There is no consequences to their actions and we see it repeated again and again and again. We see it with the
00:00:06
recent conversion of of high profile people like Russell Brand, right? Who gets he right? He's convicted or he he's
00:00:13
accused of sexual abuse and then what does he do? I'm a Christian. Guess what?
00:00:19
I'm all good. I'm washed in the blood of the lamb. Like I'm good and what do we
00:00:23
do in the Christian world? We continually prop him up. We put him as a speaker at these events to tell his
00:00:29
testimony of coming his come to Jesus moment. There is no consequences for his actions. There is only let's just
00:00:36
continue to pay this man boo boo dollars and prop him up as a leader of this movement. It's just really bizarre to me
00:00:43
and I don't understand why that is. Like I and and again it's something I'm deep diving on now more so
00:00:49
because I fall in that category. I'm a straight white guy. I grew up in a lot of this too. I'm
00:00:55
trained to just wash away and and be okay with when other white guys just do bad right?
