The war drums continue to beat in the

to understand just how far things are
progressing would be Japan, Japan.
For the first time, since the cold war
has begun nationwide drills to prepare and
protect their people from the intimate,
incoming missile strikes at the same
time, Australia, the United States.
And the UK have left France out in
the cold as they created the occas.
Now, if you want to know what France
really thinks about it, all you have

Hey, it's Lucas Skrobot and
you're listening to the Lucas
Skrobot show where we uncover.
Pursue truth and own the future
episode 258 coming to you late in
the evening of September 19th, 2021
from the heart of the middle east.
And as I said, things are continuing
to heat up in the Indo-Pacific
region and we can witness.
Directly when we look at the steps
that Japan is beginning to take
to defend itself against not only
China, but North Korea, but who
are they more concerned about?
They're more concerned about China as.
The rest of the world.
We talked about this in the previous
episode, how America has begun to
with draw from the middle east.
Now you might be saying
both course they are.
I mean, I've been reading the news and
following your podcast for the last month.
Yeah.
We all know that they withdrew out of
Afghanistan, but their eyes have shifted.
I know that president Joe Biden kept on.
Speeches, when he's talking
about, we need to focus elsewhere.
He kept on talking about Al Shabaab
and in north Africa and all these other
terrorist organizations, but there's
also the increasing threat of China.
And that seems to be where
their eyes are focusing.
As America even began to with draw
a missile batteries, defense systems
from Saudi Arabia, one of America's
closest allies in the middle east.
In a time where Iran is growing in
power in a time where Iran is still
in a proxy war with Saudi Arabia and
Saudi Arabia is the power balance
of the holding and stability.
if that's a word stabilizing the region
right now in the middle east, but
they've pulled out those batteries.
There was, as we talked about in the
previous episode, because they're
beginning to focus elsewhere.
And where is that elsewhere?
That.
Is the south Pacific.
The elsewhere is China, China,
China, China, as our dear beloved
president, Donald Trump belated.
How would you say who has been
in the past former president?
Donald Trump.
We used to say China,
China, China, China, China.
I have to have my chain.
Oh, We miss him St.
China.
Well, here is a clip from.
Talking just about China, China, China,
but it starts with, uh, North Korea.
So beware for years, north Korean
missiles have posed a serious
threat to Japan's national security
threat housing.
Recently North Korea has test fired
several missiles, including long range,
cruise missiles, capable of striking,
almost any potential target in Japan and
even more concerning ballistic missiles
that on Wednesday bell into the waters
between Japan and the Korean peninsula.
Well, Japan's defense.
Now this, of course,
North Korea is a big deal.
They've been, they've been pushing
and, and definitely beating the war
drums for decades now, Northern.
Relies heavily on China.
China is one of the biggest aids
to North Korea is North Korea is
just in complete shambles there.
I don't know if you could
say they have an economy.
They're just totally.
No China wants to keep
North Korea wrangled in.
So it seems that China is a little
bit of a counterpoint to North
Korea because China doesn't want
to get involved and tied into a
conflict involving North Korea.
They are looking to establish
their world dominance.
They're looking to establish global
dominance primarily first and fourth.
Drew economics through trade.
And that is what they're
doing across the globe.
They have opened up fully
admitted and brought in Iran
as a full member of the S C O.
They have invited 33 Latin American
countries to be part of the Eurasia
African Americans, new silk road.
China is Axe has been and is
continuing to expand, but it seems.
There were other threats on the horizon
that maybe aren't so public that is
really catching the attention of the
west of America, of Australia, of the UK.
Enough for them to cut out France from a
deal of a billion dollars of, of defense
contracts with Australia to counter China.
Now, here is a clip.
I see.
Uh, the clip that we've been playing,
the clip goes on where the defense
minister of Japan is talking about
why they're concerned in how China
is beginning to provoke Japan.
That's minister Nobuo Kishi
says the ongoing hostility from
North Korea is a big challenge.
He says it isn't Japan's biggest security
concern as Japan's administered offense.
What threat keeps you up at?
It's an all luck.
China has been regularly challenging.
Japan's territorial integrity.
These actions are making it a fait
accompli in response to such moves.
We have to demonstrate our will to
protect the lives of Japanese citizens,
as well as their livelihoods and our.
The inheritance and they go on in this
clip with CNN to talk about a small
island chain near Taiwan, Taiwan,
which has also been in the news and
a question that people have been
raising will America abandoned Taiwan
to America, didn't fully abandoned,
but really didn't do much when during
the Hong Kong protests as Hong Kong.
Proudly w was waving.
The American flag did out there
crying for Liberty and freedom.
Uh, will America abandoned Taiwan as
America is pulled out of Afghanistan.
And it seems to be abandoning
and burning bridges, right.
And left.
Well, one of the bridges that
America has seemingly recently
burned is with France America.
One of them.
Oldest allies over a hundred years,
America and France have been strong
allies, but in this August deal,
this Australia and UK U S deal, they
America pushed for Australia to.
France out of eight 90 billion, Australian
dollar 65 billion U S dollar contract
where France was supposed to be building
nuclear, not nuclear, but submarines
advanced submarines for Australia,
not nuclear power submarines, which is
what they wanted and gods from the UK.
And the U S here is a little press
conference, uh, starting off, kicking
off with prime minister, Boris Johnson.
Dropped just after we recorded
the previous episode, we talked
about this last episode and
we said, we touched on it.
And so here is the actual
presser, uh, starting with
prime minister, Boris Johnson.
I'm delighted to join president Biden
and, uh, prime minister Morrison
two nights that the United Kingdom
Australia and the United States are
creating a new trilateral defense.
None as orcas with the aim of working
hand in glove to preserve security
and stability in the Indo Pacific
because of China, we're opening
a new chapter in our friendship.
And the first task of this partnership
will be to help Australia acquire a
fleet of nuclear powered submarines.
Emphasizing of course
that the submarines in.
We'll be powered by nuclear
reactors, not armed with new.
You got to make that point clear.
You definitely don't want people to
think that Australia might have a nuke.
We've seen what they're doing
in new south Wales and Victoria
with the insane lockdowns.
Um, maybe it's wise that prime minister,
Boris Johnson mentioned that, but a
nuclear submarine is an amazing feat.
Having a nuclear reactor, powering,
assembling, enabling it to stay under.
Forever, uh, quite, uh, uh, technology,
technological, feat, and advancement
that is going to be given to Australia.
But as you said, the first step, the first
step was really to cut France out of,
as I said, eight $90 billion Australian
deal, which comes out to 65.7 billion
U S dollars in France is not happy.
They're very, so much.
The foreign minister said that he felt
quote stabbed in the back unquote over the
unacceptable deal that will hurt French
business and shut the French military
out of a key initiative that the west is
building in order to defend against China.
He says, quote, this unilateral
brutal unforeseeable decision
really looks like what Mr.
Trump was generally doing.
Of course.
Of course, this is the, the classic.
Everyone thought that this was how B,
how Trump would pull out of Afghanistan.
There would be a mess.
So this is how Trump would just stab their
partners and their allies in the back.
When in reality, Trump's
foreign policy was excellent.
Trump.
Even though he had some, he had faults in
not defending and, and standing by Saudi
assets or Saudi, uh, alliances because
of said, well, these are, you know,
Saudi's interests, not America's interest.
As we covered.
In the previous episode, there are faults
that he has when it comes to his foreign
policy, but he did a, a much better.
At defending and standing with
allies versus what we're seeing
right now with president Joe Biden.
Now this, this has a huge impact on
the way the rest of the world will move
because if the reputation of America is
so tarnished, people will begin to move
towards China to face towards China,
do set up deals with them to build.
Their own security.
People are going to be
looking to other places.
It is already happening.
It is already happening
well, France is not happy.
They even pulled two of their
ambassadors, the ambassador to the U
S and the ambassador from Australia.
We need to at least have some
sort of demonstration, some sort
of theatrical show to demonstrate
how displeased we are now.
They didn't pull their ambassador from the
UK because they said that well, the UK is
just trying to get a gerrymander, a great
position, and they're always opportunists.
So we don't even need to bother with
pulling someone from the UK because this
is how they've always been, but they
want to send the message loud and clear.
Some people think.
The United States, we'll throw them some,
some compromises, whether it's, uh, deals,
uh, other contracts, no one quite knows,
but they think it's going to be pretty
short-lived before Frances or Paris.
France is back on the, uh, Band wagon.
Uh, France also had some pretty
harsh things to say about Australia.
That Australia is still just
the runner dog for America.
Now, also in this presser.
Um, I mean, I guess it's not shocking,
a pretty standard moment for president
Biden and not bringing this up to
make fun or mock our president.
My president, maybe not your president.
I'm not saying this to mock it,
but it, this is the leader of the.
The elected leader of a nation.
It's not a king or a Monarch
where as they grow older, there's
other people who are put in place.
And this is just the way things go.
This person was elected as the primary
leader of the most powerful, if not,
you know, maybe that's waning, but
the most powerful nation in the world
forgetting the name of his closest ally.
Because they're striking
this deal together.
One of their closest allies, prime
minister Morrison for getting
his name in a press conference
where there's two names, two
names that you need to remember.
Two names, a 20 minute press conference.
Hey, here's the clip.
And I want to thank, uh,
that fell down under.
Thank you very much, Val.
Appreciate just the prime minister.
I want to fake that fellow.
I want to think that fellow down
under thank you for thanks, pal.
I mean, this is, this is the
person leading America in the.
So I hope someone steps in and
does something because this is,
this is, I don't find this funny.
I'm not mocking.
I don't think this is so hilarious.
This is actually quite scary.
It's scary to think that the person
in charge can't remember someone's
name now there's many times.
I can't remember someone's name
there's many times that I forget names.
I have moments.
The lips of my mind, where I can't
remember the right word, we all do, but
the expectation would be when you're
going into any meeting and you're
presenting in front of millions of
people worldwide with prime ministers
of two of the world's superpowers, as
you announced a pretty groundbreaking
deal that you would make sure you.
The name of the two people that you're
speaking to, that that should be
somewhat of a given, well, France, as
I said, really not really not happy.
The French embassy, us embassy, uh,
the French embassy in the United States
said the American choice to exclude a
Euro, ally and partner such as France.
From a structuring partnership with
Australia at a time when we are
facing unprecedented challenges
in the Indo-Pacific region shows
a lack of coherence that France
can only note and regrets.
France is really not happy in this.
It's not, this is not
the way to treat allies.
This is not the way to treat
friends, but I guess it is.
And it's not just France.
That is feeling.
Pakistan is also quite upset
and fueling, uh, feeling the
sting of being the scapegoat for
America's failures in Afghanistan.
I do blame Pakistan for this debacle.
This is the prime minister,
Imran Khan in Afghanistan.
It is the most painful thing
for us to listen to bugger.
Stan is the country that.
The greatest number of sacrifices too,
for the American war in Austria, Pakistan
was asked to join this, uh, this, uh,
invasion of Afghanistan by the medical
is become part of this coalition.
When Pakistan had nothing to do with nine
11, there was no Pakistan involved in it.
Al-Qaeda was in Afghanistan.
There were no militant
Taliban in Pakistan.
We had no reason to enter that.
But unfortunately our military dictator
at the time to get Acceptibility from
the Americans, he took us into this war.
Now, of course, there are a lot of
criticisms and a lot of them rightful
criticisms against Pakistan for
funding, the Taliban for, uh, for
housing then before to really create
a Petri dish, to allow them to grow.
And there's many people who are.
That Pakistan helped fuel this
Pakistan helped fight against
the national resistance fronts
in the pens, your province.
So there's a lot of arguments of people
saying pack Pakistan's a little bit
complicit in what the Taliban have done
and are currently doing in the nation.
But I have to say the prime minister has.
Pakistan right now is becoming
the scapegoat of America.
And again, an American ally, a NATO ally
that fought alongside of us in pockets
in Afghanistan, giving I believe 80,000
lives, not to mention as he goes on
to say in this clip, which we were not
going to play, but the number of people
who lost limbs and the number of attacks
that they faced in Pakistan because of.
Citing and because of their engagement
in this war that lasted the last 20 years
and other people are being considered
and being thanked and being applauded.
But now here's Pakistan,
another ally being escape goat.
This is just not a great look for foreign
policy in America and across the world.
Speaking.
Uh, great look and have pretty bad luck.
We talked about this again.
Two episodes go episode 2 56, about
how the New York times broke a story
of how that the last drone strike in
Afghanistan that supposedly killed
an ISIS member that was about to bomb
the airport again, that we covered.
How that was completely not true.
Well, here is the us government fighting.
Uh, confirming everything that the New
York times said and admitting that they
killed a completely innocent family.
Here is general McKinsey
taking responsibility for this
peripheric horrific accident.
Can you even say accident war
crime, this horrific practice.
We're this family, young
kids to two-year-old kids.
Infants seven year olds, four
year olds lost their life in this
needless attack, drone strike having
thoroughly reviewed the findings of
the investigation and the supporting
analysis by inter-agency partners.
I am now convinced that as many as
10 civilians, including up to seven
children were tragically killed in that.
Moreover, we now assess that it is
unlikely that the vehicle and those
who died or associated with ISIS K or
we're a direct threat to the U S forces.
I offer my profound condolences
to the family and friends
of those who were killed.
This strike was taken in the earnest
belief that it would prevent an
imminent threat to our forces and
the evacuees at the airport, but it
was a mistake and I offer my sincere
apology as the combatant command.
I am fully responsible for this
strike in his tragic outcome.
Uh, the heartbreaking thing
is that a sincere apology.
It doesn't, it doesn't fix the problem.
It doesn't solve the problem.
One article, I was reading that the
family says no one's reached out to them.
No, one's talked to them.
No, one's apologized.
Now will that change in the coming days?
I don't know.
I certainly hope so, but what, what
could be said, what could be done
when you've lost multiple children?
We've lost brothers, young kids.
Uh, there's.
There's no way to, to bring, to
bring these innocent lives back.
Not only innocent lives,
but innocent lives.
Working, not that, I mean, it does
matter, but not that it matters, but
working in the NGO, serving their
people, getting food to people who
were hungry, uh, just unthinkable.
And so, um, I'm glad that America is
at least in video in speech owning this
and saying, yeah, we made a mistake.
But so far, no one's resigned.
And the rest of the press conference,
they went on to explain which I do
understand why, why they would be
doing this and went on to explain,
this is the intelligence that we had.
This is the situation that was in, this
is what happened just days before with the
bombing that killed 13 service members.
And over a hundred, uh, was 170,
um, civilians.
Some who, who died by gunfire after
the bombing, when soldiers thought
that there could be possibly more
suicide bombers in the group, horrible.
This was the situation that this,
this drone strike took place in.
So they went on to explain
that the Intel that they had.
Went on to take this strike that
turned out to be incredibly broad,
just, just completely a hundred
percent off base in a crawl.
Transitioning a little bit too.
It's still sticking on some of these,
these three main nations, France,
which has been talking about America.
Of course, and Australia, all three
of them share something in common.
They are beginning to push a vaccine,
mandates vaccine passports and mandating
it for government workers and employees.
Well across all things.
Uh, they witnessed over this last week
and weekend, just incredibly crowded,
just protests, filling the streets in
New York, in Australia and in France
here is a, a couple of little clips from.
This is from New York people shouting.
They have waged war on our
biology and we're waging war.
Oh my gosh.
Thank goodness.
This guy is just so intense here.
Here's a clip from Australia,
just hundreds, hundreds of people.
Against a line of police officers
and the people just March forward
and just, just bum rush all the cops.
It's just an absolute man, absolute chaos
that is breaking out across the world
when it comes to these, these lockdowns,
when it comes to these government matters.
And when it comes to people's responses
saying no, w w we're not going to carry
our papers around with us and beep in
everywhere we go, the same thing in
France, a little bit, much more peaceful
of a picture with thousands of people
crowding the streets slowly marching
through the streets of France saying
we will not comply to your government
mandate and many people in America.
Are saying that they will not comply.
And that is a violation of speech.
There's been a lot of comparisons
that have been going around.
How, how in Germany during
Hitler's rise to power, there
was again the pandemic of 1918.
And we've discussed this on the
show we'd discussed, uh, with
some clips from Jordan Peterson.
How pandemics and how health crisises
tend to lead people towards more
conservatism in their population,
in, in their groups, because they are
afraid they're staying into groups
that people that they know and they're,
they're pushing against anything that
could potentially be a danger to them.
Anything that's new that is coming in.
And so what they, what they saw in.
Was a big cleaning, a public health
move to rid the city of rats and
then to cleanse the factories and the
employees of TB people had to carry
their health papers around with them.
And then that moved on to more
genocidal tendencies where the same
language that was being used against
viruses or against rats calling them.
Fermin's.
Was begun to be used against the
Jews calling the Jews vermins.
And then that started the, uh, the
attempt to extinct all the Jews and
the gas chambers, and the same gas that
they use to purify these factories.
They used in the gas chambers to
kill and in their mind purify a jury.
Of the Jewish people to
create a pure area and race.
This is what people are afraid of when
these, these lockdowns are happening.
When the vaccine passports are
being pushed on people, they are
afraid of an overstep of power.
They're afraid of an overstep.
In a post-truth society where we
have exchanged the truth for lies in
reason for postmodern irrationality,
the absurd finally make sense.
Today's yeah, that makes sense.
Segment is we're talking about the
Pope and abortion a little bit more
as a, I've been embroiled in some
conversations on the gram about this.
And the took Pope said something.
Two things.
He said something that I completely
a hundred percent agree with and
I applaud and I love and another
thing, which it can cause people to
scratch their head and get confusing.
And we'll, we'll play this out.
It's not actually a clip that we're
going to be able to play for you, but
I'm going to read an article on the 15th.
This is from Reuters on the
15th Pope Pope Francis said on
Wednesday, that abortion is.
Even soon after conception, but keep your
to criticize some of the U S Catholic
bishops for the dealing for the way that
they deal with the U S president Joe
Biden and his pro-choice position in a
political rather than a pastoral way.
So the two points that
we're going to cover.
Abortion is murder as the Pope says,
and we're going to break down why he's
saying that what he means by that.
And then the second thing is at what point
does our personal beliefs or personal
views, when does that come to political?
When does that come of just a week?
You've gotten too far off.
They've just become so political.
They're just, everything is all political.
We're going to be talking
about that political spirit.
If you will, if you, if you're
not from a strong Christian
background and Christian dumb, they
frequently talk about two different.
Spirits are two different ways a person
could act and fall into the ditch.
On the side of the roads.
One would be a religious spirit or
becoming overtly religious and re
religiosity or a political spirit.
And we're going to talk about both of
those in the latter, half of the segment.
So stay tuned for that, but
this is what the Pope said.
He said, abortion is murder.
Those who carry out abortions.
At the third week of conception,
often even before the mother is aware
of being pregnant, all the organs
are already starting to develop.
It is a human life period and this
human life has to be respected.
It is very clear scientifically,
and I would add biologically,
it is a human life.
At conception.
It is a human life.
When you look across the span of a baby in
its mother's womb, there is no one place
that you can point to say right there.
Life began.
There's nothing special that happens
between between 12 weeks and 13 weeks.
There's nothing special that
happens between 39 and a half weeks.
And when the baby comes out, the birthing
canal, there's nothing special that
happens in the life of that child.
Outside of conception at the moment
of conception, it is a unique human
being with a hundred percent unique
DNA to itself is a person and that
person's life should be defended.
Now that the arguments that have been
thrown my way, most of them are just
trying to detract and distract from.
The real circumstances that 95% of
pregnancies that end up in abortion in
America, 95% are because of inconvenience.
People will throw out the arguments
of, of rape and incidence, which is
0.5% less than 1% come from abortions
happen because of rape and incense.
And then the other thing that
people frequently throw out is.
It's excuses or exemptions of
saying, well, medical needs.
What if the mom and the
baby are both going to die?
Who, who are you going to save?
And in the case of the Texas law, if
you're not familiar with the Texas law,
Texas just passed a law saying that
once the heart starts beating, once
you can hear a heartbeat of a baby in
the wound, which is around six weeks,
Then it is illegal to kill that baby,
but there's a loophole, a big loophole,
which is if there is some sort of
medical reason that they would need to
save the mother's life, then they're
able to still perform an abortion.
So all the arguments that are being
thrown my way about this, it just,
they're just, they're irrelevant
arguments they're trying to do.
They're trying to make a fringe case.
The.
They're trying to argue for 95% of
people aborting their, their children
because of inconvenience or wrong timing.
They're trying to justify that
by a small fringe of 0.5% when it
comes to rape and incense, incest,
excuse me, and medical situation.
And in both, at least in this Texas
law, both are being provided for
whether I think that abortions should,
should still be allowed or not.
In the specific case that we're
talking about, the Texas case, those
are all being provided for right now
with the current, with the current.
Another argument that
had been made as well.
It would be horrible.
And this is what would be said on, uh,
we'll be Goldberg had said on the view, it
would be horrible if you know what happens
when those people have the babies and the
babies are then, or God forbid killed.
So wait, so you're saying that we're
instead, we're going to victimize the.
Even more because if the baby's
going to become a victim, when they
grow older and be killed, let's kill
them before they become a victim.
So we're going to make them a victim.
Like how does that work in any
other area or space of life?
No, instead we need to defend the, would
be victim and prosecute the victimizer.
That is justice.
That is how it works, but they
have, there has been times
throughout history, quite notable.
We're, it was easier to change the
law, to allow the victimized, to remain
victims by making them less than human.
Uh, I can think of a couple slavery
that has been pretty much in the
news since I dunno a long time, but
definitely since 2020, it's been
top, top line slavery reparations.
I can think of some more examples.
Oh, in the Gulag.
I can think of some more examples.
Oh, in the gas chambers, that moment that
you make someone they're not, they're not
really a person they're not fully human.
We can victimize them.
It's okay.
We'll make it legal.
That is injustice.
And the thought of creating even more just
world by the leading people who would so.
Injustice does not make the world
just so you can't just erase someone.
Who's now who's suffering, who is
being killed and you erase them
and then it makes that go away.
No, it's quite the opposite.
You need to defend it.
Well, the reason that we unpack all
of that is because the question that
I asked that a lot of people are
asking, and even here, the Pope is
asking and the same at the end of this.
Uh, piece by Reuters.
He says, Pope Francis says, the pastor
knows what to do at any moment, but if he
leaves the pastoral process of the church,
he immediately becomes a politician.
So the question is when does
a person have the cloth?
Whether it's a pastor or whether
it's a Bishop or whether it's,
uh, an EMOM or whether it's, uh,
just a person like you or me when.
When do we take a step past our personal,
our quote-unquote personal beliefs and
step into what would be called a political
spirit or becoming too political?
You know, this show it,
it is very political.
We talk a lot about political geopolitical
happenings in the world, but is it.
Politicized, does it have a
political spirit about it?
Well, we have to say, what
is a political spirit?
What, what does that mean?
Well, you can think of your workplace.
Maybe, maybe you've experienced time
in a workplace that was just super.
With workplace politics in order
to get anything done, get to
get the right person on board.
And that right person had to
be satisfied the right way.
And then you had to make sure to go
to this other team and company, a team
within the company and get them on board.
And you had to please so-and-so and
make sure so-and-so, wasn't going
to snipe your back from behind you.
You have to watch yourself the
politics of, of jockeying for
position that has nothing to do
with government that can happen.
Any situation that happens in any
organization that can happen in a
family, especially extended family.
There's always so many politics
that go on that is when something
becomes a political spirit.
When people are jocking for position
and trying to manipulate and control
the situation and make the muddy,
the waters murky the situations that
they can get their desired outcome.
That is a political spirit.
The other spirit that is often.
And in Christian dumb is, is religious
spirit and religious spirit is normally
referred to, uh, when someone is very
hypocritical or they're taking the,
the law, they're taking the rules
that people are meant to follow.
And they're focusing on the
nitty gritty there they're honing
down on these minute details.
My new shares that they
then hold over other people.
Now we can see this again, not just in
religious organizations, but organizations
that often have a lot of religious
overtones, like critical race theory,
or like the SJWs or like many calls.
Where there is such a religion,
religiosity that there's the right
things to say the right things to do.
And if you step one way off, if you say
one thing, the wrong way, you immediately
get docs, you immediately get canceled.
They're digging up your past to make
sure that your past is squeaky clean.
While at the same time it
is saving with hypocrisy.
You'd see them with double standards.
And then if you ever try to leave
one of these groups that are just so.
Bound up and really religiosity.
And again, it doesn't have to
be one of a major religion.
This can be within groups.
There can be just such a stringent, hard
religiosity around whatever principles
you look at the green movement.
It's very, very religious.
If you look at socialism or communism,
it's very religious in its, its ideology.
And the way that that plays out.
Well, the president, uh, actually Jen Saki
weighed in for the president on just this
question on, when is president Biden's
politics or your politics or my politics.
When do, do our beliefs, when should
those enter in to that political realm?
Or should we just divorce it all to.
Uh, well, Joe Biden is
a strong man of faith.
Um, and as he noted just a couple
of days ago, it's personal.
Uh, he goes to church as you
know, uh, nearly every weekend.
He even went when we were
on our overseas trip.
Um, but it's personal to him.
He doesn't see it through a
political prism and we're not going
to comment otherwise in the inner
workings of the Catholic church.
So she goes on to say, it's personal
about five or 10 more times.
It's personal, it's
personal, it's personal.
It's and she's saying specifically his
faith, his personal, he's not going to
bring his faith into the way that he views
politics when that is absolutely not true.
And the reason that I say that maybe
he's not bringing his Catholic faith
in, but he's bringing his belief system
in the way that he believes that the
world is, should be placed together.
Just like.
We bring our belief system into every
single interaction that we have in
your interaction with your family,
your interaction in your workplace.
You're actually bringing the real
belief system that you truly, that
that's included in your yourself.
That's encoded in your belief system
in coded in the way that you live.
We bring that into every single
interaction, whether we like it or not.
And so here is Jen Saki St.
Well, his, his religious belief
system, well, that's personal.
He doesn't bring that into the
political realm because the people
in the west really like to do this,
it's not so much in the rest of
the world, the rest of the most.
They see things very much integrated
in Islam or Buddhism or Hinduism.
They see things very much integrated,
which is what do you mean?
There's no, there's no separation.
It's it's all one.
It's.
We're just it's it's just is we're
not, we're not going to divide it
up and put everything in the little
compartment, boxes all over the place.
It's just all the same.
It's all integrated in one holistic.
But in the west, we like to separate it.
I believe he can control it.
And others better for like, well, you
know, those are your beliefs over there.
Keep those in those corners.
But my beliefs, my political beliefs
that are secular, that secular worldview,
that's the real religion of the day.
That's the real religion of the west.
And we can push that religion, all
that we want and we can push the
morals or the lack of morality in.
In that worldview, all that we want
onto people as much as we want.
Why?
Because we say that it's not religious
when really it truly is religious.
So if you're asking yourself
to what extent should I engage?
To what extent should I keep
my personal beliefs personal?
Well, as long as you are.
Infringing enforcing and controlling
someone else with your personal
beliefs, which that would be a
religious spirit, which is exactly
what we're seeing with CRT.
Again, they would say, well, no, it's not.
This is, this is just, I don't know what
they'd say, but they're working to control
people through fear and manipulation.
And that is that, is it religious spirit?
So you don't want to step
into that to control others.
From your beliefs, but when it comes
to things, issues like abortion or
issues that are, or strike at the
very core of morality where it's
not like, well, you know, you might
like a couple of different things.
That's fine.
But when it comes to real core
issues, We should step up.
We should speak out, especially
when it involves someone else's
innocent, life being taken.
When it comes to abortion.
It is 8, 8, 8 procedure that has two
people involved, the mother and the child,
and one person walks out of that room
dismembered, or doesn't walk out of that.
One person walks out of the room and
the other person ends up deciding.
That is not something that is subjective.
That is not something that is being
imposed on other people that is
protecting innocent innocent lives.
And that is our responsibility to
uphold that moral code, whoever you
are, wherever you're from, that is
our responsibility to stand on truth.
The truth that a human being.
Is a human being scientifically
biologically at conception.
And those rights to life begins
at conception because if we, if we
lose that, then what is to say that
euthanasia becomes okay tomorrow or
the event decided three, three months
after birth, six months after birth.
Where, where does the limit?
And we want to follow
the science, then let's.
Follow the science.
Well, this show is brought to you by you.
This is a value for value podcast.
I want to thank you for listening.
I forgot.
Last episode.
I said something absolutely ridiculous
in this segment of the show.
If you haven't listened to it, go back.
I just totally stuck my foot in my mouth,
but I just want to thank you for being.
I truly appreciate it.
This is a value for value podcast.
Thousands of people listen to the show
every month to help them understand
the, the movings of the world and how
to see the world and own their future.
So you can help yourself and
others by giving value to this.
Back to the show and the
value that you receive it.
And you can do that by visiting Lucas,
scroll bot.com, where you can give
your hard, cold Fiat, or you can get
a podcast 2.0 certified app where
you can stream Bitcoin to me directly
to me as you listen, one set sets
and two sets, 1 cents and 2 cents
permanent, or as much as you like.
And what I like about that.
With, with podcasts, 2.0 apps like
that, like pod, friend or breeze is
that you can boost as you listen,
which really makes it feel much more
interactive and engaging for me.
Don't go away.
We will be right back with our
closing Weaver and loom segment.
Welcome back to Weaver Luma, part of the
show where we take ancient wisdom and
we weave it in with our every day lives
and today's wisdom comes from Play-Doh.
He writes the price.
Good men pay for indifference to public
affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
This is one of the
reasons that we have this.
This is probably a reason
that you listened to the show.
It's definitely a reason that I put
hours a week into this show is because
I do not want to be ruled by evil men.
And I know that the price they're
good men and women like you and I pay
for our indifference for not caring,
for not paying attention to public
affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
To what extent should we become consumed
with fear consumed with clickbait 24 hour
news cycle headlines, making sure we, we
read everything and listen to everything.
No pointless worthless would consume our
lives, but we should be paying attention
to the community around us and building
up the community around us and the culture
around us so that we can have a community.
And we can walk forward with, and
those, and that is that the public
affairs that Plato speaks up.
Sure.
He speaks of the political affairs as
well, but we can start by doing something
locally by building our community locally.
And one way that you can do that
is by sharing this podcast with
a friend, a coworker, a spouse,
someone that you like to debate with.
I like to share podcasts by texting
one individual or two individuals,
and then having a conversation
about it, rather than just sending
it out into the social media world.
Another way that you can share this is
just by having a conversation about some
of these topics with other people and
asking, Hey, what do you think about this?
What do you think about what's
happening around right now with
the Australian Outkast deal?
What do you think.
What's happening with China.
What do you think about what's
happening with this debate?
That's going on right now with the.
Bring up the subjects, talk about it with
people around you and that will strengthen
you and it will strengthen your community.
Will strengthen them to be able
to see the world more clearly,
because if we can see the world
clearly, then we can navigate it.
And if we can navigate our life
and our relationships, we will be.
To uncover our purpose and that
will enable us to own our future.
