Are we seeing the revitalization of conservative civilization all over the world has been a massive backlash against globalization, its leftist leadership, and its anti-cultural liberal values, and it's just the beginning.

I'm Dr. Steve Turley. I believe the liberal globalist world is at its brink, and a new conservative age is rising.

Join me every day as we examine these worldwide trends, discover answers to today's toughest challenges, and together learn to live in the present in light of even better things to come.

This is Turley Talks.

Lord and Iblik, Dr. Steve, are we concerned that all BRICS members have religious beliefs and traditions that are historically hostile towards Christianity and Israel joining together with that as well? God bless.

Well, Lord Nimblik is bringing up an excellent point here. We're increasingly moving from geopolitics to theopolitics.

And that's because the modern age, classical civilization society, the society upon which Europe is founded, the society upon which America was founded, and so forth, it's like a triangle.

I like to say it's like a Christmas tree, so it starts with the sacred, the absolute, the unquestionable, on top.

Nature, nature's God, as it were, the virtue traditions that are necessary for the civic virtue, which is necessary for a free people, for a self-governing people.

It starts with religious traditions on top, and then you have your political class of some kind, legal class, whatever, you have some kind of military class, and then you have your mercantile, your merchant class, I should say mercantilisms different, but your merchant class, your artisans, and so forth, that's just kind of the way it's structured.

What the modern secular, globalist age did is it turned that upside down, so now the technocrats are on top, right?

The mercantilists, the technocrats, and the politicians, they're just bought and paid for bodies, but they're on the top, and the sacred is completely thrown away.

And so 19th century, international relations, 20th century, international relations, was all about how secular states, how politics interrelates to one another.

So the globalist idea was to make everybody's politics the same, liberal politics, all across the board, corporate economy, corporate capitalism, all across the board, woke liberal values all across the board.

What the BRICS countries are basically doing is they're turning that world back upside down as we go from a modern age to a postmodern age.

So the sacred is back now, Russian Orthodox, you know, neo-Orthodox Russia, neo-confucianist China, which that's what President Xi basically says, they're not communist, they're Confucian now, the mandate of heaven, though it's a Tianjiang concept of the mandate of heaven.

Neo-Hindu nationalist India, neo-automant Turkey, you know, theocratic Iran, you know, monarchical Saudi Arabian, UAE.

So BRICS represents a coalition made up of multiple different political systems, but they're all united by common economic concerns, but also common concerns for the centrality of culture at the heart of everything, and religion is the cult of culture.

So that's, I'm just to give Lord Nibblik his full paradigm there. So are we concerned? Well, yeah, we could be, but you do have Eastern Orthodox Christianity is very friendly to Islam, generally speaking, and geopolitically speaking.

Just seeing that with, with Russia today, neo-orthodox Russia, getting along very well with Iran, very well with Saudi Arabia, very well with UAE.

And big US with Turkey, but that's just because Turkey and Erdogan's policy is, and by its nature plays the West and the East off of each other.

So it'll be interesting to see how Israel fits into that no question. Now, if you were able to bring some peace between Saudi Arabian Iran, Shiite and Sunni, it's not as fundamental as the problems between the Middle East and Israel.
