The fact that they have historically carved their names in desks makes me think that in some ways we are all still children.
Senator brown seems like a good dude
Sherrod Brown is a great man. Lucky to have him. Thoughtful and fights for the right causes
Harry S Truman increased the value of ten desks, lol!
I love Senator Brown's voice
This man has bipartisan appeal because he genuinely gives a damn. He is a good man and a good Senator.
and Russ Feingold sat there!! Wish we could have him back!!
IKR? That counts for a lot, too. He's a good man.
@@chezmoi42 I volunteered with his last reelection campaign and was just heartbroken when we lost 😭😭
@@jessicaknutson4502 I sympathize. I'm in despair for my country when a zero like Ron Johnson can actually win over a good man like Feingold.
Before too many folks get upset, Brown is quoting loosely from an edition of the CEV translation published by the American Bible Society. It's called the Poverty and Justice Bible. Brown did not make it up or add a new verse to this story in Matthew 25.
Hey thanks man, I tried looking it up and wasnt finding anything.
Good catch. Brown called it the "Faith" and Justice Bible. I was unaware of it, but what Brown presented is an important distinction. A senator might not say a c-store cashier was "less" than him- or herself, but they might think "less important."
I would consider myself less important than Jesus, but he doesn't seem to think so...
@@tomkenney5365 Yup God consider us ALL important enough to die for us... So Yes, when you so compassion for the less fortunate (I dont have much AT ALL but there are many less fortunate than me) you also give to Christ. And give to help not to get back, I believe that's not Christ minded. ijs frfr but 💯Tom
@@iamme596 I agree, if you give expecting to get repaid, you receive your reward at payment time. Giving just because, the reward comes later, where treasures are not subject to thieves and rust.
What an age we live in! If we don't like what the Bible says, we can just get another "translation" that is more palatable to our PC-infected minds.
Decent man.
I don't think the word "least" meant the least worthy. I think it referred to those who, even temporarily, are defenseless or powerless. Nothing unworthy about that.
Yeah, I think its debatable. That's one of the problems I find with religion of all kinds. The texts can be interpreted in thousands of different small ways both during the initial translations and in readings by faith leaders and regular individuals. People use the schemas and constructs theyve already set up in their minds while interpreting the texts and the results are usually biased toward whatever the person wants the text to say, rather than the original intent of the writers (who I also have issue with for other reasons that I won't go into here). I like the translation he is using. I think it takes away some of the ambiguity of the original phrase and I dont see anything wrong with that. I think plenty of people do interpret the text the way he is saying, even if maybe you and some others see it differently. I'm not a religious person, myself but if we go on the assumption that God exists and bestowed his word upon certain people who then wrote it down, well it seems like we've basically endured a really long game of telephone. First there is the inevitable muddled language and mistakes that the original writers would've made purely due to human error and because it is a reeeaaallly long book and there must be plenty of times when maybe something was misstated. Then you've got the millions of translations throughout time. For any of the English translations it had to be translated from the original Latin and then from old English and has been revised plenty of times during the whole process to serve various purposes of agendas of specific humans. On top of that it is then interpreted differently by every person who reads it. Now we could assume that God made sure his message was executed perfectly all along the way, but whose to say which exact translation is that right one since there are sooo many different factions and different religions with different forms of text. Also, if we consider God's pattern of behavior when it comes to intervening in humanity it doesnt seem likely that he would babysit the text all along the way. Anyway, now I've just gone off track a bit, lol. My point is that everyone has different interpretations that often are just manifestations of what they already think/want. On top of that, it is unlikely that any of the current translations are absolutely perfect when compared to the original text and even the original text likely had errors when compared to God's original word (if we are assuming that God exists and gave his word to the people). Again, I'm not religious, but I've thought about this a lot and have observed both the negative and positive effects of religion in society.
@@TheMangomelon789 First, one good thing about the Generous Quran is that it is still in its original form of 1400 years ago. Second, Prophet Mohamed is described in many instances where he helped and respected "the least". Compassion was his motto as , for example, when he honoured the funeral procession of a dead Jew, setting the example for his followers to always respect the dead of whatever faith and standing.
I agree I was taught that is was “these things you did for those in need, you did as if you did those things for me.”
@@koantao8321 Compassion? Yeah, like when he fucked a 9-year-old girl, or when he had all of the male Jews of Qurayza beheaded and for not wanting to be resettled, or when he gave the wives and children of these men to his followers to do with them as they wished, or when he raided town after town to convert them, or when he sold the captured women of those towns into slavery after making them watch the executions of the town's men, or when he allowed his soldiers to rape captive women and slave girls, no matter how old the girls were.
If that kind of compassion forms your moral centre, you can fuck right off.

Get that man some water he sounds like Alex Jones.
No, Charles McGraw, from "Roadblock" (look it up, lol, great film)!

So, we should impeach the Dump twice. Right?

How is "less important" any better than "least of these" lol
"the least of these" vs "seemed less important" - seemed is the part that makes it different.
I just read Matthew 25: 33-40... And its says CLEARLY.. --- If you did ALL these things to the least of them (folks on serious hard times) , you have in the same have done it to me. Saying He is with the afflicted and you have done right by Christ. (And don't do it to get something back, Compassion IS NOT for self-gain.) Then it goes on to say, those who have done the total opposite is not of Me.. Depart from Me, says the Begotten Son... Clearly... Those who have 👀 let them see, and those with 👂 let them hear... ijs frfr
Great ending
He played Davros in Doctor Who
Can this dude run for president in 2024 plz
Ok for a second when i saw the thumbnail i thought this was the actor that played carter burke from aliens, now thats a campaign slogian to get people talking ""no im not that guy that tryed to impregnate Sigourney Weaver with an alien in aliens""

Ok Bruce
Hi, Stephen. We love all that you do. You present a uniquely critical persona, a very necessary and capable jester and cut up. I wish to consider, however, the extent to which our mutual fun with the idiot president may otherwise be distracting us from those for whom every president seemingly provides a distraction.
Why isn’t this man running for president??
Because Ohio would gain another Republican senator and one Portman is bad enough. (Honestly, I don't know, but I'm fine keeping him in the Senate.)
@@snyderly Agreed! I wish more would focus on congress and local offices - those are important too, if not more so.
@@snyderly that's a very good point! And well said
I met the good Senator a few years ago when he visited where I worked at the time. Very personable, honest & sincere. Please don’t ever change, Sherrod !
I think that was a bit of a petty issue with the scripture. But I don't necessarily have a problem with studying with different translations. I usually partner KJV with "The Message." But revelation comes with relationship. Not worth an announcement IMO. But on the other hand. Its cool to get the Word out.
Damn that throat is ashy... He needs to drink some jergens
Nice
Does anyone know what the pin is on his lapel?
I love what he has to say, but I could hardly make it through this video because of his vocal fry. It’s painful…
The pin is a canary in a cage, like the canaries that coal miners carried down into the mines when they worked to warn them of dangerous gas buildup. Brown got the pin from a union worker and he wears it pretty much all of the time as a show of support for the workers' rights movement. He tells the story of the pin quite often in public appearances. And yes, Brown's gravelly voice is a bit weird at first. It's always been that way and I supposed I've gotten used to it. Regardless, he's a great senator and the people of Ohio are lucky to have him.
There are captions

The last real democrat.
Beautiful brease came 😔🌹
Changing the Bible to mean what you would like it to mean. Didn't know that was normal. (sarcastic)
Altering the English translation to match more closely what the translator believes to be the meaning of the original Aramaic.
Losinge?
BRAVO ! let's all hang up signs that say ' AND NEVER COME BACK ! '
QMP RACING
@ 02:00 -- *Matt. 25* -- Senator Brown is almost certainly quite alone in thinking that Jesus was assigning value or rank to his followers. That passage is an *Illustration,* an analogy of the Judgement during the Last Days. Why is he choking on the Gnat of this minor feature of the illustration but letting the Camel of the greater lesson walk by himself, unseen?
Amen!
@@rickythe2nd63 ....TYVM!!!
Not defacing.. maybe.
God is not indebted to high minded individuals who presumptuously aim to "amend," or update the immutable truths of the Bible. Instead, we need to be willing and able to "rightly divide" the Word of Truth. It is already obvious what the 25th chapter of Matthew is saying to untold generations. The expression, "the least of these" is helpful, inasmuch as it alludes to the very real interpersonal perception of folks who, for whatever reason, think less of others. It does NOT imply an embedded prejudice within the Holy Writ itself.
Hey Senator Brown, now do Noah's Flood....oops. Maybe dump the stupid superstitions, huh?
I am Sorry. but Religion should have no place in politics.
Just because a politician is religious doesn't mean there's religion in politics.
Ones religion informs ones politics
The fact you believe that shows why your country is the way it is
@@emmabentley7945 I'm an atheist, but thinking religious people shouldn't hold office or that a religious politician should never bring it up is kind of ridiculous. Is there no religion in your country?
So nice how when you don't like what the holy book says, you can just grab a different version with different words and meanings.
Pretty sure he was just trying to phrase it in a way that made sense in modern day vernacular.
@@jupiterkansas I don't know, it seems like he didn't like the meaning of the passage and liked the message of the other version better. The original vernacular made perfect sense, it was the meaning behind it he seems to disagree with. Picking and choosing what to believe from religious texts is a pet peeve of mine. Granted, this one is minor and I admire him for recognizing his disagreement with the text.
@@Mc-Manticore Well he clearly wanted to have some kind of deep discussion about it but Colbert wasn't going there.
It's unavoidable. The original texts are not in English, and so we have to figure out what set of English words best describes the originally understood meaning. Sometimes the meaning is halfway between two phrasings because there's no such word in English, or not with the exact same connotation. Not to mention some of the more controversial passages where the original meaning is debated, though this is a small minority of verses. And then the fact that modern word usage changes over time, so we continually have to update the translations.
And then superimposed on top of all of that is how pleasurable it is to the ear. There are more literal, accurate translations of the bible out there, such as the NASB. However, they don't sound very good -- they're not very poetic and pleasant to the ear. So then you have other translations like the NIV that are designed to compromise a little on the precise wording in order to make it sound nicer. Different translations for different purposes and situations.
How about Clinton's? Oh wait, it's in Casablanca!
matthew 25:31-46 can be interpreted anyway you like. But the meaning is clear, HELPING the needs of your fellow human being, IS MORE IMPORTANT FOR GOD than any treasure on earth or kingdom in heaven. Every religion has some context that states "Service to Man, is Service to God" .... go figure that out sometime Mr. Senator .... God is not against helping those in need.
manikantan r yes ur right
but IT IS an important distinction...
Especially if it appears in multiple passages!
That wasn't his point, he was trying to point out that the people you help should not be viewed lesser than yourself, but just as the fellow man who need help. He was not eradicating the whole moral summation of mathew 25.
@@barcelonachair6487, Exactly.
What he did was he TJ'd the Bible verse. Jefferson's famous words are an 18th century extension of what Jesus taught. You don't look down on others. We are all far more alike than we are different.
And if you examine a person's character, and you find that there are serious flaws there, then you can take the extra step of considering how and why they got to be that way. And that the difference could very well be accounted for by your position of privilege, rather than anything they were responsible for.
Like it says in that old Styx song, "Deep inside we're all the same."
You don't sound very intelligent, OP
@@dahawk8574 So beautifully, intelligently, precisely put.
Hmm ....different translations (versions) of the Bible
It's very disturbing to see that an elected official believes in an imaginary sky daddy.
@peter g Unfortunately it's not surprising since so many refer to Zeus-like creatures at the end of their talks.
How true, 'quoting' a bible as written by men for men. It confirms to me it has nothing to do with a god of ANY kind, version or vintage. For the small price of your basic faculties of thought, reason, and inquiry suspend your disbelief, permanently, so the passage to a theme park upstairs will be assured.
He's a jerk
Yeah the Bible needs a rewrite
Or to be put in the "fiction" section at the library, where it belongs.
So, you can just pick and choose your favorite translation of the bible to have the cherry-picking built in? How nice. Which translation is your god’s preferred edition...?
I’ve no problem with displays of the human aspect of himself here. But any representatives planting religious bias in our governance is not a good thing and is divisive. There is no national religion
It is amazing how many people do not know that simple fact.
"planting religious bias"
Jeeebus H. Cripes, all he was saying here was the distiction between the idea of someone being "less than" and "seeming less important".
If there is God, I don’t think the take away is that some are or should seem like lesser people. Seems like obfuscating from the reality that all men & women are created equal.
Brown is a clown.
I liked him until I found out he has imaginary friends, it's impossible to take anyone seriously that thinks fairytales are real after they turn 10.
Sorry I stopped listening as soon as I heard his voice. on 0:15 BYE!
