A BYU professor made a false and malicious accusation online in regards to a voicemail he received from a deep-voiced man. He more than alludes that this was Greg Matsen of Cwic Media, a "TH-camr" that had "harassed" his colleagues. The voicemail has been heard by over 40,000 people. The professor knew exactly what he was doing. We play the voicemail in this episode.
This is the same professor who threatened BYU students with the Honor Code Office in regards to the leaked "whiteness" activity we covered in a previous episode. In addition, we analyze the professor's radical, Critical Race Theory supporting tweets.

The fact that this professor is attacking you is a strong indicator that you are on the right track. Thanks Greg for all that you do.
Thanks. That’s how I look at it.
@@CwicShow It's like that quote from Brigham Young about the bells of hell ringing whenever a temple is being built. The idea being, where there is the most opposition, it is likely in response to those efforts that are indeed worthwhile.
Wow, Greg! You've hit a nerve! Keep it up.
Hi Greg. You are teaching me important principles, which I happen to agree with but which I have tended to keep to myself. After the 2020 contentious election where I voiced my opinion about many things and felt the wrath of friends and family, I wondered if engagement and dialogue were even possible anymore. The world has seemingly gone mad. I kept as much as possible to myself, but have still felt no peace because I felt I was hiding. After much consideration and prayer and studying scriptures I have come to realize that I can't make peace with a world that doesn't want peace. It wants my total submission. I see your example of articulating the truth without shying away, holding yourself and others accountable without belittling anyone, and I think I understand what the only path to inner peace will be in this day and age. Thank you for inspiring me to have a voice, and the understanding of why I must use it, come what may.
Kind words. Thank you
I’d invite you to pray everyday for the Holy Ghost to be with you & to speak through you and that as you use your voice it will be His voice. As I’ve done this He’s magnified my ability to “see things as they really are” and many times when I open my mouth “at that moment He’ll fill it with the words that I’m supposed to say.” The Holy Ghost will also help you discern when you need to say something and when you don’t.
Pauline, please remember the words of our Dear Saviour in Matthew 23. I will just quote a portion of this Chapter, in which The Lord condemns the scribes and Pharisees for their hypocrisy: " 29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the darnation of hell?
34 ¶ Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
Greg is a man of The Lord, just as you are a woman of The Lord and John Williams who follows after you is a man of The Lord. Blessed are they who defend Zion in the name of The Lord. I am not happy with the way my Tithing is spent on BYU-Provo. I read a book review of "The Fate of the Persecutors of the Prophet Joseph Smith" in which a BYU Professor talks about the need for myth making by Mormons about the martyrdom of Joseph Smith." I was flabbergasted. This was the sort of nonsense I would expect from those apostates who join the cult of John Dehlin, not a BYU Professor who is being paid from my Tithing.
Pauline I feel the same way. And felt the same things. I say my prayers & read my scriptures daily & do CFM. Sometimes I study for 4 hours. I know that God is there. I also know He isn’t going to keep all the bad that’s going on away from our eyes or ears. I would appreciate people talking about it, with understanding. It’s one of the reasons I watch CWIC media, that and the fact Greg points things out in CFM that make it more meaningful & spiritual. Having a place where these things that are happening are spoken about, is very helpful.
My thoughts as well, you expressed yourself very well! I'm so grateful for people like Brother Madsen to be an inspiration to us!
Way to stand by your character and remain on higher ground Greg.
Greg= classy, articulate, humble and grounded on the right foundation. So glad he’s fighting on our side.
Those who know you and listen to you know you'd never do what the professor is claiming. God bless you Greg. Praying for you 🙏 🙏🙏🙏
I've looked at your character and how you diplomatically but also clearly state your position. You are a force for good and I am slowly becoming a better communicator and person from your example and channels content. The truth will always do.
I appreciate that.
What a cool comment. 😎
Standing up for yourself, you are standing up for all of us. Thanks Greg!
Good point! I think that’s right.
This podcast has changed my life . Not only is there a place to hear about difficult issues but the gospel lessons are spot on .
This is rampant in the Church . My very devoted to the Church adult daughter had to recently leave a favorite blog after the much celebrated author …featured Everywhere in the Church …set up on “altar “ in her home to President Nelson , Joe Biden AND George Floyd . She then informed her followers anyone not behind BLM needed to get off her blog . It was a bloodbath between so called “disciples “ of Christ attacking those that didn’t love the “altar “ . It broke my daughters’s heart to leave her favorite blog but she knew there was No choice . It is EVERYWHERE .
Thank You Greg because you DO speak for many of Us .
Thank you for your comments. Very kind! I know about the influencer you are talking about. Sad to see. Good for your daughter! That takes thought, commitment, and values.
@@CwicShow It was a TOUGH call but I kept assuring her she didn’t need the contention. She is a BYU law graduate and to see the school go this way has been hard too. Good thing We “still “ have Disney …Lolololo
@@tomasina10 how can I find that blog? What is the author's name? I'm just curious.
Thank you for continuing to expose all of this. When we understand what is happening around us, we are better prepared to respond wisely when we are confronted with it. I am getting more educated about CRT and can help others to understand it also. I appreciate your time and effort to inform us.
I suspected for quite some time (even when I was at BYU) that these hard left views were burrowing in to the BYU and church culture. I appreciate the exposure because sunlight is the best disinfectant.
My first question to byu and the professor, and any other teacher or institution, is if you have a problem with others seeing the assignment what are you hiding? If you have that concern it may be best to not give the assignment.
I have listened to your commentary on the subject and never felt of believed you to be attracted any one person rather explaining what the underlying bases of the issue is and the concerns you have with it.
As we have been taught the wicked take the truth to be hard and do things in secret. The lord will not do his work is secret but openly for all will look.
Thank you Greg.
One way the adversary has infiltrated the church is through BYU and its professors. Greg, you have your finger on the pulse of the problems brewing with the culture of the church. We appreciate, need and look forward to your insights. Thank you!
I am not positive, but I think this professor is seeking notoriety and fame, by using flimsy evidence to slander Greg. Another Juicy ...
Thank you Greg for standing up to the smears that are circling around.
Yes that’s one of the tactics that they have always liked to use to gain attention is to sensationalize it. Nothing new about that professor’s tactic. The same things that they did to Joseph Smith trying to make him look bad and to turn people against him.
2nd Nephi 27: 16
"And now, because of the glory of the world and to get gain will they say this, and not for the glory of God."
Man Greg, you’re the most fair person I’ve ever listened to! This is crazy! Whatever happened to school being about ABC and 123 ? You are correct and I enjoy your show! This is the playbook that they use over and over:
1 - deny that they are teaching. 2- yes we are teaching but it’s not what you think. 3- why are you so mean and unfair? Don’t you care about ppl? And 4- anyone who doesn’t go along with this is a racist/terrorist. We are seeing the patterns. Let’s hope the rest can wake up!
@@levi5459 I totally agree with you. Except, aren't some of these "pliable minds" RMs? Is BYU just another university where if you want a good grade on the curve, you have to suck up to your professors, lick their boots and kiss their butt? If so, I would prefer that my "widow's mite" Tithing be spent elsewhere.
Greg I sincerely appreciate your channel, your opinion and your lessons. I personally am learning to put aside my USMC marine mentality and have open discussion and communication instead of battling and destroying my enemies. You do great work/service.
Semper Fi!
Don't put your USMC marine mentality too far away. Remember Captain Moroni!
I took a class from this guy in 2016. Had to take a "Multiculturalism" class for a teaching program that I ended up dropping out of. That was my first personal exposure to this kind of ideology. I was expecting a class about methodologies for teaching children of various backgrounds. What I got was a class on racism, sexism, and classism, along with assignments talking about invisible backpacks of white privilege.
I had the audacity once to very openly oppose the purpose of an online assignment, and one of the other students was concerned. Her argument against me was simply "What you're saying disagrees with what we're learning in class." As Greg has pointed out, the fact that these Satanic doctrines are being taught as BYU is particularly dangerous because SO many students assume that anything taught at BYU must be good or approved by the Lord. Unless a student is already very conservative, they will fall for this garbage because they can't fathom that false ideas could be taught at "the Lord's university."
I'm very disappointed in Prof. Bybee.
I tried very hard to give him the benefit of the doubt in that class. I hated what he taught, but he seemed like a nice enough guy. Very sad to see this behavior from him. Looking back, I wish I had been more outspoken during the class. I mostly kept my mouth shut because I just wanted to get through it.
This comment is us. The silent minority. It echoes my experiment the U a decade ago. I stayed quiet and quietly dropped the class. But these bullies are in the open and are straight up indoctrinating America and we have all got to speak up. It's gonna be uncomfortable. But the left eventually crosses a line. Cuties = cancel Netflix. Dumb Dad syndrome = cancel Disney+. And CRT = literally just repost what they said and they get offended - by themselves.
I've listened to both sides of this debate. CRT and its variations are not the way to "root out racism". It contradicts with the gospel on so many levels. Those who support it and are pushing it on young people, whether in college or grade school, have been deceived by the father of lies himself. And as you were saying, the fact that some are trying to combine these destructive "philosophies of men" with the words of our apostles and prophets, makes me sick to my stomach.
Thank you for standing up and respectfully fighting for the truth, even in the face of slander and harassment. I hope you continue, because you have a growing army behind you.
Trent, I agree. The author of CRT is the devil himself. The only thing worse than CRT being founded by the devil is that members of the Church who are peddling CRT ideas don't know that they are doing the bidding of the adversary.
Honestly, I think it's crazy that a BYU professor would slander a TH-camr with a very modest number of viewers. 😳
It hit a nerve but it's a way for him to reach a larger audience all for his huberis. Ezra Taft Benson wrote about this kind of person many years ago. It's important to read the teachings of the Prophet's past, and present. Through the ages we have been warned through The Lord's earthly "mouthpiece" to beware of these supposedly learned people who will seek their own glory and to lead many astray.
the term "whiteness" is divisive. Imagine if a professor went around pushing the idea of "blackness"
Actually, there are people, not just in the USA, but in Australia where I live, where some of our Aboriginal people, who have admittedly been hard done by, are promoting blackness. I have 31 chronic health problems and live in social housing. Where is my white privilege? Because I am educated to post-grad university level is not of great worth now that I experience cognitive impairment. My "white privilege" is being a Priesthood holder in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and being worthy to hold a Temple Recommend. This same privilege is accorded all of our Heavenly Father's children if they are willing to "Come Unto Christ." Thus having a white skin and being descended from white ancestors affords me no privilege. Holding the Priesthood and being Temple worthy is NOT a civil right, nor a human right. it is an honour we earn by faithful obedience to the commandments and our covenants.
Professor Ruiz Bybee is in fact a proponent of "la raza". In a textbook called 'Affirming Language Diversity in Schools and Society', he co-authored a chapter titled 'Colonial Education in the Southwest: White Supremacy, Cultural and Linguistic Subtraction, and the Struggle for Raza Studies'.
critique is not harrassment
The devil teaches there is no devil -
Keep up your fight to save America. This is much more than just a church issue.
"America" will be a bigger theme this year!
As they’ve said themselves - CRT (and critical theory) isn’t a noun. It’s a verb. They can hide behind the “it’s only for grad students” because so few understand that a critical theory isn’t complete without praxis (merging theory and practice)This is their own definition.
That professors tweets have the projection levels turned all the way to 10/10.
Greg thanks for sharing this message about what is going on at BYU and in higher education. I admire your ability to keep things on a civil level and for your clear thinking, so refreshing. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for being my voice, Greg. I sincerely appreciate your efforts to bring more transparency to BYU. I hope you’ll keep it up!
My pleasure!
Haha, I was just about to comment about how Motte and Bailey these activists talk, and then you literally brought it up. Thanks for your insights!
Brother Greg, I didn't realize how much your voice sounds like Earl Ray Jones when leaving a voice message. Stay strong Brother. You are not alone.
BYU blue is going Evergreen
I am so tired of BYU allowing professors like this. Utah has to realize that they can't play middle ground "win win" games with this stuff.
Amen, amen and amen!!! Be blessed🌿
I totally agree with you. The middle ground is rapidly disappearing under our feet, it seems foolish to me to even try and stand on middle ground, like our Governor.
Hi Greg! Thank you for bringing this issue to light. It's obviously demonic on their end, and I am SO HAPPY we have conference this weekend. 😇
Let's all get our spirits prepared to receive some beautiful revelation, and more armor for the battle🤺🤍🕊
God bless you AND BYU (they really need it.) 👋🏻🙏🏼👍🏻
The contrast between the very careful and fair way you use and present information, and the unfair and deceitful way the “other side” responds, makes obvious which side is of the “light” and which is of the “darkness”.
In this telestial world the darkness and the light are continually at enmity with one another. We have the example of our Savior in how to deal with it, and the way you handle it is so Christ-like. You are a wonderful example to many of us of combatting evil with the tools of light.
Thank you for bringing this information to the forefront. I’m so sad to see BYU in the middle of this ugliness rather than the shelter from the storm, as it was for me.
The fact that they are coming after you means you're getting to them.
This professor responds like a typical liberal progressive when caught with their hand in the cookie jar.
We don't want or need people like this teaching our children. He also is bringing the Church into disrepute. Thank you for the work you are doing and those students did nothing wrong. My kids had to sign a code of conduct document which I read. It does not cover what this man has accused the students of. He is at fault in fact. He needs to go!!
We live in a day where bearing faults witness is rampant.
Rampant, celebrated and profitable
I won't get into the full story, but short version is I'm waiting to get my license to be an elementary teacher. I originally wasn't interested in it because education is such a politically toxic environment and I wanted nothing to do with it, however I feel very strongly that The Lord has guided me to this profession. I'm starting to see this as my battle ground as it where. It scares me as I don't know what pitfalls are waiting for me and I hope I'm up for the challenge, but I know if I hold on to God, He'll guide me to where i need to go. The most important thing is I must protect the kids I'm given the best I can from this nonsense. I know that much, and I hope I can be a teacher that can foster a good relationship with the parents I work with.
The last thing I want to say to anyone reading this and wondering how they can stand up and save their country. Yes, you can get into politics (especially local) and yes, you can get involved in things like being a poll watching, and those are all important things to do. However, may I suggest a few things conservative media might not (but should) suggest as well? Become a teacher. Become a parent. Become a spouse. Get into the workforces that the far left have taken over and help drive them out. Be an amazing parent or spouse and raise a strong family with an eye towards God. These kinds of backbone jobs or life choices may be the MOST American things you can do today. The strength of America is in it's families and children. Help be that strength. If all you do in your life is be a fantastic spouse and parent that instills correct principles, you've done your duty to your country. THAT is how we push back, one family at a time.
This is so well said. In my book, teaching is SO influential, and the reason I (and we) are so terribly upset at their breach of trust (the teachers who are not holding to gospel truths). And the reason we need to make our homes temples of God. I have been on this soapbox for many years, and I hope that all of you who have more years ahead of you than I might have, will be up for the battle. I am doing all I can, but will try to do more! Thanks to all of you, and especially Greg, for all your efforts to bring wickedness into the light. Read Elder Packer for more on this subject. He has been trying to help BYU professors stay focused on teaching truth for many many years. I can only imagine his great sadness at this. But we must remember that "there are more with us than with them", if our eyes be opened so we can see!!
BYU student here. I support you 100% keep up the good work 👌👍🙌
Wowwww I would refuse to complete that assignment and I am a “person of color”
Wow. The mental contortions required to justify to himself his behavior toward the students and toward you, as well as his defense of CRT, which goes against the prophets he claims to support, are impressive. I think it would be difficult to live with that much inner turmoil and hypocrisy.
Keep up the good work, we need this
Will do
I think they keep adding 'nationalism' to the prophet's call to remove racism. Putting a specific word in the mouth of the prophets.
I didn't think "nationalism" was what was said either.
@@andrewcoburn1234 no it wasn’t. You are correct
I guarantee that professor supports nationalism for latin countries, but he would use the marxist language of 'decolonialism' in place of 'nationalism'.
Thank you for tracking this stuff. I've told church youth if they want to have a BYU experience, go to BYU Idaho.
My son is at BYU. He has no issues with professors. Quite the opposite. He's a freshman and shares how each is outstanding. In contrast, these wacky, activist professors are rare. You've got some wild liberal ones in Rexburg, too. I've read of faculty raising all sorts of Cain at BYU-I.
No place is exempt from these ideologies. The differences between Provo and Rexburg are vast in some respects, but nearly identical in most ways.
@@nealljones that needs to change. There is no place for racist marxist philosophy in church schools.
@@alindalt2897 I don't think you understand how dangerous this particular rhetoric is.
These professors are not as rare as you may think at BYU. Certainly not the majority, but growing in numbers and influence.
Also, do not conflate “liberal” with these professors. They are not liberal. They are radical far left. I had great liberal professors at BYU that did not teach these ideologies. They didn’t believe in them.
@@CwicShow absolutely, traditional liberals are exposing these things, like Dave Rubin, there are others.
Thank you for shining the light on this so it can be rooted out
When are upper leadership going to assert themselves to stop people like that tearing the church apart??!
Is BYU getting tithing dollars?
THE LEADER is returning and he will be talking these matters into his own hands.
Yes, BYU-Provo received $813 million from the Church in 2023 according to BYU's financial statements.
It is not at all surprising that the reaction to transparency says volumes about the superficially righteous motives, then giving way to the malicious intent. As I discuss with people, watch the language the initially use as the “tell” of their disingenuous, even sinister agenda.
"Be kind to everyone
...except that guy"
Every time.
"The prophetic call to root out nationalism of any kind"
I must have missed that part of Conference. I think he may have let the mask slip a bit there.
Good work, Greg. As the saying goes, "If you're getting flak, it means you're over the target"
Very good!
I appreciate what you're doing with your podcasts. Don't be discouraged by these leftist extremists.
Ok, I've heard it ALL! I'm sick and tired of these off beat professors at BYU! Why are these extremists hired at BYU? Why do they feel the need to teach their ideology at the university?
I stand by you. That is so obviously not you, and anyone has listened to you for any amount of time knows it.
Also, you’re not even right-wing.
He surely isn’t on the left, don’t be shy about standing on the right side.
@@smuggythornton I’m not saying he’s left, but if anything he seems right of center, to me. And that is according to the modern political compass with which I have so many issues.
Greg is sensible, thinks clearly, and he uses the gospel to inform his thinking instead of trying to make the gospel fit in the box of secularism.
Is there such a thing as center wing. Thats Greg.
If it divides and pits one against another then it is a tool of the Adversary. Hence CRT is that tool.
My 18year old son has been intent on attending BYU for years, but since we have become aware of the CRT stuff and the change of atmosphere on campus he is not sure he wants to attend there and is leaning toward Southern Virginia University, but he is a STEM guy so we're not sure it's a good fit
BYU is a better fit for STEM. He will have less exposure to these ideologies than in other departments.
I know the truth, you know the truth and God knows the truth. You are an awesome person! So sorry this is happening to you! Keep telling the truth and be blessed🌿
Ridiculous!!! Thanks so much for all you do.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I went to BYU but none of my children have. I am glad that you are keeping us informed.
Threats? How Christlike....
The very war in heaven was over Equality of Opportunity (God’s plan that Christ advocated) vs Equality of Outcome (Satan’s plan “not one soul will be lost”). I don’t know how anyone can read the Standard Works and not see. There are definitely Tares and Wolves in Sheep’s clothing. This was all Prophesied over and over by the Prophets and by Jesus himself. How can you possibly read 1 Nephi and not know that this nation was founded by God so the Christ’s gospel could be restored.
You are obviously over the target to get this kind of misrepresentation.
I am a retired advanced placement American history teacher I taught the oppression of many types of groups of course I covered slavery in all of its evils I covered the oppression of women I cover the oppression of the poor against the quote robber barons I cover the oppression of minorities and new immigrants I covered the oppression of women as they struggled to get the vote I covered the horrible treatment of black civil rights leaders who were only peaceably trying to get their constitutional rights etc etc so I don't understand why people think that these things are not being taught and haven't been taught in American history courses also my textbook stated that when the first slave ship arrived in America in the early 1600s no one could purchase because they we're too expensive so the indentured servant program was more popular at first of course we know that slavery existed in all the colonies but really didn't take off anywhere except in the south and I also taught of how damaging to the entire nation and the years that have followed were the Southern leaders and people's push to keep slavery it literally tore the nation apart which they seemed willing to do over that great evil
Sadly it was a very small group of planters …some Black …that benefited from the slavery system. Around 15 percent benefited while the rest lived poor farm lives . The vast majority of soldiers that died fighting for the Confederacy were NOT slave holders . The southern culture developed differently than the North and families/neighbors lived dependent upon each other for life sustaining needs . It was the unthinkable to not support your neighbors-Society in the Civil War . A man that did not fight for the Confederacy would have been disowned or hung by his community . Many of the men killed left behind generations of poverty from their loss . Slavery exacted a HUGE price on people of All races and was an abomination practiced thorough out the world …still is . NO ONE is ignoring this history or the history of ANY minority . As an old history major and American history TA at BYU , I Never shied away from learning or teaching about oppression of groups . CRT is something different than TRUE history .
From reading about CRT it was only taught at colleges for people taking up law to become lawyers, judges, etc….
It was written by Black Americans on how Racism is apart of our society and how it affects American Descents of Slavery ADOS. We all know that Racism is still apart of American society.
By their fruits ye shall know them. You’re a good tree.
Why is it that many LDS professors teach their own twists on man-made ideologies as if it's the Gospel of Jesus Christ? This is a good example of 2 Nephi 9:28 "28 O that cunning plan of the evil one! O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men! When they are learned they think they are wise, and they hearken not unto the counsel of God, for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves, wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not. And they shall perish."
this professor is far from LDS doctrine
@@SaxSpy exactly, but using the LDS college as a sort of cover.
There were no Nephites, no Lamanites, no Lemnalites nor any manner of 'ites. There were only The People of Christ. The devil wants to divide us, as a people and as families.
I would definitely not constitute what that professor did as being a peacemaker. We can disagree without being disagreeable. But what was done only stirs up contention and is part of the “cancel” culture. I don’t think having to hide assignments can possibly be a good thing and he seemed overly aggressive and bitter once it came to light. I try and look at the fruits of these differing philosophies and ideas for “by their fruits we shall now them”. I wish we could all identify as children of God first and foremost.
From what I gather based on what you are saying, that professor is really under the influence of the Adversary... He needs to get humble and do some serious soul serching.
Greg, I greatly appreciate you sharing information. It’s hard in today’s world to spread the truth.
File a defamation lawsuit against the BYU professor.
thank you for bring facts out into the light and provide context to the issue. I appreciate being able to evaluate the situation to better understand what's going on at BYU. It's sad that CRT is even part of the dialog. I'm thankful that Pres. Nelson has address this head on.
The last days will bring divide even amount the church members: President Benson talked very clearly about this growing division in the Church that we are experiencing. He said: “Sometimes we hear someone refer to a division in the Church. In reality, the Church is not divided. It simply means that there are some who, for the time being at least, are members of the Church but not in harmony with it.
Here it comes...
I told you these guys are snakes. They have power to bruise your heel, but you have the power to crush their heads. And that you must do so they don't continue to poison this generation. I know it is hard to do, but with the armor of God we can stand strong against these snakes and recognize them for what they are.
Great job cutting through the sophistry!
Trying to keep a sharp knife!
My blood is boiling just about now. It hurts my heart, though I’m a native Californian, to even think that Angela Davis is still getting attention in public schools. She was a violent criminal in the 1960s and 1970s. I am so thankful that my elementary school age grandchildren are being homeschooled; I hope they aren’t learning about her.
I’m also feeling upset that Eric Ruiz Bybee, a member of the Church, thinks it’s ok to lie about you, Mr. Matsen. That just strengthens my opinion that you are an the right track, if “they” must lie about you.
No Ifs, Ands, or Buts- this "professor" has crossed the line and absolutely must have his employment at BYU terminated. While I suspect that you probably don't want to Greg, we cannot sustain such a man as Eric Ruiz Bybee.
Hang in there Greg. Like you’ve said - those that are with us are more than those that are with them.
I am more of the persuasion of Dr Marting Luther King, while far from perfect, I strive not to judge a person based on the color of their skin, rather the content of their character. CRT seems to teach the opposite.
Just to clarify, as a student, about the honor code position, and the threats.
It goes against the honor code to post assignments online bc that’s how some students cheat. Students who cheat are known to post assignments, test, notes, etc. online for others to use, (which is a big no no!) especially since the curriculum and material is covered under copyright law.
More ppl cheat than you would expect, especially at BYU, sad as that is, and so it’s a pretty common problem. And, as students, we understand, and are told explicitly and repeatedly, while in school, that posting stuff like this online is a punishable offense. Punishable via the honor code, and punishable due to copyright law. That’s why it’s such a big deal, and why we can’t post course materials online.
Bottom line: There’s a right way and a wrong way to go about whistleblowing assignments like this, and posting it to instagram is the wrong way to go about it. It may be the fast easy way to blow the whistle, but doing it this way really doesn’t protect the student at all, and actually it leaves them very vulnerable to threats like this.
Sad, this whole thing is just sad.
There are situations where blowing the whistle in this manner may be warranted. Especially if students did escalate with no action taken. It happens and frankly, it's good. Everyone should see this kind of stuff. I'm a father with kids quickly reaching college age. These kinds of events are helpful in that decision-making process involving college attendance. Institutions have a nasty habit of doing damage-control to obfuscate facts involving events like these. The facts are important. The professor said what he said and it was (thankfully) recorded and shared.
Deflecting, this is not about copyright or revealing protected material. There are and can be those issues about posting materials, quizzes and tests, answers. This was about showing what is going on in the education department / college regarding CRT.
@@kz6fittycent my only problem with blowing the whistle this way is that it doesn’t protect the student as a legitimate whistleblower. When you go through the proper channels, there are protections in place to protect the student. Whereas posting it to instagram leaves the student vulnerable.
@@joepiloto I agree about the intent however copyright laws aren’t interested in intent. They’re pretty straight forward and there isn’t that sort of wiggle room. (Legally speaking)
Really my round about point is, as parents I’m sure the last thing you want is $1,000’s if not 10’s of $1000’s of dollars in legal fees bc proper whistleblower protocols weren’t followed by your student. Which, I’d bet the family of this student is going to have to fight against. And… that could could really sour them against the University, and the church. Which would be very sad, not to mention, unnecessary.
Obviously not you. Love and support you and so appreciate your work. 🥰
Thank you.
@@CwicShow I guess I'd like to know if there is anything else we can or should be doing as supporters.😍
Its much more than the voice that ensures its not you. Nothing about it sounds like you.
Im not feeling any kindness towards this guy unfortunately.
What a waste of your time when you do so much good.
@@loisleonard9436 What to do - get educated on this movement, be aware when you see it, speak up. Thank you!
Humans against Mike Lee…be kind? 🤦🏻♀️ I love a good debate. I’m always grateful when someone who knows truth will take the time to “set me straight” in a spirited debate. I always want to land on the side of truth. I’m not always right and thank heavens for those who took the time to reason with me. Unfortunately we are loosing the ability to be civil with those that we disagree with. When you truly feel you have truth on your side there is no need to get angry or attack. I tend to think most people who get angry, lie, and attack know they are in the wrong.
Wolves in sheep's clothing at BYU.
The summation of our day is equality of opportunity vs satan’s plan of equity of outcome.
I am very happy Elder Holland used the musket fire and the sound thereof as a clarifying analogy when he addressed BYU'S faculty and staff, its been a long time coming. A shameless plug: Along with CWIC media, the subscribers here would be well served, if they aren't already, by taking in Dr. James Lindsay's very complimentary "New Discourses" broadcasts. Now, because this is the second episode on the same subject I have taken in, and commented on, I will repeat an observation: this BYU professor, like some other BYU professors, would likely be willing to volunteer to be a "State" Executioner al la El Commandante Che" or Mao's "Young Revolutionary Guards" and put the pistol to the back of the heads of so-called counter-revolutionaries to insure the "old ideas" perish from all memory. Unfortunately, other BYU professors would willing hold their coats. This professor's priest craft ranks right up there with the Pharisee's reasoning during Christ's time, looking for the liberator instead of the Savior. Additionally, I have little doubt he is likely a full supporter of Herbert Marcuse's "repressive tolerance" which is essentially exclusive of all other discussion. To paraphrase Marcuse; "There is no need to consider other thinking as socialism provides the only solutions to all pressing questions." The Cultural Marxists with their "CRT prone useful idiots" are not just pernicious, but wholly vile, no matter how polite their language. Just remember this: no matter how polite we will be, those of this Marxist ilk will NEVER see us as polite. Last point, intersectionality is not for justice, it is only political movement seeking to form a new majority to, as Greg often mentions, supplant the plan of salvation.
Great message! Praying for you while you bring evils to transparent. Yes, standing up for it.
It's sad to see byu professors Strain at a Nat and Swallow a campus. These erroneous thoughts are being pressed upon the future leaders Of Heavenly Father's kingdom in this, the last days. Destructive.
Maybe one of the reasons that God sent covid is so parents would be able to see what their children are being taught.
This thought came to my mind strongly when he mentioned parents hearing teachers over zoom in this video.
If something is implemented to use force then that is also part of the Adversary's plan.
Mmmmmmmmm are you sure about that? If what you are saying is doctrine then you are condemning a lot of righteous men. In one book alone you can start with Nephi (picking up Laban’s sword) continuing on to CPT Moroni. Jesus had long hair but he was not a hippie.
I am wondering if it is time for you to invite one of the BYU professors onto your show in order to promote a dialogue; hopefully a discussion between two faithful Latter-day Saints, even with differing opinions, might generate more understanding. If anyone could do it, I think it would be you Greg.
Some of these professors are teaching the philosophies of men.
"Equity" is exactly what Lucifer was campaigning for in the war in heaven.
Good video, informative and balanced…thanks
You’re welcome
Thank you for the update. Stick to your guns, truth will win out!
Wow, I went to his Twitter feed. He put a lot of energy into defending his ideology. Amazing.
To CWIC-Keep up the great work!!
Why can’t they fire these types since it doesn’t follow BYU standards?
Other than holes in CRT, in my opinion, the tone and actions in this, used by this Professor, seems to be more activist or militant than academic. I wonder at his cognitive capacity? Is this person able to be objective?
Thank you Greg for all you do to reveal, that our worth isn’t in man’s esteem and that no one can love us more and no one has grander plans for us than God. All these things are available to us all. This is where our worth is manifest and this is each of our destiny as we follow Him. All the answers to our well being and worth are present with Christ. Always love your discernment’s and gifts.
Ugh, sorry this us happening 😒
Why is this not being look at by the BYU president? Is BYU president also for CRT? Is our tithing money also funding these liberal professors?
Welcome to the world of the Ben Shapiros and Dennis Pragers... and Elder Holland. Wear it as a badge of honor, you are doing important work on your channel!
Thank you so much for the clarity and education!
"Friends, in our present moment we find all manner of divisions and subdivisions, sets and subsets, digital tribes and political identities, with more than enough hostility to go around. Might we ask ourselves if a “higher and holier” life, to use President Russell M. Nelson’s phrase, is something we could seek? When doing so, we would do well to remember that stunning period in the Book of Mormon in which those people asked and answered that question so affirmatively:
“And it came to pass that there was no contention among all the people, in all the land … because of the love of God which did dwell in the hearts of the people.
“And there were no envyings, nor strifes, … nor any manner of lasciviousness; and surely there could not be a happier people among all the people who had been created by the hand of God.
“There were no robbers, nor murderers, neither were there Lamanites, nor any manner of -ites; but they were in one, the children of Christ, and heirs to the kingdom of God.
“And how blessed were they!”
What is the key to this breakthrough in contented, happy living? It is embedded there in the text in one sentence: “The love of God … did dwell in the hearts of the people.” When the love of God sets the tone for our own lives, for our relationships to each other and ultimately our feeling for all humankind, then old distinctions, limiting labels, and artificial divisions begin to pass away, and peace increases. That is precisely what happened in our Book of Mormon example. No longer were there Lamanites, or Jacobites, or Josephites, or Zoramites. There were no “-ites” at all. The people had taken on just one transcendent identity. They were all, it says, to be known as “the children of Christ.”
Of course, we are speaking here of the first great commandment given to the human family-to love God wholeheartedly, without reservation or compromise, that is, with all our heart, might, mind, and strength. This love of God is the first great commandment in the universe. But the first great truth in the universe is that God loves us exactly that way-wholeheartedly, without reservation or compromise, with all of His heart, might, mind, and strength. And when those majestic forces from His heart and ours meet without restraint, there is a veritable explosion of spiritual, moral power. Then, as Teilhard de Chardin wrote, “for [the] second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.”
It is then, and really only then, that we can effectively keep the second great commandment in ways that are not superficial or trivial. If we love God enough to try to be fully faithful to Him, He will give us the ability, the capacity, the will, and the way to love our neighbor and ourselves. Perhaps then we will be able to say once again, “There could not be a happier people among all the people who had been created by the hand of God.” - Elder Holland, "The Greatest Possession", General Conference October 2021
Based on what I've heard today, I don't believe would feel loved if I were in his class and tasked with discovering my own whiteness. That type of thinking, whether academic or not, is not embedded in love, but in enmity. I think this professor should rethink his stance on these issues. Thank you for standing up for what is right and doing so in such a fair and eloquent manner.
The cure to racism in our culture is not anti-racism, but love. Love casts out the underlying fears and emotional issues surrounding this issue. I agree with Martin Luther King and not Abraham Kendi. One thing I do agree with is that there needs to be more action about addressing some of the disparities, but Critical Race Theory works from a faulty premise and through means that are manipulative and coercive and even violent. They also twist history in a way that attacks the good of western civilisation. They want to promote an ideology rather than really addressing the actual problems. Their definition of racism isn't even accurate, which makes the whole theory suspect as far as I'm concerned. When they have to change the plain truth of racism as one race being perceived as inferior to another race (not necessarily because of skin color but also attributed to other bodily differences, attributes, and intelligences, etc.), into the confusing definition of it being systemic policies that perpetuate racial notions (social constructions) of inequities being attributed to racial groupings. But if this is racism, I hear few people who believe such a notion. Nobody that I know is so simple minded to explain all disparities and inequities in terms of a social construct of racial groupings. That's aburd. They have a much more sophisticated look at these problems as they should. Most look at the inequities from multiple lenses rather than through one lens of race, Certainly policies and history has and still does play a role, but clearly that is not the whole story. The answer to these inequities is not segregated therapy groups and confessions of 'white privilege.' Apparently, whites are the only people in history to have ever been racists. There are so many problems with the theory and the biggest problem is their language which is cold and intellectual. You do not feel love or inspiration from their books. You feel depressed and victimised. I prefer the model that Reverend Martin Luther King and Christ taught. "Hate cannot drive out hate. Only love can do that."
"...teaching about race and whiteness". Ugh, cringe. Basically, he's got to teach about negative character traits that he attributes to an entire demographic based on ethnicity, because conflating those two things isnt the definition of legitimate racism or anything. And people like him think they fighting racism with "anti racism". It's so intellectually and logically unsound, im surprised it hasn't imploded under the crushing weight of it's own transcendent stupidity
Who’s to say many of the ‘harassing voicemail/email’ Professor Bybee received are not from his own followers posing as the other side in order to make this a bigger deal than it really is?
Why do you think the church doesn't address these issues directly? SLC is just an hour up the road from BYU. And the church owns the BYU campuses as well. It seems that they could set the record straight pretty fast and put these professors in their place. I wish I understood this.
There is a chance the church will address this issue with them again, but I am not sure they will. In my opinion, Elder Holland might have been their last warning. Since many rejected Elder Holland's talk last year, their next chastisement might be from God.
Slavery is taught only to keep the minds of black Americans enslaved! Why not teach Japanese Americans how their ancestors were treated? What about Native Americans? Why can't we move on and not be so focused on the negative things of our past? Aren't we taught to move past our negative past?
You'd think if these professors were proud of what they're doing, they would want all the publicity they could get! The fact that they're angry shows that, deep down, they know they are in the wrong.
