There is no such thing as a nine-year-old woman. The Quran permits you. It says in black and white that you can marry prepubescent children. The idea that it was different back then is nonsense because according to Sharia law, according to all the madhabs, you can still marry children today. And he was wise enough to tell us not to eat bacon sandwiches, but not to shag little children. Over 9,000 crimes in a two-year period against Christian churches. Over 1,000 of them were acts of violence. There's been murder attempts of Christians at Speaker's Corner. Churches that have been there for centuries suddenly catching fire. We're in a very crucial stage in history for the fate and future of this country.

Happy St George's Day. Happy St George's Day. How are you? I'm good. Well, let's start with the real story of St George. Jumping in, right? Straight in.
Bob of Speakers' Corner 1:40
Fine, yes. So St George, he was born in occupied, what is now occupied East Turkey or Cappadocia, born to a Roman family. His father was a Roman soldier who became a Christian and was then martyred for the faith. His mother then took him back to Lida or Diaspolis, which is in what we now call Palestine or Israel, you know, near Beirut. Well, maybe that's even Lebanon, actually. But he was raised by his mother to be a Christian. He was a very pious Christian. And then as he grew up, he decided to join the Roman army himself. And he excelled. He was a A courageous soldier, a talented soldier, and a proven soldier. And he rose quickly through the ranks, became a tribune in the Roman army, in the Roman legions.
Bob of Speakers' Corner 2:47
And... And this is all around, he was born around 280 AD, and his life goes into the early 300s. And in 303 AD, Diocletian the Oppressor, launched a major persecution against the Christian church. He was a pagan himself. This was before the conversion of the Roman Empire. And this was the last great persecution of the Christian church. So Christian churches were destroyed, Christian literature was burned, and every Roman soldier, because there were lots of Christians in the Roman legions, was forced to make offerings to the pagan gods by pouring a bit of salt on an incenser before a statue or a bust of a god, and particularly the emperor. And they were ordered to persecute Christians. And Saint George refused.
Bob of Speakers' Corner 3:44
He refused to carry out the edict. He refused to use his authority against Christian congregations. So he placed church before empire. And he also refused to sacrifice to the pagan gods. Now, because George was such a great Roman soldier, rather than just have him executed like anyone else, the emperor decided to make an example of him. and wanted to break him. And, you know, accounts differ as about whether he was tortured over years or whether he was tortured intensely, but he was tortured to renounce his faith. So they stuck... iron sandals on him with nails in them to burn his feet. They regularly whipped him and beat him. They chucked him into a pit of lime. They locked him up in a dungeon, a cell, little food, little water.
Bob of Speakers' Corner 4:47
And after all of these various tortures were inflicted upon him, and he still had not renounced the faith, he continued to say Christos is Kaiser, which is Christ is Lord, rather than, you know, saying that the emperor, Diocletian, was Lord.
