| 0:00.0 | The well-known author and speaker, Jordan Peterson, has recently opened up talking about the Catholic |
| 0:06.7 | Church, Bishop Barron, and the question, why is it that Christians today fail? Why don't we capture |
| 0:15.8 | the culture? Why are we in decline? And he refers back to an interview, a discussion he had with |
| 0:24.2 | Bishop Robert Barron, and Jordan Peterson says the problem is, especially with the Catholic Church, |
| 0:30.4 | is beginning in the 1960s, you began to demand less. You watered it down. You made it less demanding, |
| 0:40.8 | and that's why you lost people, and it's why you're losing people. And he talks in particular about |
| 0:47.7 | how to capture the attention of young men for the faith. Let's watch Jordan Peterson explain it. |
| 0:57.5 | And when I read this question for you, you're going to realize how technical of a question he's asking |
| 1:01.7 | you. Okay. And I'm curious to know what you're taking, what your taking is going to be on this. |

| 1:30.4 | approach to salvation. Number one, number two, he then had the opportunity to interview Bishop |
| 1:35.2 | Barron as part of his podcast name, Christianity and the modern world, and most of us expect him to |
| 1:41.7 | ask some really tough questions about the issue. He criticized, but he never happened. Never happened. |
| 1:46.4 | He almost looked overwhelmed by the moment and the conversation. He almost looked like a man |
| 1:50.7 | that wanted to confess. Okay. Why did he avoid the tough questions? Bishop Barron was the best |
| 1:56.2 | person, the most qualified person to clear what I believe is a mistaken perspective about the |
| 2:00.0 | Catholic Church. His he talking, is he talking about the pre-Vatican, the second or the post-Vatican, |
| 2:05.4 | the second church? Is he familiar with the current conflict that emerged from the Vatican, the second? |
