Chapter 1: What human rights violations are highlighted in the discussion?
human rights violations by Trump and his government are every single day when it comes to ICE. We've seen it with Pete Hegseth. It's everywhere all the time. But particularly the way they speak about immigrants that come to this country for asylum and other reasons, they demean them and dehumanize them. This has caused the first American pope to come out against the United States government.
Chapter 2: How does Pope Leo's stance challenge the U.S. government's actions?
And here we have The church cannot stay silent before injustice toward migrants. You stand with me and I stand with you. That's from the first American Pope, Pope Leo. I'm not a huge fan of the Pope, but he does lead the Catholic Church.
Chapter 3: What is Moses Mike Johnson's view on immigration and the Pope's criticism?
And you have the white nationalist Christians, the evangelicals, none other than Moses Mike Johnson, who honestly thinks that he is hand chosen by God, and God told him he was Moses.
And he disagrees with the Pope because he is the leader of protecting and not holding accountable people that dehumanize, marginalize and murder people and treat them so inhumanely, send them to fucking concentration camps. He rubber stamps all of that. So when asked about it, here is his response to the Pope.
Pope Leo has cited Matthew 25, 35 to critique Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda.
Chapter 4: How do biblical interpretations influence modern immigration policies?
How would you respond to Pope Leo in scripture?
So you want me to give you a theological dissertation? All right. I'll tell you what, I'll post it on my website later today, but let me give you a quick summary. Borders and walls are biblical.
Chapter 5: What role do evangelical Christians play in shaping U.S. politics?
From the Old Testament to the New, God has...
Why does he have to sit there? First of all, he did give us the dissertation on his website. I will say that. But, you know, borders are biblical.
Chapter 6: How does the podcast address the issue of Christian nationalism?
It's fucking 2,000 years old. It does not apply. Not everybody believes in this document. To make an excuse that a religious doctrine should be part of the government, isn't that why we had the separation of church and state? Isn't that why the United States was founded?
Chapter 7: What are the implications of purity culture in evangelical communities?
Not making religion the government?
Isn't that why they left England? Am I crazy? It's exactly why they did. And the founders were mainly deists, which is a distinction from Christians.
Chapter 8: How does the episode conclude regarding the relationship between religion and politics?
And a lot of them were not this breed of Christian. These were big thinkers, these men. But we have known for a very long time, since the 80s at least, that there is a desire, a rightward Christian nationalist movement funding the Supreme Court, funding the Republican Party, funding the Heritage Foundation, funding the Federalist Society, that they want to dismantle it.
So you have to have people Christian signal in government. and that's what he does this is not new we have politicians in oklahoma that talk ad nauseum about their over religiosity the governor of oklahoma kevin stitt after he won a second term got on camera and said i dedicate every square inch of the state to jesus christ
Then he proceeds to hammer down policies that cause human suffering, exacerbate poverty and exacerbate the marginalization of groups. If you're not in the oil and gas company in Oklahoma, Kevin Stitt will not favor you. He furthermore takes positions to demonize the native population of Oklahoma. So this is not new. Moses Mike Grinder Johnson doing this is not new.
What is new for me is seeing a Catholic church stand up against a pedophile ring. So that's growth. That's growth on a global scale, in my opinion. But Moses Mike Grinder Johnson is every asshole Oklahoma politician I've ever heard talk long before Trump descended on the escalator and the Republican Party intentionally intentionally went into churches, used abortion, used gay marriage.
Now they've moved on to trans people. They have to keep increasing the hit, the hit, the hit. So it's just, what's crazy is that he's the Speaker of the House. That's how their ambitions, how successful their diabolical ambitions of making this country a Christian nationalist regime.
His standing there saying that as the Speaker of the House shows you how serious Christian nationalists are, because it's not new. Yeah, you're right. Okay, continue on with the video.
A couple more things. To set up our civil societies and have separate nations. Immigration is not something that's frowned upon in Scripture. In fact, it's welcome. We're going to welcome the sojourner and love our neighbor as ourself. But what's also important in the Bible is that assimilation is expected and anticipated and proper.
When someone comes into your country, comes into your nation, they do not...
Here's the thing I just want to jump in to say. I would imagine considering that he's an alleged heterosexual, that he's assimilated into heterosexual society. This man says he believes that homosexuality is a choice. By admitting that, you're owning that you had to choose.
