Okay, so first of all, let's synthesize this.

Protestants, evangelicals, Catholics, Orthodox, for the vast historical sweep of history, right up until about 150 years ago, they were all supersessionists, right?

And then at around that time of Schofield and Darby and all the rest of it, there was a re-evaluation of concepts, which became under the bracket of dispensationalist.

These terms, these two terms, very...

fluently used in evangelicalism are hardly heard at all in Catholic debate as Catholics talk to one another.

But it is interesting to hear from you as an evangelical that this dispensationalist view was not held at the time of the Reformation for centuries, not until centuries afterwards.

taking over the land holding the land rebuilding the temple that all this is integral for those things to take place could you just give me i'm talking about a a lay of the land could you just give me an indication if you wouldn't mind guesstimating on this what proportion of evangelicals are dispensationalist and which proportion would be as a percent would be supersessionist

So first concentrate on the existential battles, the existential threats, and then is the opportunity to pat one another in a fraternal way on the back.

Look at our fellow combatants in the INSA.

You're going to hell.

I've always said, by the way, because I spent a lot of time in politics when I worked in the UK Parliament and in the European Parliament working with evangelicals who were very well informed over the elements of their belief.

And I had no better allies working on the pro-life front.

And I always said I work best with evangelicals

who will do that, who will look me in the eye and say, you're going to hell.

And the only thing I ask is the opportunity just to push back a little bit on all of my own heresies back and then we'll have that debate.

What I can't abide is what passes for ecumenism is where you just have the institutional leaders of the respective churches who frankly don't believe a word of their own religion anyway, getting together, having these big conflabs and they put out these ridiculous statements

where they say, look how much we hold in common.

Of course you hold a lot in common.

What you hold in common is that you don't believe the elements of your faith.

I think it's far more serious for people who actually do believe the elements of their faith to sit down and talk, to reach out, especially when there are these existential threats right across the West.
