Things I Think About

"What's wrong with giving pornography to children?" is a question that many educators pondered as parents raged against them at school board meetings. While I was sleeping, sex education devolved from explaining biological differences between genders to explicit lessons from the Kama Sutra. (And I'm only slightly exaggerating.) As shocking as this is, apparently, its been going on in our school systems for some time. I'm so glad that Karen Schoen was my guest because she explained to me this trend, its origins and what's likely to happen next.  Karen Schoen has the foresight and courage to do what so many on the right are afraid to; call the enemy out by name and boldly. Spoiler alert - its communism.

My conversation with Steve LaTulippe (pronounced "LAH-too-LEAP") sent chills down my spine. By practicing evidence-based medicine, he dared to rebel against the leftist narrative concerning Covid and saved lives in the process. This put him out of favor with medical boards and certain politicians whose devotion to tyranny outweighed their allegiance to personal freedoms. As a result, Steve LaTulippe's life has been turned upside down and his very livelihood is at stake. His response? Keep fighting and inspiring resistance to medical tyranny wherever it rears its ugly head. In this David vs Goliath story its Steve LaTulippe against the world. By faith, he will be just as victorious as King David was. Tune in for a very special episode that in retrospect, I should have added the theme to Rocky in the background. This guy is a fighter. 

ABOUT MY GUEST

Steve LaTulippe MD is a physician board certified in Family Medicine, a retired United States Air Force officer, and a Bible college and seminary trained (Christian doctrine and Bible interpretation) ordained minister. His medical practice includes full-spectrum family medicine, pain and addiction medicine. His military service includes flying the KC-135 Stratotanker and and RF-4C phantom, then later serving as Chief of Medicine in the Oregon Air National Guard. He also has a background in microbiology. He enjoys backcountry mountain flying and the great outdoors.

Wow! Wow! A thousand times... Wow! I had one of the most unbelievable conversations today with IQ Rassooli about Islam, the Quran, and lesser known points about the Muslim faith. As I listened to IQ, I fact-checked him in real-time and was even more surprised to verify what he was sharing. Once the podcast was officially over, I asked even more questions and included them after the outro of the podcast, so listen to the very end to hear it all. This is a partial list of what we talked about. 

And soooo much more... I said on the program that I would look for someone more qualified than myself to debate IQ on the issues he posed. (As you can hear from the podcast, I was totally ignorant of the items he shared.) Time will tell if anyone will take up the offer. In fact, for the last 12 years, IQ has had over $1,500,000 worth of challenges to any Muslim who can prove him either wrong or untrue. So far, no takers and no Muslim willing to debate him. Once again, wow. 

ABOUT MY GUEST IN HIS OWN WORDS

IQ al Rassooli is a pen name to protect myself from being murdered for revealing the truth about Islam (the Cult of Muhammad). I was born in Baghdad Iraq, My mother tongue is Arabic.  My parents sent me to Europe to study where I was able to access libraries and get informed. I was intrigued to find out if the Biblical names and verses in Muhammad's Quran, corresponded with those in the Bible. I was utterly shocked to find out, not only did they not correspond but they are totally wrong, misleading, and uninformative. This launched me on a 30 years of research during which I had to study and absorb not only Muhammad's Quran but also the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament. By the time I finished, I had absolutely no doubt - based entirely on the Islamic sources - that Muhammad was a charlatan and a pathological liar and most important of all, that his god Allah is most definitely NOT the same as the God of Abraham, Moses and Jesus, thus instantly discrediting Muhammad as an alleged prophet as well as the impossibility of a divinely revealed Quran.
