Ep 668 | No, Jesus Didn’t Die to Pay for Student Loans

Released August 29, 2022 by Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey

 

Today we're discussing Biden's student loan debt plan and the progressive Christian argument about its morality. Many of these professing Christians have made the argument that the government "forgiving" student loan debt is akin to Jesus paying for our sins, but is this a fair comparison? We explain why it's not and give the biblical evidence to prove it. Then, last week, Libs of TikTok released audio from a phone call in which Children's National Hospital admitted to performing "gender-affirming" hysterectomies on minors 16 years old and younger. We discuss the backlash from mainstream media and her ban from Twitter in the aftermath. Then, we'll react to Lizzo's VMA acceptance speech, in which she claimed to be part of the "oppressed."
