00:00:00Hello, hello. Good afternoon, my friends. I hope you're doing well. 24th of March,
00:00:042026. Got a question from a listener who wanted to talk about the parable of the prodigal son.
00:00:17This is from Luke 15, 11 to 32 in the Bible. And this is about
00:00:26God's forgiving love, or at least that's one interpretation of it. And it goes a little
00:00:33something like this. So a wealthy man has two, count them, two sons. And the youngest son
00:00:42goes up to his father and says, so dad, you know, it'd be excellent man if
00:00:51I could get like my share of the inheritance like now. Because like, if I have to wait till you're
00:01:00dead, bro, that kind of blows chunks. That kind of sucks. So just make believe according to the law
00:01:09or in your head or in some manner, just make believe you're dead. Give me that good old sweet
00:01:16cash inheritance now. Which would be fantastic. You know, hey, man, I'm, I'm a reasonable bro.
00:01:23I'm a good dude. I'm a reasonable dude. So what, what I will accept is just like a third of
00:01:29the estate.
00:01:29A third. You know, there's you, there's older bro, there's me. 33, 33, 33. Third, third, third, we're good.
00:01:42So the father says to his youngest son, okay. Yeah, it sounds great. So here's what I'm going to do.
00:01:52I'm going to divide my property between the two sons. Now, I assume it's a third, a third, a third.
00:02:00So he's given a third of his property to the oldest son, a third of his property to the youngest
00:02:06son.
00:02:07I assume keeping a third of it for himself. So then the younger brother, sweet man, time to go
00:02:15get some serious thrill issues on. So he gathers up all of his wealth and vamooses off to a distant
00:02:26country. Like I did a call with a guy yesterday. He's 47. He wants kids. And he started to really
00:02:34get the itch to have kids in his mid thirties. And I said, well, what did you do? You really
00:02:41got the
00:02:42itch to have kids in your mid thirties. What did you do? He said, hey, man, I went backpacking.
00:02:48I went camping. I'm like, okay, hey, I've got a pup tent. Want to start a family? Yeah, no.
00:02:57So the younger brother packs up a third of his inheritance, vamooses off to a distant country
00:03:09and blows the door. You know, like that lottery winner, right? There was a lottery winner
00:03:14who said, hey, man, I won like a million bucks. I ended up broke. And the reporter said, well,
00:03:21what the hell did you do all the money? What did you do with all the money? It's a million
00:03:24bucks
00:03:24back when a million bucks was like five million bucks or 10 million bucks. And the lottery winner
00:03:30said, well, you know what? Here's what I did. I took a million dollars. I divided it in two.
00:03:38Now, half of it, like the 500k, I spent on big trucks. I went to a lot of concerts. Frankly,
00:03:46I did quite a bit of drugs, spent money on cheap and loose women, blew it gambling. So that's what
00:03:52I did with the 500,000. Now the other half, oh man, I just wasted that. That is not a
00:04:03poverty
00:04:03mindset. I don't know what is. So younger bro goes out to a distant land and does wild parties,
00:04:14dissipation excess, pays for bottle service, buys all his friends lap dances. I'm sure divvies up with
00:04:25the primordial equivalent of credit cards, a couple of lines of booger sugar, blows out his
00:04:32septum, inflates his sinuses, and just blows it. Takes all of his money, wastes it. Which means,
00:04:40basically, he transfers the money from his responsible father to a bunch of criminals,
00:04:46right? Remember, you go to strip clubs, you go to a lot of gambling joints and so on. Not all,
00:04:51obviously. But to some degree, you're just giving your money to criminals and it's bad. Like
00:04:58OnlyFans. Anyway, I'm not calling them all criminals. I'm just saying,
00:05:01I think there's some criminals involved. In parts, my personal opinion. Now,
00:05:10then, a couple of things happened. A, the prodigal son. Prodigal just means wasteful.
00:05:19Prodigal son runs out of cold. Like, uh, Canada. And then, boom, severe famine hits and he's
00:05:31destitute. Now, he's desperate. He hires himself out to some local citizen who sends him to feed
00:05:39the pigs, which is particularly humiliating for a Jew because pigs are unclean. And he's hungry
00:05:46because it's a famine. And, you know, pigs eat this vomit slop. If you've ever seen pigs eat,
00:05:52that's a reason why they, um, feed bodies to pigs. They'll eat anything and pig slop,
00:05:58just leftovers and junk and crap. Pigs will eat it all, digest it all.
00:06:05And the younger brother
00:06:09is touching these religiously unclean animals.
00:06:14He's hungry.
00:06:17And he's looking at the vomit slop the pigs are eating.
00:06:21And he's like, dang, oh, I could eat that. I'm so hungry. I could eat what the pigs are
00:06:29snuffling through, these vile, unclean beasts.
00:06:37And then he has a revelation, an epiphany, a, I guess it's not quite a come to Jesus moment,
00:06:44obviously, but he has a thought.
00:06:48And he's like, oh, this is crazy.
00:06:52It's absolutely nuts.
00:06:54My father's servants have enough to eat.
00:06:59I'm half starving to death in this foreign land.
00:07:00I got no money.
00:07:01And I want to put my face in the pig slop, vomit, and eat my fill.
00:07:09Which, you know, think of the most, it's like,
00:07:11I guess for Jews, it would be like eating a handful of baby spiders.
00:07:20So he's like, I'm, I'm way worse off than my father's servants who at least have enough to eat
00:07:28and a roof over their head, and they're not doing this vile task.
00:07:34And then he's like, okay, man, kind of blew it here, just a little.
00:07:40How am I going to get out of this?
00:07:42I know, I know.
00:07:44Okay, okay, I gotta, gotta come up with a speech here.
00:07:47Gotta, gotta figure out what I'm gonna say.
00:07:49I gotta go back to dad on bended knee.
00:07:51Oh, man.
00:07:52I basically wished he was dead to get money.
00:07:55He gave me the money.
00:07:57I blew it all.
00:07:58Got a lot of great memories, don't get me wrong.
00:08:00A lot of, a lot of fun times.
00:08:02A lot of fantastic stories that didn't start with,
00:08:05well, I had a salad and then,
00:08:08so, yeah.
00:08:09I mean, I'm not sure how my liver's doing.
00:08:11Probably not well.
00:08:13But, yeah, I blew it all, so I gotta, I gotta talk to dad.
00:08:16I gotta go talk to dad.
00:08:18Oh, what am I gonna say?
00:08:19What am I gonna say?
00:08:22Um.
00:08:25Yeah, you know what?
00:08:26I, I can grovel.
00:08:27I mean, who am I kidding?
00:08:29I've groveled in the gutter looking for a couple of dropped coppers.
00:08:33Here I am eyeing the pig vomit slop like it's a, a porterhouse steak.
00:08:37Like, yeah, you know what?
00:08:38I can totally grovel.
00:08:39I can do it.
00:08:40I can do it.
00:08:41I've, I've got nothing left.
00:08:42You know, pride left.
00:08:43Nothing.
00:08:44So here's what I'm gonna do.
00:08:45I'm gonna say, uh,
00:08:48Oh, father, I have sinned against heaven and before you.
00:08:54I am no longer worthy to be called your son.
00:08:58Hire me out, daddy.
00:08:59Just make me like one of your hired servants.
00:09:03Just for the love of God, give me some food.
00:09:11So he rehearses this a whole bunch of times in his head.
00:09:14Could it be said that a rehearsed speech does not smack overly of authenticity?
00:09:19Yeah.
00:09:20Yeah, obviously it could be.
00:09:21So he abscondeth from the pig's pen and he's heading home.
00:09:31Maybe he's hoping, just, just, man, put me to work in the fields.
00:09:34Put me to work.
00:09:35I'll move furniture.
00:09:37I'll do bricklaying.
00:09:38I'll do clay.
00:09:40I don't care.
00:09:41It doesn't matter.
00:09:42I just, I'm starving here.
00:09:43Now, seeing change, we switch to the father who has not heard from his youngest son in years.
00:09:55It's not really specified in the text, but we can assume to go through a third of a fairly decent
00:10:02inheritance takes more than a Brewster's Millions couple of days.
00:10:09Now, the oldest son has been responsible.
00:10:11He's saved his money.
00:10:14He's invested.
00:10:15He's worked hard.
00:10:16And he's been a good person, a good son.
00:10:20He hasn't taken massive amounts of family wealth and poured it down the gullets of cheap women, have to pay
00:10:30for voodoo healings of various sexually transmitted diseases.
00:10:35He hasn't given a whole bunch of money over to criminals.
00:10:39Plus, he hasn't been like my grandfather, who was a notorious drunk and sold off the family's ancestral lands in
00:10:45Hoyerland, thus casting me to the four winds of fate to be raised in severe poverty.
00:10:52So, the older brother's been responsible.
00:10:54Younger brother's been a complete wastrel, a rake, a vagabond.
00:10:58No, not really a vagabond.
00:11:00Just a party, a wasteful party dude, a dilettante.
00:11:08So, switch to the father's view.
00:11:09The father, through the shimmering heat of the Middle East, I suppose, through the various light-bouncing thermoclines of distant
00:11:18vision he sees.
00:11:22Like, Lawrence of Arabia coming through the shimmering mirage as he sees his youngest son approaching.
00:11:34And the father felt great love opening in his heart like a cracked yolk spilling over, and he runs, which
00:11:44is very undignified for an old man, but he runs to his son across the desert, embraces him, kisses him
00:11:52fervently, and the son is like,
00:11:54Ahem, alright, here we go, authenticity mode switched on, oh, father, I, and the father's like, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:12:04no, don't worry, shut up, shut up, doesn't matter, I'm, and he orders his servants, drags his son back to
00:12:08the house, orders his servants, bring the best robe, put a ring on his hand, sandals on his feet, kill
00:12:13the fatted car for a feast, this son of mine was dead, and is alive again, he was lost, and
00:12:20is found.
00:12:22Ahem.
00:12:24Weeping tears and ordering food and wine and celebration and parties may not be the best thing for a rancid
00:12:32alcoholic and possibly drug addict who's bow-legged from STDs, who knows?
00:12:39So, meanwhile, the older son is out in the fields.
00:12:46He hears music and dancing, celebration, catawals of ululating joy.
00:12:53And a servant is running around, he says, what the hell, what's going on?
00:12:58And a servant says, oh, bro, your younger brother has returned.
00:13:08Your younger brother has returned, broke, skinny, starving, with nothing left.
00:13:16He took a third of the family fortune, maybe a half, but at least a third, he's got nothing left.
00:13:22And now, of course, the older brother, being wiser by definition, the older brother knows what this means.
00:13:34I mean, brothers often see brothers a lot clearer than fathers do.
00:13:41And what does the older brother know?
00:13:43The older brother knows that his younger brother has come back.
00:13:48Why?
00:13:49Because he's seen the light.
00:13:52No, he's broke.
00:13:54He's out of money.
00:13:55He's blown it all, he's broke, and he's back to prey upon the family again.
00:14:03Because he's an addict.
00:14:05He's a gambling addict, a sex addict, an alcoholic, drug addict.
00:14:13He is an addict.
00:14:14And he has scooped up vast chunks of the family fortune and cast it to the four winds of hedonism,
00:14:21turning his heart inside out and evacuating his soul in the pursuit of mere short-term transient fleshly pleasures.
00:14:29He's lived like an animal out there in a foreign country.
00:14:34Except an animal usually can't provoke guilt in you.
00:14:44So, the father says to the older son,
00:14:46Come in, come in!
00:14:48Your brother has returned!
00:14:50It is time to celebrate!
00:14:53And the older brother says,
00:14:55No, I'm not coming in.
00:14:56What, are you crazy?
00:14:58What's the matter?
00:14:59What's the matter with you?
00:15:02I slaved away on this family farm all these years!
00:15:07I don't disobey you, I don't do the wrong thing, I don't drink.
00:15:13I barely even touch the samovar.
00:15:17Geographical inaccuracies abound in this story that I'm telling.
00:15:22I don't use drugs, I don't womanize.
00:15:28And not a month ago,
00:15:33not a month ago,
00:15:35I wanted a party
00:15:37with my friends to celebrate
00:15:40a very important occasion.
00:15:43And you wouldn't even give me
00:15:47a little goat
00:15:48for the party.
00:15:53But for this
00:15:55ahem
00:15:56son,
00:15:57this a-hole son
00:15:58who has
00:16:00devoured
00:16:02your property
00:16:04with wine,
00:16:06song,
00:16:06drugs,
00:16:07and prostitutes,
00:16:08you killed the fatted calf.
00:16:12I am not coming in,
00:16:13I have nothing to celebrate,
00:16:15this is embarrassing
00:16:16and ridiculous,
00:16:17old man!
00:16:20And the father says,
00:16:22Son,
00:16:24you are always with me,
00:16:27and all I have is yours.
00:16:30But we
00:16:31have to celebrate,
00:16:34for this brother was dead
00:16:35and is alive,
00:16:37was lost,
00:16:39and now
00:16:40is found.
00:16:44and all is sunny
00:16:46and all is wonderful
00:16:51in the heart
00:16:52of the father.
00:16:53And we don't know
00:16:54how this is resolved,
00:16:55this is
00:16:55the start and end
00:16:57of the story.
00:17:00You know,
00:17:01a man has two sons,
00:17:02Simon and Adrian,
00:17:03right?
00:17:03That's from
00:17:03Life of Brian.
00:17:05This is like
00:17:06Cain and Abel,
00:17:07or
00:17:08Jacob and his sow,
00:17:11and
00:17:13it's a fairly
00:17:14original
00:17:16story.
00:17:18Now,
00:17:19why did Jesus
00:17:20tell the parable
00:17:21of the prodigal son?
00:17:22Well,
00:17:24I imagine
00:17:25it's because
00:17:26the Pharisees
00:17:27and teachers
00:17:28of the law
00:17:29were criticizing him
00:17:31for welcoming
00:17:31and eating
00:17:32with tax collectors
00:17:32and sinners,
00:17:34took the side
00:17:35of the stoned,
00:17:36sorry,
00:17:36took the side
00:17:37of the adulterous woman,
00:17:39he who was out sin,
00:17:41you can cast
00:17:42the first stone.
00:17:48So,
00:17:49these
00:17:49sinners,
00:17:50right,
00:17:51the tax collectors,
00:17:51the outcasts,
00:17:52the criminals,
00:17:55liked Jesus.
00:17:58He who was last
00:17:59shall become first,
00:17:59who was the lowest
00:18:00shall become the highest.
00:18:01There's a sort of
00:18:02Nietzschean resentment
00:18:03and desire for the
00:18:04wheel of fortune
00:18:05to switch
00:18:06in the afterlife,
00:18:06so
00:18:08the losers,
00:18:09the vagabonds,
00:18:10the criminals,
00:18:11the lowlifes
00:18:12are drawn
00:18:13towards Jesus'
00:18:15message.
00:18:18Because he says
00:18:19everyone's a sinner,
00:18:20well,
00:18:21you just know it
00:18:21better than others
00:18:22because you've actually
00:18:23sinned,
00:18:23everyone else is just
00:18:23pretending not to,
00:18:24like a
00:18:25Charles Dickensian
00:18:27quote,
00:18:28good guy.
00:18:30So,
00:18:30the religious leaders
00:18:31muttered about
00:18:32Jesus'
00:18:33taken in of the
00:18:34sinners.
00:18:34This man receives
00:18:36sinners and eats
00:18:36with them.
00:18:40So,
00:18:40of course,
00:18:41the younger son
00:18:42mirrors the sinners
00:18:43that Jesus embraces
00:18:45and the father
00:18:46is God
00:18:47who shows
00:18:48eager forgiveness.
00:18:52the elder brother
00:18:54is the self-righteous
00:18:55Pharisees
00:18:58and the story
00:19:00is in part
00:19:01designed to expose
00:19:02their resentment
00:19:02towards God's grace
00:19:03for others
00:19:04despite their own
00:19:05faithfulness.
00:19:05I have not broken
00:19:06the law.
00:19:07Why should you
00:19:07celebrate when
00:19:08somebody has broken
00:19:09the law and
00:19:09comes back?
00:19:13That there is more
00:19:14celebration in heaven
00:19:16for one repentant
00:19:18sinner than a
00:19:19thousand righteous
00:19:20men.
00:19:24So,
00:19:25it's a very
00:19:26interesting story.
00:19:33It's a very
00:19:34interesting story.
00:19:37And where does it
00:19:38go?
00:19:41Where does it
00:19:42go?
00:19:43There are tons of
00:19:44parallels in the
00:19:45modern world,
00:19:46of course.
00:19:49One of the
00:19:51most common
00:19:52parallels that
00:19:53I would put
00:19:53forward is
00:19:54the welfare
00:19:55state.
00:19:56That people
00:19:57in general
00:19:58who make
00:19:59bad,
00:20:00wrong,
00:20:01immature,
00:20:02foolish,
00:20:02and stupid
00:20:02decisions
00:20:04are lavished
00:20:06with gifts
00:20:06from the
00:20:07government.

00:20:12in America
00:20:13earns the
00:20:14equivalent of
00:20:15well over
00:20:15a hundred
00:20:16thousand dollars
00:20:16of pre-tax
00:20:18income in
00:20:18social programs.
00:20:19That is a
00:20:21Kim Kardashian
00:20:22BBL
00:20:23big ass
00:20:25number.
00:20:32When I was a
00:20:33kid,
00:20:34playing hide-and-go-seek,
00:20:35I hid behind the
00:20:36couch and fell
00:20:37asleep.
00:20:39And my mother
00:20:40and a couple of
00:20:40other adults
00:20:41were looking all
00:20:42over the place,
00:20:43thought I'd
00:20:44wandered off,
00:20:44left,
00:20:45maybe they
00:20:46left the
00:20:46door ajar
00:20:46and I
00:20:47wandered off.
00:20:48I was like
00:20:48maybe three
00:20:49years old.
00:20:51As they
00:20:51started roaming
00:20:52the neighborhood
00:20:52and they
00:20:53were about
00:20:53to call
00:20:53the cops,
00:20:59when a
00:21:00fat woman
00:21:01sat heavily
00:21:01at the
00:21:02couch,
00:21:02pushing it
00:21:03backwards,
00:21:03woke me up
00:21:04and I cried
00:21:04out.
00:21:05And my
00:21:06mother,
00:21:06of course,
00:21:07did the
00:21:09slap with
00:21:09anger,
00:21:10hug with
00:21:11passion,
00:21:12do-si-do
00:21:13one-two
00:21:13punch of
00:21:14rage and
00:21:15affection,
00:21:16relief.
00:21:17And, of course,
00:21:18in that moment,
00:21:19she treasured
00:21:19me,
00:21:22because she
00:21:23thought I was
00:21:23lost,
00:21:24and lo,
00:21:25I was
00:21:25foundeth
00:21:26behind the
00:21:27couch
00:21:28by the
00:21:28careening
00:21:29ass
00:21:30of a
00:21:31tubby
00:21:31British
00:21:31woman.
00:21:36So,
00:21:41what happens?
00:21:44Well,
00:21:44the addict
00:21:46hits rock
00:21:47bottom.
00:21:47Now, if
00:21:48you've ever
00:21:48been around
00:21:48addicts,
00:21:49they lie,
00:21:50they lie,
00:21:50they lie,
00:21:51they lie,
00:21:51they lie,
00:21:51they lie,
00:21:52they lie,
00:21:52first and
00:21:53foremost to
00:21:53themselves.
00:21:54When I'm
00:21:54trying to
00:21:55bring the
00:21:56truth to
00:21:56someone in
00:21:57a call
00:21:57and show
00:21:58or a
00:21:58conversation
00:21:58or a
00:21:59debate or
00:21:59something
00:21:59like that,
00:22:01one of the
00:22:02first things
00:22:02I probe,
00:22:03I'm sure
00:22:03you've heard
00:22:04me do this
00:22:04a million
00:22:04times if
00:22:05you listen
00:22:05to my
00:22:05show,
00:22:06one of the
00:22:06first things
00:22:07that I
00:22:07probe is,
00:22:09does this
00:22:10person lie
00:22:11to himself
00:22:11or herself?
00:22:14So, I
00:22:14point out a
00:22:15contradiction,
00:22:15I point out
00:22:16an inconsistency,
00:22:17I point out
00:22:17a fact that
00:22:18they have
00:22:19not acknowledged
00:22:19that is
00:22:20obviously
00:22:20fairly obvious,
00:22:21he said
00:22:22redundantly,
00:22:22and I see
00:22:23do they say,
00:22:24oh, that's
00:22:25true, or
00:22:25yes, that's,
00:22:25or do they
00:22:26just make
00:22:26something up
00:22:27and smoothly
00:22:27move on to
00:22:28the next
00:22:28topic?
00:22:28Because if
00:22:29somebody is
00:22:30going to
00:22:30lie to
00:22:31themselves,
00:22:33then expecting
00:22:34them to
00:22:34achieve the
00:22:35truth is
00:22:37like expecting
00:22:39Gary Coleman
00:22:40to rise to
00:22:41the top
00:22:41of the
00:22:42NBA,
00:22:43that's a
00:22:43short actor,
00:22:45by the way,
00:22:46deceased now,
00:22:47I think,
00:22:50so does he
00:22:54figure out,
00:22:58does he
00:22:59figure out
00:23:01that what he
00:23:01did is wrong
00:23:02and bad?
00:23:02No, he's
00:23:03just hungry,
00:23:05and especially
00:23:06if you've
00:23:07been around
00:23:07drug addicts
00:23:08or alcoholics,
00:23:10you know
00:23:11for an
00:23:11absolute fact
00:23:13that if
00:23:14you give
00:23:14them a
00:23:14thousand
00:23:15dollars,
00:23:15they will
00:23:16go away
00:23:17for the
00:23:17weekend,
00:23:18party
00:23:18themselves
00:23:18crazy,
00:23:19and will
00:23:19not even
00:23:20have two
00:23:20bucks for
00:23:21the bus
00:23:21fare home.
00:23:22They come
00:23:23home when
00:23:24they're out
00:23:25of money,
00:23:25not because
00:23:26they have
00:23:26understood
00:23:27anything,
00:23:28not because
00:23:29they have
00:23:29achieved any
00:23:30virtue.
00:23:32They come
00:23:32home when
00:23:39they need
00:23:40more
00:23:40resources,
00:23:42which is
00:23:42why he
00:23:44rehearses a
00:23:45speech.
00:23:45It's a very
00:23:45important detail.
00:23:46He rehearses
00:23:47a speech.
00:23:48Father, I have
00:23:49sinned against
00:23:49heaven and
00:23:50before you.
00:23:50I am no
00:23:51longer worthy
00:23:51to be called
00:23:52your son.
00:23:52Treat me
00:23:52as one of
00:23:53your hired
00:23:53servants.
00:23:56He's
00:23:57rehearsing
00:23:57a speech.
00:24:01Nowhere in
00:24:01the story
00:24:03does he
00:24:04come to
00:24:05any
00:24:05revelation
00:24:05about his
00:24:07laziness,
00:24:08his
00:24:08corruption,
00:24:09his greed,
00:24:10his
00:24:11dissolution,
00:24:12and his
00:24:12promotion
00:24:13of
00:24:19decadence
00:24:19and hedonism.
00:24:21Because people
00:24:22who have a lot
00:24:22of money and
00:24:23who are
00:24:23addicts spend
00:24:24their money
00:24:24often,
00:24:26not just on
00:24:27criminals,
00:24:28but also on,
00:24:29hey,
00:24:30a bottle for
00:24:31my friends,
00:24:32and they get
00:24:32other people
00:24:32into the
00:24:33lifestyle.
00:24:34And they
00:24:34are advertisements
00:24:35for that
00:24:36lifestyle.
00:24:37You know,
00:24:37like there's
00:24:38this manosphere
00:24:38thing.
00:24:39I watched
00:24:39this documentary
00:24:40with Louis
00:24:41Theroux,
00:24:42really manipulative
00:24:43and petty
00:24:43and weird.
00:24:44But for
00:24:47boys who
00:24:47grew up
00:24:47without
00:24:48fathers,
00:24:48in other
00:24:49words,
00:24:49without an
00:24:49intimate
00:24:50knowledge of
00:24:50masculinity
00:24:51based upon
00:24:51the provision
00:24:52and protection
00:24:53duality of
00:24:54masculinity,
00:24:55boys who
00:24:56grew up
00:24:56without
00:24:56fathers,
00:24:59are easy
00:25:00to sell
00:25:00caricatures
00:25:01of masculinity.
00:25:03It's easy
00:25:04to say
00:25:05to boys
00:25:06who grew
00:25:06up without
00:25:06fathers,
00:25:07well,
00:25:08son,
00:25:09being a
00:25:09man is
00:25:12having an
00:25:12expensive car.
00:25:14Being a
00:25:14man is
00:25:15having a
00:25:16lot of
00:25:16money.
00:25:17Being a
00:25:17man is
00:25:17having a
00:25:18lot of
00:25:18muscles.
00:25:19Being a
00:25:19man is
00:25:19having a
00:25:20lot of
00:25:21bikini
00:25:22clad
00:25:22babes.
00:25:24Being a
00:25:24man is
00:25:24having
00:25:25threesomes.
00:25:25That's just
00:25:26a caricature.
00:25:31being a
00:25:32man is
00:25:33being a
00:25:33high-status
00:25:34ape,
00:25:35not a
00:25:35virtuous
00:25:35provider and
00:25:36protector or
00:25:36defender of
00:25:37civilization.
00:25:39Because
00:25:39masculinity
00:25:40and
00:25:40femininity
00:25:41both exist
00:25:41for the
00:25:42sole purpose
00:25:42of creating
00:25:44and protecting
00:25:44children.
00:25:47And so
00:25:48you get
00:25:48these men,
00:25:49these
00:25:51puffed-up
00:25:52cartoon
00:25:52characters,
00:25:53and it's
00:25:55easy to
00:25:55sell this
00:25:55kind of
00:25:57vapid
00:25:57materialistic
00:25:59pompous
00:25:59blowhard
00:26:02caricature
00:26:03of
00:26:03masculinity
00:26:05to
00:26:05boys who've
00:26:06grown up
00:26:06without
00:26:06fathers and
00:26:07therefore
00:26:07want to
00:26:08know how
00:26:09to become
00:26:10men.
00:26:10And say,
00:26:11ah,
00:26:11men is
00:26:11Bugatti,
00:26:12men is
00:26:12expensive
00:26:13watch,
00:26:13men is
00:26:14muscle,
00:26:14men is
00:26:15abs,
00:26:15men is
00:26:16and it's
00:26:17all
00:26:17ridiculous,
00:26:17it's
00:26:18embarrassing
00:26:18really,
00:26:18but they
00:26:21are spreading
00:26:21this
00:26:22corruption,
00:26:23this
00:26:25hedonism,
00:26:26this
00:26:26shallowness.
00:26:28Being a
00:26:29man,
00:26:29really,
00:26:30is having
00:26:30moral courage,
00:26:32not a
00:26:33freaking
00:26:33yacht.
00:26:38so he
00:26:38hits rock
00:26:39bottom,
00:26:40he's
00:26:41dealing with
00:26:41the
00:26:41filthiest
00:26:42animals that
00:26:42Jews can
00:26:43deal with,
00:26:44he's
00:26:44envying
00:26:45their
00:26:47pig
00:26:47slop,
00:26:49I mean,
00:26:49it's a
00:26:50famine,
00:26:51imagine how
00:26:51bad the
00:26:51food is
00:26:52being fed
00:26:52to the
00:26:52pigs,
00:26:54and he's
00:26:54envying
00:26:54that,
00:26:55and so
00:26:55he's
00:26:56like,
00:26:56ah,
00:26:56I got a
00:26:57new play
00:26:57to make,
00:26:58man,
00:26:58I got a
00:26:58new play
00:26:58to make,
00:27:00can we
00:27:01go back
00:27:01to dad?
00:27:03I'm
00:27:03gonna be,
00:27:04I'm so
00:27:05terrible.
00:27:06He doesn't
00:27:07say that
00:27:07to himself.
00:27:09He doesn't
00:27:10say that
00:27:10to himself.
00:27:11He could
00:27:11say,
00:27:12oh,
00:27:12I'm so
00:27:13degraded,
00:27:13I've hit
00:27:14rock bottom,
00:27:14I've made
00:27:15terrible
00:27:15decisions,
00:27:16I've left
00:27:16God and
00:27:17my father
00:27:18and culture
00:27:19and wisdom
00:27:19and virtue
00:27:20behind.
00:27:20He doesn't
00:27:21say any
00:27:21of that.
00:27:23And the
00:27:23story is
00:27:24omniscient,
00:27:25it's,
00:27:25I mean,
00:27:26if anyone
00:27:27can write
00:27:28an omniscient
00:27:28story,
00:27:29it would
00:27:29be God
00:27:32himself,
00:27:33Jesus,
00:27:34omniscient,
00:27:34right?
00:27:36So God
00:27:37can certainly
00:27:38see into
00:27:38the mind
00:27:39of the
00:27:39younger
00:27:39brother.
00:27:40And what
00:27:41does God
00:27:42say about
00:27:42the younger
00:27:43brother?
00:27:45Well,
00:27:46the younger
00:27:46brother says,
00:27:47I'm envying
00:27:48the pigs
00:27:50and
00:27:53at least
00:27:54my father's
00:27:54servants have
00:27:55some food.
00:27:58so I
00:28:00am going
00:28:01to go
00:28:01home
00:28:03and I'm
00:28:04going to
00:28:04talk about
00:28:04being a
00:28:05sinner and
00:28:06I'm going
00:28:06to get
00:28:06some food
00:28:08and some
00:28:08shelter
00:28:12from
00:28:12my father
00:28:14because he
00:28:15rehearses the
00:28:15speech.
00:28:16He practices
00:28:17the exact
00:28:17words.
00:28:22he begins
00:28:23the speech
00:28:24when he
00:28:24gets back
00:28:25but admits
00:28:25the treat
00:28:25me like
00:28:26a hired
00:28:26servant
00:28:27because the
00:28:27father's
00:28:28embrace
00:28:28interrupts
00:28:29him and
00:28:29so on.
00:28:34And so
00:28:35clearly this
00:28:35is a
00:28:36favorite
00:28:37son.
00:28:39This is
00:28:39the father's
00:28:40favorite
00:28:40son.
00:28:41I've been
00:28:41meaning to
00:28:41post this
00:28:42on X.
00:28:42I haven't
00:28:42gotten
00:28:43around to
00:28:43it yet
00:28:44but
00:28:45come on
00:28:46everybody
00:28:46knows there
00:28:47are favorites
00:28:47within siblings
00:28:48and it's
00:28:49brutal but
00:28:50it's factual.
00:28:51I was my
00:28:52mother's
00:28:52favorite.
00:28:54It was not
00:28:55fair.
00:28:55Of course
00:28:56she associated
00:28:57my personality
00:28:59and abilities
00:28:59with those
00:29:00of her
00:29:00father
00:29:02who was
00:29:02a famous
00:29:03intellectual
00:29:04and writer
00:29:04in Germany
00:29:05so she
00:29:06associated me
00:29:06with her
00:29:08beloved father
00:29:08unfortunately
00:29:09she associated
00:29:10my brother
00:29:10with her
00:29:11despised ex-husband
00:29:12absolutely
00:29:13unfair
00:29:13but that is
00:29:14the way
00:29:15that it
00:29:15is.
00:29:17So
00:29:20the father
00:29:22cares the
00:29:23most for
00:29:23the youngest
00:29:24brother.
00:29:26There's an
00:29:26echo of
00:29:27this in
00:29:28an old
00:29:30Ron Howard
00:29:30movie
00:29:31which is
00:29:32really a
00:29:32good movie
00:29:33called
00:29:34Parenthood.
00:29:36Tom Hulse

00:29:40wayward
00:29:42younger
00:29:42son
00:29:43gambling
00:29:43addict
00:29:44schemer
00:29:45deal
00:29:45maker
00:29:46with a
00:29:47biracial
00:29:48son named
00:29:49Jazz
00:29:50that he
00:29:51had with
00:29:52a stripper
00:29:55and he
00:29:56is the
00:29:57father's
00:29:57favorite
00:29:58and the
00:29:58more
00:29:58responsible
00:29:59son
00:30:01is
00:30:02treated
00:30:03with
00:30:03relative
00:30:03contempt
00:30:04by the
00:30:04father.
00:30:07The story
00:30:09has
00:30:09issues and
00:30:11challenges
00:30:11and we'll
00:30:11get to the
00:30:13final bit
00:30:14right?
00:30:14I mean this
00:30:14always reminds
00:30:15me of
00:30:15Pip
00:30:16in Great
00:30:16Expectations
00:30:19but it
00:30:20doesn't make
00:30:20a lot of
00:30:21sense
00:30:21because the
00:30:21father
00:30:23divides his
00:30:23property
00:30:24between
00:30:24two
00:30:24sons
00:30:27and the
00:30:27eldest son
00:30:29works the
00:30:30field
00:30:30says I've
00:30:31slaved for
00:30:31you all
00:30:31these years
00:30:32never
00:30:32disobeyed
00:30:33but why
00:30:34would he
00:30:34slay for
00:30:34his father
00:30:35if his
00:30:35father has
00:30:36given him
00:30:36a third
00:30:37of his
00:30:37fortune?
00:30:38So that
00:30:38doesn't make
00:30:39much sense.
00:30:39It would
00:30:40make sense
00:30:41to me
00:30:42more sense
00:30:43if the
00:30:44father
00:30:44hives off
00:30:45or carves
00:30:47off
00:30:48a third
00:30:50of his
00:30:51fortune
00:30:51and gives
00:30:52it to
00:30:52the
00:30:54younger
00:30:54sibling
00:30:57and then
00:30:58does not
00:30:58give any
00:30:58money to
00:30:59the elder
00:30:59sibling.
00:31:00That to me
00:31:01would explain
00:31:01the resentment
00:31:02more but
00:31:03at least
00:31:04according to
00:31:04the story
00:31:06he gives a
00:31:06third a
00:31:07third or a
00:31:07half a half
00:31:08says it
00:31:08divides his
00:31:09property but
00:31:09I don't
00:31:09think it's
00:31:10half and
00:31:10half.
00:31:13So it's
00:31:13the big
00:31:14question.
00:31:16The
00:31:17redeemed
00:31:18sinner is
00:31:19infinitely more
00:31:20valuable than
00:31:21the upright
00:31:22man.
00:31:22In other
00:31:23words it
00:31:25is more
00:31:25pleasurable to
00:31:26forgive than
00:31:29to respect.
00:31:31It is more
00:31:32pleasurable to
00:31:33forgive than
00:31:35to respect.
00:31:38We forgive the
00:31:39sinner we
00:31:40respect the
00:31:41good man.
00:31:44Now a part
00:31:45of forgiving
00:31:45the sinner is
00:31:46just relief
00:31:47that he's
00:31:47back.
00:31:50But the
00:31:51real villain
00:31:51in my
00:31:52view in
00:31:53this story
00:31:54is the
00:31:54father.
00:31:56So of
00:31:57course as a
00:31:58father it
00:31:59is your
00:31:59job, one
00:32:00of your
00:32:01foundational
00:32:01jobs, to
00:32:04know your
00:32:06children's
00:32:07natures.
00:32:08See,
00:32:09parenting
00:32:11doesn't have
00:32:12a big
00:32:13effect on
00:32:15personality.
00:32:16Personality is
00:32:17significantly and
00:32:18in some
00:32:19measures
00:32:19overwhelmingly
00:32:20genetic.
00:32:21You know,
00:32:23extroverted,
00:32:23introverted,
00:32:24agreeableness,
00:32:25defiance,
00:32:26big five
00:32:26personality traits
00:32:27and a bunch of
00:32:27other stuff that
00:32:28you can kind of
00:32:29throw into the
00:32:29mix.
00:32:30But personality
00:32:31is significantly,
00:32:32if not downright
00:32:33overwhelmingly,
00:32:34genetic.
00:32:35Now, you can
00:32:36give your
00:32:37children moral
00:32:38values, of
00:32:38course, right?
00:32:39You can see that
00:32:40happening all over
00:32:40the world.
00:32:42So moral
00:32:43values, wisdom
00:32:44and instruction,
00:32:44instruction, but
00:32:46the personality
00:32:49of the child
00:32:50is the
00:32:53parent's job,
00:32:54the father's
00:32:55job to know
00:32:56and to
00:32:56understand.
00:32:57The big
00:32:57question is
00:33:00why does
00:33:01the father
00:33:03give the
00:33:04wastrel son
00:33:06a million
00:33:07dollars?
00:33:08Right?
00:33:09Let's say
00:33:09three million
00:33:10dollar estate,
00:33:11a third,
00:33:12a third,
00:33:12a third,
00:33:14a third
00:33:14of a million
00:33:15goes to the
00:33:15eldest,
00:33:16a third
00:33:16kept by the
00:33:16father,
00:33:17a third
00:33:17goes to the
00:33:17youngest.
00:33:18Well, why
00:33:18would you
00:33:18give a
00:33:19wastrel son
00:33:20who demands
00:33:21money ahead
00:33:21of your
00:33:21inheritance
00:33:22and says,
00:33:22I want,
00:33:23I want
00:33:24money as
00:33:24if you're
00:33:24dead,
00:33:25dad?
00:33:26Why would
00:33:27you give
00:33:27that money
00:33:31to your
00:33:31son?
00:33:33This is
00:33:34incredibly
00:33:35unwise
00:33:37parenting.
00:33:37Parenting.
00:33:42Because it's
00:33:43your job
00:33:43as a
00:33:43parent to
00:33:44know whether
00:33:45your son
00:33:45is going
00:33:46to put
00:33:46that money
00:33:48to good
00:33:48or bad
00:33:48ends.
00:33:49Now,
00:33:49maybe the
00:33:49son lied
00:33:51to the
00:33:52father.
00:33:53I hear
00:33:54there's a
00:33:54fantastic
00:33:55bridge
00:33:55building
00:33:56opportunity
00:33:57in
00:33:57Mesopotamia,
00:33:58dad.
00:33:58I'm going
00:33:58to go
00:33:59down and
00:33:59invest it
00:34:00and make
00:34:00a fortune.
00:34:01Maybe the
00:34:01son lied
00:34:02to the
00:34:02dad.
00:34:02But of
00:34:03course,
00:34:03it is the
00:34:03father's
00:34:04job to
00:34:04know how
00:34:05the resources
00:34:06are going
00:34:06to be
00:34:07used.
00:34:07And you
00:34:08don't give
00:34:08a million
00:34:09dollars to
00:34:10a lying,
00:34:11addicted
00:34:12wastrel
00:34:12of a
00:34:13son.
00:34:13Now,
00:34:14why,
00:34:14of course,
00:34:14also why,
00:34:15is the
00:34:16son a
00:34:18lying and
00:34:22wasteful
00:34:22person?
00:34:23Why is
00:34:23he false?
00:34:26Why does
00:34:26he blow
00:34:26his money?
00:34:27Why is
00:34:27he irresponsible?
00:34:28Because you've
00:34:29got the
00:34:29responsible son
00:34:30and you
00:34:30have the
00:34:31irresponsible
00:34:31son.
00:34:33Of course,
00:34:34there's no
00:34:34mention of
00:34:34the mother
00:34:35really,
00:34:36so we
00:34:36don't really
00:34:36know because
00:34:37this is a
00:34:38masculine
00:34:38story.
00:34:41Now,
00:34:41the older
00:34:41brother's
00:34:43frustration,
00:34:43of course,
00:34:44is completely
00:34:44understandable.
00:34:46So,
00:34:46I do the
00:34:47right thing,
00:34:48the old
00:34:48skin flint,
00:34:49I do the
00:34:49right thing,
00:34:50I slave,
00:34:50I work,
00:34:51I defer
00:34:51gratification,
00:34:52I act
00:34:53with honor
00:34:53and nobility
00:34:55and integrity
00:34:57and restraint,
00:34:58I defer
00:34:58gratification,
00:34:59and I get
00:35:00nothing.
00:35:01I get to be
00:35:01a servant
00:35:02slash slave,
00:35:03and when I
00:35:04want to have
00:35:05even a small
00:35:05party with my
00:35:06friends,
00:35:06you won't
00:35:07even give
00:35:07me a
00:35:08wizened
00:35:09old little
00:35:09goat,
00:35:11to cook
00:35:12up and
00:35:12share
00:35:12around.
00:35:14Now,
00:35:14again,
00:35:15if he's
00:35:15been given
00:35:15a third
00:35:16of the
00:35:16wealth,
00:35:16obviously,
00:35:17he would
00:35:17have the
00:35:17money to
00:35:17buy things
00:35:18himself,
00:35:18but the
00:35:18story's a
00:35:19little freaky
00:35:20that way,
00:35:21a little
00:35:21ambiguous,
00:35:22because if
00:35:23he's got a
00:35:23third of the
00:35:23wealth,
00:35:24he can
00:35:24throw his
00:35:24own
00:35:24party,
00:35:25right?
00:35:26This is
00:35:27why I
00:35:27think that
00:35:28the story
00:35:28only works
00:35:29logically
00:35:31if the
00:35:31father gives
00:35:32a third of
00:35:33his fortune
00:35:33to the
00:35:34youngest
00:35:34sibling,
00:35:35but nothing
00:35:35to the
00:35:36oldest,
00:35:38in which
00:35:39case,
00:35:39why?
00:35:41Why?
00:35:43It is also,
00:35:44of course,
00:35:44a parable of
00:35:45spoiling that
00:35:45when you give
00:35:47in to children's
00:35:47demands,
00:35:51then you
00:35:52make them
00:35:53less thoughtful,
00:35:56you make them
00:35:57less able to
00:35:58defer gratification
00:35:59and plan.
00:36:00You know,
00:36:01very early on,
00:36:03when my daughter
00:36:04would want
00:36:04something,
00:36:05yeah,
00:36:05store or some
00:36:06toy or whatever,
00:36:07I mean,
00:36:09I would,
00:36:10when she was
00:36:10very young,
00:36:11yeah,
00:36:11sure,
00:36:11but when she
00:36:12got older,
00:36:12it'd be like,
00:36:13great,
00:36:13you can pay
00:36:14half,
00:36:16pay half,
00:36:16or I think it
00:36:17started off,
00:36:18just pay a
00:36:18quarter,
00:36:19and then suddenly
00:36:19it's like,
00:36:20whoa,
00:36:20whoa,
00:36:20hang on,
00:36:21if this isn't
00:36:22like just
00:36:24infinite parental
00:36:24money bags,
00:36:25that's a
00:36:25different matter,
00:36:28and that's
00:36:29how you teach
00:36:29children the
00:36:30value of money
00:36:31and restraint
00:36:31and deferral
00:36:32of gratification
00:36:33and all kinds
00:36:34of good things.
00:36:37I don't
00:36:38subscribe to
00:36:39this point
00:36:39of view.
00:36:41It'd be such
00:36:41an ignorant
00:36:42thing to do
00:36:42if the Russians
00:36:43left their
00:36:43children too.
00:36:45I don't
00:36:45subscribe to
00:36:46this point
00:36:46of view.
00:36:48I don't
00:36:49believe that
00:36:49the son
00:36:49has learned
00:36:50anything.
00:36:51I think
00:36:52the son
00:36:53blew all
00:36:53of his
00:36:54money
00:36:54and came
00:36:55home.
00:36:57And the
00:36:58same
00:36:58indulgence
00:36:59that the
00:36:59father gives
00:37:00to the son
00:37:01by giving
00:37:01him,
00:37:01who's
00:37:02obviously
00:37:02a wastrel
00:37:03and an
00:37:04addict,
00:37:04a third
00:37:05of the
00:37:05family fortune,
00:37:06is then,
00:37:07ah,
00:37:07don't say
00:37:08anything,
00:37:08you're
00:37:09forgiven
00:37:09just because
00:37:10you ran
00:37:10out of
00:37:11money.
00:37:14Now,
00:37:15this is not
00:37:16a good
00:37:16analogy
00:37:18for God,
00:37:19sinners,
00:37:19and forgiveness
00:37:20because God
00:37:22knows
00:37:24what is in
00:37:24the sinner's
00:37:25heart.
00:37:25Has the
00:37:26sinner really
00:37:26changed his
00:37:27mind?
00:37:27Has he
00:37:27really learned
00:37:28virtue?
00:37:29Has he
00:37:29processed it
00:37:30all,
00:37:30how much
00:37:31harm he's
00:37:32done to
00:37:32others?
00:37:34Right?
00:37:35Has he
00:37:35processed
00:37:36it all?
00:37:36This is
00:37:37the addicts.
00:37:38This is
00:37:38one of the
00:37:38reasons why
00:37:39addicts are
00:37:40so tough
00:37:40to reform
00:37:41because they've
00:37:41accumulated so
00:37:42much wrong
00:37:43and harm
00:37:43that they've
00:37:44done to
00:37:44others that
00:37:44their conscience
00:37:45has become
00:37:45a viper
00:37:46or a boa
00:37:47constrictor
00:37:47that will
00:37:47squeeze the
00:37:48life out
00:37:48of them
00:37:49should they
00:37:50ever admit
00:37:50to themselves
00:37:51or to
00:37:51others the
00:37:52wrongs that
00:37:52they have
00:37:52done.
00:38:00So,

01:04:30I
01:04:30have

01:04:31ever
01:04:34lowered
01:04:34my
01:04:34respect
01:04:35for
01:04:35someone
01:04:37who
01:04:37has
01:04:38come up
01:04:38with a
01:04:38genuine
01:04:39apology
01:04:40with the
01:04:40restitution
01:04:41reasonable
01:04:42ways in
01:04:42which it's
01:04:42never going
01:04:43to happen
01:04:43again
01:04:43blah blah
01:04:44blah
01:04:49now where
01:04:50I do
01:04:50lose
01:04:51respect
01:04:51is people
01:04:52who won't
01:04:52admit fault
01:04:52and won't
01:04:53apologize
01:04:53even when
01:04:54they're
01:04:54clearly in
01:04:54the wrong
01:04:54I have
01:04:55no respect
01:04:55for that
01:04:56that's
01:04:56that's
01:04:57sad
01:04:58that's
01:04:58that's
01:04:59really
01:04:59pathetic
01:05:00it's
01:05:01embarrassing
01:05:02it's
01:05:02cringe
01:05:08so
01:05:10people
01:05:11people
01:05:11with no
01:05:11history
01:05:11of
01:05:11apologizing
01:05:13can't
01:05:13apologize
01:05:14I mean
01:05:15you have
01:05:15to work
01:05:16your way
01:05:16up
01:05:16it's
01:05:16a muscle
01:05:17you need
01:05:17to develop
01:05:17it's a
01:05:18humility
01:05:18you need
01:05:19to develop
01:05:20and people
01:05:21who don't
01:05:21apologize
01:05:22are operating
01:05:23on the
01:05:23base
01:05:23assumption
01:05:23that
01:05:26they've
01:05:26never done
01:05:26anything
01:05:27wrong
01:05:27and they
01:05:27never
01:05:28will
01:05:28and that's
01:05:29just not
01:05:29true
01:05:29that's
01:05:30just a
01:05:30lie
01:05:33everybody
01:05:33over the
01:05:34inevitable
01:05:34jagged
01:05:35road bump
01:05:35course
01:05:36of human
01:05:36affairs
01:05:36interactions
01:05:37and events
01:05:38is going
01:05:38to do
01:05:38things
01:05:38wrong
01:05:39is going
01:05:39to do
01:05:40something
01:05:40wrong
01:05:42and therefore
01:05:43needs to
01:05:44apologize
01:05:45but
01:05:46vain people
01:05:47won't admit
01:05:47that they're
01:05:48wrong
01:05:48and also
01:05:48vain people
01:05:49will never
01:05:49apologize
01:05:51because they
01:05:52imagine that
01:05:52those they
01:05:53apologize to
01:05:54would behave
01:05:54in the same
01:05:55vainglorious
01:05:56vindictive way
01:05:56that they
01:05:57would if
01:05:57someone apologized
01:05:58to them
01:05:58it's just
01:05:59projection
01:06:00people won't
01:06:00humble themselves
01:06:01to apologize
01:06:02because they're
01:06:02vain
01:06:04and you can't
01:06:05have a relationship
01:06:06with vain people
01:06:06because they'll
01:06:07always choose
01:06:08their own vanity
01:06:08over you
01:06:10and the truth
01:06:12so that's my
01:06:13very brief
01:06:14analysis
01:06:14because somebody
01:06:16did axe
01:06:17somebody did
01:06:18axe for this
01:06:19that's my sort of
01:06:19very brief analysis
01:06:22of the parable
01:06:24of the prodigal
01:06:25son
01:06:27it's a vile
01:06:28story
01:06:30of intergenerational
01:06:31addiction
01:06:32it's a vile
01:06:33story of emotional
01:06:34bullying and
01:06:34manipulation
01:06:36and it's a vile
01:06:37story
01:06:37of the punishment
01:06:39of the virtuous
01:06:39for the sake
01:06:41of bribing the
01:06:42emotional terrorists
01:06:42and addicts
01:06:43among us

01:19:31it's
01:19:31kind
01:19:31of
01:19:31like
01:19:31water
01:19:32that
01:19:32freezes
01:19:32to

01:19:33of
01:19:33overextend
01:19:34the

01:19:34perhaps

01:19:36after
01:19:36that
01:19:37or
01:19:37at
01:19:44all
01:19:44right
01:19:44he
01:19:44may
01:19:44be
01:19:45here
01:19:45the
01:19:45one
01:19:45other
01:19:45thing
01:19:46I
01:19:46would
01:19:46say
01:19:46and
01:19:46I
01:19:46do
01:19:47this
01:19:47in the
01:19:47R versus
01:19:47K
01:19:48presentations
01:19:48and so
01:19:49on
01:19:49gene
01:19:49wars
01:19:49but the
01:19:50other
01:19:50thing
01:19:51that I
01:19:51would
01:19:51say
01:19:51is
01:19:52that
01:19:55we
01:19:56know
01:19:56that
01:19:57fatherlessness
01:19:58promotes
01:19:59promiscuity
01:20:00as a whole
01:20:02fatherlessness
01:20:02tends to
01:20:03promote
01:20:03promiscuity
01:20:04and
01:20:05fatherlessness
01:20:06will tend
01:20:07to have
01:20:08girls go
01:20:09into
01:20:10menstruation
01:20:10earlier
01:20:10and have
01:20:12a higher
01:20:12sex drive
01:20:12and so
01:20:13on
01:20:13because
01:20:13fatherlessness
01:20:14assumes
01:20:15that
01:20:15it's a
01:20:16dangerous
01:20:16and unpredictable
01:20:17environment
01:20:17and therefore
01:20:18to have
01:20:19more children
01:20:19with lower
01:20:20investment
01:20:20would be
01:20:21the
01:20:22best
01:20:23survivor
01:20:24strategy
01:20:24as a whole
01:20:26all right
01:20:27I think
01:20:27he's been
01:20:28lost a little
01:20:28bit
