Summary

Today we're talking about the Left's favorite pretend villain: Christian nationalism. As one year passed since the Capitol riot, the bad takes about Christianity and conservatives were flying fast and furious all over the internet. Even renowned Christian theologians like Russell Moore have fallen into the trap of thinking that "Christian nationalism" is some kind of existential threat to America. We'll discuss why that isn't the case and how the real threat of authoritarianism in America is coming from the Left, not conservatives. And, we respond to the pope's recent comment that couples who have pets instead of having kids are being selfish. Timecodes: (0:00) Introduction (1:12) Dems will keep using Jan. 6th to convince people to give them more power (10:48) The Christian Nationalism "villain" (37:25) Pope Francis says people who only have pets & not children are selfish --- Today's Sponsors: Chamonix by Genucel is having a huge clearance event right now — save 60% off their handpicked, most popular package to take care of all your skincare needs.

0:00.0	Hey guys, welcome to relatable. Hope everyone is having a wonderful week. So far, happy
0:14.6	Wednesday. If you haven't listened to Monday and Tuesday's episodes, make sure you do
0:18.6	that. Got lots of good stuff. Talk about lots of things in both of those episodes. This
0:25.2	episode is brought to you by our friends at Good Ranchers. We love good ranchers, beef
0:31.6	and better than organic chicken at our house. Make sure you check them out at goodranchors.com
0:36.7	slash alley. Alright, today we are going to talk about a few things that are just grinding
0:41.0	my gears. We're going to talk about these accusations of January 6th being the same thing
0:47.0	as 9-11 or as Pearl Harbor and this threat of Christian nationalism that we are just
0:56.0	seen everywhere. I want to give you my response to that. We'll talk about a few other things
1:00.4	too if I have time. I'm also going to answer some questions that you guys sent me on Instagram.
1:06.6	First, let's talk about January 6th a little bit. I know you guys are probably tired
1:13.5	of hearing about January 6th. So am I, but we're not going to stop hearing about it because
1:19.0	this is going to be what the Democrats continue to use to convince people to give them more
1:25.8	power. It's a little ironic that while they are saying that they're right is threatening
1:32.1	democracy and they're using January 6th as proof of that. They are asking you to give
1:37.4	the federal government more power over things like elections. As I mentioned yesterday and
1:42.5	maybe mentioned Monday as well, that's going to be the next big push. Joe Biden's signature
1:48.3	legislation, that huge bill, billed back better that had all kinds of left wing agenda items.
1:57.8	Maybe some good things, maybe some bipartisan things, but ultimately the cost was just too
2:01.9	high to get enough senators on board. Of course, Republicans are glad about this. Conservatives
2:09.0	are glad about this because of the price tag and also just because of the socially left
2:15.4	wing items that were in the bill. So because that failed, at least for now, they're going
