Now enjoy the show. that it was extremely easy to commit ballot fraud, voter fraud. And so she requested mail-in ballots with fake names
and got them and sent them to a Republican.
And now she's been fired and may face criminal charges.
There you go.
Big news.
Proving how easy it is to commit a crime
by committing the crime.
Yeah, that's not really a smart thing to do.
Did she explain herself?
Or is there an official explanation to why she did this?
I don't know,
but I think it's good
in the end.
I would not recommend
anyone do something like this,
but now we can see the evidence
of how easy it was.
She kind of like threw herself
on the grenade, right?
Yeah.
Because one of the problems
with all of this voter stuff
is that unless you get hard evidence,
you can see circumstantial evidence, but they just, it's always going to be dismissed for her to do this.
Okay. Now we know it's extremely easy. We have the whistleblower in Florida claiming it is
happening. So now there are questions about ballot harvesting and, and fake ballots. So
what's next. We're going to come a Tuesday. Pennsylvania is going to be locked for two or
three days. We're not going to know who won and then they're going to come Tuesday. Pennsylvania is going to be locked for two or three days.
We're not going to know who won.
And then they're going to come back and be like, oh, we found a bunch of ballots.
And Fetterman wins.
51-49.
You guys want to take?
You mean 50.1 to 49.9.
Yeah, it'll be 50.0001 to 49.9999.
I think we need to follow the Constitution and have one vote, one election day.
Election day, that's it. Sorry. Until it is free vote, one election day, election day.
That's it.
Sorry.
Until it is free software,
the voting machines,
there's no way there's no way to one day,
make it a holiday.
One day,
no early voting,
no mail-in voting.
No,
you come in,
you vote.
That's it.
But like hand your documents to some rando that does it in a back room somewhere and just trust the process.
What do you mean?
No,
you walk up to your paper,
you fill it out,
you stick it in the machine, and the machine's locked.
Yeah. And there's volunteers from both political parties usually there
that watch everything that goes on.
They don't see the code in the background.
That's why I'm saying no code. Paper belts.
Paper. And a receipt.
Give some people some jobs.
Yeah, give some people some jobs.
You guys don't have jobs. It's the idea.
What do you guys think is going to on tuesday huh it's gonna be
interesting i i do see a lot of postponements and i and i do see not a lot of decisions early on i
mean i it's it's been it's been like that with the last elections that we've seen i think it's fair
that we're gonna see it again they're gonna go oh geez oh look we we all these democrats are doing
so great.
But what I'm hearing is that in many of these key areas
though, there's no backlogged mail. So,
maybe not this time. I don't know.
Did they count it? They received it,
but did they count it? So, I could see
Republicans winning, winning, but all the
votes aren't in, and then 2 o'clock in the morning,
oh, now all the votes are going to be counted
here that were mailed in, and mail-in
ballots are
usually the ones that are democratic when i saw this funny tweet that was saying how you know
fox has already called arizona for hobbs it's like i think it just it depends on what state you're in
and what the media does because i think we're we are going to have a big red wave many places i
think we are going to know who won but i think pennsylvania like they're already warning us it's going to take days yeah they're not going to tell us so
it's like okay this is a close race so i don't know how that's going to shake out i guess if
these mail-in ballots show up i mean i don't know because pennsylvania also has like um they they
don't have the the kind of strict rules that other states have. So I think Pennsylvania is going to be really questionable,
but I think other states we're going to see results.
Yeah.
I don't like that.
The mail-in process,
how they know how many more votes they need to win or,
or,
you know,
after day one,
how many more votes need to come in to switch to your candidate of your
choice.
So you can just be like,
hold on a second.
Yeah.
Republic.
Oh,
good.
Yeah.
That's,
you know what i'm
gonna say in florida and miami data here's the latest data that republicans are still up about
1500 votes no no 2500 votes so that's early the democrats are up in the mail-in votes but the
early votes are are like 30k in favor of republicans it's gonna be interesting i wonder how long it'll
take until someone goes fucking nuts like Like, I don't know.
We might see Republicans win in Oregon or Washington, I think they're saying.
New York even, potentially.
New York?
Republicans, yeah.
Oh, Zeldin, right.
The governor, yeah.
I don't know about Schumer losing, but it could get crazy, man.
It could get crazy.
Which is why it's like if we have this big red wave, maybe they'll try to save face.
Like, oh, Pennsylvania is too close to call.
It's like, I don't know.
I think that if it was just such a devastating loss for them on every front, like, how will they recover?
And that's probably why they're putting out these articles saying, oh, we have these big losers on our side.
That's what the Democrats are saying.
Because I think they don't want to be proven as these like horrible pollsters because if they get in front of it even if it's just the last couple days saying like oh it's
going to be good for republicans then they don't have to act like they were wrong even though for
like the last couple months they've been saying that this isn't going to happen now they're
changing their tune at the last minute yep apocalyptic no no i mean it's you know it it depends on how deep you are in the liberal economic order.
It'd be funny if Republicans get a small narrow win.
No one cares.
The news dies down.
Democrats are just like, whatever.
And then nothing really changes because Biden has veto power.
And then everyone forgets the midterms happen.
Like, no fanfare.
No red wave.
Just, you know, whatever.
That'd be the funniest.
It would be funny if they didn't cover it much they just like let it pass maybe that would happen either they're going
to totally break down like trump derangement syndrome like i can't believe this occurred
maybe they'll be the election deniers or they're just going to pretend it didn't happen and pretend
like everything's fine well if the democrats lose they're going to be like, it's rigged, they stole it.
And then if the Republicans lose, they're going to be like,
it's rigged, it's stolen.
And then what, someone pulls a gun?
I hope not.
The Bulwark wrote that their fear is that
there's going to be Republicans and Democrats
at polling stations, obviously.
There's going to be a state like Texas or something
where Republicans armed.
There's going to be poll watchers who think they're watching.
They're seeing fraud.
So they get in.
They start telling them to stop.
The guy says, fuck you.
A fight breaks out.
They struggle.
Someone gets shot.
And then the polling location gets shuttered.
I'm saying like, what happens if a fight breaks out?
They shut down a polling station.
How can we have a legitimate election if polling stations are being shut down?
So the bulwark, you know, we love them, right?
They're saying like, this could be it.
How do we even have the midterms after 2020?
How do you even have an election?
People are going to lose it.
I don't want that to happen either.
But like we were talking about the violence against just anyone wearing a MAGA hat.
So it's like we're already in a place where there's like this crazy political violence.
So we don't want that to happen.
But also, I mean, what's the solution?
Not to vote?
Like, we want people to vote.
We want people to go out and do that.
So, I mean, hopefully things are okay.
But I don't think we can just let them intimidate us.
Let's, we'll get off.
We've beaten the dead horse, I guess.
We can only sit back and wait.
Tomorrow's Friday will be interesting.
But, you know, you got a book about God, and Ian was trying to
ask about that earlier. Yeah.
Yeah, but if you want to ask,
you were talking about Occupy Wall Street right before we started.
Do you want to ask that question?
You had some questions about that? Yeah, yeah, no.
We can totally talk about both. The Why God book
I actually wrote when I was in high school, so I was 17
when I wrote that book. So it's been a little
while, but I think all of the things
apply today. I'm basically talking about how I think young people have become so lost and so cynical. Back
then it was really atheism, I think was the big thing. I would say now it's more like,
for a lot of young people, their political thing or spiritualism is their religion. These woke
causes, that's their new religion. It's kind of like leftism wants to replace the church with
basically their own views. Whereas I think for a lot of right wingers, it's maybe it's freedom,
or maybe it's Christianity, something else kind of defines your views. And then you see,
you know, politics comes downstream from that. But I think for the left, for them, that like their
cause is number one. But anyway, so yeah, that was really talking about how I think we need to dive deeper into really exploring, you know, could there be a God?
Could there be a God who cares?
What kind of explains this universe?
Is there a fine-tuned universe with a creator?
But you're asking about Occupy Wall Street.
Yeah, I was asking you guys before this, you know, do you feel like your views have changed or do you feel like your views are the same, but it's just politics has changed and now they fall on a different spectrum?
Well, Occupy Wall Street represented originally an idea is that we're pushing back against Barack
Obama and the banker bailouts after the 2008 housing market crisis. So you saw a coalescing
of Ron Paul, libertarians, leftists, right wingers, even in some elements that all came together.
And then, of course, that was taken over.
But originally, it was a great way to debate ideas, have conversations.
People would come down and have huge debates.
And it was interesting.
And then a bunch of celebrities came down.
And then the police kind of came in and started cracking skulls and got everyone talking about it.
So, I mean, my ideas, I have basic ideas.
I believe in personal freedom and personal responsibility and personal liberty.
They haven't changed.
I changed a little bit.
I went to Occupy Wall Street because I was very upset with the banking industry in general,
the way that they used Barack Obama to bail themselves out with our tax money.
I still pissed off about it.
But I was also a collectivist at the time.
I was very into collectivism. The idea
that we together as a group can make
things happen, which you can. It's called a mob.
And I've realized lately it's less about
trying to help other people and more about helping
myself be the best self. Inspire
people to help themselves so that people
can become their best self. Capitalism.
And capitalism is a great way to do it.
Oddly enough, I don't like the
idea that the only way to make money in a capitalist system
is to take it from someone else or to print more of it and then devalue everyone's.
That's not true.
How else can you acquire money?
They really killed the idea of charity because they tax us so much.
People feel like, oh, I've already done everything for others.
I just don't care about people.
It's like, no, actually, we used to have a society where I think where people were much more focused on their community and people actually felt close to their neighbors
they felt like you know i actually know the people that are around my children and so on and so i
think there was much more charity involved people actually getting involved in you know hospitals
helping out especially wartime you know going out and and actually serving i think that's so lost
because the government's just ruined it by becoming too large.
Yeah.
I used to, when I was in New York,
I was like, I would just pick up trash.
If I was walking down the street
and I saw a piece of trash,
I would pick it up.
It only lasted a day or two.
But I was like, if I could just do that,
maybe that's like the first step
of inspiring other people to do it.
And then all of a sudden you have a clean city.
Cities are disgusting.
And that's the problem.
It's a bunch of
goody two-shoes, arrogant
elitists who want to tell everyone else
how to live but won't actually clean the shit off
their own backyard.
Do you guys think a lot of Occupy
Wall Street people are
right-wingers now?
Yes, they are. They are? Yeah.
When I went to the deplorable,
I had two people walk up to me like, oh, big fans.
And I was like, really?
I was like, I didn't realize like some like Trump supporters.
And they're like, no, no, no, we're Occupy.
And I was like, you are?
And they were like, yeah, we were Occupy Wall Street.
Now we're for Trump.
And I was like, why?
And they were like, well, we were for Bernie.
But then Bernie got knocked out.
Trump's the next best thing.
And I was like, OK.
Then I heard that in Anaheim.
There are these three guys and said they were Bernie supporters because Bernie was a union guy and Bernie wanted to bring jobs back to this country.
Well, when he got knocked out, they said Trump's the next best thing.
They got chased, beaten and spit on.
You mean when Bernie got screwed over by Hillary Clinton and robbed?
And then dropped to his knees and kissed a ring.
Yep. his knees and then kissed a ring yep um yeah when barack obama decided to sign the uh the trans
pacific partnership and was planning to basically sell us out to malaysian oil companies i don't
know if you're familiar with the investor state dispute settlement clause in the trans pacific
partnership which is insane it said that if we as american citizens discriminated against the
malaysian oil company said we don't want to buy their oil for whatever reason it's too dirty it's
too far it's too expensive.
That they could sue our government for discrimination
and then we would have to pay as taxpayers
the corporation in Malaysia.
And then Barack Obama was fine with that.
And that was the moment I realized
there's something nefarious going on.
I started to see a liberal economic order.
And the only people I could see was Bernie
that didn't want it, and then it was Trump.
I don't think Trump's right wing.
I just think he's like this wild liberal guy from the 80s and 90s that's
like couldn't get into the democratic party because they were like co-opted by the liberal
established you know his banking order he's a billionaire they'd never vote for him yeah they
wouldn't have him they would they and so he hadn't the other next best option was the republican
party but he's like could have started his own political party he never really struck me as left
or right he's kind of like an independent businessman. It's Republican or Democrat. Those
are the vehicles. I also think like JFK, like all these people who used to be liberal, it's like
they'd be conservative today. Conservative? JFK would be like a Nazi by the left. I just I'm just
saying like these people who are hardcore leftist, like they're not like classical liberals, you
know, like, of course not. I think they hate classical liberals. We like classical liberals you know like of course not i think they hate classical
classical liberals like actually having discussions and actually believing in things but um yeah but
i think you know it makes sense actually that a lot of people because oh were you guys excited
during the game stop thing oh yeah oh yeah melvin capital i was so pumped i was like yes
and i really wanted to really like root for them but i don't know it was crazy that was so
exciting i feel like that that would have been exciting time here at the show did you get on
oh yeah definitely was we made a shirt too but i didn't i missed that we have a shirt it's a gorilla
holding cash are you in doge right now i'm not i'm very i'm very not knowledgeable about crypto
i'm like the worst person to ask about crypto did i lose all my money yet i don't have any crypto
are you i don't know if i should i just i feel like it's volatile like bitcoin was up here then
it's like worth nothing i just i don't know yeah it's a risky game it's not the place to make i
would not advise it as a money making like you know facebook's all like oh my gosh everyone's
gonna be obsessed with metaverse now it's like nobody cares about metaverse i don't know i just
feel like sometimes something becomes a fad and then by the time it's a fad is when i've heard about it so i'm like i
just don't know if it makes sense because then it just metaverse is coming i'm just talking about
god you want to talk about the consciousness and controlling what people think and see
i'm up uh 12 on graphene hell yes dude yeah's cool. The metaverse is going to be, I don't know if it'll, it'll become like an augmented experiential
reality where you can see and perceive things you want to see and perceive.
Let me freak you out.
They did an experiment where they hooked up these massive, powerful magnets to people's
brains, to their heads, and then turned them on, and people said they felt the presence
of God when they were blasted by like insane
amounts of magnetism
they will put you in their neural
link metaverse and then they
will simulate that feeling
and tell you that they are God
they could also change your feelings
is your mic off?
they could also change your feelings and emotions
with magnets as well
I heard that's what people said in the 60s when they would take LSD and stuff.
Like, oh my gosh, this is like a spiritual experience or something.
It's like, I just think that that's crazy.
I mean, this is like acting like something that's obviously like of this world is something spiritual.
I don't know.
I mean, it's altering your brain.
I think what's happening is it's always there.
God's always there.
But we become desensitized to it because we have to grab apples to consume, to eat.
We need to stay warm.
So we're like, but when you take the psychedelic, it strips away the human part and you just
tap to the animal.
And so you sense it.
It's called the God helmet.
And I think the God way to do that would actually be fasting, where the Bible says, you know,
take a period of time for fasting so you're not focused on like physical needs like i'm hungry like all this stuff um and
i don't know if that's comparable but i think that's how people who did it for thousands of
years as opposed to the drugs and breathing i was wrong breathing correction it's a low intensity
magnetic field very weak magnetic fields made people have mystical experiences in altered states while wearing the God helmet.
Is this transcranial stimulation?
I have no idea.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation, TMS, TCMS, where they put two electrodes.
I don't know the exact process and the exact brain.
TMS.
It says comparison with transcranial magnetic stimulation.
I don't think people
should do any of this stuff.
I think people can connect to God
without all of this.
So you're saying fasting.
Have you taken psychedelics?
No, not necessarily fasting.
And no, I have not taken psychedelics.
I just think if we believe
there is a God who cares,
who's accessible to us,
I think through prayer,
through all of those things,
we can reach him without any external stimuli on us.
There's a lot of theories and also a lot of symbology when it comes... symbolism.
When it comes to religion.
Caught myself on that one.
I keep saying symbology instead of symbolism.
Especially when it comes to psychedelic mushrooms and to religion.
I think Ian knows a lot about this,
but there's a theory out there that religion was kind of made
predominantly because of psychedelic mushrooms.
What do you think about that theory?
Have you looked into it?
I don't know.
I don't agree with the theory.
I think that's kind of like people come up with theories like Jesus was gay.
These people were all on drugs.
Everyone's maybe living in another world where it's like inception I just think it's kind of it doesn't really make any sense based on any of the text and also based
on any third-party accounts if you look into historical accounts of Jesus or the Bible for
example um I do think that there have been like mystics over time like that's that's happened
that's been like a thing but i just don't think that that's like the way that we would rely on
to access god because today i have a friend she's like super into crystals astrology wellness but
in the reality the people selling her all of that crap are people that like literally just like buy
it on amazon and like give it to her and tell her
it's going to change her life so i don't know about all of this like you know crystals and
just things like that i would not promote it there is power in the placebo that can't be explained
by science as well you know yeah not by the scientific method it can't be replicated they
don't understand why believing something has a tendency to make it real for your body. Physiologically, if you think you're sick, that your body would
become sick. Or if you think you're healthy, your body becomes more healthy. I think the
conscience is very powerful. And it might have something to do with crystals because your bones
are crystal. They're a crystal called hydroxyapatite. And crystals tend to vibrate.
And if you vibrate one crystal, a crystal across the room will also start to vibrate.
So I'm wondering if there's... And sound can vibrate your bones, a crystal across the room will also start to vibrate. So I'm wondering if there's like in sound, you know, sound can vibrate your bones.
And this is your crystal here.
I wonder if there's like your thoughts can actually vibrate your body and your crystals and then cause your DNA to basically your DNA is going to they're going to react to external stimuli, whether that's a vibration.
It can turn DNA on and off.
So bone is primarily hydroxyapatite
crystals interspersed with collagen matrix really 65 to 70 of the bone mass is hydroxyapatite
that's crystal my friend would like to think those things make her life better but i don't
know if they have which is why i'm not sure the placebo effect works because it's kind of like a
girl saying like oh my gosh i really want a boyfriend and
they keep thinking they're going to meet someone and then they don't it's just like i don't know
if you can just like make things happen based off of like telling yourself i mean i think
motivation's good but it's just like it's just nothing to it last year i've been single for a
long time and i asked my mom last year tell me i'll find the girl of my dreams she's like you'll
find the girl of your dreams and then i found her well she found me but she had already found me i'll find the girl of my dreams she's like you'll find the girl of your dreams and then i found her well she found me but she had already found me i just didn't know i didn't i wasn't
looking for it until i believed i was going to see it then i all of a sudden i'm looking for it
and i was ready for it when it appeared not that it caused it but it was that it put me in a state
where i was able to see it you got to check those instagram dms that's right always always be
watching the chat if you're looking for someone. They're out there.
They're looking at you.
I know a lot of people
in Hollywood believe in magic.
Oh, yeah.
They literally do.
They literally believe in it.
That's why there's like a fear,
a karma fear they have.
They always like,
you know,
they'll give big tips
because they're scared
that it'll be taken away from them
if they do something wrong.
But they genuinely believe
they have control over reality. Wow Wow they really think they're God
basically because they're celebrities and a lot of them became famous out of
nowhere like they show as a child no like oh my gosh and I'm worth millions
of dollars it's like okay look that may have happened for you but most people
know and so I think that also Hollywood is a cesspool and they have a lot of
weird stuff that goes on there like Like just, just weird stuff like drugs,
sexual stuff,
like bad religious things.
I just,
they don't think they're God.
They don't believe God exists.
They don't believe that there is a grand order or creator.
They just believe that they have some kind of magic power influence over
reality.
They also believe each other,
other people do.
And not every single person, i've like i would say
it's disproportionate i mean it's a hippie lefty thing too in hollywood where they're like crystals
and vision boards and stuff so like we've seen it they think they have magic i think of it like a
web like we're all little nodes on a web on a giant web and you can move your node like your
body and but it you're still stuck in the. You can technically vibrate the entire web with your own behavior.
But to say that you are the web or that you control the web is kind of nonsense.
You're part of it.
I think another problem with it, too, is it's all about being – like everything's positive.
It's like being your best self, like manifesting this and that.
And I think that the first step in realizing the greatness of god is realizing our own shortcomings and like the the
gap between us and god like we are so like like we are tiny ants compared to god and i think like
wellness and all this is basically saying like oh like we're gonna be like we're gonna have this
aura we're gonna be this and be that and i just think that's kind of the opposite of like the fear of god yeah i think that's why so many people are the last
thing you said oh no like i think if god is great if he is all-knowing he's perfect he's
omnipotent like i'm not you know yeah And so having this gap between us and God, I think realizing that first is like essential.
And if you think, oh, like I basically am God,
like we're equals, we're friends,
like that's a completely different view of who God is.
Imagine an ant climbs out of its little ant hole,
looks around and says, this is reality.
There is nothing else.
I know there's nothing else
because I've not seen anything else, not smelled anything else.
This is all there is.
That's like, to me, atheists.
They're just like, I don't believe that anything else could be because I looked around and I don't see it.
And I'm kind of like, after a certain point with like science where we were like, hey, did you realize that what we can touch, smell, see, and hear is less than a millionth of reality?
Like there's radio waves. There's like infrared and ultraviolet light we can touch, smell, see, and hear is less than a millionth of reality? Like there's radio waves.
There's like infrared and ultraviolet light we can't even see.
There are so many things that are imperceptible that what we can see and experience, even
with technology, is microscopic in the grand scheme of things.
Have you pulled up the cosmic microwave background radiation?
Oh, you love the cosmic.
Yeah, this is, I was pretty much agnostic my whole life until age 26.
Radio telescopes.
I'm starting, you're starting to see a web of radiation left over from the Big Bang.
Which one?
All of these.
This is all different images of this radiation.
This is the universe.
No, it's not.
It's not the universe.
The issue is, you see how it's round-ish?
We're making assumptions based off what we can see.
This is a known universe, I should say.
This is what we can see.
It's not what we can see.
We're making predictions so we can see it.
I think the known universe, like we can see, is really, really tiny.
And then we project this off of it.
So here's a scary thought.
We believe the universe is expanding.
I think there was new data that came out recently that said it's not, and we were wrong about that,
but I don't know enough to elaborate. If the universe is expanding and stars and galaxies
and everything are moving further and further away, then at a certain point on earth, humans
will be born and they'll look up and see black for the sky. No stars, no nothing. They'll see
planets, but nothing else. and they'll assume that there is
nothing else they will have no information to go off of to believe there is a universe because
there's nothing to look at that's crazy you're saying that this is an extrapolation and not an
actual radio telescope yeah i'm pretty sure there's an extrapolation like how would we get a
picture of the known universe dude radio telescopes i mean i'm reading about it way too big shows a
faint background brightness glow sure sure maybe they're maybe they're extrapolating it to show what they think that means it looks like
that's exactly the point that there is a radiative leftover uh resonance from the big bang makes me
and it looks like a neural pathway like it and you see it arcing through star systems like
like electricity arcs through our heart or or like and i don't know if it's electricity or whatever
but it's causing the heart like sparking the heart it's the same kind of energy and there are people who
do this they say you know human brain neural network oh yeah yeah similar to the cosmic web
yeah that's and you know things are fractal it's quantum realm it's at least evidence that there's
god that that's that we're like in like a god mind or something i think and. And that's when I started to think that maybe there's something out there.
And then I started doing Reiki.
And I was like, whoa, you actually have like radiative heat energy coming off you because you're magnetic.
Because your red blood cells are circulating iron and causing a magnetic field.
I was like, whoa, dude.
Yes.
And some people who have more midichlorians can feel the force.
I also was like tripping.
Not a lot. But I was like tripping, not a lot,
but I was taking psychedelics, smoking a lot of weed and making internet videos and watching my own eyes
for long periods of time, like going into trance,
you know, when you're in like flow state
and you don't really remember what you said,
but you're flowing.
Watching myself in that state, I started to sense,
I gained control of my senses.
And I thought maybe that's getting in touch with God. It's getting in touch with yourself. Or at least that's a good place to sense. I gained control of my senses and I thought maybe that's getting in touch with God. It's getting in touch with
yourself. Or at least that's
a good place to start.
There's no more bullshit. You don't get confused
by like distractive thoughts and patterns
and stuff because you know who you are.
And then you can sense God. I just think it's weird.
Like I don't know. I don't know
how you can look around at the universe.
You can look around at what we know of the universe. You can
travel the world. You can learn about at what we know of the universe. You can travel the world.
You can learn about,
read about history and then conclude that there's no God.
I think the reality is the people who are atheists tend to be,
not always.
I know there's educated atheists,
a lot of them,
but I'm saying the average person who just doesn't believe or is confused,
just isn't researching.
Isn't looking.
Yeah.
What did you come across in your book?
How do you dive into it? Yeah. I, I title every isn't looking. Yeah, what did you come across in your book? How do you dive into it?
Yeah, I title every chapter a question.
Like, is there a God who cares?
Or can faith and reason be compatible?
Could miracles really happen?
Like, what's the historical proof of Jesus' existence?
So I dive into a mixture of science, history, or just kind of like personal questions
someone might have about God.
But I do think it's kind of shifted from people who were atheists and looked at science and said there's no god to people who say like oh there is a god but it's kind of just like
spiritual or god is kind of different than how we might see god and i think like the greatness of
god is getting diminished over time by young
people in their minds. I think they think like, I don't know, I think the early pagans in some
ways saw it like this, like the earth is God, there's a sun God, like we are like in God or
something, like being one with God. I think that's really different from like looking outside of yourself and saying like this is this is God and like I'm Danielle and like I want to be more like God.
I need to like change.
I need to like strive towards something definitely.
But like there is a gap there.
Do you feel a gap in your personal life?
Do you feel like you are God or that God is part of you? I mean, I think you, if you, you can accept him for sure,
but I don't, I wouldn't say that I am God or that that is the case in any way. I think
we have him in our lives if we choose to. Like I'm Christian, so I think like we can, of course,
accept like Christ into our life, but I don't think that that would make me him. I think that
would make me like his son or daughter.
So I can follow him and like do those things and like believe that and like be as close
to him as I can.
But I still think people who even are very close to God, like Mother Teresa, she experienced
the dark night of the soul.
She like would write and be like, I feel so lost.
I feel so far from God.
But I think that's something that happens when Satan wants
to attack you when you're doing God's work. So I do think there's like this interesting spiritual
battle that goes on between good and evil. And it's not always saying like, oh, I just feel close
to God all the time. And so sometimes you have doubt. Sometimes you have hardship in life. And
sometimes even Jesus said, you know, Lord, why have you forsaken me? And so I think people go through different things in life, but I think turning back to
God is always like the goal.
When I was really becoming like believing in this energy or whatever this is, it was
like I would go into spiraling depression because trying to, it coexists with this belief
in this all powerful superstructure or at least this
ever-present structure but then also i have to kill animals to eat to survive i've got a i've
got a not murder but i've got to kill these things so to survive i need to capitalize off of my
fellow man i need to take their money i need to it felt so antithetical to god to this peaceful
co-creation it's not necessarily peaceful necessarily peaceful. You don't take their money.
You exchange.
Well, you take my thing.
I take your thing.
It's still a take.
It's called exchange.
Yeah.
I think that's also just part of being in a fallen world.
Like after the fall, I think that's when we started feeling like, oh, we have to like
kill animals and eat them and all of those things.
But that's why they're here for us, like to survive.
But I don't think it was like that if it weren't for you know like sin entering the world what do you mean fallen world oh like
the fall um like from adam and eve so like in the garden of eden they had everything they needed like
food water shelter like they had each other like they were great they never like needed for
anything they were like with god and then after the fall that's when all of a sudden it was like you know
like men are gonna have hard back-breaking work women are gonna have childbirth like
like they're gonna be all these wars issues like food like problems women am i right right right
look you know adam you know adam's in here patriarchy propaganda adam's chilling was
badass adam's chilling he's doing his thing you know mind his own. Eve gets up and she's like, I'm a dead apple.
Yeah.
And then he's like, what the fuck are you doing?
She's like, I'm eating that apple.
And he's like, but you're not supposed to eat it.
And she ate it.
Like, what the fuck?
Yeah.
Follow the rules.
The apple was psilocybin.
That's the that's the secret.
They tripped balls.
Then they realized they were human.
They didn't know they were human before that.
They didn't know they were naked.
One of the one of the conspiracy theories.
I don't know.
It's not a conspiracy, but like one of the wild theories that it's a reference to, they say
great apes ate psilocybin and then knew, became sentient, realized.
And that's why she eats the apple and then God says, you have become one of us.
And they closed themselves because they understood they were naked and shit.
Dude, psilocybin, there's not much more horrifying than overdosing on psilocybin. I don't know if you guys have ever overdosed on psilocybin. I've never done psilocybin. It's not much more horrifying than overdosing on psilocybin i don't know if
you guys have ever overdosed on psilocybin i've never done psilocybin is not pleasurable no comment
dude it is the darkest like twisting nether of like what am i destined for death like crazy
like in like in doctor strange when tilda swinton like flicks him on the head and then he's like
flying through the quantum realm and other dimensions.
And you feel like you're going to puke the whole time.
Deeper.
I said deeper.
It's crazy, but a little bit is excellent.
In my opinion.
What's his name? Bill Hicks.
Says you've got to take a heroic dose.
Heroic dose.
In order to experience God.
I also feel like Adam and Eve, they didn't know evil,
but they were so curious about
what that tree was and what god told them not to eat so then he was like okay now you know now you
know what evil is so i also think it's kind of like we also we always have this curiosity like
we want to know more we want to like go to the dark side where we're not supposed to go and then
sometimes it's like i think that's where just like the trust in God comes from is saying like, you know, maybe I don't need to do that. Maybe I
don't need to know. You get it. You get a choice. You get to, you get free will to figure things
out. And one way I've described it is that life is like a sorting algorithm that everybody is here.
And then you choose which path to go on. And when you die, you get sorted in or you get sorted out.
I've been thinking about doing a, what are they called?
Ayahuasca ceremony.
But I want to get like a parasite cleanse before I go.
Because I could imagine doing a deep psychedelic experience,
but have like something in my body.
And then I'm having a spiritual battle with myself because of the parasite.
But I see it as like a demon and it's like hell on earth for two days straight.
Well, the proper way to do it is to, of course, cleanse right before you do it.
That's the way that the shamans.
And you should.
And we're going to wrap things up.
