Summary

Today we're finishing our discussion with James Lindsay about history, Marxism, and theology. As James explains exactly what Marxism is and what its historical roots are, it becomes increasingly clear that this ideology is entirely antithetical to that of the Christian's. Apparently, the Marxists want redemption for mankind as well, but they believe that can only happen when literally everyone on Earth has complied with their worldview. We also discuss some Christian theology as well, and why it is has been such a good foundation for Western Civilization to thrive on. And although James isn't a Christian, he talks about why he still thinks Judeo-Christian values are the best for society. --- Today's Sponsors: Birch Gold are the best people to trust to help you diversify your 401(k) & IRAs into gold.
