dislike . the so—called liberal dislike. the so—called liberal left seemed to define hate as anything and anyone that disagrees with them disagree with someone does not mean you hate them. sometimes you might hate them. sometimes you might hate what they do, but a good christian would always say hate the sinner and love the sin . why the sinner and love the sin. why then, does this message get so confused in the public square? i need to clarify that it's hate the sin and love the sinner. thank you, emma, for looking at me there. gb news stands for many things in dependent journalism, putting facts first, respecting opinions, and those expressing them. the right of every individual to form and share views, holding all leaders and society and ourselves accountable. we believe in bringing clarity to complex and contentious issues. celebrate the potential and achievements of the individual and communities in shaping their and our nation's future and in being one team. innovating side by side to bring the best out in

each other. essentially we believe in free speech and a free press. our entire channel is set up around promoting diversity , a true diversity, not diversity, a true diversity, not the superficial kind, but diversity of thought and opinion. we're able to offer a different perspective because we provide a platform to voices which the mainstream media has been shouting down for so long. we hear the silent majority nowhere amongst those values doesit nowhere amongst those values does it say that we represent hate . quite the opposite. but hate. quite the opposite. but the hard left keep coming for us. normally i shrug them off and i certainly won't be naming them and giving them the time of day today. you know, the silly campaigns that i'm talking about that are trying to shut us down. but wanted to but the reason i wanted to address today is because i'm address it today is because i'm tired of this false narrative that everything that goes against narrative against the approved narrative is considered hatred, hate is to be considered hatred, hate speech, crimes , hate, hate, speech, hate crimes, hate, hate, hate . and what they're really hate. and what they're really saying is think like us or we'll shut you down. do as we do or we'll come for you. they're bullies. well, i can't help but feeling there's a little

projection going on when they accuse us of hating someone or something. seems to me that something. it seems to me that they think we hate them because it's who hates us. it's it's them who hates us. it's where we see a difference of opinion. they see dissent even when we're sharing the most loving, compassionate message, they see it as hate because we dare to step away from their narrative. laurence fox says, narrative. as laurence fox says, they are the very thing they accuse you of. their ideas often don't stand up to scrutiny, so they don't want us questioning or challenging that approved narrative. they sneer at us and they look down their noses at our well gb news is our audience. well gb news is going nowhere any time soon, and whilst we are here, we'll continue to shine a light on issues that matter to you. the ordinary brit be with the hard left and their campaign to censor us. to paraphrase the words of president trump in the end, they're not coming after gb news. they're coming after you. and we're just standing in their way .

way. gender neutral clothes , gender gender neutral clothes, gender neutral toilets. how about a gender neutral lord's prayer? the archbishop of york says the lord's prayer is problematic due to the oppressively patriarchal reference to our father. yes you heard me right. we're now censoring a prayer that's been recited by millions of people for 2000 years, all of which bnngs for 2000 years, all of which brings me to tonight's dual . so brings me to tonight's dual. so joining me now are my dualists uk director of the common sense society, emma webb, and comedian, our very own leo kearse . emma, let's start with kearse. emma, let's start with you. what's your take on this random nonsense from the archbishop of. >> well, i think it shows the depth of rot within the church of england, within the leadership church of leadership of the church of england, that they would think it appropriate to even suggest that the words of christ himself are problematic. that the words of christ himself are problematic . that's are problematic. that's

basically to suggest that christ himself is problematic. and i think that is for them the problem. i think that for them, christ is the problem in christianity. they've strayed so far from the gospel . all that far from the gospel. all that thatis far from the gospel. all that that is going to be the ultimate stumbling block for them because i'm really doubt that they believe and frankly , my view is believe and frankly, my view is that if the bishop of york thinks the lord's prayer is thinks that the lord's prayer is problematic and he said it's because have been because some people have been abused fathers or abused by their fathers or because has because the patriarchy has oppressed women or anything like that. oppressed women or anything like that . i think oppressed women or anything like that. i think if the if oppressed women or anything like that . i think if the if the that. i think that if the if the archbishop of york has a problem with this, he should go and work for some. woke corporate. he needs to leave the church if he thinks that christ's words are the problem , then he not the problem, then he should not be an archbishop and he should be an archbishop and he should be nowhere near the leadership be an archbishop and he should bethe vhere near the leadership be an archbishop and he should bethe church ear the leadership be an archbishop and he should bethe church of the leadership be an archbishop and he should bethe church of england.arship of the church of england. >> do you think he's saying that jesus got it wrong? >> how are you >> well, how else are you supposed to interpret he's supposed to interpret that? he's suggesting of suggesting that the words of jesus problematic, suggesting that the words of jesuis problematic, suggesting that the words of jesuis to problematic, suggesting that the words of jesuis to suggest oblematic, suggesting that the words of jesuis to suggest thatnatic, suggesting that the words of jesuis to suggest that christ that is to suggest that christ is fallible in in in old money, you'd call that blasphemy or heresy, wouldn't you? >> you probably would in old

money. some us would money. yes. some of us would still use that term now, leo, i think you both need to get with the program. think you both need to get with the pro 2023. everything is >> it's 2023. everything is trans now. have you not seen an advert ad break? jesus or the lord's prayer or whatever god's got to be. he's got to be trans. and i think would fit in with and i think it would fit in with the church. it's organised the church. it's an organised nafion the church. it's an organised nation that's popular with men wearing dresses , wearing big floaty dresses, study also the invented study and also the invented transubstantiation track transubstantiation. that's when a bit of bread identifies us as the body of christ and some wine identifies as his blood. i mean, come on, we all know it's really just bread . oh, sorry if that just bread. oh, sorry if that offended you. sorry if i misgendered your bread. there you did. and also also , it you did. and also also, it would. it would help the church get better. esg scores and then they could get more investment from blackrock and vanguard and fix the church roof. i may be playing devil's advocate here. >> i'm going to leave your comments on trans substantiation for a minute because i want to hear your thoughts on the esg.

do this is why the do you think this is why the church do you church is going woke? do you think going after the think they're going after the esg scores? >> i'm not i'm not sure. the financial state the church. financial state of the church. i know. mean, there are know. i mean, there are registered a charity, they registered as a charity, so they get and i've get certain breaks. and i've always that own always understood that they own so land. they've money so much land. they've got money flowing i mean, we know flowing in. but i mean, we know that actually going church that actually going to church isn't popular it used isn't as popular as it used to be, and bound to hit the be, and that's bound to hit the bottom so i don't know, bottom line. so i don't know, are they looking are they looking for money? i don't know. i think they're trying i think i think they're trying to through the to we've seen through the centuries, know, the centuries, you know, there's the king james bible. know, they king james bible. you know, they sort themselves. sort of reinvent themselves. they've reformed themselves themselves. following themselves. we're not following themselves. we're not following the christianity the same version of christianity that were for, you know, that people were for, you know, a thousand years so you a thousand years ago. so you know, this is an attempt know, maybe this is an attempt to i think to reinvent. but i think if there's organisation that there's one organisation that should be a little bit of a stick in the mud is the church, you don't want the church, you know, maybe, you know, ben and jerry's labour can jerry's or the labour party can reinvent themselves and go around know, the around with, you know, the latest progress on roller latest progress flag on roller skates you know, skates and, you know, with sequinned pants. the sequinned hot pants. but the church should you church should maybe just, you know, stay same one sort of know, stay the same one sort of

totem of recognisable, you know , stoicism and sameness throughout the ages . throughout the ages. >> you filled my minds with visions of justin welby and sequinned hot pants. >> let's not do that . oh, leo >> let's not do that. oh, leo made a very offensive joke there. he offended me. i took offence to his joke. i don't know if he's a snowflake. well, this is the point. i don't know if you meant to cause offence or not. however, that's the difference between us and everyone right? that we're everyone else. right? that we're able christians take take able to as christians take take able to as christians take take a and that i know that a joke and see that i know that you're trying laughter. you're trying to cause laughter. are usually trying to. oh, yeah. >> i wouldn't try that at the mosque. >> i'm usually trying to get laughs. that is, some our laughs. that is, some of our colleagues for colleagues are being sued for making jokes. this is how how making jokes. so this is how how it's gone. bizarre. it's gone. well >> so, i mean, you know, calvin, i'm a of free speech i'm a sort of free speech absolutist, i think anybody, absolutist, so i think anybody, including the bishop of york, should to say whatever should be free to say whatever that want say. that whatever they want to say. but reserve the right to but i do reserve the right to say that his his views are, i think, theologically deviant and i in a abbey church think, theologically deviant and i other| abbey church think, theologically deviant and i other day, abbey church think, theologically deviant and i other day, a abbey church think, theologically deviant and i other day, a cathedral|rch the other day, a cathedral church , very ancient church . and

abhorrent. and no, no way an ideal outcome for anyone, for the mother, obviously for the for the for the foetus or anyone. i'm a pragmatist and you can't you can't ban abortion. you can only ban safe abortion. we saw when abortion was was illegal. people had backstreet abortions . and i think it's abortions. and i think it's actually it's more humane and safer and better for everybody if it's if it's available . and i if it's if it's available. and i think some of the some of the people urged for it to be pushed up to a higher age limit. people urged for it to be pushed up to a higher age limit . and up to a higher age limit. and bearin up to a higher age limit. and bear in mind, i've got some skin in the game. i've got a baby. so you know, i'm speaking from from somebody who loves , you know, somebody who loves, you know, loves my child. and i hate to think of it happening to other babies, but some people are going to do it. i think what we could do in this country to reduce the number of abortions is many people can have an is so many people can have an abortion, have baby abortion, can't have a baby because don't own house. because they don't own a house. they don't secure in their because they don't own a house. ththeir n't secure in their because they don't own a house. ththeir job secure in their because they don't own a house. ththeir job and secure in their because they don't own a house. ththeirjob and in:ure in their because they don't own a house. ththeir job and in their1 their because they don't own a house. ththeir job and in their inheir in their job and in their in their housing situation . so if

within the church in an intelligent way , that would be intelligent way, that would be one thing. but they just stay out of those. you know, those those topics where christie in teaching has something to say because it's not politically fashionable . all it seems that fashionable. all it seems that the church are too frightened to weigh in, in on it or to even have those discussions in the first place, because they've taken a settled opinion and that's opinion is one that's settled. opinion is one of culture that of mainstream culture that has very , if not nothing to very little, if not nothing to do with with christian teaching . and i think there are lots of people we've spoken about this in previous weeks within the clergy in the church of england who are very literate on these issues. but those people don't get a voice because it seems that the leadership just simply don't care to weigh in on issues that matter to the majority of people in the congregation because playing to the because they're playing to the secular culture rather than thinking about their own flock . thinking about their own flock. >> do you think that trying to draw people in, do you think if we i think if we liberalise would be a mistake in strategy? >> think because

>> i think they are because they're trying appease the they're trying to appease the people will never turn people that will never turn up anyway. pushing the anyway. they're pushing away the people that do turn up. but but i you the last i want to give you the last word. do you have hope? because obviously, this is not about bringing the church of england down. is about holding them down. this is about holding them to account. is your hope? to account. where is your hope? well, hope the well, i have hope for the archbishop, but that's if he changes, exactly. changes, he says exactly. >> i'm a christian. i >> i mean, i'm a christian. i believe in redemption. he has a chance change says he chance to change and he says he wants to stay in his role until 2026. and if he does that and he changes, then pray that good changes, then i pray that good things happen. he things can happen. but if he doesn't, believe he's going to doesn't, i believe he's going to be to live the be a man who's going to live the rest his life with quite rest of his life with quite a few regrets. okay. >> well, thank you for doing what you're doing. and where can people out more about wes welby? >> got website, >> we've got a website, w—w—w—what. where's welby .com? and social media and we also have social media on twitter at wes underscore welby that weller, editor and that was ben weller, editor and campaign welby. campaign leader of wes welby. >> for your time today >> thank you for your time today . have plenty more to . and we have plenty more to come this evening on my common sense next, we'll be sense crusade. next, we'll be heading belfast question heading to belfast to question whether curriculum in whether the school curriculum in northern is in need a

northern ireland is in need of a shake up. see you in a few

>> you're listening to gb news radio . radio. >> yeah, man, welcome back to the common sense crusade with me, calvin robinson on your tv, onune me, calvin robinson on your tv, online and on your wireless. >> a welsh conservative mp has quit his job in order to vote with his conscience against the government's new regulations on sex ed in northern ireland. robin miller, a parliamentary

private secretary to welsh secretary david davies, was one of 20 tory mps that voted against the regulations. the northern irish law would see pupils pass. primary school taught about access to abortion services and prevention of early pregnancy. it begs the question does the education policy in northern ireland need a shake up ? the christian institute's northern ireland officer, calum webster, joins us live from belfast. thank you forjoining belfast. thank you for joining us from belfast. now, calum, first of all, if you could talk us through this liberalised version of the sex ed laws in northern ireland, because i'm sure most people aren't aware, but i know that you are an expert on because and expert on this because you and i shared platform over there shared a platform over there very recently. >> well, good evening, calvin. thank for the invitation thank you for the invitation on your tonight . that's your show tonight. that's correct . in your show tonight. that's correct. in northern your show tonight. that's correct . in northern ireland, correct. in northern ireland, the secretary of state has laid regulations. west minster, which impose the teaching of abortion in post—primary schools in northern ireland. and as part of the cedar recommendations from

the cedar recommendations from the cedaw committee and of the un and at the present time, the schools in northern ireland have have freedom to develop their own sex education policies in line with their religious ethos and in consultation with the wishes of parents. but this step and these regulations, which will come into effect next year , take much of that , some of , take much of that, some of that liberty away and impose values on schools that many parents simply do not agree with on issues that are not neutral or unconscious. on issues that are not neutral or unconscious . herschel there or unconscious. herschel there are issues that affect their own children and really this step is about taking liberty away from parents. >> it's amazing that this keeps happening . it seems to me that happening. it seems to me that because stormont isn't sitting that we and the eu are pushing so many laws on northern ireland and ireland in general. is that the case? is this what's happening? are we taking advantage? >> well, certainly it is true that there are many politicians

within northern ireland who would defend the rights of to parents have their children educated in accordance with their beliefs and who would be resistant to the demands of the committee. but unfortunately, there are also organisations within northern ireland who are peddung within northern ireland who are peddling this agenda as well. the human rights commission, which is a tax payer funded body here in northern ireland, has recently published a report recommending changes to rac policies in schools and that report and that investigation they've conducted criticises schools that have taught children to abstain from sexual activity before marriage and have put in the demands that are making their pressurising schools to teach more about the issues of transgenderism and other similar controversial issues that many parents are rightly concerned about. >> so, callum, this isn't about teaching one set of views and

allowing another set of views to be put forward as well. this is about imposing a set of values replace facing the current set because it the case that because isn't it the case that the statistics that in the statistics show that in northern ireland the traditional views prominent and views are still prominent and most adhere to most families adhere to traditional christian views ? so traditional christian views? so why is the state pushing this ? why is the state pushing this? and up actually because and it lines up actually because northern ireland has the most liberal laws the northern ireland has the most liberalof laws the northern ireland has the most liberalof the laws the northern ireland has the most liberalof the eu,aws the northern ireland has the most liberalof the eu, doesn't�*ne northern ireland has the most liberalof the eu, doesn't it? in whole of the eu, doesn't it? in the whole of europe, in fact. so why more liberal line why is this more liberal line being parents being pushed on parents when it's against parents own values? >> well, certainly it's much of it has been imposed by legislation and policy from westmin ster, but also by public bodies like the human rights commission and also with a number of other quangos in northern ireland to children's commissioner and equality commissioner and equality commission as well. and they've been calling for more sex education in schools here too. and it's almost like northern ireland is seen as a mission by activists to change a more socially conservative ethos, a more christian based ethos into a very secular one. and the

views of parents are disregarded . children are almost seen as pawns in this development. they're seen as people who can be taught a particular agenda regardless of what the parents think. it's almost as if there is a view being followed or being implemented that children are the property of the state rather than children belong to their parents and parents know what is best for their children i >> -- >> so it does seem like an anti—christian view is being forced upon parents and children. it's very strange for me to observe from the outside, but thank you very much for sharing your expertise on this. that christian institute. that was christian institute. it's ireland officer it's northern ireland officer callum the callum webster, who chairs the northern ireland office, said the government's regulations will in educating will result in educating adolescents on issues such as how to prevent a pregnancy. the legal right to an abortion in northern ireland and how relevant services may be accessed. my duellists, leo and emma are still with me. leo, what's going on here? i'm not

sure . sure. >> i wasn't paying attention . >> i wasn't paying attention. no, i mean , we're seeing this no, i mean, we're seeing this through education, not just in, not just in northern ireland, which i understand is probably a more, more traditional place than, than the rest of the uk . than, than the rest of the uk. but we're seeing woke ideologies have sort of it's been the long march through our institutions. the conservatives have taken the eye off the ball, i'm sure, i'm sure 30 years ago the people in school boards were conservative parents. the people concerned about what's what's being delivered to their to their children. now schools seem to be seem to have been infiltrated by by 22 year olds when nose rings and purple hair and they are dictating all this, you know, gender ideology and all kinds of other, you know, things that would be considered radical ten years ago, things, things that i consider extremely radical. >> now, emma, is this a case of i mean, leo is absolutely right for most of that, but is this also a case of being anti christian or christian christianity being pushed out of

the public square? christianity being pushed out of the yes. lic square? christianity being pushed out of the yes. andjuare? christianity being pushed out of the yes. and i|are? christianity being pushed out of the yes. and i also think it's an >> yes. and i also think it's an asterisk. i think that we're also seeing parental rights being issued across the board. and so i think it has a lot to do with that. i do think that so these these issues surrounding ng sex education, gender ideology as your guest was saying, you know, they're not they're contested ideas. they are absolutely not neutral. there has been no sort of consensus in the public debate about these things . and in about these things. and in particularly in the case of northern ireland, ireland. this is very clearly imposing a particular line on children in probably against the wishes of their parents without proper consult nation, without a care in the world for what the parents think . and most parents think. and most importantly, that would be one thing if it wasn't for the fact that there's also no opt out, which is what we've also seen here in the uk as well. parents not being able to take their child out of lessons where contested are being taught

contested ideas are being taught as is and just contested as is and not just contested ideas being taught an ideas being taught in an objective sense , but contested objective sense, but contested ideas being enforced. and we've seen a lot of that in recent weeks, particularly with gender ideology . ideology. >> yeah, parents aren't even informed mean, terrible. informed. i mean, it's terrible. the standard operating procedure now seems to be if a child wants to socially transition at school, instead of telling the parents because obviously they'd want to know this want to they'd want to know this could indicative mental could be indicative of mental health condition or or unhappiness or there's a whole raft of issues there. and they don't inform the parents. it's we're seeing this gradual move. the state and state institutions are becoming the guardians and the custodians of the children rather than i think that is a safeguarding issue because you're giving far too much power to institutions and to teachers over the parents and the parents of the people who will love those most. those children the most. >> both spot on on this. >> you are both spot on on this. it's very concerned. now, before we final break, let's we take a final break, let's have what you guys have a look at what you guys have a look at what you guys have had to say about today's topics. tina says, i'm afraid topics. as tina says, i'm afraid i the words welby group

i find the words welby group terribly we live in a terribly outdated. we live in a diverse if anything, diverse society and if anything, our merely moving our archbishop is merely moving with and welcoming with the times and welcoming everyone backgrounds everyone from all backgrounds into . everyone has into the church. everyone has always been welcome into the church. point. church. tina that's the point. the church says that we are all sinners, therefore we're all welcome the church. welcome to join the church. however, we're not to be affirmed sins. we to affirmed in our sins. we are to repent and christ. that's repent and find christ. that's the of the church which the point of the church which you're to be you're which you seem to be missing. says. how can you're which you seem to be miszupdate says. how can you're which you seem to be miszupdate a says. how can you're which you seem to be miszupdate a universaliow can you're which you seem to be miszupdate a universal prayer, you update a universal prayer, which has been recited for 2000 years? the word father, years? because the word father, are allowed have are we not allowed to have mothers and fathers anymore? this i think this is truly madness. i think you're it you're right, george, and it actually what leo has actually links to what leo has just saying, that we don't just been saying, that we don't have and mothers have fathers and mothers anymore. state, the anymore. we have the state, the state owns children now. michael says.i state owns children now. michael says. i think lot of things says. i think a lot of things the we came out with are the woke we came out with are bonkers. however this bonkers. however on this occasion which occasion i agree. which occasion? a deeply occasion? there is a deeply rooted patriarchy patriarchy in the adam the church. just look at adam and we have to and eve. and if we have to change the lord's prayer to correct thinking correct correct thinking of to correct the thinking of ancestors who didn't know better those didn't know better all those years it. our years ago, then so be it. our ancestors write the ancestors didn't write the lord's prayer, jesus christ himself the lord's

himself told us the lord's prayer, christ is god. prayer, jesus christ is god. therefore, if we're going to be arrogant enough to say we need to correct thinking of god, to correct the thinking of god, then making gods of then we're making gods of ourselves. the patriarchy ourselves. and the patriarchy is not the patriarchy not a bad thing. the patriarchy is good thing. is the is a good thing. god is the ultimate, ultimate patriarch, father figure. >> at the rigs. >> look at the oil rigs. imagine. imagine monarchy imagine. imagine a monarchy building you'd building oil rigs. i mean, you'd be with crochet, but come be fine with crochet, but come on, there's stuff you need on, there's some stuff you need a for. a patriarchy for. >> you all for your thoughts. >> them coming. i also want >> keep them coming. i also want to thank my dearest emma webb and leo kearse. see soon. and leo kearse. see you soon. no doubt. up the final doubt. coming up in the final part my common sense crusade part of my common sense crusade this rewiring the this week will be rewiring the west creator evan west with film creator evan amato in his pursuit of rediscovering beauty and imploring and imploring the secret art and history vatican. he's history of the vatican. he's flown rome to be here. flown in from rome to be here. what absolute don't what an absolute gent. don't move muscle .

welcome back to the common sense crusade. as we've been discussing, the archbishop of york has suggested the lord's prayer is problem matic due to the oppressively patriarchal reference to our father . so reference to our father. so i took to twitter and asked , is took to twitter and asked, is the c of e right? is took to twitter and asked, is the c of e right ? is it time to the c of e right? is it time to update the lord's prayer ? the update the lord's prayer? the results are in. 85% of you said it's blasphemy to update the lord's prayer and 8.8% of you said it's time to modernise is 6.2% of you said other things in the comments. you can check

those out on our twitter. thank you for taking part . rewiring you for taking part. rewiring the west is a five part video series all about meaningful living by exploring the hidden art of and the history of the vatican. even amato is the face of it and he's also written a book, keys to life, all about his discoveries. book, keys to life, all about his discoveries . and he's flown his discoveries. and he's flown in all the way from italy to tell us about it. first of all, welcome, evan. thank you so much for making the effort to come here from italy. yeah, thank you. what is your project? rewire for the west. >> the west. >> so rewire the west. essentially what wants to do essentially what it wants to do is, it is pulling from the is, as it is pulling from the classics lesson from the classics life lesson from the classics life lesson from the classics and conveying those to modern audiences. i think perhaps it was the jesuits who referred to the classics as hooks to catch souls and that christians have said that too. yeah exactly. so you know, it's something that i really pulled a lot of inspiration from. and i think that there's so much rich history i've experienced a lot in my life with different art, literature and these things, literature and all these things, but this one series in question

, actually decided, you know, , i actually decided, you know, let's of the books for let's get out of the books for a little bit. let's go to rome and film something at the vatican. and so essentially talking about self—development from the life lessons history lessons and all the history that's uncovered, obviously in the church, why the history of the church, why do the west needs do you think the west needs rewiring that's loaded rewiring? oh, that's a loaded question. ask my wife , question. if you ask my wife, she'd say it's because of the french everything she'd say it's because of the frencwrong everything she'd say it's because of the frenc wrong there. everything she'd say it's because of the frencwrong there. but everything she'd say it's because of the frencwrong there. but iverything she'd say it's because of the frencwrong there. but i think|ing went wrong there. but i think i think we all know that there's a malaise. you know, culturally, we don't feel like things are where they should be. and obviously, we feel that way because there is something that is higher that we ought to be pointing to. you can't feel that something's wrong unless you've experienced something that is right or that, you know, there could be something right. and so i this cultural malaise i think this cultural malaise that experiencing, that we're experiencing, it just it wears people down, particularly through the decay of beauty . i particularly through the decay of beauty. i think particularly through the decay of beauty . i think above all, particularly through the decay of beauty. i think above all, in culture and beauty in small things. you know, this isn't like, you know, everything that you have needs to be super

ornate. but just we see this in the content we consume in the statues, public art and a lot of just, you know, the way that we comport yourself with others, even public decency on on public transportation, for example. and so anyways this return to beauty is needed. dostoyevsky said beauty will save the world and i think more importantly , there's think more importantly, there's a really important connection between beauty and truth and if we believe god to be the culmination of all truth, well , culmination of all truth, well, god is also the culmination of all beauty. there's not an ounce of god that isn't immensely beautiful . and so if god is all beautiful. and so if god is all truth and all beauty, then a return to beauty is what also orients ourselves to the divine. it allows us to essentially orient ourselves as we should be in relationship to others. >> i love this because the transcendentals of truth, beauty and goodness are where we find god. that's they direct our gaze back towards god. and feel back towards god. and i feel like moment in our like at the moment in our culture, things are being culture, these things are being attacked truth is attacked, but the truth is constantly being attacked.

goodness but goodness is being attacked. but beauty when we look beauty as well. when we look around anything that's around us today, anything that's built century is built in the 21st century is generally ugly. you know, new buildings, glass, buildings, for example, glass, steel, nothing steel, if not concrete. nothing is a bigger purpose . is built with a bigger purpose. and so is your project. i believe it is trying to recenter that focus and trying to bring beauty back into our lives. >> absolutely. absolutely and trying to show the importance of it just just this morning. so my flight delayed about three flight was delayed about three hours this morning. and had hours this morning. and i had a lot extra time to read. and lot of extra time to read. and so while was reading, i pulled so while i was reading, i pulled a from torso. he's a little bit from torso. he's this poet stopping any this italian poet stopping any italian on the street. knew italian on the street. they knew who i mean, second in who torso is. i mean, second in line to dante, but virtually unknown english speaking unknown in the english speaking world, unfortunately. but he has this line that talks about this great line that talks about it , says something along the it, says something along the lines of men have hearts that poetry will win when the truth is seasoned in beautiful rhyme , is seasoned in beautiful rhyme, it wins those hearts . so it wins those hearts. so essentially, when you take something he was referring to poetry, but when you take an art form, it and when the truth is

seasoned in sweet rhyme, it lures and leads men in essentially something like that. but what i'm trying to get at is that this idea is that the beauty is what conveys the truth. it's what pulls you into truth. it's what pulls you into truth . okay? men have heart, truth. okay? men have heart, sweet poetry will win. that's the actual line. and so sweet poetry. well, what about sweet art? what about sweet beauty? what about , art? what about sweet beauty? what about, you art? what about sweet beauty? what about , you know, all these what about, you know, all these different things? they pull you to them. so obviously, you're to them. so obviously, if you're going where do going to attack truth, where do you you actually start you start? you actually start with beauty and you the with beauty and you kill the ideal of you just say that, ideal of it. you just say that, oh, no, beauty objective or oh, no, beauty is objective or it exist because it doesn't exist because if you destroy that, you're also destroying the idea of truth and it's affront to god. >> it's an affront to absolutely. >> when did being art? >> when did art stop being art? because i look around at because when i look around at the modern, example, the tate modern, for example, and at tracey emin's and i look at tracey emin's messed up bed, i think that's no art because there's no mastery, there's skill involved there's no skill involved and it's beautiful. not it's not beautiful. it's not good art good or truthful either. but art used be. i mean, look at for used to be. i mean, look at for me, the renaissance period is the of, western

the peak of, of western civilisation when art was not about it wasn't the selfish about us, it wasn't the selfish creator trying to his mark creator trying to put his mark on world or it wasn't on the world or it wasn't always. it often about always. it was often about reminding the reminding people about the presence when you presence of god. when do you think stopped think that stopped being the case? not sure the exact date >> i'm not sure the exact date that would be, but i know that there's pivotal moment. and there's a pivotal moment. and that moment is when that pivotal moment is when duchamp, as we know, his urinal that put the art museum. i that he put in the art museum. i think that's something that's really but the actual really key. but but the actual thing often miss is thing that people often miss is that in fact, him putting the urinal in the art museum was not him trying to pass the urinal as art. it was him saying the elite is so ridiculous that i can submit this as art and it will get in. so he was actually in on the joke. and so i think if you want to look up the date of that and then i'd go back at least a generation because the, the, the cultural elite had to have gone to position where were to the position where they were able you know, this is able to say, you know, this is essentially it is, but essentially what it is, but maybe actually out and maybe to actually zoom out and get specific, i think truly get more specific, i think truly after world war i in particular, you see this on a lot of continental art. i surrealism

that developed out of europe right after the first world war was it was so absurd and chaotic because people just had experienced something that's so incredibly traumatic . and so incredibly traumatic. and so i think it was a people if you want to look at it gracefully, i think it's a people really trying to come to terms with this is senseless destroy action and how do we handle that . and and how do we handle that. and so part of what perhaps the generation that grew up in the in the aftermath of that, what they said is beauty doesn't they said is that beauty doesn't exist. it'sjust they said is that beauty doesn't exist. it's just to the world is too terrible that this ideal can actually exist. and stuff stem from so is there from that. so is there a particular period or a particular period or a particular group of artists that your work is focusing on? no i love to pull from the rich cultural tradition that we have in culture. when i first in western culture. when i first started this project, one of my friends, said , what about friends, mom, said, what about the east? and i said, the east has many beautiful things, but you know , the west we have you know, the west we have increased . incredible. it's such increased. incredible. it's such an incredible cultural inheritance of music , of art, of inheritance of music, of art, of literature. there's so much to

pull from dante shakespeare to, you know, chaucer, all these people not obviously bach, beethoven, mozart. you could go on for days. and there's so much to explore there. and i think really , at least in my really, at least in my education, i don't know how yours was, but i never truly got the experience to be able to engage , racked with those engage, racked with those things. but those have been the things. but those have been the things that have most saved my life. when i'm most life. like when i'm most overwhelmed with the craziness of the world, what do i do? i turn to beauty and it's such a respite from all chaos. respite from all that chaos. >> absolutely . so where can >> absolutely. so where can people find your product ? people find your video product? >> rewire the west is >> youtube at rewire the west is the name of the channel. and then there's also rewire the.com on at rewire west on twitter at rewire the west anywhere you want to look. >> absolutely. showing >> absolutely. we're showing some viewers some clips for our viewers at home is home right now. it is a beautiful project. i highly recommend you've also recommend this. you've also written book. what's the book written a book. what's the book on and when is that available? >> is called keys to >> so the book is called keys to life. available for life. it's available for pre—order. watch any pre—order. now, if you watch any of videos, there's a link of the videos, there's a link in the description. and if you go on website, there's also

on the website, there's also a page menu that will take page in the menu that will take you rewire the west, slash you to rewire the west, slash keys to life. but essentially what it is, is it's looking at the life putting on the keys to life putting on obviously the keys to heaven and earth, peter at the earth, giving a peter at the vatican. kind vatican. so it's what are kind of archetypal life lessons of the archetypal life lessons that take from these that we can take from these things . so that we can take from these things. so for example, the that we can take from these things . so for example, the last things. so for example, the last video the series, it's video in the series, it's talking story the talking about the story of the appian way, peter's appian way, where peter's heading rome. he heading outside of rome. he comes and jesus comes across jesus and jesus asks quovadis, where you asks quovadis, where are you going? peter's like, oh, you going? and peter's like, oh, you know, i'm kind of getting out of rome because, you know, i don't want to get all this stuff going on. it was crazy at the time and jesus just said, all right, well, i'm on my way rome to well, i'm on my way to rome to be and so what does be crucified. and so what does peter has to turn peter do? well, he has to turn back, i essentially take this back, so i essentially take this archetype. you know, one of these chapters and expand on that how is this that and say how how is this something can learn in something that we can learn in our life? like, how can taking up metaphorically our life? like, how can taking up way, metaphorically our life? like, how can taking up way, in metaphorically our life? like, how can taking up way, in whateverorically our life? like, how can taking up way, in whatever struggle, that way, in whatever struggle, whatever that whatever difficulty that you have actually a life of have actually give you a life of meaning by turning around, heading rome, you know, heading into rome, you know, going are going after the things that are most likely to cause you to

suffer and struggle . but in suffer and struggle. but in christ the most meaning is found there. absolutely. that was profound. >> i want everyone to look up your stuff online that was the author and founder of rewire the west. evan, thank you very much for coming. >> thank you so much. >> thank you so much. >> now, each week on the show, we to end with our closing we like to end with our closing prayer and this week we'll hear the collect for the fifth sunday after trinity. read by from after trinity. read by izzy from lvs school . lvs ascot school. >> grant 0 lord, we beseech thee that in the course of this world may be so peacefully, peacefully ordered by the governance that thy church may joyfully serve thee in all glad quietness through jesus christ our lord. amen you've been watching calvin's common sense crusade with me, calvin robinson, the saturday five are up next. >> god bless you. have a good one. take care. >> that warm feeling inside from boxed boilers . proud sponsors of
