Speaker 1: Welcome to the Three Stories version of The Todd Herman Show.
Story number one, what Star Trek's Wrath of Khan taught
us about educated idiots and system thinking? And I'll provide
a one step easy question people can ask to avoid
systems thinking. Story number two, did you know that free
range preaching is not always legal? It's actually not. There's
states where free range parenting is expressly illegal. We'll talk
about that. And story number three is writing christ is
King on social media? Anti semitic and by the way,
can it be anti Christian? We'll talk about this with
the help of our YouTube channel YouTube dot com slash
at the Todd Herman Show and with God Almighty.
Speaker 2: But Todd Herman Show is one disapproved by big pharma,
technocurrats and tyrants everywhere, from the high mountains of Free
America the Emerald City X God to Herman.
Speaker 1: Today is the day the Lord has made in These
are the times to which God has decided we shall live.
There's a scene in the Star Trek movie The Wrath
of con that this is the first con This is
the movie version, not the TV version, not the third
what version? This is the middle version with Captain Kirk
and there is a scene that just shows what educated
idiots can be like, or system thinkers, people who are
wedded to systems, people who have been educated into believing
this system is the thing that their intelligence rises above all.
They can be trapped into this weird plane of thought
where they cannot see alternatives. We've seen this happen in
approaches to so called public health. We've seen this happen
with our Federal Reserve trapping themselves in a corner. They
have two levers, interest rates up, interest rates down. We've
seen this in government. Are we gonna spend more money
or cut more money? A lot of highly educated people
trapped in one plane of thought, unable to see alternatives
above or below. And this really came about as watching
and researching this phenomenon. This came up Star Trek's Wrath
of Khan. I'll show you this in a second. I'll
show you this and ask you to really think about
your system, your system during the holidays. Does your emotional
system spike during the holidays? Are they going to like
the gift? Do we have enough people coming over? Do
we have too many people come over? Did we staff
this well enough? Are we gonna be able to take
this break. Are we going to make it across the pass?
Did our airplane tickets arrive?
Speaker 2: Do?
Speaker 1: Are we gonna make it there on time?
Speaker 2: Hey?
Speaker 1: What if there's a security mishap? It can all lead
to just stressing out, freaking out, and kind of ruin
your Christmas or holiday experience. But it doesn't need to
be that way. Magnesium breakthrough I've talked about with the
sleep benefits. I don't know that I've spent enough time
talking about the fact that it helps control the stress
hormone cortisol. It does, it calms you. It can also
lead to more energy. Wait is that oxymoronic? It calms
you and leads to more energy. No, when your mind rests,
your body rests, when it's time to expel energy, it's

to this. Hello are friends, Dear friends, dear friends at
YouTube climing copyright using this as a bit of societal
analysis and a little mini movie review. It's a good
movie here it is check off. Walking into the bridge
a traffic abut signed out could be an impulse turn.
He won't break off now.
Speaker 2: He followed me this far. I'll be back, but from where.
Speaker 1: He's intelligent but not experienced. This pattern indicates two dimensional thinking.
I love the relationship. Both stops her.
Speaker 3: C minus ten thousand meters stand by photon torpedos.
Speaker 1: They're lowering themselves ten thousand meters. He's breaking the two
dimensional plans. Con came from a period of time where
war was done on the seas, on land. So he's
now floating through space. A brilliant man, genetically engineered to
be brilliant, who never had to learn warfare on anything
but a two dimensional plane. The scene now from the Enterprise,
as the viewer, oh, that's the Khan's ship. He doesn't see,
of course Kirk, because Kirk is below him. His screen
is wigging out there in this strange electrical storm or
what they call that, And up behind conship comes NCC
one seven one zero. Kirstie Ali at the helm with Chekhov.
She's serving beers to clearing up. There is conship appearing fire.
This strikes a low for the higher iteration two dimensional thinking.
Here's a question you can ask if you're confronting someone
who is a system thinker. System thinkers do this. This
is the way it's always meant. Why why is it
always that way? You can look at this from a
perspective of public health, Well we have to scare people.
Why why not just inform them the Federal Reserve, well,
we only have two levers. We can raise interest rates,
or we can lower interest rates. Or you could come
out and say, you know what, we're not smart enough
to manipulate markets. We've trapped ourselves. We get it. We
need to make a change. Taxation. Spend more, tax more?
What about this? What about rewarding efficiency? Don't make the
argument spending more, taxing more? What if you reward efficiency?
What if you did what Washington, DC never wants to do.
What if you open the whole system up. What if
you did the last thing on earth that you would
ever think of doing, which is to open the doors.
What if you actually took your fear of transparency and
transferred that into complete transparency. What if, in other words,
you let a whole bunch of Jim Kirks who aren't
system thinkers, who are not raised in government, who didn't
spend their entire lives working in a system where if
you want more money, you take more money. What if
instead you opened up your books, your spreadsheets, and your
analysis and your macros and your performance data and your
key performance indicators and your staff calls and your HR
reviews to everybody because I have a running company. What
if you took their input as they looked for areas
of efficiencies. What if it was as simple as relying
on the mass of wisdom that God gave human beings.
See Jim Kirk in that scene represents the everyman. He's
not genetically engineered like con created to be a perfect
soldier and a perfect thinker and a perfect strategist. Jim
Kirk earned his stripes, and in that very scene you
see an interaction with a friend who see things completely differently. Spock,
he's the one who gives Kirk the information. Kahn is
a system thinker, He's a two plane thinker. And then
with that smirk, you see the cowboy Jim Kirk. There's
a whole bunch of cowboys who could help with public health.
They could help with budgets, they could even help militarily.
It would be a challenge for DC to admit that
they need this help. It would require them to do
something that's very, very difficult to do, and con could
not do it. It could not humble himself. Remember this,
There's a reason God hates human pride. And by the way,
that's why he kind of smirks out story number two.
Did you know that there is not a free range
parenting law in every state? There's some states where free
range parenting is in fact expressly illegal. In fact, in
the state of Utah, which is pretty pro family, they
actually had to pass a free range parenting law. I'll
show you this and then I need to share with
you something I'm not certain I can get through without crying.
That's the whole design of this. It's something that Apple
put out that relates to a pro family message. And
by the way, I showed this to my wife, she
cried for the same reasons. It might get to you
as well. Is this a turn? Is Apple actually turning
to be pro family? I doubt it, very very much.
They know what they're doing to manipulate us. But again,
conservatives have a choice, particularly Christian conservatives. We can mock this,
we can deride it, we can be cynical about it,
or we can say, hey, well done, more of this.
What would that mean to Apple? I don't know. Maybe
it would be a shift in how they think about us.
This is the Utah free range parenting story. Then I'll
show you this Apple ad. They actually had to encode
this in law in Utah.
Speaker 4: When Melissa Butler sends nine year old Guy and seven
year old Sammy off to school, they walk alone.
Speaker 2: Ultimately, I decided my parenting decisions are not going to
be based on fear.
Speaker 4: Butler's no longer concerned because Utah's free range parenting law
prevents parents from being prosecuted for allowing kids to roam
on her Why would you even need to put a
lot like this into place.
Speaker 2: That's a good question.
Speaker 4: Utah State Representative Brad Dawgs.
Speaker 2: Nobody wants to see a kid abducted, but everybody wants
a kid to be a kid. So how do we
find that balance.
Speaker 4: The idea can be traced back to something former New
York columnist Lenor Skenese wrote a decade ago. She led
her then nine year old son ride the New York
City subway and got labeled worlds worse mom.
Speaker 3: If you're neglecting a child, that's awful. You will be prosecuted.
If you're trusting your child and you've taught them to
cross the street and look both ways and not go
off with strangers, you're an old fashioned parent, and that's
not against the law.
Speaker 1: Old fashioned parenting. See free range is a new term.
It used to just be parenting. If you lived at
a farm and your kids were in the house all
day long, they weren't good kids. There ought to be
out working. When they weren't working, there ought to be playing.
That story is from March of twenty eighteen, and in
twenty twenty four, we just had a parent arrested in Georgia.
We showed you that on the program because her nine
year old kid walk to a gas station apparently to
visit his friend's mother. And the cops showed up or
kind of cops. I don't think they're really law enforcement
officers if they're willing to do that. I know they
wear the badge. I know they've got the paycheck. I
know it says sheriff's deputy. But those aren't cops, So
little tyrants? Is your state free range parenting safe? Have
you looked into this? You probably should, particularly if you're
a young parent, because I don't want to see you
at a jail cell do to paranoia and corruption, nor
do I want to see you in the case of
a lot of friends of mine, A lot of friends
of mine are bent, and they have trouble walking, and
they make noises when they get up, and they're my age,
some of them are younger. Some of them have given
in to this myth, and this myth is that you
have to have surgery or drugs to live a comfortable
life at our age or to do things you like.
It pains me mentally. It also kind of pains me
physically to watch this, particularly because it's driven by corruption.
If you're an older person and you're sick of being
told it's another surgery, it's another set of pills and
you've got a little bit of money to spend on healthcare,
why not be pain free to the degree that's possible.
You can go to renew Dot Healthcare in Port of
art to Mexico for a three, four, maybe five day
vacation at a great all inclusive resort that's a fifteen
minute walk from renew They will give you a stem
cell treatment from ethically gathered stem cells. This comes from
placentas and aabilical cords only. And if you've got some
money to spend on this, go try the infusion. Now,
I'm telling you right now, this is an expensive thing,
but I'm telling you right now it is world class.
The stem cells are deployed about forty five million at
a time or more throughout your entire body. These stem
cells are miraculous. They're packed with building power. That's what
they do. They build baby so they can rebuild cartilage, muscle, tendon.
But what's most incredible is they us destroy inflammation. So
getting the infusion, having it throughout your body destroys inflammation
in your body. That is a long lasting approach to this.
The other thing it does is, yes, rebuilds, but there's
this It finds the hot spots. The stem cells have
this incredible ability to find the areas in your body
where they are needed. Get in there and go to work.
Now Again, if you've got money to spend on this,
the infusion is a great option. And incidentally, if your
wife or your husband is someone who's really really into
esthetics and they're using botox, you know what that is, right,
That's that's cow bacteria from gross places, from cows. They
have an aesthetics treatment there that is world class. Same
thing with the stem cells. Instead of kind of paralyzing
your face, why not rebuild the tissue. Find out if
you want to do this again. This is going to
be costly, but man is in a return on investment.
Go to renew Healthcare it's our e n U E
dot Healthcare and tell them that you are a member
of the Todd Hermann Show family in any platform renew
r E n U E dot Healthcare. This turn from
Apple is either a sign that they have recognized how
corrupt they become in terms of being anti family, or
or they're being very cynical and very good at it.
I vote cynical and good at it. It doesn't mean, though,
that this ad is not brilliant, and it doesn't mean
that I necessarily believe I can even get through it
without crying. Again. It's a dad sitting in a front
room as this little girl, probably ten eleven twelve, is
getting a gift. You notice that the ad goes in
and out through audio clarity to being very unclear in audio.
Now there's a reason for that, and it comes out
in the Apple product they pictured got it last week.
Speaker 2: I think I know what it is. Oh guys, thank
you the time that you want.
Speaker 1: Shifting to the dad's point of view, audio is garbled,
but Dad is watching carefully. Suddenly he thinks of his
little girl when she was a little baby. Her little
baby guitar and big tickles me. I love you, she says, going.
Speaker 5: To school, John, listen.
Speaker 1: He picks up his Apple earbuds. Light the fire you
place the flowers in the new hearing Aid features.
Speaker 2: Pro today.
Speaker 1: Marrying my car's so excited. You'self, you will get the
long house rollo what exact? Everything easy?
Speaker 2: Easy? Because I love you that you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So she looks like our daughter, blond haired and blue eyed.
Looks like her daughter before the bad thing happened and
she changed. So when I see it. I feel a
painful a thing I'll never know again. I'll never know
that innocence. I'll never know that glee. I see it
in glimpse glimpses I played for you on the show
my daughter allowing me to play the song that we
sang when she was little. Love goes around in a
circle side by side with the one when she did
when she was really little, which you did this past
one about six months ago. But I'll never relive Daddy
tickle me again. And as I watched that, I feel
this pain because how cool it was to be the
magic parent, to be able to bring that joy. Here's
the turn. God wants that from us. He misses us
that way. What happened to when you could look at
my creation with awe? When was the last time you
looked at something I made, mountains, the ocean, your child.
Speaker 2: With awe?
Speaker 1: When was the last time you worshiped with abandon? When
was last time that the psalms overtook you? Or Christian
music repeating the psalms quoting them overtook you? When was
the last time you simply were okay, knowing that everything
is easy because of me. I've given you the common blessings.
I've given you what you need. When was the last
time you just relaxed and said, Father, I love you.
I mean, I don't think that's going on in Cupertino,
but you never know, because God is always working even
when it seems he's not. Story number three. It has
become a cause celeb in community Christian conservative circles, particularly
Catholic circles, to state Christ is King. Indeed, Christ is King?
But can this be anti Semitic? Can it be anti Christian?
There are people who contend that writing Christ of christis
King is anti Semitic. Some of them work at the
Daily Wire, and I have cautioned that this can offend people.
It could create problems for families. I remember a Daily
Wire commentator said about people saying christis King around Ben Shapiro.
I think it was Andrew Clavin. Andrew Clavin has come
to the Lord. He said, no, I wouldn't say that
around Ben because it could cause problems to this family.
Andrew actually said at one point, sure, of course, I
hope my friend Ben comes to the Lord Jesus, but
it could cause a real division in his family. But
I mean, we need to be praying our friends into
heaven and getting out of God's way so that they
can see are His face through us. I don't think
there should be a butt. If you're friends with Beren,
you should be hoping that Ben comes to the Lord
Jesus so that Ben is saved, and that Ben then
allows God to work through him to bring his wife
and his kid into heaven, because Jesus is the Truth,
the Way, and the life, and no one gets to
the Father but through him. I didn't invent the rules.
I'm quoting the rules. So is that anti Semitic? Let's
explore that. Let's look also at what the Catholic Church
actually teaches about Christ the King from something in nineteen
hundred that Pope Leo said, and we'll get into that
a second. Speaking of God, speaking of religion, speaking of science, Well, yeah,
God invented the world. He invented everything we observe. He
invented our DNA, he invented genome. That's why I wonder
if God laughs when you say with the human genome project, Wait,
that's my project. I get it. You're saying those are
genomes in humans, but don't call that the human genome project.
That was mine. I thought of the whole thing. God
provided us to the common blessings. As I just mentioned,
and throughout the Bible you see focus put on elements
that we wouldn't think about. There's a reason that they
talk about the land of milk and honey. I mean, look,
just go to sor get yourself some milk and honey.
Not that easy when you've been trapsing through the desert
for fifty years. It's not that easy to maintain cows
or to find honey. So they talk about that. There's
a reason that it is thought of as precious. There's
a reason that the wise men brought herbs and spices
to the Lord Jesus because they were hard to come by.
And yet they're mentions time and time and time again
in the Bible. King David talked about them cleanse me
with hissop and I would be pure indeed, of course,
through God, not to the hissop. There's a doctor I
became aware of named Patrick Gantempo is a podcast about
combining biblical wisdom with scientific rigor. He created a product
called Wisdom. I'm going to give you the url in
a second. I heard about the product, I saw the podcast,
I tried the product. I got in touch with Radio
America Sales, who does a good portion of the sales
for a show. There are weekend show radio syndicator and
I said to Jen Man, if we could get in
touch with these guys, here's the crazy thing. Some of
the leadership at Wisdom watches the show. Oh gosh, we'd
love to talk to Todd. So the product combines biblical
wisdom and scientific rigor to help you restore vitality, gain
mental clarity, create better sleep, help you with joint health, detoxification,
a healthy response to inflammation. Inflammation is telling our body something.
It's a It is a mix of holy basal, frankincense,
It's a mix of the herbs that are mentioned so
often in the Bible, and it's in an oil base.
It is utterly delicious. My twenty year old daughter puts
this in her coffee. She loves to get the lift
of coffee, but she doesn't like the jitters. I take
it straight during the middle of the day to relax
into the day. Because I'm a pretty wired dude. Given
what I do and how hard I work out, I
can't emphasize enough how good it tastes. So give yourself,
a joy, a biblical herbs and scientific rigor. Try it now.
So go to try wisdom now dot com slash tod.
That's try wisdomnow dot com slash tod, and you can
stock up on wisdom for up to an incredible thirty
three percent off and they're going to cover the shipping
this first time around. They'll pay for the shipping thirty
three percent off. So again the url is try wisdom
now dot com slash tod. Save that thirty three percent
and then let me know what you think of biblical
herbs combined with scientific river. That's try wisdomnow dot com
slash tod. There is a fact that Jesus Christ is king.
That's a fact. But king of what Christ did not
seek to be king of this world? How do he
sought to be king of this world? News flash? He
would be Every knee would bow and every tongue would confess.
I mean, you can live in a land that's a monarchy.
You can hate the king. You can say the king
is a jerk, you can say the king is unfair,
The king is ugly, he stinks, he's fat, and he's goofy,
and he's the king. Everyone confesses that because it's clearly obvious,
there will come a time where every knee will bow
and every tongue will confess that Lord Jesus is in
fact the Lord, the Messiah and king. People will recognize.
It doesn't mean that everyone will live by that. If
Jesus had chosen to be king of the world, then
the resurrection wouldn't have been necessary because the Crucifixion would
not have occurred. You don't get to grab the king
of the world and whip him and try to belittle
him and spit upon him and try to take his
dignity and ultimately kill his body. You don't get to
do that to a king unless there's been a mighty
battle and you've deposed his army. The Lord Jesus didn't
call his army. He had a whole army of angels
surrounding him from his realm. He is king of the universe,
He's king of souls. He's the one entity who can
harm body and soul. I mean, we can harm bodies,
we can harm souls, but not like he can eternally forever,
only one entity gets to do that. Is it antisemitic
to state that fact?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Can it be anti Christian. Well, when it's used to
beat up on people. I do not remember the Lord
Jesus coming and going straight into crowds and belittling them. Hey,
if you don't get that I'm king, get lost. I
mean yeah, shake the dust off your sandals. Walk from town.
They won't listen to your word, Move on, belittle them.
Jesus did that on a few rare occasions in arguments
with the Pharisees. But he knew what he was doing
with the Pharisees. He was promoting himself to others as
the person who would speak truth into this past. But
he didn't sit there and belabor it. He didn't walk
around with signs and their pictures on it. He didn't
mock until he was in these conversations. If we're using
Christ's King as something else, here's where it becomes anti Christian.
If you're using Christ's King by way of a political argument,
you are taking the Lord's name in vain. If you
are using Christ's King to promote conservative ideals, you are
using the Lord's name in vain. I know it's not cursing,
but you're taking his name and you are defocusing it.
He is king of souls. King of redemption. His blood
is the one way into Heaven only through him. So
if you're seeing Christ's king, to own the Libs, to
corner the sexual left, to win a political argument, to
win votes on earth, you are taking the Lord's name
in vain. I mean it means something. Christ is king,
particularly in the Catholic Church. It's meant something since around
nineteen hundred.
Speaker 5: Here's what the Catholic Church actually teaches about Christ is King.
Pope Saint Leo the thirteenth taught about this. That quote,
the world has heard enough of the rights of man,
let it hear the rights of God end quote. Is
not just a spiritual platitude about the next world. Christ
said that he was king, but that his kingdom was
not of this world. He meant that he hadn't come
to depose Rome or the civil power, or to establish
a theocracy. He had something bigger in mind. Pope Pious
the eleventh taught on these words of our Lord, saying, quote,
it would be a grave error to say that Christ
has no authority whatever in civil affairs end quote. And
Saint Paul said of civil rulers, there is no power
but from God. Natural reason alone, says that the state
has a duty to recognize and worship God. But this
must be in accordance with true religion, which is that
of Jesus Christ. Christ has purchased us all by his blood.
This is why he said all power is given to
me in heaven and on earth. Christ should be recognized,
the Church should be established as the state. Religion and
laws should be in keeping with Christian principles. This doesn't
mean we should impose Christianity by the sword, or that
Congress should check each law with Rome. The state is
sovereign in its own sphere. But we must restore all
things in Christ and work for the Christianization of society.
Speaker 1: Now, the Christianization of society, and what John Henry said
there is very very important, John Henry West, what he
said there's very very important. Not at the tip of
the sword. Jesus never forced people to follow him, and
he could have, well, God could have forced us to
love him, and not just to love him, but to
obey him. He didn't want robots. Cult leaders are in love.
They're feared. They've conned people into thinking they love them.
They're feared they've taken over people's minds. God never wanted
to do that. Jesus never practiced that, not at the
tip of the spear. If people are using the word
Christ is King as a political spear, it's anti Christian,
it belittles God, it takes his name in vain. If,
on the other hand, you are using it as an invitation,
that's different. So maybe this is the phrase to use.
Come and learn why Christ is king, Come and learn
about his kingdom. This is the Todd Hermann Shaw. Please go,
be well, be strong, be kind, and please make every
effort to walk in the light of Christ.
