1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:05,200
Um, that was odd. I
mean just because the last time that I'd

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,560
gone to I mean, I had
tended to Antiochian Church for a year in

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:14,080
two thousand and seven. But even
that, you know, there's not you

4
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,559
don't stand up for most of that
in the US and Antiochian churches. Um.

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,640
I was used to the Latin Mass, and then Latin Mass you're constantly

6
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,760
on the kneeler and you're standing up
and then you're kneeling and and it was

7
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:31,480
just odd to me to be in
a Russian parish and getting used to,

8
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,679
over several months standing for the entire
liturgy. I mean, I know that's

9
00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:39,079
kind of an odd one. But
those are only two things I can think

10
00:00:39,119 --> 00:00:44,600
of that really were just things I
wasn't used to to had to adjust to.

11
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,439
Yeah, I think I think I
can kind of not like the whole

12
00:00:49,439 --> 00:00:53,520
standing thing to me, that kind
of seemed natural, um, but the

13
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:57,240
kind of like some parts of the
liturgy I kind of explained it precisely what,

14
00:00:57,399 --> 00:01:00,799
but like some parts of the liturgy
kind of like chanting was definitely took

15
00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:03,480
me some time to get used to
it. Not because like not a problem

16
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,760
that I had with chanting, it's
just that I never liked that kind of

17
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,480
music. It's not you know,
it's holy music, so it's not something

18
00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:14,560
that is proper to talk about in
terms of personal preference. But now I'm

19
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,760
kind of like, yeah, like
it's something that now I kind of like

20
00:01:17,799 --> 00:01:21,560
sing some hymns in my head sometimes
because it's kind of like more upbeat and

21
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,480
cheery or some chances that are really
cool. But like for the first time,

22
00:01:25,519 --> 00:01:27,599
it kind of because I come from
a Muslim country, right, so

23
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:32,560
we're used to calls to prayer,
used to the asan, and that that

24
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,480
was always annoying to me. Just
so hearing something like that was kind of

25
00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:40,120
like, I mean, I kind
of I kind of don't want this,

26
00:01:40,239 --> 00:01:42,079
right, but it's kind of like, you know, with in the proper

27
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:48,640
context, you start to appreciate that
kind of chanting and melody. That's something

28
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,680
that I can say for at least
for myself, but I think that's something

29
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:53,239
that most people don't have experienced that. So we got some a couple of

30
00:01:53,239 --> 00:02:00,959
other super chats, Mark with twenty
dollars super Chat again really appreciated. Thank

31
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,359
you, Mark. He says,
I take more products are seeing people turned

32
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,159
towards the East, and certainly used
the smearss of aid to put up a

33
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:09,919
barrier. I think so too.
Yeah, and recently using shooting interviews to

34
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:15,199
bolster their positions, and that's something
that they do. Taltson Shooting seems odd

35
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,400
to me. I'll say some stuff
briefly about him. He always tried to

36
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,639
Protestantize Orthodoxy. Even though he had
like one decent book about presubpositionism, he

37
00:02:23,719 --> 00:02:27,960
always when he read his blogs and
articles. I noticed this because a couple

38
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,120
of a couple of friends posted them
to me to kind of like, look,

39
00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:34,319
here's piano substitution at home in Orthodoxy
and it's from shooting, ye,

40
00:02:34,479 --> 00:02:37,080
And I'll read about it and it's
like the arguments aren't really that good.

41
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,719
I'm not really convinced. But you
know, he always tried to Protestantize Orthodoxy

42
00:02:40,759 --> 00:02:44,800
and so they're using him as the
poster boy. It's like, oh,

43
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,000
look he was Orthodox and he became
Protestant. But for like every shooting,

44
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:54,120
they're like ten opposite people, you
know, going from not ten thousands,

45
00:02:54,199 --> 00:03:00,439
there's a thousand people that are moving
from Protestantism to Orthodoxy. So I mean,

46
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,439
I guess I'm happy that they finally
found someone they can use after like

47
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:13,120
what like five six, seven years
of YouTube apologetics from various people. Cool,

48
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:20,560
but that's not really impressive in my
opinion. Yeah, I mean one

49
00:03:20,599 --> 00:03:23,599
thing that I guess what's what's sad
about a lot of the online apologetic sphere.

50
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,560
And one of the reasons I think
that we have the success that we've

51
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:38,560
had is that a lot of people
rely on personal experiences, drama, all

52
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:42,080
of the things that are bad reasons, and a lot of people are just

53
00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:49,159
banking on bad reasons to not be
Orthodox or to be something else. And

54
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,479
I mean, I'm sure Shooting has
various arguments that he makes and points that

55
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,080
he makes. I'm not saying that
he doesn't make those points, but it's

56
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,639
like for a lot of people,
oh we got one, right, It's

57
00:04:00,639 --> 00:04:02,560
like, oh, we finally got
one. Oh we got somebody who's not

58
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,840
hanging out with Jay and David anymore. We got him. And they think

59
00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:13,039
that like this is really going to
be a driving factor in people not becoming

60
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,199
Orthodox or becoming Roman Catholic or Protestant
or something, and these kinds of things

61
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,879
don't. This is not ultimately what's
going to decide anything. Just like talking

62
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:26,399
about moral corruption, it might be
relevant, but it's not going to be

63
00:04:26,439 --> 00:04:32,759
the ultimate reason why this or that
church or religion isn't true. So I

64
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,160
mean at a certain level, that's
that's different depending upon the system. Like

65
00:04:36,199 --> 00:04:40,759
in Roman Catholic theology, if we
were just sitting around saying that, oh,

66
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,160
well, the pope is an immoral
person, and look how many immoral

67
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:47,680
priests there are, if that was
our only argument, right, like the

68
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,519
way Lofton thinks that we argue right, that would not be a very good

69
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:56,040
argument, not be enough. But
that's never been the point. Nobody's ever

70
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,279
been saying that, oh well,
let's find out who has less corruption,

71
00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:01,680
and let's these are all just bad
reasons. Ultimately, it's going to have

72
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:06,360
to come down to which position is
true or false. That's it. You're

73
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,839
not going to determine this on the
basis of who can you know, pull

74
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,920
up more drama on this or that
online person. That's not. Ultimately,

75
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,399
that's only going to work for the
lowest tier people. And if you want

76
00:05:18,439 --> 00:05:23,160
to pack your ranks with the lowest
tier people, go for it, because

77
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,480
but that's not gonna last very long, and that's not going to give you

78
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:30,439
much strength. So I don't think
it really Ultimately, it's not gonna matter.

79
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:31,959
I mean, you can find people
who switch religions all the time.

80
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,399
So what if there's a guy who
used to be this and now he's that.

81
00:05:38,519 --> 00:05:43,000
I mean, I've changed my position. So what I think that you

82
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,759
know, when you look at what
shooting is real issues were It's like,

83
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,720
dude, I mean, how are
you even Orthodox that long? And you

84
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:55,639
thought the substitutionary atonement was true?
Like where were you getting your theology?

85
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,399
That's like a that's something you should
have learned within like the first year or

86
00:05:59,439 --> 00:06:02,120
two of an Orthodoxy. And so
here this guy's about to be a priest

87
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,439
and he still thinks penal substitution is
true. I mean that's kind of embarrassing.

88
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,920
Yeah, definitely. And one thing
is kind of relevant because something that

89
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,600
happened recently in Rocrep is I guess
they I guess they intitute a new policy

90
00:06:18,759 --> 00:06:24,480
or for like, if a priest
is going from a different sect to Orthodoxy,

91
00:06:24,519 --> 00:06:27,360
they're gonna be like, make it
wait for three years before they receive

92
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,480
him as a priest because of things
like this. It was something like this,

93
00:06:30,879 --> 00:06:34,480
and and I think that's definitely,
especially today, that's certainly a policy

94
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:39,560
that needs to be considered at the
very least, because yeah, I mean,

95
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,959
this just goes to show that,
you know, proper education is something

96
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,720
important. Paula Philippe, thank you
for the two. Brazilian reality doesn't really

97
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,360
show anything, so I assume he
didn't really right, just donated, so

98
00:06:51,439 --> 00:06:56,759
appreciate man. Thank you. Frankie
d Jay. I have really been struggling

99
00:06:56,759 --> 00:07:00,079
with evolution as an explanatory paradigm for
human behavior. Do you have any book

100
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,839
recommendations for breaking out of that?
So let me say that, like,

101
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:11,839
if you listen to somebody like Professor
Edward Dutton, like when he describes evolutionary

102
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:17,199
psychology and human action and interaction at
a sociological level, there's nothing wrong with

103
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:24,199
that, and it makes perfect sense
because all he's describing is adaptation, and

104
00:07:24,759 --> 00:07:29,199
we do, as human beings,
adapt to things, and that's a valid

105
00:07:29,319 --> 00:07:35,000
form of evolution. But that's different
than the notion of the transmutation of species

106
00:07:35,319 --> 00:07:40,560
from a single originator. Right,
that's a different thing. Now. I

107
00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:44,240
know that in academia those are connected, but I'm saying that from our perspective,

108
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,920
there's nothing wrong with saying that beings
or species adapt to their environment and

109
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:57,399
a lot of what is evolutionary psychology
is useful in that way. So that's

110
00:07:57,439 --> 00:07:59,720
true. I don't have a problem
with any of that. Like, for

111
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:05,480
example, he does podcasts where he
talks about the history of witchcraft and how

112
00:08:05,639 --> 00:08:15,319
feminism arises out of witchcraft. Because
of the biological imperatives for the for members

113
00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:20,480
of the species that reproduce, right, they are usually able to get along

114
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:26,959
in society. They're not abnormal,
they're not they're not forced to the fringe.

115
00:08:26,439 --> 00:08:31,960
Whereas in the time, say when
witchcraft was beginning to be popular in

116
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,080
the Middle Ages, this these were
the proto feminists because they were the ugos,

117
00:08:37,639 --> 00:08:41,639
they were the nasty hags right,
that couldn't get a man, and

118
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:50,480
so they became they found ideological systems
that would validate them, such as witchcraft,

119
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,720
right, and so he has a
great analysis of that, and he's

120
00:08:54,759 --> 00:09:00,159
looking at it from an evolutionary psychology
perspective. But I don't have to.

121
00:09:00,879 --> 00:09:05,080
I can listen to that and believe
that without accepting the notion of, you

122
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,720
know, the evolution of all species
from a single organism. I mean,

123
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:16,320
I think that's ludicrous and nuts.
So books that break out of that paradigm.

124
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,360
Sarah from Roses Justice Creation Early Man, who is a classic. I

125
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,799
mean, a lot of this book
is Church fathers, and a lot of

126
00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:28,799
this book is critiquing the philosophy of
evolution. So I've always critiqued it from

127
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,000
I'm not a scientist, so I
don't critique it from the perspective of biological

128
00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:37,399
science. I critique it from the
perspective of philosophy. But you know,

129
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,320
there's a good essay in the books, sort of Nosis by Titus Bruckhart that's

130
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,639
probably the best sixty page critique of
philosophy that I've ever read. So I

131
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:52,399
would recommend that. Yeah, definitely
recommend. And Paulo, I guess it's

132
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:56,559
kind of he said another tude.
Basically probably he didn't show, but I

133
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:01,279
saw his question, so will answer
that. He says, I became Orthodox

134
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,759
online, but here in Brazil has
almost no Orthodox church. What should I

135
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:09,840
do? I think, definitely,
And if you join the Orthodized Christian Discord,

136
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,039
now people are going to say,
oh, your discord church. No.

137
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,080
If you go to the Ortodized Christian
Discord, you can find some priests

138
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,960
there like Father Justin for example,
um and Father Mihail. These are some

139
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,720
priests that you can contact and kind
of like have them help you and so

140
00:10:26,799 --> 00:10:30,000
that when you get you know,
at a certain point they can baptize you,

141
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,159
and and and and all that kind
of stuff. Um. Other than

142
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,720
that, I heard some Brazilians having
Orthodox churches there. I don't know which

143
00:10:37,759 --> 00:10:39,240
part of Brazil you're living. It's
a big country zone. You know,

144
00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:43,759
it's possible that it's nowhere near you. But um, you can definitely contact

145
00:10:45,759 --> 00:10:48,440
some of the priests that we have
in the discord. As I said,

146
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:54,240
father justin talk about this with him. What I will recommend you personally is

147
00:10:54,399 --> 00:11:00,200
do do the prayers right, read
scripture, do the Orthodox prayers, um,

148
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,159
and just you know, learn more
about the faith every single day and

149
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:09,039
pray for you know, you to
be baptized and for this to be resolved.

150
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,399
And UM, work on resolving that
to the best of your capacity,

151
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:18,879
and God will help you, you
know, over time. And this will

152
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,000
be I suppose an experience a test
that you will go through. Right,

153
00:11:22,039 --> 00:11:26,200
So even if you had a church
near you, you know, it won't

154
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,320
be like an instance, but like
oh okay, you're baptized instantly or anything,

155
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,399
even that will have like a trial
period. So maybe this is your

156
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,559
trop that's the way I will kind
of look at it, because this isn't

157
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,120
the first time I'm kind of hearing
this question, But I think this is

158
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:43,480
kind of like and obviously get spiritual
guidance from the people from priests, trustable

159
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,240
priests that can help you with your
situation. Right. So as I said,

160
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,679
I listen to some of the people, uh in a dust where you

161
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,200
can look at living Orthodox part and
behird Bylka. He also helps out with

162
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,519
this kind of stuff. So you
have a couple of options. What would

163
00:11:56,519 --> 00:11:58,440
you say, jay to someone who
doesn't have an Orthodox church need. I

164
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:03,559
mean, someone was in a similar
situation in Ecuador and he had to kind

165
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,799
of just search around and eventually he
was put in contact with a Serbian Orthodox

166
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:13,240
priest eight hours away. So but
he was still able to be baptized.

167
00:12:13,279 --> 00:12:18,440
And they're still able to have church. Uh, you know in periodic increments,

168
00:12:18,519 --> 00:12:22,879
so it's not impossible. Um,
and you know you can you can

169
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:28,000
organize it eventually to where you can
find somebody who will baptize you. Yeah,

170
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:33,039
definitely. So hopefully hopefully that helped
you out to Paula, And yeah,

171
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,000
sorry for making you super chat twice. A guess I should have seen

172
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,759
the question it, but it didn't. It just didn't appear on stream yard.

173
00:12:37,799 --> 00:12:41,919
That's why. Um, so we
got we got a couple more super

174
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:48,879
chats. Um Alex did a ten
pounds super chat asks what is your stance

175
00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:52,159
on the Book of Enoch? Greetings
from London. So this is pretty popular,

176
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,039
right, people like to talk about
the Book of Phoenoch. Uh,

177
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,600
well, we'll just say to this
Jane, because the main argument said,

178
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,639
all this part of biblical canon,
it's part of eachypy can. But you

179
00:13:01,639 --> 00:13:07,639
know you're not part of the sided
in the Book of Jews. So I

180
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,919
don't believe in sold of scriptura.
So I don't have any problem with extra

181
00:13:11,919 --> 00:13:16,159
canonical books having valid traditions. So
I think that the Book of Enoch is

182
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:24,639
a describing a valid a tradition of
the angels from Genesis six. And you

183
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,320
know, if we take the Duro
canon serious, there's at least three places

184
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:33,440
in the Duro canon that affirm that
Genesis six is talking about actual titans or

185
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,279
giants. So, I mean,
I've always had the view that Genesis six

186
00:13:37,399 --> 00:13:41,200
is talking about angels, even though
that's a minority position. I mean,

187
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:46,159
the first three centuries of the Church
Father is the majority position believe that it's

188
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,919
angels. After Augustine, that shifts
in the majority position becomes that it's just

189
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,600
kind of powerful ancient war lords and
people like Nimrod or something like this.

190
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,720
So the giants, that is so, But I've always thought it was,

191
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,600
Uh, giants. I've never changed
my view on that, just because of

192
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:09,120
the Book of Jude And if you're
Orthodox and you have you know, the

193
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,879
full Deutero canon. Uh. There's
again MacCabe is one of the Maccabee's texts

194
00:14:15,639 --> 00:14:20,639
Judith Uh. And one other text
maybe in I forget the other there's three

195
00:14:20,639 --> 00:14:30,000
texts that that explicitly explain that Genesis
six is talking about actual titans. So

196
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,200
to me, that's that's what it
ought to be. But I don't like,

197
00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:39,159
I don't I think this is a
legitimate area where people could disagree theologically.

198
00:14:39,159 --> 00:14:43,399
There's no you're not a heretic if
you if you doubt giants, you

199
00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:48,320
know what I mean. Yeah,
And and there's there's different patrician positions on

200
00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:52,360
the giants as as well. Yeah. One of the reasons I've noticed people

201
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,080
like the giants theeries that allows them
to explain to the violence parts of the

202
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:01,000
Old Testament. It allows them to
understand it much cleared. This is violence

203
00:15:01,039 --> 00:15:03,519
against those giants, and so it
kind of feels like, oh, okay,

204
00:15:03,559 --> 00:15:07,559
that sheds the new lights, right, But that's what Enix said.

205
00:15:07,639 --> 00:15:09,919
Yeah, m hmm. I mean
that's one of the reasons for the flood.

206
00:15:11,039 --> 00:15:16,039
Is there is that so uh and
and also because it sounds really cool

207
00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:22,360
and necessity. But I that's that's
I see here. I mean, if

208
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,480
you look at the end of Judith, I'm going from memory. I haven't

209
00:15:24,519 --> 00:15:26,039
looked at this in a long time. I think it's Judith's like sixteen.

210
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:33,240
I forget the Maccabe's text. Uh, here it is. Yeah, So

211
00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:45,279
second third Maccabee's two Sorry Jay,
you're muted. Uh yeah, mute yourself

212
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,159
please. Yeah, it's this has
a this court has a short in it,

213
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:54,480
so if it gets touched, it
automatically mutes. But second Maccabee's excuse

214
00:15:54,519 --> 00:16:02,039
me. Third Maccabee's two sites.
It says that it's speaking of God,

215
00:16:02,159 --> 00:16:07,480
you destroyed those who acted unjustly,
amongst whom were the giants who trusted physical

216
00:16:07,519 --> 00:16:11,320
strength and boldness, and you brought
the great flood. So you might say,

217
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:17,200
well, that's just uh you know
the warrior class or the you know,

218
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,799
the nimrods that want to be worshiped. But if you go and look

219
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,960
at what Judath says, I think
the term in Judith sixteen is Judah sixteen.

220
00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:26,960
By the way, I think the
term is the Titans. So it's

221
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:32,159
actually it's even clearer in Judith.
Does that make sense? Do you want

222
00:16:32,159 --> 00:16:34,360
me to find the text? I
can do that, you can take.

223
00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:44,080
Yeah. So Judith sixteen says,
but the Lord Almighty thwarted them his enemies

224
00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:48,799
by the hand of a woman.
For the mighty men did not fall by

225
00:16:48,879 --> 00:16:52,720
young men, nor were the Titans
and their sons struck down. Nor did

226
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:57,639
the giant the tall giants attack them. But Judith, in the beauty of

227
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:03,279
her appearance, disabled them. And
there's another text Baruk three twenty four to

228
00:17:03,359 --> 00:17:12,839
twenty seven and Wisdom sixteen seven,
and they discuss the least being Titans as

229
00:17:12,839 --> 00:17:18,400
well. Anyway, I don't know, you can go look these texts everyone,

230
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,200
but they all they discussed the Titans
basically. Yeah, and you've mentioned

231
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,400
Paruk. I kind of it kind
of came to my mind. It's very

232
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,640
much off topic. But you know, when it comes to the kind of

233
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:34,599
detercanonical debates like about the dutricanonical books
within Protestants and Orchdocks and Roman Catholics and

234
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:41,160
so um. And this is the
point I remember you making in certain wisdom

235
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,680
texts in the dutricanonical books, where
a lot of them prophesied Christ. Right.

236
00:17:44,759 --> 00:17:48,000
Like, So when you mentioned Baruk, I think Beru thirty six to

237
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:53,279
thirty eight straight up says something like
the wisdom of that God descended on earth

238
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,599
and conversed with men, right,
So, like something very explicit like that,

239
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:02,640
and like there's very different from these
other dutreconomical books like that as well.

240
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,799
I think it was from Yeah,
it's from the Dewey Rayms edition.

241
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,079
Can see this. This is our
God, and there shall no other be

242
00:18:08,079 --> 00:18:12,079
accounted of him, comparison of him. He found outs all debate of knowledge

243
00:18:12,079 --> 00:18:15,279
and gave it to Jacob, his
servant, and to Israel's beloved afterwards.

244
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:19,920
He was seen upon earth and conversed
with men, right. So that's yeah,

245
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,359
yeah, So I think that kind
of tells you that, you know,

246
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:29,440
there's a reason why these dutroeconomical books
were still considered to be important by

247
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,440
Christians historically. It's because they were
prophesying Christ. Yeah, yeah, they

248
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,599
have. They have exactly prophetic texts. There are referenced many many times a

249
00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:42,839
New Testament. I understand that.
So is the book of menech but Um.

250
00:18:44,559 --> 00:18:48,880
For example, Baruck three says,
Oh, Israel, how great is

251
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,799
the house of God? How far
reaching other places that he possesses? It

252
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,000
is great, It has no end. It is high and immeasurable. The

253
00:18:56,079 --> 00:18:59,880
giants that were born there, those
that were renowned from the beginning, became

254
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,480
very large in size, and we're
very skilled in war. God did not

255
00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:06,200
choose them, nor did he grant
them the way of knowledge. Instead,

256
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,839
they perished because they failed to attain
wisdom. They perished through their thoughtless counsel.

257
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:18,519
There's one more tax. Wisdom sixteen
seven also mentions the Titans, and

258
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,480
again to me, these are just
I forgot. There's four of them.

259
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:26,920
These are four taxs that to me
suggests that if we take the Dudo canon

260
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:33,400
seriously, then it's not just talking
about men, it says. Wisdom sixteen

261
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:44,039
seven says, excuse me, it's
Sirac sixteen seven. There was no atonement

262
00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:47,599
for the ancient giants who turned away
from God because of their strength he did

263
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:52,039
not spare the cities in which Lots
sojourned, whom he detested because of their

264
00:19:52,119 --> 00:20:03,880
arrogance. Anyway, Yeah, five
pounds donation from Louis Carroll. Think you

265
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:08,599
appreciate the donation. He asks most
straightforward arguments against the papacy, any easy

266
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:15,319
to understand resources responding to arguments like
Jesus built church on Peter de roc for

267
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,839
low i q lay person. So
every John Peter talks about the rock or

268
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:23,319
the cornerstone, it's not referring to
him, it's referring to the person of

269
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:33,920
Christ. The ancient canons equate the
jurisdiction of Rome to other jurisdictions. Every

270
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:41,119
Ecumenical council when they discuss canons relating
to bishops and jurisdictions in Rome. There's

271
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:48,640
never any statement of universality in the
universal in the ecumenical Canons. So nothing

272
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,119
of the Acumenical Council's dogmatic statements over
the canons. And you see a consistent

273
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:59,559
pattern. You can find the thirteen
fifteen page essay at my website that covers

274
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,160
all the examples from all the Ecumenical
councils of the cannons that conflict with Vatican

275
00:21:03,279 --> 00:21:11,799
one. Those are easy examples.
I mean the fifth councils called to rebuke

276
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:18,400
the Pope Vigilius. We know that
now from the Price Book, right um,

277
00:21:18,519 --> 00:21:22,559
Honorius is you know, condemned as
a heretic, not once, but

278
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,799
three times over. And it's not
because he made a mistake he's or oh

279
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,359
he was all right, but you
know now he actually was. It is

280
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:36,599
called a heretic three times over,
so he taught theological error. How could

281
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,559
the Vatican one be view be correct
if an ecumenical council can excommunicate and condemn

282
00:21:41,559 --> 00:21:47,960
a pope. I mean that means
that the papacy is not indeffectable because Honoria

283
00:21:48,079 --> 00:21:52,359
is deffected. I mean, it's
very simple. So these are straightforward arguments.

284
00:21:52,599 --> 00:21:57,160
Other arguments alike in the Middle Ages, the papacy under the Gregorian reforms,

285
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:02,839
even admitted by the by Roman Catholics
in the eleventh century. In the

286
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,920
Gregorian Reforms, you have a revolution
in the papacy. So if you know,

287
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:12,079
Eve's Kongar and other people can write
books admitting that the papacy underwent a

288
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:17,640
revolution, how can you accuse the
Orthodox who want to believe and operate the

289
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,880
way things operate in the first thousand
years of being the innovators, or of

290
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,400
being the schismatics is rom and innovated
by their own admissions, by their own

291
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,759
theologians. I mean. The other
great argument that David has pointed out is

292
00:22:29,799 --> 00:22:36,880
that Uniate the existence of Uniates itself
refutes the papacy. And guess what,

293
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,440
a lot of Roman Catholics are just
now understanding the implications of this state.

294
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,400
It took them like three years,
I think, to realize this. But

295
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:52,279
I'm seeing debates between Uniates and Latin
right, Roman Catholics on it is acceptable

296
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,200
to venerate Saint Gregor Polmus as a
Satan now right, because for years they

297
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,279
say, oh, Saint Gregor Polymus
is a heretic, but their own church

298
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:06,640
accepted by the alternity off the Pope
himself, which they cannot deny, that

299
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,359
Saint Gregor Plymus is a saint,
is a holy t elusion that is completely

300
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,480
allowable to celebrate him. And it's
not just Saint Gregor Palmus if you think

301
00:23:15,559 --> 00:23:22,880
that's that's just it. Even Nestorious
tis that the Nestorians, basically they are

302
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,839
also celebrated in the Sierra Malabar and
the Kaldian liturgy, so exactly exactly.

303
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:33,119
So you've got all of these people
that are heretics for centuries and now they're

304
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,480
quote saints that Roman callis can venerate. Yeah, and something to do with

305
00:23:37,559 --> 00:23:41,039
truth. It's just literally whatever the
papast he says at this time becomes true.

306
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:49,319
And one of the reasons why since
the nineteen forties they can now revere

307
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:56,799
people who were for centuries heretics is
because of famous Uniate historians and writers like

308
00:23:56,519 --> 00:24:00,799
Francis Dvornick. He's a Uniate priest
who, by the way, wrote a

309
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:03,000
giant book on the history of intelligence
agencies. Well, he wrote this book

310
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:08,240
in nineteen forty eight called the Phocian
Schism, which basically rehabilitated Photius. Oh

311
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,839
he's cool now, he's so the
very guy who was like the image of

312
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:18,319
the Orthodox schismatic for a thousand years. Oh no, he's cool. He's

313
00:24:18,319 --> 00:24:21,920
a saint now. I mean that
alone ought to tell you that the Roman

314
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:26,599
Catholic system is not about theological truth
that is objective, that is unchanging.

315
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:34,319
It's an evolving doctrine and theology.
And a lot of them admit this,

316
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:41,599
right, they say, if it
evolves, yeah, oh maybe maybe Origin

317
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,799
is a saint now, and some
of them will be like yeah, yeah,

318
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,839
yeah, yeah they okay, so
it doesn't matter if you teach the

319
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,079
Trinity anymore. Mh They call Origin
a church foder old radio. They culter

320
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,359
TOOLI the church foder Old rady.
So it's just one more step left in

321
00:24:56,599 --> 00:25:02,920
that direction. And that's exactly where
the perennialism in the natural theology Aboutican too

322
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:11,480
goes hmm exactly and what it's a
lot of it. Another example I'd use

323
00:25:11,799 --> 00:25:14,960
to kind of like use against papacis
kind of like the four Techomenical Council,

324
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,240
where the Tone of Leo is hailed
as this ex cathedral the document or Christology

325
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:25,359
is not only heavily critiqued by the
very bishops that are directly under his jurisdiction,

326
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:30,799
the Illyrian bishops, it was the
Council itself a skeptical on the document,

327
00:25:30,839 --> 00:25:34,519
which is what resulted in the five
day Theological Commission ran by the Patriarch

328
00:25:34,599 --> 00:25:41,480
of Constants, Noble Patriarch Anatolius Cross
referencing the right the Tone of Leo with

329
00:25:41,599 --> 00:25:44,440
the writings of Saint kil of Alexandria. Right. This is an argument that

330
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,200
Ortox have been stored to use against
Monophysites, but it's an argument we can

331
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:52,279
use against Roman Catholics to show that, well, like, just ask yourselves

332
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:56,480
this, Roman Catholics, can this
happen today? Literally? Can a pope

333
00:25:56,519 --> 00:26:00,160
say in a council and an ecumenical
council that he didn't even call, Right,

334
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,559
Let's say there's an excomunical council.
The pope didn't even call it.

335
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,279
Someone else called, and the pope
goes and he writes a theological document and

336
00:26:07,279 --> 00:26:10,880
he says, this is ex cathedral. You're going to accept this, And

337
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,279
then his own bishops say, actually, this is heretical. I'm not going

338
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,960
to accept this. You better fix
this or I have questions about this document.

339
00:26:18,559 --> 00:26:22,680
And then the other bishops say,
oh, okay, let's let's cross

340
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:27,279
reference this with the writings of saints
and see whether it makes sense. Imagic,

341
00:26:27,319 --> 00:26:30,279
Can this happen today in the Roman
Catholic Church? Absolutely not. It

342
00:26:30,319 --> 00:26:33,599
cannot happen in a Roman because this
is not the ecclesiology of the Roman Catholic

343
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:38,319
Church, right, and people don't
really yet this And the doctrinal development point

344
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,680
so this needs to be made clear, is that the Roman Catholic understanding of

345
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:49,119
doctrinal development is the idea that that
doctrine that is originally EVI, David,

346
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,160
you want to take this question.
I gotta use the bathroom. I gotta

347
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,960
whiz. Yeah, yeah, I'll
take the question. Yeah. Sure.

348
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,759
The basic premise of doctoral development that
use this for icon veneration too, right,

349
00:27:00,799 --> 00:27:06,960
The basic premise is that the doctrine
that developed in the in the Vay,

350
00:27:07,039 --> 00:27:11,799
that it developed originally was not Apostolic. So let me talk about icon

351
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:18,359
veneration. For example, Roman Catholics
will literally say, like in Dave admitted

352
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,839
this, right transhorned, They've already
admitted this. They will say icon veneration

353
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,200
is not Apostolic. They will say
it's not apostolic, it was not supposed

354
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:30,799
to be part of but it developed
logically too icon veneration and it's legitimate because

355
00:27:30,839 --> 00:27:33,359
it makes sense. Right, that's
the main argument that they use. It

356
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,799
just makes sense. Now, it's
the same thing with the papacy, right,

357
00:27:37,079 --> 00:27:41,319
the papacy did not really exist in
the in the Vatican one form.

358
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:45,720
It just developed into the Vatican one
form. So this is the basic argument

359
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:52,039
of Numanism. So we as Orthodox, we don't believe in Numan's idea of

360
00:27:52,039 --> 00:27:56,240
doctrine development. When we speak about
doctrinal developments, we say this doctrine was

361
00:27:56,279 --> 00:28:00,559
always apostolic. It is routed or
under standing of this doctrine. While this

362
00:28:00,599 --> 00:28:04,559
doctrine remains static the same as it
was established from the from the get go,

363
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,759
this doctrine is just developed in this
sense or understanding or concepts of theological

364
00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:15,079
ideas are become better over time.
This sense of development is not heretical,

365
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:21,039
but the sense of Roman Catholic development, where the doctrine itself changes, that

366
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:26,240
is heretical. That is unacceptable.
And this is something that again Ybara himself

367
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:32,880
admits, and I think his debate
against Father Patrick. I'm not too sure,

368
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,160
but I think he admits this in
his debate against Father Patrick. So

369
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:41,480
he admits that the papacy is doctrine
developed. So it's that that just ends

370
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,839
the debate because it just means that
it's not apostolic if it is. If

371
00:28:44,839 --> 00:28:48,519
it is not an apostolic, then
it's not a true doctrine. There's a

372
00:28:48,559 --> 00:28:53,599
double mind the thing going on here, which is difficult because on the one

373
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,759
hand, you have you know,
Newman and people arguing for development of doctrine.

374
00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:02,680
And then around the same time you
have Pious the Tenth, the pope

375
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,640
writing Pacinity Dominici, where he says
that the notion of the evolution of dogma

376
00:29:07,839 --> 00:29:11,559
is a Modernist heresy. So that's
the most famous and cyclical condemning the modernists,

377
00:29:11,559 --> 00:29:17,559
and he basically says that modernism is
the conglomeration of all heresies, and

378
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:22,200
it's any it's all the heresies into
one. And one of those key elements

379
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,200
is that everything is in the process
of evolving and moving. You could have

380
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,799
never had this without the papacy first
innovating and being an evolving institution. Back

381
00:29:30,839 --> 00:29:36,480
in the Gregorian reforms. This is
even argued by Roman cathoe theologians now like

382
00:29:36,519 --> 00:29:40,640
the Eaves Kongar in his I think
it's his nine hundred years together or something

383
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:47,279
like that, so admitting that,
yeah, we underwent evolution, underwent massive

384
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,559
renovation and change in the church,
by which they say this is a good

385
00:29:51,559 --> 00:29:53,720
thing. But then by the time
of Pious the Tenth, when this is

386
00:29:53,759 --> 00:29:57,680
being used in quote liberal ways,
he says, no, no, we

387
00:29:57,759 --> 00:30:02,759
got to get rid of this idea
the evolution of dogma. And they'll try

388
00:30:02,759 --> 00:30:07,599
to come out with a million different
Scholastic evolution is not development to those are

389
00:30:07,599 --> 00:30:10,680
different things. Let me give you
a new made up scholastic different. Now

390
00:30:10,759 --> 00:30:15,119
it doesn't work. It's the same
principle because either the dogmas stay the same

391
00:30:15,519 --> 00:30:22,200
or they don't. Yep, and
let's go to the next question. Heard

392
00:30:22,279 --> 00:30:26,839
and five dollars, super Chat asked, is Eastern Orthodox closed to rejoining it?

393
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:30,480
Orientals or Roman couple are splitting in
two? I won't say there's any

394
00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:33,279
chance of being they're being splitting in
two, but I think it's referring to

395
00:30:33,359 --> 00:30:40,839
Moscow's schism. My take is that
it's rather the Orientals and Roman Catholics that

396
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,319
are supposed to be rejoining the Orthodox
Church. We're not the ones. We're

397
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,119
not the ones that change, We're
not the ones that became a different church.

398
00:30:48,279 --> 00:30:51,880
It's rough out of the other ones. And I don't think there's going

399
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:57,519
to be an institution institutionalized union between
the Orthodox and the Roman Catholics, like

400
00:30:57,599 --> 00:31:03,319
on a real scale. What is
really going to happen is that Roman Catholics

401
00:31:03,319 --> 00:31:08,000
Orientals are going to come back to
the true Church. Though there's also twenty

402
00:31:08,039 --> 00:31:14,920
twenty five nice stuff which which by
the bay as someone who has been there.

403
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:17,400
It's a very small city. I
don't I don't think it's going to

404
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,480
house that a lot of people.
It does happen, but if it does

405
00:31:19,559 --> 00:31:25,319
happen, but yeah, I don't
think it's It's just what's coming in twenty

406
00:31:25,359 --> 00:31:30,039
twenty five is a repeat of this, a new false Florentine union. And

407
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,880
David cover this video several years ago. I mean, it's going to cover

408
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,000
this book several years ago. I
recommend this book because you'll notice the parallels

409
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:44,119
between the geopolitical pressures at that time
to have this false union and the exact

410
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,160
mirror geopolitical pressures in our day to
have this false union. So that's what's

411
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:53,039
going to happen in twenty twenty five, unless it's just totally unpopular, right,

412
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,079
I mean, if they keep pushing
for this kind of thing and nobody

413
00:31:56,119 --> 00:32:00,359
buys it, they'll just wait and
you postpone it to try to have this

414
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:12,359
false union. And yeah, Rigovic
sends five pounds, appreciate it, U

415
00:32:13,079 --> 00:32:15,279
five pounds, supertract Rich dream Jay, any chance we can do half the

416
00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:19,519
tour in Italy? So is that
is that an option that can be used,

417
00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:22,720
like having half of the tour for
people who just wants to do that,

418
00:32:22,039 --> 00:32:27,759
you can just message a father Vladimir. I don't know, so he's

419
00:32:27,839 --> 00:32:30,839
the organizer, I don't. I
mean, I'm you're a free human.

420
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,319
I mean, I'm sure you could
do whatever you want. So you know,

421
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,440
you can come and go and show
up. I guess you want to.

422
00:32:36,599 --> 00:32:40,400
But in terms of like staying at
the places that he's organizing, hotel

423
00:32:40,519 --> 00:32:45,319
wise or whatever, you'd have to
ask him. I don't know. Yeah,

424
00:32:44,839 --> 00:32:46,880
yeah, I'm just attending. I
don't. I don't have anything to

425
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,559
do with organizing. But you can
just ask him. Yeah, Max the

426
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:54,759
Confessor attend dollars, supertracts think you. Max Lofton is strange. He treats

427
00:32:54,839 --> 00:33:00,680
Orthodox, it's a couple of discord
servers, some archbishops and think to none

428
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:01,759
of it has to do with parish
life, and he treats us like we

429
00:33:01,799 --> 00:33:07,920
have RC. Ecclesiatra. I definitely
agree what he It's the typical case of

430
00:33:07,119 --> 00:33:13,319
trying to frame your opponent by taking
the worst case examples of that view while

431
00:33:13,359 --> 00:33:19,039
completely ignoring the actual essential aspects of
that view, by forming a completely different

432
00:33:19,759 --> 00:33:23,279
opponent and just battling that he's not
really attacking ortodox because he's not interested in

433
00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:28,799
covering Orthodox. He's really just interested
in growing his own image, trying to

434
00:33:29,799 --> 00:33:32,720
make himself look good, trying to
become this channel, and just trying to

435
00:33:32,839 --> 00:33:38,079
use these indecent tactics to draw low
quality people, because it's only low quality

436
00:33:38,119 --> 00:33:42,680
people or people who have no clue, like generally have no clue that's going

437
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,119
to be attracted to this kind of
low quality appologies. But the thing about

438
00:33:46,119 --> 00:33:50,359
the Internet is that it just takes
a couple of clicks to know what the

439
00:33:50,359 --> 00:33:53,880
truth actually is. Yeah, that's
a great way to put it. I

440
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:58,319
mean, you know, he's been
at this for so long, relying on

441
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:02,240
drama because he knows that he'll get
you know, he'll get more. He'll

442
00:34:02,279 --> 00:34:07,079
get three times more views covering us
from a drama perspective than he does when

443
00:34:07,079 --> 00:34:12,119
he tries to do his own boring, unwatchable theology talks, which again get

444
00:34:12,119 --> 00:34:15,719
like eight hundred views. So he'll
get like seven thousand views if he does

445
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,719
something based on drama. But the
problem is that that he hasn't still figured

446
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:24,519
out that drama streams aren't gonna get
you a like David said, consistent intelligent

447
00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:30,519
watcher base that's gonna get you a
low tier drama basse. And when you

448
00:34:30,559 --> 00:34:35,480
try to base streams around drama.
I saw this when you know, there

449
00:34:35,519 --> 00:34:39,039
was blood sports period when Andy was
was basing his channel around blood sports.

450
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,559
You can get a quiet you can
get a growth spurt from that, But

451
00:34:44,679 --> 00:34:52,079
that audience is not there for serious
theological you know, historical documentation, transformation

452
00:34:52,159 --> 00:34:53,920
of their life. They're there for
the drama, and then once the drama

453
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,840
is not cool, they move on. So it's a it's a it's a

454
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:04,199
come and go audience. And uh, you know, the majority of his

455
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:10,719
rambling and oft repeated replies are simply
that orthodox. He's got problems too.

456
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:15,360
You got problems too, Yo,
Look, they got problems. I mean

457
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:22,400
if our argument was we didn't have
problems and you've got problems. Hut.

458
00:35:22,639 --> 00:35:28,880
Yeah. If our argument was that
we have problems, he has problems and

459
00:35:29,039 --> 00:35:34,079
we don't, that might be a
sufficient response. But the argument has never

460
00:35:34,119 --> 00:35:37,360
been that. It's always been the
nature of the problems. For example,

461
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,360
if your system is built on the
papacy, and the papacy is an institution

462
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:45,400
that is defected and taught heresy,
then that problem is a unique problem which

463
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:52,840
destroys and cancels out that whole system. Right, That's different than saying there's

464
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:57,519
a bunch of corrupt and skittles priests
in Rome, and there's less skittles priests

465
00:35:57,559 --> 00:36:00,599
in Orthodoxy, Therefore Orthodoxy is true. But like you said, the majority

466
00:36:00,639 --> 00:36:06,280
of his stuff is just straw man
like knocking down positions that we don't hold

467
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,280
or that we don't adhere to.
He finds like one random Orthodox person saying

468
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:15,440
something and it's like, look at
this Orthodox du Look I knocked it down.

469
00:36:15,559 --> 00:36:20,679
Bro ha ha, Look all right, that's like it's that low tier.

470
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:30,280
So um, let's see. I
mean what you remember his defensive pache

471
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,880
Mama. It's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember even

472
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,400
responding to that. His his his
argument was literally, no, Pope Francis

473
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:43,719
believed it was the Virgin Mary,
and that's what it should be considered to

474
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,039
be. And if you believe that
it is the paka Mama demon, then

475
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:52,440
you're committing grievous mortal sin. First
of all, who are you to designate

476
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,440
who is committing what kind of a
mortal sin? Whatnot? You're just a

477
00:36:55,440 --> 00:37:00,639
fat idiot. Secondly, is that
this completely goes against psychnographic theology, because

478
00:37:01,599 --> 00:37:07,039
the whole idea of the likeness between
an image and what it is depicting is

479
00:37:07,039 --> 00:37:10,199
that it depicts the thing that it
is supposed to be depicting. So if

480
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:14,559
you have a water I use this
exactly example, if you have a water

481
00:37:14,599 --> 00:37:17,519
bottle and you say this water bottle
is actually an image of this pencil,

482
00:37:19,079 --> 00:37:22,639
then you're an idiot because they have
nothing. They don't have anything in common,

483
00:37:22,679 --> 00:37:28,199
and in that, in that they're
both objects. So yeah, I

484
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:32,239
mean, yeah, I mean this
looks to me Mama is a woman marries

485
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:37,760
a woman. Therefore the same,
Yeah, it has nothing to do.

486
00:37:37,079 --> 00:37:42,000
They basically have nothing to do and
for most part between each other. It's

487
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,719
the same thing that the Paca Mama
and the Virgin Mary paka Mama is a

488
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:50,239
demon conjured up by the imagination of
a bunch of you know people in in

489
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,639
America. The Virgin Mary is an
actual, historical a woman who gave birth

490
00:37:53,679 --> 00:37:57,719
to God. That's a huge difference, and they look very different, They're

491
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,599
depicted in very different ways, they
have different characteristics. And again it's what

492
00:38:00,679 --> 00:38:02,760
Saint Theodore the Student says, as
you pointed out, what is the you

493
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:07,400
know, the the image depicts the
person, right, and so it has

494
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,440
to have personal likeness. The pacamama
has no personal likeness with the Virgin Mary.

495
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:15,599
They're completely his whole unlated word concept
fallacy over imagery. There is the

496
00:38:15,639 --> 00:38:21,840
whole basis of Roman Catholic syncretism.
Yeah, and they they you know,

497
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,480
they defend in culteration, which is
just an idiotic practice for what they called

498
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:30,559
the basis. Exactly, they make
images of idols and they say it's Christ.

499
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:34,280
That's that's like saying that's like making
an image of Zeus and saying it's

500
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:39,599
it's it's the Father, which ironically
there's actually in the semi Techomendical council Um,

501
00:38:39,639 --> 00:38:45,960
there was an instance that they cited
a life of a saint where in

502
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,960
that instance someone was making an image
of Christ, but it was like the

503
00:38:50,079 --> 00:38:54,000
image of Zeus, and the icon
writer his hand basically stopped. He couldn't

504
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,320
write it properly because it was and
I it was it was an image of

505
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,920
Zeus. It wasn't an image of
Christ, right, and so he had

506
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,599
to edit the image. And I
talk about this in my video and icon

507
00:39:02,679 --> 00:39:07,880
Innovation. I mean, this is
right. The natural theology premise is premised

508
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:15,320
on the idea of the theistic fallacy
that because there's commonalities, the reference is

509
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,079
the same. But you just show
how absurd that is. Like the fact

510
00:39:19,119 --> 00:39:22,599
that Pacha Mama is female and the
fact that Mary is female. It does

511
00:39:22,639 --> 00:39:27,440
not equate to the same reference because
they share characteristics. This is just so

512
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:32,760
stupid. Oh, pokemona pregnant.
So yeah, that it's just all of

513
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:37,800
these like like similarities. I just
I mean, just think about natural theology,

514
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:42,280
right, there's a common monotheism because
they all believe in one God.

515
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,280
Okay, so if I believe that
the one God is satan Am I part

516
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:50,519
of the monotheistic tradition, why not
exactly? Well, no, you see,

517
00:39:50,559 --> 00:39:52,920
there's got to be these other Okay, but see now it because it

518
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:57,880
gets to be arbitrary as to what
it has to have these specific properties,

519
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,880
these essential properties, but not these
But well, if you're a Christian,

520
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:05,800
one of the essential aspects of God
is that he's a trinity. So and

521
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:10,119
that that already kind of does not
work with the so called monetistic system.

522
00:40:10,159 --> 00:40:13,599
But you know, at the end
of the day, you know, let

523
00:40:13,679 --> 00:40:16,559
Roman Catholics say that we worship the
same God at Muslims too. I guess

524
00:40:16,639 --> 00:40:21,440
that's because now they're defending that.
I mean, it's quite right, because

525
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,800
the Vatican, that's no stra autata
is Vatican to theology. Because when I've

526
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:29,559
like when I looked into like religious
discourse for the first time and I had

527
00:40:29,599 --> 00:40:32,119
a traditionalist disposition all this this kind
of stuff. I looked into this kind

528
00:40:32,159 --> 00:40:35,679
of stuff and I looked at Roman
Catholics and they will talk about, you

529
00:40:35,679 --> 00:40:37,400
know, if you don't believe the
Roman Catholic dogma, you're not part of

530
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:42,440
true faith. And it sounds really
you know, it appealed to me a

531
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,159
lot, like I really started respect
Roman Cavolson because of this attitude. And

532
00:40:45,199 --> 00:40:47,639
then I will just see stuff like
oh, by the way, we worship

533
00:40:47,679 --> 00:40:50,400
the same God as Muslims, by
the way, and if you don't believe

534
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,400
that, you're heretics, like what
that that doesn't make it. That's that

535
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,119
doesn't make any sense. And any
argument they make they use, it's just

536
00:40:55,199 --> 00:41:00,039
kind of like these flimsy arguments like
oh, well, Paul talks about the

537
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:04,960
un known God and that means the
Pagans worship actually worship the Father, so

538
00:41:06,039 --> 00:41:08,599
you which is like says you don't
know him, that's why it's called the

539
00:41:08,639 --> 00:41:13,920
unknown God. If he was teaching
natural theology, he would say the known

540
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:20,639
God, yeah, exactly, and
these it They just use these flimsy arguments.

541
00:41:20,679 --> 00:41:24,760
That doesn't really well. I'll think
about once again, how many people

542
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:29,880
get tripped up on the word concept
fallacy. This is just a version of

543
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:35,840
word concept fallacy as applied to iconography
and imagery. I mean icons imagery.

544
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:40,159
All of this reality for us is
iconographic, right, Everything is iconographic for

545
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:49,119
us, the whole world. And
that's why making the mistake in theology theological

546
00:41:49,199 --> 00:41:53,119
discourse from words and sentences of word
concept fallacy is the exact same mistake that

547
00:41:53,159 --> 00:41:58,880
the Roman Catholic is making with religious
imagery in a word concept fallacy, same

548
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:05,840
move, same mistake by confusing commonalities
with identical reference, the fact that those

549
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,800
commonalities does not mean that the reference
are the same. Let me give you

550
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,079
another example. If I say,
this is the example I use, I

551
00:42:12,079 --> 00:42:15,840
think in I can't remember it was
one of the livestream anyway, But I

552
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:23,480
say, I'm going I have treasure
buried at the Promised Land in the underground

553
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:28,199
of the Promised Land, and you
fly over to the Holy Land, and

554
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,800
you find where you think I'm talking
about, and you dig up and you

555
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:37,519
find out, oh, there's nothing
there. Now, I gave you a

556
00:42:37,599 --> 00:42:40,519
place. I gave you a location, a precise name. I gave you

557
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:45,519
treasure, you know, a specific
reference, all of this, and you

558
00:42:45,519 --> 00:42:49,039
find out, oh, no,
I wasn't talking about the Holy Land.

559
00:42:49,079 --> 00:42:52,079
I'm talking about the evangelical bookstore down
the road for me that's called Promised Land.

560
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:59,320
And I buried twenty four gold bars
in the basement there. So think

561
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,159
about all the cominaloities that were there, right, the name, the reference,

562
00:43:02,679 --> 00:43:07,280
the gold is there. I mean, you had all these specifics right

563
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,920
that you thought was a place,
and it was a totally different place.

564
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:19,559
So does that not illustrate the fact
that just because there's common properties doesn't mean

565
00:43:19,679 --> 00:43:22,000
the reference is the same. It's
just like so obvious. I can't believe

566
00:43:22,039 --> 00:43:27,280
anybody would think that. And it's
a baden switch, right. It's like,

567
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,760
oh, Muslim, you and I
we worship the same god because we

568
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,760
both call upon one God. And
then all I do is I say,

569
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:39,679
well, what about a theistic Satanist
who calls upon Satan as the one God?

570
00:43:43,159 --> 00:43:49,480
So clearly one God doesn't refer to
the same God just because it's quote

571
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:53,519
one God. This is really simple. Yeah, And even as you said,

572
00:43:53,559 --> 00:43:58,559
even the common properties like oh,
omnipotent, omniscients, et cetera,

573
00:43:58,639 --> 00:44:02,719
et cetera, they don't do it. Yea, you have at the same

574
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:08,519
idea. That's because in our theology
you can't have you can't scale down the

575
00:44:08,559 --> 00:44:14,440
divine attributes and have the same reference. For example, when Basil's arguing with

576
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,239
Eunomius, and Eunomias says, I
believe in Father's Son and Holy Spirit.

577
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:22,679
You believe in Father Son and Holy
Spirit. Does debate if we just took

578
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:27,760
that phrase, would that mean that
Basil and Unomius have the same God.

579
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,000
Of course not, because what Unomius
means by father son is Spirit is totally

580
00:44:31,039 --> 00:44:35,119
different from what Basil's saying. So
the fact that it's the same words,

581
00:44:35,159 --> 00:44:37,239
and even though there's some overlap,
Unomius could say I believe in the three

582
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:45,039
omnis. Did Basil believe in the
Unitarian concept that Eunomius has. Of course

583
00:44:45,079 --> 00:44:49,599
not, And everybody can recognize this, Okay, Well, then the same

584
00:44:49,639 --> 00:44:54,440
applies to Mauslims and Jews when they
have a Unomian concept of the one God.

585
00:44:54,960 --> 00:45:00,280
And that we don't have that deity. And I think, especially at

586
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:05,760
the point about same Basis against Unomus, one of the things he argues is

587
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,079
that, well, we have knowledge
of God because of the things that come

588
00:45:08,119 --> 00:45:12,920
down to us, and that allows
us to have direct knowledge and perception in

589
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:17,480
some senses of God, whereas you
have this understanding both in Unomus's view and

590
00:45:17,519 --> 00:45:22,599
the other unitary views, where like
it's like it's just this merely conceptual idea,

591
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:27,960
just something you conjure into your mind, and you just have some similarities

592
00:45:28,599 --> 00:45:31,119
between these conceptual ideas that you have
in other people, and you say,

593
00:45:31,159 --> 00:45:36,719
well, we actually thinking the same
exactly because it has some attributes are in

594
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,679
common between these conceptual ideas, where
the same basiness thing, No, we

595
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:45,079
have experience with God as Orthodox Christians
as well. There's also that caveat of

596
00:45:45,119 --> 00:45:49,719
this kind of practical aspect of same
basis theology as well. It doesn't really

597
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:55,679
exist in these other religions either.
Next question, right, I mean there's

598
00:45:55,679 --> 00:46:01,599
a fine line between saying, yeah, if you look at pagan religions,

599
00:46:01,639 --> 00:46:09,119
there are commonalities with ideas in you
know, Christianity, but that doesn't equate.

600
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:13,679
I mean, this is the same
argument that like perennialists make or that

601
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,440
freemasons make that, oh, well
there's commonality, so it's all the same

602
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:24,679
religion. It's it's it sounds really
strange to me that like people people defend

603
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:30,559
this. But anyways, next question
is love and NBA ten ten euros super

604
00:46:30,639 --> 00:46:34,880
chat. Appreciate it. Thanks for
the great work you do. I know

605
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,800
that it is not part of your
typical repertoire, but think about doing a

606
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,840
stream on the importance of reading the
lives of saints. They are not emphasized

607
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:44,800
enough. Well, from my perspective, will basically answer the reason why it's

608
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:45,920
not emphasized enough here is because well, first of all, there are other

609
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:51,719
channels to emphasize it much better base
and these are people that have alternity,

610
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:55,280
like priests, monks, clergy,
they are good at that. There's also

611
00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:00,000
channels, like there's different channels that
talk about lives of saints. I'm not

612
00:47:00,039 --> 00:47:06,159
opposed to reading or talking about them, it's just that it's something that I

613
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:12,119
myself, I considered myself as student
in that and I unless it is for

614
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,559
my own personal benefit, like just
like reading it and then teaching it just

615
00:47:15,599 --> 00:47:19,920
to like understand it. Better.
I don't really plan on talking and it's

616
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,320
it's it's again, it's something that
I just think it will be strange for

617
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:29,280
me to kind of do videos about
that content the same view, because I've

618
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:35,280
always noted and explained my limitations and
the sphere of what I cover, And

619
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:37,599
like David said, you know,
the whole point of this is not for

620
00:47:37,639 --> 00:47:42,679
you to intellectually sit around and think
about these things, but going into the

621
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,679
church. And when you go into
the church, you will have ample opportunity

622
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:52,000
to invest your time and your efforts
and your attention into those things because your

623
00:47:52,039 --> 00:47:55,960
priests and your spiritual father will be
guiding you in those things. So my

624
00:47:57,079 --> 00:48:01,880
channel is never going to be a
a guru spiritual guide channel because that's not

625
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:06,000
what I do. And everybody knows
I've always said that I don't do that,

626
00:48:06,559 --> 00:48:09,880
and so I stick to the lanes
in which I can speak to you

627
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:15,760
know, ideas with proficiency, and
it's not my job to be your moral

628
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:22,960
guide or your guru or and it
just to me. It really there's a

629
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:27,199
fine line there. I don't know
how exactly to balance this, but over

630
00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:30,679
the last several years, I've seen
a lot of people who you know,

631
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:36,119
maybe they're good intentions, but they
turned their channel or their Twitter or their

632
00:48:36,159 --> 00:48:40,280
outlet into this manifestation of how much
they pray and pray with me and look

633
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:44,840
at all this piety and look at
all and these people. I mean I'm

634
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:50,559
not saying everybody, but sometimes people
go nuts and it just irks me.

635
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,800
Like even when people do live streams
and they're like really preachy, that's not

636
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,320
me. So you know, you
will get enough of that when you come

637
00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,159
into the church and when you have
a spiritual father who will be dealing with

638
00:49:02,199 --> 00:49:07,199
you on a weekly basis as you
go to communion and as you confess your

639
00:49:07,199 --> 00:49:09,079
sins, and he's going to tell
you what saints to read that are appropriate

640
00:49:09,119 --> 00:49:14,880
to you. So you need to
be looking for these types of things from

641
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:20,599
your spiritual father, not from internet
people. Yeah. I mean, if

642
00:49:20,639 --> 00:49:22,880
anything, I think it will be
suspicious if you talked about spiritual issues all

643
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:27,639
the time. I think that will
be genuinely suspicious in some sense because it's

644
00:49:27,679 --> 00:49:30,320
not it's not a it will be
like it will be like a YouTube person

645
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:34,599
talking about giving financial advice. I
mean, it's just not there. It's

646
00:49:34,639 --> 00:49:37,280
just not their lance. So if
I'm going to say something like spiritual it's

647
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,639
always going to be perfect, but
I say it or not. But not

648
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:45,199
spiritual advice, because there's someone that
has that authority that can do. All

649
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:49,119
I can do is point you to
direction and the lives of saints. What's

650
00:49:49,159 --> 00:49:51,239
important is that you know, if
we do live in a time where there's

651
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,320
a lot there's not a lot of
people who can give spiritual guidance. It's

652
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,320
built still people that you know,
spiritual fathers and stuff. There's still priests

653
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,800
and all of that. But the
lives of are the saint help us direct

654
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:06,760
us to the royal path in that
sense if we're missing that. But as

655
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:07,599
I said, it's like what am
I gonna do? Am I going to

656
00:50:07,679 --> 00:50:10,719
give an analysis of the life of
Saint Anthony? I mean I can't really,

657
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,239
like I will be uncomfortable doing that. Whereas but dogmatic stuff, that

658
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:20,920
stuff interests me. I think I
have the mind to comprehend it and tell

659
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,599
it to people and to kind of
convince them using it. And that's kind

660
00:50:23,599 --> 00:50:28,159
of like how I use what I
am decent that I think it's just also

661
00:50:28,159 --> 00:50:32,239
an optimization thing. And unlike other
people, because some people they like,

662
00:50:32,599 --> 00:50:37,360
you know, the spiritual mystical aspect
of Orthodoxy, and so because they like

663
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,519
it, they have to be in
opposition to the dogmatic aspect to it,

664
00:50:40,559 --> 00:50:43,599
which and they say, oh,
you know, that doesn't matter, which

665
00:50:43,639 --> 00:50:46,480
actually doesn't matter. You kind of
have to know a little bit about it.

666
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:50,440
At the very least, you don't
have to, you know, hate

667
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,280
what I or Jay do or other
people do. You can just say that's

668
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:58,440
not my thing. My thing is
this. I respect that. Likewise,

669
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,679
it's kind of like some people are
in tune with the dogmatic stuff and they

670
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:06,559
still have to do look into this
mystical stuff. I think we both have

671
00:51:06,639 --> 00:51:09,800
to deportos into the both aspects,
right, the mystical and the scholastic aspect

672
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:15,800
of the Orthodox fate. But some
of us can have preference in an affinity

673
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,559
towards one aspect of it more than
the other. That's not bad. That's

674
00:51:19,599 --> 00:51:22,559
just you know, personality, right, It's a personality thing. That's how

675
00:51:22,599 --> 00:51:25,440
I see it. So I think
some people take it too far and try

676
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:30,239
to denigrate the other time. Most
of the time I see people denigrating those

677
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:34,960
who focus on the dogmatic aspect of
the more than the other one, because

678
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:39,559
that seems to be more acceptable to
do nowadays. So I think that's completely

679
00:51:39,599 --> 00:51:44,159
wrong and I will recommend people not
to have that kind of an approach.

680
00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:51,800
Next super Chat, William Kane asks
do you believe there are neutral spirit beings

681
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:58,039
like faithful gnomes, trolls, goblins
or the old demonic beings. I don't.

682
00:51:58,119 --> 00:52:00,480
I can't answer this question. I
can't ask I don't. I mean,

683
00:52:00,599 --> 00:52:06,199
all those things sound pretty demonic to
me, so yeah, but just

684
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:12,159
kind of like like neutral spiritual beings
to me. It's uh. Most I

685
00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:17,840
know is Saint John Damascus talks about
ghosts, but he says ghosts aren't real.

686
00:52:19,559 --> 00:52:23,880
So he says ghosts aren't made up. But then in the same work

687
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:29,920
he says dragons are real by the
way, which is um, there's there's

688
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:31,639
that's like a short PDF of it
going around. Other than that, I

689
00:52:31,639 --> 00:52:37,960
don't really, I don't think I
can really answer that question, William.

690
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,639
Um. I mean I would say
the tendency of you know, when you

691
00:52:39,679 --> 00:52:45,039
read people who talk about these kinds
like people who take d MT trips or

692
00:52:45,159 --> 00:52:49,400
you know, people who do LSD
and they encounter these kinds of entities that

693
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:53,400
are elves or whatever. I mean, they typically are saying pretty demonic stuff.

694
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:59,119
So that's a pretty good sign.
M Yeah, I noticed that too.

695
00:52:59,599 --> 00:53:01,920
Oh you're gonna you're gonna like this
one. Jay, this is a

696
00:53:02,039 --> 00:53:08,119
really a person who is very mentally
healthy and someone who can totally be very

697
00:53:08,159 --> 00:53:15,840
respected. Gave us a super chat. I can't believe I'm sending money to

698
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:21,239
heretics, no refunds. But how
can I debate you Nestorian heretics. I'm

699
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,559
Coptic and want you to join.
Well, we're already in the Orthodox Church.

700
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,400
We will want you to join the
Orthodox Church. But I think I

701
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,239
have a couple of tips. First
of all, three, people with respect,

702
00:53:31,519 --> 00:53:36,360
especially people you don't know, because
if you just go guns blazing,

703
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,599
we're not going to really tell you
seriously. As I said, take you

704
00:53:38,639 --> 00:53:44,719
for the money, no refunds.
Number three, we do have free time

705
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:49,000
on discord sometimes where we have open
Q and A and we talk with people.

706
00:53:49,039 --> 00:53:51,480
And if you want to debate at
that moment you want to find that

707
00:53:51,599 --> 00:53:55,159
opportunity, you can use that opportunity. But you're not I seek after a

708
00:53:55,159 --> 00:54:00,079
debate. Two times I've regretted the
one time that I did it and I

709
00:54:00,199 --> 00:54:05,880
realized that it's not I shouldn't be
seeking to debate some random person because it's

710
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,719
not just not going to work out. I have obligations, responsibilities in my

711
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,880
life. I don't have complete free
time where I can debate just people who

712
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,880
ask me to do. You know, and the fact is you're just some

713
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:22,719
unknown dude who speaks in a very
mentally unhealthy manner. Bib will we take

714
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,679
this seriously? But I really,
I really do appreciate the money that you

715
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:30,039
that you're sent that that definitely really
really you know, I'm going to enjoy

716
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:36,280
spending that for sure. You have
anything to say, I think over the

717
00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,800
last four or five years, we've
given ample opportunity with hundreds of hours of

718
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:45,199
people to come to freely challenge and
debate. We've done this in discord,

719
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:49,000
We've done it on Twitter, I've
done it on live streams. So the

720
00:54:49,119 --> 00:54:52,400
idea that you know, you're you
haven't the people haven't had the opportunity to

721
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,719
do this is just simply not true. Maybe you're new to what we talk

722
00:54:55,800 --> 00:55:00,199
about, and if that's the case, I mean you can request us to

723
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,599
come in the discord or to set
up a discussion with me or David and

724
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:07,000
maybe down the road we can do
that. Yeah, absolutely. I mean,

725
00:55:07,159 --> 00:55:12,480
we have discord sessions where we talk
with people and answer their questions or

726
00:55:12,679 --> 00:55:15,239
debate if anyone shows up, and
if they don't show up, that's their

727
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:17,119
loss. I mean, as I
said, we both are busy people who

728
00:55:17,119 --> 00:55:22,519
don't have infinite free time. So
but it seems like you do have a

729
00:55:22,599 --> 00:55:25,119
lot of free time. But I
mean, hopefully you find something to maybe

730
00:55:25,119 --> 00:55:29,320
you can use that free time to
listen to my playlist and actually learn about

731
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,760
or time. I mean, David, you've done two or three in the

732
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:37,840
past debates with you know, people
of that persuasion. Yeah, and and

733
00:55:37,519 --> 00:55:42,800
those debates for I didn't have to
do those debates. I seek those debates

734
00:55:43,599 --> 00:55:46,800
knowing that it didn't profit me,
and I went through those because it was

735
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:51,280
risky or et cetera, et cetera, whereas these are unknown people. And

736
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:53,360
at the end of the day,
it worked. But it's like, especially

737
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:58,159
the second debate was just not even
a proper debate. It was disrespectful to

738
00:55:58,199 --> 00:56:02,519
the whole idea of a debate.
So I just learned my lesson that I

739
00:56:02,559 --> 00:56:07,199
had to be more, I had
to have higher standards or otherwise it's just

740
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:10,800
going to be just low bi Q
snooze fists. But that debate worked at

741
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:15,719
the end of the debate as well. So next question is Max of wait

742
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:19,920
he already have you already looked at
this? Have you heard of this?

743
00:56:20,079 --> 00:56:23,880
Like appen of Jesus, argued quetzal
Quatl was St. Thomas the Apostle,

744
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:28,760
I've ever heard of this before?
Or I mean, I don't know about

745
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:35,480
that specific example, but I mean
I was looking into jesuit um the culturation

746
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:39,920
when we did the Apocalypto stream because
in the movie Apocalypto, Uh, they

747
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:49,360
make reference to various Mayan in in
you know, Mexican deities that our goddesses,

748
00:56:50,159 --> 00:56:57,480
and they built the Chapel to the
Virgin where Juan Diego, you know,

749
00:56:57,519 --> 00:57:04,960
supposedly had the miraculous Mary apparition or
whatever our lady Guadalupez. What I'm

750
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,639
trying to think of, um and
uh, you know, the irony,

751
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:12,480
of course is that it's really just
an appropriation of the goddess worship that's referenced

752
00:57:12,599 --> 00:57:16,199
in the movie Apocalypto at that site. And when you listen to what the

753
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:22,320
goddess called for, the irony is
that she's obviously demonic, right, this

754
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:29,760
entity is demonic because of the she
got mad supposedly when they tore down her

755
00:57:30,239 --> 00:57:31,800
goddess temple and they were going to
build a church. Well, now,

756
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:36,239
wait a minute. If she gets
mad that the church is being built to

757
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:40,800
the Virgin, then you can't say
that the goddess indigenous goddess worship was preparing

758
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:46,039
for the Virgin like they they're two
different things. So um, I'm not

759
00:57:46,119 --> 00:57:51,079
surprised that Jesuits to do that,
because the whole idea again of inculturation is

760
00:57:51,119 --> 00:57:53,840
to play a kind of abate and
switch, right. I mean, I

761
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:59,440
think there is a valid Orthodox approach
to inculturation, which Innocent of Alaska did

762
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:06,639
with the but it doesn't trade on
these bait and switch ideas that Pacha Mama

763
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:14,840
is marry the other a super chat. I think you couldn't like this one,

764
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:16,840
Frankie D five dollars super chat.
J. Do you ever do Christopher

765
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:22,119
Vulcan impressions? Yeah, but it's
not very good. He's for some reason,

766
00:58:22,159 --> 00:58:23,119
he's really hard for me to do. But if you go and watch

767
00:58:23,159 --> 00:58:28,000
the video that I did maybe five
years ago, I have celebrity impressions,

768
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,119
and I think there's two of them, and Christopher Walking is in both of

769
00:58:30,159 --> 00:58:32,920
those. I'll spare you right now
because I haven't worked on it in a

770
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:37,280
while. I mean, come on, man, he you know he made

771
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:39,960
a super chat. You gotta try, right, you gotta try it a

772
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:45,679
little bit at least. I don't
know Christopher Vulcan, but i'd like your

773
00:58:45,679 --> 00:58:51,000
impressions. So just to go watch
the video because it's better in the video

774
00:58:51,039 --> 00:58:53,239
than I would be able to do
it right now? All right, all

775
00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:59,000
right, well that's what what video
we're talking about again. I can maybe

776
00:58:59,079 --> 00:59:05,400
link that and him Jay Dyer Celebrity
Impressions, It'll come up. And I

777
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:10,000
think I'm pretty sure if Walking is
in there, Um, is it the

778
00:59:10,079 --> 00:59:15,320
fifteen vacky celebrity impersonations in nine minutes
one? Or is it the best?

779
00:59:15,639 --> 00:59:20,480
It's the one that has nine nine
thousand views from three years ago? All

780
00:59:20,559 --> 00:59:23,440
right? Yeah, yeah that one
right, I'll I'll post it at light

781
00:59:23,519 --> 00:59:27,079
Chat. So yeah, I think
Chris walkins in there, Frank, you

782
00:59:27,199 --> 00:59:30,119
can see it. And I think
a lot of my impressions are better than

783
00:59:30,159 --> 00:59:32,480
they were back then, Like I've
a lot of these people. I've gotten

784
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:37,719
better since then. Yeah, Chrisia
Walking is in there. M all right?

785
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:40,039
All right? Cool by the way, we have a live event.

799
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:44,199
all right, well, Matt,
I this this stream ended up just

800
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,519
being like a massive orthodox CQ and
a stream. But that's that's fine.

801
01:00:47,559 --> 01:00:52,400
I mean that's always that's always cool. Um. I think it's definitely beneficial

01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,199
for a lot of the people as
well. UM, definitely appreciate the support.

803

01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:23,239
So uh, oh my gosh,
I need to spend money on consumer

01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:28,760
goods please, I need to spend
money. Oh yeah, you know what

809
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,199
I'm gonna use that. I'm gonna
use Adams money to buy funk pops.

810
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:44,079
There you go your fun No exactly, yeah, um uncle cop func gonna

811
01:01:44,079 --> 01:01:52,079
be pretty difficult because I don't think
Funco cops com Funco cops. All Right,

812
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:57,039
I realized just now, funk you
got? You got Funco cop Bro,

813
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:02,119
You're you're a ne story. How
can I funk funko Storian? You're

814
01:02:02,119 --> 01:02:07,280
a funk Storian piece of crap?
You got Funco copped? Anyways, I

815
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,599
don't think you have Funko pops here
in Turke I've never seen one. But

816
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:15,840
um, I remember that you're consider
yourself lucky that that contagion doesn't spread.

817
01:02:16,679 --> 01:02:22,519
I remember going to um, like
a like a nerds store, I like

818
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:25,000
not even gonna call it like a
comic store, Like it's a Nerds store

819
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:30,760
in England, and um, they
were like massive shells, like complete like

820
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:32,880
massive shells dedicated to Funko pops.
And it's like to me, it's like

821
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:38,360
insane, Like I mean, it's
like just I don't know why people like

822
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:42,719
it. It's I don't I'm not
gonna be that's sad. I mean it's

823
01:02:42,719 --> 01:02:45,559
just I don't know, you know, man in the in this country or

824
01:02:45,239 --> 01:02:47,920
you know, we were gonna talk
about men's stuff, but we ended up

825
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:52,119
in theology. That's fine with me. But um, yeah, I mean

826
01:02:52,119 --> 01:02:54,000
that's just a different time. It's
just a yeah, a sign of the

827
01:02:54,159 --> 01:02:58,880
decay and the cancer of you know, the West, that it's turning into

828
01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:04,800
this ridiculous thing. Yeah. I
mean back then, there used to be

829
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,360
collector items, like people will collect
specific things and that was kind of like

830
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:13,440
a cool hobby. But now it's
just like buying something from their like about

831
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:17,599
their favorite superheroes, the Cape shit
nonsense, which they're like producing a lot

832
01:03:17,599 --> 01:03:21,800
of that stuff. And and have
you noticed like there's a lot of movies

833
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,360
coming out and games coming out that's
just the repeat of the previous popular ones,

834
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:30,320
like yeah they're supermakes now, yeah
it's weird. Yeah. I think

835
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:34,599
the thing with Funco Pops is the
thing that really makes me mad is that,

836
01:03:35,239 --> 01:03:37,639
you know, we used to have
a lot of bookstores in cities that

837
01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:45,360
you muted jusif accidentally every time I
would go to a new city. Uh,

838
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:49,880
you know, I like to go
to bookstores, and and nowadays bookstores

839
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:54,800
are basically just like Funco pops and
toys and knick knacks and trinkets. And

840
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:59,679
I mean, to me, it's
just like a sign of I don't know,

841
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:02,639
some sort of weird apocalypse or something. I'm not literally saying it's into

842
01:04:02,679 --> 01:04:06,239
the world, but I mean it's
just sad that we can't have, you

843
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:11,400
know, bookstores and people interested in
you know, education, real information.

844
01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:15,519
Everything's replaced with just just relate.
By the way, the reason that I

845
01:04:15,559 --> 01:04:17,800
have some people are wondering is that
in the live events that we do,

846
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:24,519
I actually have a debate with the
funk a Pop. So the Funko Pop

847
01:04:24,519 --> 01:04:28,920
and I have a debate and then
um, basically, the funk O pop

848
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:32,639
gets destroyed. So put it that
way. Yeah, yeah, I mean

849
01:04:32,679 --> 01:04:38,440
it's crushed, is what I'm saying. All right, well we got it.

850
01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:43,079
We got a super shock while we
were talking about the Funco Cops bunch

851
01:04:43,119 --> 01:04:45,559
of I spend five dollars. How
do you defeat the argument that, since

852
01:04:45,559 --> 01:04:48,000
the Bible is written by man,
any interpretation of it is all just a

853
01:04:48,039 --> 01:04:56,480
matter of opinion, Well, just
because something. And first of all,

854
01:04:56,639 --> 01:05:00,360
the fact that something is written by
a man, I mean all books are

855
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:04,960
written by men, and all books
are then interpreted, So the fact that

856
01:05:05,199 --> 01:05:11,199
it's interpreted has nothing to do with
it being opinion. So this is confusing

857
01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:15,679
two different things. The fact that
you interpret something does not make that merely

858
01:05:15,719 --> 01:05:20,639
your opinion. But secondly, the
Bible is not any random, mere book.

859
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:25,079
It's a book of divine revelation.
And one of the ways that we

860
01:05:25,159 --> 01:05:30,039
know that is by the not just
a transport argument, but by the many,

861
01:05:30,119 --> 01:05:34,679
many, many prophetic future prediction statements
that it has. So the messianic

862
01:05:34,719 --> 01:05:40,880
prophecies, of which there are many, not just a handful, those are

863
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:46,280
things that attest to the inspiration of
the text, and so that those are

864
01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:53,920
objective things that have nothing to do
with one's personal opinions. Another thing I

865
01:05:54,199 --> 01:05:57,880
will kind of like the another vase
to kind of get get at it is

866
01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:00,159
that we have a normality will tortu
which the church to pull it in ground

867
01:06:00,159 --> 01:06:05,880
of truth that establishes the correct way
to understand the doctrine exposited by scripture.

868
01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:13,320
So that mechanism is in the Orthodox
shure. That mechanism is fundamental in understanding

869
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:17,880
what is the true doctione. Because
Orthodoxy is not a religion there there is.

870
01:06:18,079 --> 01:06:20,199
There's the book, and then you
read the book, and then you

871
01:06:20,239 --> 01:06:24,400
get the doctrine. It's there's a
doctrine, there's a dogma first, and

872
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:29,639
the book is the exposition of that. So there's a completely different frame of

873
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:34,320
understanding. There's a collective, communal
understanding that goes back, you know,

874
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:39,880
two thousand years of how to understand
the text, which is another guard against

875
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:43,800
it just being like a Protestant concept
of you know, it's my interpretation versus

876
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:47,880
your interpretation. Yeah, um,
this is a funny comment that I that

877
01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:53,280
I that I that I saw Frankie
D five dollars super chat J. What

878
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:59,360
movie is your famous quote? Pure
chaos? From I don't know. That's

879
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:00,639
the term that you can hear to
a lot of them. I think you're

880
01:07:00,679 --> 01:07:04,039
talking about when I'm doing an impression
of Jordan Peterson, and i'd say pure

881
01:07:04,119 --> 01:07:10,559
chaos. So it's Jordan Peterson,
it's not movie Oh yeah, might be

882
01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:15,559
that. Um, maybe it's maybe
he's referring to some other impersonation that's like

883
01:07:15,679 --> 01:07:20,400
you're impersonal movie character. I don't
know Peterson. Yeah, it's got to

884
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:24,199
be. That's the only time I
remember ever saying something like that. But

885
01:07:24,719 --> 01:07:28,639
what was the other question? The
the well, the other question, Well,

886
01:07:28,639 --> 01:07:30,679
it wasn't a question, wasn't a
super check musition. It was just

887
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:36,079
Mark pointing out that there's a recent
prop video about why people are becoming Orthodoxynus

888
01:07:36,119 --> 01:07:43,199
because a lot of prop pastors are
j G h E. Why. So

889
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,880
I guess you got to ask yourself, why why does that happen? How

890
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:51,119
does that? How does that even
happen in the first place? Um,

891
01:07:51,159 --> 01:07:57,079
that's something that I think people can
ask. But we're we're nearly we're nearly

892
01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:00,360
getting to three hours. I did
not expect the streams to be to be

893
01:08:00,519 --> 01:08:02,800
this long, but I think definitely, like the whole men's stuff, and

894
01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:05,559
like some other cultural stuff. I
think that definitely another stream. I mean,

895
01:08:05,599 --> 01:08:12,159
I enjoy talking to you about pretty
much anything, and hopefully you have

896
01:08:12,199 --> 01:08:15,800
the same view about meat. But
I really appreciate you coming here. Anything

897
01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:19,479
you want to kind of say before
be close to stream, anything you want

898
01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:24,279
to kind of shout out or let
people know, I would just say that,

899
01:08:24,319 --> 01:08:28,720
you know, remember that all the
work that we've done is not to

900
01:08:29,279 --> 01:08:34,520
have a mere intellectual discourse going on. It's to tell people that, you

901
01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:38,520
know, you actually have to get
into the church and you find healing in

902
01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:43,319
the actual local church. So hopefully
you can find a solid one around you,

903
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,479
not one that's liberalized. So I
would just say, you know,

904
01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:53,560
look for ro corpor look for Serbian, look for Romanian, look for Antiochian

905
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,840
parishes around you, and uh,
you know, try to check out and

906
01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:00,840
see if they're solid. Because that's
all in the final analysis, not about

907
01:09:01,119 --> 01:09:06,000
internet stuff. It's about to actually
going to church. Yeah exactly. I

908
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:12,560
mean the whole point of doing these
streams and helping people it's to give them

909
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:15,359
reasons to become Ortodox, enjoy Orthodox
church. It's that's the whole point of

910
01:09:15,359 --> 01:09:17,640
fit. I mean, if that
if it doesn't result in that, then

911
01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:25,560
it doesn't what we've done hasn't really
concluded in something that we want to conclude.

912
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:28,560
And so one of the things that
I've done, especially with you and

913
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:31,199
even like these days with me,
which I kind of I guess I didn't

914
01:09:31,239 --> 01:09:35,840
really expect. But I see a
lot of people well that like point that

915
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:40,239
talk about how the videos you do, the videos I do, the videos

916
01:09:40,319 --> 01:09:42,760
redo together, and all of this
kind of stuff like help us. Like

917
01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:46,159
recently I saw on Twitter someone who
was Protestant when I saw him for the

918
01:09:46,159 --> 01:09:50,399
first time and then he's not Worthodox, basically saying that the stream we did,

919
01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:54,600
the debate review stream, we remember
that fully equa one which I think

920
01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:57,800
was like our debate review I think
was a masterpiece on that topic. I

921
01:09:57,880 --> 01:10:02,159
think definitely anyone who's interested like advanced
aspects of the relationship between the Holy Spirit

922
01:10:02,199 --> 01:10:05,319
and the relation between the Holy Spirit
and the Sun and how they relate to

923
01:10:05,319 --> 01:10:09,479
the Father that that debate review stream
we did, I think it's like the

924
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:13,199
number one for sure, because it
touches on so many important things related to

925
01:10:13,239 --> 01:10:15,079
the debate. He said, for
example, like oh yeah, that that

926
01:10:15,239 --> 01:10:19,640
video like really helped me understand the
Orthodox position, like the stuff that that's

927
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:25,680
what we're trying to accomplish, is
that so help people give reasons, give

928
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,720
them reasons to become Orthodox. And
so if you go to an Orthodox churchs

929
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,840
then yeah, what we've done is
done, and we leave you to the

930
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:34,039
hand of your spiritual father, to
your priest, and yeah, you know

931
01:10:34,119 --> 01:10:39,520
that it's their job, right,
it's their job. We've done what we

932
01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:43,800
could have done, right, So
