Pete Quinones, podcaster on Free Man Beyond the Wall and By Any Memes Necessary, writer for the Libertarian Institute, and documentary producer of The Monopoly on Violence, shares with us his thoughts, as an unbeliever, on why anyone who claims to follow Jesus should be an anarchist.

Timestamps & Starting Points:

3:35 The early Church and anarchy

• “My reading of the Bible is that every Christian should be an anarchist, and I don’t see where the whole bowing to the state, much less worship of a state that I see in the United States [comes from].” - Pete

4:40 Christians aren’t supposed to be involved in the state

• 86% of people in Congress identify as Christian

  • “Anybody who goes into politics is going into politics to get wealth and power... so, I think they would say anything in order to secure that office.” - Pete

6:11 How Christians are perceived by non-Christians

• Divided

• Pete is not upset by hypocrisy because everyone on Earth is a sinner. What disappoints him is seeing Christians wedded to and worshipping the state.

11:39 Reasons Christians Excuse Anything Israel Does

• Dispensationalism 

  • Idea that Jesus won’t come back until the Temple is rebuilt in Jerusalem

  • Christians will forgive anything as long as Israel has power so the Temple can be rebuilt 

  • is only 200 years old, compared to Christianity being 2,000 years old

  • “Israel was never a place; it was the people of God.” - Pete

  • Israel is now populated by white Europeans, and that is who we want to side with over the brown people who don’t speak English

• Ryan Dawson of the Anti-Neocon Report talks about how the Israeli government is running the US government

• “People will say, ‘Well, that’s cool.’ because it’s Israel. Nonono! That’s not how this works. We follow the teachings of Christ, and everything that the United States government and Israeli government’s doing-- that’s not how Christ told us to behave. Ever.” - Craig

• Israel is not a democracy!!

  • It’s a theocratic socialist state

  • They’re welfare queens!

  • “This is theatre.” - Pete

22:46 2020 Theater

• Elites have been buying land to live underground

  • If there was a real dangerous pandemic, they would have disappeared

  • Bill Gates didn’t even wear a mask at all

• Insurrection

  • Congresspeople hid. These are the people who send others to fight in wars that benefit them. They’re cowards.

• If the military was fighting for us, they’d attack the government

  • They’re defending the state.

28:10 FBI infiltrators

• People in the insurrection who are not being charged or even named

• Terror Factory by Trevor Aaronson

  • The FBI groomed kids to become terrorists and then arrested them

  • They don’t hate us for our freedoms. They hate us for killing their people and occupying their land.

33:35 The Constitution

• “This is actually where my rabbit hole started that led me to anarchy. It was my study of the United States Constitution.” - Craig

• “According to the United States Constitution, every war since WWI has been illegal.” - Craig

36:49 People trust cops, even when they don’t trust the government 

• Police are the worst because it’s your trusted neighbor, family member, or friend enforcing unconstitutional laws

• Police disregarding the Constitution

  • If you talk back to a cop, you’ll get thrown on the ground and arrested

  • If a cop sees you have a weapon, he’ll shoot you and/or take it from you

  • If a citizen did what cops do every day, they’d be called a criminal

  • “There’s a class of people above us in this country, and we all don’t have equal rights.” -Pete

  • “The state only protects the state. They have no interest in your rights.” -Craig

  • Duncan Lemp

    • Cops showed up at 4am to confiscate his illegal guns

    • Shot him dead through the window, dragged out his pregnant girlfriend and left her there outside
