And the Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Hello it's me. I usually start but I just thought I'd do something different because I'm trying to cheer myself up here a little bit.

0:37.5

Greg Cocle with Stan to Reason and I'm trying to cheer myself up because I'm really really bothered about something

0:44.0

we're going to talk about here this first hour and I'm glad I can kind of chuckle, keep

0:48.7

my good humor about it, but it in this it's quite serious. We have, I've talked in the last few weeks about the whole

0:58.6

Alistair Beg thing and my concern is sometimes Christian, good Christian people say things that are foolish, so we don't

1:06.1

make demons out of them, you know, and they're still good people, even though they may have bad

2:46.6

exertation regarding the dangers of a view offered by or maybe a project offered by otherwise good people
