Matan & Bryce Crawford Discuss G*y Marriage, Jesus Christ
42m 23s
Bryce Crawford, a 21-year-old Christian content creator, shares a heartfelt reflection on human dignity and equality rooted in biblical beliefs. He argues that all people—homeless, racially diverse, or from different backgrounds—are made in God’s image and thus inherently valuable, challenging societal biases that assign worth based on status or appearance. Through personal anecdotes from visits to places like Skid Row, Bryce emphasizes the emotional impact of seeing people suffer and the moral imperative to respond with compassion and love. He critiques views that devalue marginalized groups, such as the homeless or LGBTQ+ individuals, asserting that such judgments stem from prejudice, not divine truth. The conversation also explores Christian teachings on sin, redemption, and the universality of salvation, with Bryce stressing that faith in Jesus offers hope for all, including those who are seen as outsiders. He notes that love should be unconditional, and that treating others with dignity transforms both the observer and the observed. The exchange concludes with a call to shift perspectives—seeing people as people, not as problems or animals—so that love and hope can truly flourish in society.

Maybe you could host a Like a Bryce reunion and we don't meet. He's a Christian as well. Oh, yeah. Yes. Oh, well, that's sweet Yeah, I love Jesus and we already have something in common right so in case anybody doesn't know you please introduce yourself and all that one Yeah, I'm Bryce. I'm I'm 21. I love Jesus. I'm a Christian and we make videos that teach people about the Bible Jesus Sure in our faith all that stuff. You do it by yourself You say the way is that like a multiple like like our team like I got Chris here in Dylan So they help like capture all the stuff on video for us. Um now we're homeless people. He's just believed that they have souls Yeah, I believe every human being has a soul even the homeless. Yeah, even the homeless Now to be honest, I'm probably not as religious as you but when I see them I it's like I Can I see that for a second? Mm-hmm. What is this thing? Celsius? No, no, no, I just like them. That might not be true. Oh, wow. All right. We'll hide it All right Um, what was I saying? Um, you were talking about the homeless. Oh, yeah, when I see them, you know, they sometimes are their eyes are just kind of like Hey Kaya go back to the bed So do you don't you? Kaya stop being such a fucking baby. Okay, he probably stopped his foot or something. He probably got his foot tangled up a shot. No, it's not No, it's not Okay, um Back to the homeless Yeah, sometimes I look in their eyes and it's like I'm talking to a to a lizard You know when their eyes look like they have the little slit in them and it's like not a human It's just it looks like there's nothing behind it Sure, well, yeah, like the Bible would say that every human being is valuable whether you like got a million dollars in your bank account or no No money in your bank account and so like it breaks my heart when I see people You know like people treat them differently, you know, you go in LA you go to like the Hollywood Boulevard and you See all the homeless people and people walk by and they treat them differently and the Bible would say well They're of equal value just as you and me. I don't treat people based off how much money they have I feel like there's just a distinctive thing between you know poor middle class to reaching and homeless It's almost like a different race of people. Well, like you know, you've ever been to skid row I I've sent people there But like just sort of like who aren't from Los Angeles. I would never go there myself Yeah, so I we just we just went to skid row like a couple weeks ago and there was a dude who was in a wheelchair It was severely injured who doesn't do any drugs who doesn't drink any alcohol He's just in a bad position and why would he go to skid row? Well, he's just in a bad position He's down on his luck. You know, he doesn't have any money He's injured. He can't get a job and things like that. And so Yeah, but why would you go to the worst most drug in fit? I mean if he's a little slow, that's okay I mean, I'm just well, you know, I don't know I don't know. Maybe it's a sense of community Maybe doesn't want to feel alone and there's people there, you know But even if you go over there just breaks your heart and you look at the suffering of the world and you go man like we need hope You know, we need hope and so that's why we got to love those people the same way is because they need the same hope that we have as Jesus You know That I would agree with that sentiment if I believed there were people, you know, I mean that what if we what if we? It's kind of like an animal. Well, what makes them different from you? They're not really communicating when I ask them when I ask them for a dollar. You should see that reaction It's like they fucking like they're having a seizure. Yeah, but when they ask me for a dollar and I say no It's the same thing. They can't believe it either way. The only way they're happy is if I give them something What if I give them a knuckle about that? Yeah, you know, I don't think that I don't think I I wouldn't like It if you get me a knuckle. Yeah, but you're not homeless. You're a nice Christian guy. Yeah, but I think that's that's what love is right, you know That's what society says society says treat people differently according to where they come from what's their status? How they are? Well, I think we look at them like what makes them different from you and me just because they have a vice Well, okay. We'll just because they're homeless. That doesn't mean they're less valuable than you, you know Like what it like that that's a basic economics is like what's the price that you put on their life and the price that you're putting on their life 45 dollars. Well Well, like if you're Actually putting a price on their life, right? What's the value that you're valuing them because they don't even 45 dollars You're gonna it's like I'm gonna have to put it on sale for the holidays And I still might not be able to get rid of it. Well, they don't have a home We are blessed to have a home, right? And so we can't just say well, they're less valuable because they don't have a home We have to say well, they're of equal value because they're a human being made in the end higher Come on, just go the fuck back home. Stop being a fucking baby. What what is What is happening? My dog here is there to make me look like a human dude. That is not a dog, bro It's gotta stay there the entire time and it's not gonna be allowed to move from each bed and wander around my house or drink any water Does he talk? Is he gonna say anything? Oh, yeah, that's Mike the co-host But he hasn't talked since we got here. He's just a little nervous Okay, anyways, well moving on from homeless people. What about Asians? Are they human? Absolutely. Oh my god I mean, bro my videographer is Asian. Oh God of course you're a lot more accepting than me. Well, why aren't you accepting? Well to be fair, it's like the difference for me between Asian and homeless. It's a big difference. Uh-huh. What's the difference? Are you kidding me? Well, like how do you make the difference in value? That's the thing is like we're talking about value right now In Asian person probably as an actual net worth That isn't like just scroungies. They found on the floor. Okay. I have a cup Cup with a poo in it. That's what they told me. I mean or I think they will tell me. I don't interact with them Well, you know whether someone has money or not whether someone has a bank account or not, right? It's In conditional love that puts the price on people's life, right? So people is my argument. We're not we're not we're not differentiating them whether Based on race or circumstance. We're differentiating them based on human beings. That's what the Hebrew Israelites would say they would say that black people I don't like the he I don't believe what they say, but you see they're kind of making the same argument that you're making just in a different stance They're saying that black are the best yes, but the black Israelites are under the impression that other people are still people I'm under the impression that homeless Animals are animals. I would you know, maybe we could change a term from homeless people to homeless animals Yeah, I think we would get rid of that whole confusion there See, I don't even call them like I mean, I get that you're calling them homeless people I look at them as people right people same thing with like I think they're just nicer than me. I think Yeah, I don't know. I I think it's just tougher between between Iraqi them. It just makes me upset Well, maybe maybe if you start maybe if you looked at them through a different lens Maybe if you tried to look through them in different lenses just people it would allow you to love them better Like when we went to Skid Row and we were talking these guys They just wanted to be seen as people and when we we were seeing them as people they were hugging us hanging out with us Shaking our hands. We're eating food with them. Are you sure you're meeting with the homeless people? Are you meeting with the Representatives? Yeah, we're meeting with the homeless people. Absolutely. We want to skid row I mean, I haven't been there so you have more experience than me, but what if I take you there and we hand out food together No, I can't do it because I I have all my senses available to me So if I get near a homeless person on Skid Row, it's like I'm gonna get upset with the smell I'm gonna I'm gonna it's like I'm gonna go into defense mode Yeah, I guess it's just you know the matter of of hope, right? We believe that they can have the same hope that we have as Christians, right? And so even if there's things that are uncomfortable like like the setting or the smell, right? We still want to meet those people where they're at and so maybe if you went with me We would have a chance to change that perspective. I think you're just I mean listen I think what you're doing is it's great. I just I can't delegate my time to to homeless people It's just if you want to help them. I think that's nice. I just couldn't do it myself Okay, well I'll keep asking you. Maybe we'll see if you come maybe we'll maybe I'll change my mind Okay, all of America's much more consequential violence Okay, it's the same reason as to why America Kaya, please just fucking go back stop Jesus Christ. What are you doing? You're being such a baby. It's just You're making her stressed She's just so incredibly spoiled from my mom. No, she doesn't want to come over here to see what's up She wants to roam the house because she got to roam the house when I was gone And she needs to have literally the same structure. Regimented I Hate everything. I just hate everything easy to steal from your neighbor whose wife you're cheating with before killing him Because your jellies on Saturday lie to the police about it and go home and punch your mother and father in the face While repenting to multiple gods made out of metal while taking the Lord's name in vain I Think you might have just described The opposite of the 10 commandments right there. Absolutely. No, I'm asking if that's a sin that whole thing right there Yeah, I mean can I read that what I mean that was
Dude, just like, feel like I'm reading Sanskrit, right? So, I got homeless wrote it. It's like you wrote it, bro. Well, let's see. Is it a sin to steal from your neighbor? Whose wife you're cheating on? Yeah, bro. All this is a sin. Sin separates us from God, right? That's what the Christian would say. Oh, that is it. I'm giving him a nasty look to let him know not to move. Oh, you see what he's doing? Hey! Do you understand? Hey! Kaya, go back to your spot! I need to look like a human! Dude, there's so much going on right now. That's a dude. That is a guy. Can I see that? That's a dog. Can I see that? Yeah. By the way, he doesn't say E-Color. He says, "Color for letting your dog know not to run in this street and bite other dogs." My dog is training well. I don't even have anything here, by the way. Bro, he's been sitting on that dog bed the whole time. That's a dude. That's a doggy. That is a guy. That is a literal guy. Bro, what are you doing? He's petting my dog. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not someone that gets really shocked easily. I've never seen anything like this in my life. I've never heard anything like this in my life. You never saw somebody with a dog? Well, no. I've seen furries. He looks like a furry. That's not a furry. That's my dog, Kaya. The thing is, I say outrageous political things. And I want to look normal. So I have a dog there to make me look rational. Yeah, this is a. Yeah, I don't even know what to say. But yes, to answer a question, that is all of that is sin. That wouldn't be okay. No, no. I wasn't planning on doing it myself. I'm not married. I'm just asking. Yeah, yeah. I mean, just even outside of a crucial perspective. It would suck to be in a relationship and then get cheated on. You know, it would suck to murder someone or be murdered. No one needs to part cheating on your wife, you're saying? You said what? You wouldn't want to cheat on your wife if you had one? No, never in a million years do I want to cheat on my wife. Okay, that's interesting. Who would want to cheat on your wife? I don't have a wife. I mean, when you say cheat, I feel like it could mean different things. It could depend on the relationship what they consider cheating is. Like, what do you consider cheating? Well, I actually, I mean, it's tough to say. Are you saying in terms of like, sleeping with another person? Well, I mean, the Bible would address it as adultery. Like, adultery is like sleeping with another person. I mean, I'm waiting for marriage anyways. I don't support, like, the hook up culture. I'm not a big fan of it anyways. So I probably wouldn't do that. But I want to like cheat and steal from my wife and her family is what I mean. I mean, to doing that. What does that mean? Like, I want to get one up on her family. So for it, like, Thanksgiving dinner, it's like, oh, I got you last year. I took your money. Okay. You thought you were getting in a good investment. Again, I don't mind. I don't think I've ever met anyone like you. You're very. I'm honest about it, but I'm a good guy. Yeah. I think he's. What? I'm like, so there's so many things happening. This guy. He's got a. Is that a t-shirt on his face? Okay. What is happening, bro? My dog is not allowed to move. And I don't have any call on. Okay? My dog is not being abused. Happy dog. Okay. Well, um. Yeah. I mean, you know, I think. I think all that stuff that described there is sin. The Bible would describe it as sin. And the biblical perspective is sin separates us from God. Right. But like, being a Christian is trusting that Jesus this way is better. Right? So like, a lot of the world would say all this stuff is okay. There's people that worship idols. There's people that cheat on their wives. There's people that indulge in sexual morality. There's people that do this and that. But you're trusting that Jesus this way is better. Yeah, I see what you mean. I mean, I don't. I don't worship idols. I don't do. Probably any of those things that I listed. I was just asking, generally, if that would be a sin. I mean, I don't go home and pray to like metal objects. I don't really know how that would work. I'm not a fan of that either. Who would win in a battle? God lies from the Bible or Crota son of oryx? Who's the second person? Crota son of oryx? Yeah, who is that? He's the hive. I don't know if I'd say hive God, I believe. Oh, shoot. I have no idea. I'd probably say. Yeah, dude, neither of those is how I believe in that guy. You don't believe in Crota son of oryx? No, no, I don't. Do you believe in oryx? I don't even know what that is. It's the hive gods. Like Greek mythology? No, from the video game Destiny. Oh, I mean, yeah, I have no idea. It's not like a religion. If you're simply like saying you don't believe in it, it's not like a real religion. Yeah, no, I actually have no idea. Actually, you killed them in the game. Okay, yeah, I would say. You know, can we add in a third option? Jesus. Yeah, Jesus, Goliath and then whoever that guy is. Would Jesus would automatically win? I'm saying a physical battle. You don't want Jesus to physically fight either of these people, right? Well, not, I mean, when. He's going to be a pretty peaceful guy. Well, when Jesus returns, he's going to return on a white horse with a sword coming from his mouth. That's what Revelation teaches. Also, he will become physical. Um, kind of, I guess you could say. Like, we believe that sin is cursed the earth. So, he's going to show up on some sort of unicorn and take down his route. He's going to end suffering once and for all. He's going to destroy the antichrist. That's exactly what I just said. Is he not? It's definitely not what you said. That's what I said. I just worded it differently. I made it real simple. Yeah, that's not what you said. But it's okay, that's okay. That's what I said. We'll move on. Is it possible to buy someone's soul and then resell it for a higher price like shoes? So, I think, like, how can you sell something that's not yours to sell? It's not belonging to each individual. Like, I think selling your soul is like, me as a Christian, right? Like, I wouldn't promote any sort of, like, own s**t. And so, me selling my soul would be me, like, promoting only fans for money. Does that make sense? Like, I'm not, like, literally selling my soul. But I'm, like, selling out. Like, what do you mean? I'm saying, like, more of a literal understanding of that. Like, somebody literally sells me their soul and then I take it to, like, Melrose Avenue and sell it for, like, 20% higher. And then that guy resells it for, uh, an even bigger fee. Yeah, I just, I don't, I don't think that can happen. So, I don't really have a problem. But they do the same thing with shoes. Yeah, I think it's a little different. You're talking about some physical versus, like, something intangible, you know what I mean? Uh, should I be allowed to own slaves? No, absolutely not. Why not? Because it's, it got Jesus hate slavery. But I want you to slave. It would have been, like, pretty cool. I got a guy working for me. Well, slavery is not cool. You know, we want to show people that most are slaves. I don't support slavery. You just said you wanted to slave. I mean, I, I want one. I don't support the slave trade. Well, why do you want one, but you don't support the slave trade? That would be pretty cool. I don't think that would be cool. I could do like an amusement park. Come to the one place in the, I need to look like a human. His fire go back to the ground. Bro, his face is sticking out of the mouth. It's a dog. It's named Kaya. Okay, can I see that, that thing? Look, I took the prongs off. So he doesn't really shock him. Can you see it? Can you see it? I'm just going to hold on to this. No, you cannot. So, so that you like don't. I'm going to kick him in the head if you don't give it to me. Yeah, I'm. Instead of getting a little vibration, telling him. I'll attack him physically. Bro, I'm not going to let you hit that guy. Come on, give me a fist bump down there. Come on. It's a, it's a suffering dog. You think he's going to give you a fist bump. Because that is. Yo, what, what is he doing? I told you, you need to give me my shock collar back. Dude, I can't, I can't, I can't do that. Dude, you're like shocking. No, it's not a shock collar. It's, uh, I don't even know. I can't keep up with my lies anymore. There's no way this is, uh, this does not feel real. I feel like I'm in a nightmare right now. That's my dog, okay? All right. All right. I can't give you back that, I can't give back bro. So we'll be stealing, you'd be stealing from me. Okay, well, I'll steal from you this time. You can't do that. It's, it's not allowed. I'll steal from you this time. Bro, look at this thing. I cannot give this to you. This is like, bro, this is real deal. This is the first time he's leaned over to me. Dude, what? I need my dog to stay there. So people can perceive me as a human. Okay. Okay. And today's episode is sponsored by PricePeaks. Me and you make decisions every day.

Thank you to prize line-ups. Why is there no problem when someone calls a dog cute, but when my friend John, who is a registered ****, said the same thing to a six-year-old, he was arrested again. Well, I think you got two different contexts, right? You have someone who's ****ing children. No, he didn't. He didn't touch them again. That was last time. Well, he's a child ****. No, he, he, he, he, all he did was pee in public. Yeah, that's still a weird. Yeah, but he was like intoxicated. Yeah, well, that's a lot going on. He was intoxicated. He didn't public. He's a, he's a child ****. No, he was a, he's a registered **** because he peed in public. Yeah, I, you know, got added to the registry and he also, like, touched a couple of people. Okay, yeah. So he, he peed in public and touched a couple of people. So I would no wonder why it's weird if he says someone's, let's see, sure. But then why can people say it to a dog? Well, dogs a little bit different. What is it? Dog can't consent. Well, dog is an animal. I mean, the, even the Bible condemns bestiality, that's what I'm saying. No one's calling a dog cute like to, I don't know why I pointed at him because that's not a dog. But the, no one's calling a dog cute calling him cute. No, I am not calling him cute. My dog is not cute. I am not. That is not a dog. That is a dog. I don't even know what that guy looks like. My doggy. That guy, that guy has been sitting there the whole time we've been here. But yeah, like that is a, it's a little bit different. Anyway, let's move past that whole thing about my friend, John. I may be realizing he's not a great friend to be around. If someone is Jewish, is it possible for them to be saved in Christianity or is it over before it started? Um, yeah, it's possible for anyone to be saved or Jewish, atheist, agnostic, yeah. Even Jewish? Yeah. Oh, no. Jesus was a Jew. Okay. I mean, we're putting faith in a Jewish carpenter, carpenter? That was his trade. He was a carpenter. Like he's flooring? He made like chairs and my manager viral flooring. He makes floors go viral. Yes. Hardwood floor. My dad does hardwood flooring. Bro, please. Oh, yes. Please stop being a fucking baby, man. Just sit there, okay? I would never understand that. Did you just kick it? What is happening? Can we take his, hold on, hold on. Can we just take his mask off for a second? Look, this isn't a shot call, by the way, this isn't the hell. Oh, my. How did, how did he just sit crisscross applesauce? That's it. If that's a dog, how did he just sit crisscross applesauce? I mean, so we are the looking dog, but that doesn't mean he can sit normally. Yeah, that is interesting. If women become pastor, how can they cook? Yeah, you know, I mean, my personal perspective on, on scriptures that women shouldn't be pastors. But well, that's, I mean, I guess I'll give you a fist bump on that women shouldn't. I agree with you. Well, they shouldn't be pastors, but it doesn't mean they can't share their faith. They can't be, that doesn't mean they can't be preachers, evangelists, things like that. Just the role of a pastor. Yeah. Well, that's what I'm saying. Um, but I think women can do more than cook. They can, they can clean. They can make the bed. They can walk around the house and say nice things as long as they don't get smart with you. Well, you know, Proverbs 1 talks about women being clothed in dignity. And it does talk about them working with their hands. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. But this is what it says. Charm is deceitful, beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. And so the same way that like me as a Christian, we want to fear Jesus and let that be an attractive quality for myself. But woman, you're saying, should fear the man in the house? No, no, no, fear Jesus, fear the Lord, the fear, the fear the Lord, it's like a loving respect for God. It's like you love Jesus enough. Yeah, but they were, I imagine they would also go for men, right? Well, the way God designed marriage, right, is he made the man, the leader of the household because men are more logically hardwired and women are more emotionally hardwired, you know? So it's not that emotions are a bad thing. It's just logic outweighs emotions sometimes. So the role of the man is to lead, well, be courageous, stand firm. It's because women realistically, and this is with no disrespect, they are not functional human beings on the level that they can consider anything besides just in the moment. They're not able to think even five seconds ahead. Well, I, I think they, they can. I mean, there's many female figures in scripture that have been used for significant ways. No, but the woman nowadays is different from, you know, the women in the Bible. I mean, I think every human being is definitely different now. There are human beings. I'm not gay. I don't want to live in a house with a man. That would be a nightmare. I would, I'm just suggesting that women, despite that, even though I don't, I'm not a big fan of. Might even be donner than. Well, you know, I mean, I think that we're definitely in a different cultural time period now. So when it comes to like, yeah, men and women, both are going to be a little bit different now, but that the same roles apply, right, in scripture. The man is still supposed to lead well, be strong and courageous, be firm. The woman is supposed to be like a proverbs 31 woman, close herself and dignity, work with her hands and enjoy the, the fruit of her labor, fear the Lord, all these things. Do you believe in disciplining your wife, disciplining my wife, what, like, no, no? If she, if she slept in and forgot to cook you lunch, I mean, I mean, I mean anything, like even outside of your wife, you can just have conversations with them. People want to dress stuff. That was, it's making sure you didn't move. I mean, yeah, you know, I think like, yeah, I think that, that you can have conversations with many people. That's what we try to do in our videos is that we have conversations with people that disagree, you know? So we, we realize that having conversations with people lead to more fruit than just hitting someone, you know? Right. Um, while you didn't make a wish respond when I told them I wanted to meet John Cena, I don't, do you have a physical ailment? Do you have, oh, Kaya, go back to the fucking bed, wow. I do not know. Please do not kick him again. That is a, you just smacked him in the face. No, I didn't. I'm training my dog. Am I not allowed to train a dog? I think that there's definitely different ways to train the dog other than like hitting it. No, I didn't hit him just completely different ways. What? Did you just hit him with a table? Is he ever going to talk? I didn't hit my dog. I would not do that. Bro, there's eight cameras in here. We just caught eight different angles of you kicking your dog of him hitting him in the face with the table. You just smacked him in the face. His back just popped. He's a happy dog. He's a happy dog. His name is Kaya. Dude, he's been holding the same facial expression since we've gotten here because it's a mask. He's got a happy face. That's not a dog. No, I think that face is a face of terror. That's not a happy looking gesture. No, not at all. No, look, he's so happy. You guys might, you guys need some serious help. Are you happy? You guys need serious help. Are you happy? Is he tickling him? No, he's a punching pen. But a lot of soft punches. I don't think, with all due respect, I've never said this in my life, you guys might need some serious help. Why would we do wrong? I don't know what's going on in this room. I've never seen a setting like this before. Yeah, this is crazy. Okay. Let's move on. I'm in shock. Does God control the outcome on Reignbet? Reignbet's like a gambling. Yeah, it's like those little balls and I got point two and I wanted to get to get five at least. God does not control it on Reignbet. I think they're their tech system controls it. So that he can't help me win. I mean, look, I don't think gambling is wise. You know, the Bible calls us to speak good stewards of finances. But one dollar can only lose you one dollar, but it could also make you a million. I, you know, I can't give you a fist bump there, but you're going to leave me hanging on that. I just gave you a pretty crucial piece of advice. I mean, that, you know, I think you can do a lot more wise things with your money, for sure. So I can't. But you could have more money to do more wise things with if you win the lottery or win big and gambling. Yeah. I think there's like a couple of different things. It's like being a good steward, also the ways you make your money. And I don't want to make my money gambling my money. I feel like I'm dishonoring God. There's other ways that I can be. Be a good example. I see a lot of people from every different religion gambling. Well, I don't think it's, I don't think it's necessarily right. There's not a scripture that necessarily condemns God.
Gambling but the Bible calls us to be good stewards and I don't think gambling or money is good stewardship of money, right? Do you think circumcisions are causing No, no, I don't know if I believe it that's what RFK said You know, I I have no idea you didn't hear him say that no, I did not hear him say that Do this mind blowing because that's so real human in there. I don't even think he knew that you were gonna hit him this amount of times There's no way I did not oh Hi, doggy I Did not hit him I did not What were we talking about Dude, I'm like what were we saying? Oh Yeah, RFK he said that when the kids at a young age get circumcised they get out of here and that's causing them to get down See drum and be autistic. That's what he said. I'm not joking. Yeah, dude You know, I think that there could be many different things that cause autism You know, there can be different vaccines and things like that But I think I don't think circumcision is necessarily a bad thing I'm not suggesting circumcision is a bad thing either. I'm suggest I'm asking if you think it's like medically Because of the Advil, I guess causing autism. Yeah, I have no idea. I don't know anything about it Do you know a RFK? I know who he is. I don't know whether I trust him because he said something's sometimes I think it's right sometimes I think it's wrong His voice is a little hard to listen to to be completely honest. I mean, I think what he's trying to do it's great You know trying to keep America healthy and things You said what I said that I like yeah, it's it's pretty nice. You know, I think that was something I got convicted on was like I need to honor guy with my body and with my health and like working out and things like that So I appreciate someone making an effort, you know, did you know that Neil the grass Tyson is most likely not the reincarnation of the Dusseldor vampire? The you know, I don't think anyone's reincarnated, but I don't even know what I don't believe in reincarnation not at all really I've talked to Christians before who do believe in that. Well, they're lying. I don't know why they believe that they must not be Christian I know I know for sure that some rabbis believe in it Yeah, you know, I can't control what other people believe, but it's not biblical. He is choking out the dog. What is I? Feel like I feel like I need to do something, but I don't know what to do cuz this is so he's shocking the dog. He just choked him out I don't think that thing works anymore. I'm glad. What is it? I have never I Don't know what to think right now My dog Kai, I need to stop misbehaving. She she's spoiled You just called it a he earlier whatever you call it a sheet because my mother was there and she let my dog roam around the house Why should my dog be allowed to roam around the house and not sit in the same spot for eight hours a day? Dude, I I honestly don't I Don't know what I'm supposed to say I Don't even know if there is something I'm supposed to say I'm getting back to the reincarnation thing a lot of rabbis believe it Well, I mean they shouldn't believe it. I I don't even think they do no I talked to a rabbi on my show about a year and a half ago and I asked him and he explained to me that Depending on if you're a bad guy you can be reincarnated as an apple Well, yeah, I mean the Christian perspective would not believe in reincarnation. We get one life to choose Jesus or not If we choose Jesus got grants that wish we spend an attorney for him with him If we decide that we want to live our way instead of God's way it breaks God's property grants that wish and we spend an attorney separate from him So you don't believe you could come back as an apple? No, I thought that was ridiculous when I heard it too Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. Well, I'm just saying that's what I heard and by the way I have talked to Christians who believed it. Yeah, that's interesting. I'm sorry because they I don't think they believe in the Bible Well, maybe they just misinterpreted it or whatever maybe maybe I can't speak. I imagine they're not bad intentioned. Sure In an ideal world, what are women allowed to do? I mean, I think men and women have a lot of freedoms now again today and I an ideal world What is that? I don't even know what that question means in a world that is how we want it to be not one How it is today with a lot of the bad stuff going on? I mean the way that I mean the way that God initially designed the world is for human beings to be in relationship with him You know, so I think that the ideal world would be to go back to that and that's what Jesus is bringing when he returns again And ends all suffering. He's bringing us back to how God designed at the Garden of Eden perfect relationship with him, you know, right Should gay people be allowed to have children? Like in what context like should they be able to what do you mean like should they be gay people? I guess they're getting married, which I don't support initially anyways, but they're getting married I don't know if you can tell but my political beliefs. I'm like 60. I wouldn't say 60 years behind I'm 60 years ahead, which is the belief from 60 years ago. You see what I'm saying. Sure. Yeah, I guess I see what you're saying I don't know if that made sense, but would you support gay marriage? No, I don't support it. Well, that's what I'm saying They were ahead on that. Well, I think that like when it comes to you don't have fees bumming on that Dude, I don't know. I feel weird fist bump in you. I like why why I do I don't know I feel weird fist bump in you But I will say this that the Bible talks about homosexuality the homosexuality The act of homosexuality is sinful, right? So I have I have friends that are Christian that Used to be gay that aren't gay anymore that they still they do shock therapy shock therapy. No, I don't even know I don't even know what that is. You haven't heard of it. No I think it's kind of when you shock a person who's gay and instilled that they're being shocked because they're gay and then they will stop being gay Hopefully. Yeah, I don't think that's necessarily a good way to deal with it You know, how else can you fix it? I think go to Jesus. You know, but that make them not gay Look, I can't say that for some people they go to Jesus that struggle with same sex attraction and God takes it away Some people go to Jesus for the same thing a God doesn't necessarily take it away But God helps them through it. So just because you have the temptation to do something I don't have that just in general any temptation just let's say you have a temptation to do something It's not the temptation that's necessarily sinful. It's if you act on it, right? And so Jesus gives people the strength to say notice something like same-sex attraction to act on it So the Bible condemns homosexual activity But that doesn't I condemn it as well. I completely agree with that but that doesn't mean whether you're a heterosexual human or a homosexual human Good bad. That doesn't mean that that they're lesser value. Every human that's tough for me to agree with that last part Well, it's because we believe that every human being whether they're homeless whether they're gay whether they're black Asian white They're all made in the image of God They bear God's image they have the imprint of God in their life in the price that God puts on every human being's life Is his own because he died for us. That's the gospel Jesus put his price Put his life as the price for every human being's life. So you're saying you're generally against homophobia and racism Yeah, I mean, I don't think you have a reason be afraid of gay people I don't think you have a reason be afraid of other races. I think God actually interpreted that right I wouldn't say I'm a homophobic like I'm rude to gay people I mean that I mean I am, but that's not what I mean when I say I'm homophobic. I am literally scared of them I don't think you have to be scared of them. I think I think they're all valuable and just because that they I mean, we're talking about two different categories here We're talking about sexual orientation and something you can't control. You can't control what race or porn, you know No, no, racism is a whole different thing I mean, but but like was something like like homosexuality or heterosexuality There's a lot of heterosexuals in that happens within Christianity like pastor's shooting on their lives People watching so like it's not that like you're just condemning one people group It's there's a lot of sin going on and we need Jesus to help with our sin I'm gonna shock and I'm not I'm gonna shock my dog. Why why would you shock him? There's nothing that just happened within the last three minutes. I would make you want to shock this guy right here Is there a way I can guarantee long net goes to hell? That wait, what did you just ask? I don't even know he just asked is there a way I can guarantee a long neck goes to hell What is long neck? He's my next guest coming in in four minutes. Okay, um I don't think I don't want him to go to hell. I don't want anyone to go to hell He's a bad guy. I'm telling you. I don't want anyone to go to hell for one. He does all And two he is a creepy looking individual Well, you know what whether he's whether I don't know how he's built what he looks like or whatever But he's just as valuable. I have a long neck or I have a normal neck. I guess you have a normal neck It's like his neck goes instead from here to here to here to here to here. Yeah, you know, I don't know How or why he looks the way it does, but he's made in the image of God and he's valuable The wrong neck. He's made in the image of God. He's made in the image of God I don't even know what to say. I mean, I I'm just like right now every human being on the planet deserves hell you deserve hell. I deserve hell
Long neck deserves hell. He deserves hell. That guy deserves hell. But that's a dude and When you have Jesus in the picture when you put your faith in Jesus You're asking You're asking Jesus to pay the price that you and I deserve to pay in hell. So like a murderer deserves to go to jail you and I deserve death because of sin But it's like Jesus pays the price that you are transferring the sins to him Essentially. Yeah, and the Bible says he who knew no sin became sins that you and I could become the righteousness of God So is there a way that we can do that without letting long neck do it? Well, the office on the table for everyone, but I don't like long neck Well, I like long neck and I've never met him before you don't even know who he is. What if he's a horrible guy. Well, I still love him You would be surprised if you met him. I think you would change your mind Well, I if I do run into him. I look forward to meeting him Hold on one second I don't know what is happening Why why suppose the there's literally a human and a dog costume next to me Never been in the circumstance before You Well anyways, that'll be it Thanks for coming on I appreciate it. Thanks, but I appreciate you. Nice to meet you. That was actually I I Appreciate the conversation and I just want to let everybody know I didn't shock my dog It's not an e-caller, but you did beat him. No, I never would hit my dog I treat my dog well. He's the most spoiled Kaya is the most spoiled dog in the entire world. There are five cameras in here Five different angles. They watched you just when I'm streaming.
