WOTM: Insurrection vs. Resurrection
In this video, I'm piggy-backing (and trying to support) a video from my Canadian brother, Paulogia. He made a truly epic video where he proposed a legend hypothesis for the rise of Christianity. It's so incredibly well done.
In my video, I wanted to use the insurrection to show just how easy it is for people to reimagine a narrative and twist it to serve an end which is in no way consistent with the facts of what actually happened. I think you'll like it. I hope.
So, this is that moment where I get a little choked up and sappy. I really do feel so much gratitude to all of you who continue to support my work. I literally think about you guys every day, and I tell people how amazing you all are — all the time. I still can't believe I get to do this. I hope I'm living up to your expectations. But, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. And I'll see you next month. I already have good stuff in the works! B

A most excellent sermon, BriBri. Haven’t heard that comparison before but it’s revealing on both sides (JC & DJT). Thanks as always for your thoughtful observations.
Brilliant! Still I'm afraid of our upcoming elections here in Germany (we need a progressive Green Party as much as you do!) and your Midterms...
Yeah, it’s a bit frightening everywhere, isn’t it? 😬
Have you been on Paul’s show? Not really interested in what you are going to say, I just want to see your cartoon character:)
No. But we’ve been talking about it — trying to figure out what we might do together. I’m dying to see what he does with me too.
Hey Bri Bri, you make End of month a special occasion for me. Thank you..
It's damn scary! Especially since the very so-called "leaders" who quickly denounced the insurrection are now trying to downplay it, take back their earlier statements, thwart the investigation, keep the "religion" growing. The biblical metaphor that people are sheep is spot on: they beg for a shephard to "redeem" them —be it Mr. Deity or Pumpkinhead.
Brian, this is a brilliant analogy! Too bad no one who needs to would get it if they saw it.
