I lament deeply, deeply I lament the decline of Christianity.
|
|
We are not in a post-Christian world, my friends.
|
|
We are in a pre-Judeo-Christian world.
|
|
We are reverting to pre-Old Testament values, like the worship of nature.
|
|
And we're getting close to human sacrifice, I'm telling you.
|
|
This has been the issue of my life, the consequences of secularism.
|
|
It's been the one consistent theme of all of my work in life since my 20s.
|
|
Everybody knows the consequences of bad religion.
|
|
And there are bad religious people, and have been, and still are.
|
|
However, secularism is a dead end.
|
|
Even though there are many nice secular people, it is a dead end.
|
|
I was talking to you last hour, I just mentioned in passing, the civil war in Ethiopia, about which you probably know nothing.
|
|
I don't blame you because the press doesn't report it.
|
|
The preoccupation is with Israel, where, I don't know, what is the latest...
|
|
The latest figure of Palestinians killed in Gaza, I don't know, is it 20,000?
|
|
And that's everybody, including...
|
|
And by the way, we have no idea, and I reviewed with you why there is no reason to believe the data coming from Hamas.
|
|
I mean, all of a sudden, Hamas is a truth-teller.
|
|
But let's say it's true.
|
|
Let's keep that number in mind.
|
|
There is a civil war.
|
|
There has been for two years in Ethiopia.
|
|
500,000 people have been killed.
|
|
500,000.
|
|
Overwhelmingly civilians.
|
|
Now you don't even know about it.
|
|
Let alone are there any marches on campuses.
|
|
Because they don't care about anybody except those who are fighting Jews.
|
|
J-E-W-S. Israel is Jewish, so they hate Israel.
|
|
You can't give me another good reason.
|
|
It's the only Jewish state on earth.
|
|
It's the size of New Jersey.
|
|
So 60,000 black Christians in West Africa slaughtered, raped, tortured, kidnapped by Muslims.
|
|
Nothing.
|
|
2% of Harvard students don't know it has happened.
|
|
0% know about Ethiopia.
|
|
Oh, they're just dead blacks killed by blacks.
|
|
Why do we care?
|
|
Half a million.
|
|
Why do we care?
|
|
We're college students.
|
|
We care about Israel.
|
|
Palestinians are very lucky that their enemy is the Jewish state.
|
|
Otherwise, nobody would know how to spell the word Palestinian.
|
|
Half a million in Ethiopia in two years.
|
|
Nothing!
|
|
And the number of women raped is approximately 100,000.
|
|
100,000.
|
|
So much for those of you fools who believe that human nature is basically good.
|
|
Oh, what a stupid belief.
|
|
What a stupid belief!
|
|
It gets me so angry, as you can tell.
|
|
Just thought I'd share that with you.
|
|
I'm not a fan of stupidity.
|
|
But the well-educated of the stupidest and the most likely to believe people are basically good.
