
is whenever you are eyeball to eyeball with somebody that is pro abortion or somebody that is somewhere
27:00
between the extreme left of the pro abortion side and the extreme right of the pro life side,
27:05
which is where I'm at, right? Abortion should not be legal for any reason whatsoever. Okay.
27:09
If you have somebody that's in between those two extremes and you hold to a significant pro life
27:15
position, you've got to be able to give an apologetic for that. You've got to be ready to give your
27:20
arguments. Now, that doesn't necessarily mean that you have the personality to go out and seek those
27:25
arguments. Just walk up to random strangers on the street and start up that conversation.
27:28
But perhaps that is you, right? But if you're not ready with these arguments, then when you get
27:34
in that position, you will fall to the level of your preparedness. We talk about that all time with,
27:39
you know, concealed carry people or people that fight or, you know, jujitsu or whatever,
27:43
like when you're in that kinetic situation where you need to defend yourself for your loved ones,
27:47
you're going to fall to the level of your training. You're not all of a sudden going to rise to the
27:50
occasion because you bench press once a week, right? So guys, I'm going to just repeat that
27:54
point and then we'll move on. We must all stand ready to give a sound measured God honoring apologetic
28:01
for the pro life viewpoint if put in a similar situation. All right, guys, let's dig into the
28:07
quick hitter segment. Here's the first one. I'm excited and not excited about this one as well.
28:11
But I thought about making this the entire, you know, thing that I would talk about at the beginning
28:15
of the show, but then the Joe Rogan stuff came up and I didn't want this to linger any longer.
28:19
I've been sitting on this one for a few weeks, but the University of Central Oklahoma employs
28:22
a compelled speech mandate concerning student pronouns. Okay. So for those of you that are not
28:27
aware, if you've not been listening to this podcast for a length of time, I am a graduate of the
28:31
University of Central Oklahoma. Okay. So that is the third largest university in the state of
28:35
Oklahoma. Whenever I went there, there were about 17,000 students. I think they're around, you know,
28:39
15, five or something like that right now. So a very large public institution here in the state
28:44
of Oklahoma. I loved my time while I was there. I was like, Mr. UCO, right? Like I was synonymous
28:49
with school spirit and support for the university. And no, we don't wear, you know, other schools,
28:54
you know, shirts when we're on campus here because we're Broncos and blah, blah, like all that.
28:57
That's the guy that I was even after graduation. I would constantly get pulled back to campus
29:02
to do stuff with the athletic department or do stuff with the communication department,
29:06
which is where I got my degree from or the MBA program, which I was on the board there or the
29:10
alumni association, which I was on the board with them as well. But then whenever they got a new
29:15
president, and so the new president is named Patty Newholed Ravica Marr. I was familiar with
29:19
Patty. She was just Patty Newholed at the time whenever she was one of the people working on
29:24
campus. But then she was hand selected to be the president of the university. Okay. And so
29:31
something you need to know about her. She's young, she's smart, but she's also a lesbian. So she checks
29:35
some intersectional boxes, a woman and a lesbian. So hence the last name, Newholed Ravica Marr,
29:40
like her wife is someone named Ravica Marr, but she was placed in the power. And I have it on good
29:47
authority that this lady was not in the final running for the title of being president of the
29:56
university, but that she was selected over all the finalists that were chosen by this entire big
30:01
committee, but she was selected to become the president of the University of Central Oklahoma.
30:05
Now, my ideas as to why that is having not been in the room for these discussions is because it
30:11
was the first female president of the unit or of the University of Central Oklahoma. She could
30:15
also check the other intersectional box box of being LGBTQ plus, you know, because she's a lesbian,
30:20
that that was going to be a big boon for the campus. And she was young. So she could be the
30:24
president for the next 30 years. But for me, it's like, look, I love you, CEO. I have some
30:29
misgivings about what she may do, but I don't know her well enough personally to know which
30:33
direction she's going to push the university in. So while I was on the MBA program board,
30:36
while I was on the Alumni Association board, I'm like, okay, I'm just going to chill and watch
30:40
and see what happens. But then there have been a lot of things that have been not a left word
30:45
lurch for the University of Central Oklahoma, but a sprint towards the left of all these different
30:50
social issues. So a member of the UCO faculty staff reached out to me probably four or five
30:56
weeks ago now and said, Hey, have you heard about the UCO's chosen names and pronouns policy?
31:03
And I immediately rolled my eyes and I was like, I knew there was a reason why I left all the boards
31:08
and basically have distanced myself from the university is because of crap like this. But then
31:13
this individual sent me the document itself. Okay, so I'm going to put the document. If I can figure
31:18
out how to put a PDF in the show notes or something like that, I'll make sure you guys have access
31:22
to the entire document. But this is the University of Central Oklahoma chosen names and pronouns
31:26
documents. So it's a couple of pages long, but I'm just going to look at a couple of sections.
31:30
So if you are somewhere safe or you can look at the PDF as I go through it, you can go ahead and
31:33
pull that up. But I'm going to get into it here. So the first thing is the introduction. So here
31:37
it is. The University of Central Oklahoma affirms the right of students and employees to be addressed
31:43
and be known by the given first names and the pronouns that they choose to express their identity.
31:49
So obviously the given first names part like, yeah, like, you know, my son's name is James. But
31:54
if at some point he wants to go by Jim or Jimmy, okay, well, that's, you know, a chosen first name.
31:58
Like, I'm assuming we're going to continue calling Elijah squish inside this house,
32:02
but he's probably not going to be going to be called that when he's a senior in high school.
32:05
He'll probably go by Eli or Elijah at that point, you would think, right? But then it's the pronoun
32:09
side. Okay. And the pronouns that they choose to express their identity. So no mention of the
32:16
pronouns that are appropriate concerning their biology, but the ones that they choose. So that's
32:21
the introduction. So part two, it's called scope. So it's just one sentence here. This policy is
32:26
intended to apply to all university databases and electronic records and interfaces and or on and
32:33
after the effective date of this policy. Okay. So that's kind of the IT side of this. So there's
32:37
the, you know, diversity department, and then there's the IT side. So I'm going to skip over
32:41
section three and go to section four. And this is the policy statement. So this is where the rubber
32:45
really starts to meet the road. The University of Central Oklahoma, UCO, affirms the right of
32:50
students and employees to be addressed and to be known by the given first names in the pronouns
32:55
that they choose to express their identity. UCO upholds this right by providing both students and
32:59
employees with the opportunity to designate their chosen given first name and pronouns
33:04
through an online self service option accessible to all students and employees chosen names and
33:09
pronouns as designated through this online self service option will appear in all publicly accessible
33:15
and in most restricted fields in the university's databases and systems so that systems users will
33:20
see displayed the students or employees chosen name and pronouns. It is not necessary for students
33:26
or employees to change their names legally in order to designate a different chosen name or
33:31
pronoun to display within these systems. So the rest of it, I for this next section, I don't really
33:37
care about it, but is that interesting there at the end there? It is not necessary for students or
33:41
employees to change their names legally in order to designate a different chosen name or pronouns
33:46
to display within these systems. So the name thing, obviously, like, if you want to change
33:50
your name, but you haven't really got it on your license yet, like I understand that,
33:53
but the pronoun thing is interesting because currently in the state of Oklahoma, there's not
33:56
a third option on your driver's license. It's male or female. X is not an option. Unknown is
34:02
not an option. Like element op is not an option. Okay. So it's interesting that they worded it
34:08
that way. I'm sure they thought it was subtle, but it was like a loud, you know, banging drum for
34:12
me. So we're going to skip down a little bit to a section called the following restrictions apply
34:16
to the designation of chosen given first names and pronouns. So let me read this here.
34:21
Students may designate newly chosen names and or pronouns at their discretion, but newly chosen
34:28
names and or pronouns chosen after the beginning of the semester may not be reflected or printed on
34:33
class roll sheets and other documents prepared by instructors at the beginning of the semester.
34:38
Okay. And this is very, very important. This is probably the most important part right here.
34:41
In these cases, students should notify their instructors that they have designated newly chosen name
34:48
and or pronouns that were not included on beginning of the semester class rosters
34:54
and course sites. Okay. Now, the reason why that's probably the most important section
35:00
is because what if the professor refuses? So let's take a scenario. Let's say in the middle of
35:08
semester. So I walked in as Kyle, you know, he, him pronouns, but in the middle of the semester,
35:14
which is not going to be reflected in the databases or in the role, I say, I'm Carla and my pronouns
35:20
are now her, uh, hers or whatever. She her, whatever. What if the professor refuses to call me Carla?
35:29
Or if they say, Hey, I don't really kind of like how I am. I don't care what you say your name is.
35:34
I'll call you by, you know, your chosen given name that you want to be called by, but I'm not
35:39
going to say something that is untrue. Like referring to a he as a her. Why is that missing?
35:46
There's something missing in here. What if they refuse to do so? So I'm going to get into the last
35:54
section here and then we'll get into some more commentary. So this is the last section before
35:58
the technical standard, which I'm going to ignore because that's just basically it.
36:02
Students and employees may select pronouns from the list provided in the online self service
36:06
option described above. Now, I immediately thought when I read that sentence, guys,
36:11
well, there's an ever expanding list of pronouns. So what if theirs aren't listed? Well, they address
36:15
that immediately. Students and employees who wish to select pronouns that are not available through
36:19
the online self service option may request that additional pronouns be added to the list of
36:24
available options to make a request of this sort. The student or employee should contact
36:29
the university's office of inclusive community. Yes, that is a real office. And that is an inclusive
36:35
community at uco.edu, the office of inclusive community inclusive community at uco.edu.
36:43
So they solve it there. So that's interesting that that you look through all this, but let's be clear
36:49
about what this is, what this policy is. It's compelled speech.
36:56
Now, if you're familiar with that phraseology compelled speech, it probably goes back to before
37:01
you knew the name of a guy named Jordan Peterson. So this was Bill C 16 in Canada, where there was
37:07
going to be a compelled speech mandate around pronouns. And he was very, very open and loud
37:13
and bombastic about his, you know, basically hating that idea, his opposition to that idea.
37:21
And it wasn't because he wanted to be rude. It wasn't because he loves misgendering or dead
37:26
naming people. It was because he understands all the totalitarian regimes that almost ended
37:31
the world in the 20th century, right? He understands Stalin's Russia or Soviet Union. He understands,
37:38
you know, Hitler's Germany, he understands Pol Potts, Cambodia, he understands
37:42
Mao's China, he understands those because he spent hundreds and hundreds of hours reading,
37:47
thinking about and studying those particular things. And a lot of the things that started
37:52
the beginning of those regimes was compelling speech and or acceptable speech versus unacceptable
37:58
speech. That's what this policy is. It seems to be couched in generalized language. And if you're
38:04
not really astute enough to read this and be able to read between the lines, you're going to be like,
38:08
you know, just kind of is what it is. Hey, it's 2022. So people got different pronouns like,
38:12
what's a big deal? They're telling you what words you're not allowed to say. So again, I come in,
38:18
I tell you, my name is Carla, and I'm she her now. And I'm saying, and this policy is saying,
38:24
you have to do that now. That when you're using a pronoun to describe me, it has to not align
38:31
with the truth. The truth does not matter as much as my feelings and my preferences. That is what
38:36
this is. And also, let's be clear about this. The University of Central Oklahoma, my alma mater,
38:43
purposefully put out this policy without addressing what the consequences would be for any faculty
38:51
staff that decide to not go along with the charade. Why? Why did they leave out the potential consequences?
39:01
Because it's not as if there won't be consequences. But where is the section of this, this document
39:07
that says, if any faculty staff member refuses to abide by someone's chosen name or pronouns,
39:13
here's what they can expect. It's because they're going to just make it up on the spot.
39:17
They're going to plan to make an example out of somebody and hope that person's not very
39:22
litigious, right? This isn't a farrier. It really is. Because with any policy prescription that is
39:29
demanding that something go down with people that have autonomy to agree with that or abide by that
39:34
or not, you have to give them an idea as to what the consequences will be if they don't go along with
39:40
that. Now, it's my understanding that there have been different colleges within the university
39:46
that have gotten together to further kind of like pre year discussions about what's going to happen
39:50
for this semester and hear some policy changes and hear some whatever and so whatever. And I do
39:54
have some some knowledge of how one of those went. They basically started with the DEI people,
39:58
the diversity, equity, inclusion people, they kind of kicked off these meetings. And I know
40:02
that there were people that kind of raised their hands and said, Hey, what about this policy? Like,
40:06
you know, what are we going to do? Like, you know, what if somebody changes the size they want to
40:09
change their pronouns multiple times throughout the semester? And like, all I'm trying to do is
40:12
like teach them how to do whatever it is I'm being paid to teach them how to do. And now I'm having
40:17
to worry about names and pronouns and all this other stuff. And you know, I don't know that a lot
40:22
of movement has been made on that. But for one particular person in general, or I guess for one
40:27
particular person in particular, I gave them some advice on what they should do. Okay, for the
40:32
predicament that they find themselves in. So this particular person did not get a great answer
40:37
from the person that runs their department as to what would happen if they themselves decided
40:42
that they weren't going to buy by this. So what I encourage this person to do is to get a sit down
40:48
meeting with that person and or get an email, you know, chained together going with that
40:54
department head to get a defined exact reasoning and understanding of what would happen if they
41:02
decided not to comply. Right. And so if they want to just get it, you know, on an email so they
41:08
haven't in writing or if they want to record the conversation once they go in there, like whatever,
41:12
they I encouraged him to do that. But then beyond that, I encourage this person to also go to that
41:19
person's boss. So you got the department head, go to the department heads boss and get confirmation
41:25
again, start the conversation over from the beginning. Hey, this was, you know, the director
41:29
of the department, this was their understanding. But now for you, what is your understanding of this?
41:33
And literally take that conversation all the way up to the president's office and say,
41:39
if I or if anyone else on campus decides that they don't want to do this, because they believe in
41:45
truth and they believe that this pronoun stuff is nonsense, what are you going to do? And you need
41:51
to get everybody on the record answering that question. Okay. So for this individual or any
41:57
other individual that could ever possibly be in the situation, that is my advice to you. Get them
42:02
on the record and make sure you have it recorded, whether the audio or in writing. So my big takeaway
42:08
on this story is that this cam and will happen at a university near you. And also for your parents
42:17
out there, make sure that you keep track of the universities that don't fold to the pressure of
42:22
the LGBTQ revolution. So there are going to be some conservative holdouts. So think of a Hillsdale
42:29
college, which is like, you know, an old school conservative university, they're going to continue
42:33
to expand and get even bigger over the years as long as they can continue with standing,
42:37
you know, what's coming at them. And part of the thing and the reason why a university like that's
42:41
able to do that is because they take no funding from the federal government, right? It's an
42:45
interesting thing. But guys, this is going to happen. You know, a lot of you are complaining
42:49
about happening at your K through 12 schools. Yeah, I get it. The same thing is going to happen
42:53
within the college programs, which is another reason why I tell all you guys, you really need
42:57
to have conversations about this with your children. Because if you're going to be on the hook for
43:02
potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars to send your kid to a liberal indoctrination camp,
43:07
otherwise known as a state university, like, don't you want to have some say in that?
43:11
Like that's not a good idea. You're going to incur all this debt and or your child's going to incur
43:17
all this debt, especially if they get some useless degree that they're not going to use for their
43:22
next job, have a conversation to them about going into a trade or literally taking a year off to
43:27
figure out what they want to do, going and getting a job first, you know, working and trying to see
43:31
if they can find something that they like to do as opposed to just like, you know, just brain
43:35
dead, go to a university. Well, what's your major? I have no idea. I don't have to declare one and
43:39
tell them a junior party. Like, sorry, like, that's not a great idea for most people. So for you,
43:45
if you're going to be a well-meaning, you know, Christian leader of a parent as a father for
43:49
most of you listening to this, you've really got to take a lot of these things into account.
43:53
Because this isn't nothing. And again, I've got a two year old and a five month old.
43:57
So I've got a lot of years to really look at the landscape. For some of you, you got kids that are
44:02
knocking on the door going to university somewhere. So got to keep all this in mind.
44:05
All right. Next quick hitter here, Boston Children's Hospital takes heat for castrating
44:11
and mutilating children. So this is according to the federalist, Boston Children's Hospital is
44:15
promoting the mutilization of healthy kids who claim to be transgender via gender affirming
44:20
hysterectomies, sterilization and chemical castration, despite the irreversible mental
44:24
and physical damage those procedures cause. For years now, BCH has mutilated children's sexual
44:30
organs under the guise of inclusive reproductive health care for people of all gender identities
44:34
and anatomies. This includes prescribing hormones that suppress administration in underage girls
44:40
and block the increase of testosterone and minor boys, phaloplasties and metodioplasties
44:46
for 18 year old girls who want penises, vaginal plastic for 17 year old boys who want vaginas,
44:51
chest reconstruction and breast augmentation for children as young as 15, and even medically
44:55
unnecessary hysterectomies for girls whom the hospital deems eligible for surgery. Just this
45:00
week, this was actually last week, BCH scrubbed a video titled what happens during a gender
45:04
affirming hysterectomy after facing backlash for promoting the surgery for minors who can't
45:09
consent and do not have the mental capacity to make such a life altering decision. An archived
45:14
version of the footage shows Dr. Francis Grimstad, an obstetrician gynecologist describing the process
45:19
of rendering teen women infertile by removing key female reproductive organs in the name of
45:24
affirmation. A gender affirming hysterectomy is very similar to most hysterectomies that occur
45:29
Grimstad happily explains. A hysterectomy itself is the removal of the uterus, the cervix,
45:34
which is the opening of the uterus, and the fallopian tubes which are attached to the sides of the
45:38
uterus. Okay, so there's more there. I'm sure a lot of you guys, if you follow most people in the
45:43
conservative space, they've really been talking a lot about this has actually happened a couple of
45:46
weeks ago. I think I said it happened a week ago. But I think it's very interesting kind of watching
45:51
how people have reacted to the story, how the right the political right is reporting the story
45:55
versus how the left is. So when I was looking at this, obviously, you know, the federalist is very
46:00
conservative. So obviously the stuff that I just read was very tinged in that idea. And you could
46:04
even just say tinged with the idea of truth. But how the right is handling this story is they are
46:09
rightfully no pun intended. They're aghast and worried about this hospital, this this huge like
46:16
top tier hospital going out of their way to normal normalize the mutilation and chemical
46:21
castration of children. But the left on the other hand, they're worried about all the quote
46:27
unquote violent threats coming their way and coming the hospital's ray after right-wing people
46:33
online began targeting them. Okay, now here's the thing about that. So we're getting all these
46:39
reports of all these people you making violent threats towards the hospital or anything like that.
46:43
Can someone show me a receipt? Can you show me the DM? Can you post the email or the voicemail
46:52
that was left with the violent threat on it? Because I'm just about tired of everyone in the
46:58
general public just taking as as truth, taking it as gospel that when people say I've been getting
47:04
death threats that they're actually getting them. Okay, now I'm I'm in no way shape or form saying
47:10
that death threats are a good thing. If you disagree with what Boston Children's Hospital is doing
47:14
and you're calling them saying I'm in and threatening to kill their staff, that's a really,
47:17
really horrific thing to do. That's a really, really stupid thing to do. But a good thing to do
47:22
might be to go outside their facility and hold up a sign that says please stop castrating children.
47:26
Like it's your wealth in your rights to call them to email them to show up and to say,
47:33
hey, I'm really concerned about what you guys are doing. Can you stop it? There's no threat there.
47:38
It's not stopping her else. Right? Right? It's just don't do this anymore.
47:41
Like you can't castrate these children. So I'm very happy that there are a lot of conservative
47:47
commentators that have taken up the mantle on this. Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire, obviously on
47:51
the hills of what is a woman, he's really going out of his way on this one. And he's getting a lot
47:55
of support from people to where it's like, we can't be silent on this issue anymore.
47:59
We can't know that there are children's hospitals in the United States that are getting funding
48:03
from the federal government that are literally destroying the lives of children before we have
48:08
any idea, right? You know, according to data as to what the long term effects are going to be.
48:13
Now, anyone with a functioning brain would know what the long term effects are because
48:18
suicidality for people that go through a quote unquote full transition is just as high if not
48:23
higher after they've gone through the transition as was before. So as a cohort of the population,
48:28
people that have gendered dysphoria have a much higher rate of suicide or at least trying for
48:33
suicide, but then people that go through all the hormones and all the surgery and all those things,
48:37
they still commit suicides at a high, high, high rate. Why? Because there is a meaning shaped
48:44
hole in their life that they think if they get a fake penis sewed on top of their vagina is somehow
48:49
going to fix it. That if their breasts are bothering them as a 14 year old girl, that if they get those
48:55
chopped off, that that's somehow going to make them whole. It is a God shaped hole inside these
49:00
people and they're finding their meaning in how they present themselves in terms of their gender
49:06
identity. So the big takeaway on this one is the left cannot handle when you simply point to what
49:14
they're doing or saying and critique it. They simply cannot fathom why you aren't giving them
49:21
your full-throated support. Pick an issue, whether it's transgenderism with kids,
49:26
anything that comes out of the array of the LGBTQ+ issues on abortion, on health care,
49:32
on taxation, on immigration, they have no idea why you can't just say, yeah, I agree with you.
49:39
You're so smart and awesome. Thank you for being my handler. They don't get it. It's just astonishing
49:46
to me that they can't handle it. They become such a whiny crying little measly milli-a-mouth
49:53
babies when you critique what they're doing. And when all you're doing is holding up a platter
49:59
with what they're doing on it and saying, I don't like this because typically, not all of them,
50:05
typically people on the right are going to lie about what you've said or what you're doing.
50:09
They just don't have that in them because they typically want truth to be known. This is typical,
50:16
not across the board, but this is typical. And so when somebody wants truth to be known and they
50:22
just show an accurate depiction within context of what you think and what you're doing and you're
50:27
like, oh, that's crazy. It's like, here, let me distract you with my reaction to your reaction
50:32
as opposed to us having to reckon with the fact that you're cutting off the penises of boys
50:38
and removing the sexual organs of girls, castrating them, giving them chemicals that we used to give
50:46
to rapists and pedophiles to castrate them. We're giving them to children that can't consent to
50:52
a sexual relationship that can somehow consent to their sexual organs being removed or fake ones
50:58
being added to them. So as this continues to move forward, I will continue to bring this to you.
51:05
I will continue to report on it. And if there are things that you can do to fight against this,
51:09
and I don't mean fight with your fists or with multiple cocktails or bricks through windows,
51:14
I mean, fight this ideology to try to get this to stop. You absolutely should do so.
51:18
All right. Next quick hitter here, Minneapolis public schools targets white teachers for
51:24
termination. So this is according to daily caller, a contract between a Minneapolis public school
51:29
district and teachers unions calls for white teachers to be fired before minority teachers,
51:33
according to the contract obtained by the daily caller. On March the 25th, the Minneapolis
51:38
Federation of Teachers and the Minneapolis public schools struck a deal to end a 14 day union strike
51:44
that deal included a bargaining agreement for various proposals, including one that fires
51:48
educators based on their race, according to alpha news, starting with the spring 2023 budget tie-out
51:54
cycle. If accessing a teacher that's firing a teacher who is a member of a population underrepresented
51:59
among licensed teachers in the site, the district shall access the latest or they shall access the
52:06
next least senior teacher who is not a member of an underrepresented population. The contract reads
52:12
minority teachers may also be exempted from district wide layoffs outside seniority order
52:17
and given priority reinstatement according to the contract. The contract attempts to protect teachers
52:22
at 15 racially isolated schools from layoffs. These schools house the greatest concentration
52:27
of poverty within the district. The race based firing process is intended to make up for past
52:32
discrimination by the district disproportionately impacting the hiring of underrepresented teachers
52:36
in the district as compared to the relevant labor market and the community. This disparity
52:41
resulted in a lack of diversity of teachers according to the contract. So a few random thoughts here.
52:46
The first thought is that this is obviously mega racist. If you're hiring or firing based on race,
52:53
that is super duper racist, right? So you don't have to go back to the civil rights era into all
53:00
the agreements that happened therein with our federal government to realize, yeah, this is pretty
53:04
speaking racist, but racism apparently is 100% okay as long as it's targeted to white people. And again,
53:12
here I am as a Christian white straight, you know, cisgendered male. So I'm like the worst version
53:17
of Satan walking the earth and I have red hair. So I have no soul. So it's the worst thing possible.
53:22
But racism should not happen to any race for any reason whatsoever. And here's the other thing.
53:29
Other school districts in this country will use this what we're seeing right now in
53:34
Minneapolis, Minnesota here in the United States as a model for their own policies in their school
53:39
district. This is obviously what's going to come next. So they're not the first school district to
53:43
do some nonsense like this, but they're not going to be the last and they're just basically showing
53:47
you here's how you can get it done. Here's how you can make it happen. Now this also gets into a
53:51
point someone, anyone, feel free to email me info out on non to dot life. Tell me how teachers unions
53:59
are making anything better. And I mean, like anything, because per capita per student,
54:06
we give more funding to education in this country per student than most of the rest of the world
54:15
does. And yet our educational outcomes are paltry compared to countries all over the planet,
54:22
whether it's reading, writing, mathematics, science, engineering, anything else. We suck at all those
54:30
things. And all we get told by these teacher unions is we need more money. Oh, do we? To the
54:37
people you real heroes that were advocating that we don't need to have children in school for two
54:42
years so that you could teach zoom school in your underwear. Sorry. Again, I'm not going to get off
54:48
on another tangent about teachers, but it's like they're not a homogenous group of heroes.
54:52
And teachers unions are not here for the public health of the students education. They're simply
54:57
not. They're a political group that overwhelmingly we're talking like 90 95 votes one way with Democrats
55:06
that always want more funding for something that sucks, which is our education system here in this
55:11
country. So how are these teachers unions helping? Seriously, if I'm ignorant on this issue, I want
55:17
to know. But my big takeaway on this one is racism today does not fix racism from yesterday,
55:24
which is duh to anybody that knows anything about words and how they're supposed to hit your brain
55:30
and make sense. You can't do something that's racist today to take care of something that's
55:36
racist that happened back in the day, even if it's you. So me doing something racist today
55:42
doesn't fix racism that happened yesterday, but it certainly doesn't fix fix racism that happened
55:46
decades and decades ago to people that weren't even related to you. Okay. So for Christians,
55:52
I want to remind you about something from James two. Okay. So the sin of partiality. So let's talk
55:57
about James two. I'm going to read verses one through 13 here. My brothers, show no partiality
56:03
as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory for if a man wearing a gold ring
56:08
and fine clothing comes into your assembly and a poor man and shabby clothing also comes in.
56:12
And if you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, you sit here in a good
56:16
place, while you say to the poor man, you stand over there or sit down at my feet. Have you not
56:21
then made distinctions among yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts?
56:25
Listen, my beloved brothers has not God chosen that you that who that those who are poor in the world
56:31
to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him,
56:35
but you have dishonored the poor man are not rich the ones who oppress you and the ones who drag
56:41
into the court. Are they not the ones who blaspheme the honorable name by which you were called?
56:46
If you really fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, you shall love your neighbor
56:50
as yourself, you are doing well. But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted
56:56
by the law as transgressors for whoever keeps the whole law, but fails to in one point has become
57:02
guilty of all of it. For he who said do not commit adultery also said do not murder. If you do not
57:06
commit adultery, but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law. So speak and so act
57:12
as those who are to be judged under the law of liberty for judgment is without mercy to one who
57:17
has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. Okay, so that is a good word for any of you out
57:26
there. Christians that maybe have a little bit of racial animus in your heart, maybe it comes from
57:30
your upbringing, comes from your background. You look at people in certain ways. If they look a
57:35
certain way, you treat people differently and act differently around people. What we're hearing
57:39
here from the half brother of Jesus is that that is the sin of partiality that you should not do
57:44
that with individuals. And that's also a good explanation of the gospel there that there's
57:48
total depravity here, right? If you break any law, which all of us break tons of laws every
57:52
single day, God's laws, that that's not a good thing. And that you are going to be judged by the
57:56
law of the transgressors and you need a way out of that, hence the gospel, the blood of Christ.
58:01
But again, this kind of goes back to, you know, Thomas old book, you know, talking about the quest
58:05
for cosmic justice on this planet. If you don't have a Judeo Christian ethic and you don't think
58:12
that at some point every tear that's ever been shed will be picked back up that every horrible
58:18
thing that's ever been done will be as blotted out as if it never happened. If you don't believe
58:21
that then you demand that there be justice on this planet and you get that through reparations,
58:27
you get that by being racist towards people today. And you pretend as if that's going to affect
58:33
racism that was enacted decades, if not centuries, behind that time period. Okay. But again, guys,
58:39
racism today does not fix racism from yesterday. We must avoid the sin of partiality.
58:45
All right, next quick hitter here flash mobs in California trade in dancing for looting,
58:50
because every time I hear flash mob, I think people are going to just start dancing in the
58:53
food court at the mall. But apparently not anymore. So this is according to NBC Los Angeles video
58:58
from security cameras inside a 7 11 captured a chaotic scene when a crowd of people ransacked
59:02
the store during a street takeover in Los Angeles's Harbor Gateway area. The large crowd gathered
59:07
for the street takeover on Monday night in the Harbor Gateway area swarmed the store at the corner
59:11
of Figaroa street and El Segundo Boulevard in a frenzy of looting and vandalism. Security camera
59:16
video showed the large crowd gathering outside the store inside the situation quickly turned into
59:20
mayhem. When dozens of people emptied shelves through snacks and beverages and left the merchandise
59:25
and left with merchandise rather, police described the scene as flash mob looting. At least two people
59:30
jumped over the front counter and threw items and two others in the crowd. A store employee
59:34
decisively outnumbered hid in the back room of the store fearing for his life police set.
59:39
The suspects are facing multiple charges to include grand theft looting and vandalism.
59:43
The LAPD said in a statement, we are seeking the public's health and identifying persons observed
59:47
in the video committing these acts. No arrests were reported early Thursday. This was Thursday
59:51
of last week. So guys, you know, in the video, if you watch these videos, which you'll be able to
59:54
check it out in the show notes, these people look like animals. Like this looks like some,
59:58
some crazy, like feeding frenzy thing like it just they don't even look like people. It's just
1:00:02
nonsense. I mean, people have all shapes and sizes and colors just acting in an absolute
1:00:06
fool inside of this 7 11. But here's the thing. The LAPD and I've read some of their responses.
1:00:12
They're pretending to be outraged about this. But we all know that they're not going to do
1:00:18
anything about it. And you know why? Because even if they did, the people that they would
1:00:24
arrest would likely never go to jail for it. Because you have DAs in this community that,
1:00:30
you know, they've bought in this idea that, you know, our prisons are overflowing with people that
1:00:33
just were accidentally doing crimes. And now they're serving a 20 year sentence, which is just not
1:00:37
the case in almost every single one of these scenarios. But they know, like, why if you're
1:00:41
an LAPD officer, why would you have, even if you came upon this situation, are you going to walk
1:00:46
in there and do anything about that situation? No, because you know, potentially your entire life
1:00:51
is on the line. Because other people pointed this out. But let's say you go in there and you try to
1:00:55
stop this. And in the process of doing so, you have to rub up rough up somebody in order to
1:01:00
arrest them and subdue them. But that person happens to be part of a protected class.
1:01:04
Maybe it's a black man, or maybe it's an LGBTQ person or some non binary widget or something like
1:01:09
that that you're arresting. Now, all of a sudden, you could be brought up on charges or something
1:01:14
like that, or you could lose your livelihood or get docked by people on Twitter or something like
1:01:18
that, just for doing your job. So most of these people are gonna be like, eh, they're just gonna
1:01:22
turn a blind eye to it. So a big takeaway from this one is criminals will continue to perform
1:01:27
criminal acts if they do not believe they're gonna be punished. Because punishment is a deterrent.
1:01:31
I keep hearing that, you know, ah, you know, the death penalty is not a deterrent. We should
1:01:35
get rid of it. Oh, these these long, you know, mandatory sentences are not a deterrent. We should
1:01:39
get rid of it. But then they cite no data whatsoever to prove that. Because it's a non falsifiable
1:01:44
claim like what I was talking about with Joe Biden, they're like, Oh, you know, good thing he's got,
1:01:48
you know, a very mild case of the C word, you know, good thing he got for these V words.
1:01:53
It's like, uh, well, that's not falsifiable. You can't falsify that. You can't go back in time
1:01:58
and not give him the V words for the C word and then compare it to where he is today. Like you
1:02:02
can't do that. Same thing here. You're saying these things aren't a deterrent, but we can't go back
1:02:06
in time and say that and say that there would be more or less of a particular crime. But there was
1:02:11
something in a debate that I did recently when I was talking about gun violence and different
1:02:14
things like that, which I didn't really get to get into. But I gathered some scriptures about
1:02:17
stiff penal sanctions. Okay. So I'm not going to be able to get the context of all these verses,
1:02:22
but let me read these here to you. Ecclesiastes 8, 11, because the sentence against an evil deed
1:02:27
is not executed speedily. The heart of the children of man is fully set to do evil.
1:02:32
Then we have Proverbs 28, five evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the Lord
1:02:37
understand it completely. And then, you know, one chapter later, Proverbs 29, four by justice,
1:02:42
a king builds up the land, but he who exacts gifts tears it down. And then we have Hebrews
1:02:47
22. For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression
1:02:52
or disobedience received a just retribution. Okay, but I really want to focus on the Ecclesiastes
1:02:58
8 11. Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the children
1:03:03
of man is fully set to do evil. I think this applies with a lot of things. So if you think
1:03:08
about I brought up the death penalty, so you have somebody they are clearly guilty of this particular
1:03:12
crime. You give them the the processes to appeal just in case there was an issue with that initial
1:03:18
trial. But then we have these people that will sit on death row for decades and decades living
1:03:23
on the government dime, the taxpayer dime. And then they get there at the very last minute,
1:03:29
the governor will commute their sentence and a lot of these cases. And now they're going to be living
1:03:32
for decades and decades and decades more, even though the just penalty for their actions was a
1:03:38
speedy death. But we don't do that anymore. So I would argue that if somebody were to commit a
1:03:45
murder and they're arrested for that, they get a quick trial, right, where it proves their guilt
1:03:49
or innocence. They get one, they get one chance to go and do another trial. They get they get one
1:03:57
time to do that. And then afterwards, they need to be put to death immediately. And that's not to
1:04:03
say we shouldn't share the gospel with these people because I can already hear people saying
1:04:06
that. Well, what do you mean? You need to give them more time to accept Christ, even though, you
1:04:09
know, Calvinists wouldn't even say that. It's like, ah, they're either elected or they're not. So good
1:04:11
luck. Like, but beyond that, it's like, why do we, we have these processes where it's like,
1:04:17
they get to go back to court and back to court and back to court and nothing changes. And then
1:04:21
they stay on death row for years and years and years longer. And then they just get commuted anyway.
1:04:26
Like, if you have stiffer penal sanctions, again, I know death penalty is kind of in its entire
1:04:31
different thing. But if these people that are doing felonious acts or something like that,
1:04:36
if they are stiffly penalized for these things, that will have an effect on people that know them.
1:04:41
Knuckleheads that are around them, guys are in the gang with them or doing the organized crime
1:04:44
with them, right? It's a big deal. So again, we can't expect for crimes to start going down
1:04:50
in all these typically blue cities across the country, unless we can get the DAs out of there
1:04:54
that aren't punishing them. It seems pretty simple for my view. All right, last quick
1:04:59
at her here. Serena Williams thinks it's unfair that she's a woman. Okay. So Serena Williams is
1:05:06
genuinely one of the greatest sports success stories that we've ever seen in mainstream sports.
1:05:12
So obviously you should know the story like her and her sister Venus, you know, they're from
1:05:16
Compton and you know, trying to get into a sport that was dominated by people that didn't look like
1:05:20
them. Tennis was very, very rough. But Serena Williams, especially literally made it and has turned
1:05:28
herself into a mega millionaire, an international superstar because of how gifted from God she is,
1:05:35
how hard she worked, how resilient she was, and how well she performed under pressure.
1:05:41
I mean, let's just let's just run the stats here. So this is all women's tennis. Obviously,
1:05:46
23 singles, grand slam titles, 14 doubles, grand slam titles, two mixed doubles, grand slam titles,
1:05:53
one Olympic gold medal and singles, three Olympic gold medals and doubles, and her career earnings
1:05:58
just from the women's tennis association, the WTA, 94,588,910 dollars. That's just from playing
1:06:08
tennis. Okay, that doesn't get into the Gatorade sponsorships. That doesn't get into Nike doesn't
1:06:13
get into anything else, just from WTA, almost $95 million. Okay. So she is easily and without
1:06:18
debate, the greatest of all time women's tennis player. Now, you can go and miss me with all this
1:06:24
goat of tennis overall nonsense. I literally saw that. I forget where I was, but you know, I was
1:06:28
think it was at lunch. And in the background, they were debating on ESPN, of course, on ESPN,
1:06:32
which is the MSNBC of sports, they were debating whether or not she was the goat of tennis just
1:06:37
overall, right? Even though she admitted before that if she had to play against men that she would
1:06:44
get destroyed because in practice, she would constantly get absolutely destroyed in straight
1:06:49
sets to kids that were college tennis players, male tennis players that weren't even that good,
1:06:56
not highly ranked, not highly touted. No one in the tennis world even knows their name and she
1:07:00
would get destroyed by them. Okay. So we need to put that to the side. But apparently,
1:07:04
even after all that, all that money, you know, all the titles, all the awards, all the accolades,
1:07:10
you might be shocked to find out that Serena Williams is in fact a victim.
1:07:14
So let's go to this by the daily wire. Superstar Serena Williams announced her retirement from
1:07:19
tennis and said that nothing is a sacrifice for her as she explained that she's choosing building
1:07:24
her family rather than her tennis resume. In a lengthy article written by the 40 year old
1:07:29
tennis superstar for Vogue, Serena talked about how much she will miss the part of her that played
1:07:33
tennis, but that she's come to a moment in her life when she wants to grow her family. It doesn't
1:07:37
want to be pregnant again as an athlete. Williams and husband Alexis Oh, Hanian. Don't, don't
1:07:43
say that. I'm sorry, share a daughter Alexis Olympia who turns five this month. Now, this is a quote
1:07:48
from her and this is where everybody's kind of, you know, kind of getting all these, these thoughts
1:07:51
and ideas on what she's saying. So believe me, I never wanted to have to choose between tennis
1:07:56
and a family. The tennis star wrote, I don't think it's fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn't be riding
1:08:01
this because I'd be out there playing in winning while my wife was doing the physical labor of
1:08:06
expanding our family. Maybe I'd be more of a Tom Brady. If I had the opportunity, she added,
1:08:11
don't get me wrong. I love being a woman and I love every second of being pregnant with Olympia.
1:08:16
I was one of those annoying women who adored being pregnant and working until the day that I had
1:08:20
to report to the hospital. Although things got super complicated on the other side. And she
1:08:24
shared that if if I have to choose between building my tennis resume and building my family, I choose
1:08:29
the latter. As she explained that, when it comes to her daughter, nothing is a sacrifice for her.
1:08:34
It all just makes sense, she said. Okay. So obviously, I agree with that. You know,
1:08:39
if it's between building your your resume for your job versus, you know, building your family,
1:08:43
the latter always makes sense there. You know, her kind of wanting to, you know, be there for
1:08:49
a family and how that's a great idea. Like obviously, obviously, that's a great thing.
1:08:52
But she's literally lamenting her biggest superpower as a human being and as a woman,
1:08:58
which it's highly transphobic of her to talk about the fact that she loves being a woman,
1:09:03
because you know, what is that? But she's lamenting her ability to grow and care for a child and her
1:09:10
family. Again, go back to her own words here. I don't think it's fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn't
1:09:16
be writing this because I'd be out there playing and winning while my wife was doing the physical
1:09:20
labor of expanding our family. So the big takeaway on this one is guys, no matter how privileged you
1:09:26
are in life, as long as you check at least one intersectional box, you too can be a massive victim.
1:09:33
Isn't that great? Isn't that great news that you can literally be one of the most privileged
1:09:37
human beings on the planet, one of the most tremendous success stories and one of the greatest
1:09:42
athletes, a tremendous example to young girls everywhere and all that stuff. But gosh darn it,
1:09:48
she just weren't a woman. She just wishes that her husband could carry that baby and deal with
1:09:54
a physical labor of expanding our family. But that's where we are now. That's where we are now in
1:10:00
culture. That's where we are now in society. We're lamenting the good things that God gave to us
1:10:04
as a gift. God gave women the ability to carry children as a gift. God gave men the ability to
1:10:11
protect and provide for a family as a gift. And we look at it as if, gosh, if I were to do it,
1:10:19
I would do it this way. And we're going to keep seeing that drift in culture. So we'll be here
1:10:24
for all of it guys. So keep coming back. We'll keep talking about it. All right, guys,
