[@TotallySharkyComplete]

Wow. Will is stunned many times in the interview...let that sink in.

[@marymack1]

Spencer Smith talks about the Fundamentalist/Modernist on his channel.

[@upwardthought]

I recently discovered you, and I'm enjoying working my way through your archive. Some questions on this one (I'll post as separate comments to declutter the chain).

John Moody's weighty quote... "Gone from the home, were the array of activities that defined the subsistance(or substance) family economy: sewing, canning, baking, laundering, most cooking, health care, care for the elderly, security, education, amusement, recreation, religious activities, all had been passed, or were passing, to industrial organized entities, be they corporate, state, or charitable in nature. American homes were merely parking places for parents and children who spent their active hours elsewhere." -Herbert Hoover's Report on Social Trends, 1933. A 40 year look on the changes sweeping the American Nation I did quite a bit of research and found both volumes of Hoover's Report on Social Trends. I don't think this is a quote, but someone else's quote summarizing the family section of the report. While looking through the report, I found that this seems to represent what is in it. If someone can show me where this is exactly, I'd be grateful.

1:30:30 It’s scary to see this same story play out over and over in modern Christians. More security. More social standing more stuff.... NOT greater biblical fidelity as he says. Fantastic points

[@upwardthought]

Do you see any danger in looking at all other sects that say they are Biblical and saying "I don't get it, how can they call themselves Christians and disagree with us so much?" How can anyone who says "my theology is the Bible" have any sufficient argument against anyone else who says the same? Wouldn't a more reasonable approach be to say "Lord, is it I?" In other words, to take doctrine one item at a time, argued specifically, and point out flaws in the same way? What I'm getting at: how can you be so sure that your own positions do not feature some holes that are as egregious to one at a distance as theirs are to you? And what recourse is there, other than to appeal to rational argument as a vehicle for better understanding God?

[@marymack1]

"Women of both genders"...LOL!

[@DogOneIsOpen]

Outstanding show. Thank you.

[@renofmen]

Thank you!!

[@cindydauphinais2110]

love what you guys have to say, but POOR boomers always get the blame for all the bad stuff today, from our own children. Though I agree with some of it, I do think that others should take some responsibility also.

[@renofmen]

If things have declined noticeably in the past 40 years, while Boomers have been in the societal driver’s seat, who should take responsibility?
