TRANSCRIPT
Generated using A.I.; please forgive any mistakes.
One of you mentioned the Scottish Enlightenment era, and that's a really important era. There's one of the books is actually in my book, Invasion. We reprinted it from the 1600s called Killing No Murder, and I'm working on another one from that same era called Minkatakal, The Downfall of Tyranny, and those two books really bring in some principles of natural law. They define what a tyrant is.
They define what is the godly response. It goes through the scriptures, through the Old Testament, New Testament, and shows what is the godly person's response to a tyrant. What is a godly definition of a tyrant? What does that mean for us? And so that era, I love that era. The founding fathers read a lot of that stuff, and so I just want people to know that, yes, that is something that is in the book, and then we're reprinting another book from that era that really is just vital reading for us to be able to actually start to go on the offense.
So I appreciate you bringing that era. - Very cool, that's exciting. Thank you. I'm glad I brought it up. That's cool.
