THE V@C!NE MANDATE IS OBVIOUSLY ILLEGAL (0:00-14:50)
No president has this power, and the use of this power should trouble literally everyone. The order's parameters are arbitrary and capricious. The enforcement mechanism ranges from unclear to impossible. The court decisions being used as justification regarded how citizens interact with their government and were legislative actions in states -- not dictates from one person in the federal government. The mandate is illegal, and the Courts must handle it.
WE NEED TO BE DWELLING ON THE PROVERBS (14:50-32:24)
We live in a dumb time. It seems like we're getting dimmer. The Proverbs, though, have responses for most of our cultural ills. In a time of isolation, the Proverbs offer wisdom on being a good friend. In a time of idleness, the Proverbs urge us on to hard work. In a moment of instant-everything, the Proverbs provide the wisdom to defer gratification. In an emotionally fraught world, the Proverbs remind us that what we dwell on is what we are and that we have the mandate to direct our thoughts.
IS EMPATHY A SIN? (32:34-End)
I was blown away recently that this question is being sincerely debated. As I heard the debate, though I found some nuances we need to talk out.
