01) How Parents Of Baby Boomers Felt About Their Kids
“As many of my subscribers know, this is a clip from my 6 part PBS documentary series, making sense of the 60s. I loved talking with experts and authors and parents who raise kids at the time where I was a kid. I learned a lot. Most of this section is about the experience that parents had in white middle-class America. Another section of my documentary deals with the experience that black parents and black kids had.
A quote from Hesiod, 8th Century BC “I see no hope for the future of our people if they are dependent on frivolous youth of today, for certainly all youth are reckless beyond words. When I was young, we were taught to be discreet and respectful of elders, but the present youth are exceedingly disrespectful and impatient of restraint – David Hoffman”

01) Waking Up with Sam Harris #139 – Sacred & Profane (with Bill Maher and Larry Charles)
“In this episode of the Waking Up podcast, Sam Harris gets together with Bill Maher and Larry Charles to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their film “Religulous.” They discuss religion, politics, comedy, and other dangerous topics.
Bill Maher has set the boundaries of where funny, political talk can go on American television. First on “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC, 1993-2002), and for the last fifteen years on HBO’s “Real Time,” Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 40 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous,” directed by Larry Charles. The documentary has gone on to become the 8th Highest Grossing Documentary ever.
Larry Charles is an American writer, director, and producer. Charles was a staff writer for the American sitcom “Seinfeld“ for its first five seasons, contributing some of the show’s darkest and most absurd storylines. He has also directed the mockumentary comedy films “Borat” and “Brüno,” the documentary film “Religulous,” and comedy film The Dictator.”

01) When A Homeless Girl Begged On The Streets
“The wind blows the child’s makeshift sign, which reads “Homeless and Hungry, Please Help,” and she leans forward to straighten it. She’s sitting alone on the street with only a piece of cardboard to protect her from the cold, hard sidewalk. The girl doesn’t look older than ten, maybe 11 at a push. Most people just pass by, until someone finally sits down to chat – and we find out something remarkable.”

The Bible also says nothing, about forbidding committed relations between men and boys. …Pedophilia is not condemned by the Bible. It seems…the main sexual practices attacked in the Bible, are prostitution and pagan ritual sex. The social structure they wanted…was one where males and females paired and lived together…made babies with each other…and were around to raise those babies into adulthood… It was oriented around growing the number of humans, in it’s cultural collective…and hence, enlarging it’s power. They wanted to stamp out competing religions, as well… …If they allowed other religions to “up stage” Christianity…if other religions were way more fun and satisfying than Christianity…then who would want to be a Christian? |

Geraint F. Lewis is a Welsh astrophysicist at the University of Sydney. He’s best known for his work on dark energy, gravitational lensing and galactic cannibalism.
This talk and Q&A was filmed in the Ri on 24 July 2018.”

01) Mark Blyth on “Story in the Public Square”
“One of the most persistent ideas in the politics of the West, whether we’re talking about Europe or the United States, is that government debt is best attacked through reducing government spending. Mark Blyth, warns though, that “austerity,” as such plans are known, is a historically dangerous idea.”
