the wrong soul into this body? Is God making mistakes? And of course, that's not a claim they want to make either.

Yeah, I just want to add to that because I think that One of the problems, one of the ways that this Gnosticism took hold is that you had a lot of Christians who don't understand their own faith and don't know how to talk about it. And so, for example... You'll hear, and this is a quote you'll see, I've seen circulating on social media for years and years.

And so, for example... You'll hear, and this is a quote you'll see, I've seen circulating on social media for years and years.

And I think that it's often falsely attributed to C.S. Lewis, sometimes G.K. Chesterton. And the quote is something like, I don't have a soul. I am a soul. I have a body. That's the quote that you see sometimes. And this is not something that C.S. Lewis would never say something that stupid. Because the, and this is, you hear this from Christians sometimes, but no, that's not correct.

It's not that you are a soul and you have a body. You are your body and your soul. There's a unity of the two. You can't separate the two. So we tend to think of it like my body is some kind of receptacle or a vehicle of you know, that my soul is just kind of driving around and pulling the levers inside my body. That's not, that's not it at all. What, what I am, what you see, my body is who I am.

That's not, that's not it at all. What, what I am, what you see, my body is who I am.

And my soul is in a, in a mysterious way, inextricably linked with my body. It's part of my, it's part of who I am. Uh, and this is one of the reasons why we can go to the trans activists and, uh, Now, they don't like to talk about souls, even though that is what they believe, as we've covered.

What they will say, though, and this is kind of their way of saying soul, they'll say, well, sometimes you have a man that has a woman's brain. And they'll start pointing to all these studies that allegedly show that some men have the brains of women. And this is why I don't really care about studies. I'm not a big fan of studies. Most of the time, I know we want to sound like we're smart.

And so somebody brings up a study. We want to throw another study back at them. They get in kind of a study food fight. Well, here's a study. I think, in my opinion, 95% of the time when someone brings up a study, they say, well, haven't you read this study? I say, no, I haven't read it. I know based on what you just said that it's totally bogus. I don't even need to read it.

I don't need to read it. Any study that claims to show that a man has a woman's brain is completely bogus. I don't care if this study was funded with $50 million. They took 70 years. They had 10,000 people. It doesn't matter because what's the definition of a man's brain? It is the brain that is inside the head of a man. That is, by definition, a man's brain.

I think it's worse than that. I think it was a deliberate choice, deliberate. It was a surrender. It was a deliberate, it was a waving the white flag. And so to answer your question and to bring it to kind of the point of this great event that I think, I mean, there are a lot of answers to the question of how it got this deep in our institutions.

But to me, the number one answer is that there is one institution that is supposed to be there as the vanguard against this kind of evil. And that institution refused to do its job, and that is the church. Now, I can, again, think back to 2016, 2017, 2020, 2021.
