And, you know, all of my followers and all of my fans and all the young men over the world of all different religions do know what my religious beliefs are.

And if they're encouraged to look into the Orthodox Church because of the things I say, then good.

But I don't have a podcast where I sit and preach and tell people that they must be Christian because X, Y, and Z. Yeah, I think it comes down to qualification.

I think it comes down to, I guess, knowing your place in the world.

And some people live as an example, whether it be a good example or a bad example.

And some people live to actually actively preach the gospel and convert people to the belief in Jesus, people like you.

So I don't try to police people because I don't think it's congruent to my message and my mission.

Well, I do this all the time for everybody I care about and everybody in my life.

But I don't necessarily, I try to correct bad behaviors even from

the fans of mine that listen to me,

I have preached since the first day I was ever on the internet, probably 15, 14 years ago, a very powerful anti-drug message.

I've always preached things like this.

And if there's a friend of mine who's in a bad place or doing something that I don't think is beneficial for his life, I will correct him.

And I do that just out of love for my friends.

I don't necessarily do it from a place of, this makes you a bad Christian.

Because my group of friends is very diverse.

My group of friends, I mean, I've got,

two or three Christians who were always with me all the time, my film crew, my camera crew.

But besides that, you know, everyone comes from a different place and everyone believes in different things.

But I think it is your duty, irregardless of religion, to try to lift your brothers up and try to point them in the right direction when they're living in a way that's destructive to themselves.
