gLENN lOURY AND jOHN mCWHORTER tRY TO uNDERSTAND wHAT wOILD HELP THE pOVERTY STRICKEN PARTS OF aMERICA

 Race, Nuclear War & Writing Advice | Glenn Loury & John McWhorter | The Glenn Show

wELL, i HAPPEN TO KNOW WHAT WOULD WORK, ARROGANT THOUGH i SUPPOSE THT SOUNDS.  aLL i'VE HEARD SO FAR IS jOHN mCwHORTER SAYING THAT "WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD CHANGE A CULTURE" BECUASE VARIOUS THINGS HAVE BEEN TRIED AND THE POVERTY PERSISTS.  THEY CAN IDENTIFY MANY OF THE ATTITUDES WITHIN THE POVERTY CULTURE THAT MAINTAIN THE POVERTY,  ATTITUDES TOWARD WORK, TOWARD WHITE SOCIETY IN THE CASE OF BLACKS AND TOWARD SUPPOSEDLY WHITE VALUES SUCH AS EDUCATION AND WHITE W

   OOPS TYPE THERE, NOT WHITE BUTG CERTTAIN KINDS OF WORK THAT ARE IDENTIFIED AS WHITE, ANYTHING BOOKIESH FOR INSANCE.  bOTH lOURY AND mCwHORTER ARE COLLEGE PROFESSORS, VERYB BOOKISH GUYES, BUT THEY CAN'T GET ANYWHERE WITH OTHER BLACKS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO GROW UP PREJUDICED AGAINST BOOKISHNESS.  

aLL GOOD OBSEVATIONS OF COURSE.  aND HE'S RIGHT THAT "WE" DON'T KOW HOW TO CHANGE A CULTURE.  iT CAN'T BE DONE BY ANY OF THE MEANS USUALLY TRIED AN D CONSIDERED.  

bURT.  wHAT DOES CHANGE CULTGURE, WHAT HAS IN THE PAST CHANGED CULTURE ON A MASSIVE SCALE.  cHANGED THE WHOLE OF WESTERN CIVILICAZATION INTO THE MUCH GREATERSOCIEYT THAN HAD EVER BEFORE EXISTED AND THEN aMERICA INTO AN EVEN BETTER MORE SUCCESSFUL MORE PROPEROUS SOCIETY, AND THAT IS cHRISTIANITY.  sURE THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER GREAT CDIVILIZATIONS BUT NOENE OF THEM COULD BE CHARACTERIZED AS ANYWHERE NEAR THE LEVEL OF LIBERTY AND EQUALITY FOR ALL AS THE WETSST FIRST OF ALL AND THEN aMERICA IN PARTICULAR ATTAINED.  tHOSE OTHER CIVILIZATION S ALL HAD A CLASS SOCIETY IN WHICH THE UPPORER POPULATION GREATLEY EXCEEDED THE FAR GREATER HUMBERS BELOW THEM IN EVERY BENEFIT THE SOCIETY HAD TO OFFER.  oNLYU cHRISTIANITY CAN CREATE A CULTURE THAT APPROACHES EQUALITY AND LIBERTY.  iF IT WERE PERFECTLY APPLIED, WHICH OF COURSE IN THIS FALLEN WORLD IT NEVER HAS BEEN AND NEVER WILL BE, THEN WE WOULD HAVE PERFECT EQUALITY AND LIBERTY, INDIVIDUAL SUCCESS AND GREAT GENERAL PROSPERYTY.  eVEN IN eUROPE WHERE IT WAS THE rOMAN cHURCH, HAMPERED BY ITS PAGAN ROOTS BUT STILL THE SOURCE OF SOME GENUINE cHRISTIAN INFLUENCE, THEY COULD ONLY GET SO FAR BECAUSE OF THAT PARTICULAR HANCIDAPT BUT IN aMERICA ITS' JUST ATH THERE ARE TOO MANY ANTIcHRISTIANS TO MAKE IT WORK AS IT COULD IN A PERFECT WORLD.

asO.  GO INTO THE POOR COMMUNITIES.  YES cHRISTAINITY IS PREACHED IN aPPALACHIA BUT SOMETHING IS LACKING THERE IN HOW IT IS LIVED.  THAT WOULD TAKE SOME STUDY AND ADJUSTMENT.  bUT IN THE BLACK COMMUNNITIES, WHERE YES cHRISTIANITY IS ALSO TO SOME EXTENT INFLUENCTIAL i THINK IT JUST NEEDS TO BE GREATLEY INCREASED AND TAUGHT MORE WIDELY AMONG THE PEOPLE.  tHE MORALITY ALONE BUT OF COURSE SALVATION PRIMARILY.   iT'S THE ETHICS OF LOVING YOUR HNNEIGHBOR, DOING NO VIOLENGCE TO YOUR NEIGHTBOR, THE PRINCIPLE OF COMING JUDGMENT FOR SIN, THE VALUE OF HARD WORK AND DOING ALL YOU DO WITH ENERGY AND HONESTY FOR THE lORD hIMSELF, IF ALL THAT AND MORE IS TAKEN TO HEART YOU COULD CHANGE THE CULTURE AND i DON'T THINK ANYTHING ELSE IS GOING TO CHANGE IT.  sURE, ALONG WITH THAT YOU SHOULD HAVE ALL KINDS OF PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO PUT PEOPLE TO WORK WHO ARE AT THE SAME TIME IMBIBING THE DOCTRINE, AL KINDS OF PROGRAMS WORKING WITH THE PEOPLE TO BENEFIT THEM IN VARIOUS WAYS.  THER EIS ILLITERACT AMONG THEM, SO ORGANIZE GROUPS TO TEACH READING.  oR DO IT ONE ON ONE,M ONE NEIGHBRO TEACHING ANOTHER.  mANY POSSIBILITIES.  lOURY AND mCwHORTER ARE AWARE OF A BLACK ORGANIZATION HEADED BY wOODSON OR SOME UCH NAME WHO WANTS TO DO THAT SORT OF THING WITHIN COMMUNNITIES.  gIVE IT IT A cHRISTIA FOUNDATION AND GO FOR IT.  

yOU NEED DEDICATED EVANGELISTS FOR STARTERS.wELL      wELL, i THINK THIS IS WHAT WE THE PEOPLOE OF aMERICA IN GENERAL NEED ANYWAY, A BIG REVIVAL OF cHRISTIANITY BECAUSE ALTHOUGH WE HAVE THE FOUNDATIONS STILL IN PLACE TO SOME EXTENT THROUGHOUT THE NATION THE MORAL INFLUENCE OF THE cHURCH IS JUST ABOUT NONEXISTENT THESE DAYS.  jUST CONSIDER THE IMMENSE CUORRUPTION THEY ARE DISCOVERING IN THE GOVERNMENT, THE doge TEAM i MEAN.  pEOPLE WHO FEAR gOD CAN'T DO SUCH THINGS, THEY JUST CAN'T.  aND i THINK IT'S PRETTY CLEAR THAT aMERICA BECAME THE POWERFUL PROSPEROUS NATION IT DID BECAUSE THE PEOPLE AT LARGE REALLY DID BELIEVE THE BIBLE, WHE WHOL STORY, THE DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF cHRUSTI  cHRIZT  cHRIST, BUT ALL THE MORAL TEACHINGS AS WELL FROM THE tEN cOMMANDMENTS THROUGH THE bOOK OF pROVERBS AND ALL THE STORIES IN THE oLD TESTEMTN MEANT TO TEACH US HOW THE mORAL lAW WORKS.   wE NEED A POWERFUL REVIVAL OF bIBLICAL TRUTH THROUGHJOUT aMERICAN SOCIETIY.  tRUMJ'S PRESIDENCY IS A VERY GOOD THING BUT WITHOUT A SOLID cHRISTIAN FOUNDATION IT CAN'T LAST VERY LONG IN THIS ALLEN WORLD.   so.  yES, i THINK AN INTENSIVE EVANGELISM IN THE BLACK COMMUNITIES, REALLY INTENSEIVE , AND IN aPPALACHIA TOO WHERE cHRISTIANITY EXISTS BUT IN A PRETTY ROTE AND STALE FORM, BRINGING IT ALL BACK TO LIVFE WITH ITS ORIGINAL SUPERNATURAL POWER, YES THAT WOULD CHANGE THE CULTURE TOWARD CONSTRUCTIVE PEACEMAKING NONVIOLENT NEIGHBOR HEALPING NEIGHBOR SORTS OF EFFECTS THAT SHOULD INCREASE EVERYBODY'S WEALTH AND WELLBEING IN ALL THE COMMUNITIES THAT EMBRACE THE TEACHING.  yuyES.tHEN ALOLNG WITH THAT DO ALL THIE THINGS lOURY SUGGESTS AS WELL.

nOW YOU CAN CHEW MY HEAD OFF.

iSRAEL AND tRUMP

 Peace & Security of Biblical Proportion

AN mARKELL'S uNDERSTANDING THE tIMES RADIO SHOW HAS HA A LOT OF GOOD PROGRAMS RECENTLY BUT i HAVE BEEN SO PREOCCUPIED WITH OTHER THIG S i HAVEN'T POSTED ANYTHING ABOUT THEM, AND NOW i'VE LOT TRACK OF THEM AND ALL i CAN SAY IS THAT i REMEMBER THAT THEY WERE GOOD AND LEAVE IT TO OTHERS TO TCHECK THEM OUT AT yOU TUBE OR AT HER WEBSITE oLIVE tREE vIEWS.COM    THE url ABOVE, HOWEVERR, GOES TO HER LATEST ONE FOR THIS WEEKENED AND IT'S ALL ABOUT HOW TRUMP IS AGAIN BEING THE BEST FRIEND OF iSRAEL AND WHAT HIS OFFER TO TAKE OVER Gaza MEANS.  

\

oNE THING THAT'S MENTIONED ON THIS EPISODE IS THAT tRUMP TENDS TO PUT HIS TRUST IN THE WRONG REPRESENTATIVES OF cHRISTIANITY.  tHE CHARISMATIC AND kINGDOM nOW GROUPS TEND TO ATHER ROUND HIM AND HE DOESN'[T HAVE THE DISCERNMENT TO TELL ONE GROUP FROM ALNOTHER SO HE NEEDS PRAYER TO BE LED BY THE RIGHT REPRESENTATIVES. INSTEAND.     \

hOWEVER, SOMEONE MENTIONED bILLY gRAHAM AS THAT RIGHT KIND OF REPRESENTATIVES AND THAT SET MY TEETH ON EDGE BECAUSE OF gRANHAMS'S APPEARANCE ON THE hOUR OF pOWER YEARS AGOVE, CAN'T REMEMBER THAT PASTOR'S NAME, DRAT, FAR WORSE THAN pAULA wHITE AND THE kINGDOM nOW PEOPLE, OR NEW aPOSTOLIC REFORMATION PEOPLE.  bUT gRAHAM ACTUALLY SAID THAT HE THINKS EVERYBODY WILL BE SAVED WHETHER THEY KNOW jESUS cHRISTA OR NOT.  bAD NEWS THERE.  i DON'T KNOW ABOUT fRANKLIN gRAHAM ON THAT ISSUE, JUST THAT HE'S GOOD ON A LOT OF THINGS JUST AS bILL gRAHAM WAS.   YOU CAN BE RIGHT ABOUT MOST THINGS AND WRONG ABOUT ONE LITTLE THING THAT'S REALLY A DOOZY OF A DENILAAL OF THOSH THE WHOLE RELIGION.

THEN i DO REMEMBER THAT A COUPLE OF EPISODES AGO

uH OH IT LOOKS LIKE i GOOGED SOMETHING UP.  wELL, i CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW.   i'M TRING TO REMEMBER WHAT THIS OTHER SHOW WAS ABOUT, OR AT LAS TTHIS ONE THING THT WAS SAID THAT SEEMED TO ME TO BE SO IMPORTANT AND i WANTED TO MENTION IT HERE.
