Hey guys, real quick podcast today. I'm actually going to a campground tonight, which is nice.

00:19

My wife wanted to camp during the summer and this is the first time and it's already after the middle of July.

00:25

We're going away for two nights, which is cool. Two separate campgrounds and hopefully going to see some things farther west in New York.

00:35

And it's just a little cloudy right now, but it's a beautiful time of year and it just feels really nice.

00:41

So I'm looking forward to it. But before I went, I wanted to just give you guys a little bit of a podcast at least.

00:49

It's not going to be as long as my typical ones, but just a few things that I've noticed that have come across my computer screen that I thought were worth sharing.

01:00

The first one I want to just briefly share is Snow White, this movie that's coming out.

01:06

I know there's a lot of talk about a lot of movies. There's the Barbie movie. There's Oppenheimer, which TruthScript just did a review on.

01:13

There's just a lot of movies. And Snow White, though, it hasn't even come out.

01:19

I think it's coming out next year. But there's been some interviews with I think it's Rachel Zegler who plays

01:25

Snow White and then Gal Gadot who plays the Evil Queen. And here are just two little clips from some interviews.

01:33

You said you were bringing a modern edge to it on stage. What do you mean by that? I just mean that it's no longer 1937.

01:39

And we absolutely wrote a Snow White that is not going to be saved by the prince. She's not going to be saved by the prince and she's not going to be dreaming about true love.

01:48

She's dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be and the leader that her late father told her that she could be if she was fearless, fair, brave and true.

01:56

And so it's just a really incredible story for I think young people everywhere to see themselves in. Snow White is running for president.

02:02

I'm launching my campaign. The cartoon was made 85 years ago and therefore it's extremely dated when it comes to the ideas of women being in roles of power and and what a woman is fit for in the world.

02:19

And so when we came to reimagining the actual role of Snow White, it became about the fairest of them all, meaning who is the most just and who can become a fantastic leader.

02:30

And the reality is, you know, Snow White has to learn a lot of lessons about coming into her own power before she can come into power over a kingdom.

02:38

Also the fact that she's not going to be saved by the prince and she's the proactive one and she's the one who set the terms is what makes it so relevant to where we are.

02:50

So here's what I wanted to say about this. I actually find it somewhat refreshing. Now that might sound weird, but here's why.

02:57

Because it seems like for years, sometimes they've been overt, but sometimes they haven't with the infusion of feminist woke ideologies and all of that.

03:08

And in this particular film, I'm just really refreshed to hear the actresses say, yeah, yeah, over 80 years ago, it was pretty archaic.

03:17

It's pretty wrong. It was we don't like that. We don't like traditional like gender roles. And we prefer feminism.

03:25

That's basically what you're hearing there. And at least they're overt with it. At least they're not just you're not going to the theater thinking you're getting one thing.

03:33

And then all of a sudden, oh, no, I didn't realize this was in the movie. Or look at that subversive theme that they never told us about.

03:40

Like they're actually being pretty overt with it. And so I just wanted to point that out.

03:46

Of course, I'm not going to see Snow White. And if I had children that were the age that Snow White's targeting,

03:52

I wouldn't take them either. They can go watch the one from the 30s. That's what I say. In other news,

03:58

I just wanted to follow up on something too, because some people were questioning the whole is

04:03

Charlie Kirk pro homosexuality in this kind of thing. And, and so I'm not going to play you the clip from the last podcast.

04:12

It was over six minutes long, but it was from a Turning Point USA event a few years ago. And Charlie Kirk basically uses a lot of what

04:19

I would consider to be woke tactics. It was pretty, it's pretty terrible, not gonna lie, it was pretty awful.

04:26

Again, someone who is asking legitimate questions, should conservative support gay marriage, things like that. And Charlie Kirk just shut this guy down.

04:33

So, so that's opened up some questions about that. And I asked the question myself,

04:40

I said, has he changed his position? I haven't seen him acknowledge this. I haven't seen him talk about it. I know he's against the trans stuff.

04:46

I know. I've even heard him say negative things about like gay marriage, I think, but it's more like relevant.

04:53

It's regulated this personal, this kind of like preference he has because of his religion or something.

04:59

It's not something that's publicly necessarily incumbent on everyone to honor.

05:06

So in other words, like what I had, this is what I have not seen from Charlie Kirk. I have not seen him ever say that was a bad law because it violated

05:18

God's law, violated even what we understand in natural revelation to be the role of men and women.

05:24

That's what I haven't seen. And, and so I want to play you another clip. Here's just, these are in sequential order from I think 2018.

05:34

And the last clip I believe is from like a few months ago. And this is Charlie Kirk speaking on the matter.

05:40

So here it is. Final point is what I think is the position that needs to be articulated better is

05:47

I have no problem with, you know, gay marriage, whatever. Like I believe marriage, one man, one woman, that's my own personal position. Right.

05:52

But I'm never going to tell government to have someone live a life. I think it's cool. You're married. I think it's great. And you should have all the same tax benefits, adopt children.

05:58

It's great. Right. But I feel the same way about you. It's fine. It's like, whatever. But that's, that's more of like a generational perspective.

06:04

It's the thing that people have to realize about the alphabet mafia is that it's not just about two dudes being able to get married first.

06:10

It was like, no, we want to be able to just to have social acceptance of like two women or two men together.

06:16

That was like their first thing, like will and grace, like, okay, fine, whatever. Then it was, we need marriage because it's all about equality and love is love.

06:25

Love is what we need. And then they won the, Oh, I can never pronounce Oberfell right decision in 2011, 2012.

06:34

And so then marriage equality was the law of the land, overturning other States that believed marriage is one man and one woman and national takeover of our laws and unprecedented federal takeover.

06:44

No one wanted to oppose them like, okay, this will get rid of the gay issue. That's what we thought, right? Oberfell was 2015.

06:50

I'm sorry. You're right. Thank you. And so there was this desire by, let's say peace, loving conservatives.

06:59

And it was very tempting to fall into line here. And in some ways I was young and naive and I fell into line with this too.

07:05

There was this desire that the issue of gay marriage and LGBT, whatever was going to go away that it was okay, marriage.

07:16

Now we can no longer talk about it. In fact, that was the argument that a lot of conservatives would give.

07:22

That is the argument that a lot of conservatives would say in 2014, 15, 16, let marriage happen.

07:29

We'll never have to talk about it again. Instead. It's the opposite. The opposite is that gay marriage happens. We're talking about gay stuff more than any other time.

07:37

Why? Because they are not happy just having marriage. Instead, they now want to corrupt your children.

07:45

Don't believe me. Just listen to the song. They say that. And let's be clear. Many of you probably have a temperament like I do on the gay or lesbian issue.

07:55

Look, first of all, I believe marriage is one man, one woman. I'm very clear about that. Okay. And, but I think many of you probably have a built -in temperament.

08:03

I'm not here to over police your personal life. If you're an adult, I don't agree with it. I don't believe it's right, but live and let live.

08:09

That doesn't exist. Live and let live is dead. It's live and let us rule is what we live under now.

08:16

Okay. So in that clip, I think you can see that there's kind of like a consistent inconsistency.

08:22

So Charlie Kirk over the years has, I think he's realized, Oh no, uh, they weren't going to stop with gay marriage.

08:29

If we do, he was under the impression. If we just gave him that, then they'd stop and they haven't. So maybe that was a mistake, but that's a very kind of pragmatic way,

08:36

I think, to look at it. Um, you're not going to hear him things like this is against the created order.

08:43

This is against what God's told us. This is evil. You're like, you don't hear him say those kinds of things. Uh, so has he changed his position?

08:50

I don't know. I don't think so. I think he's gotten wiser and he's realized at least that, uh, the play that was made on him, but that doesn't necessarily mean he has, um, he has changed his like, if you asked him point blank, are you okay with, uh, homosexual marriage being legal?

09:10

I don't know what he would say. I would assume though, based on the clips that we just watched and based on everything that I've seen that I've, I've, and I've looked it up.

09:17

I've tried to figure this out. Uh, I think he would say he's okay with it unless he's had a recent change.

09:22

And so pray for that. That that's really the bottom line is just pray for that because I don't have anything against Charlie Kirk. And I think he does a lot of good work in some areas.

09:29

So let's just, uh, pray that he's a little more consistent with this and, um, isn't afraid if, if that's what's holding him back or, or if he's just,

09:38

I don't know if his thinking is actually wrong on this, that he would see the truth and he is a

09:44

Christian so that he would, I guess, repent of, uh, the clip I played, not in this particular video, but in the last one, uh, that has raised all the questions.

09:53

And, um, and that's how I view it. Just move on. So, um, lots of other stuff that I'd love to weigh in on, but I don't have time because I got to get camping.

10:01

So, uh, God bless. I hope that everyone out there is having a wonderful summer and, uh, more coming later in the week.
