0:00.0 | And so I wrote a little blog. I said that seminary professors should |
0:07.9 | interpret exegetically. I never had had this professor in any class |
0:11.2 | before. He was an undergrad guy. But a couple |
0:14.6 | days later, it was two days later, I had a message from, I believe it was the |
0:19.9 | vice president of the school and he said that I shouldn't have done that I |
0:25.0 | shouldn't have posted this thing now my realize this is on my personal blog |
0:29.4 | and I'm writing about a bigger political issue this just happens, I thought, a good example of the error of |
0:34.9 | presentism and isigetical interpretation when it comes to history. So I'm using this as an example. |
0:41.6 | I wasn't trying to just, you you know I was upset that the school I did put in there you know I was thankful for people at the school but I was upset that my tuition money is going towards things like this |

1:20.0 | There's not a distinction between this field and another field the rules apply either way and |
1:27.6 | This made me realize something and something that I'll probably develop a little more later, but the school, this is how schools become liberal, okay? |
1:37.0 | Other influences outside that people that don't have perhaps, and maybe they're not even aware of it, but they don't have a Christ-centered |
1:45.8 | historiography let's say, or pick whatever discipline you want, a science, whatever. |
1:51.0 | They will infiltrate, and maybe they're not even try to infiltrate but they just they become |
1:56.0 | professors out of school and because you know maybe they're very involved in their |
