What, do you suppose, is the one thing that the seemingly fearless, unemotional killing machine known as The Terminator is secretly terrified of? The Terminator is terrified of being terminated. Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has called anyone who believes in an afterlife a LIAR, and has confessed to his own mortal fear of his own mortality. Alfonzo Rachel and Bill Whittle give serious thought to the topic of Life, Death and Arnold.

The types of questions that were raised in this episode cannot be answered from within our physical realm of existence.
However, there is a question that lies right on the boundary between the physical and metaphysical universes which we “may” be able to answer. And the answer to that question is the answer to everything.
What I’m referring to is the question: Do we have free will? If we are purely physical beings, then every thought, every action, every choice we make is determined by the physical interactions of all the molecules, atoms and electrons that make up our physical bodies and we do not have free will.
However, if we do have free will, then that necessarily means that there is a non-physical component to our being. A component that is not constrained by the laws of Physics. It is, therefore, a supernatural component beyond the physical realm. I would call that a soul.
Free will, therefore, implies a non-physical realm of existence. It implies an after life and super-natural beings. We don’t have to die and find out in the here-after. All we have to do is determine if, indeed, we have free will.
Admittedly, this is not an easy question to answer, either. But it’s “almost” possible.
There’s a bit of a problem with Christians actively believing/teaching in ‘The Big Bang Theory’…It is a theory solely from an Atheist world view. It’s one of the many ways in which the ‘god’ (Satan) of this world, has blinded the minds of the world (2 Corinthians 4:4). Satan diminishes our view of God’s Sovereignty and His unlimited Eternal Power.
Dr. Jason Lisle of Biblical Science Institute has done many talks on the subject, and IMHO, it’s worth learning more about. You may have seen Jason in an interview with The Babylon Bee. Here: https://rumble.com/vgi5h7-christian-astrophysicist-explains-young-earth-the-jason-lisle-interview.html
While I don’t like to suggest viewing ANYTHING from YouTube, his Rumble channel is relatively new…however, I do believe it’s important that if one is going to teach of God’s Word, one should be fully equip with knowledge of what His Word actually tells us, and compare it to what we are being taught by secular (Worldly) minded people.
So there are a few links from the dreaded BeastTube below…(I’ll repent and ask God forgiveness later…lol…semi-joking)

Great discussion! I liked it because you mixed religion, science, history, astronomy, fact, informed opinion, personal history, and more — it was about Life! Thank you gentlemen!
The man who believes in nothing will believe in anything. This is the same guy who snarled, “Screw your freedom!” over anyone who didn’t want to get the Clot Shot to “protect” from the Fauci Flu.
Yeah I can’t forgive him for that. He was an awful governor, too. I didn’t even listen to this episode.
Spot on with both of your comments, fellas. Thank you for this!
Zo is such a happy warrior. He really inspires me.
