This lecture discusses key ideas from the Utilitarian philosopher, Jeremy Bentham's work, Offenses Against Oneself, a posthumously published part of his Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation. Here we examine some of the problems that arise out of punishing same-sex relationships using what Bentham calls the "political sanction", i.e. legislation and enforcement.. One of these, which Bentham thinks is a rather weak argument, is that this tends to make more people aware of the perceived offense and give them the idea that it must be pleasurable, since it is being punished. He also raises the likelihood of false or malicious prosecutions, which require only that someone make claims to have seen two men together, and views this as a significant problem. A third problem is that this also makes men liable to extortion or blackmail.

Scripture focus: 1 Pet 2:11-17Teaching by Elijah Dally
Q: Why does leadership development in Japan feel so slow? A: Because talent is often held hostage to time. Age, longevity and seniority can outweigh capability, so people wait rather than accelerate their readiness. OJT is the default pathway, but it only works when the boss can teach, communicate and coach. When that capability is missing, development becomes inconsistent and slow. Mini-summary: If time and seniority do the deciding, leadership growth stays glacial. Q: Why do some Japanese high potentials decline promotions? A: Many say, "I don't feel I'm ready yet." Sometimes that's humility. Sometimes it's fear of failure, shaped by a workplace norm where mistakes carry a high social cost. The problem is that demographics are tightening. As retirements increase and the youth population declines, companies need more people willing to step up sooner. Mini-summary: The "not ready" mindset collides with the reality of retirements and shrinking talent pipelines. Q: What's undermining accountability for career growth? A: In many firms, the Personal Development Plan becomes a perfunctory HR process rather than a tool for self-reflection and direction. Without role models who actively plan their careers, people don't learn how to influence their progression. Stretch roles get avoided because the risk of failure feels too high, and training is not treated as leverage for bigger accountability. Mini-summary: When PDPs are paperwork and stretch work feels dangerous, accountability stays passive. Q: How do patrons shape promotion—and what's the risk? A: Patronage is a time-tested path: attach yourself to a powerful person, offer total loyalty, and your career can rise with theirs. The trade-off is control. Your timing is tied to the patron's timing, not your readiness or choices. That can keep people focused on allegiance instead of capability-building. Mini-summary: Patronage can lift careers, but it shifts accountability away from the individual's development. Q: What can leaders learn from gaishikei promotion culture without copying it blindly? A: Gaishikei companies often reward self-promotion, seizing training opportunities, and taking bigger assignments to prove capability. You don't need to import noisy behaviours. You do need to make development visible and active: encourage people to pursue learning, accept stretch work, and demonstrate readiness through action. Mini-summary: Keep the focus on deliberate development and stretch, not on style. Q: How does coaching increase accountability without creating fear? A: Coaching broadens thinking and challenges people to take calculated risks. It supports ownership rather than compliance. But it requires an internal culture where failure is treated as learning, not as a career killer. When someone tries something for the first time, they will be imperfect. The organisation must honour the implicit compact that experimentation is allowed. Mini-summary: Coaching works best when learning is protected and early imperfection is normalised. Q: What destroys accountability and creativity in the middle layer? A: Middle managers raised in a "no failure allowed" environment can verbally whack subordinates for mistakes made during experimentation. That reaction cancels creativity quickly and teaches people to play safe. It doesn't move the company forward, and it weakens leadership bench strength over time. Mini-summary: Punishing experimental mistakes trains people to avoid ownership. Q: How should leaders set up training so it actually sticks? A: The lead-up matters. If the message is, "You have training in two weeks; HR has the details," people can misread it as punishment or even a signal they're being pushed out. Some become the hostile "hostage" participant who resists regardless of quality. Instead, explain the why: they were selected because of excellent work and the company is investing in their future. Then have a coaching conversation about where they can improve and what outcomes they want from the programme. Mini-summary: Give the why, set outcomes, and motivation rises. Q: What are the practical action steps to build leadership bench strength? A: Create an environment that tolerates failure as part of the creative process. Coach high potentials to change their mindset about achieving their full potential. Don't just provide training—provide the why of the training for them. Mini-summary: Culture, coaching, training and communication work as a single system.

Specifically, Alex walks us through the history that gave American Samoans passports, social security numbers, but no right to vote. From there, Alex tells the story of a small American Samoan community that is facing decades in prison for voting when everyone thought they had the right to.

Eye rolls. Heavy sighs. That sharp, snarky tone that flips your nervous system in half a second. If your teen's “nasty attitude” instantly makes you think disrespect, defiance, or this needs to stop now, this episode will change how you see everything. In Episode #269 of Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam, I kick off a brand-new series unpacking teen behaviors parents punish — even though they're often signs of healthy development. And we're starting with the one that triggers parents the fastest: attitude. Here's the uncomfortable truth most parents were never told: What feels like disrespect in the moment is often your teen's nervous system in overload, paired with a brain that's wired for emotion but still learning regulation. When we shut it down with consequences or lectures, we don't teach respect — we teach defense. And that's where the power struggles, shutdowns, and distance begin. In this episode, I don't just explain why this happens, I walk you through the critical choice every parent faces in those heated moments… and how one response builds walls while the other builds trust. I also introduce the response framework I teach parents inside my COLLABORATE Method™ Parenting Program — the approach that helps you hold boundaries without escalating, shutting down, or saying something you regret five minutes later. If you've ever wondered: Why does my teen get snarky over the smallest things? Am I accidentally making the attitude worse? How do I stop the tone without starting a war? This episode is your wake-up call. Because tonight's “attitude” isn't just about tonight. It's shaping how safe your teen feels communicating with you tomorrow. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why teen “attitude” often usually has nothing to do with disrespect — and everything to do with brain development The hidden reason even well-intended questions can trigger snark and shutdown The parenting response that escalates attitude (most parents default to it without realizing) The moment-by-moment choice that determines whether your teen opens up… or closes off WHY THIS MATTERS MORE THAN YOU THINK Every time your teen gets mouthy, snappy, or sarcastic, one of two things happens. You either: reinforce fear, control, and emotional shutdown or teach regulation, communication, and real respect Most parents were taught the first path. In this episode, I show you the second and explain why it works even when your teen is not at their best.

Why do kids raised in the same home react so differently to the exact same situation? In this episode, I'm joined by Alyssa Campbell, author, educator, and founder of Seed & Sew, to unpack what's really happening beneath our kids' behaviors—and why understanding their nervous systems changes everything about how we parent. Alyssa returns to the show to talk about her new book Big Kids, Bigger Feelings, and we go deep into the overlooked developmental stage of kids ages 5–12. We discuss why "shouldn't they know better?" is the wrong question, how regulation and access to skills are two different things, and why each child's unique sensory profile determines how they experience stress, connection, discipline, and learning. This conversation will give you clarity, compassion, and practical tools to parent each child for who they actually are—not who you expect them to be. Timeline Summary [0:00] Why kids raised by the same parents can behave so differently [2:33] Introducing Alyssa Campbell and her work in emotional intelligence [3:27] Alyssa's first book Tiny Humans, Big Emotions and its success [3:49] Celebrating Alyssa hitting the New York Times bestseller list [4:11] Introducing the new book Big Kids, Bigger Feelings [5:00] Why ages 5–12 are a massively overlooked developmental stage [6:03] Central nervous systems and why kids respond differently to the same stimulus [7:36] "Knowing better" vs. having access to skills in the moment [9:15] Dysregulation in adults—and why kids struggle even more [14:24] Why kids under 25 don't have fully developed prefrontal cortexes [16:03] How screens and overstimulation dysregulate kids [18:12] Why nervous system awareness builds empathy instead of frustration [22:45] The nine sensory systems every parent should understand [24:01] Vestibular, proprioceptive, and interoceptive senses explained [26:17] Sensory sensitivity vs. sensory seeking [28:12] Introducing the Seed Quiz as "GPS for your kid's brain" [29:05] How the Seed Quiz works for kids, parents, and families [31:10] Real-life school example of regulation transforming behavior [33:09] Why behavior improves when regulation improves [35:25] Trauma, environment, and how nervous systems evolve [41:03] Why understanding nervous systems transforms marriages too [42:06] Parenting two kids with opposite sensory needs [44:48] Why the same parenting response can calm one child and escalate another [45:30] Tapping out to your partner when regulation styles differ [47:01] Where to find Alyssa, her books, and Seed & Sew resources Five Key Takeaways: Every child has a unique nervous system, which determines how they experience stress, connection, and learning. Knowing what to do and being able to do it in the moment are not the same thing, especially when kids are dysregulated. Behavior improves when regulation improves, not when punishment increases. One-size-fits-all parenting often backfires because kids need different inputs to calm and connect. Understanding nervous systems builds empathy, patience, and more effective parenting strategies.

Don breaks down the outrageous move by Pete Hegseth to censure Mark Kelly and threaten cuts to his retirement pay, all over a video Kelly made with other lawmakers reminding members of the military that they are not required to obey unlawful orders. Let's be clear about what's happening here. Hegseth isn't enforcing discipline, he's punishing a senator for telling the military to follow the law. This is dangerous, unprecedented, and part of a broader pattern by the administration to clamp down on dissent and intimidate anyone who challenges its authority. A stark look at power, retaliation, and why protecting lawful speech matters more than ever. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
How bad has freight fraud really gotten, and what's it costing the carriers who are doing things the right way? Today, we've got Pamela Polyak from Polyak Trucking back to the show to explain how fraud in trucking is escalating fast and why legitimate carriers are being forced to spend more time proving they're real than actually moving freight! She talks about the outdated carrier vetting systems, rising insurance costs, stolen loads, and the growing compliance burden crushing small trucking companies, especially one-to-ten truck operations. We get into real solutions, including government-backed tax credits for compliant carriers, modernized federal databases, real-time carrier verification, stronger enforcement with meaningful penalties, and why rewarding good actors matters just as much as punishing bad ones. If you care about freight fraud prevention, carrier compliance, trucking industry reform, and protecting legitimate carriers from being priced out by criminals, this is a straight-shooting conversation you don't want to miss!

Two writers from the New York Times say the liberal values that have flooded our culture with online gambling, pornography, and cannabis have backfired, but secular progressives, like Ezra Klein, admit that they don't have a framework for explaining why. Phil, Skye, and Kaitlyn discuss the benefits and limitations of liberalism as a political and social philosophy, and why those on the left are increasingly aware of their need for religion. Matthew Soerens from World Relief is back to discuss why the Trump administration's immigration policies are so different in his second term, how the President's ever-changing rhetoric is causing chaos, and why America is accepting the collective punishment of immigrants.

To understand the oppressive nature of the word slut and the social concept behind it, we have to understand how its meaning evolved.Slut began like many English words: neutral, then pejorated into a slur for girls and women. Linguist Amanda Montell, in Wordslut, traces how gender-neutral or positive words shift into insults for women. Bitch once referred to genitals or animals before narrowing to “bossy woman.” Hauswif (female head of household) became housewife and then hussy. Meanwhile, terms for men — sir, mister — stayed honorable, while madam and mistress became sexualized.Middle English slutte meant a slovenly person of any gender. By the 1700s it signified a messy girl or wife; by the 1900s it became sexual. Use of slut soared in the 1970s, paralleling the rise of mass-market porn. The pattern is clear: men historically controlled communication — pulpits, presses, publishing, and porn — shaping language to reflect patriarchal norms.Today's meaning centers the accuser: an allegedly immoral woman who has “too much” sex or simply looks sexual. It frames sexual freedom as a lack of self-respect and dehumanizes girls and women, especially women with intersecting marginalized identities. Meanwhile, patriarchal cultures reward male promiscuity while condemning women's.Why? Because controlling women's sexuality once meant controlling reproduction — and therefore property and power. As societies shifted to agriculture, paternity certainty upheld male dominance. Punishing “promiscuous” women maintained that control.So why does this persist today? Sociolinguistics shows that language reflects and reinforces power. Montell highlights sexist defaults across English: female doctor, male nurse, manslut versus slut. The unmarked norm is male; women are the deviation.Feminist philosopher Marilyn Frye defines oppression through double binds: whatever women choose, they lose. Dress attractively and risk slut-shaming; dress modestly and risk dismissal. Iris Marion Young expands this into the “five faces of oppression”: exploitation, marginalization, powerlessness, cultural imperialism, and violence.The slut stereotype intersects with all five. Violence appears in misogynist mass murders by Elliot Rodger, Chris Harper-Mercer, and others who blamed women's sexual autonomy. Powerlessness shows up in everyday self-censorship around clothing, behavior, and ambition. Online, weak legal protections for revenge porn and deepfakes disproportionately harm girls and women, sometimes forcing them to uproot their lives.Cultural imperialism — or hegemonic “mind colonization” — surfaces when people internalize the attitudes that oppress them. As Allan Johnson argues, patriarchy is a system we all absorb: expectations about sexual availability, male entitlement, and female self-doubt seep into everyone raised within it.So what do we do? One approach is reclamation. SlutWalks, sparked after a Toronto officer said women should “avoid dressing like sluts,” challenge rape culture and victim blaming. Activist Amber Rose argues reclaiming slut helps dismantle it. And frankly, it's fun to say — a plosive, punchy word. Montell notes slurs fade only when the beliefs behind them fade.Ways to address this issue:• Get cishet men to call themselves sluts — not mansluts — and to do it vulnerably, without demeaning partners.• Reintroduce slutte as a gender-neutral term, like heaux for ho/whore.• Teach kids media literacy about porn and bodily autonomy. When teens use gendered insults, ask what they really mean; encourage ungendered ones like “butthole” or naming specific behaviors.

Government Against GodI used to be proud I can honestly say.To live in this great land, the U.S. of A.When I went through divorce court those feelings changed.From that time on life will never be the same.God said for adultery that we must all pay, Yet government says for women it's okay.They ignore God's word, and do just the other, Punishing dads and kids for sins of the mother.Divorce for them is all the money that they make, Indifferent to fathers and children they forsake.Women today are aware of reality.Men and kids pay for their infidelity.Most crimes these days are from kids of fatherless homes.Yet still today the injustices go on; They pay back tenfold the money that they make.For crimes committed by children they forsake.For pain and sorrow that we suffer these days, We can thank our governments' one-sided ways.When asked, “Whom do I give my loyalty to?”I'll choose God over government.

Send us a textEver been handed “biblical” advice that felt like a rebuke wrapped in a compliment? We dive into Job 5 and Eliphaz's counsel to uncover how true statements about God can land as false comfort when applied without wisdom. We talk about God's unsearchable works, rain on the earth, and the lifting of the lowly—and why those beautiful truths don't grant us permission to diagnose a friend's pain as punishment.As we move through the text, we name the danger of transactional theology: the reflex to read suffering as a simple cause-and-effect verdict. Several voices share how that mindset shows up today—suggesting blessings prove righteousness and loss proves guilt—and why it distorts God's sovereignty and pastoral care. We highlight a better way shaped by the Psalms and by Job's own honesty: faith that doesn't silence questions. God welcomes lament. Confession becomes relational, not performative. If Christ carried our sins, daily repentance isn't re-earning mercy but living in the truth of it.We also explore the craftiness in Eliphaz's tone—praise to God used to conceal a rebuke—and offer practical guidance for spiritual conversations under pressure. Listen deeply before labeling. Refuse quick moral math. Match doctrine to context like tools to tasks. Offer presence instead of suspicion. Suffering people don't need a courtroom; they need companions who can hold paradox and wait with them for light. By the end, you'll have a sharper lens for reading Job, and a kinder posture for your next hard conversation.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who's navigating a hard season, and leave a review to help more listeners find thoughtful, scripture-rich conversations.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!
Send us a textSharp words can sound holy and still cut the wrong way. We dive into Job 5 and the rhetoric of Eliphaz, tracing how a true principle—God humbling the proud—gets twisted into a personal indictment that piles pain on a grieving friend. From there, we draw a straight line to our own habits: debates that chase victory, counsel that confuses authority with love, and the subtle pride that wants to be seen as right more than helpful.Together we unpack how theology becomes a weapon when motive outruns mercy. We talk about the difference between teaching truth and trying to force belief, why ignoring bait can be a discipline of peace, and how unity suffers when every disagreement becomes a stage. You'll hear candid stories of blind zeal, moments when Scripture was quoted accurately but applied recklessly, and what it took to turn from winning arguments to serving hearts. Along the way, we revisit Paul's warning about worldly wisdom and the trap of craftiness, showing how timeless words can be misused when aimed at the wounded.We also reframe suffering through a pastoral lens. Not every trial exposes secret sin; often, affliction refines dependence on God. One reliable sign of grace is simple and human: we cry out. That cry for help, correction, and comfort is not condemnation—it's formation. As we meditate on Job's restraint and Jesus' silence under accusation, we ask what it means to carry truth with tenderness, to correct without crushing, and to let love govern tone, timing, and target. If you're weary of hot takes and hungry for wisdom that heals, this conversation offers a steadier way to speak, listen, and live. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs gentler counsel, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway so we can keep the dialogue growing.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!
Send us a textWhat if the trial you're facing isn't the enemy derailing your life, but the Father reshaping your heart? We open a hard but liberating claim: for Christians, affliction sits under God's providence and moves us toward deeper dependence, not despair. That shift changes how we pray, how we wait, and how we talk about spiritual warfare.We walk through Scripture to ground this view. John 17 frames life as sent ones in a hostile world, kept and sanctified in truth. James points to the prophets and Job to highlight endurance and God's compassionate outcomes. Hebrews 12 delivers the core: discipline marks out sons and yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness. Along the way, Pilgrim's Progress offers a lived picture of endurance, contrasting shallow starts with steady souls who push through the Slough of Despond. And in Job, Eliphaz reminds us that true doctrine can be misapplied; providence is real, but it is not always immediate or visible.The heart of the conversation is chastening: not punishment, but love that guarantees growth. We challenge the habit of crediting the devil for disruptions God uses to sanctify us, and we explore why divine correction never fails its purpose. Jonah's course correction, Jesus' call to relinquish anxiety in Matthew 6, and Paul's reminder in Romans 2 that kindness leads to repentance all converge on one path—training that hurts for a moment and heals for a lifetime. Expect pruning. Expect fruit. Expect joy on the far side of obedience.If this reframes your current storm, lean into it with hope.

Send us a textEver wonder whether the pain you're facing is random—or purposeful? We dig into a hard truth wrapped in hope: God's correction isn't payback; it's formation. With Scripture as our anchor and lived stories as our proof, we explore how chastening marks true sonship, why it strengthens public witness, and how it inevitably conforms us to the image of Christ.We trace the thread from Galatians to Hebrews to Job, clarifying a frequent mix-up: believers receive discipline, the world receives punishment. That distinction reframes suffering with meaning. You'll hear how followers of Jesus learn to recognize the Father's hand—even if not right away—and why that recognition turns frustration into humility, and humility into growth. We lean on Hebrews 5 to consider how Jesus fully embodied obedience through suffering, then apply that to our own sanctification as we are disciplined out of disobedience and into holiness.The conversation stays practical and vivid. Think steel in a forge or aluminum under heat treat: pressure, heat, and quenching that make the metal stronger. Those images come alive in personal stories of being stopped by God's “whatever it takes” love—never vindictive, always precise. We sit with Job 5:18 as a lifeline: the God who wounds also heals, and his discipline is a means of grace that keeps us in the faith. Along the way, we call out the pitfalls of quick judgment, recall the harm done by Job's friends, and urge careful speech, slow assumptions, and real compassion inside the church.If you're navigating trials, wrestling with the difference between punishment and correction, or simply hungry for a sturdier hope, this conversation aims to steady your steps. Listen, reflect, and share with a friend who needs courage for the furnace.

In this episode, we welcome Professor Jonathan Hafetz for an insightful discussion on the complex legal challenges involved in prosecuting individuals accused of mass crimes. Our conversation traces the development of international justice mechanisms from the foundational Nuremberg trials through to contemporary approaches in the age of global terrorism.Professor Hafetz examines how nations have attempted to hold perpetrators accountable while maintaining commitment to fair trial principles - a tension that continues to define international criminal law. The discussion explores the significant impact of the U.S. War on Terrorism on legal frameworks and its disproportionate effects on Arab and Muslim communities.Throughout the episode, we consider how these legal precedents influence current justice systems and what lessons can be drawn from past successes and failures. This thoughtful analysis offers listeners a clearer understanding of the delicate balance between pursuing accountability for grave crimes and preserving fundamental rights protections, even for those accused of the most serious offenses.This episode provides valuable context for anyone interested in international law, human rights, and the ongoing evolution of justice mechanisms in response to atrocities and terrorism.Support the showSupport the Center for Security, Race and Rights by following us and making a donation: Donate: https://give.rutgersfoundation.org/csrr-support/20046.html Subscribe to our Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEbUfYcWGZapBNYvCObiCpp3qtxgH_jFy Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/rucsrr Follow us on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Threads: https://threads.com/rutgerscsrr Follow us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/rucsrr Follow us on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/rucsrr Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://csrr.rutgers.edu/newsroom/sign-up-for-newsletter/

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and Dr. Stewart Hilliard discuss: The debate between purely positive training and balanced training. How Kynology goes deeper than just basic dog training. Ways in which the scientific process in research can go wrong. The role of a canine trainer to teach their dog to handle stress. Stewart's two answers to the question "Why do you need aggression?" Key Takeaways: While there are about 25 research studies that create the canon of dog training, a lot of them are based on pure science or theory alone and do not actually understand the practicality of dog training. Research is often not replicated enough to know if the original model and data were structured and analyzed properly. Punishing behaviors into existence is not really a thing that happens in real life, human, ethical training. Good practitioners don't teach with adversives. They use aversives to facilitate generalization of behaviors that are established using positive reinforcement and generalization of those behaviors to different physiological and emotional states. "You and I, in February, are going to run a seminar under the aegis of kynology. It's an effort…to provide really good, solid, formal education to other kynologists - which means people who are really, really interested in dogs, dog behavior, and learning. Not in a casual way, but those who want to know everything they can." — Dr. Stewart Hilliard Episode References: Go to Kynology.org now and start an account to stay up to date on Kynology events, upcoming resources, and products!

It's one of those stories that makes you stop and ask — what the hell happened to justice? In Lonoke County, Arkansas, Aaron Spencer — a father who allegedly shot a known predator he found with his 14-year-old daughter — isn't being hailed as a hero. He's being prosecuted for second-degree murder. Meanwhile, the same system that failed to protect his child seems more determined to protect its own image. The man he shot, Michael Fosler, wasn't a mystery to law enforcement. His record included sexual indecency with a child and online predation charges. Yet somehow, he was still free — free enough to allegedly lure a teenage girl onto a dark rural road. Police say when Spencer found them together, he reacted the way any terrified father might. Now, that reaction could send him to prison. And here's where it gets even more surreal: Aaron Spencer is now running for sheriff — against the very department that arrested him. His campaign slogan: “Restoring Trust.” For many in Lonoke County, that message hits harder than any political ad. They see a broken system, a failed chain of protection, and a father who finally drew a line the system refused to. So why is this happening? Why does a man who defended his daughter face murder charges, while the institutions that failed her face none? Joining me is Defense Attorney and Former Prosecutor Bob Motta — host of Defense Diaries and BURIED: Inside the John Wayne Gacy Investigation — to unpack how a story of survival turned into a political and legal firestorm.
