Our guest shares recent developments from his case, highlighting the lack of transparency and procedural injustices in the California family court system. He discusses Judge Mark Juhas's ruling and criticizes the judiciary for being influenced by money and special interests, painting a picture of a system that operates more like an oligarchy than a fair arbiter.

The guest connects his personal struggle with larger political movements, advocating for increased accountability in child welfare and medical practices around transgender issues.
We also delve into innovative advocacy methods, like the "Save James Coin," where cryptocurrency is used not just for funding but for community activism.

Bob of Speakers Corner
Wednesday Dec 11, 2024
Wednesday Dec 11, 2024
In this episode of the podcast, the host discusses various aspects of Bob’s work as a Christian evangelist, particularly in relation to Islam. Bob, who is commonly recognized for his presence at Speaker’s Corner in London, shares insights on his experiences and the importance of effectively engaging with Islamic teachings while presenting Christian faith. The conversation delves into the dynamics of Islam in contemporary society, questioning whether it is thriving at the expense of a weakened Christianity or a confused liberalism.At the outset, Bob provides an introduction to his work as an evangelist, inspired by the groundwork laid by Jay Smith. He articulates the necessity of educating Christians about Islam and how to counter the traditional Dawa arguments that many Muslims present. For Bob, the emphasis is not merely on deconstructing Islamic narratives but rather on effectively presenting Christ amidst these discussions. By framing a strong defense of Christianity, he believes Christians can better engage in conversations with Muslims.The dialogue then transitions to the confidence perceived in Islam today. Bob clarifies the distinction between Islam as a doctrine and Muslims as individuals, emphasizing that the current momentum seen within the Muslim community is more reflective of the sociological landscape rather than an inherent strength in Islamic teachings. He discusses how Muslims capitalize on a legalistic and argumentative tradition that is engrained in their culture, contrasting it with the more narrative-driven and less confrontational approach of many Christians.Bob raises important points regarding the differing societal influences that shape Muslim and Christian communities. He comments on how Islamic teachings encourage a strong communal identity which allows Muslims to rally together and assert their presence in public discourse. By juxtaposing this with the current state of Christianity, he observes that many Christians have adopted a more passive stance, often influenced by liberal values that neglect the importance of religious identity and engagement in societal issues.The discussion also underscores the multifaceted perceptions Muslims may have regarding Christians. While some may view Christians as allies due to shared Abrahamic roots, others, especially within more radical circles, may see them as adversaries, particularly when confronted with assertive Christian outreach. Bob points out the importance of understanding these dynamics to effectively engage with Muslims and address misconceptions on both sides.Turning to the church, Bob critiques the liberal tendencies that have crept into many Christian denominations, particularly the Church of England. He notes that many church leaders operate more like social clubs rather than as strong advocates of the Christian faith, often prioritizing comfort over confrontation and truth-telling. This has resulted in a church that appears fearful of engaging with critical issues in society, undermining its ability to present a firm theological stance.Bob further explores the implications of cultural displays of faith, contrasting Islam's public assertion of identity with the often muted expressions of faith among Christians. He highlights that while Muslims do dress and act in a way that openly signals their beliefs, many Christians lack similar cultural manifestations, leading to a dilution of their religious identity in public spaces. This raises questions about the necessity for Christians to reclaim a robust public presence.Towards the conclusion, Bob emphasizes the need for Christians to engage in active evangelism that goes beyond mere tolerance and acceptance. He calls for a resurgence of a confident Christian identity that is unafraid to challenge prevailing cultural narratives and assert the truth of the Gospel in public life. The conversation culminates in a call to action for Christians to develop a vision for a new Christendom, effectively pushing back against cultural and ideological adversities while maintaining love and service for one another.Listeners are ultimately encouraged to explore resources from Bob’s YouTube channel, engage in thoughtful dialogue, and participate in discipleship classes for further education on these critical issues. The episode serves as a potent reminder of the need for a confident, informed, and active Christian presence in a rapidly changing sociopolitical landscape.

The Week According To . . .
Saturday Dec 07, 2024
Saturday Dec 07, 2024
n this episode, I sit down with Hermann Kelly, the leader of the Irish Freedom Party, to analyze the outcomes of the recent Irish elections and discuss broader political themes in Ireland and Europe. The conversation begins with an examination of the political shift where Fianna Fáil has emerged as the largest party, highlighting a coalition government that many perceive as having moved away from traditional nationalist values towards a more globalist and secular approach. Kelly discusses how the Irish Freedom Party has been working to steer the political conversation back towards nationalism, particularly in contrast to parties like Sinn Féin, which he argues have strayed from their nationalist origins.
We explore the Irish Freedom Party's electoral gains and its role in diminishing Sinn Féin's voter base, despite facing significant media bias and exclusion from mainstream platforms. Kelly notes the rise of independent candidates and a decline in support for established parties, signaling a transformation in Ireland's political landscape driven by public discontent with "woke" politics.
The dialogue then turns to immigration, with Kelly pointing out a public shift towards viewing current immigration levels as too high, advocating for a more open national discussion on border control and its socio-economic impacts.
On the topic of criminal justice, Kelly criticizes the perceived leniency towards sexual offenders and calls for judicial reforms to focus more on public safety and victim justice rather than just prison overcrowding concerns.
The discussion broadens to include European political dynamics, particularly the situation in France with Macron's recent challenges, and how these reflect a broader populist surge. Kelly draws parallels with other European nationalist movements, suggesting there are lessons to be learned for the Irish Freedom Party.
Lastly, we address the climate agenda, with Kelly critiquing the current 'net zero' policies for their economic impact. He calls for a more balanced approach to energy policy that considers both environmental and economic viability, suggesting Ireland should explore alternatives like nuclear and tidal power.
This episode provides a deep dive into the complexities of Irish politics, the resurgence of nationalist sentiments, and the implications for European politics, emphasizing the need for a return to pragmatic and community-focused governance.
