Appreciate you on a Saturday.
Dave, Brett, I know you're chomping at the bit.
I'm going to turn the microphone back over to you, brother.
What do you got for me?
When the Enlightenment, you know, there was obviously had a big influence in the American Revolution.
But wasn't it kind of the lead sled dog in the French Revolution?
And that's why the French Revolution had core influence.
was to destroy Christianity, to destroy the underpinnings, not just of the church, but to drive Christianity out of the culture.
That's why they redid everything from the calendar.
to customs and mores, everything.
You see it manifested in the French Revolution, which, remember, folks, came right at the end of the American Revolution, basically, because the thing that triggered it was, guess what, debt and taxes.
The money they had put up for the American Revolution came back to haunt them, and they're really defeating England, or trying to defeat England and destroy its empire.
But reason underpins so much of that, and you saw it in all its brutality
in the streets of Paris in the French Revolution.
Did you not, sir?
Well, we're making progress.
Yeah.
It's now time to drop the hammer and get the wins.
Hang on, Brett.
You're with me.
