1. There is a fantastic video series about Doug Wilson by Gutsick Gibbon here on youtube if you want some more information about this cult.

2. I take issue with the "Mormon primary voice" that your guest describes. I am a convert to the LDS church and have now been an LDS Christian for 50 years. I have never heard the term "primary voice" and I have never seen anyone try to cultivate it. That depiction is demeaning to my faith and it's not representative of my experience, which took place in five States including Utah and in my 8 years in Korea. Also, my husband and I are a team and I don't feel any patriarchal oppressive authority in our marriage whatsoever. In fact its the opposite. Our motto is We Are a team, Go Fight Win! Most LDS mothers do not homeschool.

3. AI is still awful at doing it's job without human intervention. I'm constantly frustrated as AI thinks they know better than me and ignores the most important part of my search question. I constantly have to reword my question to get the answer I'm looking for. Google was more useful a couple of years ago.

4. The best thing I feel I ever did was read books from my mom’s subscription fiction book club as a very young child: fiction comprised of the literary classics. The novels involved religions from all over the world. Even though my upbringing was Christian fundamentalism similar to Tia’s story — although not in circumstances as extreme — I could never shake the knowledge that societies worldwide were seeking religious authority as an answer to life, death and the possibility of life after death. The varieties of religions tell me that people do not have firm answers but are only searching desiring certainty.

5. Now, for the first time, I understand why USA has never had a female President!!! And probably won’t, for a long time to come!!!? (It had always puzzled me a little why other western democracies have crossed that line, but USA never had.)

6. American Christian Nationalism is premiced on Racism…..that is their creed, therefore, of necessity it excludes the theology of Jesus but uses His name as its brand …..its white socio-corporate theism disguised as the God they have created in their image ……JESUSARCHY……yes , that's my word for it .
   Flannery O'Connor said …."You've got to push as hard as the age that pushes against you " , thankyou Tia …. for your book ….its a push in the right direction.
   Trump is just an opportunist, a con , trying to make money and never , never succeeding ,because he can't do it without innate criminality, his association with Christian Nationalism is simply his deal with the devil in exchange for the power …..to make an easy buck .

7. Brilliant interview. At what point do you say a group is a cult – impunity – repeatedly raping children, silencing them, grooming, gaslighting and protecting the rapist = cult.

8. I'm listening for the 2nd time. It's so much to comprehend. This conversation alone has answered everything I have been questioning since day one. I can understand the devil's mindset now.

9. The problem is that Trump is blackmailed by Zionists for the sexy tapes of Epstein case . why the justice department of USA does not give him a pardon and stops the Zionists abusing Trump and American people and block the AIPAC office in USA for further abuse of you american guys . Zionism is dirty minded and they do not leave you alone to progress and achieve high level of science as before .

10. This was not our nation to begin with it was the native Americans how about that so quit trying to shove the Bible down everybody's mouth that sounds a whole problem

11. Christian Nationalism (as well as "Christian fundamentalist) is a made-up term to try to put Christians who appreciate and want to restore their constitutional freedoms (given by God, NOT man or government) that have been whittled away by the progressive/communist/marxist agenda. She says there is no scripture for a "relationship" with God. Well, I have to disagree. Didn't Jesus say to those charlatans who claimed they had done so much for God (they really hadn't but had done all these things for their own glory and fame) and Jesus answered them, "Be gone from me. I never KINEW you!" Nope, they were not allowed into Heaven where only those who KNEW Him would go to be with Jesus and the true believers. "The thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy. But I have come that you may have life an have it more abundantly." John 10:10 – We don't worship or idolize Trump. We just acknowledge what God is doing for America in restoring the freedoms we lost and God chose to use a man named Donald Trump. You don't have to like him or his manners. God chose Jehu to take down Jezebel and Ahab. God chose David to defeat the Philistines and other enemies of Israel. God chose Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to bring about the nation of Israel. God chose Solomon to build the temple and keep Israel in peace. ALL of these guys had major flaws and sins. There is no man without sin. We didn't choose to elect a pastor, preacher, professor or politician. We chose someone who was determined to deliver us from the corrupt cabal that has enslaved us for many decades. The previous regimes were stealing all our freedoms and prosecuting moms at school meetings, whistleblowers of corruption, pastors who spoke up and "eliminated" many who were speaking up and trying to expose the corruption. We are also looking forward to the release of all those being trafficked and the full prosecution of those who are responsible for the trafficking and all the politicians, judges and LE who have been "on the take' from all these wicked and evil creatures, including the cartels and filthy rich moguls. And NO, Trump is NOT one of them and that is one of the big reasons they want him "eliminated".

12. I add to what you've said, Anthony. What courage for Tia Levings to undertake this journey!

13. As I've said, they are "Liars for Gods." This is Neo-feudalism and it is so myopic as to be stupid, amoral, brutish, and backward. It is anti-civilization.

14. 19:40 Now i understand why a right wing extremist family I met 3 years ago named their baby girl Arrow. 😢

15. "Every accusation is an admission."

16. Yes, she is correct.

17. Every projection is a confession.

18. Bravo! Just one thing: please do not put the Israel=enemy+Palestinians=victims as fact. Hamas has killed hundreds of Palestinians since the Israeli army left because they only WANT power. Their terrorism led to this war. They SAID they needed 175'000 dead Palestinian civilians to get the world to destroy Israel for them. Please! See Hamas as what they are: No elections in Gaza since they came into power. Torture and horrid public executions of any Palestinian who opposes them. Hamas/Hizbollah/Iranian terror is rewarded by these half-truths.

19. Tia is a very good communicator!!!!

20. This young lady was “right on the money” about many things!!!

21. It’s also misinformation that Networks like FOX NEWS spew to the public. Fox will also support Trump because he caters to the billionaires!!!

22. They are the 'Pharisees' that Jesus warned us about. Matthew 23 tells us all about their hypocrisy.

23. So basically, they are all anti-christian. It's like they have been taken over by the devil himself! No surprise there if you understand the bible. Praying for all those caught up in the cult.

24. Excellent interview Thankyou!!!

25. She needs to do this on every podcast. Thank you for this program

26. Grocery bills are through the roof. Cauliflower wasn't $5 a head a few years ago.

    Thank you for this very poignant, very intelligent, very calm, very insightful interview, both of you! I'm very grateful.

27. Thank you for this interview and for sharing your story and perspective.

28. It all started with Reagan. Reagan brought in the Christian, right and encouraged The rise. And Reagan destroyed the tax structured favor the rich. He is an evil horrible president.

29. I am in chills because I was just talking to my wife about this today.And then I found this broadcast. Evangelicals and southern Baptist are strong believers in the Old Testament.
    But have no compassion for the new testament. The only compassion that they have is for their own kind. Now I haven't heard any reportings that evangelicals are supportive of the massacre in Gaza, but I was just telling my wife today that i'm sure that they are supportive of it, and you just confirmed it.
    May the true and living god lead us and guide us into our truth.

30. Tia is an amazing woman. Thank you.

31. Trump is the last gasp of the 20th Century BS

32. Release ALL Of The Epstein FILES 🍊👴🏻🤡

33. Thank you! One of the most informative interviews of our time.

34. This is the
    One showed me. She is good.

35. Such an important show! Thank you!

36. Great interview. Very eye-opening

37. Tia, I can relate to you. My mother made all of my family to go Christian Nationalism church in Jacksonville, FL. The reason was because my step-father was in Vietnam so she get a break from six kids. At the age, 12, I realized that type church was not my cup of tea. I was baptized as Methodist.

38. She speaks 100% truth.

39. and these same people are pro-death sentence

40. wow.Asked and answered-I was wondering how this unchristian christianity situation was influencing the electorate ect. Wow.

41. The Fall of the Moral Mask

    When a government begins to apply the same defamation and fear tactics against its own population, it exposes the very mechanism it once used externally.

    Historically, many powers have done this:
    first, they create an external enemy to justify wars, sanctions, or invasions;
    and once the model becomes normalized, they turn it inward to control dissent.

    What we are witnessing now is the loss of moral disguise
    the narrative of “defenders of freedom” no longer convinces
    when a nation criminalizes its own people for thinking differently.

    The mask is falling,
    and the rest of the world is noticing.
    More and more countries are awakening to the truth:
    labels such as “terrorist” or “threat” often depend not on truth,
    but on who controls the narrative
    and what resources are at stake.

    The empire always falls the day it calls its own children enemies.
