00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:20.559
Meet the layman's log, a Catholic planner for your prayer, your plans, and your daily duties.
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:23.679
Beautifully bound, thoughtfully arranged.
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:26.719
A little order for your busy life.
00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:32.799
What a handsome young man.
00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:34.799
I wanted to support him.
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:07.040
This doesn't even have ordinary time.
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:09.920
That little weezer ripped me off.
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:17.359
So uh for anybody that's wondering what the hell that was, which is everyone.
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:23.760
Uh TLM Ryan, been a guest on our show, uh, uh very good friend of ours.
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:26.879
He is uh he's starting a Catholic planner.
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:28.959
He's basically what uh what's he going up against, Rob?
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:29.599
The Saint Maker?
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:30.719
Saint Maker, yeah.
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:35.359
Basically trying to go at go at the Saint Maker, but and uh he wrote me a whole script.
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:36.640
His script sucks.
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:40.319
He did tell me you were probably gonna not read it anyways.
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:41.519
His script's terrible.
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:43.519
I mean, this is this is you want to hear his pitch?
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:47.680
His pitch is uh brought to you by penitent planners.
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:49.040
Are you a busy Catholic?
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.280
Stay organized and focused with the oh Ryan, come on, this is this is terrible.
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.840
Stay organized and focused with this daily planner featuring both the traditional and revised calendars.
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:10.319
This planner combines organization and productivity with Catholic devotions like the rosary trackers, the oh, like rosary trackers, angelist reminders, fasting guides, evening examines, and more.
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:17.840
So basically, look, he's only making these for the next two months because he's not going to make them into the new year.
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:23.599
So this is a very short thing that you're gonna be able to pre-order for and be able to get them by January.
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:25.360
It does look pretty awesome.
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:30.240
So if you guys go over to the website, you'll be able to preview it and see what it is.
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:36.479
Um, and we're hoping that he does put a little dent in Catholic ink.
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:42.479
So um, also, we brought uh we brought Sips with Sarah on tonight, man.
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:44.080
Speaking of Catholic ink, what's it?
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:50.000
Yeah, we um well should we just get the other ones out of the way real quick too?
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:56.719
Uh we are going to we are going to get Adrian from Sips with Sarah some nicknacks, and we're gonna see if we could bring them over to our side.
00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:03.520
Uh go to nicknack.com, use code AB25% for 25% off your first purchase, use code AB10 for 10% on all subsequent purchases.
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:10.080
They do contain nicotine, and nicotine is an addictive chemical, so maybe we shouldn't send them to Adrian, but we'll see.
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:11.680
We're gonna get them hooked.
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:12.240
That's the point.
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:14.719
Uh and they're not uh nicotine sucks.
00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:19.120
Uh they're not a smoking cessation device, but I think we're allowed to say they are.
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.599
But we're not gonna check whether our lawyers are anything first about that.
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:25.840
No, nobody watches our show, who cares?
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:33.680
Um, and then uh black monk rosary, go to blackmonkrosaries.com, use code of voting babylon at checkout, and you'll get 10% off your black monk rosary.
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:37.120
I am sending the winning rosary out after this show tonight.
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.520
I've had a very busy weekend, haven't been able to.
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:43.759
So um, all right, so Adrian, we are going to do something a little unique tonight.
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:52.960
So we wanted to get you on because I've been watching some of your posts on X, and I'm like, man, we're all kind of feeling this thing that's happening in Europe right now.
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.759
And I was happy to see some of the stuff you were posting.
00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:02.800
I've also I'm gonna I'm gonna tackle the JQ with you a little bit tonight because you seem to have let's do it.
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:03.919
You gotta really get it.
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:05.439
This is gonna be a fun one.
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:10.000
This is my last ever appearance on YouTube before I get canceled.
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:13.280
I I knew it was gonna go this way, but I'm I'm I'm ready for it.
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:21.120
And then and then I figure we go over to locals and I want to get your uh I want to get to know you a little bit, maybe we can become friends because you have a crazy story.
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:29.680
I I did watch it's been a while, so I don't remember the details, but I do remember you were on Pints, and I was like, holy crap, this kid's got quite a story, man.
00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:32.399
So we'll uh we'll get into that over on the other side.
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:41.839
But I had like this the the past four or five days have been like one of the saddest things I've witnessed on social media, man.
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:54.160
Just like there's there's something about watching Europe just in its just why just watching these foreigners destroy European civilization.
00:04:54.399 --> 00:05:08.959
Like part of me is just wondering where the hell are the French people to defend their land, and we need to figure something out to defend our cathedrals because these people

are going to go after our cathedrals, but I figure we could we could just jump into it.
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:13.680
Well, you've had you've had some pretty uh strong thoughts on this topic too, right?
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:28.879
Yeah, it and it's that's something I've talked about online too, is like I understand you we don't want like vigilantes going out there and doing violence, but you at least would think like if people in France are um, you know, Catholic people especially are their churches are being attacked.
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:33.439
If my church is being attacked, I would at least show up and be like, hey, I'm not gonna make this easy on you guys.
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:38.879
Like we're not just gonna let you come into our church and desecrate potentially the Eucharist, you know, of all things.
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:48.879
Um, so it's um, but I think now we are actually seeing, I saw some videos today of some uh French nationalists that were kind of responding by having their own little march.
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:51.519
Um, and I say little, but there were actually quite a few people there.
00:05:51.600 --> 00:06:00.879
And I think in Italy as well, we're seeing people go and actually I saw one guy just smack one of these rioters in the face and and basically they push these people out.
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:08.000
And you realize it doesn't take a lot, you don't have to go there expecting to get in some severe, like violent conflict.
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:11.439
These people tend to be cowardly, coward, cowardly.
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:12.319
That's a word.
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:18.959
And um they're there because it's an easy thing that they can just jump in on, they can loot some stores, they can get in and get out.
00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:27.199
They're not they're they're not people that they're not there on principle, they're not there because they actually want something accomplished, they're there because this is an easy thing to participate in some chaos.
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:32.879
So when any amount of resistance is shown, we've seen in all the videos that they flee pretty pretty easily.
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:46.720
Rob, I threw in a video of um of the some some uh right-wing Frenchmen carrying red flags with crosses on them, and they took to the streets to like just push it.
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:52.000
It really is just like the slightest bit of pushback, and it seems to quell it.
00:06:52.079 --> 00:07:08.079
Like they really are just going for the easy target, and then like this is such a mob mentality where it really did probably start as some stupid French student protests, which the French do all the time, these stupid French protests that pop up all the time.
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:17.439
But you throw in a couple of chaos actors and they just set it off, and it's just gotten so violent, and and just the fires, man.
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:23.120
Fire is such a crazy image to see, uh, especially on like on these streets.
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:24.639
Go ahead, Rob, pop it up.
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.160
Like, this is what I want to see.
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:48.399
They're really tight, it's just marching.
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:53.680
I love how you never actually watch all the videos all the way through.
00:07:58.160 --> 00:07:59.680
Holy cow, dude.
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:05.360
It's just like I'm I'm watching all of this and I'm like, I I see what's happening in Europe right now.
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:08.319
Like that this is this is happening on the streets.
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:22.800
You're seeing this the way that they just let the migrants come in, set up shop, they they tried to do everything they could to make these people's lives as easy as possible, and there's absolutely no gratitude for it whatsoever.
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:28.160
And the second they have the opportunity, they're gonna just light the place on fire.
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:37.759
And it's it's just it's so sad to see, and that this is all intentional, like it's not like they could stop this stuff if they wanted to.
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:40.799
Simply, like, we're talking about like a surveillance state, right?
00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:42.960
Like, we're like, oh, Palantir's doing this.
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:49.200
They could identify like 75% of those people if they wanted to and just deport them, and they don't.
00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:54.720
So there's clearly something happening where they're allowing this to happen and not putting an end to it.
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:56.399
Yeah, I've wondered that.
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.639
Like, is this there they want this to happen?
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:00.960
Like, I don't know, does Macron want France to burn down?
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:01.679
I would hope not.
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:25.360
I would want to hope for the best that that he has at least some kind of decent intentions, but he certainly would rather do that than uh be called a racist or something because I saw he even made a statement and was like, I want to be very clear that we're not talking about all the protesters, you know, some of them have legitimate grievances, and it's like this isn't the time for you to be qualifying your statements when people are trying to literally destroy your country and destroy all of its most sacred monuments.
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:28.639
Uh, it's okay to be a little bit harsh on people when they're doing that.
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:37.840
You don't have to make qualifying statements, but it's like this fear of being called racist or this fear of being called names um outweighs the fear of losing your civilization, apparently.
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:48.399
Anthony, it's like it's it's like the tweet you put in here that I'm sure we'll get to, but it's like under the new new religion, the new secular religion, like racism is the greatest heresy.
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:49.519
Yeah, yeah.
00:09:49.679 -->
00:09:52.320
It's well how how old are you, Adrian?
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:55.120
I uh I'll be 32 pretty soon.
00:09:55.360 --> 00:10:02.240
Yeah, it is crazy how how the age, like you see it.
00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:07.600
Anybody under 45 has such a different outlook on this than people over 45.
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:10.720
It's just the the brainwashing that has gone on.
00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:17.200
I was watching somebody interview these two older um, they might have been English, it might have been, they might have been from the UK.
00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:22.480
Ask uh like asking this older couple, well, what do you think about all this immigration?
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:31.600
And the couple was basically like, well, you know, we colonized the world, so now if they have to colonize us, it's our fault, and we owe it to them to make things good for them.
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:38.559
And it's like that this these older people just do not care whatsoever the country they leave behind for their children.
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:41.039
It's it's like a it's suicidal.
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:51.440
Like, I don't understand, even when they see cities in flames that they're not, they still just have it hasn't clicked in their heads of what has gone on here.
00:10:51.600 --> 00:11:01.200
They they've welcomed the third world in, and these people hate, and it's not just that, like they're the these kids there's kids that are going to school, even in America, right?
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:08.480
Because we can look at Europe and we're like, oh my gosh, look at what's happening in Europe, but it's here too, like it's not any different here.
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:21.200
And you bring people into our country, and then they go through public education, and they're literally taught to hate us, like they're they're taught to despise the country that they're coming into.
00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:28.240
So then when something like this pops off, of course they're going to join in and think that you know they're they're fighting some noble fight.
00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:43.759
Yeah, I um I man, I I I heard many times in public school that like America's evil, all the evil things we've done in the past, and and you know, sure, there are things that America's done in the past that you could wrestle with and talk about and say, Yeah, it's a good thing we got rid of that.
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:51.279
But it does it look, there's something more than that where it's like you're kind of taught to be, it's seen as virtuous to kind of not like your country.
00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:53.919
And um it's really sad.
00:11:54.000 --> 00:12:07.759
And so when you have that, and then you have uh, you know, you accept immigrants into your country who don't share the same values of you as you, and not only that, but you don't even try to inculcate those values in them and not even emphasize like, hey, you should probably learn the local language, you should probably learn the local values.
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:10.480
Well, then yeah, this stuff is kind of just gonna happen.
00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:16.399
There hasn't been the slightest attempt to try and assimilate people, it's just it's happened so fast.
00:12:16.480 --> 00:13:01.200
Like we we've been to the past two episodes have been us talking about the immigration issue, and it's like I yeah, we have to be careful not to like give ourselves over to hate and vitriol, but at the same time, like that you're allowed to be sad at like watching the like that the country is going to be totally different from what we leave behind to our children, and then in Europe, like this whole this whole thing that's happening with Russia, you could see that they're like banging the war drums for war with Russia in Europe, and my biggest fear is that they do go to war with Russia, and all the white Europeans join that war and they die, and the country and continent they live on is left to these animals.
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:05.279
What do you what do you think World War I and World War II were all about?
00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:08.080
It was uh European civil uh suicide.
00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:15.200
Yeah, so if they if they go into a war with Russia, who like who who's going to actually join that war?
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:18.399
You think these people that you're seeing riding on the streets are gonna join that war?
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:19.039
They're not.
00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:33.360
It's you're going to so this beautiful civilization that was built by two millennia of Christian men and women is just gonna be left to the barbarians who have no appreciation for it whatsoever, and they're gonna burn it to the ground.
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:40.320
I really want to see like a movement put together to protect our cathedrals, like throughout throughout Europe and throughout the country.
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:43.360
Like, we're I'm going to Italy in five weeks, dude.
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:45.360
Like, I'm I'm that's crazy.
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:57.039
I'm going to Italy in five weeks, and I'm watching all this happen, and I'm like, this I'm so glad we're doing it, because I really do think this could be the last time you get to visit Europe.
00:13:57.120 --> 00:13:59.279
Like, I I think they'll get this under control.
00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:06.480
Like, I I do think this is, you know, it's it's brewing over there, but I think they'll get this under control.
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:13.919
But it's only gonna take a spark like this to happen again, where it gets enough momentum that it happens everywhere.
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:19.039
Because you see the the riots in France inspired riots in Milan.
00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:30.399
You can see they're starting to gather, like in the UK, I see something brewing up over there, and all it's gonna take is that spark to just get everyone all at once to just go completely ballistic.
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:36.240
And they've and they've
shipped in military aged men to do this.
00:14:36.399 --> 00:14:40.799
It is so crazy, and they can put an end to it at any time if they wanted to.
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:45.120
Um, I I just put that up.
00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:52.799
It was just like something I was thinking of on my um when I was driving home from work, but it's oof, it'd be a sad end.
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:58.080
Yeah, I I saw your your post when you were like, you're like, join me to go to Italy.
00:14:58.159 --> 00:14:59.600
It might be the last chance you get.
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:03.600
That's a crazy pitch, but it's true, it might be true, unfortunately.
00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:07.759
Two spots left if anybody wants like there's two spots.
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:22.559
Well, the thing is, we're going with a we're going with like 35 guys in their 20s and 30s, plus, and there's a bunch of women coming too, but like there's gonna be 35 guys in their 20s and 30s, and I'm like, I'm not worried.
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:23.360
That's the other thing.
00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:28.960
Like, when you see this stuff, it's similar to like the BLM riots in the United States when they happened.
00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:35.519
If you were watching from Europe, you would have thought the entire country was on fire, but it's not, it's localized in very specific places.
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:42.480
So even if something popped off in Italy while we were there, like you could you could get away from it, you just you know go two, three blocks over.
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:50.480
But it's the imagery of watching these iconic like uh uh landmarks just being destroyed, and they do it on purpose like that.
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:56.159
Like they they find they're gonna rip down the freaking Eiffel Tower, they're gonna do some crazy crap like that.
00:15:56.960 --> 00:15:59.519
I don't know if they're gonna rip down the Eiffel Tower Beat.
00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:02.240
Pretty crazy.
00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:06.080
I think they're gonna try, I think they're gonna go and aim for cathedrals.
00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:20.159
Rob, play that play the video of the girl I put in there because this is a this is a French girl, and it's it it's really annoying to me that it's taking girls coming out and talking about this, and there's not more men speaking like this.
00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:23.759
Girls are infuriating Anthony.
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:34.320
Let's do that everything, social benefits, anti-racist policies, new schools, and this is how they thank us.
00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:36.960
Assimilation is a myth.
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.159
We have to stop pretending it is possible to make it work anymore.
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:43.600
The question is, how did we ever get to this point?
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:53.440
France, like this jewel of European civilization, a country of extraordinary cultural wealth, brought to its knees by thugs with an IQ of 80?
00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:57.519
They only understand force, and we are too weak.
00:16:57.759 --> 00:16:59.840
We need to get rid of all empathy.
00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:05.680
These people hate us and would like to see us dead, so we will never coexist peacefully.
00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:08.000
It is either them or us.
00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:14.880
So the reasonable and peaceful solution is to send them back to the countries of origin they love so much.
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:16.880
Please share this video.
00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:20.079
Americans, westerners, Europeans, and their friends.
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:26.559
The French are counting on you to shine a light on what the media refuse to show about the situation here.
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:28.720
Look at what we have become.
00:17:29.039 --> 00:17:30.880
Do not make the same mistakes we did.
00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:33.279
Close your borders while you still have time.
00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:37.680
Across the world, European peoples are facing the same problems.
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:40.720
We are all in this together and together.
00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:47.119
So it's just, I mean, it's pretty accurate.
00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:55.200
So some somebody wrote, uh Rob, you can pull that tweet up I put up there, but uh so somebody wrote somebody asked why oh crap, I lost it.
00:17:55.359 --> 00:18:02.480
Um somebody asked why why are boomers like so hesitant to criticize this stuff?
00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:12.400
And the response was this said, because the boomer holy war, otherwise known as the Second World War, is the creation myth, the biblical genesis of the political world order we inhabit.
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:21.519
History begins in 1945, year zero, when the Allied and Axis powers, the cosmic forces of absolute good and evil, clash for dominion over the world.
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:27.519
What we called Western values are the liberal American values of the post-war post-war order.
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:34.960
Unregulated capital, uh global capitalism, liberal democracy, individualism, civil rights, and equality.
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:46.000
Three generations of men have been indoctrinated into this cult, which is ultimately a secularized heresy of Aristotelian humanist Christianity, repackaged as a universal moral doctrine.
00:18:46.160 --> 00:18:54.160
Hitler has assumed the role of Satan, while some grotesque amalgamation of Winston Churchill, Martin Luther King Jr., and Martin Luther King Jr.
00:18:54.319 --> 00:18:55.839
occupies the throne of Jesus.
00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:05.200
The Nazis are the defeated legions of hell, and the Holocaust is the ultimate revelation of evil against which all subsequent political and moral questions must be judged.
00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:22.559
You're not allowed to have nice things like community, traditional families, immigration restrictions, or any meaningful sense of national, ethnic, racial, or religious identity as a white person, because any deviation from the sacred doctrines of the post-war
consensus threatens to bring about Holocaust 2.0.
00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.000
To believe in any of these is to practice heresy.
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:31.279
Racism is the ultimate heresy, and white guilt is the original sin without a path to atonement.
00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:41.039
The further they further removed each generation, the further removed each generation becomes from 1945, the weaker its attachment to this haphazard, pseudo-religious worldview grows.
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:45.440
In 13 years, an entire century will have passed since the outbreak of the Second World War.
00:19:45.599 --> 00:20:06.079
The moralizing about the Holocaust, the obsessive fixation on stopping identity politics among native Westerners, the relentless insistence on feminism, diversity, and the ideological apparatus on the post-war order will resemble the exhausted dogmas of a dying secular religion whose founding revelation has lost its power over the living.
00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:23.839
This is obvious as the materialistic promise of the infinite growth and wealth has failed, and mass immigration diversity in the third world are an existential existential threat to Westerners who have no socioeconomic opportunities and the poor and a poor shot at family for formation.
00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:37.839
Talking about the post-war consensus, how this is basically Holocaustianity that comes out of the Second World War.
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:49.839
That narrative has been like completely ribbon the myth of the past century, where everything we see is seen through that prism.
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:57.599
And it finally seems like it's starting to break its hold on on the culture, but it's almost seems like it's too late.
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:02.319
Yeah, it's um it's interesting.
00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:07.680
I mean, I haven't thought about it from that perspective of like how World War II plays into all this, but it does make sense.
00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:10.640
Like that's the worst thing you could be called as a Nazi.
00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:12.880
Um it's it's kind of ironic.
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:19.920
My grandpa, he passed recently, but he actually served in the army shortly after World War II was over, and he was totally obsessed with that era.
00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:21.200
He has like books on books.
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:23.440
I have actually a stack of books he gave me over there.
00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:33.680
Um and but he was still very like, yeah, I don't like I don't he was very he he was he was very anti-immigration and especially from certain countries.
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:36.640
And so like he was still very based on certain things.
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:43.200
Um and I don't so I don't think that whole thing really got into his head the way that it's gotten into most boomers' heads.
00:21:43.359 --> 00:21:44.480
Um but yeah, I don't know.
00:21:44.559 --> 00:21:48.880
That that's just an interesting I'd have to read through that uh post
a couple times.
00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:56.720
I tried talking to my dad about this, and he he he just I don't know, it's just impossible.
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:09.359
Like he just they don't I don't know, they they Really bought into the whole like uh they thought we were gonna have a colorblind society and that we were going to end racism for good.
00:22:09.519 --> 00:22:30.000
And I think we were actually kind of on track for something decent in the late 90s, and then it all seemed to change under Obama, and and and on top of that, uh bringing in people from such drastically different cultures has really like started to wake people up.
00:22:30.079 --> 00:22:33.200
But I like is it too late is my question.
00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:36.640
Like what is what too late?
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:38.960
A restoration of Europe.
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:43.680
Like, I I almost feel like if Russia and Europe go to war, I'm rooting for Russia.
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.839
Because I don't know what happens if Europe wins.
00:22:49.759 --> 00:22:57.920
Yeah, I mean, whatever I mean, a restoration, and and I I assume you're maybe referencing like remigration, something like that.
00:22:58.160 --> 00:23:00.079
Um, it's gonna be ugly.
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:13.680
Like resolving this is gonna be ugly, letting it win is gonna be ugly, but I don't know that especially the elected officials in a lot of these European countries have what it takes to do what needs to be done to resolve things, like to restore things.
00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:25.759
And so I I feel like unless some and even a lot of like the so so-called conservatives in Europe that are winning elections right now or projected to win, I don't know that they're gonna hold up to what they're claiming to do either, unfortunately.
00:23:25.839 --> 00:23:26.319
So I don't know.
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:27.200
I hope I'm wrong about that.
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:36.799
But the worst part is that even from the church's perspective, like here, look at this one.
00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:52.720
In light of recent episodes of violence, the church in France is calling for a response to the anxiety expressed by young people and those who feel marginalized or left behind, with the Archbishop of Tours advocating for restoring democratic dialogue through intermediary institutions.
00:23:52.880 --> 00:23:56.319
Like, these people really think they're gonna talk their way out of this.
00:23:56.480 --> 00:24:01.599
They think it's there's something interesting that happens, and I noticed it under Francis.
00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:14.319
Like, anytime Francis had like Muslims come to the Vatican, or he went somewhere and he had like meetings with imams, there would be some crazy outbreak of violence between there'd be some like Muslim terrorist attack or something.
00:24:14.400 --> 00:24:21.599
And it's like every time they try to push this coexistence thing, something like this happens.
00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:47.200
Like Pope Leo
just left France, and and they're always talking about ecumenism and stuff like that, and it just seems like these men are living in an alternate universe, like they it's just uh preposterous to me that they think they're going to sit down and talk with people because I like they they they don't realize these people are from a totally different world than us.
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:50.880
I don't know how they could be this naive when they're seeing these things.
00:24:51.920 --> 00:24:57.039
They're I mean, they are largely very sheltered for the most part, I think.
00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:12.400
Um which is ironic because like they they have this air that they're you know they're not the they're no longer the princes of the church, you know, that are you know rich and living behind the hog and stuff like that.
00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:17.839
But I think for the most part they really are kind of sheltered from the reality of what the world is really like.
00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:24.000
But they're the ones that they're the ones that have the ability to like to fix this.
00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:26.000
It's it's infuriating.
00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:33.119
Yeah, I mean, just just a cursory study of Islam will tell you that this is something that is just not compatible with Western values.
00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:38.160
Like, there's really no and and it's not because we're we're intolerant, it's because Islam is intolerant.
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:45.039
And it and what it promotes is is inherently evil, things that we shouldn't tolerate, like child marriage and and other things.
00:25:45.279 --> 00:25:54.640
Um, so it's just uh I don't know, like I don't think these people are ignorant, but I think maybe they're hoping that Muslims Muslims will moderate on some of these things, or I don't know.
00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:57.039
Um I don't know, I don't even know how that would work.
00:25:57.279 --> 00:25:59.599
When did when did you come into the church?
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:02.000
Uh almost three years ago.
00:26:02.240 --> 00:26:03.519
Still still kind of a baby.
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:14.720
Oh, you you you you had now when you came in, did you uh did you kind of know how um messy things were?
00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:21.759
Yeah, I mean, I had been watching people like Taylor Marshall for a long time, even when I was a Protestant looking into Catholicism.
00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:32.799
Um, and I remember actually the the first time I was considering Catholicism and kind of chickened out, I uh was watching one of his streams, and he was he said I forgot what it what the topic was, but he was like, This is the worst time to become Catholic.
00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:35.039
And I was like, Great, cool.
00:26:35.599 --> 00:26:37.440
So I kind of had an idea.
00:26:38.079 --> 00:26:52.559
It's just it's it is rough, it's definitely rough to to come into because you get convinced of all the arguments, and then you come in and you just see these feckless men, and just like it's just like why, why?
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:54.240
I thought, oh my goodness.
00:26:54.400 --> 00:27:10.799
I just it's just very disappointing because I think one of the most dangerous things the modern hierarchy have done isn't like everybody gets all bent out of shape about like the like uh the uh umorsa titsia and things like that.
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:26.799
But I really think the most dangerous thing they've done is convince the world that immigration is the way forward, like like the the the US bishops' constant support for this flow of migration into our country is going to be the thing that undoes us.
00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:37.680
It's it's you know, it you you could argue about doctrine and all this stuff, but just the basic ability to live amongst neighbors who are like you and think like you.
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:54.079
And if there, if there's if there's any kind of crisis that happens in our country, even if it's not like some civil outbreak like that, if there's a if if there's a power outage throughout the world, if there is some kind of cyber attack or something like that, you don't know if your neighbors have the same values as you.
00:27:54.319 --> 00:28:04.240
Like you don't know if you could work together with the people who live around you because they may be from Afghanistan or they may be from Somalia or they may you don't know what those people are like.
00:28:04.319 --> 00:28:07.039
They could be the ones robbing your freaking house.
00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:08.400
Right.
00:28:08.559 --> 00:28:13.839
Yeah, and I think I did a video recently on um like Catholic teaching on immigration and going through St.
00:28:13.920 --> 00:28:18.160
Thomas Aquinas, the catechism, the catechism of the Council of Trent, and so on.
00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:28.319
And it does seem that there used to be an understanding that, yeah, you can you should accept immigrants who are in need, but it's not supposed to just be like, okay, flood the entire country.
00:28:28.480 --> 00:28:35.839
And the immigrants that come in, it there is an expectation that they're going to learn the language and respect the local heritage, including the religious identity of the country.
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:42.960
Um, because I think what we've kind of lost sight of, especially in the West, is that the culture of a country is kind of sacred in a way.
00:28:43.039 --> 00:28:44.960
Like there's something very valuable about it.
00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:48.319
And we've we've been taught, especially in America, that you don't have a culture.
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:50.720
White people don't have a culture, all this stuff.
00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:59.920
Um, and it's like, well, I mean, it's gotten a lot less cohesive because of all of the combination of cultures that we've allowed to come in without any assimilation.
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:18.319
But yeah, the, I mean, the church has always held that you are to respect the culture of the country you're
you're going to, and countries have a right to, you know, accept immigrants, refugees on a basis that is still um going to not like harm their country and and their their natives.
00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:19.119
So I don't know.
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:20.640
I I think a lot of that has been lost.
00:29:20.799 --> 00:29:22.160
Um it's really weird.
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:27.920
It's like very recent, it seems a lot of it has to do with money, right?
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:30.640
Like that, like it's just bizarre to me, man.
00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:32.960
I don't I don't know, I don't know what the way forward is.
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:41.119
The thing is, like when you compare Europe to America, America's a lot bigger, it's just geography-wise, like it's just way bigger.
00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:44.160
So there are places to get away from stuff like this.
00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:52.880
There's still always gonna be like enclaves you could go to to get away from it, where I don't, you know, Europe has apostatized.
00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:57.039
Like they have actually apostatized from from from the faith.
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:00.559
You can't separate European history from Catholic history.
00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:11.920
They are like the Catholic Church built Europe, and for them to have turned their back on God like this, everything we see happening there is just biblical justice.
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:18.240
Like, this is actually how God punished the Israelites when they fell into idol worship.
00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:27.839
Like, we're just seeing the natural consequences of turning your back on your God, and it's it's interesting because the same thing happened in Rome, right?
00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:38.160
Where, like as Christianity is coming up, like the pay, the worship of the pagan gods is going away, and their culture was kind of falling apart.
00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:46.799
But Christendom is what replaces it, and it kind of becomes the new glue that builds this new culture that comes out of the Roman Empire.
00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:49.359
What the hell comes after this, though?
00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:53.039
Like this is the end of this is the end of something.
00:30:53.279 --> 00:30:55.359
It's you're see Europe is done.
00:30:55.519 --> 00:31:03.200
Like, there's no unless they had unless you got a dictator in there in the style of mustache, man.
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:05.519
Like that's really what you would need.
00:31:05.759 --> 00:31:09.039
You would need a Hitler-style dictator, you would need a Franco.
00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:16.240
Yeah, you would need someone like that to go, I am stopping this immediately, and we are sending these people back.
00:31:16.400 --> 00:31:22.720
Because they could have a policy, even of anybody caught doing something like this is getting deported.
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:29.279
Like, if you if you even involve yourself in a situation like this where you're riding, you're getting deported, we're sending you
back, you're never coming back.
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:36.079
But they won't do that, like until, like you said, like the leadership in the European government just doesn't have what it takes to do it.
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:41.519
So it's going to take a strong man coming up and just saying, I've had enough, we're ending that.
00:31:41.759 --> 00:31:50.880
Look, in some ways, like I watched the whole Fuentes thing about like um about him saying, Oh, we need to put the GOP in line and vote Democrat and stuff.
00:31:51.039 --> 00:32:03.519
But something about Trump, as much as I dislike Trump, if stuff like this started popping off in American cities, he'd send the freaking National Guard in and he would not give a crap about it.
00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:04.480
You don't think so?
00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:06.559
Well, he did he do it in 2020?
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:09.359
No, I don't not in 2020, but I I don't know.
00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:12.160
And he and he lost an election because of it.
00:32:12.319 --> 00:32:14.400
If he didn't do it, then he's not doing it ever.
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:16.400
Oh my gosh, it would though.
00:32:16.559 --> 00:32:23.279
Yeah, I I'm I'm I think I'm less optimistic about what Trump would do in that situation, largely because of 2020.
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:27.920
Yeah, didn't he like try to send in the National Guard and then kind of got pushed out of it?
00:32:28.480 --> 00:32:32.480
The thing is 2020's the Minnesota governor sent in the National Guard himself.
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:36.160
Okay, yeah, 2020's weird because it was an election year.
00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:39.440
It was like the same thing with COVID, like Trump's response to COVID.
00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:43.279
You he like it was almost like he he had an election coming up in a few months.
00:32:43.359 --> 00:32:48.480
So you don't know why he did what he did, but maybe he was so worried about the election coming up.
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:50.640
But no, there's no yeah, you're right.
00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:53.440
He wouldn't do anything, he'd leave us, he'd leave us all.
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:55.359
I don't think he would.
00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:55.920
I don't know.
00:32:56.319 --> 00:32:58.559
Yeah, but you know what the difference in America is?
00:32:59.680 --> 00:33:03.759
I honestly, the only monument in New York City I would care to protect would be St.
00:33:03.839 --> 00:33:05.200
Patrick's Cathedral.
00:33:05.519 --> 00:33:09.039
Like if they burn the Freedom Tower down, I don't care.
00:33:09.200 --> 00:33:15.279
Like, it's not the same as the imagery in New York City is not the same as the imagery in France.
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:23.200
Like when you're watching them marching on the Louvre, there's something about that hands takes a catching up with the T.
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:28.079
That's a nice way of calling you a boomer.
00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:30.319
I just want to be hopeful.
00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:33.279
Uh I have no faith in Trump whatsoever, believe me.
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:35.200
Um, no, but I'm not kidding.
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:37.519
I don't care if New York City burns to the ground.
00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:38.079
Like, I really don't.
00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:51.279
It doesn't, there's nothing, there's nothing there's well, there's nothing there's nothing that like is uh the reason we have the heartache we have watching this happen in France is because we're Catholic.
00:33:51.680 --> 00:34:02.720
Like it, I I know everybody in America is looking at it, but there's something about being Catholic and watching formerly Catholic countries fall to Islam that is so heartbreaking.
00:34:02.960 --> 00:34:12.400
And like I'm going to Italy in five weeks, we're going to go and walk through churches that have been there for 1500 years, some of them.
00:34:12.559 --> 00:34:21.679
Uh, like and and you and when you go there, you're floored by like what your ancestors were able to build.
00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:30.159
There's there's something so amazing about walking into these churches, these cathedrals that were built a thousand years ago, and you're like, look at what our ancestors built.
00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:38.639
Because I what we have no connection to our ancestors other until you become Catholic and you start seeing, wow, our lineage goes back 2,000 years.
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:43.039
And when I'm watching this stuff happen in Europe, I'm I'm I'm heartbroken for that.
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:45.280
All I want is for these people to protect the cathedrals.
00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:51.679
I'm watching them marching on the on the Duomo in Milan, and I'm just like, do not let these animals near that thing, man.
00:34:52.159 --> 00:34:58.400
But but yeah, I mean after saying to I would hope to those people there's more to it than just than just that.
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:08.480
I mean, especially in in Europe and it in France and Italy, like some of these places, even if they're not you know, beautiful cathedrals, like they're they've been there for centuries, right?
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:16.880
I mean, these are the the you know, these people have lived there or the families have lived there for centuries, like even that town hall, right?
00:35:16.960 --> 00:35:20.400
That's that town hall 200 something years old.
00:35:20.559 --> 00:35:34.400
But it's it it does it, it does make like when you when you go, we went to um we went to Greece, and while we were there, we went to some island we went to that was like had ancient ruins on it.
00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:39.280
And you're looking at it, you're going, how the hell did they like let this place fall apart like this?
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:41.679
And what happens is stuff like this.
00:35:41.920 --> 00:35:49.920
You get roaming bands of barbarians come in and they destroy the place, then half the place was like taken for building materials.
00:35:50.000 --> 00:36:00.239
So there were these beautiful ancient structures
that were 1500 years old, 2000 years old, and people just went in and looted it for building material to take the stone and build stuff somewhere else.
00:36:00.559 --> 00:36:00.880
Wow.
00:36:01.039 --> 00:36:13.199
Well, and actually, a lot of those uh ruins in um in the Aegean on those islands, uh that were got that way because of an invasion of immigrants, yeah, the invasion of the sea peoples.
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:21.440
Yeah, well, you wonder if our cathedrals will be ruins for a future civilization, right?
00:36:21.519 --> 00:36:35.039
Like we go and see the Coliseum, or you you know, like the the thing is when Christians took over, they repurposed a lot of the pagan temples and made them into cathedrals and made them into churches and things like that.
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:36.239
What will those build?
00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:41.519
I mean, we're already seeing them being repurposed for museums and crap like yeah, they're gonna be.
00:36:41.760 --> 00:36:50.000
Like you're gonna you're going to see it's it's gonna it's gonna be like the Haji of Sophia and all these cathedrals.
00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:54.320
I'm less pessimistic about Europe long term.
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:57.440
I know you said earlier like Europe's gone, and I've seen a lot of that online.
00:36:57.519 --> 00:37:00.960
I think I'm I'm maybe like naively hopeful.
00:37:01.199 --> 00:37:13.760
I think a lot of people who are like vaguely political, who kind of believe the mainstream stuff of yeah, diversity is our strength and stuff like that, are now kind of seeing, okay, this isn't great, and that's why you're seeing a lot of these right-wing politicians surge in the polls.
00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:21.519
Now, those politicians probably aren't going to do what they promise, but at least there's they're they're getting elected on those promises, which means the populace want those.
00:37:21.679 --> 00:37:28.639
And once it becomes electorally beneficial to enact those policies, I think Europe will kind of move in that direction.
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:31.440
But uh, so that gives me some hope.
00:37:31.599 --> 00:37:38.159
And um, I'm less pessimistic about Europe than I think most people, but I could I could be I could be naive.
00:37:38.320 --> 00:37:38.559
I don't know.
00:37:38.639 --> 00:37:39.440
You could tell me.
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:43.519
I think you, I think, I think we're all if we think we're gonna vote our way out of any of this.
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:45.199
I think I think that's too naive.
00:37:47.119 --> 00:37:54.320
The only thing that gets us out of this is the Nineveh moment where everyone wears sackcloth and ash and begs God's forgiveness.
00:37:54.480 --> 00:37:58.880
Like that that's really what it would take to fix this whole scenario.
00:37:58.960 --> 00:38:04.320
The scenario doesn't get fixed through electing right-wing politicians because it it's the same thing when we elect.
00:38:04.719 --> 00:38:06.320
Not through electing, no.
00:38:08.320 --> 00:38:10.079
Well, that's the other option, right?
00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:13.039
The other option is Franco coming along.
00:38:13.199 --> 00:38:26.239
But yeah, what I'm describing is I it the electoral aspect is is part of it, but also I think just the idea that more people are moving right because of this, um, in a region of the world that's very far left.
00:38:26.480 --> 00:38:33.280
I think if if a Franco were to arise, I think a lot more people would be receptive to it now than would have been before these riots.
00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:43.440
In Europe, I mean Europe does have a have a history of I mean liberal democracy has less of a foothold there than it does here in the US.
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:48.000
Like our our national identity largely is based upon liberalism.
00:38:48.159 --> 00:38:50.239
Europe, Europe is not the same way.
00:38:51.440 --> 00:38:54.159
I still I still think we're thinking in political terms, though.
00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:57.760
Well, and everything in life is kind of political in one sense or another.
00:38:57.920 --> 00:39:04.320
Well, I mean secular, secularly political in in that I don't think this works like that, man.
00:39:04.400 --> 00:39:12.159
I I mean you you can put on sash sack sackcloth and ashes and pray, and also at the same time, like actively try to take back your country.
00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:25.199
Well, I'm I'm talking about like I I think I think it would take a a like a mass conversion of the populace or reversion of the populace to all like I think there's got to be some kind of reckoning with God.
00:39:25.280 --> 00:39:32.400
Like, God doesn't chastise us for no reason, he does it for that purpose, like to call us back to him.
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:36.079
And that's how the whole story of ancient Israel plays out.
00:39:36.159 --> 00:39:40.239
Like the whole point of him destroying the temple was to get his people to come back to him.
00:39:40.400 --> 00:39:44.159
And it's like, if that if that's I don't know, man.
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:45.679
I I see what you're saying.
00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:49.519
Yeah, so like there has to be a spiritual component to it, not purely a secular political.
00:39:50.159 --> 00:39:51.119
Yeah, I I agree.
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:53.519
And I think I think this kind of helps that as well.
00:39:53.599 --> 00:39:55.920
When you see people attacking like the statue of St.
00:39:56.079 --> 00:39:56.800
Joan, uh St.
00:39:56.960 --> 00:40:10.960
Joan of Arc, you start to realize, even if you're somebody who is maybe just vaguely religious or just not even religious at all, you start to realize oh, if our civil civilization isn't built on some identity rooted in Christ, it's gonna be built on an identity rooted in Muhammad.
00:40:11.119 --> 00:40:22.400
We don't really have a choice of this like nice, rosy, secular thing where we just, you know, have a perfect proportion of every religion represented and we all just get along because
there's gonna be one religion that wants to dominate.
00:40:22.480 --> 00:40:32.079
And so either we we maintain and enforce the identity of Catholicism in Europe, or we allow it to be taken over by Islam or whatever else.
00:40:32.239 --> 00:40:32.719
I don't know.
00:40:32.960 --> 00:40:38.000
Um, and so I think that's going to instill in people a desire to learn more about those Catholic roots.
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:38.800
I hope.
00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:39.519
I hope.
00:40:39.760 --> 00:40:47.039
Yeah, I think it's gonna, it's gonna also have to dip into hierarchy, man.
00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:50.719
Like I it's it's such an unavoidable conversation.
00:40:50.880 --> 00:41:08.719
Like I, you know, yeah because I know I know you definitely don't view it the way I do probably, but this has to this like uh the way I see the the the church right now, it's it has to go through some form of a death so that a resurrection can take place.
00:41:08.880 --> 00:41:20.239
And like there has to there has to be a it has to be from Catholics, like Catholics have to have this deep conversion and turning towards.
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:21.360
I don't know.
00:41:21.440 --> 00:41:24.880
I I I I I how apocalyptic are you?
00:41:25.519 --> 00:41:27.760
Do you think there's the apocalyptic?
00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:29.039
Because I certainly do.
00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:38.159
I think I I see this stuff happening, and I'm like, I go right to like our lady's vision of a city in ruins and the Pope walking amongst the dead bodies.
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:40.639
Like, that's what I see on the horizon.
00:41:40.880 --> 00:41:44.960
I see no one changing anything right now.
00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:46.559
I think they'll quell this thing.
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:57.360
I think this will die down for a little bit, and then I think in another year or two, this happens again, but they have way more power behind them, and you see Rome in flames.
00:41:57.519 --> 00:42:01.039
And that and that's just I can't help but see it that way.
00:42:01.360 --> 00:42:06.960
I mean, I I could see like if this once this gets under control, which I agree, I think it will soon.
00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:11.119
Uh, I could see everybody forgetting about it in like five minutes, and then it happens again.
00:42:11.199 --> 00:42:13.119
I'm like, oh yeah, I remember that happened last year.
00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:15.039
Um, I don't know.
00:42:15.119 --> 00:42:16.239
I tend to be optimistic.
00:42:16.480 --> 00:42:18.320
Maybe you can tell from like everything I've been saying.
00:42:18.400 --> 00:42:19.360
I tend to be pretty optimistic.
00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:21.920
I'm a short-term pessimist, long-term optimist.
00:42:22.079 --> 00:42:28.800
Like, I think the short term, I think the next next five, seven years are going to be really, really rough.
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:32.159
And then I think it could get better over time.
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:37.440
But I think that's I think that's a little little beyond the near few.
00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:41.840
I think the near, like the the short term is going to be very rough going forward.
00:42:43.679 --> 00:42:48.480
Yes, I am absolutely hoping that Rome is in flames after my pilgrimage.
00:42:48.639 --> 00:42:50.480
Like I wanted to be able to go.
00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:52.480
Hold on, please rephrase that.
00:42:52.559 --> 00:42:57.599
You're hoping that if yes, if it happens, all right.
00:42:57.679 --> 00:43:00.239
Listen, we're gonna we're gonna stop all this doom and gloom.
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:01.920
I want to get to know Adrian.
00:43:02.079 --> 00:43:03.280
Uh, we're gonna go over to Logos.
00:43:03.440 --> 00:43:04.480
Logos gonna be fun tonight.
00:43:04.559 --> 00:43:13.199
I want to uh we should have probably done this the other way around, but we wanted to kind of talk about this, but I want to get I want to get uh I want to get to Adrian's story.
00:43:13.280 --> 00:43:20.079
I want to see how he's handling being Catholic only three years in, what he thinks of the Catholic media space.
00:43:20.320 --> 00:43:22.159
We got a lot of stuff we're gonna talk about over there.
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:23.119
Yeah, let's just go to Logos.
00:43:26.159 --> 00:43:27.039
Um, all right.
00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:28.400
Uh do we have anything before we go?
00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:29.599
No, we did all our ads already.
00:43:29.679 --> 00:43:30.320
I think we can just go.
00:43:30.400 --> 00:43:34.000
Let's just let Adrian well hold on, let Adrian talk about his channel real quick.
00:43:34.239 --> 00:43:35.840
Yeah, Adrian, what do you have to promote?
00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:37.840
How can people find your channel?
00:43:38.159 --> 00:43:40.800
Yeah, I'm I'm everywhere at sips with Sarah.
00:43:40.880 --> 00:43:42.000
So I have a YouTube channel.
00:43:42.079 --> 00:43:47.039
I just posted a video today about uh Dan Belzerian and Sneeko trying to roast St.
00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:49.679
Paul, and um they're just so dumb.
00:43:50.079 --> 00:43:51.280
I watched that, and you're right.
00:43:51.360 --> 00:43:54.000
They are incredibly dumb.
00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:55.440
Yeah, yeah.
00:43:55.599 --> 00:44:02.320
So um, yeah, that's I talk about Catholic apologetics against Islam, against Protestantism, against whatever else is going on in the world.
00:44:02.480 --> 00:44:04.079
I also have an app called Refugia.
00:44:04.159 --> 00:44:04.960
It's on my hat here.
00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:16.320
It's a it's a prayer and study and spiritual devotion app that um I try to make it like an all-encompassing kind of thing, but uh, those are the two things I'm putting most of my effort in right now.
00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:21.199
Well, we want to we want to see uh anybody that's struggling in this arena do well.
00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:24.159
So, guys, go go throw some love over at Sips with Sarah.
