Just got back from Maui.
Our crew, myself included, secretly recorded state and federal officials along the burn zone being honest.

🚨 Child Rapist is Pulled Over With Zipper Undone And 6 Children In The Car
42-year-old Jeremy Guthrie was stopped by police for suspicion of DUI.
Upon inspecting the vehicle, Police found 6 children in the car and empty bottles of tequila and whiskey.
Eventually it was proven that Jeremy had been abusing the children and had repeatedly raped and impregnated two 13-year-olds.
This incident happened in July 2022, he was charged with:
- 10 counts of criminal sexual penetration of a minor.
- 3 counts of criminal sexual contact with a minor.
- 2 counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
- 1 count of false imprisonment.
Guthrie has been held without bond at Bernalillo County's Metropolitan Detention Center in Albuquerque since July 2022.
He's due back in court in November.
This case disgusted me to my core so I deemed it necessary to do a longer tweet than usual on it.
He deserves the absolute worst punishment that the human brain is capable of thinking of.
I asked earlier if Christians should send their kids to the public government schools. My answer is an emphatic "No," which I'd like to explain here:
Thesis: Christians shouldn't normally send their kids to public/government schools.
Eleven reasons why:
First, they are funded largely through unjust property taxation that puts some of the most productive members of society in perpetual renter status to the state.
Property taxes like this are particularly wicked state-sponsored theft. They mean that nobody actually owns their own property. Public education is therefore funded through a system of economic slavery. I'd say that's bad.
Second, those stolen dollars are comically mismanaged.
Public education is a massive bureaucracy, most of which is entirely unnecessary to the work of a human-scaled education. We spend upwards of $15k per student per year—with poor educational outcomes.
Third, much of the public education infrastructure is built—not to educate children with excellence—but to free mothers up to join the workforce.
School hours.
Number of school days per year.
Increasing push for earlier education.
Again, bad. We need moms at home.
Fourth, public schools are Sunday Schools for secular humanism—except they get 30x more time in the week than the good kind of Sunday School.
They teach evolutionary origins, relativistic epistemology, sexual perversion, and other vapid doctrines of demons. They've succeeded in discipling millions of our children in folly.
If you want proof, just watch the news, look at the average teenager on TikTok, or otherwise use your eyeballs.
Fifth, education which is not oriented around the lordship of Christ is dis-integrated.
In Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. The fear of God is the beginning—not just of wisdom—but of knowledge as well (Pr. 1:7). Catch that? The fear of God is the beginning of properly knowing things.
Knowledge not integrated to Christ's lordship is fundamentally faulty.
Sixth, students become like their teachers, and teachers don't check their gods at the classroom door (Luke 6:40).
Do you want your children to be discipled by atheists, Mormons, and humanists 30+ hours a week? They will become like their teachers.
Seventh, the fruit has been tremendously bad.
Very few professing Christians with respect to percentages homeschool or privately educate their children. Most use public schools. The fruit of this has been terrible in terms of the doctrine, worldview, and perseverance of our kids.
Eighth, the Scriptures are not silent on the duty of Christian education, as has already been demonstrated from the Proverbs. Fathers are specifically charged with raising their children in the paideia and nouthesia of the Lord (Eph. 6:4).
These words—paideia and nouthesia—aren't just about doctrinal catechesis; they refer to the total enculturation of a person. This requires a Christian education, not a pagan one that you must constantly fight against after the fact.
Ninth, missionaries are equipped before they're sent.
"But our kids are salt and light in the public school!"
Are they? Would you send them to an unreached people group as a missionary? In truth, our kids are more often evangelized by secularists than the other way around.
Tenth, your anecdote isn't an argument.
"But I grew up in public school, and I'm a pastor!"
Praise God! Me too. But anecdotes aren't arguments. Look at the trends: Huge swathes of kids are leaving high school as nominal secularists who went to youth group, not Christians.
Eleventh, but [my exception]!
Single moms are a thing. Hard circumstances are a thing. I get it, I really do; I'm a pastor of a church full of real people. We need churches to step up and help in these cases.
But exceptions don't establish healthy norms.
So: Don't send your kids to public schools.
Churches, start schools, homeschool coops, and otherwise help with this essential task.
Families, homeschool or find a good Christian school. There are endless good resources out there—many of them free or low cost.
Christians: You can do it. The Lord is with you. He doesn't give us tasks and then neglect to give us the means to see those tasks through.
If I told you that my CHILD was injured
in a car accident, you would be compassionate and worried. If I told you it was because the BRAKES FAILED, you would be shocked and appalled. If I told you I found out the manufacturer decided not to bother testing the brakes, you would be mad and tell me to SUE. If I told you I found over 60 studies showing they knew they would fail and opted instead to cover it up,
your HEAD WOULD SPIN. If I further told you that: The government KNEW ALL ALONG ABOUT THE DANGERS; that laws were passed to PREVENT ANYONE FROM SUING the manufacturers; that there were HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of killed/injured CHILDREN, you would be beyond yourself trying to work out how to help these kids. But replace the word CAR with the word VACCINE and you would run a mile. Why? Think about it because this is the truth. Millions of parents are fighting each day JUST TO BE HEARD. The evidence is beyond question. Vaccines are not properly tested and hundreds of studies show the connection between vaccines and serious injuries, including seizures, neurological damage, Guillain Barre Syndrome and Death. This is besides the high rate of life- threatening allergies, asthma, cancer and
chronic ailments amongst vaccinated children. Where are the recalls? Where is the demand for answers? Where is the public outrage? The alternative
media is the only place where this information can be found because the truth is being suppressed.
So are you going to continue ignoring the warnings and the truth until YOUR child is injured or killed?
EDUCATE BEFORE YOU VACCINATE
Your kids will adapt to the worship services. I promise. You don’t NEED children’s church, you just need patience in the pew and a church body who understands the eternal value of all generations worshipping together.

Navy SEAL Chris Beck came out in 2013 as transgender. @andersoncooper did a special on @cnn about it. His story was used as propaganda to allow trans people in the military and to popularize the issue. Now Chris is ready to expose the truth. Watch here: https://t.co/ChbjE6Kgly
