      I'm late to the party. That video was great! (Haven't watched this current one yet) I just had no idea Christians don't know we've ALWAYS been in a war. Have they never read Genesis? I'm no genius. I'm no spiritual powerhouse. But I've always known this and FELT it, from the day I got saved 30+ years ago. I really do despair sometimes when I see fellow Christians so clueless.

    33:23 this is so true. I moved from Leftist city/state to a red town in red state where every 4th building is a Christian church. In my new town people have no idea how bad it is outside our community. They see stuff online but it doesn't directly effect them so they're almost passive, in an innocent way.

      I also live in a small town like that. I'm highly aware of how corrupt everything is even in my seemingly red state. It is depressing sometimes but my hope is in Christ and I pray at some point I can find a place where I can make a difference outside of my circle of influence. As of right now I'm raising my kids to love Christ above all and trying my best to love and respect my husband as he goes out into business world and not step on any landmines set for him out their by a corrupt system.

    We enjoyed this very much - and although people will be people it is clear that the Canadian political system and Church have very different problems to address. The greatest of those problems is the overwhelming confidence the people have here in the way Government has control over education, healthcare and so many things that actually belong to the family.

    29:21 My first thought during this part of the conversation was the old horror movie trope "the call is coming from INSIDE the house". I think people are waking up to the realization that decades of horrible ideologies and destructive policies are actually a big threat to our country and to Christianity. People are finally starting to care about righting the ship and that's why "fiscal conservatism" is on life support (forgive all the mixed metaphors). Not all serious threats are from outside. In fact, I'd argue that the threats from the outside are to the body of our nation and the threats from the inside are to the soul of our nation. That was actually a rare moment of lucidity from Biden.

    This increased politicization is due to the increased secularization of society. As the secular supplants Christianity, society's ontological lens adopts the political as a substitute. In other words, as the Christian worldview is abandoned for a secular one, the government becomes the ultimate authority, and all categories align with the government hierarchy; inherently, nearly everything is politicized because the political is how everything relates to the government.

    20:57- I think another community frankly with regular meetings and family discipleship is Islam or Judaism, and frankly Christians who are culturally Catholics. I don’t know enough about Hindu sects- but I suspect that a lot of the next two decades will be the Stranger Things of Red State religious cultism and substitute masculinity societies, along with conservative pagans, all fighting against robust Christian patriarchal and Protestant churches, with strange unexpected breakthroughs by the Spirit to reconstitute and rework religious conservative instincts and baptize imaginations- strange CS Lewis’s just emerging out of various traditions. Like Jordan Peterson out of academia, or the Dominion book guy- I think the Spirit may allow for strong strange scattered patriarchies that suddenly crack and repent, amidst a lot of transhumanist apathy and increasing poverty in blue states and manipulation off cultural capital still running a tax base in red states .
    hopefully we’ll get a new country out of it, and God’ll give us the captains we need to rework the kind of government we want.

      @@ReformedSooner24 Politics is primarily about power. So when Christian Nationalists work this hard to convince their followers that everything is political they are basically admitting that they only care about power. They hate the results of a pluralistic society so much that they crave a way to overthrow democracy to stop it. They are willing to fuel outrage and conspiracy thinking in hopes that they can convince enough people to join their losing battle. Yet, CN sympathizers only make up maybe 20-25% of the nation at most. Meanwhile you guys keep voting against your own interests(unless you’re somehow a billionaire) just to “own the libs.” Wake up my brother.

      If you find it insufferable, why are you watching it? I haven't actually seen many rustled-up rubes in Canon's comment sections, if any, which may be due to limited experience and the fact that it's a small channel. Angry commentators are pretty ubiquitous on the net, and anger seems pretty ubiquitous in America's (and the West's) anger-prone culture. If these guys are actually trying to provoke anger for the sake of gaining a hearing, then they're going about it pretty incompetently. There are many people out there who provide a much template than an hour of sanguine discussion. People just get their tone across wrongly sometimes, I wish I knew when I was doing it, so it's better to give people the benefit of the doubt anyhow, but there's no doubt here.
      But I do see one rustled-up person here, someone making a baseless and bad faith accusation against strangers, no less - you. You and I are as prone to cultivating anger as anyone else is. Also, terms demeaning people based on socio-geographic status are a pretty low move.
