Thank you for holding to the good. The thing about the Access Hollywood tape that appalled me the most was NOT the "grabbing" part. It was the part where he proudly shared his attempt to force himself on the wife of another man -- "taking her furniture shopping" -- all planned out. He was as faithful to his oath of office as he was to his wedding vows. Skye has it exactly right about the people giving him a pass on all this.
Can't tell M/F from your handle, but I'm a 68yo guy who has seen numerous locker rooms. Sure, we joke and kid a bit...and it dies down after about age 13...but NEVER to that level trump did with B. Bush on the Hollywood tapes. It is despicable and demeaning to ALL women, everywhere. His claims to be a true disciple of Christ, holding up a Bible and spouting some 'two Corinthians' nonsense is the true definition of taking God's name in vain. Well, Israel wanted a king many years ago so they could keep up with the world's Joneses. God warned them, but they didn't have ears to hear. I'm afraid America is the same today. Hope not, but I fear it. Sorry, read your comment and needed to vent!
Trump didn’t say that he grabbed women. He also said he stopped when he found out she was married. Go back and watch instead taking in the liberal news spin. That’s the lazy way holy posters read the Bible as well.
Extremely gross and I would bet anything someone at some point in their lives has said something pretty gross (whether exaggerated or not). They're all scum. Then Biden voted for the crime bill in the 90's, it destroyed the lives of thousands of black people and the effects are still being felt. Politicians are scum of the earth, rich entitled people even more so... We're allowing media to distract us. Please don't.
Yeah, he was bragging about a failed adultery attempt that sounded kind of like E. Jean Carroll's encounter in Bergdorf's department store where Trump asked her to help with picking out a gift for another woman. weird, right? Don't forget that when the Access Hollywood tape came out WikiLeaks - a Putin-friendly site - immediately dumped the DNC chair's Russia-hacked emails onto the internet as a distraction. Trump's guy Roger Stone was convicted on 7 counts for his part in all this. Trump pardoned him, of course.

Why did UA-cam unsubscribe me from this channel? It’s good to know good Christians still exist there is always a remnant!!!! Surrounded by the Trump cult!
The self-proclaimed strong Christian has been married three times, and he's brazenly cheated on all three wives, one of whom was in the hospital delivering their son during one of his escapades. Perhaps he sees himself as a strong Christian because he had all of his weddings in a church?
@@Justanotherconsumer I'd argue that a vast majority of people who call themselves Christian, at least in the United States, would be that kind of "christian" but that's not new. My mom was born in 1935 and has said she just assumed everyone was a Christian until she was in her 20s or maybe even 30s
1. David: Fought Goliath. Trump: Fights salads. 2. David: A man. Trump: A child. 3. David: Repented, praised, and recognized God as the only one who can bring about justice. Trump: "I am your retribution!" As such, he's elevated himself about God himself and has thusly committed blasphemy. Case closed. 👈👀
And I know my family members who support Trump have never even known a true narcissist. But people who have known one are much harder to manipulate by this message.

WTF! Obama actually attended church, sang "Amazing Grace" live, acapella, and his speeches were peppered with scriptural references. Trump is the living antithesis of Christ Jesus in word and deed who's admitted he's never asked God for forgiveness = the true "Man of Lawlessness" who' if it wasn't for bad character, wouldn't have any character at all. Of these Spiritual fruit, which do you see in Trump: Love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Which of the 7 deadly sins, tho?
@@Travesty-qy4hv And, President Obama can present a dissertation level presentation on Old Testament scripture that could rival many credentialed Biblical scholars.
A couple Biblical truths to consider about Christian support for Trump. Proverbs 11:27 Whoever seeks good finds favor, but evil comes to one who searches for it. Matthew 24:28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather. The cancer of unrighteousness has metastasized and spread through our culture. The media has a role to play, and so do the pastors. Let us become mature, having discernment exercised through practice to know righteousness and promote it. God is righteous.
They post on Apple and other podcast platforms now! Heck UA-cam unsubscribed me to them… I think they are a important voice for the church right now to prevent a great falling away! By the Trump cult!
@simonssays78 they may be a great voice, but they've limited their reach now. Instead of them finding you, as how I did through UA-cam suggestion, we now have to know of and search for them.
There has never been a president elected to be president of the United States, that hasn't neen in, The Royal Family line, says prof Walter Veith, on the, WHATS UP PROF on his U-Tube channel--! What say you?
I’m hearing a lot of kickback against Donald Trump, and perhaps justified. I haven’t heard you say anything about the current administration. I assume you don’t support Joe Biden if you are indeed a Christian website website. But if you do support him, can you please explain that to me?
The people of Nevada had it right when they held their recent primary. When they had the choice between Nikki Haley and None of the Above, they chose None of The Above.
There is a primary ongoing right now. And if republicans were serious about wanting another choice, they’ve had plenty not named Trump over the past year. Unfortunately, they love Trump. No other way to explain what’s going on. This false reasoning about Biden is no excuse.
I didn't vote. I have that right. Given the choice between two evils, I chose neither. Does that mean I no longer have any say in what goes on in politics? Of course not. That's a myth.
Okay, put it this way, the only real trauma we all ever experience is, ultimately, the cognitive dissonance of facing our own narcissim. Everything else is reality. Facing our own selfish, entitled, rejection of reality, and therefore an ignorance of other's rights, and seeing the lying, weak-minded, banal evil of our own behavior, constitutes the ultimate trauma of all life, consciousness, and society. For me, it hurts to be familiar with that, because I feel so alone in seeing it so much, all the time, everywhere. And it's impossible to explain in the moment as it happens, almost by definition. Narcissism is virtually synonymous with subconscious, willful ignorance. And there's only so far you can walk away from all the people demonstrating this openly -- a distance which is getting closer all the time. People are going to need to face their own narcissim, or society will break, and soon at the rate we're holding ourselves accountable. Trump is a symptom, a man who uses our denials against us, because we, our culture, has the real problem, the root issue. Science and tech and philosophy have progressed faster than we have kept up with emotionally, responsibly. People are refusing to learn, because we haven't been able to manage resolving the existential pain, unfairness, and cognitive dissonance of contemporary growth. And there's so much money to be made. Some people have been left behind, badly, and our society doesn't seem to even notice until full dysfunction happens. As part of the way we handle trauma, narcissism is an inherent part of our cognitive structure and can never be eradicated entirely. But it can be minimized. People can take responsibility for and manage the biases of their own perceptual framing. Those who can't face it will be deemed socially unacceptable soon. Or our society will likely collapse and transform into something unrecognizable. Or maybe destroy us all.
I know that isn't typical Christian framing, but my faith doesn't allow me to ignore rational framing either. And I'm personally suspicious of people who crusade and proselytize, because I want the extended experience of friends who believe differently than myself. The structure of my denomination puts the rules of society and the good of the community before my faith. It's my job to make my faith work internally, so that the God within connects to the God without. And that's all I'm really speaking to.
@@michaelward7051 Ultimately it's a perceptual thing, kind of relative between any two people. The real narcissist, the ones with a personality disorder, are pathological and it's virtually impossible to break through and change their perspective, ever. But narcissism is also how all of us process trauma. The first component of trauma is some event which overloads our ability to accept reality, and we deny reality instead, deny the trauma, lie to ourselves about it to avoid facing it squarely to protect our sanity. It's how we're born, it's just part of our cognition. So, think about that. We lie to ourselves. How do we do that? How is it even possible to fool yourself? Well, it's possible because our subconscious cuts off access to the dissonance, cuts us off from focussing on our own denials, makes it difficult to really see our own behavior, until we accumulate the psychological resources to work through the trauma. Meanwhile that denial blinds us to some of the truth, and that willful blindness is ignorance, ignore-ance. That forms narcissism, the choice to exclude inconvenient details or people. That traumatized person won't be a complete narcissist, but their narcissistic behavior will still get in the way of some relationships and will look to those people like the trauma sufferer is just denying them and their voice, and may appear as a completely manipulative narcissist. It will prevent the traumatized from ever really opening up to anyone, without help. In addition, many of us get used to our blindspots and our traumas, and forget there is anything to work on. It's a much more difficult process for adults than children, because children can reorganize their thinking more easily. And some traumas become so ingrained, may be so complicated and latched into our whole lives that working through the issue and coming to terms with it just isn't a practical solution. And some people aren't really bright enough to do the work. And some people can see the problem but find some advantage so won't deal with it. And the narcissism festers. Morality and healthy sanity are complicated to work out. Narcissism and hedonism are fun and easy, but there is a cost, and we're wired not to care. We have to learn better to be functioning members of society. Nobody is really teaching this today and the narcissistic behaviors are growing.
@@michaelward7051 Yeah, there are lots of theories of mind. Mostly though, having a perspective means making choices as to how to frame the world, and that choice means putting some aspects ahead of others. Having a point of view means creating conflict. It's forever the central issue with life. Thanks for letting me share.
it hurts me too. alot. I thought it might be because the older I get the less I can fool myself about my own tendency to make every story about me or push to the rear any uncomfortable truths about my life, my faith, and the stories I have told myself, and the people I have loved so inadequately. of course the trump effect has made it nearly impossible to ignore in those around me as well. grateful for your own story. a real gift 🙌 thanks for sharing
Deception is central to corporate culture and politics. These are not institutions based on truth so much as on the results. I spent decades living in this world. People who did the right thing were often written up, fired, laid off, and had their careers destroyed. I realised that I couldn't be that person any longer, so I retired from both and pursued ministry. The US media, political parties, and corporate America reward those who are willing to do anything to win and then feign shock and surprise when people get caught in it.
It sure seems to me that the former president is one of the best arguments for the evidence of a devil working in our midst. Am awful lot of Christians are willingly being led stray by this guy.
@@JustanotherconsumerWashington, D.C., has a lot of people who say, "Lord, Lord." That includes both sides. Do you honestly believe Biden or Harris are any better? If you do, I've got a bridge to sell you.
It's easy to find propaganda in the echo chamber... but how easy is it to find the Truth? and how easy is it to find propaganda that is the truth? Probably not hard, in the echo chamber.

I'm new to the channel; so I don't know anyone's name. I love how at 0:30 the female panel member visibly annoyed and had to suppress all of her emotions in response to what was clearly satire. Satire and parody stop being funny when they're actually a literal replication of the side you are lampooning. ....Sad! (to be read in Donald Trump's voice while making hand and lip gestures)
What's that got to do with this? Besides, 45 said he was going to be honest, that he was better than Crooked Hillary and Corrupt Obama and whatever silly nicknames he comes up with. But he's not better. He can't drain the swamp because he IS the swamp. His worshipers need to stop saying "He's the only one who tells truth." He doesn't.
Joe "the plumber" was an obvious set up by the republicans to trick ordinary middle class Americans into voting for the party of billionaires and greed
Joe was just a citizen who was destroyed by the same party and same methods they try to use on Trump so yes I care about him deeply. Do you care about George Floyd?
Politics are bad, because once we point out one side, we would be remiss to not discuss the other side. It's difficult to get unbiased commentary. Someone can always find something favorable about most candidates. I'm even lost today to understand what we should expect of any candidate.
Great discussion! The devil is the father of lies, and he who makes habitual lying a regular way of life is the son of his father, the devil. We could also discuss his philandering and bragging about sexual assault (which is a crime). I don't know if you've covered this elsewhere, but Trump did go to "church" growing up. His Presbyterian pastor was the famous Norman Vincent Peale who wrote "The Power of Positive Thinking". Young Trump listened to Peale preach this every Sunday for years, and claims Peale as his pastor. Some believe that the prosperity gospel arose out of this heresy. I can tell you from experience that this philosophy ruins lives and families, because my former father-in-law was into it. Basically, if you want something badly enough, you keep after it until you get it, by any means necessary. That is considered "staying positive". You keep lying to yourself and others until it becomes true. My father-in-law was disabled in a wheelchair because of a bad spinal surgery. He spent every dime his family had traveling to every top medical facility in the country (Mayo, Johns Hopkins, etc.) trying to find some magic pill that would get him out that wheelchair. He didn't even really ask God for healing to my knowledge. He hated physical therapy, which might have given him at least some function. He just kept believing the lie that he was going to get up and walk. That never happened, of course. He died and left his wife destitute. Trump will do this to our country. All I remember about his first term was the unrest and chaos he caused. In his mind, he isn't lying...he's targeting a goal, and that's "positive".
Is trumps family ruined? Let’s compare trumps to bidens or maybe yours. All of trumps kids seem successful and articulate. They’re not idiot crack heads like bidens. They don’t write weird things about being forced to shower with daddy in their diary
Your new UA-cam format is hurting your witness. People don't know that this is part of a full podcast, and think you're just attacking Trump without explaining why. If you're going to do this, you need to reformat how you do things. You need to actually design for videos of this length. You have lot of videos that do this. If you want to reach more people with a traditional UA-cam format, then you need to work with them in mind. You got a lot of Trump supporters here, and you need to actually address them.
There is a difference between lying and making verbal errors. If we picked people out for their errors with the english language, no one would have a job. Especially those mumblers in congress and senate. Tell me why they weren't screened before giving positions, at least in their capabilities within the english language. We literally have law makers who can't write proper english, and laws written in improper english and grammar.
There are errors of construction and errors of fact. Errors of construction (e.g. grammar) are annoying and sloppy but ultimately don’t matter that much - if you understood what they meant, it’s kind of a whatever. Errors of fact (e.g. horse stuff on human illness) are more damaging, but ultimately can be corrected - we all make mistakes. The guy’s problem is not errors, it’s lies. It’s things he knows aren’t true but he says them anyway because it benefits him to make other people believe them and to make errors of fact.
Politifact is what they’re referring to, and it’s easily accessible. Where to even start with Trump’s lies? The election is the obvious one, and it’s disturbing how many people believe it was “stolen” based on… no evidence at all, or evidence that really doesn’t say what people claim it says (e.g. cell phone movement data).
Please let us not get into "Trump lies". Politicians lie - get a counter out for literally every major politician including Bush, Biden, et'all: it's astronomical...
@@StevenDavisPhoto I do not believe this discussion is productive. So tired of right wing defending him and left wing lambasting him - ridiculous. He is absolutely comparable to every other politician, just not to the same reporting. He's a pariah, a thing to be squashed. And he's playing into their hands as a tool and a fear tactic to get people riled up. There's also a big difference between lying and exaggerating. Trump overstates everything. Certainly not defending this, but please realize the difference. Get a lie counter out for Biden too, it's through the roof - also mostly exaggerating, but also outright lies (where he graduated, where he lived most of his life, where he was during certain events , etc). Again, apply this to any politician - it's disgusting. I truly dislike them all.
@@itsROMPERS... I'm not entirely certain where you're getting your information from. He's right on a lot of things, just like Biden, Bush, Obama, et'all are right about a lot of things...
Hey bob the tomato have you done the research on the birther? And who started it? You are talking about truth and i figured you would want to correct your "misinformation!" Get Curly and Larry to help out. I'm waiting for your correction.
Great president, no matter the hysteria of the left-wing "fact checkers". I say that as someone who doesn't particularly care for him as a person. As an aside, can we get Biden to stop saying Beau died in Iraq? As a war vet I find this particularly egregious. Be nice if we could get Hilary to quit offing people she doesn't like, as well.
Great at what, exactly? Screwing the pooch badly during a major crisis? Trump was a failure as President. Didn’t even get his wall built. The Beau thing is kinda… eh, yeah, he’s wrong about that - at best a service related injury but definitely didn’t die there. As far as the “Clinton having people killed” do you have anything approaching evidence supporting that claim? You don’t. It’s as credible as the moon landing being faked. It’s theoretically possible, sure, but going to take more than “I read it somewhere online.”
I'm genuinely curious as to how much of this you listened to or if this just popped up on your feed because the algorithm likes conflict and so you just commented without watching. Can you Steel Man their points?
@@writingref The entire thing. I can, and that's why I wrote "no matter. " It's also why I paren'd the word fact checkers, since even they've been fact checked as false, mostly false and even pants on fire themselves. Did you see the not so late Snopes retraction? I don't want to have a sit down tea with Pres Trump, but the state of the nation WAS in passable good order when he left.- at least a good deal better than now.
@@chocolatefrenzieya I see. And who was in charge of congress? What were the courts able to stop Biden from doing and did Biden press the issue? You can consider these questions rhetorical if you want, but your comment treats the office of the President like a King. The reason the Christians on this channel and others like me are terrified is because that man aims to take that sort of attitude and our discourse, and make himself king. There is a reason you already don't have any other option for the GOP nom - and its because he has already laid the groundwork for it. Its not hyperbole - its real. There is no "lesser evil" this time. Only the republic verse its slow and subtle removal.
Not good enough to blame the media, although it is true. The problem is also evident in pastors who fail to be outraged and fail to bring standards of integrity to their parishioners. In my view, too many "Christians" are looking for excuses to swallow Trump's bigotry.
And that's a problem, because he has shown none of fruits of the spirit, and is still incredibly selfish and corrupt. If your church is saying he's of God, then they don't worship the God of the Bible.
If Trump is such a liar then why is Trump able to get bank loans that are all paid or current? Why do his ex wives have nothing but wonderful things to say about him?
His bank loans are not all paid and current. He ducked out on tens of millions of loans for his gambling halls in Atlantic City and the Russian crooks who stood in for him have evaded payments since 1999. As for the 1,000 lies listed by these people, you want to look at them one by one: you'll find that he is, in fact, a habitual and continual liar.
This should be called the Holier than now post! You people do not understand the war we are in! Rahab the Harlot lied and ended up honored in Hebrews 11. Ponder that!
I no longer fight these battles on Facebook. All it takes is one person to report you for saying something they do not like, and you are put in Facebook jail.
From a scriptural point of view, who are we to expect as a leader who lies? You are talking around the issue, without pointing out the obvious. I get that you do not want to offend. Too bad.
Yes, that's trump's speciality and has been for decades. The only reason he ran for president as a Republican even though he's been supporting Democrats since the 1980s (even both of the Clintons) is he knew that the people who tend to vote Republican are poorly informed and easily manipulated
If you actually believe even a little bit or even most of what you're saying, wow, you think you know what you're talking about but you have no clue. You just go along with believing everything you're told to believe. And a whole lot of what you said was a bunch of BS lies. Things you made up.
@jsharp3165. Good grief! Really? Both sides lie like it’s going out of style. They’re politicians for goodness’ sake! Constituents lap it up like cats at a bowl of cream. And that includes YOU!! One could make a video just like this for almost any other politician. It’s like informing us the sky is blue.
Persuasion level = ZERO. Does nothing to engage anyone other than the already convinced. Why is the 1st impulse to declare the "other" as a stupid idiot?
It’s difficult to engage with Trump’s supporters because they live in a separate reality and there are so few mutually agreed on points that it’s hard to start a conversation. Faith should provide that bridge, all those that call Christ Lord should have some bare minimum common ground, but even that proves challenging. The opening of Romans is a useful shibboleth, with some reading it as an invitation to eagerly condemn sinners and others as a cautionary parable against eager condemnation of sinners.
I appreciate the comment , @@Justanotherconsumer and that's an interesting point about Romans. And while I'd lean toward the "there's now no condemnation" camp... I know and engage with folks in both camps. You can learn how to talk effectively and bring a little unity among the camps. And that's my point. I'd say I'm politically homeless. And yes, I agree there are two realities happening. And yes, it's hard. Yet, here's this podcast of Christian commenters not even trying to give any regard or dignity to the other camp. They've given up and just add to the divide. With this I'm done: If this podcast never asks "wait, are 40-50% of these "others" really THAT stupid, really THAT blinded & hypnotized, I mean it's soo frickin' plain as day to me but... dang, there's a lot of really super smart folks, Christian and non-Christian who are reading things as if in a separate reality from how I see things... er, waitaminute... could I be miss-characterizing sumpthin' here... could I be missing sumpthin' here? ...Maybe it's me or maybe its not me... but I'd like to try dropping my dukes and seek to understand ...ya know, strong-man their positions. And not be so flippant or dismissive. Maybe I'll try that tact." IF they aren't willing to try that, then what's the point in listening to them any more? It's a very weary broken record.
@@thefattedcalf at some point you have to take a stand. Dr. King’s letter from jail has some unkind words for those who just want everyone to get along and maintain the status quo when others are suffering. Just because there are people on both sides doesn’t mean both sides have equal merit. Trump and the politicized Christianity of the right are so obviously taking the name in vain that at some point we cannot be lukewarm for Christ. Could they be nicer about it? Sure. They could also be far nastier about it. How do you speak the truth in love to someone who believes that God has chosen such an obviously flawed person that is completely unrepentant about their flaws?

How else can you possibly explain those people who see only the other world? You can't help but call them either stupid or blinded cult followers... or pure evil!! Dismiss them as "less than" or simply call them deplorable animals. Design is destiny. Your system/approach destines you to separate, divide and look down.

Here's an experiment - try watching the Michael Jackson documentary where the fact checkers verify that he was completely guilty. After 2 hours absorbing it , you'll be convinced the case is settled. Then later the next week, watch the other documentary about him where the facts show undeniably that he's innocent, ...holy post, er, I mean, smokes!

The self-proclaimed strong Christian has been married three times, and he's brazenly cheated on all three wives, one of whom was in the hospital delivering their son during one of his escapades. Perhaps he sees himself as a strong Christian because he had all of his weddings in a church?
“Christian” in this context means membership in a cultural group, it has nothing to do with Jesus beyond the name.
@@Justanotherconsumer I'd argue that a vast majority of people who call themselves Christian, at least in the United States, would be that kind of "christian" but that's not new.

Interestingly, Obama can’t give that same response of “People have always known that he’s a strong Christian.” 😏
WTF! Obama actually attended church, sang "Amazing Grace" live, acapella, and his speeches were peppered with scriptural references. Trump is the living antithesis of Christ Jesus in word and deed who's admitted he's never asked God for forgiveness = the true "Man of Lawlessness" who' if it wasn't for bad character, wouldn't have any character at all. Of these Spiritual fruit, which do you see in Trump: Love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Which of the 7 deadly sins, tho?

Proverbs 11:27 Whoever seeks good finds favor, but evil comes to one who searches for it.
Matthew 24:28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.
The cancer of unrighteousness has metastasized and spread through our culture. The media has a role to play, and so do the pastors. Let us become mature, having discernment exercised through practice to know righteousness and promote it. God is righteous.

I’m hearing a lot of kickback against Donald Trump, and perhaps justified. I haven’t heard you say anything about the current administration. I assume you don’t support Joe Biden if you are indeed a Christian website website. But if you do support him, can you please explain that to me?
They support Biden because the talking heads on TV tell them to.
But now I'm really curious about what he actually said that was truthful. I expect his percentage of lies to be far higher than that.
"My name is Donald Trump." Put that one on the True pile.

The same way you overlook Biden and his incompetence by not protecting the American people.
Kaitlyn's background is giving "studio Ghibli in real life" vibes.
PolitiFacts? Enough said.
So Trump is a horrible human, yes. So does that mean we vote for Biden? Or don’t vote at all?
The people of Nevada had it right when they held their recent primary. When they had the choice between Nikki Haley and None of the Above, they chose None of The Above.
There is a primary ongoing right now. And if republicans were serious about wanting another choice, they’ve had plenty not named Trump over the past year. Unfortunately, they love Trump. No other way to explain what’s going on. This false reasoning about Biden is no excuse.
RFK jr. would make an excellent president.
I didn't vote. I have that right. Given the choice between two evils, I chose neither. Does that mean I no longer have any say in what goes on in politics? Of course not. That's a myth.
Okay, put it this way, the only real trauma we all ever experience is, ultimately, the cognitive dissonance of facing our own narcissim. Everything else is reality. Facing our own selfish, entitled, rejection of reality, and therefore an ignorance of other's rights, and seeing the lying, weak-minded, banal evil of our own behavior, constitutes the ultimate trauma of all life, consciousness, and society.
For me, it hurts to be familiar with that, because I feel so alone in seeing it so much, all the time, everywhere. And it's impossible to explain in the moment as it happens, almost by definition. Narcissism is virtually synonymous with subconscious, willful ignorance. And there's only so far you can walk away from all the people demonstrating this openly -- a distance which is getting closer all the time. People are going to need to face their own narcissim, or society will break, and soon at the rate we're holding ourselves accountable.
Trump is a symptom, a man who uses our denials against us, because we, our culture, has the real problem, the root issue. Science and tech and philosophy have progressed faster than we have kept up with emotionally, responsibly. People are refusing to learn, because we haven't been able to manage resolving the existential pain, unfairness, and cognitive dissonance of contemporary growth. And there's so much money to be made. Some people have been left behind, badly, and our society doesn't seem to even notice until full dysfunction happens.
As part of the way we handle trauma, narcissism is an inherent part of our cognitive structure and can never be eradicated entirely. But it can be minimized. People can take responsibility for and manage the biases of their own perceptual framing. Those who can't face it will be deemed socially unacceptable soon. Or our society will likely collapse and transform into something unrecognizable.
Or maybe destroy us all.
I know that isn't typical Christian framing, but my faith doesn't allow me to ignore rational framing either. And I'm personally suspicious of people who crusade and proselytize, because I want the extended experience of friends who believe differently than myself. The structure of my denomination puts the rules of society and the good of the community before my faith. It's my job to make my faith work internally, so that the God within connects to the God without. And that's all I'm really speaking to.
@@michaelward7051 Ultimately it's a perceptual thing, kind of relative between any two people. The real narcissist, the ones with a personality disorder, are pathological and it's virtually impossible to break through and change their perspective, ever. But narcissism is also how all of us process trauma. The first component of trauma is some event which overloads our ability to accept reality, and we deny reality instead, deny the trauma, lie to ourselves about it to avoid facing it squarely to protect our sanity. It's how we're born, it's just part of our cognition.
So, think about that. We lie to ourselves. How do we do that? How is it even possible to fool yourself? Well, it's possible because our subconscious cuts off access to the dissonance, cuts us off from focussing on our own denials, makes it difficult to really see our own behavior, until we accumulate the psychological resources to work through the trauma. Meanwhile that denial blinds us to some of the truth, and that willful blindness is ignorance, ignore-ance. That forms narcissism, the choice to exclude inconvenient details or people. That traumatized person won't be a complete narcissist, but their narcissistic behavior will still get in the way of some relationships and will look to those people like the trauma sufferer is just denying them and their voice, and may appear as a completely manipulative narcissist. It will prevent the traumatized from ever really opening up to anyone, without help.
In addition, many of us get used to our blindspots and our traumas, and forget there is anything to work on. It's a much more difficult process for adults than children, because children can reorganize their thinking more easily. And some traumas become so ingrained, may be so complicated and latched into our whole lives that working through the issue and coming to terms with it just isn't a practical solution. And some people aren't really bright enough to do the work. And some people can see the problem but find some advantage so won't deal with it. And the narcissism festers. Morality and healthy sanity are complicated to work out. Narcissism and hedonism are fun and easy, but there is a cost, and we're wired not to care. We have to learn better to be functioning members of society. Nobody is really teaching this today and the narcissistic behaviors are growing.
@@michaelward7051 Yeah, there are lots of theories of mind. Mostly though, having a perspective means making choices as to how to frame the world, and that choice means putting some aspects ahead of others. Having a point of view means creating conflict. It's forever the central issue with life. Thanks for letting me share.
it hurts me too. alot.
I thought it might be because the older I get the less I can fool myself about my own tendency to make every story about me or push to the rear any uncomfortable truths about my life, my faith, and the stories I have told myself, and the people I have loved so inadequately. of course the trump effect has made it nearly impossible to ignore in those around me as well. grateful for your own story. a real gift 🙌

Deception is central to corporate culture and politics. These are not institutions based on truth so much as on the results. I spent decades living in this world. People who did the right thing were often written up, fired, laid off, and had their careers destroyed. I realised that I couldn't be that person any longer, so I retired from both and pursued ministry. The US media, political parties, and corporate America reward those who are willing to do anything to win and then feign shock and surprise when people get caught in it.

Politics are bad, because once we point out one side, we would be remiss to not discuss the other side. It's difficult to get unbiased commentary. Someone can always find something favorable about most candidates. I'm even lost today to understand what we should expect of any candidate.
Neither side points out its own, which is what we see on this channel.
Great discussion! The devil is the father of lies, and he who makes habitual lying a regular way of life is the son of his father, the devil. We could also discuss his philandering and bragging about sexual assault (which is a crime). I don't know if you've covered this elsewhere, but Trump did go to "church" growing up. His Presbyterian pastor was the famous Norman Vincent Peale who wrote "The Power of Positive Thinking". Young Trump listened to Peale preach this every Sunday for years, and claims Peale as his pastor. Some believe that the prosperity gospel arose out of this heresy. I can tell you from experience that this philosophy ruins lives and families, because my former father-in-law was into it. Basically, if you want something badly enough, you keep after it until you get it, by any means necessary. That is considered "staying positive". You keep lying to yourself and others until it becomes true. My father-in-law was disabled in a wheelchair because of a bad spinal surgery. He spent every dime his family had traveling to every top medical facility in the country (Mayo, Johns Hopkins, etc.) trying to find some magic pill that would get him out that wheelchair. He didn't even really ask God for healing to my knowledge. He hated physical therapy, which might have given him at least some function. He just kept believing the lie that he was going to get up and walk. That never happened, of course. He died and left his wife destitute. Trump will do this to our country. All I remember about his first term was the unrest and chaos he caused. In his mind, he isn't lying...he's targeting a goal, and that's "positive".
Is trumps family ruined? Let’s compare trumps to bidens or maybe yours.
All of trumps kids seem successful and articulate. They’re not idiot crack heads like bidens. They don’t write weird things about being forced to shower with daddy in their diary

There is a difference between lying and making verbal errors.
If we picked people out for their errors with the english language, no one would have a job.
Especially those mumblers in congress and senate.
Tell me why they weren't screened before giving positions, at least in their capabilities within the english language.
We literally have law makers who can't write proper english, and laws written in improper english and grammar.
There are errors of construction and errors of fact.
Errors of construction (e.g. grammar) are annoying and sloppy but ultimately don’t matter that much - if you understood what they meant, it’s kind of a whatever.
Errors of fact (e.g. horse stuff on human illness) are more damaging, but ultimately can be corrected - we all make mistakes.
The guy’s problem is not errors, it’s lies. It’s things he knows aren’t true but he says them anyway because it benefits him to make other people believe them and to make errors of fact.

There's also a big difference between lying and exaggerating. Trump overstates everything.
Certainly not defending this, but please realize the difference.
Get a lie counter out for Biden too, it's through the roof - also mostly exaggerating, but also outright lies (where he graduated, where he lived most of his life, where he was during certain events , etc).

@@chocolatefrenzieya I see. And who was in charge of congress? What were the courts able to stop Biden from doing and did Biden press the issue?
You can consider these questions rhetorical if you want, but your comment treats the office of the President like a King.
The reason the Christians on this channel and others like me are terrified is because that man aims to take that sort of attitude and our discourse, and make himself king. There is a reason you already don't have any other option for the GOP nom - and its because he has already laid the groundwork for it. Its not hyperbole - its real.
There is no "lesser evil" this time. Only the republic verse its slow and subtle removal.
Not good enough to blame the media, although it is true.
The problem is also evident in pastors who fail to be outraged and fail to bring standards of integrity to their parishioners.
In my view, too many "Christians" are looking for excuses to swallow Trump's bigotry.
You guys actually trust the fact checkers??? LMFAO!
Trump 2024, Trump is a born again Christian my church loves Trump and believes God is gonna use him to make America a Christian nation again,ame.

Dismiss them as "less than" or simply call them deplorable animals.
Design is destiny. Your system/approach destines you to separate, divide and look down.
And so also, anything I say, predictably, will be discarded bc you've told me your mind is made up.
Listen, I never voted for Trump, ok? I hated him and all things Fox news. I was frustrated to no end by both the brainwashing and the brainwashed!! I couldn't stand to sit in my mom's house w/ her husband. For years, I gobbled up and regurgitated the talking points of the Skye Jethani's of the world.
It took me over 2 and a half years kicking and screaming, to slowly expand my view... and click into a broader, more gracious, way of seeing.
Finally: verifiable by whom? Fact-checkers? Please. Here's an experiment - try watching the Michael Jackson documentary where the fact checkers verify that he was completely guilty. After 2 hours absorbing it , you'll be convinced the case is settled. Then later the next week, watch the other documentary about him where the facts show undeniably that he's innocent, ...holy post, er, I mean, smokes! You will be convinced that you had it all wrong before and now you are enlightened.
Seriously, try this experiment. And then ask , what are the implications of such a phenomenon?
