in that the ability to stripping the actual foundations of where those things came from. So you can say, okay, humans have value, and we should take care of people who are weaker than. But where does that come from?

Because if all you are is matter in motion, if you're just the product of time plus matter plus chance, then survival of the fittest actually should mandate that, no, not all people have intrinsic value. In fact, some people have extrinsic value in that what they can contribute to society is actually how we should ascribe their worth.

And so say if they're – and we're seeing this in Canada with maid medical assistance in dying – if they're elderly and they can no longer contribute, if they're sick, then – the best option for them is actually to be eliminated.

Because although we're going to dress this up in language like care and dignity, ultimately what it's saying is that this person no longer has enough to contribute to society, so we should remove them from society. And so I think our world wants to hold two things at the exact same time, which are fundamentally contradictory, in that it wants to say values, freedom,

You know, unity, purpose, kindness, progress, equality. These are things that built the West. But we also want to say, well, no, all that God stuff, we want to get rid of that. And once you start to do that, you run into issues with foundation. Where are you getting your actual reasoning to say?

So Glenn Scrivener, my friend who I mentioned who wrote the book The Air We Breathe, he always says... I just ordered a book. Great. I'll make sure I let him know. You got him a sale. You did. I might even get him to sign it for you. The... One of the things he says is, you know, when people say that morality, like, where do you get your morality from?

And I've done this with, you know, atheists who want to ascribe, say that rape is wrong. Now, rape is wrong. Rape is objectively wrong. And I say, okay, why is rape wrong? Where do you get the objective morality to say that something like rape is wrong? And they say, how dare you say I don't have any... Morality. I'm saying, no, no, no. I'm not saying you don't have morality.

I'm saying, where do you get that from? And Glenn has this analogy where he says, it's like saying, where did you get your pants from? Where did you buy them? And you say, how dare you say I don't have any pants on? Like, no, no, I'm not saying you don't have any pants. Where's the source that your pants came from, Patrick? Where did you purchase them from?

And so I think when we look at something like equality or morality or freedom and we say, okay, where is the standard by which we can actually ground these things in order to use them as the objective goods that they are for our society? Where's that coming from? Now, I can ground that as a Christian in the objectivity of scripture and in a God who does not change.

And that's where a lot of the founders of Western civilization got it from. Even if they weren't necessarily sold on Christianity wholesale, they're borrowing that from Christianity. It's the infrastructure that builds these things.
