00:00And, you know, somebody asked me earlier about my Christian values, and one of the points I made is that when the settlers came to the New World, they found a very widespread child sacrifice.
00:11I imagine there are some people who don't agree with my view on the pro-life issue.
00:15Let me just make an observation.
00:18If you go to historical archaeological sites where there were brothels, and the two oldest businesses in the world are gambling and prostitution,
00:27so there were brothels even in very ancient civilizations, if you go back to ancient brothels and you dig up the bones of the women who were working in these places,
00:37you will very often find a lot of children who were buried with them.
00:43And the answer is that whenever a society decides to discard innocent babies, they also don't treat their women very well.
00:52And whenever a society mistreats its women, it is very often the babies who come right after that.
00:59There is a reason why Christian civilization ended the practice of child sacrifice all over the world,
01:08and it's one of the great accomplishments of Christian civilization.
