Hello everybody. I'm Skip Alzheimer. Welcome to the AV Geeks Lunchtime streaming show where we watch old 16mimeter films. And uh that little clip intro of course was from this amazing uh film that I found in National Archives called New Eyes, New Ears. And it was a I don't know if it was subsidized by the US government, but it was basically uh talking to Japanese audiences about um how 16 millimeter films can help educate and disseminate information to the general population. And I will tell you what else does puppets. Puppets uh get the information out. Uh and this one is stop motion puppets. So, it's not marionettes. So, it's not hoja, but uh it does have that vibe. Here's the parable of the good Samaritan. Enjoy. [Music] and he turned unto Italy. Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see. For I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see and have not seen them, and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them. And behold, A certain lawyer stood up and tempted him, saying, "Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" He said unto him, "What is written in the law? How readest thou?" And he answering said, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind, and thy neighbor as thyself." [Music] And he said unto him, "Thou hast answered right. This do and thou shalt live. But he willing to justify himself said unto Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" And Jesus answering said, "A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jedo. Heat. Heat. A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among thieves. which stripped him of his railings and wounded him. and departed, leaving him half dead. [Music] And by chance there came down a certain priest that way. And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. And likewise a Levite when he was at the place. [Music] came and looked on him and passed by on the other side. [Music] But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was, and when he saw him, he had compassion on [Music] and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] and brought him to an inn and took care of him. And on the tomorrow when he departed, he took out two pence and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him, and whatsoever thou spendest more, When I come again, I will repay thee. Which now of these three thinkst thou? Was neighbor unto him that fell among the thieves? And he said, he that showed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, "Go and do thou likewise. [Music] So that's two uh parable films that we have that are done with puppets. Uh the other one was the parable of the prodigal son which was done with marionets and was far more animated than uh what we just saw. It it does feel like they spent all the time and energy in making the the models and and the puppets, not so much animating them. Um, and so, you know, beyond the the message of the film, it's like, does the fact that you're using just barely animated stopotion puppets help the message or does it hurt the message? It's like, it's beautiful, but it's also like, you know, kids, if if this is made for kids, like, they're just going to sit there and be like, what's I don't understand what's happening. Um certainly kids nowadays with very short attention spans. But um and that's what we do here at Age Geeks is we needle and pick apart uh these educational films that were made by uh people who had were more uh talented than us. Um but yeah, that's uh one of my faults. Uh this next film is interesting. It's uh about Chinese tin miners in Malaysia. Enjoy. [Music] Over 20 years ago, a vicious guerilla war was fought in British Malaya and in its tinrich Kinta Valley. The war was to last 10 years. To protect the Chinese of this multi-racial land from the war's violence, new villages were built. In the hope also that they would become towns of the future. >> Chendron New Village was established in 1954. [Music] Peace eventually came in 1958 and the independent nation of Malaysia composed of Chinese, Indian and Malay people was born. Chendron survived. Its Chinese wanted it to live and prosper. Today, almost 20 years later, there are many changes and many more people. Most of its Chinese regard Malaysia as their country and Chundrang their home. This is the story of one Chundrang family, Achao and his oldest son, Afo. [Music] studying late into the night is 16-year-old Afo. His teacher calls him a perfect student. He is first in his high school class, certain to succeed in his ambition to be a medical doctor. He won't be the first from Chendrong to become a doctor. A few years ago, one of its students became a doctor and now practices medicine in the United States. A Chinese family is a corporate affair. Work is their philosophy. Work produces material comfort. And this is the Chinese goal. Everyone works. Acha the father cycles 8 miles from Chendron to the iron ship as the tin dredges are called. He has worked 15 years on the dredge doing semi-technical work. He works 7 days a week earning the equivalent of 55 American dollars a month. As the new shift begins, a siren warns that the machinery is about to start. [Music] the European-owned dredge. is gradually becoming Malayanized operated by Malays, Chinese and Indians. Kinta Valley has been producing tin for over a century and is now being dredged for the third time. How much tinor remains in the valley floor isn't known. It is estimated by some experts that there will be tin from this valley for many decades to come. [Music] Luong is an affectionate mother, >> particularly to her youngest son. >> She would like to have more time with him, but she knows she must work and contribute her earnings to the family plan. [Music] Leaving a crying child behind isn't easy for a mother, but she knows the boy must learn to curb his crying and do his part. [Music] Luong is strong in character and also strong physically. She works in an open-faced tin mine in temperatures of 100° and high humidity. [Music] Like her husband, Luong works 7 days a week, earning the equivalent of one American dollar a day. Before mining can be started, the jungle must be cleared. push. >> Luong's employer is a Chinese company which operates another mine nearby where she works occasionally. The tinbearing soil is mined hydraulically. The mud and water are pumped through huge pipes and slooes and over washboards that catch the heavy tin ore. [Music] Achow plans. the family's future. With savings accumulated over the years, he bought 7 acres of rubber lands. This brings a monthly income of the equivalent of 65 American dollars. Government provides Malay language education. But Acha feels that English medium schooling gives his children better opportunities. He sends his children to English language schools. This is expensive. It takes all the earnings of his rubber lands. >> 15-year-old Yukin didn't want to continue school, so she was given the responsibility and the authority to run the household. [Music] She directs and bosses the younger children in the family. [Music] >> Yukin also does the marketing. In the evening, Yukin will cook the family meal. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] That's cute. [Music] AFO returns from school in Batugaja in the afternoon. [Music] >> His responsibility to the family is to succeed in his education. >> He works hard at this. [Music] Like other outgoing and happy boys, Afo enjoys sports. >> Basketball is his favorite sport, as it is for most Chinese. Ao is a good player. [Music] [Music] After dinner, Afo studies until almost midnight. His ambition is to be a doctor because he wants to help people and to repay his parents for their hard work and sacrifice. Even though he is of a Chinese family, Malaysia is his country. He hopes to find equal opportunity in this land of many races. [Music] Fascinating. Um, yeah, what a uh tumultuous history uh in Malaysia. Um, it was not great. Uh, let's return back to the United States. And this film features a celebrity when he was younger. And I am going to look to see if it actually shows up on his IMDb. Let's see. I've shown another film that he was in when he was a kid. Let's go back. No, does not list it at all. Um, and not the other one either. All right. Well, this is the deal. So, this is a premiere of a film featuring a well-known celebrity um before he was famous. And this suffers from some water damage at the beginning. So, you'll see like some crackle in the in the frame. Eventually, it goes away. So why is it always me? [Music] Hey, >> what are you doing? That's mine. >> It's mine. It was just laying there. >> I just put it down. You know it's mine. Now give me the book. >> Mrs. Brown. Mike's taking my book. >> What? >> All right, Mike. Give Brian back his book and sit down. >> Why is it always me? What about him? I want that book, you liar. >> Give Brian his book right now. >> Here. >> I've had it with your temper. You may not come back into this library until I've had a note from your parents. Oh, who cares? I hate this place. [Music] [Music] Well, Mike, it looks like it happened again. You got into trouble. >> I get blamed for everything. I can't help it. Things just happened to me. It looks like things happened to you because you haven't learned how to solve your problems. >> Problems? What problems? I don't have any problems. Those stupid kids and teachers would give me problems. If it wasn't for them, my life would be just great. >> Okay, they give you a problem. But you sure didn't solve it in the way that helps you. Mike, you just aren't making good decisions. You know, thinking of what might happen and looking for answers. It looks like learning some problem-solving steps could help you deal with these people. >> Like what, for instance? Like today in the library, fighting with Brian didn't help you. He may have been wrong in taking that book, but you quickly decided to fight over it. You didn't think of any other ways to solve that problem. >> Well, I just don't think of anything else. When I get mad, I lose control. >> That's why it's important to take time and to learn the steps in problem solving and use them instead of automatically giving up or fighting. >> Wait a minute. I thought solving your problems depended on other things. I know what you need to solve your problems. Emily, that was really an excellent report. Very well organized. Very good indeed. Now we'll have Mike's report. Mike, you are ready for your report, aren't you? Oh, well to tell you the truth. >> Fire alarm. Everybody against the wall. Single file. We'll have Mike's report tomorrow. >> That's what you need to solve your problem. Lots of luck. >> Of course, luck is only one way to solve a problem. I found when you have a problem with another person, the person who wins is the stronger or tougher one. This will solve a problem. Hey, you [Music] are [Music] [Music] I have a problem, friend. You have a book I need for a report. Hey, you don't want me to miss my report, do you? No, >> sir. Here. Uh, take my book, and I got some notes on it, too. I hope they help you. >> We'll see about that. That's what you need to solve your problems. Muscles. And there's one other way. You need to be real smart to solve your problems. [Music] Good. The computer finally agrees with my solution. How to get along with my little sister. Good boy. That's how to solve your problems. You got to be real smart. Those dreams never come true. I'm not lucky, tough, or smart enough to solve my problems. >> Hold on, Mike. You're making a big mistake. You don't need to depend on those things to solve your problems. The best way to solve them is by dividing them into five steps. Just like a road map, you can use these steps to find an answer. >> What are the steps? >> Just look around. [Music] >> Identify the problem. >> Right? That's the first step. Find out exactly what the problem is. Find out all the facts and reasons for the problem. [Music] Describe the possibilities. >> Right. Step number two. Decide what are the different ways you might be able to solve the problem and use your imagination. The more ideas you come up with to possibly solve the problem, the better. [Music] >> Number three, evaluate your ideas. >> Exactly. Take each idea you've come up with and think what would happen if you did it. Will the result help you or hurt you? [Music] Number four, act out a plan. >> After you've evaluated all the possibilities, pick out the one that you think serves you best. Then turn it into the answer that you can act on and use it. >> Learn. >> Yep. That's the final step. Find out if your answer was the best and learn from the experience. If it didn't work, go back and try another idea. ideal. I don't get it. >> Well, it's the first letter of the five steps we've just learned. Remember, identify, describe, evaluate, act, and learn. It's the ideal way to solve problems. Any problems. >> Okay. The ideal way. How do I make it work? >> Think back about the fight in the library. You chose to fight without even thinking of doing something else. Think you can come up with a better idea? Yeah, I guess. >> Okay, let's go back over that fight and see how problem solving might have helped you. [Music] >> What are you doing? That's mine. >> It's mine. It was just laying there, >> you know. Wait a second. Before I start yelling, let me think. What was that word for solving problems? Oh, yeah. Ideal. First step is to identify the problem. Well, we both want the same book. How can I get to use a book without getting in trouble? All right. The second step is decide what I might do about the book. H I can fight for it. I could flip a coin for it and let the winner have it. Or I can share the book and let him have it and look for another. Let me think about these ideas. The fighting is out. I just get into more trouble. I don't want to flip a coin because I might lose and I really want to use that book. While I could share it, there's still enough time for us to both read it. That will work. The fourth step is to act out the plan. I know. I'll tell you both want to use the book and offer to share it. Let's see what happens. >> Uh, hey Brian. It looks like we both want the same book on the Civil War, huh? I guess you're doing the same report I am. >> Yeah. >> Uh, we still got time before the report's due. Maybe we could share it. >> I suppose. >> Okay. You take it first and I'll take it next. >> I'll give it to you after school Friday. Thanks. [Music] >> It works. Okay, I get the picture. Helps to think things out before you act and go through the steps of problem solving. But can you guarantee this will work? >> No. But following those steps will help you solve more problems and in better ways. Most problems you solve won't fall into five steps, but you can still use them to get answers. >> Thanks a lot for teaching me the steps. I'll try to remember them next time I get in trouble at school. I guess I did do a lot of dumb things because I didn't think. Mike, school isn't the only place that problem solving can help you. It can help you at home, too. Whenever you get upset, remember what you've learned. Oh, you do get upset at home sometimes, don't you? >> Upset? Oh, brother, do I get upset? But that problem solving stuff won't work with my parents. They're impossible. Always treating me like a little kid. Every solve problems with them. Just ends up in an argument. I got to go. Hi, Dad. >> Hi. How was school? >> Fine, but some kids start a fight with me in school today, and you have to sign a note. >> It's always somebody else. They always start a fight with you. >> Yeah, I can't help it. Oh, can I go over to Scott's house for a while? Me and a couple friends are going to meet there, then we're going to go bowling. >> Scott's house? I don't know. Maybe you ought to stay home tonight. You see, >> there you go again. It's always no. You never let me do anything. >> Look, I don't want to hear any more back talk from you. >> How you expect me to grow up if you treat me like a little kid? Oh, you never listen to me anyway. Oh, what do you I'm getting out of here. See, I hope you're satisfied. So much for your problem solving. >> Well, you sure do have a lot of problems with your dad. You saw what happened. >> But Mike, you didn't use any of the steps in problem solving. You got angry and lost control. Just like in the library. >> You're so smart. You got all the answers. So, you tell me what to do. >> How about keeping cool and take this one step at a time. Start again at the first step. Identify the problem. You never checked out why he was going to say no, did you? >> No. I don't know. He never told me. >> You never found out. Mike, you can't solve the problem if you don't understand the reason. What chance you had of finding out was gone when you started to yell. You never finished the first step. >> Yeah, I guess you're right. Can't remember the last time I solved a problem with my dad by yelling. But what else can I do? >> After telling him in a calm voice what you want, check out his feelings and reasons. If you listen to him, he might listen to you. Then think of some ideas that might work. Evaluate them and pick the best one. Check it out with your dad. You might be surprised. >> That makes sense. One more try. >> Uh, hey, Dad. I'm sorry he started yelling at you. I think there's a misunderstanding and I want to check it out. All right. >> What do you want now? >> Well, I really do want to go over to Scott's house and meet with the guys. They're going to leave in a couple minutes. So, what do you think? >> I said no. I don't want you coming home that far by yourself. >> Oh, you don't want me walking home alone? Is that it? >> Yes. That's why you can't go. >> I have an idea. What if I have Scott's dad drive me home? Then I wouldn't be walking home alone. >> Well, what if he says no? What if he can't do it? >> I'll talk to Scott and get back to you. I'm sure his dad won't mind. >> Okay, we'll see then. Didn't you like the roller coaster? >> Yeah, when the lights went off. >> Jenny, can I use the phone? It's real important. >> Oh, that was great. I didn't I didn't like the >> Can I please use a phone, Jenny? >> Really? >> Why is it always me? >> No one ever said problem solving was easy, Mike. It's just better. Heat. Heat. [Music] How do you [Music] John Cusack. Yes, some of you recognized him. Um, some of you came close. Yes, that was his early work. That and he was also in Uncle Jim's Dairy Farm, third edition. Um, and uh, yeah, early acting not credited uh, in IMDb. it is uh that platform is wildly inconsistent. Uh I used to be able to edit it um and add notes but at some point when they got acquired by Amazon then they kind of went to crap and um there was a lot of misinformation that was put up there especially about educational films. There's weird things on there. Uh all right what do we got? What do we got? All right. So this film is fascinating. Um, and I I love a niche film. I love showing a film that's made for a very specific audience. And this film is made for people who are witnessing um for Jesus in other people's homes. So they do a home visit, then they, you know, read some scripture and talk about and so this is similar to what um I think Jehovah Jehovah's Witnesses do, uh Mormons do, but this is for more generic Protestants uh to witness. And this film is specifically addressing objections in witnessing. So like it's made to show to people who are going to go into households and talk about Jesus, but it's on how to cope with the u objections that they get. And so this is almost this is a sales film really. What this is is like you know what sales techniques can you use? And I wouldn't be surprised if the people who did this have a background in sales. like what are ways that you can get your point across when you have objections uh so that they will accept Jesus as their personal savior or they will buy that vacuum cleaner that you're selling. And this is part one. So there's a part two somewhere that I haven't found yet. So here it is. Answering objections and witnessing part one. Oh, [Music] hey. [Music] Some of the biggest hypocrites I know are church members. I just don't have the kind of feeling I want to have. I don't think I'm such a bad guy. Sound vaguely familiar. Ever had to answer one of these objections while trying to witness to a lost person? Most everyone who witnesses has. But God's word has the answer to these objections. This is Mr. Gregory Walker. Greg, will you tell us how you make your livelihood? By now, you've guessed it. I'm an actor in television and motion pictures. I make my living working in front of this equipment. With your help, we want to demonstrate how to use the Bible in answering some pretty tough objections that a witness for the Lord is have to run into. I'd be very happy to have a part in this presentation. I'll do my best. In each demonstration interview, only a portion of the entire soul-winning effort will be presented. Neither the beginning nor the ending is included. You will see just that portion where the specific objection is answered. Now, Mr. Walcott is going to show you one way to meet the first objection, that of Fred Baxter. So, let's join them in the living room of Mr. Baxter's home. Gregory Walcott has just emphasized the fact that all men are sinners when Mr. Baxter says, "Mr. Woolcap, one of the main reasons I have never accepted Christ is because some of the biggest hypocrites I know are church members. What's more, I can name your names, too. It's probably true there are church members who are not saved. But are you going to let them stand between you and eternal life? I don't think so. And God's word can help us see just what's involved here. >> All right. I'm willing to listen. >> Good. The Bible tells us that we are to have Christ as our standard and not men. In 1 Peter 2:21 it says, "For even here unto were ye called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps." >> Well, I'd say the hypocrites in the church don't believe too much in that scripture. >> Well, they may not, but all of us will have to live with the truth. And we find the truth in Acts 17:31 which points out that Jesus is to be our model and standard of righteousness and the judgment. Listen. Because he hath appointed a day in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained, whereof he hath given assurance unto all men in that he hath raised him from the dead. This verse means that at the judgment, the life you have lived will be compared to the life Jesus lived. I know that. But I still say I do not want to belong to a church with hypocrites in it. And I know what I'm talking about. >> I'm sorry to hear you say this, Mr. Baxter. You're letting church members you judge to be hypocrites be a real stumbling block in your own salvation. But do you like being in the same church with them? Let me read what the Bible has to say about judging others. Matthew [Applause] 7 verses 1 and two. It says, "Judge not that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged, and with what measure ye meet, it shall be measured unto you again." >> Mr. W cut. Look, I I know that some of your church members are not living Christian lives. Now, I can tell that without passing judgment on, Mr. Baxter, a man's relationship to God is an individual matter. What other people do or don't do will have no effect on your own accountability to God. Well, when you put it that way, I I'll have to agree with you. >> Romans 14:12, it says, "So then, every one of us shall give an account of himself to God." Who does God say you will give an account of here? >> Myself. >> And not the hypocrites. Then >> Mr. Baxter, let me ask you a question. Are you ready to give an account of yourself to God? >> May I? >> So then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God. The Bible is saying then that that I am responsible to God regardless of other influences. That's right. And a time will come when you will stand before the judgment bar of God to answer for your sins. But when you put your faith in Jesus Christ, his death on the cross atones for all your sins. Not everyone will react the same as Mr. Baxter did, but the scriptures used by Mr. Walcott will set out for anyone what the Bible has to say about the problem. In addition, there are other points that Mr. Walcott could have made. Unfortunately, not all church members are saved. And after a person is saved, he does not become perfect. The individual and the circumstances have a lot to do with just how a soul winner will answer any objection. It's necessary to keep this important factor in mind. Let's take the second example. Brad Simpson. Gregory Walcott has just finished presenting the plan of salvation and is asking the vital question. >> Mr. Simpson, as best you know how, would you accept Jesus Christ to be your personal savior and lord now? >> Well, I guess I would if I could if I could just feel something, but but I haven't got the right kind of feeling that I want to have before I before I trust him. Mr. Simpson. Many lost people have gone into eternity without God. Because they were waiting for some unusual kind of feeling. There are feelings you will have before you're saved. And after salvation, there'll be other feelings, but these feelings are different. Could you be a little more specific? Let me put it this way. Before you're saved, you'll have the feeling of sorrow and repentance of sin. Isaiah 55:7 says, "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." I I realize I've sinned, but I just don't have an unusual feeling about trusting Jesus. In John 1:12, we read, "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." It's just not possible to have the feeling of one of God's sons until you have received God in the person of Jesus Christ. >> I I I just don't know. After you have received Christ to be your Lord and Savior, then you'll know the joy of being a follower of Christ. Listen in First Peter 1:8 it says, "Whom having not seen ye love, in whom though now ye see him, not yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory." But I I still believe I should have some sort of feeling. I agree with you. And the feeling you should have is one of oughtness. Oddness. By that I mean if if in your heart you have a a tugging that says you ought to trust Jesus. Now that's the Holy Spirit speaking to you. How can I know that? Revelation 3:20 expresses God's concern for you so wonderfully. Listen. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come into him and will suck with him and he with me. I think I see what you mean. If you remember, you saw a third man, Gordon Clemens. By this world's standards, Mr. Clemens is a good man. By God's standards, he's a lost man. Mr. Clemens knows the reputation that he enjoys in the community and believes himself to be a good man. Mr. Walcott has just asked him the question, how many people in the world are sinners? I uh I know the point you're trying to make, but I don't think I'm such a bad guy. I pay my debts. I contribute generously to civic causes. I try to give an honest day's work. And I uh consider myself to be a fair family man. Mr. Clemens, I agree. I happen to know that you're one of the most respected men in this community. >> Would you mind if I read from the Bible what it says about several outstanding biblical characters? Of course not. Go right ahead. >> One night, one of the finest Jewish rulers and leaders came to talk to Jesus. In John 3:6 and 7, Jesus said to him, "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again." As good as this man was, Jesus told him he needed to be born again. In other words, Jesus told him that he needed a spiritual birth. He just wasn't acceptable as he was. What do you mean when you say he wasn't acceptable? >> He wasn't acceptable to God. He was an unsaved sinner and as such, he could not enter the kingdom of heaven. >> Well, that doesn't seem right to me. Perhaps the greatest missionary of all time was the Apostle Paul. Here is his statement concerning his own goodness. It's found in Philippians 3:8-9. Go ahead. I want to hear it. Paul says, "I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things and do count them but refugees, that I may win Christ, and be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God, by faith, I don't understand that. What does he mean? >> Paul is saying here that his own goodness is judged by the law. He knows he's broken God's law. But the goodness that he is depending on comes from God by faith. In other words, Paul's acceptability is based on faith in Christ and not his own goodness. >> That makes sense. I guess >> it certainly does. Now, we've seen what the Bible has said about two good men. Let's see what it says about all men everywhere. In Luke 16:15, it says, "Ye are they which justify yourselves before men, but God knoweth your hearts. For that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God." And >> now you're getting personal. On the contrary, I'm trying to show you how the Bible can help you find Jesus to be your savior and lord. Salvation is the most wonderful gift God has for us. But to become yours, it must be accepted. Titus 3:5 says, "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us. by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost. >> How do a man's good deeds affect his salvation? Then tell me that. Ephesians answers your question. Listen. Ephesians 2:8-9. For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves. It is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. For by grace are ye saved, through faith. Thank you, Greg, for helping show one way to answer some of the objections soul winners must face. Well, I'm glad you said one way. Every situation is different, just as every individual is different. You must always bear this in mind and not necessarily follow the exact patterns implied in our demonstrations. >> Right? The main value of these demonstrations is in pointing direction and suggesting scriptures. And your part begins now. Scripture references need to be learned, marked in your Bible. Lost people need the personal witness of someone who has been born again. Will you be that person? All right, that was weird and niche um because it's not made to procilitize people into Christianity. It is made for people who are trying to procilitize. So, it's a subtle little little thing here. Um, if you're looking for an anecdote for this, and in the comments it seems like there were, uh, I would recommend watching the Mails Brothers documentary Salesman, which is a wonderful documentary about Bible salesmen in the 60s. It is amazing. It's really something. And it kind of captures you know what what is I mean this is so like I was talking about you know that this previous film was kind of a sales film right it's a sales pitch film how to how do you engage with people and sell them on the concept of Christianity um salesman is literally how do people sell uh people on buying Bibles and uh it is not very Christian. I'm just going to say that. But it's really it's fascinating to look at at humans human character and flaws and all that stuff. So totally recommend that film. Thanks for watching today. Very much appreciate your eyeballs. Uh and we'll be back again tomorrow. We have been scanning a bunch of stuff and there's lots of crazy things. I what's happening is like in the morning I scan films. In the in the afternoon, I go with interns or other people and we start moving films back into our film vault and that's where I pull titles where I'm like, I don't know what this is. I don't know what this is. And then we scan them in the morning and then make them available for you to watch. So, we're we're not scanning directly and premiering it as as we're scanning, but you know, it's a couple hours difference. Uh, and we have seen some amazing things. So, thank you for being there for us. Uh Richie Rich uh or Richie Rugs boy. Um thank you so much for your $10 donation. He donated via the super chat or the super thanks button and um yeah very uh that supports us that supports paying for uh rent on all these storage units. Um but also just makes us feel good and all your comments and I've seen lots of new names showing up in the comments. to thank you for joining us. Um, we don't always show a bunch of films about Christianity, but sometimes we do. Um, you know, I hope today was a subtle mix of different things and tomorrow will also be a subtle mix of different things. So, thanks for joining us and we will see you tomorrow. Take care everybody. Bye.
