Pastor Jack and Amir Tsarfati of @beholdisrael, sift through God’s Word and discuss the “facts” of current Global events and this global pandemic. Take a look at how all of this lines up with the Bible and what God’s plans are for His church in the end times.
so i know you’re in favor of the
legalization of marijuana
based on like your past yeah
decriminalization yeah
but um what is your opinions on like any
regulations we should impose on it
so obviously i think you need age
regulations uh i think you have to
ensure that the weird thing about
decriminalization of marijuana is that
this free price is so cheap
that decriminalizing it to the point
where it’s still not beneficial to buy
it illegally is is a little bit
difficult
uh the reason i’m for decriminalization
of marijuana by the way is not because i
like marijuana i think people who smoke
it are losers
uh and
it smells terrible and you’re wasting
your brain cells the reason that the
reason that
i’m in favor of decriminalization is
because the government is terrible at
everything
and the and whatever levels of
criminalization have taken place have
done nothing to prevent
the access to marijuana for young people
they’ve just done nothing i mean
when i was in junior high in public
school walter reed middle school people
were selling it on the playground
uh so that’s not so it’s you know um
i i think that criminal treating it like
cigarettes is probably the best way to
do it
you know a heavy tax and uh and
decriminalization to the point where if
you’re above a certain age you can use
it like alcohol or cigarettes makes
the sense to me thank you all right
thank you next question
how do we stop the media with what
they’re doing dividing us they’re
dividing us greatly how could we
exchange something to make it different
what can we
do well i mean i think the first thing
you can do is stop watching cnn and
msnbc
i don’t i i figured i figured from your
question i was assuming that
um but i mean the the good news is that
i think that the
the age of a dominant left media is
basically over the fragmentation of the
media is is one of the reasons i’m
hopeful
the fragmentation of the media has taken
place like our website which didn’t
exist three years ago now gets 140
million pages a month
so this is so and we’re not unique in
that area like there are a lot of places
that are getting
more viewership also i think more
long-form engagement is happening too
and one of the problems that i have with
cable tv as in general is that you have
to make an argument in two minutes flat
or three minutes flat which encourages
you to make the broadest possible
version of the argument
and also to straw man the arguments uh
yeah we’re we’re all better off watching
you know hour-long exchanges than than
we are watching sort of the cable news
cycle
uh and right now it seems like the the
polarization that’s happening on cable
news
is largely driving a lot of the hatred
because the easiest way but the easiest
shortcut in politics to victory is to
attack the character the people you’re
talking about
and it’s something i’ve been trying to
work on myself because it’s so hard not
to just call people stupid
but it’s but but with that said
uh yeah there’s a there’s a jewish
principle called don the cuffs close
which is to suggest that
you have to assume the best of
intentions on the part of people uh
as general rule that doesn’t happen too
much uh in cable news but
i think the threat of the mainstream
media is waning i think president trump
has demonstrated that’s one thing
president trump has demonstrated full
scale
