And things of a political nature, which can be a lot of things

2019-09-10 00:31:01 UTC  

p much

2019-09-10 00:31:19 UTC  

Who are the people who run it? I feel like I've seen that girl on Youtube

2019-09-10 00:31:44 UTC  

blonde she has a channel was far more active back

2019-09-10 00:32:06 UTC  

Blonde in the Belly of the Beast is her channel

2019-09-10 00:32:24 UTC  

Yeah, I knew she was familiar somehow.

2019-09-10 00:32:43 UTC  

Are either of the podcast hosts religious at all?

2019-09-10 00:32:44 UTC  

I don't think she's been that active at all in recent... years

2019-09-10 00:32:56 UTC  

If they are, they don't particularly show it

2019-09-10 00:33:26 UTC  

I remember that Blonde was pretty conservative in her views but I don't remember her ever speaking on the topic of religion

2019-09-10 00:33:46 UTC  

Blonde has mentioned recently going back to church and getting back into Catholicism, Matt alludes to being non-religious at times

2019-09-10 00:34:44 UTC  

A lot of people are getting into conservatism just because of the lunacy of left wing politics and its assault on free speech.

2019-09-10 00:34:53 UTC  

deus vult

2019-09-10 00:34:59 UTC  

now if only we can get rid of this commie pope

2019-09-10 00:35:19 UTC  

It is still odd to me that secular conservatism is a thing, though. I think that secularist conservatism is often just a more classical liberalism.

2019-09-10 00:35:42 UTC  

not wrong in that

2019-09-10 00:35:55 UTC  

I'm still hope people give that old liberatarian thing a try

2019-09-10 00:36:04 UTC  

At least I find there's an acknowledgement among those circles that Judeo-Christian civilization brought that about

2019-09-10 00:36:09 UTC  

and all of its wonders

2019-09-10 00:36:20 UTC  

its because george will and charles krauthammer took the place in intellectual conservatism that buckley once held

2019-09-10 00:37:07 UTC  

secular conservatism has been the governing philosophy of republican policy makers for the last 20 years or so

2019-09-10 00:37:17 UTC  

Maybe longer

2019-09-10 00:37:26 UTC  

despite media perception and what religious 'leaders' might tell you

2019-09-10 00:37:31 UTC  

principles without an anchor

2019-09-10 00:37:53 UTC  

Essentially. For what will we conserve believing that there is only death that awaits us?

2019-09-10 00:38:09 UTC  

^^^^^^

2019-09-10 00:38:09 UTC  

We will conserve...nothing. I guess.

2019-09-10 00:39:51 UTC  

Wait, so you only conserve for the promise of a big payout in the afterlife?

2019-09-10 00:40:06 UTC  

Nope

2019-09-10 00:40:19 UTC  

The main fault I find in libertarianism is that it focuses too much on the individual

2019-09-10 00:40:28 UTC  

Society doesn't exist without families

2019-09-10 00:40:30 UTC  

You conserve your life eternally through Christ.

2019-09-10 00:40:44 UTC  

you can be secular for something to leave behind for _someone_

2019-09-10 00:40:57 UTC  

libertarianism assumes that person virtue is of no importance

2019-09-10 00:40:59 UTC  

so far, the only real way to focus that is to have children of your own

2019-09-10 00:41:12 UTC  

It's not a payout in the monetary sense, or something.

2019-09-10 00:41:26 UTC  

Families have to come from the social realm. Libertarianism focuses on the individual in a political sense

2019-09-10 00:41:36 UTC  

It's still external rewards

2019-09-10 00:41:57 UTC  

@vngxl what if you conserve all your life, but never heard of Christ?

2019-09-10 00:42:00 UTC  

but that's the thing, where does libertarianism come in with a, I guess, cure, in the societal realm?

2019-09-10 00:42:11 UTC  

Where does Capitalism?
