1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,439
Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,679
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,320
So let's turn it into a tool. This is Arrow unplugged.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,039
When it's extremely difficult to make up your mind. It's

5
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,000
called the power of choice, and having the power of

6
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,160
choice can actually weaken your heart. On this episode, we're

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,920
going to explore why there's a sudden shift in religion.

8
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:27,920
Why are people walking away? Plus with so much bad weather,

9
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,760
is it really a bad idea to shower during a thunderstorm?

10
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,560
My name is Arrow. Life is a series of choices.

11
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,759
Who decides when you're not making the right choice? Is

12
00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:41,119
it a fear of going wrong? The greatest lessons in

13
00:00:41,119 --> 00:00:44,560
life are often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts. Well,

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,479
it's time to reopen your heart. Having that power of

15
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,560
choice is your daily gift. On this highway, we've got

16
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,799
to learn how to trust mirages. What is the choice?

17
00:00:57,159 --> 00:01:00,479
With so much unrest in the world today, war, famine,

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,840
the economy, a government you can't trust. Are people making

19
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:08,079
the choice to walk away from religion? Why would a

20
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:11,680
higher power choose to let any of this even happen? Right? Well,

21
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,599
the answer is yes, people are walking away. People are

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,040
turning their backs all over the world. The term is

23
00:01:18,079 --> 00:01:24,079
called religious disaffiliation, the rise of nuns, not in uns,

24
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:30,480
but nuns n ees, those who answer to none. What's

25
00:01:30,519 --> 00:01:32,560
the story behind our open door to walk away from

26
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:39,959
religious studies? Well, distrust, scandals, political entanglements, and perceived hypocrisy.

27
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,200
There's a real generational shift evolving on the streets of

28
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,159
this everyday world. Gen zers and younger aren't buying into

29
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:52,000
the older generations. Spiritual studies, science and rationalism have opened

30
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,599
the door for people to truly see what the preacher

31
00:01:54,719 --> 00:01:58,640
is bringing and they are going ah, a A but but,

32
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,599
but but but are some areas of the world that

33
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,920
are seeing higher numbers in church attendance, like Africa and

34
00:02:04,959 --> 00:02:08,039
parts of Asia. It's reported that those who have left

35
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,759
the world of religion have actually discovered spirituality, which if

36
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,879
you properly study it, there is a big difference, and

37
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:21,280
believe it or not, it's more rewarding. Hey, coming up next,

38
00:02:21,479 --> 00:02:24,680
all of this bad weather around the world, and my

39
00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:26,800
wife looks at me and says, don't ever take a

40
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,240
shower during a thunderstorm? What is she talking about? Hey,

41
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,319
thanks for coming back to the choice. The entire planet

42
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:39,039
is currently experiencing very bad weather. It's affecting our lifestyle

43
00:02:39,439 --> 00:02:42,680
or should I say, our time in a shower or bath.

44
00:02:43,479 --> 00:02:45,360
Is it really a bad idea to take a bath

45
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,479
or shower during a thunderstorm? The experts say, don't even

46
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,960
think about it. Stay completely away from that space in

47
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,800
your home. If lightning strikes in your home or someone nearby,

48
00:02:58,319 --> 00:03:01,560
the electrical current can travel through through plumbing and hit

49
00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:04,759
you when you least expect it. The CDC warns us

50
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:09,120
to stay completely away from all things plumbing, including washing

51
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,879
your hands and doing the dishes, even touching the water faucet.

52
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,080
So when can we make the choice to return to

53
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,039
a normal lifestyle, I mean, I gotta go. It suggested

54
00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:22,680
that you wait thirty minutes from the last clap of thunder.

55
00:03:23,199 --> 00:03:25,960
The weather experts aren't laughing this off. It is not

56
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:30,080
an urban legend. They believe lightning is very unpredictable and

57
00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:33,520
very deadly. Rarely do we ever hear about someone dying

58
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,360
while sitting on the john when lightning strikes. They do

59
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,080
suggest that you use great precautions and if you do

60
00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:44,479
have to go, do not flush the john. It is

61
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,360
a choice. I'm arrow, and that's what I was reading

62
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,759
while the sun was waking up on a brilliant new day.
