- Patrick Bet-David delves deep into the complex relationship between morality, law, prayer, religion, and government control. Join us as we discuss how oppressive governments fear and sometimes suppress religious beliefs, drawing historical references from figures like Mao, Stalin, and Karl Marx. We analyze different religious perspectives on moral issues like same-sex marriage, adultery, and stealing, comparing Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Judaism, and Hinduism.

Thank you, Patrick; I am a combat vet, too. Born in Pakistan, a Christian. Now a proud American like yourself. I have so much to share. I wish I could be part of your show.
I would Love to hear your story Sharpshooterish. 🙏
@@CPez Thanks - really appreciate your remarks. I am ready to go public.

Government is a religion in their own way. Telling you they are the only answer. Telling you what’s good and bad. Takes your money. They have devout followers who truly believe they are our savior and who blindly take whatever the Government gives them with full trust.
A government that fears religion is a government with a strong tyrannical impulse. Religion means a higher moral authority above the government and a government that fails to recognize that will tend to assert itself in that supreme position. But unless good and right transcend the state then the state cannot claim for itself what it declares to be good and right. It would have no objective authoritative "good" and "right" to legitimize the state declarations or any valid moral premises on which to base it's policies.
I think some libertarians call the deep state/uniparty/establishment the cathedral.
💯% correct satanism is definitely religious in their own darkness that's the broad pathway that leads to sheol
A false religion, but yes.
Religion matters, running into your RUclips has been a blessing to me PBD I’m a Christian from Nigeria. Keep up the good work & keep giving us good content we can watch,learn & apply to our daily lives. I see you as a role model & I don’t regret putting you on that pedestal
Same here. I love listening to what he has to say. May God continue to bless him and fill him with wisdom beyond comprehension.
I disagree religion is not love of god, it’s corrupted god, I’m not saying there is no good in religion. So I will give examples from religions other than yours as you will understand easier. Torah. Why would god ask us to make a burnt offering of a lamb? What’s a lamb? A lamb is a child or a lamb, both are his creations so this contradicts love god as god is all. Islam Mohamed and the Mohamed dans crushed the above people hiding in the Jews that were killing babies and putting the burnt offerings (holocaust =burnt offerings) in bread and wine destroying them, but the Koran teaches the opposite about Mohamed, lies that were constructed 100 years later by Umar and Rome. There are similarities with Christian religions if this was not the case why erase half the books? You won’t find god in religion, community yes but you don’t need religion for that.
I don't believe in Religion because religion is very biased. I do however believe in Faith, because only faith is true to the heart.
Without religion how would our government be able to control the masses?
Religion is a cancer and has led many people and whole kingdoms to ruin.
Innocent people have died because of religious beliefs.
I recently watched a documentary about the fall of the Soviet Union. Old churches closed for decades reopened and people flocked back into them but they did not know how to pray. Some volunteers had kept the traditions alive and taught their fellows how to pray. It was heartbreaking to watch.
And way more people never went back to religion, because they realised they have a moral and fulfilling life without it. And some of those soviet nations are the most Atheistic countries now.
Soviet Communism is an against religion because they realise a lot of it was just a mechanism used by kings ,Tzars and oligarch to keep them oppressed. The same way plantation owners in the south did. If someone had used the bible and god to oppress and enslave you wouldn’t really come out of it trying to be Christian.
Not saying religion is wrong but am just saying that religious people should understand individual can abuse that faith to do terrible things aswell.
@@Christian-uj1mqMate, religion wasnt used by the Tsars to control the masses. The peasants were serfs and were controlled by the local governor. There was no point in trying to control them in some sorts of ways, when they already were literarly enslaved. In fact, Christianity was and is associated with rise of democratic ideals in households across Europe, so if anything, it undermined the Tsars.
Also, plantation owners gave black slaves heavily altered Bibles for obvious reasons.
Also, none of those former Soviet countries are mostly atheist. The majority of them have extremeley minor levels of atheism. These nations are either Christian or Muslim. Not even close to quarter atheist population.
Also, everyone, religious or not, knows that individuals can lie and distort the faith to further their own ends. Take it from me, the people who hate islamic extremists most are Muslims.
Now, I ask that you please explain to me how the bible was used to control the masses as you claim.
The funny thing is that those in power tends to have the lowest morality of all while giving grand lessons about it to the People!
Touche!
In the USA, they are the most moral because money is morality in America.
That's because their father is the father of All lies satan
@timothybogle1461 money & morality do not always go together. Sometimes they do, but sadly more times than not, money Definitely does NOT mean morality.
And in what country is power most concentrated in the world? The USA. And what country has the lowest morality?
Grew up Christian, although I am not currently practicing. I definitely give credit to the church for being part of the foundation of my morality.
Being a Christian is believing the gospel. That’s it.
Give me an example that you would not have without the religion.
Im not religious, didnt grow up religious and id pit my moral spectrum against religion every day of the week and know mines better.
Same, but I expanded upon it with utilitarianism. Religion is often too black and white. However, many of its core principles are worth taking into consideration.
Christian isn't something that is practiced.

Bulgaria is a normal country what… I’ve been to Sofia on holiday and there’s all sort of different races living there, literally one of the biggest attractions is the massive Muslim mosque in the centre which I assume is used by Turks .

@@IhaveBigFeetyes Muslims oppressed Bulgarians and enslaved them for centuries like other Balkan-European folks. So it’s not surprising they built mosques there, after all they colonised them for a long time

Bravo Pat. This is so well done.
This show has been shedding light on a lot of interesting topics lately. Its more on the conservative side, but lets face it, its the right side.
well Right as in its on the right side
not so much that its ya know Right.
given conservative policies and ideas have been shown to cause more harm and suffering then their left wing coutnerparts.
When majority of the developed and more successful world institutes more Left wing policies, Conservative ideas have caused damage to the economy through tax cuts for the rich, mass deregulation, and then theres the issue of the hate and suppression of peoples views.
hard to say youre on the "Right Side"
It’s not conservative it’s moral, logical and sane thought unfortunately the left has become morally, logically and insane.
Looks like 2 people have one way tickets straight to hell. Fuck em.
Amen.🙏🏼
That’s the problem with humanity, two sides always bickering which side is correct, which is why there’s always war, had something as big as Jesus 2000 years ago, yet that still didn’t stop humanity fighting, why? Because people are dumb 😅 it’s not hard to be kind and mind your own business, if someone isn’t killing, raping, stealing stay in your lane simple, but people gone hate because your living differently to how they are 🙄🤦🏽♀️
This is such an important message and so on the money. Thank you Patrick.

Thank you Mr. Bet David. What a way to kick of the year 📈
Our Founding Fathers embraced religion. Saw it necessary for a moral, loving, and successful nation. Whether they were just Deists, they KNEW that religion (especially Christianity) was an important part of the United States of America.
They were sooo religious and moral yet they thought owning humans was good ??
That is why they made sure the US was a secular state keeping religion and the state seperated after seeing the total madness of Protestants VS Catholics during the 30 years of war in Europe that in time led to secularism.The bible and Koran are just political ideologies disguised as religious books. They have inspired more mass genocides,slavery and destruction of indigenous cultures across the world ...
@menacemini4894 awwwe you wanna sign up for victimhood...and you go on yelp and write your complaint.
@@user-xi8jh8xo4b 😂😂 damn You PBD bots don’t play .. I hope you are bots and not comment stalkers 😂😂😂😂
@@menacemini4894 Well if owning human beings is not good then 'good' must be objectively real not merely a subjective construct. An advancement in moral judgements is possible only if there really is an uncreated, self-existent Moral Law that enables moral judgements of good and evil to be correct. Otherwise to say owning slaves is contrary to what is good is merely to say something about one's own private, subjective feelings that have no relevance beyond the self. It's quite possible religious people thought it okay to own slaves but but the condemnation of slavery is valid only if the condemnation is ultimately Supremely Good and Supremely Right.
Morality means you have a standard of beliefs, so you’re mindful and aware of yourself , as well as your environment. You can’t be controlled if you believe in something bigger than yourself with humility
Tell the Branch Davidians that
I find that to not be fully accurate. I spent 20 years in Christianity. I recently stopped believing in any written god. If anything, religion with Abrahamic gods are very controlling.
@ShiniGuraiJoker I've been Christian all my life.
There is nothing controlling about Christianity. Love is the law that should drive you, anything else is what controls you.
@josemadrigal2293 I used to think that, but I kist can't ignore any of the glaring issues within the bible or accept the, "God is God, so he can do X as his right."
There is ample amounts of writings within the bible that go against that concept.
@ShiniGuraiJoker If you understand the Bible, nothing is against love, which I find that to be "the consept"
Loved this PBD. It is a familiar subject matter for me, however, you analyzed it from a different perspective. What is the product of a society with faith and without. Also, it was chilling to see how many dictators wanted to eliminate Christianity. Thought provoking. Thank you.
You are just a fool, I don’t know if you recently have being fooled or you are just like that, but regardless you are a fool.
“The one who states his case first seems right,

Morality is what brought me to Christ. Waking up to the fact that everyone around me and the world operates as if truth and morality are subjective drove me straight to Christ. I always knew morality and truth were objective, I just didn't know it was a person!
Morality comes from the holy spirit inside you
What about for people who do not have it? Where will morality come from for them?
@@adaml7349 most folks don't have morality.
Morality has nothing to do with the potential of the Holy Spirit inside you. I know plenty of people who are not religious in the least, who are considerably more moral than some of the most religious people I’ve met. It’s instilled in you over your life, or it’s not.
silly and foolish lie
@@DJJ81 holy spirit doesn’t have to make someone outwardly religious,
Simply fantastic! This is a gift to me for my heart and mind have burned with this exact topic.
Great video! Keep it up, PBD!
Governments hate competition on telling you how to live your life
My only gripe with Patrick is he seems to believe that every societal institution would be better of being run like a corporation with a corporate structure. Some things are not negotiable no matter how many differing opinions arise in the board room. Evil cannot be fought by simply voting or changing corporate policy.
Communism is the "universal" church...that's just how it is, STUDY the script you'll "see."
if we lived in a world where everythign was corperate run and owned, then wed be nothing but slaves to those with wealth. and wed have no power to stop or push back.
Its called Anarcho Capitalism and its the worst idea in the world that will lead to so much issues for society then it claims to solve.
And thats why business men dont belong in the white house. It will always be about the bottom line and not the good of the people via the individuals well being not about value you can extract from them.
I am pro free market,not pro corporate capitalism which sadly many Repubs seem to conflate the two.
Sounds to me like you could listen more, and I mean really listen. Maybe he talks too fast for you to keep up? Because I don’t hear him talking like that at all.

Thank you Patrick - my favorite quip: tolerance is accepting the unacceptable - there is no morality with tolerance.
Because it challenges its monopoly on power.
Does it? Countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Afghanistan would strongly disagree. It's easier to control people when you tell them their oppression is ordained by allah or whatever deity they believe in.
@@ndimuafrica Muslim religion worships distant impersonal cosmic force, which does not compete with governmental monopoly on power. The religion governments fear is the Christianity, because it frees man from blind dependency on government and also limits its ability to abuse citizens. The reality is that modern western governments live on unlimited taxation and need unrestricted power to use these money to rule every minute detail of our lives, which is fundamentally opposed to the Christian idea!

Hi PBD, the issue of sex change is addressed in the Bible in Deuteronomy 22:5 "A woman shall not wear men's clothing, neither shall a man put on women's clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh your God". I really like your podcasts but don't forget to read the Word ! God Bless you.
Most modern governments gained their power by separating the state and church. That's why most secular governments don't like religion to be too big in their societies. Not saying a government ran by priests is better. There gotta be a balance somewhere.
I don't think one religion should be the ruler of all I don't a theocracy
Separating church and state is the balance. What balance do you think is more balanced then that?
@@henrytep8884 it was the balancing act back in the 18th century. Nowadays radical atheistic elites has taken over most institutions in secular countries. A rebalance is needed.
@@henrytep8884That church and government also dont fight

Excelent topic. You unpacked it very well. I respect your logical thread of thought.
Excellent segment PBD!! GB you for articulating so well this Topic!!!
You are spot on Patrick.
Very good video. Explains everything going on now.
The new covenant with God is for the law to be written in our hearts, so that's where morality begins. Then teaching yourself and family about your faith, its history and impact, then practicing it. We all tend to ebb and flow, and when we pay attention, we'll find it is better when we're actively connecting with God through prayer, good works and lifting each other up. Like a lot of what you do, Patrick. You're a really good role model.
Thanks for such content sir!
God bless you!
Simple. Governments fear religion because when one has a higher power, governments power becomes secondary.
Ask yourself this; the government says (Do horrible things against your true religious beliefs) or be killed, what do you do?
I'll obey my God and die for my beliefs. This is the power they wish they had.
Governments fear religion? How? The same black robe that a protestant preacher wears, you wear when you graduate high school etc. The same black robe that a judge wears in court. The same Bible they swear on. The government uses religion to its advantage.
Governments that fear religion are insecure fearing that citizens recognize an authority above the government that enables the citizens to hold their government to account. If there is no moral authority above the government then the state can act as the 'supreme authority' with no higher authority to appeal to to rightly judge the state - no means to condem it or be morally critical but equally no means to rightly praise it
Then it becomes necessary to form proper, enlightened religion. One that liberate the people completely. Not degrade into older, archaic (and already well understood means on how to manipulate and control) religious ideologies.
@@Windrake101 go for it, all your need is a Messiah and several billion followers.
Governments that fear religion most are those with the strongest impulses for tyranny - those that fear their citizens acknowledging a Supreme authority above the state by which the state can be rightly judged negatively but then neither could it be rightly judged in any way laudable.
Great job Patrick. Reminded me that I have to stay strong and pray togethor with my family everyday. God bless you.

Nope it’s an incoherent mess. Just pushing religious beliefs at the end of the day. No matter where you think morality comes from, end of the day be happy you live in a society that tries to keep that away from the people that governs over you.
He just rambles😂😂most of it is nonsense
Always kind of felt that religion was the unacknowledged 4th branch of government. Due to the fact that it's about disciplines and belief in forces greater than one's own self.
😂😂 tf you talking about? In every western nation religion is excluded from government because it’s can create a group of individuals who can use government to oppress those that don’t share the same, when all in a society should be free to think of their own individual ideas. Calling religion the 4th branch is basically shitting on the US constitution.

I'd say I'm agnostic. But I want to raise my children in a church. I think it's good for morality, community, and having the holidays together as a family. The fall of religion in the West is part of the major reason why we are declining.

One of the best discussions of morality I've seen is between Jordan Peterson and Dr John Lennox. Humans in isolation cannot set a benchmark for morality because of our capricious natures and a tendency to towards egocentrism . The Morality God gives us is absolute and unchanging. Society cannot rely on secular humanism to uphold ideas of morality. "There is a a way that seems right to man but in the end leads to destruction"
The most important point of religion is “to love your neighbor, AS you love yourself”. And that includes the acceptance of religious diversity. I love America because of that, and I love the work Valuetainment is doing to preserve respectful diversity.!! ❤
May America wake up and turn around from the possibility of communism .
PBD this was on point! This was more of a message that God put in your heart to say what no one is addressing!
“Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
If you want political power, there is a way…
Morality comes from one's inner compass. Truly listening what is feels right and wrong. In my opinion one cannot be moral all the time because of society and the mechanism of survival.
The Mexican cartels are pretty moral. They are only trying to survive
Been following your content for a while now. Top bloke, you make a lot of sense.
Thank you, pat!
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion" couldn't get more clear than that!
That was put in so the government couldn't force people into having only one church like the church of England. According to who was King or Queen at the time and the religion was what the Ruler Believed . They also didn't believe that the Government had a right to take God out of the schools and replace him with evolution, sadism, and all of the other religions ( but they did believe that everyone had a right to worship anyway they want to). That is what our country was built on. But the government did it anyway by interpreting it the way they wanted it to be not how the Founding Fathers meant it. Don't waste your insults on me. I have been insulted by some of the best Atheists there is. So read the Constitution the way that our Founding Fathers meant it and stop letting the Satanic rules of this country control your mind. God gave you a mind. Use it. Don't just believe it because someone said so. God said to test everything. He didn't say believe everything that you hear. He wants everyone to know the truth.
@lindaholland1083 You are right in the first part, and wrong in the rest of your statement.... The constitution is technically a secular document. The only time god is mentioned is to remind us that god is excluded. Its very clear. No where in the constitution god is given any type of power. The only thing that does is protect religious followers. NOT cristians only! Every religion is welcome to come and practice. No religion is allow to influence schools in anyway shape or form. Schools are govertment funded. Therefore, under your interpretation that god should be in school is incorrect.
Placing god in school is against the constitution 100%. I'm pretty sure you would have a problem if the country becomes majority Muslims, and they decide to implement their religious culture into our schools.

Morality comes from a lot of things. Genetics, your upbringing, where you grew up, things that happened to you, if you were shown love, who your friends were, experiences, influences, your own opinion after you try and figure out the world, your health, what you were eating ect.. Some people are born a certain way, they never like pizza no matter what. Some people have the perfect upbringing but become serial killers. They just like the thrill of killing and love torturing people. Morality has to do with a lot of things but when it comes down to it, it's mainly something you're born with. It's basically common sense and empathy. Natural law. Some people no matter how good they have it just don't give af.

@@DemocratsRDemons We have similarities but we're still different. Like I said earlier.. It's both the environment and genetics. Real gay people are born gay. Heterosexuals are born heterosexuals. Some people are born with more testosterone, some people have different taste buds ect.. It's mainly the levels of different things in you that makes you who you are.
Right and wrong are the clues to the meaning of the universe. If God doesn't exist, then morality doesn't exist. There is nothing else that connects us.
What about all tue evil things that were done for religion?
@@DrewbattleTheGreat evil people will manipulate every tool in the world to commit their horror.
There have been millions of horrific rapes throughout history...it doesn't make sex with my wife less beautiful.
@@DrewbattleTheGreat how do you know it's evil?
@@csurams84 cuz we make our own judgements. I can judge what is evil by myself without a religion telling me. Humans are smart rational beings who can come up with our own sense of right and wrong.
@@DrewbattleTheGreat humans are foolish and irrational. This is where your opinion falls apart.
Simply look at the criminals out there, or the 2 digit IQ crew that makes up half the population.
I don't know who ever came up with this idea that humans are somehow intelligent creates.
Amazing analysis PBD!!! You are dead on on all of these points!
This is amazing, everyone should watch this.
You don't have to believe in a "God" to be disciplined.
My prayers go out to all the followers of Bootyism. Jesus loves you.
Rev.14:7 "He was saying in a loud voice: “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of judgment by him has arrived, so worship the One who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and the springs of water.”
Beautifully said. Thank you. Well pointed but also well respected. Philosophy is knowledge and knowledge is tolerance.
Morality comes from the right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
You forgot to add God
Don't need to believe in God to be a good person. In fact a lot of people believe in god to justify being a bad person.
@@kevinthekrazy1320Yeah, and a lot of people who believe in the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness justify killing more than a million people by using this right.
Morality definitely doesn’t come from religion. A lot of tue worst atrocities were committed using religion as a justification
Really ??
And because of that religion is the problem ??
The UK and the US are GodLess societies so why are the prisons FULL while Alcohol Gambling and Porn is all legal and destroying families and communities !!
Can you explain that ??
So where does morality come from If not religion, maybe our elected leaders (one word ISRAEL ) !
Do you know which countries have the lowest crime rates in the world. ??
@@Mohammed-dy6xb our sense of community. Humans are rational people. We make decisions that either hurt the community or help the community. That’s where right and wrong come from.
Well actually it does come from religion the oldest being the vedas that described the occupational and moral duties of people in every social class. The problem is abrahamic faiths are weaponized religions, it conceived to dismantle the Roman empire from within and create a new axis of power that persists even today.
@@DrewbattleTheGreatno it doesn't humanity falls short on the glory of God.your confusing religion with God. religion can be corrupted.God cannot morality comes from God.humanity is incapable of having morality just look at history and the State of this corrupted world.
love this video
great segment Pat
Morality mainly comes from the family, which is the main core of society. The problem is, when that family has no fundamental values and principles, it does not contribute anything to society, only "free minds- progressivism " type of sh! T...
So where does the family come from who created it.
@@roseroselyne9045 I'm a Christian and I believe in God if that's what you want to know. If you want me to put it in clear words, atheist and families that grow without believing in God tend to contribute very little to society in terms of values and principles...
As a guy who practices santeria, you can't trust anyone but the saints. for they know best and know what dangers lies ahead. Sure, roosters get expensive. But it beats being exploited by the IRS for nothing.
Find Jesus Christ, my friend!
@nabil706 i already have a altar to jesus. He approves Santería
@@jessecuster42 „You shall have no other God‘s besides me“🤔
@@nabil706 Ah, I am pagan. I can worship anyone I want.
Thank you, Mr. David.
In the words of Abraham Lincoln when questioned on religion he replied (I think) "When I do good, I feel good but when I do bad, I feel bad". Morality is where the discernment between the two comes from.
Al hamdulillah for Islam, it makes sense 😊
If you believe Islam makes sense, you don't know Islam.
Flying horses don't make sense. Never will.
Governments fear religion be ause it gives people hope and faith. Governments want to take that away.
Great Video
Great podcast Patrick! Excellent 👍
Religion is just another facet of control. The word itself means "to bind" ...takes away your spirituality and gives you rules. Sounds like government to me.
You're going to bind yourself to something. Choose your master wisely.
You can't be spiritual if you don't believe in God you fool.if you don't believe in moral laws from God then you serve lawlessness and you are worshipping Satan foo.
Thank you brother
