#FreeMenHere2021
Hello there, this is AD Robles and you're listening to AD on the Fight Laugh Feast
Network, right?
All right.
Well before we begin today, let me just say this if you have not considered doing so please consider Supporting the
Fight Laugh Feast Network using the show code Robles.
That is R O B L E S use the show code Robles.
That is R O B L E S Just to help us produce more and better and more
consistent Content and all that kind of thing.
We do it for you guys, and it would be great if you could help support the channel that you love so much now
also, I just paid an invoice to purchase a large number
of the old AD Bestseller, it's not really a bestseller.
I mean, I guess if I sold one copy it would be my bestseller, but I have a book coming out Social Justice Pharisees.
It's my first book ever.
I think you'll find it very helpful.
In fact, it will address a lot of the things that we cover in the channel, you know in a nice kind of
written You know normal form that you could hand to someone and all that kind of thing.
I know there are some of you that that you know, maybe you wouldn't want to necessarily recommend the AD Robles YouTube channel.
I don't understand it.
I mean, I think I'm I think I do a good job.
But some of you, you know a little hardcore for some people I get it.
So this book is supposed to fill that void.
It doesn't lose my you know, my voice but at the same time it's a little more Easy to
swallow I guess you could say so that's coming out very soon.
In fact from what I understand I ordered I paid the invoice today.
I Understand what I understand is two weeks I'll have it in my hands and I'll be mailing it out to people who already ordered it and
There'll be other ways for you to get it as well because I bought more copies than were then were pre
-ordered.
So talk more about that later.
But anyway, look looking forward to that if you if you did buy a copy I will be sending an email very shortly once I have a very
clear timeline on what's gonna happen.
You know the way things are working these days with the meat with the news and nothing news via the mail and all that kind Of stuff.
It's hard to say if there will be delays or not.
I don't know I mean, we don't even have gas in the gas pump, you know what I mean?
So who knows but anyway, that's the plan two weeks.
I should have it in my hands and we will be good to go now.
Yeah, a lot of you guys I was surprised honestly, and and this is just it's not my area, right?
I'm not a I'm not a music guy.
You know, I'm still listening to Smashing Pumpkins, you know what I mean?
Like I'm not a music guy, so I didn't know anything about this Ruslan KD.
Like I said, I had heard the name but it's just not my circles, you know what I mean?
I don't I don't listen to this kind of stuff.
But apparently he's very popular and people were very interested to see me continue.
You know commenting about this video and so I will in fact, yeah Marcus and
Ruslan Both commented on the channel and said that they enjoyed it as well.
In fact, here's a.
Here's a comment from Ruslan.
He says thanks for reacting to this solid breakdown.
Nevertheless, it sounds like you're coming from a similar presuppositional post mill covenantal fundamentalist perspective
as Marcus.
Let's get a few more buzzwords in there for for the people in the back.
They might not have noticed and that's definitely true.
100 % very similar perspective to Marcus.
No question about it.
But the reality is though guys that you don't have to be a presuppositional post mill
covenantal fundamentalist to Understand that you got to take the Bible seriously
and you got to understand that the Bible is sufficient for every good work.
There's nothing about those sentences.
Those are Bible verses.
Well, at least the first one was the second one.
You don't have to be a fundamentalist to understand like if it means every good work then yeah every good work the Bible is Sufficient for so we
should be looking to the Bible for the answers there.
I don't think you need to be a presuppositional post mill covenantal fundamentalist to believe that in fact, I know you don't
have to be that that's a little bit of a weird comment, but I did want to clarify because I I'm
pretty sure all of us knew this but I wanted to at least give him his due here.
He says for clarity.
Attempting to get sushi didn't make me instantly think quote UBI was bad.
Lol.
Lol funny.
You framed it that way I gave the macro reflection of how extended unemployment benefits weren't so beneficial
and then shared a person personal anecdote to illustrate the point.
Not sure how that was missed.
It wasn't missed Ruslan.
It wasn't missed.
Yeah, I know I knew exactly what you're doing.
It's preposterous either way though see, that's the point like like, you know, you we don't need to like
experience the insanity of Unemployment benefits to know that they're wrong
because the scripture has no place for it.
I mean, there's no place for someone who's not working to eat.
That's Bible verse as well.
If he does not work, he does not eat.
I'm sorry.
If he's not willing to work, he does not eat right?
And so clearly unemployment benefits are a no -go and also The it would be fine if the government
paid unemployment benefits with its own money.
But the problem is the government doesn't have any of its own money.
That doesn't produce anything.
All it does is take so there's no room in the Bible for unemployment benefits.
There is room for charity in the Bible, which is something that Christians have done since the beginning and
continue to do at very high rates and so we don't need to my point is my
point is that we have a word from the From the Lord, right?
So we don't need to fall into the ditch to know that we shouldn't have Attempted to fall into that
ditch like we we know what's good.
We know what's right because God tells us what's good and what's right.
So we don't have to wait until all of a sudden it's a disaster.
Like every any anyone should have been able to know that UBI would be a disaster for the economy.
Anyone should be able to know that not only from The scripture but also just from general revelation.
Obviously people if you're gonna pay them to do nothing and oftentimes pay them more to do nothing
than to work.
They're gonna prefer to do that.
Anyway, and we're not gonna go into that too much into detail here.
Maybe I will in a new video because that's a topic that I don't know why people are confused about that.
But it makes perfect sense, you know when you're thinking logically about the economy and all that kind of thing.
Let's jump into it today though, because we've got more stuff coming up.
Let's go.
Yeah, so it's Exodus Exodus 1821 18 to select the capable women from all the people who fear
God trustworthy men.
Yeah.
So those are the standards for tens and thousands and hundreds.
So when they're electing leaders as a people, yeah.
So that's pretty much.
Mad at me in the comments and said that they don't think I'm smart anymore because I said that Donald Trump
wouldn't meet the three requirements in Exodus Anymore, and and I'm not really sure why that would.
You know, I'm I'm sure I'm not as smart as I think I am.
But yeah, I don't really know why I'm a commenter.
If you see this video, please explain yourself a little bit more.
I didn't really understand Solution to some stuff.
Maybe I'm too stupid to understand.
Sorry.
So the the mentality there is that there's these structures that have been created that are
racist and so my question really is a lot of people talk about there's a lot of debate on whether it exists or not and
and we could do that and and and and I would say I Mean my
position would be it exists in some ways but not as prevalent as it's made out to be.
But my ultimate question is like, oh, well, for example, I would say that an
Example of systemic racism would be minimum wage, right?
I think minimum wage is racist.
It was created by people who are trying to get who were mad that black people were working cheaper and harder than
them and so they created a Minimum wage.
It was the first minimum wage law in the country I think in Connecticut and or Delaware and it was
actually struck down until the New Deal and then it was brought back in.
It was struck down because it was racist.
So so I would say that so my but I have a solution in the solution.
My solution to minimum wage is found in Jesus's parable of the vineyard worker.
Where there is almost This idea that if there is a minute if minimum
wage is okay Then the parable that is explaining God's sovereignty doesn't make sense.
All right, so let me stop here for a second because this is I really appreciated this from from Marcus because
It's a very strategically good one to bring up right because everything he said about minimum wage and why it
was developed and all that.
It's all true.
It was it was done to the minimum wage was established in order to keep people from hiring
blacks.
Because people were hiring blacks For cheaper than they could hire whites and they were working really
hard.
They were out working people and People were like, well, what's that?
What's good?
What's what's this all about?
And and so so they developed this minimum wage and all that kind of stuff and so.
And the thing is though This is what I want to make sure to avoid though, right because because I'm not against minimum
wage.
Because it's racist.
Even if it was developed as a racist policy, that's not why I'm against minimum wage.
I'm against minimum wage first and foremost because it's not biblical.
You know what?
I mean?
The the Bible does not give quarter for the government to be getting involved in personal Negotiations like
that.
So if I want to sell labor For a cheaper rate Than my neighbor for whatever
and that's what I want to do.
Then I should be able to do that like there's no reason for the government to get involved there and what?
Marcus is referring to in this parable is that Jesus clearly identifies that the fact that there are property
rights, right?
So if you own the labor and you're and you're and your employer owns the money you can decide what you're worth.
You know between the two of you and that's no need for the government to get involved there.
In fact, there's no place for the government to get involved there.
Price setting is not in the purview of governments.
So that's why I'm against it now.
It might just be so happen that you know people use minimum wage in a racist way and that's and that's
awful as well however, I Don't want the government getting involved in that because that's not their
place according to the scripture.
That's not their place and that's a really strategically smart example to use for for Marcus because
it's almost guaranteed.
Talking to Ruslan who just admitted to at one point supporting UBI.
He very likely supports minimum wage laws.
He very likely supports higher minimum wage laws than we currently have.
And so very strategic because he's kind of putting Ruslan on the defensive here.
You know having to face the reality that minimum wage.
Actually does not work to the benefit of the people that Ruslan claims to be for.
Because the the principle in that was that you know, the vineyard worker was getting paid more for time or whatever
and God says It's my money I can do with.
Don't parable.
Yeah, so I'm 99.
So the answer is 1099.
I'm down, bro.
Internships.
Yes, right.
So so I could pull out these ideas.
Actually why I think yeah, it's great 1099, you know.
Employment is great when you're self -employed and all that kind of stuff.
That's all great because the thing is like the government doesn't have really a place to be telling you what kind of arrangements you should be In
that's all fine.
You know what I mean?
But but again, like like like this is a great example and I would recommend, you know.
Using this example when somebody brings to you a you know concrete sort of policy, you
know issue.
That's real good stuff.
Systems that are inherently racist.
But what would you say?
Well, let me just ask you this.
What is what would you say is a good example of systemic racism and and what
is your soul?
What would you say would be a biblical solution to that a.
Good example of systemic racism.
I would say the way Public schools are funded.
I think that the way that they're funded may not be Overtly racist.
We're like, ah, we're gonna make sure that the poor black kids have trashed schools, right?
A third of public school funding comes from local property taxes, so my
experience as Someone that grows up in Vista, which was guess what more Mexican
and black school Completely different than my brother and sister who grew
up in Delmar.
I don't know how well how familiar you are with Delmar in San Diego Property tax community literally
completely everything about their experience was completely different.
That's the the classroom sizes the access to technology.
So on and so forth the entire experience was day and night different.
That was because of the third of the revenue that comes for funding public schools.
Not these are private schools.
These are public schools I think is extremely problematic.
And so I think that's that that's an indicator.
So if you're coming from an area with very Low income taxes,
excuse me property taxes I think that's going to directly negatively benefit people in those area
by the way.
And what I'm what I'm not saying is that there needs to be equal outcomes.
I'm not saying but you are saying that.
So this is an interesting example.
So so Ruslan starts talking about a typical, you know, kind of liberal talking point.
You know schools aren't the same and that means that they don't have the right same opportunity.
Let's just let him finish so we can talk about this because there's a slight of hand here.
Think equitable outcomes, right?
I'm not for like that little chart.
We see the chart where the guys are saying, right?
Yeah, they all should get arrested right because they're all like stealing from the game that they should watch.
So that's talking about equitable Outcomes.
I'm saying an equal access to an opportunity that I think if we're coming from a
biblical framework I think we would agree.
Hey people regardless of the family they were born into regardless on the neighborhood They were born into regardless on whatever
should have equal access to a quality education whether they live in Delmar.
This is interesting.
So so here's here's what he said, so If we have a biblical framework, we should
agree that everyone should have equal access to education.
Whether they live in a bad neighborhood or a good neighborhood.
They should have equal access to education and he just assumes that we should agree with that as Christians.
And he says I'm not for equal outcomes.
I'm for equal opportunity and that sounds great, right?
You know, it sounds like he's hitting all the right talking points.
But there's a slight of hand here and maybe he doesn't see what he's doing himself.
I don't know but.
What he's done is he said look in the biblical worldview.
Everyone should be given the same opportunity.
Everyone's the same and and and really I don't know where he would ground that.
Honestly don't know where he would get that from the Bible.
I mean, maybe he would maybe he would ground it in the image of God.
But the reality is that God doesn't treat us like that.
God advantages his people.
God advantages his people even as the Egyptians in the fan and and and and the
and the and the Philistines and all the pagans were also made in the image of God like they were made in the
image of God back then just like we are today and yet God advantages his
people and so so in order to under order to think that education
the access to education and opportunity and education Ought to be equal automatically then you must think it's an
entitlement like we're entitled to having a good education.
And that's just simply not the case at all.
It's a nice liberal talking point that sounds really good and everyone wants to agree with it.
But you can't really agree with it when you're looking at reality because here's the facts I and
and by the by my experience just so you know, maybe you don't know this I grew up in a
not great neighborhood, right?
In fact I grew up in a not great neighborhood in Connecticut and we were one of the one of the early
kind of experiments with Kind of social engineering.
In fact, I remember in elementary school I was bussed to a faraway elementary school.
That was you know, all the rich kids went Paquanic and that's where it was Paquanic and all the
rich kids went there and they sent some of the rich Paquanic kids to my
Elementary school which was JFK and Then they sent some of the poor JFK kids to Paquanic to the rich kids
elementary school.
And I was one of those kids and everybody hated it.
Everybody hated it.
It was annoying.
It made no sense.
You know all you had to leave all your friends and all this stuff.
It was stupid and everybody hated it and it was just to me.
It was a failed experiment.
I'm sure that they think it was the greatest thing since sliced bread because they love tinkering with people's lives and stuff like that.
Governments are twisted.
And so but the point is though that that that that you know.
Did I deserve that didn't I am I owed a better education or a more equal or equitable education?
No, I'm not.
You see this is the reality like like my parents did the best they could for me at the time and
I was privileged in Many ways, but in some ways we didn't have enough money and things like that.
And and this is the thing like I have no right to shake my fist up at the government or God to
say God.
Why did you put me in this poor neighborhood?
Like I didn't even have access to a Great school and like my school's playground was garbage compared to
Paquanic and it's like like what would make you think?
That you would have the right to do that to shake your fist and say everyone needs equal opportunities.
It's like that's actually not biblical.
That's actually not biblical.
See my.
Like if you if you take that one step back, right because here's what he's saying.
He's saying I'm not looking for equal outcomes only equal opportunities BC you got to go back in time for this because
here's the thing like like the school that you go to the school that Your parents can afford to send you to.
That's part of the outcome right like that's part of you know Your parents outcome your grandparents outcome
and the outcome of history.
So like like You can't pretend like like like the opportunity started,
you know.
At the education that you're getting like that's not where it started.
That's part of the outcome.
So you see the sleight of hand here is saying no.
No going to school is part of the opportunity not the outcome.
But really it's one of the outcomes of your parents and of your parents parents and stuff like that
and that's totally Legitimate right like we we should be looking to advantage our children and
so that they can then advantage their children.
This is a biblical principle by the way.
This is a real biblical principle where it says in the scripture that a righteous man Leaves an inheritance
to his children's children.
You should be thinking forward to advantage your own Children because that's part of what a righteous man
does leaves an inheritance to his children's children.
The Bible does not say that a righteous man leaves an inheritance to someone else's kids.
It says leave an inheritance to your children.
And so my father by the grace of God did better than my grandfather did
and my grandfather by the grace of God did better than his Father did and all of that kind of thing and God willing I
will do better than my father did and it will be able to leave an inheritance to my children's children and if I and if
I think that you know paying for more expensive education is one of the things I'd want to do.
Then God willing I'll be able to do that right or homeschooling.
So, you know, not really part of the whole program.
But you see like it's a it's a sleight of hand to say well, I'm just I'm just talking about opportunities here and
not not outcome.
No, no, you're talking about outcome.
You want to make everything even Stevens so that no matter what their parents did no matter what
Everyone can get the same education and not only is that not a biblical principle, even though you seem to
say it was.
It's not feasible.
It's not realistic.
It's not something that we can do in reality because everybody makes choices and You know whether you
you want to face it or not what your parents do Has an impact on you, you know
what I mean what your parents are able to accomplish Has an impact on you and there's nothing wrong with
There's nothing wrong with that unless you're willing to shake your fist at God and say yeah God you made my dad a drunk
and now I'm suffering it's like I'm not really in the position to do that.
I was blessed with a great father I was a great blessed with a great family.
There's just no question about it.
I recognize that as a blessing and so I understand that.
You know when God gives you stuff when he gives you a lot of blessings and then he expects a return on what he gives You
and so I'm working in order to do that.
I'm working in order to Continue to expand the kingdom of God I'm working to
provide godly offspring for the Lord and all of those kinds of things and it's like
That's what we're supposed to do.
I Mean, I I'm assuming Ruslan's doing that with his kids I'm assuming that he's trying to
position his own children and his children's children with an inheritance and all that kind of and there's nothing wrong with that
because Someone down the street might not be doing that doesn't mean that you have to have the same schooling
as that person's kids.
Okay, that's not what it means at all.
I don't see how you could read the scriptures Both Testaments the Old and the New Testaments and not see that
God advantages his people All the time.
You know, and I'm sorry I'm harping on this but this is an important thing because what Ruslan said sounds really good to a
lot of even conservatives.
Yeah equal opportunity, but you got to be careful because you can't just arbitrarily call an
education Which is a consumer product by the way, it's something that you pay for.
As you can't you can't say that that's that's just an entitlement.
It's not there.
You have no entitlement to education.
There's no Christian principle that says you have an entitlement to education you as a parent.
You have a responsibility to teach your kids and if you Betray your children and don't
teach your kids properly.
That's that's a sin on you and it's not the responsibility of the government to step in there.
It isn't it isn't anyway.
So yeah, let's let's talk about that.
Mark is talking or they're living in Vista based on.
If we're gonna fund it as the government we're gonna fund it as a government.
I don't think government should so here's how Marcus tries to go.
He says the solution is the government shouldn't be funded at all.
And that is definitely true.
The government should not be involved in education whatsoever.
They should not have one dime.
Going towards education.
It's not their job biblically.
It's not their job.
But even if they were going to take and fund these schools Why why would you think
that they should fund it equally?
Why would you think that I'm not really sure and it's not even feasible.
It's not possible to do that.
It's not possible to fund every school the same.
It wouldn't be good for anybody at all.
It wouldn't be anyway, let's continue.
Using the government just to fund schools at all defund all the schools.
Okay, so that's a whole note.
So that's a whole nother conversation.
Yeah, let me let me let me give you the answer.
So let me give you the answer to that solution.
So the solution so we're about to get a solution from Ruslan and and
You know, he tries to he tries to sidestep Marcus's kind of radical solution of hey.
No more government's funding for schools defund all the schools.
That's the biblical answer by the way.
It's not it's not just Marcus's opinion.
This is what the scripture says the scripture does not give the authority to educate children at all.
It squarely gives it to the parents.
It's the parents responsibility to educate children now the parents might choose to pay someone else to do it.
The parents might choose to do it themselves.
There's a variety of things that parents could you or the parents might choose not to do it and just to say I don't care.
What God says like like there's lots of different things that the parents could choose.
But one thing that is definitely not an option is to let make the government do it make the government
Steal like like you can't abdicate your responsibility.
If you pretend like the government has that responsibility this responsibility to educate your kids.
It's still yours.
You're just advocating it.
So Ruslan wants to sidestep that he says that's a separate issue.
It's a separate conversation.
No, no, that is the conversation.
That's this conversation that we need to discuss it here.
Because because if you get on the unbelievers airplane, you're gonna go to the unbelievers destination.
And so if you already accept the framework that it's the government's job to educate your kids.
No matter what kind of tinkering you do with the with the with the way it's funded.
It's going to end up at the unbelievers destination, which is not where a Christian ought to want to go.
Lucian would be something like school vouchers something like Sweden does right where
schools have to compete.
To get you to come in.
This is actually a conservative solution with the caveat that the schools are willing to bust
people in and provide Lunches for kids because what happens is a lot of these charter schools say yeah free lunches.
But you have to get dropped off by a parent you can't walk there and you and you can't get bust in.
Oh, and by the way, we're getting rid of school lunches.
We're not funding school lunches.
Kid like me grew up on free school lunches.
I wouldn't have survived if there wasn't free school lunches.
That's how.
Problem with this, right?
So Ruslan has done two things here.
Number one.
He's trying to get a little bit of conservative bona fides here because he's trying to play that that fence -sitter Who's agnostic who doesn't
really know what he wants or what he believes.
So sometimes he votes conservative.
Sometimes he was liberal.
He's getting some bonus points there because the vouchers are often brought up by conservatives as a solution here.
So that's a very good point.
The second thing he's doing here is trying to get some emotional sympathy.
Look, I know what it's like to be poor.
That's what he's saying.
I know what it's.
I would not have survived if I didn't have free school lunches and There's a hidden
there's a hidden Thing here that I want to just reveal to you because.
Because this is often done by liberals by people who want the state to take care of everything.
They basically look to state as daddy, right?
They look to state as daddy.
The hidden assumption here is if the government didn't give me free lunches.
I would have gone hungry.
I would have starved if the government didn't provide for me the school lunches.
It's the same thing with like, you know You always hear the meme that libertarians love to talk about like oh my roads
my roads.
If the government didn't provide for me the roads, what would I do?
Like In the assumption there is if the government doesn't pay for these things it wouldn't happen and it's the
same thing with education if the government didn't provide education.
People would be dumb they would be ignorant and all that kind of thing and There's no reason to
assume that right?
There's no reason to assume that if the government didn't pay for little Ruslan school lunch
somebody probably would have.
Whether it be the church whether it be a charity whether you know We go to the food pantry down the street, whatever because there
are so many people that that today right now Set up on
their own Initiative and their own accord feeding programs where they feed people who
cannot feed themselves during the Great Depression.
I've seen some pictures that I love looking at pictures of the Great Depression because when you're in school You get this image of the
Great Depression being this time of despair and everyone was out for themselves.
Nobody cared about each other and it's just not the case businesses would set up things that said Hey, look, if you're out of work come to this come
to our restaurant.
We'll give you a free donut.
We'll give you free coffee all that kind of stuff.
We want you to have something.
I mean, like like like like Ruslan's like I would not have eaten.
I would not have survived if we didn't have the free lunch program provided by the federal government.
It's like no you would have you would have somebody else would have taken care of you because that's how
things work.
Christians work that way.
During the pandemic last year Mike my church set up an emergency food pantry for people and we would deliver food
to people who didn't want to leave their houses because they were scared of the pandemic and all that stuff and Nobody told us to do it.
The government didn't tell us to do it all we just did it of our own Volition of our own initiative and all
that kind of this happens everywhere in the country everywhere.
And so It's it's you know, I do sympathize with people who didn't have meals.
I I was never in that position.
I was never in that position.
I remember I when I used to visit my grandmother in the Bronx in the projects.
We used to go get the free the free lunches during the summertime at their at their local school.
You know because my grandparents were not rich, you know, they they they were.
You know less well off than we were and stuff like that.
And so yeah, you know, I've taken advantage of some of those programs as well.
But if they weren't there, it's not like people would be starving.
That's just not how it works, especially in a Christian nation.
So, you know, that's the thing like so so he's kind of getting those bona fides.
He's he's kind of giving you the sob story and all that kind of thing but but you got to look behind this a little bit
because you know.
There are hidden arguments being made by by Ruslan here and he's trying to make the argument Marcus.
See you would agree with with vouchers because you're a conservative, right?
It's like yeah, a lot of conservatives do like vouchers.
That does not mean it's biblical.
You know a lot of a lot of people would criticize me last year like oh you're just in the Trump cult and it's like I don't know why anyone would say that
because I you know, every time Trump did something that I liked I said I liked it every time Trump did something that I said
was unbiblical that I thought was unbiblical.
I said it was unbiblical.
He shouldn't do it and and vouchers is one of these things right vouchers is one of these things if a voucher Comes from a
school of its own volition and there no one's forcing it and I'm not paying for it for everyone else.
Then that's fine.
No problem with that kind of voucher.
But if you're taking money from people in order to provide these vouchers for other people.
That's off -limits.
That's completely off -limits for the government to do that's stealing and so no I'm not for
vouchers just because it was invented by Dick Cheney.
Like or whatever it was it was invented I just said Dick Cheney because he was one of the oldest guys that I knew
anyway so so yeah.
Don't be fooled by this stuff.
There's some sleight of hand going on here and I and I don't think that Ruslan is doing this sleight of hand intentionally.
So anyway, let's continue.
The problem is That in order to fund government schools, you have to steal from
people.
Well, that's your position as a libertarian as like a libertarian that thinks all taxation.
Is that right?
My position as a Christian the Bible says thou shall not steal and If I homeschool my kids
and I have to pay for other government school kids.
Like I don't think that is fair and I don't think we don't school.
We don't school as well.
I don't understand what you mean.
Well, I can't because of property taxes.
I can't own property.
Like I can't I can't pass down property to my kids because essentially a property tax is a lease from
the government or the government is giving you permission to Have this property as long as you pay them every year, whatever it
is.
Well sure the government comes in and confiscates it that is terrible for Poor cities.
Yeah, I'm with you and stuff like that.
So so I think you know one I think the church is more than sufficient to be able to handle education.
For the people that can't afford education and also YouTube is pretty fantastic.
I don't know if you've heard.
Absolutely.
No, this is this is a funny point.
But it's actually a legitimate point because it proves that people would get education
if there was no public funding for For education they would get it other ways.
You see it doesn't the need for education doesn't go away if the government decides not to to
Steal from others in order to do it.
See, that's the trick anytime a liberal tells you that you need the government to fund XYZ and that XYZ
is not justice, right?
It's not executing justice upon the evildoer.
Like the scripture says that all you all you have to to do to poke a hole in that is say.
So are you saying that if the government didn't steal from others in order to give this then then nobody would ever figure out how?
To get this like like obviously that's not true.
And so what marcus is saying is here the church could educate people and the church probably would educate people for free if they couldn't
afford It.
Um, and also you can access education for free right now.
I've learned.
Listen, the government has not funded me to learn how to do gardening.
They have not done that.
Um, and somehow I learned how to do some gardening.
The government has not funded for me to learn how to raise chickens and somehow I learned how to raise chickens.
And I did it by the internet.
Which by the way, you can get access to the internet for free as well.
That's that's not something that's hard to do.
There's lots of non -profits that set this kind of stuff up that provide computers.
That all this kind of stuff of their own initiative of their own volition and all that kind of stuff.
Um, so we would find a way to educate people.
And that would be the responsibility of your parents and you know that.
Your parents should obey god in that that's what that's what i'm going to say.
Um, so yeah, good point marcus.
I agree.
So and then also also one more thing, uh, most importantly is fatherhood.
Like that's how you're going to fix education the most agree.
And so fatherhood would fix a lot of the problems in the inner cities and I think we both agree on that.
So.
So again, we're saying within the modern confines.
Right.
The here so tell me uh something that's systemically racist something that like disproportionately
affects people poor people and black people and Mexican people then white people I give an example.
So that's that's you know, hey, we could talk about how that works out.
So I guess your solution though is like dismantle tax.
Property taxes and do away with the entire system because I based it on.
So like hey, i'm not opposed to that.
I mean, maybe that's a good idea.
I don't know.
That's that doesn't sound bad, right?
Yeah, I mean we could say that but the thing is like when we have these conversations We're arguing from
statistics, right?
Like that's what conservatives do they argue from statistics.
Whereas liberals tend to argue based on stories and art.
So so they you know, they put the problems in the movies.
They put the problems on tv shows.
And then you know, which is really powerful conservatives are terrible at that.
And so that's why I can say I'm Pure with confidence that if we want to fix a problem
that's affecting an entire city We have to look through scripture and we have to see.
Where that like like you say school voucher you say vouchers uh.
Like I guess the only question I want to want to go back to is like well Where in scripture do you get?
The idea of the government sphere right.
The government sphere where the government is is responsible for education.
You don't.
Right, you know it doesn't it's not in scripture.
Yeah, it's it's it's my position assumes it because that's our reality.
So you want to you want if you want to dismantle the reality?
That's another conversation.
Another conversation is this conversation?
And and and ruslan gives up the argument here the the the debate here.
The conversation is now over because he's saying You know my ideas what I think you should do.
It's not in the bible.
This is just this is just my idea.
And at that point it's like.
Later on in the video ruslan will say let me tell you my heart in this and um.
On gab yesterday.
I said ruslan with all due respect.
You seem like a nice guy.
You know i'd like to hang out with you one day probably and all that kind of stuff.
I probably enjoy myself.
Um, but I don't really care what your heart is and justice.
And that's i'm just keeping it 100.
I don't care one iota.
What your heart says we should do when it comes to justice.
What I care about and and neither should you care about what I my heart says like that's not what we're after because we
know.
From the scripture that the heart is desperately wicked, right?
We understand that and um, I I I don't care.
What what your heart says you shouldn't care what my heart says what we should both care about especially if we're both
professing christ.
Ruslan is that what does god say?
What does god say and I think that the temptation that you've uh given over yourself
to is that God doesn't really say Uh much on modern issues.
He doesn't really say a lot that that affects today.
And I think that's a lie.
I think that that's untrue.
You just don't like what he says about it because god does talk about education.
What does he say?
He says that educating the children is a responsibility Of the parents.
You don't like what that says.
You don't like that because you know, and this is this is this is where I think emotions are are are
a double -edged sword.
Uh ruslan, I think that that your your emotions are a double -edged sword and and not just you all of ours are.
Because we hear that from god.
And we go this is what we say.
We say god that might be good for me.
Because i'm a christian and i'm gonna raise my kids in the fear and admonition of the lord and all that kind of stuff.
But I have a neighbor over here god, you might not have known this but I got this neighbor over here.
Who's a drunk?
He's a drunk.
And he doesn't care about his kids.
And he doesn't raise his kids in the fear and admonition of the lord.
He doesn't do anything doesn't all he does is lift up the beer to his mouth and drink.
That's all he does.
You might not have known that god.
And so when you wrote this scripture, you didn't take that into account.
And so what we need to do what my heart says I want to care for those kids.
Is I want to tell the government to steal from everybody else in order to provide an education
for that kid because that's fair.
Because that's fair and you didn't address that in the bible god.
You didn't address it.
And so we're gonna take matters into our own hands and we're gonna go and we're gonna do that.
And it sounds really good because I have sympathy for that kid, too.
I have sympathy for that kid, too.
But the problem is that god does know about my neighbor who's a drunk.
Not only that he knew about drunks and pagans and idolaters and all that stuff back when he
told israel that the Responsibility for education is on the father and that's it.
And and and that's the end of it.
And so god knew about that and yet he still spoke on this topic, uh ruslan, which you're saying
he did not speak.
He did speak on this topic.
You just don't like what he said.
You think it's incomplete you think that you could do a better job In telling uh people who's
responsible for educating the kids.
And i'm here to tell you that that's that's a fantasy.
In fact, I would say you need to repent of that.
You need to repent of that.
So no, I don't want to work in the unbeliever system.
I want to change the system into a godly System, that's what I want.
And I think every christian should want this as well.
How does that little kid get educated?
Well, i'll tell you what man.
This is the hard work.
This is the hard work that god specifically tells us what to do.
He specifically tells us how to take care of this.
And here's how here's here's how you do it.
You go and you make disciples of all nations.
Baptizing them in the name of the father the son and of the holy spirit and teaching them to observe.
Everything that christ commanded not what men commanded not what men imagined in their hearts and in their
imaginations.
What christ commanded christ wrote the law of god?
He wrote it.
He wrote the law of god.
And so that's what we teach people to obey.
And if that requires that we change the system.
From a pagan system to a christian system then so Be it we do it god's way.
We preach that gospel to that drunk.
And we get involved in that drunk's life and we tell the drunk.
This is what the lord says.
This is what you should be doing.
I'll help you man.
I'll help you with your kid.
If you look we're homeschooling.
Anyway, you want you want to you want to send your kid over here?
We'll teach him as well.
Well, you know, i've got my church has a program, you know, whatever it is.
That's how we do it.
We don't need to steal from other people in order to accomplish this ruslan.
You see your mindset needs to change.
You need to get yourself sold out to what the scripture says and you gotta stop this because we
all have this in our hearts.
In some to some degree where we think we know better than god.
We think we know better.
Well, he couldn't have possibly have seen this modern context, uh in advance.
So we we know we we gotta call someone by their gender pronouns.
I mean, it's just hospitality, right?
We always think we know better man.
And that's that's sin man.
That's the sin nature in us.
You see god does speak about these things.
You just don't like what he has to say.
And guess who needs to change?
It's you.
You know, I don't.
I don't like sometimes what god has to say man sometimes to me, you know.
What it comes across that it comes across as a little bit harsh.
Um.
But that's something I need to mortify in myself because if god's word comes across a little too harsh for me
I'm the one who needs to change.
And so that's where i'll end this one man, you know, i'm gonna probably clip that last part that last part's important i'm gonna clip that last
part and put it separately, but Um, god bless you guys, thank you so much for all the comments.
I hope you enjoyed this.
Don't forget to tune in next week on thursday for ad on the fight laugh feast network.
