KJ5 IRQ returning for the final time today. Thank you Gray buddy. Yeah, I mean it's been a very delightful conversation today. At least I think it has been. So good job on the net. You always put on a production quality net. I think that's about the highest form of flattery I can give you Gray. Because I know you are almost a perfectionist in my mind. And you like things to be done right. So kudos to you. Let's see. Start off with George. George, if I ever thought you were real serious about some of the joking things you did, I would probably talk to you one on one. I understand you're jesting and I like it when you jest. That means that we're comfortable enough around one another that we're not taking each other too serious. And I think that's how everybody should be. Left and right should probably do that. You know Jeff is right. And Bill, this political climate we're in, you can't be in a Gray area. It's forbidden. Nobody says you can be. And that's what I'm trying to fight against. Am I influenced? And do I lean a certain direction? Of course. Everybody does. Anybody who says I'm right down the middle either don't understand what they're saying or they're fooling themselves. Because everybody has some sense of moral truth that they have to follow. Now wherever that moral truth comes from is a different story. You know, so I think that's why I continue to call myself a moderate or a centrist. Because at heart I am. There are liberal ideologies and policies that I do approve of. There are probably more conservative ones that I approve of. But who can say that's the wrong thing? In my world, that's normal. I mean that's what life should be. In other people's worlds, it could be completely different. So that's why I, 99% of the time, I think don't really care if your political view is right or left. I like you for who you are. My wife and I was just talking about it a little bit ago. And I wonder with Christians, you know I'm not a super super church going fella. In fact I struggle with God probably more than most, at least I feel like I do. And I can say this past week has brought me closer to God. It's brought my entire family closer to God. Which to me is awesome. Because that's the worldview I want my family to have. As the leader of my family, that's what I get to choose. I'm going to take a real quick break. And now that my kids are adults, they get to choose their own worldview. And funny enough, we haven't been to church in... Baby, what is life in a church? I'd say 8 years. 6 to 8 years ago? It's been a long time. But until we stopped going, we were very very big into church. And so now my kids are adults, right? My youngest is 18. So they're choosing their own path. And strangely enough, they seem to be gravitating towards Christ. Which to me is awesome. I mean that's what I hope for. Because that's the worldview I want them to have in life. And I want them to continue to pass that on down in their families. So that's what I mean when I say we're black and white these days. It's hard, hard not to lean one way or the other. And if you try to say you're in the middle and you like a little bit of both worlds, you get ostracized. By both parties. Oh, you're an idiot. Oh, you just don't know what you're saying. Oh, you can't be left or left. I mean you can't be something. You have to be left or left. I think we should fight that more than we should fight each other. That's what I think. Anyhow, I hope you all have a great Monday. And we'll catch this again tomorrow with Russell. This is KJ5ILQ, sending it back to KC2PKG. This is repeated... 73 to you. You know, I looked something up. I'm going to share with you guys. Bill has been wont to say that if the Israelis are committing genocide, then why is the population of Palestinians going up? And as I looked it up, I said it could not be true. And it is true. It is going up. I forgot that there are two Palestinians. There's Gaza and the West Bank. And the people in the West Bank have a very high birth rate. However, the people in Gaza, the population has fallen by 6% since the start of the war. 6%. So making it up with new babies on the West Bank, I'm not sure that really makes up for anything. But we will see. 8E7MR, you finally got up. We finally got back to you. You're fooling around with those young ladies. You have more time for the net. Over to you Terry. 8E7MR.
