I have a vision that I need your assistance, darling.
0:28
I see a future of perfection, sinners and shining.
0:33
I'm inviting you to text how it could because I know it's been
0:38
so long and you can know we can face the enemy.
0:44
Then you'll see a song. Wrong.
0:50
I'll show you when to begin. Play all your riches and spins
0:54
at the moment of the godly cross.
1:01
Well, hello, ladies and gentlemen.
1:03
My name is Brett Keene and you are watching and listening to
1:06

1:08

Mondays through Friday, 7:00 PM Central.
1:40
You will see other shows throughout the week of the
1:43
weekend. If I'm doing a show with someone
1:45
else because I tend to broadcast their content through my channel
1:50

1:56
international radio station if you'd like to listen to that.
1:59
The links are in the description.
2:00
Also for those out there who say you'd like to donate to me and
2:04
support me, I have a PayPal and a cash app.
2:07
If you're up for it. I personally would recommend
2:10
going to my store and buying some of my T-shirts and cool
2:13
stuff like that. I get paid and plus you get to
2:15
walk around with a cool wardrobe.
2:18
I'm pretty damn good at designing, ladies and gentlemen.
2:21
I haven't heard any criticisms or complaints from anybody.
2:25
All right, so I'm going to answer a question and then I'm
2:28
going to talk about a some very personal experiences and also
2:33
atheist parenting. I've been having some questions.
2:37
e-mail me and leave comments where they say so.
2:41
Brett Keene, are you a Satanist now?
2:43
I think some of these people are actually atheists who are also
2:47
asking that question. Now that I'm hanging out with
2:50
Satanist a lot, this somehow to them logically means I must be a
2:55
Satanist. I guess if I hang out with
2:57
Democrats for a week and talk to them about politics, whether I
3:01
agree with them or disagree with them, I'm just automatically a
3:04
Democrat. That's it.
3:07
Kind of reminds me of the way it was in high school.
3:09
If you hang out with someone who's not very popular, you know
3:13
somebody will come along and say why do you hang out with that
3:16
pimple faced obese kid for? Why are you going to lunch and
3:20
sitting down with them ugly girls for you know, are you, is
3:25
there something wrong with you or blah blah blah.
3:28
No, I just enjoy people, and I don't want physical appearances
3:32
or the surface. Bring me to a point where I
3:37
condemn or judge people just based upon a label or what they
3:41
look like or anything like that. I haven't always been the sexy
3:46
beast myself. I haven't always been this
3:49
handsome older man that my wife can't keep her hands off of.
3:54
You know, I've had my days where I wasn't so pretty and beautiful
3:57
myself, and thank goodness there were good people out there who
4:01
accepted me for who I was, whether it was a bad day or a
4:05
good day. No.
4:06
But I do consider these Satanist and the pagans that I've spoken
4:10
to, the warlocks and the witches and people of all different
4:13
religions, a lot of them. I am proud to say I have made
4:17
friends and that's the reason why I'm on the Internet, ladies
4:22
and gentlemen. It's not just so I can make
4:23
videos and make you laugh for 5 minutes and then I go on my day.
4:27
I enjoy meeting people. I enjoy talking to people.
4:30
I enjoy hearing about people's lives and how they dealt with
4:34
tragedies or positive events in their existence.
4:37
I mean, that's the human experience.
4:41
I'm getting up there in age, ladies and gentlemen.
4:43
I'm 47. I'm going to be 50 in a few
4:46
years, and basically I'm pretty much if my health keeps on going
4:52
bad like it is, I'm pretty much at 80% of the end of my life,
4:57
you know, It is what it is. So I would like to just be able
5:02
to get along with people, have good conversation and enjoy
5:06
other people's company. Is that OK?
5:09
All right. I'm glad you gave me permission
5:11
to do that. So atheist parenting.
5:18
One of the things that got me thinking about the whole atheist
5:21
parenting thing is I've seen non-stop over the years where
5:26
atheists will claim that Christians indoctrinate children
5:30
by teaching your child that there's consequences for sins of
5:34
the wrongs that you do in the world.
5:37
By teaching your child that there might be an eternal
5:40
damnation place where you go to suffer for all eternity.
5:44
Or in my case, I am an Annihilationist, where I believe
5:48
that if you don't make the grade, your soul is terminated,
5:53
it's annihilated, and you simply don't exist in any realm or form
5:58
in the universe. You're not even a memory
6:00
anymore. You become nonexistent.
6:04
But is it wrong to tell a child that a lot of atheists have
6:07
argued it's child abuse, It's terrible.
6:09
It scares kids. I'm under the belief that
6:13
children are a lot smarter than what a lot of these people give
6:17
them credit for. I'm under the belief that there
6:20
are children out there that are 100 times more intelligent than
6:24
some of their counterparts. I know for a fact there are kids
6:27
out there that are sometimes, depending on what the subject
6:30
matter is, are actually more qualified and more intelligent
6:35
to do something than even their own parents.
6:37
Give you an example, when I started out on computers, I
6:41
didn't know what I was doing. I had no idea what the hell I
6:44
was doing, but it was funny because I had some nephews and
6:48
there were kids in my family who'd seem to know how to turn
6:52
the thing on, operate the system, go in through the
6:55
software, teach me how to open up an Internet browser, all
6:59
kinds of things. Hell, I even had a young person
7:01
teach me how to install a a virus protector, you know, one
7:05
of them programs that protect your computer from getting
7:09
destroyed. So, I mean, I could go on all
7:13
day about the the quality and intelligence of children.
7:17
I think it's it's foolish for us to say, well, someone's this
7:21
age, so they Poss they don't possibly have any kind of value
7:25
whatsoever and they couldn't teach us nothing because we're
7:29
too old, they're too young. That game just doesn't work.
7:33
I've noticed even since I was a young person, there was a lot of
7:37
things about me that were special, Very intelligent, very
7:42
open minded that a lot of my adult family members simply did
7:46
not share with me. I did not inherit their traits
7:49
of being close minded and you know, all wrapped up into myself
7:54
or narcissistic. So it is what it is.
7:59
But as many of you know, I used to be an atheist.
8:02
I used to spend a good chunk of my life whenever I was a young
8:07
man, going after religion, bashing the Bible, bashing
8:11
Christians and all this. And it finally came to a point
8:15
in my life where I ended up meeting the the beautiful woman
8:19
that would be my wife. She's my only wife.
8:22
I've never been married. More than once I married her
8:25
whenever she was young. We were kids.
8:28
We got together, we identified, we related.
8:32
She didn't have hardly any family.
8:34
I didn't have hardly any family myself.
8:38
I mean, we had people, but some of them either didn't want to
8:42
have anything to do with us or anybody else or they, they just
8:47
weren't friendly people. They wanted to be hermits and to
8:50
themselves and to try to get any kind of help or support.
8:55
Yeah, right. You know, well as a a person who
9:03
was young and then me and my wife, we found out that she was
9:08
pregnant and all that with our with our first child or son.
9:14
I remember thinking to myself while she's pregnant, Goodness,
9:17
gracious. A whole lot of thoughts started
9:19
going through my head that I hadn't really thought about.
9:22
You know, how am I going to do this obviously, financially,
9:26
what kind of things am I going to say to this kid?
9:29
What kind of things should me and my son do whenever he
9:33
finally is in the world with me and his mother?
9:38
What kind of things are we going to talk about?
9:41
And I found myself over the 9th nine month period in a very
9:48
strange position. You see, whenever I was an
9:51
atheist, I rarely ever reflected on myself and what I had to give
9:57
or what I had to offer. My tone and aggression was
10:01
always towards what other people believed in their views and then
10:05
to tear them down and tear down their hope and their position on
10:11
what they thought life and their world you meant.
10:15
But I because I spent so much time doing that, I never really
10:18
thought, well, who is Brett Keene really?
10:22
Besides Brett Keene doing YouTube videos besides Brett
10:25
Keene talking on, you know, various radios besides Brett
10:29
Keene writing books. Who am I and what do I, what do
10:34
I contribute to not only my wife who is pregnant, but what am I
10:38
going to contribute to any children that I bring into this
10:40
world? I even started having a lot of
10:43
negative thoughts like this world is shit, it's garbage.
10:48
Why would anybody want to bring children into the world?
10:51
And I even started listening to some atheists out there who
10:54
called themselves anti natalist, who believed that it was cruel
10:59
and terrible and horrible to bring children into the world.
11:02
So that really started like putting pressure on me because I
11:07
started thinking to myself, am IA shitty person.
11:10
All these fellow atheists are saying bringing children into
11:13
the world's a horrific thing to do.
11:15
Why would somebody do that? You know, especially if you're
11:19
an atheist. At the time, I believed that if
11:22
you brought if you're an atheist kid or a teenager, then you're
11:26
probably going to get mocked or screwed with at school and your
11:30
entire life. You're going to have to argue
11:32
your position and all that. And although I found myself in a
11:35
position where sometimes I liked arguing and debating, it's not
11:40
something that my wife enjoyed. It's not something that I
11:44
thought that my children might inherit the desire to argue with
11:48
people and win debates and arguments and such.
11:54
No, I I felt like at that point, a lot of the shit that I thought
12:00
that I did really good and that I thought that I was
12:03
accomplishing really didn't mean Dick in the grand scale of
12:07
things. It wasn't going to help my wife
12:09
any, for sure. It wasn't going to pay our
12:11
bills, and it sure as hell wasn't something you could raise
12:14
your kids up on. Oh, guess what your daddy did,
12:17
You know, guess what kind of debate I had?
12:20
Just what kind of, you know, how many atheists cheered me on
12:24
today on social media that I'll never meet or never even know?
12:31
So you start reflecting, you start looking at yourself in the
12:34
mirror and you start saying, am I even going to be a good dad?
12:39
I didn't have like a good mother and father growing up.
12:42
I had a father who left at a very young age.
12:45
I lost my grandmother from cancer at a very young age and
12:49
she was the only person in the family who actually wanted to
12:52
have anything to do with me. And my mother was sick.
12:55
She was absolutely undependable and contributed really nothing
13:00
to my existence whatsoever. So I had nobody that I could
13:04
look at and say that's what it means to be a mom or a dad.
13:09
Unfortunately, I made the mistake for a little while
13:12
there, growing up, watch and leave at the Beaver and these
13:16
black and white television shows.
13:18
And I started getting so immersed inside of TV and what
13:22
the hell I was seeing on the boob screen that I started
13:25
thinking that that's what a family is.
13:28
That's what a mom and dad ought to be, you know, You know Wally
13:31
Cleaver and you know the Beeves and all that.
13:35
The Jeffersons are these nice family members.
13:38
But of course there were Al Bundy and you know, the Married
13:44
with Children, where the family was absolutely dysfunctional and
13:48
shit. There was, of course, all these
13:52
other shows. Some of them were positive,
13:54
others bad, but either way, I didn't.
13:58
At the end of the day, I felt like none of these people are
14:03
real. Is that really what I'm going to
14:06
do? Is that what I'm going to base
14:07
being a dad darn or a mom by, you know, mimicking some
14:11
scripted bullshit that was done back in 1950 before they even
14:16
invented fucking color? Is that really what's going to
14:19
be me as a parent? A lot of things started going
14:27
through my head. I knew that at some point in
14:31
time. My kids, when I have children,
14:34
they were going to ask me a lot of shit.
14:37
Kids are they. They're commonly, I mean,
14:41
anybody that's ever had a kid or you've got a nephew or children
14:45
in your family, you know that they come to you with this, this
14:51
automatic trust where they, they want to know things and they
14:55
expect you to protect them. They expect you to care for
14:58
them. They expect you to lead them and
15:00
guide them in the right direction.
15:03
They expect you to tell them also that they're special, why
15:06
they're important. But they also want to know, why
15:09
am I here? Why did you bring me into this
15:12
world? And sooner or later, eventually,
15:15
they're going to see the people around them that are supposed to
15:17
be protecting them and loving them die.
15:22
And then the questions come right When the kids stand on the
15:26
side of the church, sees the body of someone they loved in a
15:30
box. When they're seeing somebody
15:32
lowered into a hole, you got that kid going?
15:35
Where's Grandma going? Where's where's Barb going?
15:42
What? What's what's happening?
15:44
Why are they throwing dirt? Why is she in a box?
15:48
Mommy and Daddy, or if you do cremation.
15:53
I've had family members who are were cremated to try to explain
15:58
to a child that that entire person that they used to talk to
16:02
and listen to is now pretty much a fucking ashtray.
16:08
Basically the ashes of an ashtray dumped into a fucking
16:11
generic vase. These are all the kind of
16:16
questions you got to deal with whenever you're dealing with
16:19
children. And if you ignore them and you
16:24
refuse to answer their question and you refuse to be there when
16:28
they need you and back them up when they need protection, and
16:33
you don't remind them on a daily basis how valuable and important
16:37
and how much you love them. If you don't do that and
16:41
eventually they're going to think you're a piece of shit,
16:44
they're going to think that you belong in a fucking box and you
16:46
belong in a hole somewhere because you're no good to them,
16:50
You're not keeping them safe, you're not making them happy,
16:53
and you bring nothing to their fucking life.
16:56
So there's a lot of kids out there that they begin rebelling.
17:00
They begin looking for people who care for them, and that's
17:04
why you get a lot of kids that end up on drugs and then gangs
17:08
or hanging out with these shitty little bastards who are also
17:12
having some of the same problems in their life.
17:14
And then the kids start identifying with each other.
17:17
They go, oh, my mom and dad sucks you and my mom and dad
17:20
sucks too. You know, we they don't want me
17:24
to have any kind of fun. Let's go out and fuck something
17:26
up. Yeah, let's light some fireworks
17:29
and aim it at some old lady's house or some shit or wrap
17:32
somebody's fucking trees up a toilet paper or whatever.
17:36
Whatever creative idea comes into that head, you know, or
17:40
hey, let's fucking you. Did you watch a speed racer?
17:44
Let's get in a car and fly down the fucking highway and and see
17:48
how that works out for us, you know, kind of like we do in
17:51
Grand Theft Auto to have a little bit of fun, you know?
17:59
So I I realize all this. I've always been a person that's
18:03
very sensitive to other people's views and their feelings.
18:07
Unless someone aggravates me or they intentionally attacked me,
18:11
I normally start out 100%. I'm concerned and care about
18:16
their views. I want to learn about this
18:19
person. I want to understand this
18:20
person. It's not until they attack me or
18:24
I or I sense that they're trolling me that I start getting
18:28
mean. But back to what I was saying,
18:33
even after all that nine months of going back and forth in my
18:37
head, how am I going to do this? Because I seen myself as an
18:40
atheist parent at the time, I wasn't.
18:44
Even when my son was in the womb of my wife, I hadn't.
18:50
I wasn't even in the in the direction of going towards
18:54
Christianity or theism at this point.
18:57
I was still fucking far garn. I was lost.
19:02
So I got no manual, no instructions, don't know what to
19:06
do. But my wife kept on assuring me.
19:10
She said you've got a good heart, you're a good man and
19:13
you've always been good by me. So I I believe that you'll make
19:18
a a great father because I would bring it up with her.
19:21
I'm like, what do I have? What what can I give our our
19:25
child? You'll be fine, honey.
19:29
I mean, just the fact that you're even asking these
19:31
questions and you're concerned about how to behave and what to
19:35
say shows that you care and that you love and that we're actually
19:39
communicating this and you're not just balling it up inside.
19:45
So my son's born, and obviously for the first few years didn't
19:50
have to worry about the questions.
19:51
I just had to worry about shitty diapers, making sure the bottles
19:55
not too hot, not too cold, making sure you burp the baby,
20:01
you know, saying to the baby, all this kind of stuff.
20:04
But obviously my son ended up getting older and the questions
20:08
started coming. And during this entire time, I
20:13
kept on trying to prepare myself and and think about it.
20:17
And I remember whenever he was born and the same effect
20:20
happened on me whenever my daughter was born to where I
20:24
thought, my goodness, look at this little creature laying here
20:30
under this warm light. And it just melted my heart
20:35
whenever I seen the doctor give the baby over to my wife.
20:38
And she's hold it. And I'm kind of standing back a
20:42
little bit and all just going, wow, we did that, we we did this
20:49
great thing, you know, Oh my goodness.
20:53
And then of course, I made my way up towards her as well as
20:56
the baby and rubbed the baby and ran my hands through her hair.
21:00
And she's all sweaty. And I remember thinking to
21:06
myself, something clicked in that very moment.
21:10
It's very hard to explain, but there's just something that
21:14
clicks in a man whenever he sees his kid bought into the world
21:17
and sees his wife going through that process of bringing a kid
21:21
in the world. There's something that just
21:23
snaps into place where it says, I will give my life for these
21:28
people before me. No one will ever lay their
21:32
fucking hands on these two. I will give everything and
21:36
anything that it takes just so I can see a smile on your face.
21:42
I will fight tooth and nail. I will go through hell and back
21:47
with gasoline soaked underwear just to make sure that they get
21:51
everything that they need. That's the kind of shit that
21:54
goes through your head whenever you bring a kid in, and at the
21:57
same time you're just in total fucking awe.
22:00
Everything's different when you have a child.
22:03
When you see the sunrise or you look up at the heavens and you
22:08
see the stars, There's an extra twinkle there.
22:11
The sun is extra brighter. The universe seems as though it
22:15
suddenly envelops hope. Things don't seem so empty and
22:20
dark and and painful anymore. Suddenly you realize I may not
22:26
have had a lot of things before, and there may not have been a
22:29
lot of people in my life, but I've just proven to myself and
22:33
my wife, proven to herself that we could actually build our own
22:37
family and we can actually do things differently than the
22:41
other people in our family. We could actually be a good mom
22:44
and dad if we could just figure out what that means.
22:48
We knew that we wanted the love, but what does it actually mean?
22:55
Strangely enough, to it didn't take very long.
22:58
Where during the few years of taking care of a baby, you start
23:02
thinking every once in a while you start having these weird
23:06
thoughts like huh, I wonder what it would be like having billions
23:11
of children. I wonder what it would be like
23:14
if I were an advanced entity that decided to terraform a
23:18
world and see that with all these life forms and creatures
23:23
and give them everything they possibly could want and all the
23:26
resources they need in order to survive.
23:30
I started really contemplating God is a Father and not just
23:34
some kind of invisible stranger or absentee landlord up in the
23:38
sky. I started thinking, here I am.
23:43
I actually witnessed a miracle. I've seen life come into the
23:47
world from life, and it started really changing everything for
23:52
me, for my theological views, my philosophical views, everything.
24:00
So finally it came the time when my son asked me, he said, and I
24:06
told him all the time I said I love you, I love you, I love
24:08
you. But he liked hearing me say it.
24:10
So he's like, Dad, you love me. And so Yep, I do with all my
24:15
heart. Why?
24:17
Because you are my son and you're perfect in every way.
24:23
Why It just the question started pouring in.
24:32
He even asked me questions like where was I before I was in
24:37
mommy's tummy. Oh goodness gracious.
24:43
This is where you have to give this kind of biological
24:46
discussion to a child. Or you can say, you can say it
24:52
from a Christian point of view where you say, well, God had
24:55
already had it planned that you would be with us.
24:59
And that's a lot easier than going, oh, well, you were one in
25:04
a million, you know, little tadpoles floating around and
25:08
daddy's cul-de-sac. And you got lucky while billions
25:13
of other little life forms ended up dying in the race.
25:18
But you were strong enough to make it, you know, I mean, it
25:21
sounds kind of kind of sporty, doesn't it?
25:24
A little bit. But it doesn't really sound like
25:29
there's value there. It's like, oh, I I got lucky.
25:32
Did I? Very good.
25:36
What happens when we die? I remember hearing these
25:39
questions whenever we were putting family members in the
25:42
ground. And I remember thinking to
25:47
myself, you know what? Maybe I should share a couple
25:51
different views and not just my own, I'd said at the time with
25:56
my son. I said it's possible that the
26:01
person is asleep and they're simply never going to wake up,
26:04
and that the material and the property, their bodies will
26:08
become a part of the universe again and go back into the the
26:12
structure of energy that is out there.
26:16
And of course, that question brought, oh, does the energy
26:20
come back? Does it recombine itself?
26:25
Can it come back in the same form?
26:27
And then you start getting into weird shit.
26:29
That sounds a hell of a lot like reincarnation.
26:32
And then I thought of it. I said, But there's also people
26:35
out there who believe in the concept of a God.
26:39
So obviously the next question is, So what is God?
26:42
Well, they believed that there was this entity that existed
26:45
before the universe, that consciously created everything
26:50
that is alive and that exists. And at some point in time, this
26:55
entity will come to collect, and it takes back all those who have
27:00
died, all those who are asleep, and it reassembles their energy
27:07
and their components and everything they were made-up.
27:11
And then at some point in time, these people get to join their
27:14
loved ones in another realm, perhaps another interdimensional
27:19
area. So I found that it was a lot
27:26
more interesting and it seemed like it was a lot more honest
27:30
because not only was I telling my kid what my side of what
27:35
could be possible, but I was also telling my child some of
27:39
the things that I learned that could also be possible because I
27:45
couldn't disprove a negative. And I also couldn't make the
27:48
positive assertion without knowledge and full 100% grasp on
27:54
reality that I couldn't just say something like this isn't real,
28:00
you know? So even in my videos, things
28:03
started improving. I realized children are probably
28:08
going to be watching me. They're going to be listening to
28:10
me. I should probably talk to the
28:13
kids that are watching out there, and young people the same
28:15
way I talk to my own kids, not treat them somehow different.
28:20
I stopped calling religious people stupid, 'cause I realized
28:24
the more and more I thought about what they were saying and
28:27
what their beliefs were, there wasn't really anything stupid
28:30
about it. It wasn't anything irrational
28:33
about believing that there was more to the universe than what
28:37
meets the eye. I mean, literally, the universe
28:41
is supposedly 200 billion light years all the way from here,
28:45
expanding down to the singularity that once existed in
28:49
the remnants of it. And I can only I can barely see
28:53
a planet that is in my own damn solar system.
28:56
How am I going to sit here and tell you what realities will
29:01
limit or allow you see? So at that point, aren't I just
29:08
started telling people, look, this is my view at this point in
29:12
time, but this is also the theistic view.
29:17
This is what I've heard from Christians, Muslims and Jews.
29:21
This is what I've heard from pagans and yadda yadda yadda.
29:25
There was nothing wrong with it. I'm simply sharing ideas and
29:28
sharing what I've heard. I'm sharing my experiences.
29:31
I'm sharing why people thought the way they did.
29:35
And it was a good idea because as my son gets older, he's going
29:39
to end up running into people with all kinds of different
29:42
views and ideas. It was best for him to know what
29:45
he was getting himself into as he got older, so he wouldn't be
29:49
surprised or shocked whenever he ran into people that had
29:52
completely different ideas on his own.
29:56
And at the end of the day, I told him, look, what's important
29:59
is that you are happy in your life.
30:02
What's important is that you feel content and that you are
30:06
happy and that you're able to get along with people the best
30:10
you can. If you want to survive in this
30:13
world, then you have to be able to make connections, you have to
30:16
be able to not have some kind of social disorder.
30:21
You got to be able to accept that not everyone thinks or acts
30:25
like you, and as long as you can be open minded, as long as
30:30
you're willing to question yourself and things around you,
30:33
then you'll be the purest skeptic of all and your life
30:38
will be much more full that way too.
30:46
So yeah, but even while all this was going on and I started the
30:54
transition over to Christianity, I started having atheists say,
30:58
So what are you teaching your kids?
31:00
You know, are you teaching them about hell now or you teaching
31:03
them that homosexuality is wrong?
31:06
You know, are you doing the Westboro Baptist Church thing?
31:10
You know, are you teaching your kids the stupidity?
31:13
Do you Santa Claus still real and all this kind of shit?
31:18
And I remember thinking to myself, you know, I was an
31:22
atheist, what would you? And I even asked some atheists
31:27
one time on my show. I said, let's say for a minute
31:30
that you were a dad and you had kids.
31:33
What would you teach them if they ask you where they come
31:36
from? And the atheist said, well, I
31:39
would tell him that we evolved from primates and you know, you
31:43
saw the fancy evolutionary names.
31:46
And I go, and then what? Because the kids going to go,
31:49
why? Why?
31:51
And they go, well, before that I was my ancestors were
31:55
transitional thing that looked like a cross between a hybrid
31:58
monkey and a rat. And then you know if you keep
32:01
going back, we became amphibians, we're reptilian.
32:06
And before that I was a fucking fish floating around in the
32:09
water. Yeah.
32:11
Why? Why?
32:12
Well, before that, before I mutated and grew some arms like
32:16
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the sewer after being engaged
32:19
and interacting with mutagen, I was smiled on the rock that got
32:23
hit by lightning under some of the craziest conditions on the
32:27
planet Earth. And that's how I came to life.
32:31
It was basically Planet of the Apes meets Frankenstein.
32:34
Lightning hits the dead inanimate object, it becomes
32:38
alive. And voila.
32:43
Well, kids obviously going to ask, OK, So what happened before
32:47
that? Now?
32:50
What was that snout on the rock? What was that?
32:53
Why was there even lightning for?
32:56
Why was the Earth going through all this bullshit?
32:59
What was the universe like before anything lived?
33:02
Darn it. These are things that kids
33:04
really want to know. These are things that kids ask
33:09
about. They want to know, you know, if
33:16
you go to the movies and you whether it's a drama, a comedy
33:22
or a historical documentary type of thing, or Marvel or DC comic
33:29
book type of movie, they always give us an origin story, don't
33:33
they? They tell us this is where the
33:35
character comes from. This is why the character has
33:37
its moral framework. This is why Batman behaves the
33:41
way he does. This is why he has some kind of
33:43
code. Superman's from Krypton.
33:46
He comes here and he realizes that he needs to be responsible.
33:51
He can either be a Messiah with superpowers, or he can be the
33:55
worst thing that humans have ever dealt with in their life.
33:58
He could be the next Zod, right? And that's what stories do.
34:03
They help us build and express, help us answer questions.
34:07
Also keeps things interesting, fascinating.
34:10
I couldn't imagine what a world would be like if we didn't have
34:13
our creativity and imagination. But one things that's really
34:18
neat, as I noticed that no matter what crazy shit we come
34:22
up with as humans, whether we're coming up with new religions or
34:26
coming up with new ideas, or we're coming up with new stories
34:30
for movies, no matter how hard we try, somebody somewhere has
34:37
already done it. Someone's already thought of it.
34:41
In fact, if you presuppose that God is real, then all these
34:45
stories already existed before we even thought they were our
34:49
own ideas. Isn't that neat?
34:52
It's like a kind of like The Matrix or some kind of a in a
34:57
dream, in a dream, in a dream type of thing, where the
35:02
experience has already happened and it just keeps on echoing and
35:05
echoing throughout consciousness.
35:12
So yeah, yeah, so that's what I made the decision to do Whenever
35:18
I was doing the whole atheist parenting thing, I figured, you
35:22
know, why give just a piece of the pie for why?
35:25
Just give my little narrow ass thought process of how reality
35:31
in the world works. I mean, sure, I can tell my kid
35:35
that he's a fucking monkey that evolved from a maggot.
35:38
Sure, I could say yeah, you were nothing more than a fucking
35:41
slug. And then somehow biology just
35:43
put your shit together, right? Doesn't sound very awesome.
35:48
And then I could just turn around and say, but some people
35:51
believe that you are angelic. That you were a celestial being.
35:57
That your life has intrinsic objective value to it.
36:01
That you actually have a moral framework.
36:04
And that as long as you don't go down the wrong path and glorify
36:10
darkness and evil, there's an opportunity that you could
36:14
actually exist for all eternity. And all those people that you
36:17
seen buried in a box, you'll meet them one day.
36:20
Providing they didn't go down a dark path themselves, of course.
36:25
And kids understand that. You know, atheists make it sound
36:29
like if you tell your kid that there's consequences, that
36:32
somehow that's going to make the kid crawl under the fucking bed
36:35
and be shivering and trembling, going, Oh no, Oh no, kids get it
36:41
when mommy and daddy says, look, if you walk along the sidewalk,
36:45
you'll be able to get to your destination.
36:47
You'll get to where you're wanting to go, but if you walk
36:50
out in the middle of the highway, there's a good
36:53
probability you're going to get fucking smacked by a diesel or a
36:57
car and your life will be ended in every ambition and dream or
37:01
desire or fun thing that you wanted to do will end in that
37:05
very fucking moment. That sounds scary, but if you
37:09
believe that to be the truth and you love that person, you're
37:13
going to protect them. You're going to tell him what
37:15
the fuck is, right? You're not going to say, well, I
37:18
wouldn't want to trigger them. I wouldn't want them to be
37:22
nervous about the street, right? No, you tell them about the
37:28
dangers in life. That way they can get over those
37:30
hurdles and make their way around the obstacles.
37:34
And what does it hurt to tell them?
37:36
That there's a possibility that there might actually be an
37:39
advanced entity out there that is actually paying attention to
37:43
us, that is consciously watching and gives a shit.
37:47
Or maybe you're one of these type of people who believe there
37:50
is something out there and it doesn't give a shit.
37:54
Either way, at least you're open.
37:56
At least you're saying there might be something there.
37:59
Your kids are going to end up thinking that way anyway,
38:02
whether you tell them or not. When they get older, they're
38:04
going to constantly question when they look into space in the
38:08
universe. Is there something out there?
38:11
If we're here, then it's possible other things could be
38:14
here. It just makes rational, logical
38:17
sense. If it's happened before, then it
38:19
may have happened again. The place is big.
38:22
The place is huge. Energy created us.
38:25
Some kind of power source created us a prime mover,
38:29
whether naturalist, naturalistic, or supernatural.
38:33
Then it could have been done before.
38:39
Give your children the tools. Don't teach your kids how to
38:43
think. Give them the whole pie.
38:48
And when I say teach your children and and lay it on them
38:54
and all this, this information, I'm not talking like the way
38:58
these LGBT people do kids in school or they feel like it's
39:02
necessary to teach how to gratify people sexually and all
39:06
this, I don't know. There's some things that you
39:09
really don't need to tell a kid. That's not necessary, especially
39:13
when that kind of experience isn't going to happen until much
39:17
later in their life. And it's not a life or death
39:21
scenario anyway. But you do need to tell your
39:24
kids right away that there are consequences for some of the
39:28
actions that you do. That's one thing I've always
39:32
wondered about people nowadays. I really, it floors me being a
39:37
parent in this day and age and hearing people say that parents
39:42
are not allowed to question. They're not allowed to have any
39:45
form of control. They're not allowed to inform
39:49
their children that their decisions may cost them and
39:53
cause permanent impact on their life forever, or at least until
39:58
the day they die. Why are parents not allowed to
40:02
tell their kid that when I had you, you were born a certain
40:06
way? And this is what I became
40:09
associated with. This is how I seen you from the
40:13
moment you were a baby to this. I understand that you feel like
40:17
you're different. I understand that you feel that
40:21
you're out of place. But could you give it some time?
40:25
Could you just give it some more years and see if you might be
40:29
able to adapt to this? You know, they claim that in
40:32
nature things adapt. People adapt, right?
40:36
So why don't we give life an opportunity to do that?
40:41
Why are we so into changing nature or trying to fight
40:47
against Mother Nature? Why not just let things be as
40:52
they're going to be? Right.
41:04
So yeah, Yeah. It's just the world's confusing
41:12
sometimes, isn't it? Why can't parents tell their
41:17
kids? Why is it abuse to tell your
41:19
kids there's consequences, whether it's spiritual
41:23
consequences or in the physical realm of the natural realm of
41:28
consequences? Why is it wrong for a mom and
41:31
dad to say I love you for who you are?
41:34
You are what you are later on in your life when you become an
41:38
adult and you're making your own choices.
41:40
If you decide that this is still something you want, then you do
41:44
it. Just not right now.
41:47
Not while you're a kid. Do you know how many times
41:51
parents let their children do things and then the children do
41:54
something totally foolish or stupid?
41:56
I mean, fucking adults do stupid shit too, don't get me wrong.
42:01
But your kid ends up growing up and they did something really
42:06
fucked up to themselves and they're going to wonder.
42:11
I thought you loved me. Why didn't you tell me this?
42:13
Why didn't you tell me that chopping my wee wee off meant
42:17
that I wasn't ever going to have children?
42:19
Why didn't you tell me that? You know, if I cut this off, I
42:23
won't be able to breastfeed my own baby.
42:29
Our parents? Isn't that our job?
42:32
We're supposed to tell our kids that?
42:34
How did we become the bad fucking people?
42:36
By trying to keep our children's parts together, To not let them
42:42
hack off their own limbs and shit.
42:45
Why did it all of a sudden become evil or wrong to tell
42:49
your child that you don't want them cutting on themselves from
42:52
mutilating themselves? Why is it wrong to tell a kid
42:56
that I love you for who you are? You don't have to become
43:00
something else. A lot of these disorders like
43:06
gender phoria and all this shit, that's not permanent.
43:10
That's something that a kid will end up eventually developing out
43:14
of it. According to Science in the
43:16
medical field, over 98% of people end up adapting to who
43:21
they are and what they are, and they move along.
43:25
Every kid has questioned when they see the little girl in the
43:28
dress playing with Barbie dolls, and every little girl has seen
43:32
the boy who's watching cartoons and eating Cocoa Puffs saying,
43:36
Gee, I wonder what it would be like if I was little Johnny and
43:39
little Johnny Sam. I wonder what it would be like
43:41
if I was Susie. And it also gets really
43:43
confusing too. If you favoritize a girl over a
43:47
boy and the boy's going to say I wish I got toys like little
43:51
Susie did all the time. I wish I got loved and got the
43:55
attention that I wanted. How come Susie gets treated like
43:59
a Princess? I get treated like a piece of
44:01
shit and vice versa Because the grass is green, always on the
44:06
other side, right? It's never when you're actually
44:09
experiencing shit. It never seems like it's fucking
44:12
good when it's on your end. Everybody else looks like life's
44:16
a piece of fucking cake and everything is going great for
44:18
them until you're actually walking in their fucking shoes.
44:21
Then all of a sudden you start thinking maybe I don't got it so
44:24
bad after all. Here, take back your bullshit
44:27
life and I'm going to go do mine.
44:33
Yeah, well I'm going to go ahead and upload this to the radio and
44:41
keep it up on YouTube for a little while.
44:44
If you want to hear more of my disturbing thoughts and ideas
44:47
and shit, we can do that. If you like the direction I took
44:51
in this video and you like these type of topics, make sure you
44:55
comment to me and let me know. e-mail me, message me, say hey
44:59
Brett, I like it when you talk about shit like this.
45:01
I this is my thing. You know?
45:04
This is my my fucking jam talk about this kind of shit.
45:08
And I will. Or at least more about it,
45:13
right? And still stick with variety and
45:15
so on. I guess I end the video with
45:20
this. I feel really blessed that my
45:23
children have already graduated high school and they got out of
45:26
that. They're already in the
45:28
workforce. They didn't have to go through
45:30
the cancel culture bullshit or the woke movement.
45:35
However, people do get up on their shed asking them are you
45:39
Republican or you're Democrat, who you voting for?
45:42
Blah, blah, blah. And I told my kids a long time
45:45
ago, I said even before Trump was a thing.
45:47
I said don't fucking say it. Say that's my own personal view.
45:52
Don't do it. Because when people ask these
45:54
type of questions, they ask you for two reasons.
45:57
One, they're looking for someone who validates their fucking
46:01
beliefs and is voting for the same person they are, and then
46:06
they can feel as though they did the right thing because somebody
46:09
else agrees with them, or you'll say the wrong person.
46:13
And because politics are so hot and fucking nasty these days,
46:19
it's practically like getting into a war.
46:21
You could find yourself in a 2 hour conversation with someone
46:25
who is at the end of the conversation wants to beat the
46:28
shit out of you because you either didn't articulate, you
46:31
didn't express, or they didn't want to hear what the fuck you
46:33
had to say in the first place. So best to keep this shit to
46:39
yourself. And a lot of cases you may want
46:44
to also treat religion and atheism the same way too.
46:48
Somebody ask you what your theological views are.
46:51
You should just say I'm a truth seeker.
46:53
I'm open minded by damn near anything.
46:56
If you got something for me, I'm listening.
46:59
But don't like, start evangelizing.
47:02
And if you're an atheist, don't go into one of your fucking
47:04
stupid speeches. Let the person get to know you
47:08
as a person first. Don't identify as the very thing
47:13
that you claim to believe in. I see a lot of people doing
47:16
that. I rarely ever see names on
47:20
Twitter or on the Internet anymore.
47:23
I see people calling themselves by their lack of belief.
47:28
They say I'm atheist, Bob, I'm Christian, blah blah blah.
47:33
They don't just say I'm this person who just so happens they
47:37
have this philosophy and views. It's always the the label comes
47:43
first and my goodness, how many times are we going to fucking
47:47
pigeonhole each other with that? How many times have we got a
47:51
Dyer on the hill of what title we wear?
47:54
Bullshit. I'm just really blessed.
48:00
My kids didn't get corrupted by all the bullshit out there.
48:04
My wife and I were able to put all of our positive, good
48:08
hearted stuff into our kids. And our kids are able to
48:13
circumvent and be able to think about how to deal with equations
48:18
and problems and puzzles and riddles in life.
48:21
And they're able to do that on their own.
48:23
And they also know that they're so loved and valued so that they
48:27
need help as long as I'm alive as well as their mother will be
48:32
there and we will try to help them through any process.
48:38
And that's really the best you can do.
48:41
It's not about how much money you have.
48:43
It's not how fancy your fucking house is.
48:45
It's not not about how many cars you got get or how many
48:48
restaurants you go to every fucking week or whatever.
48:52
It's about, Am I allowed? Do people care about me?
48:57
And do I mean something in this universe?
49:00
Do I play a role? Do I have value?
49:05
And does it all matter at all? At the end of the day, all
49:14
right, God bless.
