What is the opening premise of the episode and why does the host reference Ecclesiastes?
Welcome to Politics by Faith. It's where we take the news of the day. We bring it to the Bible so we can walk away with peace and perspective. New headlines every day. But Ecclesiastes says it's not the new under the sun. And I have a story today that it's like I hope we prove that every day that there's nothing new under the sun, but this one's like one to one, nothing new under the sun. So thanks for being here to get the true story today. The story of the day. Lindsey Clancy. And the evil. I think we're We're all pretty caught up on the Lindsay Clancy story for the most part. We get we get the idea here that she murdered her three children with exercise bands, strangled them one by one. But because women can do no wrong,
And I mean this is this is the feminist perspective that women can do no wrong. Women are an oppressed group. So this is the Marxist slash feminist framework. Uh women aren't a press group. So Bad things that women do or bad things that happen to women. А the fault of the oppressors. In this case, the uh the oppressors are men, or if you can't point to a specific man, like the husband in this case, it's just the system. The system failed her. She was asking for help, and the system, which was created and run by men, uh let her down. Right. So therefore she and no woman can ever be held accountable for anything. One woman uh on the street interview Said Lindsay was sleep deprived. As if that's an excuse for murdering your three children.
We talked about empathy the other day, no empathy for the murdered kids, and no empathy for the husband whose life has been crushed. The TikTok women started off blaming him because that's how the paradigm works, right? Like women woman accused of bad thing. It's not her fault. Take her off the list. Who's the first man to blame?
How does the host describe the Lindsay Clancy case and the surrounding feminist/Marxist narrative?
Her husband. Her husband did it. And then people had to Say well. No, no, she admits she did it. That's not it. This isn't a who-done it on Netflix or IDTV. Like we know who did it. She did it. And you tell that to someone, they're like, Oh so but then once people figure that out, like, Oh well, uh fine, it's the fault again of or I've heard some people the system, but I was uh some people said it's it's still his fault by negligence. There's so many things we could talk about the story. We could talk about it for hours. Let me just pick uh two points here. First, there's nothing new under the sun, right? As Ecclesiastes says, here's a true crime story. People love the true crime. I don't love true crime. I'm not interested in this.
It doesn't or I'm not, um it's not that I'm not interested. I'm interested in the social ramifications of the story. That that's what it is. I'm not interested in the crime. The crime's horrific. I I I'm not uh what's the word? Like people are like um it's not that they're enthralled or captivated, they're I I don't know I don't know the appeal of of the true crime story, like watching it at night before you go to bed. What is that? What's the Nate Bargazzi joke? I gotta find that for the show tomorrow. Uh Nate Bargazzi was doing the opening for the Emmys and he was uh the in he was pretending to be the inventor of TV. And uh he was talking about all the different types of shows and and one of them was, oh, crime stories, stories of horrific murderers.
And the and the guy goes, Well, who would want to watch that? My wife and your wife. All the wives They'll they'll all watch it. They'll all what I don't know why.
Why does the host argue that brain chemistry and trauma are insufficient to explain evil actions?
So here's a true crime story. Constance Fisher. She was this was nine she got fried in nineteen forty six. She was seventeen, he was twenty-four, nothing unusual for the time. He was a World War II veteran. She was depressed and had anxiety, or whatever they called that back then, but that's what that was. They got married and they lived in Maine. He came home from work one day. The door was locked. So he called the doctor who was treating her for depression. And the two of them busted down the door to the house. They had three children. Two of the children were tucked in their beds. Dead. The third was still in the bathtub.
