  Good morning ladies and gentlemen.
• 0:09
  My name is Brett Keene from GOD TV radio.
• 0:13
  When you get an opportunity, check out my radio station.
• 0:16
  All links are in the description.
• 0:18
  You can also check out my books and music Just released a new
• 0:22
  album there, Schmack Say Yes. All right, so I've been doing a
• 0:31
  lot of reflecting, lot of thinking about myself and the
• 0:36
  direction I want to go. And I have realized for quite
• 0:43
  some time that there's some things that I should have
• 0:46
  handled a lot differently. Relationships, connections with
• 0:52
  people, social connections and I'm going to do something that a
• 0:59
  lot of people out there do not have the courage to do.
• 1:02
  I'm going to acknowledge that I'm a flawed person and I have
• 1:08
  made some doozies. Let's start with one of them.
• 1:14
  It's a major issue that I think a lot of non believers as well
• 1:19
  as religious people have. The issue is is that I find
• 1:24
  myself whenever I'm angry or irritated or not having a good
• 1:31
  day, woke up on the wrong side of the cage.
• 1:35
  I find myself sometimes broad sweeping groups generalizing
• 1:42
  generalizations. I'll give you an example.
• 1:46
  Sometimes I'll wake up and I'll see that some atheist or a
• 1:52
  handful of atheists have decided to be very abusive, very nasty.
• 1:57
  And instead of simply either ignoring it and going about my
• 2:03
  business, making myself my first cup of coffee and talking about
• 2:08
  the positive things in my life. Sometimes I will hit record and
• 2:13
  I will talk about the entire atheist community.
• 2:17
  Like instead of saying some atheist, there was a handful of
• 2:22
  atheists today that pissed me off.
• 2:25
  Instead I say atheist in general suck.
• 2:31
  And unfortunately I used to do that.
• 2:34
  The Christians too, when I go back and I looked at some of my
• 2:37
  older content, I realized that whenever a Christian upset me,
• 2:43
  whenever they told me I was going to burn in hell or that I,
• 2:46
  you know wash the balls of Satan or whatever thing that came out
• 2:51
  of their mouth. Instead of just simply saying
• 2:55
  this Christian here this one specifically his YouTube channel
• 3:00
  is here, said that I wash the balls of Satan and that I'm the
• 3:06
  Antichrist and blah blah blah. But instead I expressed myself
• 3:12
  terribly by saying see how Christians are, see how
• 3:17
  Christians act, see how they behave.
• 3:22
  You see the problem, right? The problem is, is I'm blaming
• 3:27
  millions of people for something one dumb loser did.
• 3:34
  And I do that to atheists a lot as well.
• 3:38
  And I feel like after reflecting and thinking about this, I've
• 3:44
  probably heard a lot of people because I didn't pay attention
• 3:49
  to the way I was speaking or expressing myself.
• 3:53
  I shouldn't have done that. It's OK to get angry.
• 3:57
  It's OK to get upset. It's OK to even rage a little
• 4:02
  bit, but not to the point where you're swinging haymakers at
• 4:07
  everybody. You got to focus and concentrate
• 4:11
  on who it is that pissed you off and go after them.
• 4:16
  If you're going to go after someone for pissing you off and
• 4:20
  go after the right person, you know, I'm not saying be a
• 4:24
  fucking pacifist. I'm not saying that, you know,
• 4:28
  we should completely always ignore because some people in
• 4:32
  this world do deserve the shit treatment.
• 4:36
  They deserve to be embarrassed for the awkward, disgusting
• 4:44
  behavior that came out of their mouth or actions that they
• 4:48
  pursued. Now, I'm not talking about
• 4:52
  cracking somebody or something like that or getting physical.
• 4:55
  I'm saying that sometimes people need to be addressed.
• 5:00
  You know, you need to acknowledge what they have done.
• 5:03
  Let them know, give them the opportunity to change the the
• 5:09
  the crappiness in their ways and give them the opportunity for
• 5:14
  forgiveness and redemption if they're willing to change.
• 5:18
  It seems like a majority of the time.
• 5:21
  Some will not take it forgiveness or take the
• 5:25
  blessing. Some will not care if they're
• 5:28
  redeemed. They are just fine with being
• 5:32
  hurtful and abusive and so be it.
• 5:37
  One of the reasons why my wife says I'm such a great guy and
• 5:41
  full of love is because I do try to see and pay attention.
• 5:47
  I want to make sure that I don't intentionally harm anybody.
• 5:52
  I have never wanted to lay my hands on anyone.
• 5:56
  I have never wanted to scream at people.
• 5:59
  I've never wanted to talk abusively to people.
• 6:03
  But like all of you out there, you have your moments, right?
• 6:08
  You get angry, you get irritated, and sometimes you say
• 6:12
  a little bit more than what you should have.
• 6:15
  And that's something serious I need to work on.
• 6:19
  It is something that I need to get control over if I want to
• 6:25
  continue to be a good person. That's the way I got to do it.
• 6:30
  I don't really feel like at any time in my life I became a bad
• 6:34
  person or I just feel as though I made some bad mistakes.
• 6:39
  And sometimes bad mistakes don't equal out to you're a bad
• 6:44
  person. Unless you're out there
• 6:46
  murdering and raping and doing horrible God knows what.
• 6:52
  You know things that are illegal, then you haven't
• 6:57
  crossed the line to be labeled properly or appropriately as the
• 7:01
  bad guy. I'm not a bad guy.
• 7:04
  I've always been a great person who've always tried to apologize
• 7:11
  if I was wrong, and I've always tried to give everyone, and I
• 7:16
  mean everyone, the opportunity for rational, logical, diligent,
• 7:24
  chill, calm conversation. I've always been that way.
• 7:32
  I've always been the type of person where I give some people
• 7:36
  more chances than they ever deserved.
• 7:41
  You know, I heard a really, really rough story recently.
• 7:53
  A really rough story about a particular individual, a
• 7:58
  specific specimen of the human race that closely resembles a
• 8:04
  species, but not so much. I was reading some information
• 8:13
  about a very very popular YouTube.
• 8:16
  No I'm going to say this. Not the Amazing Atheist, not
• 8:21
  some popular like hardcore non believer out there, but someone
• 8:28
  who got their popularity by draining views off of other
• 8:36
  people, including myself, as well as including the Amazing
• 8:41
  Atheist. This person has spent a great
• 8:46
  deal of time accusing a lot of people of many terrible, awful
• 8:51
  things. But you know what I found out?
• 8:56
  I found out that this person got in serious trouble and might be
• 9:01
  going to court for date rape. There's a lot of lines and
• 9:08
  guidelines whenever it comes to something like that or an
• 9:11
  accusation like that. But apparently there is a couple
• 9:15
  females out there who are stating that this particular
• 9:19
  individual got them drunk and high and may have put something
• 9:24
  in their drinks in order to be able to violate them.
• 9:28
  And this person is running a podcast as we speak who a
• 9:35
  majority of people seem to at this point hate them and don't
• 9:39
  even bother listening and watching them anymore.
• 9:42
  I'll give you a hint, the amazing atheists used to Co host
• 9:47
  with this person along with Paul and Scotty.
• 9:51
  But this person went out of their way to take advantage of a
• 9:56
  woman that they were connected with.
• 10:03
  And that's rough. It really is.
• 10:06
  I talk about it on my radio show on Spotify.
• 10:10
  Don't want to drop any names or be specific or anything like
• 10:14
  that. Just a couple Blues Clues here
• 10:16
  and there. But this person has made
• 10:19
  basically their entire Internet career accusing people of
• 10:24
  horrible things. When it turns out that they
• 10:28
  might be on their way to court and might even do some time,
• 10:33
  it's pretty rough. Pretty rough.
• 10:36
  So not only did I get to read information, but I also got to
• 10:39
  speak to some females who say they were associated with this
• 10:44
  mess. You can all guess who I'm
• 10:48
  talking about. I think you got the idea.
• 10:53
  But besides all that, like I said before we got into this
• 10:58
  part of the content, we all need to step back and reflect.
• 11:05
  We need to breathe and try our best to be as logical and
• 11:13
  rational even when dealing with someone that we think is
• 11:17
  absolutely horrible. And try to be like me, ladies
• 11:22
  and gentlemen. Try to strive to be good.
• 11:25
  Try to be kind and compassionate and merciful, even if you're
• 11:30
  absolutely convinced the person that you're dealing with at the
• 11:35
  time doesn't deserve it. Because it's good for you and
• 11:40
  it's good for me and it's good for everybody.
• 11:45
  And you know, I don't know if a lot of you realize this, but
• 11:48
  anger and hatred and and darkness, you know, Star Wars
• 11:54
  has armed to something whenever they say, you know, stay away
• 11:57
  from fear and anger and anguish and all this because it can lead
• 12:02
  to the dark side. Obviously some people strive for
• 12:06
  the dark side. But if you want to continue to
• 12:09
  stay in the light and feel the force, you got to hold on to
• 12:13
  what is good. Think about what is good around
• 12:17
  you. Think about the positive.
• 12:20
  Try as you might to stay away from negativity, but if it is
• 12:25
  negativity that you can't retreat from or get away from,
• 12:30
  the negativity seems to follow you and stop you on a daily
• 12:34
  basis. Then acknowledge it.
• 12:37
  Either ignore it or respond to it.
• 12:40
  If you're going to respond to it, be tactful.
• 12:45
  All right, ladies and gentlemen, have a wonderful day.
• 12:48
  God bless.
