Hosea Contradictions: Bible Study by Atheists

[00:00:00] Welcome to Sacrilegious Discourse.

[00:00:01] For this is what the Sovereign Lord says!

[00:00:04] Why do you need prophets to tell people who you are and what you want?

[00:00:07] If you can justify everything that the God of the Bible has done, then you can justify any of your behavior.

[00:00:14] A lot of this mentality is trickling into what is now mainstream right-wing Christianity.

[00:00:20] I am capable of empathy greater than this God of the Bible.

[00:00:26] This is a Bible that they tell kids.

[00:00:29] This is the good Lord. This is the good book.

[00:00:32] He is fantasizing about murder, mass murder.

[00:00:48] Wife!

[00:00:49] Guess what we're doing now?

[00:00:50] We are finishing up Hosea.

[00:00:54] And so tonight I'm going to be right.

[00:00:56] Nope, because you're always wrong.

[00:00:59] Oh, fuck.

[00:01:00] Yep.

[00:01:01] Alright, well, so we're doing our contradictions episode.

[00:01:04] And a pop quiz!

[00:01:05] Yeah, so you got some good contradictions for us tonight?

[00:01:09] Yeah, I have seven.

[00:01:11] Seven contradictions.

[00:01:12] That's life.

[00:01:13] But it was a short book too.

[00:01:15] There were more, but a couple of them didn't apply because they didn't have-

[00:01:19] Right, they're just boring.

[00:01:21] Well, they only had New Testament stuff that we hadn't-

[00:01:24] Like, it was Hosea on one side and then-

[00:01:27] And Jesus on the other.

[00:01:28] Yeah.

[00:01:28] And I was like, we're not there yet.

[00:01:30] Right.

[00:01:30] So those don't count.

[00:01:31] And then there were a couple that we had talked about before that we were like, eh, that's not really-

[00:01:37] Yeah.

[00:01:38] That doesn't apply.

[00:01:39] No, I mean, we're trying to be fair-ish.

[00:01:42] Yes.

[00:01:42] You know, in our contradiction episodes.

[00:01:44] Mm-hmm.

[00:01:44] Mm-hmm.

[00:01:44] So we were leaving out some of the more dumb ones, basically.

[00:01:48] And we've talked about them before.

[00:01:49] So, I mean, sometimes I include them just as a reminder of-

[00:01:52] They can get a bit repetitive.

[00:01:54] Mm-hmm.

[00:01:54] It's much like the Bible.

[00:01:56] Right?

[00:01:56] You know?

[00:01:57] Kind of like how God hate loves everybody.

[00:02:00] But mostly hates.

[00:02:01] All right.

[00:02:02] Well, are you ready to do this?

[00:02:03] Sure as fuck am.

[00:02:04] Let's do it.

[00:02:04] Okie dokie.

[00:02:11] All right.

[00:02:12] We're getting into our Your Always Wrong Contradictions episode.

[00:02:17] All right.

[00:02:18] Followed by a pop quiz.

[00:02:19] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:02:20] Yeah.

[00:02:20] For Hosea.

[00:02:21] Right.

[00:02:22] I love hose head.

[00:02:25] You lie.

[00:02:26] I do.

[00:02:27] I'm a liar.

[00:02:28] All right.

[00:02:29] Are you ready for the questions?

[00:02:30] I am ready.

[00:02:31] Number one.

[00:02:31] Husband?

[00:02:32] Yes, wife?

[00:02:33] Is it okay to drink alcohol?

[00:02:35] You have three choices.

[00:02:37] Oh, fuck.

[00:02:37] I'm sick of answering this question.

[00:02:39] I know.

[00:02:39] Yeah.

[00:02:40] Your first choice is, depends who you are.

[00:02:43] Yeah.

[00:02:43] And your second one is, absolutely not.

[00:02:46] And your third one is, sure, whatever.

[00:02:48] Wine is fucking awesome.

[00:02:49] I'm going to go with the one I want.

[00:02:51] And then, sure, whatever.

[00:02:52] Wine is fucking awesome.

[00:02:53] Okay.

[00:02:54] Okay.

[00:02:54] Yeah.

[00:02:55] Yeah.

[00:02:55] Yeah.

[00:02:55] There's quite a few that support that.

[00:02:57] Okay.

[00:02:57] Okay.

[00:02:58] From Genesis, Deuteronomy, Judges, Proverbs, First Chronicles, Ecclesiastes, and Lamentations.

[00:03:04] Sure.

[00:03:04] So let me read a couple of these that say, yeah!

[00:03:06] Yeah!

[00:03:07] Wine is great!

[00:03:08] Okay.

[00:03:09] All right.

[00:03:09] May God give thee of the dew of heaven and the fatness of the earth and plenty of corn

[00:03:15] and wine.

[00:03:15] There he goes comparing them to dew again.

[00:03:17] Dew-dew.

[00:03:17] I'm just saying, you know.

[00:03:19] And that's from Genesis.

[00:03:20] Yeah.

[00:03:20] Thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God the tithe of thy corn and thy wine.

[00:03:25] That's from Deuteronomy.

[00:03:27] Okay.

[00:03:27] Wine, which cheereth God in men.

[00:03:30] I feel like that should be like a slogan for a-

[00:03:32] A shirt?

[00:03:33] No, a wine company.

[00:03:34] Yeah.

[00:03:35] Which cheereth God in men.

[00:03:37] Yeah.

[00:03:37] It's pretty good.

[00:03:38] It is pretty good.

[00:03:39] Yeah.

[00:03:39] It's from Judges.

[00:03:40] Okay.

[00:03:41] Drink of the wine which I have mingled.

[00:03:43] That's from Proverbs.

[00:03:45] I always mingle my wine.

[00:03:47] I don't know if I want the God-mingled wine, but you know, hey.

[00:03:50] And this is one I really, really like.

[00:03:53] I'm skipping a couple because, you know, I got enough here.

[00:03:56] Right.

[00:03:56] This one's from Lamentations.

[00:03:58] Ready?

[00:03:58] Mm-hmm.

[00:03:59] Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom.

[00:04:02] Thou shalt be drunken and shalt make thyself naked.

[00:04:06] Wow.

[00:04:07] Mm.

[00:04:07] Man, they're having a good old time there, huh?

[00:04:10] Yeah.

[00:04:10] But guess what, husband?

[00:04:12] I'm right.

[00:04:14] You're always wrong.

[00:04:16] Ah.

[00:04:16] Okay.

[00:04:17] So now your choices are, depends who you are, or absolutely not.

[00:04:22] I'm going to go with depends who you are.

[00:04:23] Okay.

[00:04:23] Well, not when you're going to church, according to Leviticus, do not drink wine, nor strong

[00:04:30] drink thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the fucking tabernacle of the congregation,

[00:04:36] lest ye die.

[00:04:37] Oh, wow.

[00:04:38] That's pretty strong words after they just got naked and drank wine.

[00:04:41] It shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.

[00:04:44] Huh.

[00:04:45] Yeah.

[00:04:45] Just so you know.

[00:04:46] Okay.

[00:04:47] Except for like the other times when it wasn't.

[00:04:49] Well, and except if you're Catholic and you drink wine as the blood of Christ.

[00:04:53] Right.

[00:04:53] Yeah.

[00:04:54] I mean...

[00:04:55] Not that wine.

[00:04:55] Yeah.

[00:04:56] That's symbolic.

[00:04:57] We didn't mean it there, just the other forever.

[00:05:00] The other forever.

[00:05:00] Yeah.

[00:05:01] Okay.

[00:05:02] So not if you go to church, not if you're a Nazarite, according to numbers.

[00:05:07] Oh.

[00:05:07] And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto

[00:05:13] them, He shall separate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar

[00:05:18] or wine, no vinegar of strong drink, neither shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat

[00:05:25] moist grapes or dried.

[00:05:28] That's really dumb.

[00:05:29] You stay away.

[00:05:29] So you can't even have raisins or grapes or anything.

[00:05:31] Mm-mm.

[00:05:31] You stay away from that shit.

[00:05:32] But I'm good with the vinegar.

[00:05:33] I'm not gonna drink vinegar.

[00:05:34] I misspoke.

[00:05:35] It's not vinegar.

[00:05:36] It's vinegar of wine.

[00:05:38] Oh.

[00:05:38] Or vinegar of strong drink.

[00:05:40] Okay, okay, okay.

[00:05:41] All right.

[00:05:41] It wasn't vinegar and wine.

[00:05:43] I got it.

[00:05:43] Yeah.

[00:05:44] So...

[00:05:44] Sure.

[00:05:48] Yes.

[00:05:48] According to that.

[00:05:49] According to that.

[00:05:51] Or if you're a priest or prophet, you better stop.

[00:05:54] Hmm.

[00:05:55] Okay.

[00:05:55] That's according to Isaiah.

[00:05:57] Who are the Nazarites again?

[00:05:58] Do you remember who the Nazarites are?

[00:06:01] They're Nazary.

[00:06:02] They're Nazary.

[00:06:03] They're Nazary.

[00:06:04] They're so Naz-ish.

[00:06:06] Okay.

[00:06:06] All right.

[00:06:07] I don't know.

[00:06:07] I'm gonna look it up real quick.

[00:06:09] They're pretty Naz-y.

[00:06:10] Yeah.

[00:06:10] Yeah.

[00:06:11] If you are a priest or a prophet, according to the book of Isaiah, you cannot drink wine

[00:06:16] because it says, but they have also erred through wine and through strong drink are out of the

[00:06:24] way.

[00:06:24] The priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink.

[00:06:28] They are swallowed up of wine.

[00:06:29] Mm-hmm.

[00:06:30] They are out of the way through strong drink.

[00:06:32] They err in vision.

[00:06:34] They stumble in judgment.

[00:06:35] Fuckers.

[00:06:36] Well, just for the record, Nazarites are people who took a special vow to dedicate themselves

[00:06:40] to God.

[00:06:41] Okay.

[00:06:42] Sure.

[00:06:43] So, those are the people that would be not allowed to drink.

[00:06:46] Or some of the people that are not allowed to drink.

[00:06:47] Right.

[00:06:48] Yeah, yeah.

[00:06:48] Yeah.

[00:06:48] If you're super religious, or you're a priest or a prophet, or you're going to church.

[00:06:53] Apparently, they cannot get haircuts either.

[00:06:55] Mm-hmm.

[00:06:56] And they are not allowed to contact the dead.

[00:06:58] Interesting.

[00:06:58] Oh, remember?

[00:06:59] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:07:00] They couldn't touch the dead.

[00:07:01] I forgot about that.

[00:07:02] Yeah.

[00:07:02] There was all kinds of fucking rules for it and shit.

[00:07:04] Yeah.

[00:07:04] I remember that now.

[00:07:06] Wow.

[00:07:06] Huh.

[00:07:07] Then were the good old days.

[00:07:08] That was a while back.

[00:07:09] Yeah.

[00:07:09] Yeah.

[00:07:09] Back when we were at the beginning of the Bible.

[00:07:11] Right.

[00:07:11] They kind of just disappeared into the beginning of the Bible.

[00:07:14] Exactly.

[00:07:15] Never heard from them again.

[00:07:16] Right.

[00:07:16] What the fuck's a Nazarite?

[00:07:17] I forgot.

[00:07:18] Because wine.

[00:07:18] Right.

[00:07:19] That's the entire...

[00:07:20] Yeah.

[00:07:21] See?

[00:07:22] All right.

[00:07:22] But guess what?

[00:07:23] What?

[00:07:23] You're always wrong.

[00:07:25] All right.

[00:07:26] Can they drink wine?

[00:07:28] Sometimes, apparently.

[00:07:29] Absolutely not.

[00:07:30] Okay?

[00:07:30] Oh, wait.

[00:07:31] I thought we just did the absolutely nots.

[00:07:32] No.

[00:07:32] Oh, those were the sometimes.

[00:07:34] Oh, those were the depends who you are.

[00:07:35] Oh, okay, okay, okay.

[00:07:36] This is absolutely not ever.

[00:07:38] Got it.

[00:07:38] Absolutely fucking not.

[00:07:39] Got it.

[00:07:40] Yeah, yeah.

[00:07:41] According to Proverbs, wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging and whosoever is deceived

[00:07:46] thereby is not wise.

[00:07:48] Goddamn mocker wine.

[00:07:50] Be not among wine bibbers.

[00:07:52] Don't be a wine bibber, fuckers.

[00:07:54] Don't be among the wine bibber.

[00:07:56] Don't be among the wine bibbers.

[00:07:58] Yeah.

[00:07:58] I'm a wine bibber.

[00:07:59] Yeah, I guess I'm not supposed to be among ya.

[00:08:01] Well, I mean, you know.

[00:08:03] We do like to commingle.

[00:08:06] For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty.

[00:08:09] That's both of those were according to Proverbs.

[00:08:12] Okay.

[00:08:12] This one's according to Isaiah.

[00:08:14] Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning that they may follow strong drink that continue

[00:08:19] until night till wine inflamed them.

[00:08:22] You know, I got to give them props.

[00:08:23] They woke up early in the morning to get that start on the day of drinking.

[00:08:27] Right.

[00:08:27] You know, they made a point to get out of bed and start something.

[00:08:33] Well, this one, the Isaiah one to me seems more like it's addressed to people that drink

[00:08:38] heavily.

[00:08:39] Not like don't drink at all.

[00:08:41] No, I know.

[00:08:41] Yeah.

[00:08:41] I was kind of joking a little bit.

[00:08:44] And actually, the next one from Isaiah kind of mimics that.

[00:08:48] Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine and men of strength to mingle strong drink.

[00:08:53] Yeah.

[00:08:54] I think that was it.

[00:08:55] Were those both from Isaiah?

[00:08:56] Mm-hmm.

[00:08:57] Okay.

[00:08:57] I distinctly remember a section where they were talking about strong drinkers more than

[00:09:03] just, you know, alcohol in general.

[00:09:05] So I, you know, obviously that's a bad thing.

[00:09:09] You don't want to drink too much alcohol ever because that's not good.

[00:09:12] Right.

[00:09:13] And that's why we have programs to get people from, to stop drinking too much alcohol.

[00:09:17] Right.

[00:09:17] It's bad for your liver at the very least.

[00:09:19] Right.

[00:09:19] Right.

[00:09:19] And no judgment if you, I mean, we, we've all known or, or have been an alcoholic.

[00:09:25] I personally, not me, but I think you could have gone down that route.

[00:09:29] I have alcoholism in, it runs in my family and I have to be very careful with the choices

[00:09:36] that I make because I am more inclined to that.

[00:09:40] You can't, you don't know your limits.

[00:09:42] Correct.

[00:09:42] You don't care about your limits.

[00:09:44] Your limits don't matter.

[00:09:45] Once I have a drink.

[00:09:46] They're just non-existent.

[00:09:47] Yeah.

[00:09:47] Once I have a drink, I will just not stop.

[00:09:50] Right.

[00:09:50] So if I'm going to drink, I have to be very, very active in a plan of how that is going

[00:09:59] to work beforehand.

[00:10:01] Right.

[00:10:01] Otherwise you might end up hanging out of a car halfway or something.

[00:10:04] Shut up.

[00:10:05] Shut up.

[00:10:08] Well, the last one is from Hosea.

[00:10:11] Hosea.

[00:10:12] Uh huh.

[00:10:12] And that one says wine and new wine.

[00:10:15] Take away the heart.

[00:10:17] Okay.

[00:10:18] You know?

[00:10:18] Yeah.

[00:10:19] Cause no, no, no.

[00:10:21] They take away the heart.

[00:10:22] Not like your physical heart.

[00:10:24] I figured like your, your soul, your being, your, your essence.

[00:10:29] Like it makes you stupid and you're not who you are.

[00:10:32] But sometimes, okay.

[00:10:34] I can see that.

[00:10:36] Look, some people, different people react differently to alcohol.

[00:10:39] Right.

[00:10:39] You're saying nuance.

[00:10:41] The Bible doesn't do that.

[00:10:42] Oh.

[00:10:43] Okay.

[00:10:44] The Bible generalizes.

[00:10:45] Everybody sucks across the board.

[00:10:47] Well, I'm just saying that some people can give extra spirit to.

[00:10:52] Mm.

[00:10:52] Extra.

[00:10:53] Extra heart.

[00:10:55] Cause you know, those are the ones that it's, it, you know, the crier, right?

[00:10:59] They're, they're awesome.

[00:11:00] I love the crier.

[00:11:01] They're like, Oh, I love you so much.

[00:11:04] They love everybody.

[00:11:05] Everybody.

[00:11:06] Right.

[00:11:06] It's amazing.

[00:11:07] And then there's the blustering asshole.

[00:11:10] And right.

[00:11:11] And, um, he's the guy who you already knew he was a blustering asshole before he drank.

[00:11:17] Yeah.

[00:11:18] Just now he's louder and, and he punches walls.

[00:11:20] Right.

[00:11:21] Right.

[00:11:21] Possibly runs through a window.

[00:11:23] Right.

[00:11:24] I've seen that.

[00:11:24] Yeah.

[00:11:25] Insists.

[00:11:25] He's fine.

[00:11:26] You're just being a bitch.

[00:11:28] Right.

[00:11:28] And then he, you know, drives recklessly and blames the other drivers on the road.

[00:11:33] But somehow that motherfucker never crashes.

[00:11:36] Right.

[00:11:37] I hate that guy.

[00:11:38] Yeah.

[00:11:39] He never gets caught either.

[00:11:40] I mean, you know, they do sometimes, but not enough.

[00:11:45] Not enough.

[00:11:46] I hate that guy.

[00:11:46] Yeah.

[00:11:46] Just saying.

[00:11:47] I agree.

[00:11:48] Yeah.

[00:11:48] All right.

[00:11:49] Number two.

[00:11:51] Before we move on.

[00:11:52] Yeah.

[00:11:52] Drink responsibly, everybody.

[00:11:54] Please.

[00:11:54] You know, there's Ubers.

[00:11:56] There's a lot of things, you know, if you like to drink and I like to drink sometimes

[00:12:00] wife likes to drink, you know, it just don't do it dumb.

[00:12:05] Have a buddy.

[00:12:06] Yeah.

[00:12:06] Have a, you know, designated driver.

[00:12:09] In this day and age, there's no reason to drive drunk.

[00:12:12] Right.

[00:12:13] Ever.

[00:12:14] Ever.

[00:12:14] Drop your keys at the door, bro.

[00:12:16] Right.

[00:12:16] You know, this is my public service announcement for the day.

[00:12:19] Yeah.

[00:12:19] So have a plan going in.

[00:12:21] Right.

[00:12:21] And even if you go in with the plan not to drink and then, you know, you get peer pressured

[00:12:25] into it, make your plan right then and there.

[00:12:28] Like, okay, I wasn't going to drink, but now I'm going to drink.

[00:12:31] But before I take this first sip, I am making the plan.

[00:12:34] How am I getting home?

[00:12:35] Because it clearly isn't the other way I came.

[00:12:39] Right.

[00:12:39] Right.

[00:12:39] Yeah.

[00:12:40] Just be smart about it.

[00:12:41] Okay.

[00:12:42] Number two.

[00:12:43] Did God commend or condemn Jehu for the killings at Jezreel?

[00:12:49] Here are your choices.

[00:12:51] Okay.

[00:12:52] Always celebrate murder or murder is very naughty.

[00:12:57] Hmm.

[00:12:58] I, I'm just, I'm basing this off of God.

[00:13:02] Mm-hmm.

[00:13:02] I'm going to go with always celebrate.

[00:13:04] Always celebrate.

[00:13:05] Sure.

[00:13:05] He's a murderous fuck.

[00:13:06] Yeah.

[00:13:07] Yeah.

[00:13:08] Um, according to second Kings, um, two different verses support that.

[00:13:12] Huh?

[00:13:13] Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, thou shalt smite the house of Ahab, thy master, that I

[00:13:18] may avenge the blood of my servants and prophets and the blood of all the servants of the Lord

[00:13:24] at the hand of Jezebel.

[00:13:25] For the whole house of Ahab shall perish and I will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against

[00:13:33] the wall.

[00:13:34] Jeez.

[00:13:34] I will kill you if you pee on my tent.

[00:13:36] Right.

[00:13:37] Yeah.

[00:13:37] Yes.

[00:13:38] Always, always murder.

[00:13:39] I, I think part of my, um, choice here was based on the fact that you remember, I

[00:13:44] think it was like Psalms or Proverbs.

[00:13:46] I can't remember which one, but there was a, there was a section where they were like,

[00:13:49] uh, dancing in their enemies blood.

[00:13:51] Yes.

[00:13:52] Or the dogs were in it.

[00:13:53] I don't know something.

[00:13:54] It was really disgusting.

[00:13:55] And it was bad and wrong.

[00:13:57] Yeah.

[00:13:57] But, but there's obviously some like glee and enjoyment of murder.

[00:14:03] Yes.

[00:14:03] The fact that we both dug glee out.

[00:14:05] Yeah.

[00:14:06] They're so excited.

[00:14:07] They're so fucking happy about kill, kill, kill.

[00:14:11] Right.

[00:14:11] Yeah.

[00:14:12] Okay.

[00:14:12] So the other one says, and the Lord said unto Jehu, because thou has done well in executing

[00:14:18] that which is right in mine eyes and has done unto the house of Ahab, according to all

[00:14:24] that was in mine heart, the children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne

[00:14:30] of Israel.

[00:14:31] Hmm.

[00:14:31] Hmm.

[00:14:32] I'm so fucking glad that you killed the, um, the people like good job.

[00:14:38] Jay who did a great murdery thing at Jezreel.

[00:14:42] Yeah.

[00:14:42] I'm so very happy for you, but guess what?

[00:14:45] What?

[00:14:45] You're always wrong.

[00:14:47] This is, this is from Hosea, right?

[00:14:49] Cause I don't remember this in Hosea, but okay.

[00:14:51] Murder is very naughty.

[00:14:52] Got it.

[00:14:53] Yeah.

[00:14:53] Yeah.

[00:14:53] So this is from Hosea chapter one, which is probably why you don't remember it.

[00:14:57] Right.

[00:14:58] And the Lord said unto him, call his name Jezreel for yet a little while, and I will avenge

[00:15:04] the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu and will cause to cease the kingdom of the

[00:15:10] house of Israel.

[00:15:11] That is completely opposite.

[00:15:12] That's completely opposite.

[00:15:14] Exactly.

[00:15:14] That's a very strong contradiction.

[00:15:16] Yeah.

[00:15:16] That's a big one.

[00:15:17] Yeah.

[00:15:17] Like that's night and day.

[00:15:19] Right.

[00:15:19] Okay.

[00:15:20] Weird.

[00:15:21] It is very weird.

[00:15:23] Yeah.

[00:15:23] I don't quite understand.

[00:15:25] It's almost like God doesn't know what the fuck he's doing and people wrote this.

[00:15:31] Right.

[00:15:32] Right.

[00:15:32] Yeah.

[00:15:32] There was, there was obviously different opinions about what happened.

[00:15:36] That definitely supports the theory that men wrote this.

[00:15:41] Maybe they got the message from God.

[00:15:42] I don't know.

[00:15:43] I'm not here to argue.

[00:15:44] I am here to argue that, but you know, whatever for the purposes of argument.

[00:15:49] Right.

[00:15:49] Right.

[00:15:50] Clearly different people, wherever they got their message from, they got different messages.

[00:15:56] Right.

[00:15:56] Which means that God is not an effective fucking speaker.

[00:15:59] Right.

[00:16:00] Pretending that God exists.

[00:16:02] Right.

[00:16:02] You know?

[00:16:02] Okay.

[00:16:03] Moving on.

[00:16:04] Number three.

[00:16:05] Yeah.

[00:16:06] Is it wrong to have sex outside of marriage?

[00:16:10] Um.

[00:16:10] Do you want your two choices?

[00:16:12] I'm going to go with no, but you can give me them if you want to still.

[00:16:16] Okay.

[00:16:16] Well, here's your two choices.

[00:16:17] Yeah.

[00:16:18] Is it wrong to have sex outside of marriage?

[00:16:20] Yeah.

[00:16:21] Okay.

[00:16:21] Yeah.

[00:16:22] Or not if God tells you to do it.

[00:16:27] Oh, so wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

[00:16:29] No, this is, this is, I, so there's all these instances, especially in the older portions

[00:16:34] of the Bible where God's like, go have sex with that concubine or go have sex with that

[00:16:39] slave or go have whatever anybody, but your wife, apparently because she can't give you

[00:16:43] a child.

[00:16:44] Yeah.

[00:16:44] So then it's just fine to go have sex outside of marriage.

[00:16:47] But that's not what Christians would have you.

[00:16:51] If you are thinking of when Jacob, uh, fucked his concubines, he was technically married

[00:16:58] to them because he was married to, uh, Leah, which was the wife that he didn't want.

[00:17:05] And then, you know, worked seven more years on lay bands farm and then married.

[00:17:10] Um, Rachel was the one that he actually had wanted in the, but they tossed in a few extra

[00:17:14] ones.

[00:17:15] They did, but technically those chicks belong to him.

[00:17:19] Okay.

[00:17:20] There's, there's a issue.

[00:17:23] I, I agree with you, but I'm, I'm pointing out how it was.

[00:17:28] It would be viewed because it was quote unquote in the family.

[00:17:33] It, it does not, it was not culturally inappropriate.

[00:17:37] It would not have been considered sex outside of marriage because the handmaids of his two wives

[00:17:45] did not fully count as people.

[00:17:48] Okay.

[00:17:48] So again, we're, we're discussing that.

[00:17:52] So we went from discuss, so we're going to get back to it here in a second, but we went

[00:17:56] from discussing sex in or outside of marriage as being okay or not to then incorporating

[00:18:02] slaves and, um, and, uh, concubines and polygamy and ownership of people, which is slavery.

[00:18:10] So yeah.

[00:18:11] Okay.

[00:18:12] Slaves and polygamy.

[00:18:13] Yeah.

[00:18:13] Yeah.

[00:18:14] We, that, that's all deemed okay at some part of the Bible because of God.

[00:18:21] Yes.

[00:18:21] Not because, not because these people just really wanted to have sex with other people,

[00:18:25] but God actually condones these actions in portions of the Bible.

[00:18:29] And that is disturbing.

[00:18:31] It sure as fuck is.

[00:18:33] Look, I'm not saying whatever.

[00:18:35] If you have a consensual marriage where you have multiple partners or even multiple wives,

[00:18:41] I don't have necessarily a problem with that.

[00:18:44] Consent.

[00:18:45] As long as it's consensual.

[00:18:47] Consent in all parties, but more than that informed consent.

[00:18:51] Right.

[00:18:52] Yes.

[00:18:52] Yes.

[00:18:53] Consent is important because it's not a forced consent.

[00:18:56] Well, informed meaning that you have seen outside of the culture in which you were brought

[00:19:03] up and you do understand that you don't actually have to marry somebody who has more than one

[00:19:10] wife.

[00:19:10] Right.

[00:19:11] Like that's what I mean by informed consent, that it wasn't just a social thing that what

[00:19:15] I thought that's what I was supposed to do.

[00:19:16] I didn't know.

[00:19:17] Right.

[00:19:18] Right.

[00:19:18] Yeah.

[00:19:19] Okay.

[00:19:19] Sorry.

[00:19:20] So back to, um, I'm going to go with, yes, it's okay to have sex outside of marriage.

[00:19:24] Of course it is.

[00:19:25] Right.

[00:19:25] Um, no, it's wrong to have sex outside them outside of marriage unless God tells you to

[00:19:31] do it.

[00:19:32] Okay.

[00:19:32] So what are you, what are your answers?

[00:19:35] You have, yes, it's wrong or it's not wrong.

[00:19:39] If God tells you to do it, it's not wrong.

[00:19:41] If God tells you to do it.

[00:19:42] Okay.

[00:19:42] Sorry.

[00:19:43] I wanted to make sure I picked the right one.

[00:19:45] Okay.

[00:19:45] So yeah, both of these come from Hosea and the Lord said to Hosea, go take unto the

[00:19:51] a wife of whoredoms.

[00:19:53] Oh, cause you know, she was fucking.

[00:19:55] Yeah.

[00:19:55] Yeah.

[00:19:56] Yeah.

[00:19:56] I was from chapter one.

[00:19:57] And then in chapter three, then the Lord said unto me, love a woman, beloved of her

[00:20:02] friend yet an adulteress.

[00:20:05] Okay.

[00:20:06] She was fucking left and right.

[00:20:08] Right.

[00:20:08] I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna take slight issue with this.

[00:20:13] Mm-hmm.

[00:20:13] And that's because the entire portion of Hosea where we were discussing Gomer was more of

[00:20:20] a metaphor for Israel the entire time, more so than it was about his wife.

[00:20:25] Like in my estimation.

[00:20:27] Like, did this story actually happen?

[00:20:29] Right.

[00:20:29] Yeah.

[00:20:30] Yeah.

[00:20:30] Right.

[00:20:30] Now again, that's, that's debatable, I guess.

[00:20:33] But whether it happened or not, it's a story saying that he needed to fuck his wife who

[00:20:41] was fucking around.

[00:20:44] Adulteress.

[00:20:44] Right.

[00:20:44] Yeah.

[00:20:44] No, I get it.

[00:20:45] So, and she was supposed to represent Israel, but you know, again, God can change hearts.

[00:20:51] So you're saying that God is allowing for Gomer to be redeemed through Hosea because whatever.

[00:20:58] Mm-hmm.

[00:20:58] Okay.

[00:20:59] Yeah.

[00:20:59] All right.

[00:20:59] I just want to make sure I was clear on the, how God condoned sex outside of the marriage.

[00:21:03] Yeah.

[00:21:04] Okay.

[00:21:04] Because God told Gomer, go fuck.

[00:21:07] And then he told, um, Hosea, go marry that whore.

[00:21:11] Okay.

[00:21:12] And then go buy her back from her dude.

[00:21:15] Did God tell Gomer to fuck?

[00:21:16] I don't remember that happening.

[00:21:18] I don't know.

[00:21:18] I thought she just did.

[00:21:19] And then God told Hosea to go marry her.

[00:21:21] I have to imagine though, because at one point she did go back, like after they had all

[00:21:26] those kids.

[00:21:27] Yeah.

[00:21:27] She did go back to the whoredom because he had to go, um, buy her back.

[00:21:33] Right.

[00:21:34] No, I, I recall that, but I don't recall God telling her to go have sex.

[00:21:39] I just, I don't know.

[00:21:39] I just have to imagine that in order for that story to hold any kind of water.

[00:21:46] Why would we assume that it does?

[00:21:48] You're right.

[00:21:49] That was a dumb, dumb thing to say.

[00:21:52] Be that as it may, you're always wrong.

[00:21:55] Okay.

[00:21:55] Of course it's wrong to have sex outside of marriage.

[00:21:57] Right, right, right.

[00:21:58] Because according to both Exodus and Deuteronomy, thou shalt not commit adultery, you asshole.

[00:22:05] Oh man.

[00:22:05] Okay.

[00:22:06] Yeah.

[00:22:06] So get it right.

[00:22:07] I believe that one is actually in the 10 commandments.

[00:22:09] Yeah.

[00:22:10] So yeah.

[00:22:11] Don't do those big ones, you know?

[00:22:12] Yeah.

[00:22:12] Okay.

[00:22:13] It just depends on how you define marriage.

[00:22:15] And isn't it funny that Christians get to move the goalpost?

[00:22:18] Well, and honestly, the Bible struggles with defining marriage.

[00:22:21] Yeah.

[00:22:22] Because it doesn't really do it.

[00:22:23] Exactly.

[00:22:24] Exactly.

[00:22:25] Yeah.

[00:22:25] At one point it was perfectly fine to have a thousand wives, but don't you dare be gay.

[00:22:32] Like, I'm sorry, what?

[00:22:33] Well, even the gay thing in the Bible is a little bit questionable as to its relevance.

[00:22:39] That's what they mean by that.

[00:22:40] Right, right.

[00:22:41] Right?

[00:22:41] Yeah.

[00:22:42] The whole thing is just like, you guys are so ancient.

[00:22:46] Well, you know, part of what I take issue with is the inability to draw, you know, conclusions

[00:22:55] from what is in the Bible to relate to society today.

[00:22:59] Yeah.

[00:22:59] It is not relatable.

[00:23:01] No.

[00:23:01] It is not relevant.

[00:23:02] And it makes no fucking sense.

[00:23:05] None.

[00:23:05] For what the reality of humanity is in the 21st century.

[00:23:10] Right.

[00:23:10] Because these people, they herded goats and they did not have cell phones or Netflix.

[00:23:16] Yeah.

[00:23:17] And cars.

[00:23:18] And they didn't know that a dude named Elon Musk someday was going to make ugly ass trucks.

[00:23:24] And robots.

[00:23:25] And robots that can serve drinks.

[00:23:27] Right.

[00:23:27] She just fucking announced that shit.

[00:23:29] There's house robots that are going to be coming out for apparently like 20,000 to

[00:23:33] 30,000 bucks.

[00:23:34] Yeah.

[00:23:35] They look kind of like the ones that were in the, what was the movie?

[00:23:41] I robot.

[00:23:42] Yeah.

[00:23:43] And they look like a cross between those and Robo cop.

[00:23:47] Yeah.

[00:23:48] Yeah.

[00:23:48] Right.

[00:23:49] Yeah.

[00:23:49] And if you ever played a, well, no, they aren't there.

[00:23:53] Yeah.

[00:23:53] Nevermind.

[00:23:53] Yeah.

[00:23:53] Those, those would be a good comparison.

[00:23:55] So, but it's, it's on guys.

[00:23:57] It's on the end is, is near.

[00:23:59] The end is nigh.

[00:24:01] And it's not Bill Nigh.

[00:24:03] Right.

[00:24:03] It's no, it's, it's like they didn't even watch Terminator or the matrix.

[00:24:08] Like what the fuck?

[00:24:10] I just, I, I really hope they got the three laws in there.

[00:24:13] I bet they didn't.

[00:24:14] And for those of you who don't know, those are the three laws of robotics, which are

[00:24:17] set in motion by Isaac Asimov.

[00:24:20] Yeah.

[00:24:21] Um, it's yeah.

[00:24:23] Um, so it, and I don't, I'm not going to even try because I'll butcher it.

[00:24:28] So, but just look it up.

[00:24:30] It's famous.

[00:24:30] And it has to do with the robots not being able to kill their owner humans and, um, by

[00:24:38] either action or inaction.

[00:24:41] And as a matter of fact, they need to go so far as to do their best to save them or something

[00:24:45] to that effect.

[00:24:46] Right.

[00:24:46] Like, yeah, I totally butchered it.

[00:24:48] It's an important piece of, uh, of, uh, programming that needs to be in there somewhere.

[00:24:53] Super, super important.

[00:24:54] Yeah.

[00:24:54] I'm going to guess that they skipped right over that.

[00:24:57] Probably.

[00:24:57] He seems like a skip to the end of the book kind of guy to me.

[00:25:00] Right?

[00:25:00] Yeah.

[00:25:01] Yeah.

[00:25:01] But, but hopefully his, his engineers were like, no, those need to be in there.

[00:25:04] Mm.

[00:25:04] Mm.

[00:25:05] So we'll see, I guess.

[00:25:07] I have not heard of anybody who stands up to him and keeps his job.

[00:25:11] These fucking robots look like humans.

[00:25:13] I mean, like the, they're human ish.

[00:25:14] They're shaped human.

[00:25:17] They're shaped human.

[00:25:17] They're apparently going to be able to cook and clean and take care of your kids and do

[00:25:20] all the things.

[00:25:21] Like they showed.

[00:25:21] Serve you dinner, serve you food, serve you drinks.

[00:25:23] They showed one like opening the door and leaning down to pick up the Amazon package

[00:25:28] and bring in the mail.

[00:25:30] Right.

[00:25:30] And they showed another one sitting at the family table playing go fish with the fam.

[00:25:34] Yeah.

[00:25:34] Like what?

[00:25:35] I mean, look at, at the same time, I'm kind of like terrified of what's going to happen.

[00:25:40] I still want one.

[00:25:41] Kind of.

[00:25:42] Okay.

[00:25:43] Look, I mean, I got a Roomba, right?

[00:25:44] Yeah.

[00:25:45] Who wouldn't want a fucking robot that cooks for you?

[00:25:47] Well, and here's the thing.

[00:25:48] I'm here.

[00:25:49] So the cooking ain't that bad.

[00:25:51] Okay.

[00:25:51] Right.

[00:25:51] But our laundry is down in the basement and not just down in the basement.

[00:25:57] It's down the basement and all the way around to the other side of the basement.

[00:26:02] Right.

[00:26:02] Like you have to basically walk a circle along the edge of the outside wall to get to

[00:26:10] the end, which is basically where you started, but it's on the other side of the wall.

[00:26:14] Right.

[00:26:14] Yeah.

[00:26:15] So if I had a robot and he did nothing but the laundry.

[00:26:19] You'd be happy.

[00:26:19] I would be happy with that.

[00:26:21] Yeah.

[00:26:21] You know, especially because.

[00:26:22] You've been struggling with stairs lately.

[00:26:23] I've been struggling with stairs.

[00:26:25] I'm kind of not supposed to be going up and down stairs and that's a long staircase.

[00:26:30] It is.

[00:26:30] So every time I go down, like I hold on to the railing and I take one step at a time.

[00:26:37] Right.

[00:26:37] You know, I always like give a peace sign before I go down.

[00:26:42] Like, okay, this could be it.

[00:26:45] I've taken my life into my own hands here.

[00:26:47] Right.

[00:26:47] This might be the end.

[00:26:49] Text everybody hitting the stairs.

[00:26:51] Love everybody.

[00:26:51] Yeah.

[00:26:53] So, yeah, I'd have one of his stupid robots, even having watched the Terminator and the

[00:26:59] Matrix.

[00:27:00] Right.

[00:27:00] Yeah.

[00:27:01] Like I said, I'm torn.

[00:27:02] I know.

[00:27:02] But, you know.

[00:27:03] The science person in me, like my science heart is against, it's railing against my common

[00:27:10] sense.

[00:27:11] Like, don't be stupid.

[00:27:13] Right.

[00:27:14] But it would be neat to have a robot, right?

[00:27:17] Right.

[00:27:17] Yeah.

[00:27:17] Yeah.

[00:27:18] So I guess I get why they built them.

[00:27:20] But see, I resent them because if they hadn't built them, then I wouldn't be in this like

[00:27:24] moral quandary.

[00:27:26] Right.

[00:27:27] Like I blame them.

[00:27:28] Of course.

[00:27:29] All right.

[00:27:29] So number four, will Ephraim return to Egypt?

[00:27:33] Yes or no?

[00:27:34] Those are your choices.

[00:27:35] They didn't.

[00:27:36] So no.

[00:27:37] No, no.

[00:27:38] According to Hosea chapter 11, Ephraim shall not return into the land of Egypt.

[00:27:44] That's the correct one.

[00:27:46] Okay.

[00:27:46] But guess what?

[00:27:47] I'm not wrong.

[00:27:49] You're always wrong.

[00:27:51] Yeah.

[00:27:52] Because according to Hosea chapter eight, Ephraim shall return to Egypt.

[00:27:56] And we kind of talked about the lost tribes of Israel.

[00:27:59] So, I mean, there is still people.

[00:28:02] There are still people out there that are holding out hope that these tribes of Israel

[00:28:06] will end up back in Israel.

[00:28:09] Right.

[00:28:09] So, I don't know how that happens at this point.

[00:28:12] But they're talking about them returning to Egypt in this question.

[00:28:15] Oh.

[00:28:15] Yeah.

[00:28:16] Will Ephraim return to Egypt?

[00:28:18] Okay.

[00:28:19] So.

[00:28:19] I gotcha.

[00:28:20] Yeah.

[00:28:20] Okay.

[00:28:21] Okay.

[00:28:24] Okay.

[00:28:24] Okay.

[00:28:25] Both.

[00:28:25] Both.

[00:28:26] Both.

[00:28:27] All right.

[00:28:28] Number five.

[00:28:28] Is God merciful?

[00:28:30] We've answered this one a thousand times.

[00:28:32] No, no, no.

[00:28:33] Okay.

[00:28:33] Yeah.

[00:28:33] Your answers are yes or nope.

[00:28:37] Him's a sumbitch.

[00:28:38] He's a sumbitch.

[00:28:39] Him's a sumbitch.

[00:28:40] Yep.

[00:28:40] Yeah.

[00:28:41] All right.

[00:28:41] So here we go down the list.

[00:28:43] I'm going to buzz through these because there's a lot that prove that he's a sumbitch.

[00:28:46] Yeah.

[00:28:46] Okay.

[00:28:47] Yep.

[00:28:47] Exodus chapter 34.

[00:28:49] The Lord God visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and upon the children's

[00:28:53] children unto the third and to the fourth generation.

[00:28:56] That's so fucked up.

[00:28:58] According to numbers.

[00:29:00] And the Lord said to Moses, take all the heads of the people and hang them up before the Lord

[00:29:04] against the sun that the fierce anger of the Lord may be turned away from Israel.

[00:29:08] That's fun.

[00:29:09] I love hanging up the dead, the heads of the people I've conquered.

[00:29:13] Yeah.

[00:29:14] That's very exciting.

[00:29:15] Right.

[00:29:15] Right.

[00:29:16] Again, according to Deuteronomy, and thou shalt consume all the people which the Lord thy God

[00:29:21] shall deliver thee.

[00:29:22] Thine eye shall have no pity upon them.

[00:29:24] Yeah.

[00:29:25] Kill them all.

[00:29:26] Right.

[00:29:26] Murder's always good.

[00:29:27] Love it.

[00:29:28] Yeah.

[00:29:28] According to 1 Samuel, now go and smite Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have and

[00:29:34] spare them not, but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling.

[00:29:40] So definitely go out and kill all the babies.

[00:29:43] That is so fun and nice of him.

[00:29:46] He's just not a sumbitch at all.

[00:29:48] Don't do that.

[00:29:49] No.

[00:29:49] That's horrible.

[00:29:50] Don't be gross.

[00:29:52] All right.

[00:29:52] In Ezekiel, it says, go ye after him through the city and smite.

[00:29:58] Let not your eye spare.

[00:29:59] Neither have ye pity.

[00:30:01] Slay utterly old and young, both maids and little children and women.

[00:30:06] Oh my God.

[00:30:07] That's awesome.

[00:30:07] Ooh.

[00:30:08] Love me some murder.

[00:30:09] Yeah.

[00:30:09] Okay.

[00:30:10] 1 Samuel says, because they had looked into the ark of the Lord, even he smote of the

[00:30:14] people 50,000 and three score and 10 men.

[00:30:19] Jesus.

[00:30:20] Yeah.

[00:30:20] Love that.

[00:30:21] That was fun.

[00:30:22] You ever seen those things where they show the body counts for God versus the devil?

[00:30:27] No.

[00:30:27] Oh, it's like millions versus like one.

[00:30:31] That's hilarious.

[00:30:32] That is hilarious.

[00:30:33] Or maybe 10.

[00:30:34] And true.

[00:30:35] Yeah.

[00:30:35] Who did the devil kill?

[00:30:37] I think maybe, I don't know for sure, but they might attribute Job's kids.

[00:30:42] Job's 10 kids?

[00:30:43] Yeah.

[00:30:44] Interesting.

[00:30:45] Yeah.

[00:30:45] Okay.

[00:30:46] Yeah.

[00:30:46] That does make sense.

[00:30:47] Even though God allowed it.

[00:30:48] Right.

[00:30:49] Yeah.

[00:30:49] Okay.

[00:30:49] But even that one's questionable.

[00:30:51] Right.

[00:30:51] Because God was like, I'll take that challenge.

[00:30:55] Right.

[00:30:56] Go ahead and kill those kids.

[00:30:57] Yeah.

[00:30:57] That's fine.

[00:30:58] Yeah.

[00:30:58] There's like a whole website that like breaks it down as to like, you know, the body count

[00:31:02] basically.

[00:31:03] Yeah.

[00:31:03] That's interesting.

[00:31:04] Yeah.

[00:31:05] All right.

[00:31:05] According to Lamentations, the Lord has swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob and

[00:31:10] has not pitied.

[00:31:12] Okay.

[00:31:12] And then again in Lamentations, the Lord has done that which he had devised.

[00:31:17] He has thrown down and has not pitied.

[00:31:20] He's thrown down, huh?

[00:31:21] And he did not pity.

[00:31:23] And again, thou hast slain, thou hast not pitied.

[00:31:27] Then in Jeremiah, I will not pity nor spare nor have mercy, but destroy.

[00:31:33] Then in Ezekiel, and mine I shall not spare thee, neither will I have pity.

[00:31:39] Because he's such a loving God, right?

[00:31:42] Yeah.

[00:31:42] That's what I keep hearing from people.

[00:31:44] I just don't see it.

[00:31:46] Right.

[00:31:46] Anywhere.

[00:31:47] Him's definitely a sumbitch, but guess what?

[00:31:50] What?

[00:31:51] You're always wrong.

[00:31:53] I don't think so.

[00:31:54] He is merciful.

[00:31:55] Let me tell you how merciful he is.

[00:31:58] Exodus tells us, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundant in

[00:32:04] goodness and truth.

[00:32:05] What did he do to deserve that title?

[00:32:07] Don't know, but they said it, so it must be true.

[00:32:10] Right.

[00:32:11] Deuteronomy, for the Lord thy God is a merciful God.

[00:32:14] Again, they said so.

[00:32:15] Didn't give an example, but they said it.

[00:32:18] Right.

[00:32:18] So I believe you.

[00:32:19] No.

[00:32:20] Second Samuel, let us fall now into the hand of the Lord, for his mercies are great.

[00:32:25] Again, no example.

[00:32:27] Okay.

[00:32:28] Usually these examples that they're giving are, they're either preceded or followed up

[00:32:34] by him killing people.

[00:32:36] Yeah.

[00:32:37] So.

[00:32:37] Exactly.

[00:32:38] And this one is said in 1 Chronicles and several chapters and Psalms.

[00:32:44] Oh, give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good and his mercy and jareth forever.

[00:32:49] Love that guy.

[00:32:50] I don't know why.

[00:32:51] I just heard a rumor that he's nice.

[00:32:53] Sure.

[00:32:54] Right.

[00:32:54] Right.

[00:32:54] Jeremiah says, I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you, for I am merciful, saith the

[00:33:01] Lord, and I will not keep anger forever, ever, ever.

[00:33:06] And finally, in Hosea chapter six, it says, for I desired mercy and not sacrifice and the

[00:33:13] knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

[00:33:17] Okay.

[00:33:18] Yeah.

[00:33:18] God, God wanted not the burnt offerings.

[00:33:21] Right.

[00:33:21] He wanted the not burnt offerings.

[00:33:24] Except for when he did want the burnt offerings.

[00:33:25] But not in Hosea.

[00:33:26] Right.

[00:33:27] Not that time.

[00:33:27] He wanted their knowledge of God.

[00:33:29] He, he wanted them to not be fake.

[00:33:32] Right.

[00:33:32] Is what it was getting at.

[00:33:34] Yeah.

[00:33:34] But still.

[00:33:35] Still.

[00:33:36] Yeah.

[00:33:36] It's all crap.

[00:33:38] It's crap.

[00:33:39] He's not a nice entity.

[00:33:41] Here's the thing.

[00:33:41] You can go through the motions that he told you to go through, and it's still not enough

[00:33:44] for him.

[00:33:45] He's still going to kill you because.

[00:33:47] Because your leaders suck.

[00:33:48] Well, because they make up new rules.

[00:33:51] Right.

[00:33:51] Right.

[00:33:51] They move the goalposts.

[00:33:52] It is what it is.

[00:33:54] Yep.

[00:33:55] Number six.

[00:33:56] Does God help in times of need?

[00:33:58] Here are your choices.

[00:33:59] Nope.

[00:34:00] Especially if he's big mad.

[00:34:02] Or yeah, if you say so.

[00:34:05] I'm going to go with nope.

[00:34:06] Nope.

[00:34:07] Especially if he's big mad.

[00:34:08] Yeah.

[00:34:08] All right.

[00:34:09] From first Samuel.

[00:34:10] And you shall cry out in that day because of your king, which ye shall have chosen for

[00:34:15] you.

[00:34:15] And the Lord will not hear you in that day.

[00:34:18] You know why?

[00:34:18] Because he ain't fucking helpful in times of need.

[00:34:22] Or real.

[00:34:22] Right.

[00:34:23] Yeah.

[00:34:23] Well, yeah.

[00:34:23] That too.

[00:34:23] Right.

[00:34:24] Okay.

[00:34:24] And then in Psalms it says, why standest thou afar off, O Lord?

[00:34:28] Why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

[00:34:31] Why can't I find your fucking face?

[00:34:33] Why are you going away from me, God?

[00:34:35] I have some ideas.

[00:34:36] Right.

[00:34:37] And then again in Psalms it says, my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

[00:34:41] Which isn't that something I think that Christ is supposed to have uttered in the New Testament.

[00:34:46] So that's interesting.

[00:34:47] I think he might be right actually.

[00:34:47] Yeah.

[00:34:47] Why art thou so far from helping me and from the words of my roaring?

[00:34:52] Oh, my God, I cry in the daytime.

[00:34:54] But thou hearest not.

[00:34:57] That's sad for them.

[00:34:58] That's sad.

[00:34:58] Yeah.

[00:34:59] And then in Isaiah, and when you spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you.

[00:35:05] Yea, when you make many prayers, I, God, will not hear.

[00:35:09] And again in Isaiah it says, verily thou art a God that hidest thyself.

[00:35:14] And then in Hosea it says, they shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the Lord,

[00:35:21] but they shall not find him.

[00:35:23] He hath withdrawn himself from them.

[00:35:25] I see.

[00:35:26] But guess what?

[00:35:27] What?

[00:35:28] You're always wrong.

[00:35:30] Yeah.

[00:35:31] Yeah.

[00:35:31] He's helpful if you say so.

[00:35:33] I guess.

[00:35:34] In Psalms.

[00:35:35] These are all from Psalms.

[00:35:36] Oh, of course they are.

[00:35:37] So do they really count?

[00:35:37] No.

[00:35:38] No.

[00:35:38] No.

[00:35:39] For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted.

[00:35:44] Oh, shit.

[00:35:44] Neither hath he hid his face from him, but when he cried unto him, he heard.

[00:35:50] Mm.

[00:35:50] Okay.

[00:35:50] And God is our refuge and our strength, a very present help in trouble.

[00:35:54] Is he, though?

[00:35:55] No.

[00:35:56] The Lord is near to all who call upon him.

[00:35:59] That's what they say.

[00:36:00] I guess.

[00:36:00] I don't believe them.

[00:36:01] Nope.

[00:36:02] Anyways.

[00:36:03] Number seven.

[00:36:05] Whom did Jacob wrestle with?

[00:36:09] The angel of the Lord or God.

[00:36:11] Which one?

[00:36:12] Those are your choices.

[00:36:13] I'm going to go with the angel of the Lord.

[00:36:15] All right.

[00:36:16] Well, that's what I said in Hosea.

[00:36:19] Jacob had power over the angel and prevailed.

[00:36:22] Right.

[00:36:22] Yeah.

[00:36:23] And apologists are like, they meant God.

[00:36:26] That's what that means.

[00:36:27] They interpret it for you.

[00:36:28] Well, I mean, you know, some of them don't think that it's good.

[00:36:31] Even religious people who study the Bible, some of them think that it was not God.

[00:36:36] Well, that's why I said apologists.

[00:36:37] Sure.

[00:36:37] They are like, no, it was totally God.

[00:36:40] It had to have been God because the reason that Hosea was wrestling with him was to earn what he had been given.

[00:36:52] That he had not, until that point, been grateful enough for.

[00:36:56] That's what the apologists argue.

[00:36:58] So it had to be God.

[00:36:59] Got it.

[00:37:00] Okay.

[00:37:00] Wait, Hosea or Jacob?

[00:37:02] I'm sorry, Jacob.

[00:37:03] Okay.

[00:37:03] Yeah.

[00:37:04] You said Hosea.

[00:37:04] Well, this is from Hosea talking about Jacob.

[00:37:07] And that's why I had my words wrong.

[00:37:09] Sure.

[00:37:09] I knew what I meant.

[00:37:10] Follow my brain.

[00:37:12] Okay.

[00:37:12] But guess what?

[00:37:13] What?

[00:37:14] You're always wrong.

[00:37:16] Yeah, of course.

[00:37:16] He wrestled with God, of course.

[00:37:18] Yeah.

[00:37:19] It says so all throughout the Bible.

[00:37:21] Does it?

[00:37:21] Okay.

[00:37:22] Yeah.

[00:37:22] Okay.

[00:37:23] Yeah.

[00:37:23] Actually, I'm just going to read this one.

[00:37:26] It's from Genesis.

[00:37:27] Okay.

[00:37:27] This is where this happened.

[00:37:29] But I had to fill in the blanks.

[00:37:31] Like, I had to read and reread and reread this because this was the passage that said,

[00:37:36] and then he said to him and him and him said he and he, him, he.

[00:37:40] And he did this to him and him did that to he.

[00:37:43] And so I went through and I filled in the blank of each pronoun to tell you if it was God or Jacob.

[00:37:52] Oh, okay.

[00:37:53] All right.

[00:37:53] Yeah.

[00:37:54] Okay.

[00:37:54] So this is what it says.

[00:37:56] And Jacob was left alone and there wrestled a man, God, with him until the breaking of the day.

[00:38:04] And when he, God, saw that he, God, prevailed not against him, Jacob, he, God, touched the hollow of his, Jacob, thigh.

[00:38:14] And the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint as he, God, wrestled with him, Jacob.

[00:38:22] And he, God, said, let me go for the day breaketh.

[00:38:26] And he, Jacob, said, I will not let thee go except thou bless me.

[00:38:30] See, he was fighting him for the blessing.

[00:38:32] Okay.

[00:38:32] So he's like, bless me, God damn it.

[00:38:34] Right.

[00:38:35] And he, God, said unto him, Jacob, what is thy name?

[00:38:40] And he, Jacob, said, Jacob.

[00:38:43] And he, God, said, thy name shall be called no more Jacob but Israel, for as a prince thou hast power with God and with men and hast prevailed.

[00:38:52] And Jacob asked him, God, and said, tell me, I pray thee, thy name.

[00:38:57] And he, God, said, wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name?

[00:39:02] Why you be asking my name, bro?

[00:39:05] And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, for I have seen God face to face and my life is preserved.

[00:39:12] Oh.

[00:39:13] That was from Genesis chapter 32.

[00:39:15] Okay.

[00:39:16] And you're welcome because that took me a few read throughs to get the pronouns correct.

[00:39:20] That's rough.

[00:39:21] Yeah.

[00:39:21] Yeah.

[00:39:22] You see how it was problematic, right?

[00:39:24] Oh, yeah.

[00:39:24] Okay.

[00:39:25] I think we, I, it was a long time ago, but I think we did comment on that at the time.

[00:39:29] Like, holy shit, what is happening?

[00:39:31] You know, I hate me some pronoun abuse.

[00:39:33] Right, yeah.

[00:39:33] In writing.

[00:39:34] Yeah.

[00:39:34] This was just bad.

[00:39:36] Bad.

[00:39:37] What do you mean he said this to him who said back to him that he was tired of him and himming?

[00:39:42] Ha ha.

[00:39:43] What?

[00:39:44] This is bullshit.

[00:39:46] Come on.

[00:39:47] Come on.

[00:39:48] Label your things.

[00:39:49] Right.

[00:39:49] All right.

[00:39:50] Anyways, that was that portion.

[00:39:53] Okay.

[00:39:53] Are you, do you need to like take a deep breath and be ready for this pop quiz?

[00:39:59] No, I think I, I'm going to, I'm going to slam dunk this shit.

[00:40:02] Well, I hope you do.

[00:40:03] I'm going to get, I'm going to get like a 50.

[00:40:06] I'm going to get, I'm going to get half of them.

[00:40:08] Well, I got a 61 and average is 64.

[00:40:11] When you say you got a 61, I'm shooting, I'm shooting low here.

[00:40:14] I'm not going to set myself up for failure.

[00:40:16] All right.

[00:40:16] So I'm going to hope, I'm going to hope I get 50.

[00:40:18] When I told you this yesterday when we were recording, you were like, what?

[00:40:22] Oh, I'll totally beat you.

[00:40:24] And now today you're like, no, I'm saying, you know, I'm prepping myself for a loss.

[00:40:28] You know, I'm prepping myself for the L.

[00:40:30] Then I'm not going to help you.

[00:40:31] Okay.

[00:40:32] All right.

[00:40:32] All right.

[00:40:33] Number one, what did the Lord desire rather than burnt offerings according to the book

[00:40:38] of Hosea?

[00:40:40] Do I get choices or okay.

[00:40:41] And I'm going to give everybody a chance to like try to answer for themselves before

[00:40:45] I answer.

[00:40:45] So I'll pause a little bit before I answer.

[00:40:48] All right.

[00:40:48] I'm going to give the choices.

[00:40:50] Yeah.

[00:40:51] Um, what did the Lord desire rather than burnt offerings according to the book of Hosea?

[00:40:58] Tithe, knowledge of God, temple, or Thanksgiving?

[00:41:03] Go ahead.

[00:41:04] Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock.

[00:41:07] What is the answer?

[00:41:08] Uh, it is, drum roll please.

[00:41:13] Knowledge of God.

[00:41:14] Correct.

[00:41:15] Yay.

[00:41:15] I mean, I think it's correct.

[00:41:17] Right.

[00:41:17] It's correct.

[00:41:19] That's one of the ones I knew.

[00:41:21] All right.

[00:41:21] Number two.

[00:41:22] And yes, there's choices.

[00:41:24] What did the Lord liken Israel's stubbornness to?

[00:41:28] A stubborn heifer, a leopard, a stubborn goat, or a pig?

[00:41:34] And I'll read it again so that the audience playing along at home can have a chance to answer.

[00:41:39] Yeah.

[00:41:40] What did the Lord liken Israel's stubbornness to?

[00:41:45] A stubborn heifer, a leopard, a stubborn goat, or a pig?

[00:41:51] I am going to go with a stubborn heifer.

[00:41:54] I believe that's the correct answer.

[00:41:56] Okay.

[00:41:57] Okay.

[00:41:57] That's the one I picked.

[00:41:58] All right.

[00:41:59] All right.

[00:41:59] Number three.

[00:42:00] Where did the Israelites dwell in the days of the appointed feasts?

[00:42:06] Sealed houses, tents, in caves, or on the mountains?

[00:42:12] And I will read that again for the players at home.

[00:42:15] Yeah.

[00:42:16] Where did the Israelites dwell in the days of the appointed feasts?

[00:42:22] Sealed houses, tents, in caves, or on the mountains?

[00:42:28] What is your answer?

[00:42:29] My answer is tents.

[00:42:31] That's the one I picked.

[00:42:33] Okay.

[00:42:33] Yeah.

[00:42:34] Number four.

[00:42:36] According to Hosea, what will the Lord do after two days?

[00:42:41] He will raise us up, fight our enemies, revive us, or humble us.

[00:42:49] I'll read it again.

[00:42:50] Sure.

[00:42:51] According to Hosea, what will the Lord do after two days?

[00:42:56] Yeah.

[00:42:57] Raise us up, fight our enemies, revive us, or humble us.

[00:43:02] What is your answer?

[00:43:04] I'm going to go with raise us up.

[00:43:06] Okay.

[00:43:07] I think that's the one I picked, but I can't remember.

[00:43:09] All right.

[00:43:10] Well, I guess we're going to read through a little bit.

[00:43:12] Okay.

[00:43:12] Yeah.

[00:43:12] Yeah.

[00:43:13] Okay.

[00:43:13] Number five.

[00:43:14] For how much did Hosea buy the adulteress?

[00:43:18] Three shekels of gold, seven shekels of gold, 15 shekels of gold, 30 shekels of gold.

[00:43:26] And I'll read it again.

[00:43:28] Okay.

[00:43:28] For how much did Hosea buy the adulteress?

[00:43:33] Yeah.

[00:43:34] Three shekels of gold.

[00:43:35] Gomer.

[00:43:36] Yeah.

[00:43:36] Right.

[00:43:36] Three shekels of gold, seven shekels of gold, 15 shekels of gold, or 30 shekels of gold.

[00:43:44] If I remember correctly, I think it was 15.

[00:43:47] I honestly don't remember.

[00:43:49] Sure.

[00:43:49] I didn't remember the first time through.

[00:43:51] I don't remember what I picked.

[00:43:52] Got it.

[00:43:53] So I don't know if I got that one right or wrong.

[00:43:54] Okay.

[00:43:55] I'm going to guess wrong.

[00:43:56] All right.

[00:43:56] Number six.

[00:43:58] According to Hosea, how many days did the Lord say Israel shall dwell without a king

[00:44:04] or prince?

[00:44:05] A few days, many days, 40 days, 390 days.

[00:44:11] Now read it again.

[00:44:12] I don't, I didn't remember even reading about this though.

[00:44:15] Right.

[00:44:15] I don't, I didn't know the answer.

[00:44:17] Okay.

[00:44:17] According to Hosea, how many days did the Lord say Israel shall dwell without a king

[00:44:24] or a prince?

[00:44:25] A few days, many days, 40 days, or 390 days.

[00:44:31] I'm going to go with many days because I don't recall a number being thrown out or being said

[00:44:37] at all.

[00:44:37] So I'm going to go with a generalization.

[00:44:39] I went with 40 days because I was like, they like the number 40.

[00:44:43] Okay.

[00:44:44] Sure.

[00:44:44] You know, but it was wrong.

[00:44:45] So you have a better chance.

[00:44:47] I don't remember what the right answer was.

[00:44:49] Got it.

[00:44:49] Okay.

[00:44:49] Yeah.

[00:44:50] All right.

[00:44:50] Number seven.

[00:44:51] Who is regarded as a cake not turned in the book of Hosea?

[00:44:57] Is it Judah, Ephraim, Assyria, or Mishpah?

[00:45:03] Okay.

[00:45:04] And again, who is regarded as, you know, a pancake?

[00:45:08] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:45:08] A cake not turned in the book of Hosea?

[00:45:12] Is it Judah, Ephraim, Assyria, or Mishpah?

[00:45:18] I am going to go with Ephraim.

[00:45:19] I think that's the one I picked.

[00:45:21] Okay.

[00:45:21] I don't remember if it's right or wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's the one I picked.

[00:45:24] Okay.

[00:45:25] Number eight.

[00:45:26] According to Hosea, when the Israelites return, how shall their fame be like?

[00:45:32] The Nile of Egypt, wine of Lebanon, smell of Lebanon, or the mountain of Myrrh?

[00:45:40] Okay.

[00:45:41] I'll read it again.

[00:45:41] Yeah.

[00:45:42] According to Hosea, when the Israelites return, how shall their fame be like?

[00:45:48] Are they going to be like the Nile of Egypt, the wine of Lebanon, the smell of Lebanon, or

[00:45:56] the mountain of Myrrh?

[00:45:57] I am going to go with the wine of Lebanon.

[00:46:02] Okay.

[00:46:02] I don't remember the answer.

[00:46:04] Right, right.

[00:46:04] Number nine.

[00:46:06] How does Hosea describe the ways of the Lord?

[00:46:11] Are his ways wide, deep, right, or beautiful?

[00:46:17] How does Hosea describe the ways of the Lord?

[00:46:22] Are his ways wide, deep, right, or beautiful?

[00:46:28] I don't know the answer to this, so I'm going to go with deep.

[00:46:34] Okay.

[00:46:35] Which I have no idea.

[00:46:36] Yeah, I did not pick that one.

[00:46:38] I picked right, which I think is the right answer.

[00:46:41] Oh, okay.

[00:46:41] But I could be wrong.

[00:46:42] Right.

[00:46:42] Because I did this a couple days ago, so I don't really remember.

[00:46:45] Sure.

[00:46:45] No, I gotcha.

[00:46:46] I gotcha.

[00:46:46] Number 10.

[00:46:48] According to Hosea, why did Israel stumble?

[00:46:51] Was it because of the enemies were stronger?

[00:46:54] Was it because they had no weapons, because of iniquity, or because they were not careful?

[00:47:01] Let me read it again.

[00:47:02] Sure.

[00:47:03] According to Hosea, why did Israel stumble?

[00:47:07] Because of the enemies were stronger, because they had no weapons, because of iniquity, or

[00:47:14] because they were not careful?

[00:47:16] I think the answer has to be because of iniquity.

[00:47:19] That's what I picked.

[00:47:20] I think it was the right one.

[00:47:22] All right.

[00:47:22] Last question.

[00:47:23] Ready?

[00:47:23] Yeah.

[00:47:24] You already said this one, so you know it.

[00:47:26] Cool.

[00:47:27] What was the name of Hosea's wife?

[00:47:29] Was it Gomer?

[00:47:31] Was it Tamar?

[00:47:32] Was it Rahab?

[00:47:34] Or was it Dinah?

[00:47:35] Let me read it again for the people at home.

[00:47:40] I forgot I was letting people play along.

[00:47:42] Yeah.

[00:47:42] I know this one easy.

[00:47:43] What was the name of Hosea's wife, guys?

[00:47:45] Was it Gomer, Tamar, Rahab, or Dinah?

[00:47:48] It was Gomer.

[00:47:49] It was.

[00:47:49] Yeah.

[00:47:50] All right.

[00:47:50] I think that was easy for everybody.

[00:47:51] Yeah.

[00:47:52] I mean, we just talked about her earlier in this episode.

[00:47:55] Well, we talked about her literally.

[00:47:57] I was like, oh, that's a question.

[00:48:00] Yeah.

[00:48:00] Right.

[00:48:01] All right.

[00:48:02] So what did the Lord desire rather than burnt offerings according to the book of Hosea?

[00:48:06] Knowledge of God.

[00:48:07] That is correct.

[00:48:08] And we both got that one right.

[00:48:10] Number two.

[00:48:12] What did the Lord liken Israel's stubbornness to?

[00:48:15] We both had picked stubborn heifer, and that is correct.

[00:48:18] Yay.

[00:48:18] Okay.

[00:48:18] Number three.

[00:48:20] Where did the Israelites dwell in the days of the appointed feasts?

[00:48:24] We both picked tents, and we both got that one right.

[00:48:27] According to Hosea, what will the Lord do after two days?

[00:48:32] We both picked raise us up, and that was the wrong answer.

[00:48:36] It was revive us.

[00:48:38] Yeah.

[00:48:38] I don't recall that being the wording.

[00:48:40] I thought it was raise us up because I thought it was.

[00:48:44] I do remember.

[00:48:45] So I was teetering between those two because I remember thinking zombies, right?

[00:48:49] So revive would make sense.

[00:48:51] But the raising you up, I thought it was because they were going to that next level in the heaven thing.

[00:48:56] Let me read the verse.

[00:48:57] Let me read the verse.

[00:48:58] Yeah.

[00:48:58] Keeping in mind that the question is after two days.

[00:49:02] Okay.

[00:49:03] Yeah.

[00:49:03] After two days, he will revive us.

[00:49:06] On the third day, he will raise us.

[00:49:09] Oh, that's bullshit.

[00:49:11] Yeah.

[00:49:11] Bullshit.

[00:49:12] That we may live before him.

[00:49:13] I thought.

[00:49:14] I remember them saying raise.

[00:49:15] Yeah.

[00:49:15] Okay.

[00:49:15] It was both, but one was on one day, and then one came up the next day.

[00:49:20] I will accept that.

[00:49:21] Whatever.

[00:49:22] I think it was a trick question.

[00:49:23] That is a trick question.

[00:49:25] It's kind of a bullshit question.

[00:49:26] Right?

[00:49:27] I'm going to give that one as like the class gimme, you know?

[00:49:31] All right.

[00:49:32] I see how you are.

[00:49:34] Number five.

[00:49:35] For how much did Hosea buy the adulterous Gomer?

[00:49:39] Right.

[00:49:39] Yeah.

[00:49:40] Was it three shekels, seven shekels, 15 shekels, or 30 shekels?

[00:49:44] And the answer was 15.

[00:49:46] Yeah.

[00:49:47] Yeah.

[00:49:47] Got it.

[00:49:48] I don't remember if I got that one wrong or right.

[00:49:50] Got it.

[00:49:51] I think I picked 30.

[00:49:52] I think I got that one wrong.

[00:49:53] Hmm.

[00:49:54] According to Hosea, how many days did the Lord say Israel shall dwell without a king or prince?

[00:50:00] I had picked 40 and got it wrong.

[00:50:02] Yeah.

[00:50:03] You picked many days and got it right.

[00:50:04] Yay!

[00:50:05] Yay!

[00:50:06] I'm doing good.

[00:50:07] You are.

[00:50:07] You're kicking this quiz's ass.

[00:50:09] Hell yeah.

[00:50:10] Who is regarded as a cake not turned in the book of Hosea?

[00:50:14] The answer is Ephraim, which we both got right.

[00:50:17] All right.

[00:50:18] Woohoo!

[00:50:18] Yeah.

[00:50:19] According to Hosea, when the Israelites returned, how shall their fame be like?

[00:50:24] I had picked the smell of Lebanon and I got it wrong.

[00:50:29] Ah.

[00:50:29] You picked the wine of Lebanon and got it right.

[00:50:32] Oh, right.

[00:50:32] Yeah.

[00:50:33] Well, at least I had Lebanon in there.

[00:50:35] Right.

[00:50:36] All right.

[00:50:37] This is the one that I said that I got right that you got wrong.

[00:50:40] How does Hosea describe the ways of the Lord?

[00:50:43] You picked deep, but the correct answer was right.

[00:50:46] I just didn't know the answer to that.

[00:50:47] I don't recall that in the chapter.

[00:50:50] It was in chapter 14, verse 9.

[00:50:54] Whoever is wise, let him understand these things.

[00:50:56] Whoever is discerning, let him know them.

[00:50:59] For the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them, but the transgressors stumble in them.

[00:51:06] I think I was a little unimpressed with chapter 14 because it was really like,

[00:51:11] broofy, like, feel-good bullshit.

[00:51:13] It had the sound of Proverbs to it.

[00:51:16] Yeah.

[00:51:16] Like, fuck off.

[00:51:17] And I was kind of like, eh, whatever.

[00:51:19] Right?

[00:51:19] Okay.

[00:51:20] All right.

[00:51:20] Number 10.

[00:51:21] According to Hosea, why did Israel stumble?

[00:51:24] And we both guessed because of iniquity.

[00:51:26] Right.

[00:51:26] It's the only answer that made sense.

[00:51:28] Yeah.

[00:51:28] I think I would have got it even if the choices had been better.

[00:51:32] Sure.

[00:51:32] But the other choices are, they had no weapons.

[00:51:35] They were not careful.

[00:51:36] The enemies were stronger.

[00:51:38] Yeah.

[00:51:38] That was like a gimme question.

[00:51:39] Yeah.

[00:51:39] That was stupid.

[00:51:40] I feel like.

[00:51:41] And then the last one was definitely a gimme.

[00:51:43] Gomer.

[00:51:43] Right.

[00:51:44] Yeah, yeah.

[00:51:44] What was the name of Hosea's wife?

[00:51:46] Gomer.

[00:51:47] I feel like I did pretty damn good.

[00:51:49] You got an 81.

[00:51:51] Holy shit.

[00:51:52] That might be one of my best scores.

[00:51:53] Yeah.

[00:51:54] I usually don't do that good.

[00:51:55] I'm a little jealous, quite honestly.

[00:51:57] Yeah.

[00:51:58] Because, oh, the average has risen.

[00:52:00] When I took it, it said the average was 64.

[00:52:03] Now the average is 65.

[00:52:05] You hit the bell curve.

[00:52:07] Right.

[00:52:08] Yeah.

[00:52:08] Wow.

[00:52:08] Yeah.

[00:52:09] I brought the class down.

[00:52:10] You brought them up.

[00:52:11] I did.

[00:52:12] I did.

[00:52:12] I raised the whole average, a percentage.

[00:52:15] Yeah.

[00:52:15] I feel kind of bad for doing that, actually, because I'm showing that there's more biblical

[00:52:20] knowledge in the world than there actually is because we're actually studying this shit.

[00:52:24] Right.

[00:52:24] And I only got a 61.

[00:52:27] Yeah.

[00:52:27] And I'm reading it.

[00:52:29] Right.

[00:52:29] Yeah.

[00:52:29] I feel like that's the first time that I failed it and that you did better than me.

[00:52:36] Right.

[00:52:37] And didn't fail it.

[00:52:38] Yeah.

[00:52:38] I was right.

[00:52:40] You were not always wrong.

[00:52:44] You were right.

[00:52:45] I was.

[00:52:46] You're sometimes right just that once.

[00:52:50] You know what's funny, though?

[00:52:52] What is funny, though?

[00:52:53] Sometimes.

[00:52:53] Well, I think that if you were to ask our Discord crew, who is often right.

[00:52:59] You're often righter than I am.

[00:53:01] I'm often righter than you are.

[00:53:02] Yes.

[00:53:03] Yeah.

[00:53:03] Definitely.

[00:53:04] Truth be told, I'm almost always wrong.

[00:53:08] Right.

[00:53:08] Yeah.

[00:53:09] My brain doesn't work.

[00:53:11] I remember things incorrectly and out of order.

[00:53:15] I pick the wrong names every time.

[00:53:18] Guys, to be fair, I mean, wife could go look at a price for a jug of milk and literally come

[00:53:24] back two seconds later to the cart and I'd ask her how much it was and she would not know.

[00:53:30] I'd have no idea.

[00:53:31] She has no clue.

[00:53:32] I can do algebra.

[00:53:33] Like, I'm not bad at math.

[00:53:35] Like, give me a pencil and paper and let me write it down.

[00:53:38] I can tell you everything.

[00:53:40] Well, and you can also, you know, tear apart a story and break it down.

[00:53:43] You're very good at that.

[00:53:44] Oh, and you know what else I could do?

[00:53:45] I could tell you exactly what the shelf looked like, where the milk came from and who was

[00:53:51] standing there and what conversation.

[00:53:53] Like, I could tell you every single thing, all the details that you would have missed except

[00:53:58] the price of the milk.

[00:53:59] Right.

[00:54:00] And that also applies to facts that are extraneous.

[00:54:04] Yeah.

[00:54:04] Right.

[00:54:05] Like, extraneous facts you do not hold in your head at all.

[00:54:08] No, I just don't.

[00:54:09] And it's not an act of forgetting.

[00:54:12] It's not.

[00:54:13] I just, they don't stay there.

[00:54:15] They just don't stay.

[00:54:16] Yeah.

[00:54:17] But I remember other stuff.

[00:54:19] You do.

[00:54:19] So, you know, we balance each other well.

[00:54:21] Definitely.

[00:54:22] We together would make one decent witness.

[00:54:28] All right.

[00:54:29] We got anything else today or was that, does that wrap up Hosea?

[00:54:32] Bye, Hosea.

[00:54:34] Bye, Hosea.
