Hello, welcome to another episode of Pristitutionalist Podcast. I am your host, Joseph M. Leonard. That's L-E-N-A-R-D. It looks French. It's not it's wonderful down and oh. Thank you for tuning in. As Graham Norton used to say on his show. Let's get on with the show. Hello, gang. How are you doing? This is a cheat segment. I am recording this as a lead-in to a standard Saturday show that is going to uh now air through the audio platforms 25 plus of Christitutionalist podcasts. What was formerly a CTP video exclusive that I feel needs to go out as a regular show. So bear that in mind when recorded, it was a video exclusive. So uh the dates it could be from a month ago, it could be from a couple months ago, so bear that in mind when you hear things regarding time frames, it may be from a while ago, so particular references may be a little dated, and this segment of cheat, right? I'm recording it, I'll be using it with several video exclusives turned Saturday episodes. Without further ado, let's get on with the show. I am wearing my, although the green screen, the uh yellow and the green and the actual godly seven-color, not the co-opted rainbow alphabet mafia six-color, you know, rainbow, the real God seven-color rainbow, Genesis 9, 16 Revelation. I'm trying to get the shirt to show properly. Four three, my uh Rabbi uh Messianic Jew, Rabbi Kurt. Uh Kurt. Oh boy, I'm drawing a blank on his last name. He's mentioned in my Christitutionist book series, as well as his taking the rainbow back movement. I'm wearing the shirt and uh, you know, a rainbow following the flood. We may not like that part of nature, that general flood, right? Floods of the Nile are what made that land so rich and valuable to be able to grow things. Floods, we may not like them, but they are indeed a God-given natural weather cycle of nature to flood lands, help renourish them so things can grow on them. Anyway, that's not the main thing I wanted to talk about. And oh, the green screen's going crazy today. Anyway, I just took out a bag of trash, put it in the trash bin, you know, getting ready for trash day later in the week, and I started thinking. And this video exclusive, I think number nine for the month of November 2025, may pop up as a CTP regular show later. It's a quasi-follow-up to CTP season two, episode 87, restoring true conservationism, reclaiming values against ideological manipulation. Right? This isn't about climatardism and planet worship and right, people devoid of real faith, engaging in mock religion of planet worship that the climatards uh use to make useful idiots for their climate gate, you know, fudging the data to pretend global warming. Man-made global warming when yes, regular natural, planetary climate change always happen the what the temperatures have gone up and down and sideways over countless years, but the man-made climate hysteria idiocy that they peddle for money laundering scheme operations. Anyway, I am a member of a real faith, Christianity, which is conservatism, which right in the root the word root conservative, conservationism, the real as part of Christianity, not planet worship, but part of our biblical duties to be proper and good stewards of the planet we are given dominion over. Right? So conservation is a part of being a Christian, to want to be good stewards. So taking out that bag of trash indeed makes me concerned at the amount eight billion people, no, don't we're not overpopulated and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. But yes, eight billion people produce a lot of trash that then gets put into the earth in slantfills. So yes, as a Christian, as one who understands we must be good stewards of the earth, yes, we need to do better if we can, where we can, in reducing our not carbon footprint, but our trash footprint. Okay? So yes, I am very happy, thankfully, now we recently replaced a washer and dryer here, had to last year, right? Got one of the nice, wonderful, fairly inexpensive, thankfully, on the disability budget. Couldn't, you know, couldn't plan and afford to fit in much, but managed to get one of the fancy combo washer dryer. So you throw the clothes in, hit the AI button. It supposedly smart enough and does seem to be to detect the kind of using cameras and weight measurements and blah blah blah. But the magic of that science, I don't fully understand it. I just know thankfully, it's been developed over the last dozen years to to work now, right? It detects the clothes, it knows the amount of detergent to dispensing, the amount of water needed, uh, a little for a light load, more for a heavier load, spinner, both for washing and drying, an electric dry rather than a gas dry. So one is done washing. There's a brief period of uh of transition, then the heat comes on and it dries, and it's smart enough to know to not overheat them. And indeed, it just knows how to dispense the right amount of fabric software. But I'm not here to try to sell you a combo washer dryer. My point getting to is thankfully purchase through wherever, and our local electric and gas companies have appliance buyback programs, right? So recycling, so all those things, right? I'm a former IT guy. This computer, if I can't afford another one, but you know, in the past, well, let me back up. This computer, the processor can't be changed, they're making them all disposable now, which is a bad thing. I don't want all these things used a couple years, and then when it comes time to replace, rather than upgrade the processor chip, keeping most of the unit intact. No, they want you to throw out the whole thing and get a complete replacement. It's easier for them to do that, and they could talk you out of more money. So thankfully, now they have trade-in options, so you don't just dispose your old laptop and them, some of them lining up in landfills. There's trade-ins. So, yes, in Michigan, this bottle is a non-carbonated beverage, so there's not a deposit on it, but most states have, right, your carbonated beverages. There's a deposit on the bottle, so there's a recycling program in place. People return the bottle to get the deposit back to then apply to the next carbonated beverage they buy. Speaking of which, I need to take a sip of my iced tea. Although, yes, a lot healthier. I do drink mostly water these days, and of course, budget-wise, can afford the flavory treats once in a while, but not all the time. But recycling of computers, recycling of appliances, recycling of bottles as and cans, as right, aluminum. I think it's um I'm a hockey fan, so uh ball aluminum, ball aluminum is a major sponsor of the Colorado Avalanche, and they talk about like 90% of all aluminum is recycled and reuse. So, no, we're not overpopulated. No, we've not anywhere close to depleting all of Earth's resources, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But as Christians, as good stewards of the planet, if we can recycle things to avoid them being in the landfill, that's something we can, could, and should do voluntarily, not at the barrel of a gun. And the more of us who pardon me, indeed voluntarily recognize our good stewardship of the earth duties and recycle as best as much as we can. We're not going to eliminate our trash and landfills, but if we could cut down the amount that goes there, that's a good thing. Recycling of things is a good thing as best and when and where possible and economically feasible, right? All these factors matter. So it's not save the planet, climate hardism, planet worship, hysteria. It's part of being a good Christian, stewardship of the earth. But I, you know, since I took that bag of trash out, and remembering back also at Substack, I have a conservationism part one and part two in relation to CTP season two, episode 87, that this is now a follow-up on. I felt it important to talk about this, right? It nothing to do with planet worship. It has to do with being, even if you're not Christian, a good human to be a good steward, to care about others, care about our neighbors, including the animals. Yes, being good stewards of the earth, not wanting to trash the earth and destroy the earth. Thinking though, not emotional, hysteric, climate, tardism, planet worship, money laundering, scheme, useful idiotism. Okay, I got I think I've rambled enough. I think I've gone like 10, 13 minutes time to tune into Pastor Sean Todd, the intersection show, whamradio.com. Today is Sunday. It is now noon. He broadcasts the intersection for a half hour every Sunday at noon. And then I'll probably be calling into my friend Derek Stones. Derek Stone, Stone Cold Sports Truth, whamradio.com every Sunday, noon 30 to 1 Eastern time. So I've got to run to get to that, but I wanted to record this, right? Being good stewards of the planet. That's a Christian thing. That's a good human thing. That's not a leftist wokeism thing. Do what we can, where we can, when we can, when it's economically bene, even if it's detrimental, if it isn't overly costly, right? You things have to be done within cost realities, though. That's that's part of life. Jesus did not say the Bible does not say money is the root of all evil. It doesn't say that. It says the love of money is the root of all evil. And I dare say that's the left and their climate terrorism, their fake man-made global warming idiocy, their climate change money laundering schemery, the love of the money, and their desire to sucker you into paying more in taxes for them to redistribute to their family, their friends, and their donors. When are you gonna wake up to that? So, yeah, be a conservationist, a good steward of the planet. Don't give in to man-made money laundering schemes. That's where the man-made part is. The left woke money laundering schemes. All right, thank you all. Take care, God again. Season two, episode 87. Please check that out. JLunnard Detroit.substack.com.
