I'm listening to this on my morning runs and it has been an pretty good listen thus far. I feel that it has a very interesting take on race relations in the West (USA for the most part).
Has anyone else read or listened to this yet?

Yeah he shitts all over Ibram X Kendi in that book.
I enjoyed the book.. as I enjoyed his other ones
Whenever he puts out a new one talking about the covid response and how the culture has gotten even more wonky and stupid will be great
If you didn’t know, he writes a weekly column for the New York post. I always read it each week

But while I read that whole book, I bet that this one is better. Just a condensed and more accessible version:
Other than that, this is a must:

War on the West is a good read. Do yourself a favor and search Douglas Murray on YouTube. He’s fun to watch in debates.

Are you Presbyterian by chance? I know Trueman is.

I was raised Southern Baptist and non denominational (Chapel on the Campus—where they baptized in an above-ground pool by the LSU Lakes) but we are being officially “sworn in” to the PCA next Sunday. I’m still ambivalent about baptism. Fighting over it (as my mom and I sort of jokingly do) defeats the whole purpose of having it. Paul would probably make some snarky comment about might as well drown yourself than fight over it.

I should have worded that differently. I meant I can see both sides re credo and paedo. I have read and listened to theologians, pastors and scholars I respect debate it (always friendly and respectfully) and still can’t choose.
So I’m like the E Free church and allow for both in my mind and heart. Our boys are 3 and 5 and haven’t been baptized. May wait at this point.

Then there are the questions throughout middle and high school of "Am I really saved?!" , "Do I need to get baptized again?!"
This, in my opinion, is very unhealthy.
