I'm not a fan of Wikipedia but........"Weissmann grew up in a New York Jewish family, where he attended the Ethical Culture Fieldston School."
The "Ethical Culture Fieldston School"? Well I had to look that up. Can you imagine attending a school that goes by that name? Seems like just a little virtue signaling.
From ChatGPT; "The school was founded in 1878 by Felix Adler, a philosopher and social reformer who also founded the Society for Ethical Culture. Adler was of Jewish heritage but did not promote Judaism or any particular religion. Instead, he sought to educate children in moral values and social responsibility without formal religious instruction. The goal was to create a school where “deed, not creed” defined moral education — teaching children to act ethically, care for others, and serve society."
"Ethical Culture Fieldston School emphasizes: Ethics as the core of education
Progressive, inquiry-based learning; Social justice, civic engagement, and diversity; Community service and moral reasoning."
In other words the school taught "humanism". This is morality without theology. In other words the wisdom of man instead of the wisdom of God.
Christian thinkers like C.S. Lewis and Francis Schaeffer responded strongly to the rise of humanist and relativist education. They stressed that moral law comes from God & is the same for all people, times & cultures. Human reason is valuable, but it's not infallible; it needs to be guided by divine truth. Education should teach students to love truth & goodness as God defines them. Without God, moral values become subjective and lose authority.
Yes my point exactly. Yet Andrew Weissmann was educated to believe that human reasoning is infallible. These folks have cut themselves off from the wisdom of God.
Although I agree with this sentiment, I am a strong Christian because I believe in truth. God is truth regardless of someones interpretation of the bible. I know that the bible is one of the most historically accurate books in existence but if you think "trust the science" was bad wait until you get "trust my interpretation of the bible". It is beyond dangerous to have a theocracy.....There is really no such thing as a theocracy because no person in any government is God. They are only men pretending to be God by claiming they have a special line to him. If you don't believe me just look up the Spanish inquisition or Joan of Arc.
OK I just took your suggestion and asked ChatGPt "Are you a reliable source?". This was it's response:
"Yes — I’m designed to be a reliable and neutral source of information, but with an important distinction:
I don’t make up facts and I cite or check current sources (especially when using the web tool).
I summarize and explain information from credible references, but I’m not myself a “primary source” like a government record, eyewitness account, or peer-reviewed paper.
When something isn’t verifiable or appears speculative, I’ll flag that clearly rather than guess."
Again what search engines do you use? I find it to be just another tool in the tool box. What I find offensive is your attitude......
The circular logic is part of the reason for my wording - there's simpler way to say it, but since Weissmann presented intellectual lawyerly gobbledygook, it needed an appropriate interpretation.
If I remember correctly, isn't Weissman the guy who went off the radar for a while because several women who worked under him accused him of harassment?

💯 we were created by God so everything has to come from God

Logic is infallible not human reasoning. Logic is just math (truth) applied to human reasoning.
Yep
Interesting. Sounds like - create the culture then apply cultural relativism to it.

Yes Sir! I'll only use sources you approve of!
Can you prove the quote false? Do you use any of the search engines?

Hows it feel conmie.
Listened to it 4 times - the only thing I get out of it is our way is the only way and it's wrong for anyone to even think our actions merit scrutiny
Ding! 🤓
He says "the way they are supposed to behave" vs. "the way they are behaving" Who is "they" and how they are defining "supposed to behave"
It's like you say, somehow, the speaker claims moral authority to define how it is "supposed" to go.
It's really a circular non-argument and makes no sense. Typical liberal word salad.

Where will the trials take place?
Yes, yes, yes keep the investigations and trials far away from the congressional clown show
