    Not in my life, but someone I have always admired is Frederick Douglass. He had such strong convictions. He was willing to be hated by both white and black America in the heat of the civil war for standing for truth and for what right. He has many famous quotes but one of my favorites has to be, " I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence".

    One thing that struck a cord with me specifically from this lecture was the unwavering commitment to living by a moral code. The Mandalorian in it's earlier episodes had me fixated by the show for just that reason. It was the moral code of the Mandalorian's people to never show their face to another soul as part of their code. To me the people show unwavering commitment to their beliefs are ones that I find enthralling to listen to and fascinating to watch act in their day to day lives. Thank you for bringing up this point of the code and giving me words to describe my thoughts.

    One of my favorite examples of someone with great character is Isaac the son of Abraham.
    His heartfelt story is found in the "book of Jasher"chapter 23 starting around verse 60.
    In the face of death, Isaac willingly and wholeheartedly prepared himself to be a Living Sacrifice in order to please his God.

    I was once told by a professor I am a 'model' among thousands. I asked him what that meant. He shared the students in our class often look to me for approval during discussions. 'They value your opinion and support,' he said. I had no idea this was a thing. He added, 'you are the kind of person I would want to place in a room with a large group of children and watch as each one submits to imitating you.' I reflected afterward and was humbled. I do notice now how people change their behavior when I am in or enter a room. It's the same effect as if a mother is in or has entered a room. Everyone behaves. Haha! I'm guessing it's my character making this happen.

    There's a huge elephant in the room: what's a good moral code? Loki's moral code might be serving only himself - which is certainly a code one can live by but just not a good one. So while committing to a code is important, we need to listen to ourselves and see where our moral code might be wrong or where we're inconsistent and then correct our moral code so that it's correct. Without a true moral code, we can commit to falsehoods and lead others down the same path towards destruction ie. that which suffocates and ends life instead of inspiring and bringing about new life.
    Good character: King David in the Pslams.

    • @alexanderlyon
      @alexanderlyon  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's a good point but I don't think it's an elephant in the room since the list of virtues spelled out in the video are the precise ones I was using to explain it. If there's a moral code spelled out in the video, that's it. But, I didn't invent those. I looked at a cross-section of explanations out there about what good character meant and those are the ones that kept coming up: trustworthy, respectful, fair, compassionate, loyal, honest, grateful, gracious, forgiving, etc. These are clearly drawn from the Judeo-Christian tradition that assumes there is an objective standard. Loki fails all of the tests on that list. Based upon this list, I don't see how committing ourselves to falsehoods should be much of a concern. It should be a self-correcting exercise. For example, if we are truly honest and value honesty, the act of committing to falsehoods and leading others to destruction is the least likely outcome. But, the issue of King David is an interesting one. He was a man of great faith but was also a known liar, murder, and adulterer. He made many morally awful decisions. The only reason we consider him a role model is his continual pursuit of God and his repent heart. Nevertheless, the list in the video is a high standard that most humans will fall short of. It's one of the reasons I'm encouraged that graciousness and forgiveness are on the list.

      @@alexanderlyon Hello Coach Alex! I completely agree with your moral code. I did not mean to say that your video was void of a correct moral code. I wanted to highlight explicitly that it is also necessary to select a correct moral code. Every now and then, we need to take off our moral code glasses to inspect it, clean (correct) it and even celebrate it!
      You are correct about King David, it wasn't his ordinary flaws that we celebrate but that we ought to imitate his humility before God and repentance from those sins.

    I must be the only person on earth that doesn't like captain America. I find him to be extremely arrogant.

      Thanks for your comment, Stem Careers, but What!? No way! Ha. He's super humble, the opposite of arrogant. He knows what he stands for but those principles are bigger than him. He was the same way when he was punny before he took the super serum.
      But, there's great danger is getting me talking about superheroes. I could go on and on for hours about it. Ultimately, you're not really wrong either because each viewer/reader has their own valid interpretation.
      For example, I think Batman is the most overrated of them all but clearly most people disagree with me because his movies always do really well.

    I am a big Trump supporter. I think he has a better character than he is given credit for. I'd like to know your thoughts on his communication and/or character.

    • @alexanderlyon

      Hi, Batya. I've been asked many times to make videos reacting to Trump, Biden, etc. But, my channel isn't politically focused. I'll make some videos about Presidents from years ago (like the Reagan Space Shuttle video) and I have one planned for JFK's moon shot speech. But, I doing videos about politicians who are still in the game wouldn't be fun for me. Granted, your suggestion would probably make my channel triple in size but I have to stick to my roots as a teacher and focusing on current politicians would focus it too much on the person themselves and would forever change the nature of the channel. Your suggestion isn't bad, though. Thanks for the comment.
