There is a growing segment of our American society, this so-called new woke aspect, which seeks to redefine the meaning/definition of a man, a real man, a Biblical man.The definition of a man, by both Biblical and Societal definitions, was clear, not subject to debate or change. That man, created by the Great G-d Jehovah, the Great I Am, was created in His image and was to be like Him, ordained by God to be the ruler of the planet and to be head of all things. That man was biologically determined, and both sex and gender unchangeable. But, a man today, accordingly to the radical woke element of our society, can both decide and determine his sex/gender, and should he choose a different gender identity, he can do so, no matter any Biblical or biological determination.And, that changing definition is today a work-in-progress. A man today can now be gay, that is homosexual, bi-sexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ), or some different alternative with which the individual may identify.It is really a tragedy what is happening to God's first man, His creation. This new definition of man makes him not like HIM the Great Creator, but made in mans image and definition.But, let us review what the Bible says about a real man. He is called upon to be strong, not only in body, physically, but in mind, will, spirit, and soul. The real man is possessive of a God-made body, which is, as described by the Bible:THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.That physical body of a real man should be honored, respected, cared for, and kept in the best physical shape possible by that man, never forgetting that it is the housing of the spirit, The Holy Spirit of the Great Divine Triumvirate.That real man, like our Lord Jesus Christ, may enjoy the fruit of the grape, the wine which Jesus himself drank, if he so chooses, but should never, ever, be drunken. Drinking wine or alcohol to excess is the ruination of the temple of The Holy Spirit. No real man can function mentally or spiritually under the influence of drugs or alcohol. None.The real Biblical man respects his body and his sexuality, and will not be given to adultery, fornication, lascivious living, and always respects, protects, and honors marital intimacy. He is a man with strong fidelity and ultimate respect for:ONE WOMAN. ONE WIFE.The real man constantly strives to learn, educate himself, and in all things, asks for the wisdom for his life and decision making, which only God can give. The request for God given wisdom is constant, continuous, and totally sincere in all things, everything. God honors the sincere request of any real man for HIS wisdom.That real man is strong spiritually. Learn-ed in the Bible, and always learning. studying, sharing, witnessing, and teaching, always growing in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. That is the only way that man can be a real father and train up his children in the way they should go, the way of the Lord.That real Biblical man is a protector of the Christian faith, and to that extent, politically active. He renders unto Caesar the things which rightly belong to Caesar, but demands morality, truth, respect, and honesty in all things political. The real man is a watch dog, a watchman on the wall, making certain that Caesar functions in the way that Caesar should, so that the things of God Almighty are never interfered with.The real man discharges his duties as HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD. That ethical principle has become more unpopular today. Far too many men abandon their responsibilities and any substitute for a real father is never enough, inadequate, and most importantly, not Biblical.If the real man is privileged to have a real family, then that man, husband, father, friend, and teacher spends time, quality time, consistent regular and respectful time, with every member of that household lovingly together as one family unit but also, lovingly and respectfully individually with each member. Only by implementing both, together and individual, can the individuals of that family thrive and grow.The real man is truthful. That Biblical man does not lie. He is known for telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, transparency in all things. Any in the family, even the youngest, can sense hypocrisy, and can even more easily ascertain the lie of any kind. Nothing sabotages the credibility and integrity of a man/father than the lie, nothing.The Biblical man/father never fails to discipline when necessary. That discipline is not physical, but lovingly confrontational. That real man, and the real woman of the household, must be living examples of any rules and regulations which are established for the operation of the family and the household.The real man, and of course the real woman, must spend quiet time, time and prayer, meditation, and thoughtful evaluation and in the study of Scripture. And so much to every family member.The Bible, Old and New Testaments, has so much more to say about a man, a real man. It is difficult, if not impossible, to be a real man without that Biblical knowledge, definition, and encouragement of what a real man is. Today, the challenges of this world make it far too easy to compromise, surrender, and succumb to the definitions, pleasures, and lusts of the modern society. It is our prayer, our revival prayer, that the Biblical man, the man God and our Lord Jesus Christ intended, reemerge, become the shining light for society and for any family, and once again, both do and become the man/person which God intended. That man is always humble before the Lord, ready to admit wrong, apologize, to shed a tear, and to show love and respect to everyone. If a man, a Biblical man, lives and loves like the Bible intended, there is nothing in life any better, no greater force than that of a:REAL BIOLOGICAL AND BIBLICAL MAN.

Show notes:Are there people who inspire you, make you want to be better and do better?I have been fortunate to meet with amazing and inspirational people from all walks of life through my podcast The Elephant in the Room. Individuals who refuse to be defined by their circumstances or the challenges they encounter in life. Akashdeep Bansal, CEO of SaralX, and my guest for the 134th episode of the podcast is one such person. Diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa at a young age, Akash's path took an unexpected turn when a conversation with his master's supervisor prompted him to consider the challenges faced by visually impaired individuals in pursuing STEM education. This pivotal moment not only reshaped his academic trajectory but also inspired the creation of SaralX, a startup focused on enhancing digital accessibility for people with disabilities.In this episode we spoke about

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com    What do you love the most? A certain type of food? Your spouses hips or lips? Your job? The money you make? Your biceps? Your ministry? Your 1953 corvette? Your brand-new Mercedes? Your girlfriend? Alcohol? Drugs? Your phone?  Or maybe it is far worse than that? Maybe you are in love with…. Thats where we are going today!   What are you in love with… a lot of answers come to mind… but I believe they all stem from one basic foundation. We love to be approved by others. We love others approval. And we are willing to do just about anything to get it.    The approval of other people is so important to most because it's deeply rooted in fundamental human psychological and evolutionary needs. Here's a breakdown of the key reasons: 1. Evolutionary and Survival Instincts: Historical Necessity: For much of human history, belonging to a group or tribe was essential for survival. Being accepted meant access to resources, protection from threats, and the ability to find a mate and raise offspring. Rejection from the group could be a death sentence. This deep-seated fear of rejection and need for acceptance has been passed down through generations. Social Connection: Humans are inherently social creatures. Our brains are wired for connection, and social interaction plays a crucial role in our well-being. Approval from others reinforces our sense of belonging and validates our place within a community. 2. Psychological Needs: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: The need for belongingness and love, and then esteem, are fundamental human needs in Maslow's hierarchy, ranking above basic physiological and safety needs. Approval from others contributes directly to these levels, making us feel loved, accepted, and valued. Self-Esteem and Self-Worth: For many, external validation acts as a mirror, reflecting back a sense of their own worth. When we receive approval, compliments, or praise, it can boost our confidence and reaffirm our abilities. Conversely, a lack of approval or criticism can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. Fear of Rejection and Judgment: This is a powerful motivator. Many people seek approval to avoid the pain of being rejected, criticized, or judged. This fear can stem from childhood experiences where acceptance felt conditional. Dopamine Release: Receiving external validation, like likes on social media or compliments, can trigger the release of dopamine, a "feel-good" neurotransmitter in the brain. This creates a temporary sense of pleasure and satisfaction, which can lead to a desire to repeat behaviors that elicit this response. Social Comparison: We often compare ourselves to others to gauge our own performance, appearance, and social standing. Seeking approval can be a way to ensure we measure up favorably in these comparisons. 3. Childhood Experiences: Early Conditioning: Our early experiences, particularly with caregivers, heavily influence our need for approval. Children who receive consistent approval and validation tend to develop a stronger internal sense of self-worth. Those who experience neglect, criticism, or conditional acceptance may grow up with a persistent need for external validation. Learning Behavior: As children, we naturally look to our parents for recognition and validation when we accomplish something. This teaches us that external feedback is a way to understand if we've done "a good thing." 4. Societal and Cultural Factors: Social Norms: Society often has unspoken rules and expectations. Conforming to these norms can lead to increased social acceptance. Deviating from them can result in social exclusion. Social Media: The digital age has intensified the pursuit of approval. Platforms that revolve around "likes," "shares," and comments provide constant opportunities for external validation, which can become addictive and lead to an unhealthy reliance on others' opinions for self-worth.   Botton line is this - you seek peoples approval because you don't know you you have Gods approval.  Look one of my favorite memories is competing as a powerlifter and pulling 670 in Masters division one - it was a grind… drug free, no suit, just me and the iron - and when I was done I had Donnie Thompson who was at the judges table taking numbers call me over and tell me that it was a great lift. Donnie thompson is on the mount Rushmore of powerlifters. The first one ever to hit a 3000 pound total. When he says Great lift - it doens't really matter what anyone else thinks. He is the king of powerlifting. Well we serve another king who is the King of the world, the universe… and when we know we have his approval - nothing else matters.  Galatians 1:10 Obviously, I'm not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ's servant. OOOHhhhh this is sooo good. Did you catch it? You serve the one who's approval you seek. So whomever you are hoping to be approved by - you will do whatever it takes to show them you are their servant. The world loves suckers like you.  I live my life on one simple rule… If I know my relationship with God is good… then I don't give two cats meows about what anyone else thinks about me, what I do, what I say, where I go, what I believe in, what I stand for or what I preach or post on social media. I don't care - because God approves of me.  How do you know God approves of you? Well you don't earn it. You don't have to be special, you don't have to be good enough… you simply trust in his grace and his work on the cross. And here is the real secret, when you know you have Gods approval, you are free to be exactly who he created you to be.

What if everything we think we know about stars is wrong? In this explosive conversation, mathematician Stephen Crothers dismantles the foundations of modern astrophysics, arguing that black holes, neutron stars, and gravitational waves are mathematical illusions built on misapplied thermodynamics and flawed logic. With the rigor of a forensic investigator, he exposes how simple errors in stellar models went unchecked for a century—raising unsettling questions about the integrity of science and the nature of the cosmos itself.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go!

There is a chilling pattern of how governments have systematically dehumanized, displaced, and exterminated entire groups of people throughout history using bureaucratic steps.Drawing from real atrocities such as the Holocaust, the Khmer Rouge regime, the Rwandan genocide, and the Armenian genocide, as well as injustices in U.S. history like the internment of Japanese Americans and the treatment of Native and African Americans, I trace a common structure of how oppression builds: with labels, propaganda, silence, and “legal” processes. Societal fear and political power can normalize cruelty. So here's your reminder of the responsibility to notice, speak out, and act before it's too late. Recognize familiar patterns and refuse to let history repeat itself.Get in touch on HorrorStory.com

Is The Diddy Verdict A Societal Rejection Of The 'MeToo' Era Description: The verdict in the Diddy trial did more than divide legal analysts—it reignited a cultural debate we thought had already been settled: Are we still in the #MeToo era, or are we witnessing its slow rejection in real time? In this provocative and timely episode, attorney Eric Faddis joins us to ask whether the jury's refusal to convict Diddy on sex trafficking and racketeering charges reflects something far larger than one trial. Was this a quiet rebuke of #MeToo itself? We dig into how jurors today process trauma testimony, particularly in high-profile cases involving powerful men. Did they not believe the victims—or did they simply believe the behavior, while wrong, wasn't “criminal enough”? And if so, what does that say about where the public conscience currently sits? Eric brings his dual perspective as both a former prosecutor and defense attorney to tackle key questions: Have jurors developed fatigue toward celebrity abuse cases? Was the bar set during #MeToo too high for a jury now looking for “perfect victims”? How does the absence of physical captivity or force change jurors' perception of abuse? We also explore whether prosecutors leaned too heavily on cultural cues—assuming jurors would “feel the moment” without hammering home the legal definitions needed for conviction. Eric explains the difference between moral outrage and legal proof, and how one doesn't always translate to the other in court. Ultimately, this episode asks whether this verdict was less about Diddy—and more about us. If we don't recognize psychological coercion and exploitation as crimes anymore, what kind of accountability is left? #MeTooVerdict #DiddyTrial #EricFaddis #CulturalBacklash #JusticeFatigue #CelebrityTrials #TrueCrimeCulture #PowerAndAccountability #SexTraffickingTrial #HiddenKillers    Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Societal Division is deep. I call it Tribal Dynamics and it is seductive and can be tricky. Power over structures create a unconscious "us vs. them" dynamic.And if you dont match their expectations, then you end up being that black sheep person and it's painful, alienating, and confusing.For me, this pattern showed up early—starting as far back as grade school. Feeling singled out to carry the Tribe's tension and unconscious trauma that I felt so deeply. Being excluded because my moral value didnt match theirs and my psychic and intuitive sensory system was such a old soul, I felt like this tribal world was one I never felt I belonged to. Over time, I realized this isn't about me.CAN YOU RELATE? It's about the Tribe's way of managing stress and discomfort. Often, when leaders or so called authority don't have the tools to regulate their own anxiety or seek support, they unconsciously scapegoat someone to keep control. And here's the kicker: we all carry these broken Tribal or family field patterns around with us. They shape how we show up in communities, technology, governance, workplaces, and relationships.Deep within us, ancient archetypes influence our interactions - the wounded ones, the leaders, the outsiders, and the healers. These timeless patterns can either trap us in cycles of pain or liberate us to live more authentically.So, what's the way out?I developed a simple but powerful approach to healing these broken energetic and holographic stored memory fields. It starts by identifying the unconscious contracts we've made—agreements our essential selves made long ago to survive Tribal dynamics that felt unsafe or painful.Then, through a process of recognition, compassion, and conscious revoking, we can release those contracts. We give ourselves permission to belong, to be seen as whole and worthy — not as the scapegoat or outsider.It's transformative.I've guided myself and others through this journey. Slowly, the suspicion of the power over and power under state softens. The expectation of exclusion fades. And a sense of connection and true belonging grows.If you resonate with this, I invite you to explore this healing further with me.If you're looking for a personalized, real-time way to apply these healing principles and access your inner guidance whenever Tribal Dynamics feel overwhelming or confusing, The Light Between Oracle Journey is your intuitive mentor in your pocket.Designed to help you navigate social stress with clarity and calm, it supports you in making grounded decisions and reclaiming your personal agency — anytime you need it. More on that in a moment...We all carry an imprint of our broken fields with us wherever we go. When we have been battered by social trauma, it gets scary to go into groups, and our nervous system is impacted. We gaslight or flow into alternate states between being frozen and being in fight, /flight, and alarmed aloneness. We anticipate more social trauma. We carry a “broken group field” or a “broken family field” with us, which leaves an easy partnership slot open for the predator and prey dance to begin. What can we do with this pervasive pattern? The most effective way that I have found to disarm this dysfunctional ritual and silent contracts.We are not meant to stay wounded. We are supposed to move through our tragedies and challenges and to help each other move through the many painful episodes of our lives. By remaining stuck in the power of our wounds, we block our own transformation. We overlook the greater gifts inherent in our wounds — the strength to overcome them and the lessons that we are meant to receive through them. Wounds are the means through which we enter the hearts of other people. They are meant to teach us to become compassionate and wise.If you're ready to stop feeling isolated within Tribal Dynamics and start reclaiming your belonging with clarity and confidence, I invite you to experience The Light Between Oracle 5-Layer Journey.Each guiding light oracle blends ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience — giving you tools to tune into your internal GPS and confidently navigate even the most challenging social situations.The one guide I recommend is Empathica.

Tom and co-host Drew taking listeners deep into the volatile landscape of American current events, zeroing in on the LA immigration riots that have dominated headlines. With tensions flaring between national and local leadership—Trump pushing for a hardline federal response, Newsom resisting—the conversation explores the patterns of civil unrest and political division that have marked recent American history. Tom and Drew set the stage by wrestling with the disconnect between lived experience on the ground and the dramatized narrative pushed by media and politicians, and they unpack the psychology and historical context that frame our national sense of crisis. Join Tom and Drew as they analyze pattern recognition in societal upheavals, the rise and repetition of riots, and the role that both media and political actors play in stoking societal fear and division. They candidly debate law and order, the line between peaceful protest and violence, and how responses from leadership can either escalate or temper unrest. It's a raw, unfiltered look at American fault lines through the eyes of two thoughtful centrists with sharply different perspectives on what's at stake and where we go from here.
