(00:44):
I want to welcome into the programauthor, artist, commentator extraordinaire.
His name is Doug Giles, mybrother from a different mother. Doug Giles.
Welcome back to the show, sir. How are you, Jimmy?
How you doing the dog? Iam doing very very very well. I
was please when I saw your suggestedtopic of the morning, I said,
who, finally we get to talkabout something other than Joe Biden tell the

(01:07):
story. We got a girl thattold her high school says, you can't
come to high school. You're kickingor out of high school. For I
thought it was kind of an unusualreason there. Yeah, the girl's name
is Bailey Griggs and she's going orwas going to the Cramerton Christian Academy in
Estonia, North Carolina. But theold Bailey she crossed a bridge man that

(01:30):
solicited the wrath of the school marmthere at the Christian Academy. And Jimmy,
it wasn't murdered, It wasn't lyingon a regular basis. It wasn't
have an adulterous affair with a family'shousekeeper. It wasn't her only fans account.
She didn't light foxes on fire,burned down an olive, grow,
run from the law, get drunkand fall down, naked, cut off
two hundred of her enemy's four skins. And she didn't destroy ten commandment display

(01:55):
what Bailey did. Jimmy man Oh, by the way, David Moses,
Samson, Noah and Abraham did allthe aforementioned stuff. But what Bailey did
was she played her guitar at anightclub. So her job as a musician
and the only place she can digis restaurants, bars and concerts, and

(02:20):
she has her mother with her atall times. So she plays at a
bar, posted on Instagram or Facebook, and then boom, she's persona on
grata at a Christian school. Wow, I'm trying to think of the words
that come to mind other than alittle bit of legalism going on there,

(02:40):
my friend, and let him withoutsitting cast the first stone. I mean,
just unbelievable that people have this mindsetthat she played her guitar, just
practicing your musical skills that God himselfgave her, and you darkened the doors
of a dark place. We can'thave anything to do with you. What

(03:00):
do you think the school would dowith Jesus? Because the majority of the
critters that he hung out with werethe worst of the worst. We're talking
hookers, demon possessed people, taxcheats. These were notorious sinners and I'm
talking riff raff. And here thisChristian school is saying that she can't go

(03:21):
to a place where the unwashed congregate, and they said that she was gathering
in an environment Jimmy, where alcoholand drugs are used. You mean like
your Christian family's home, where yourdad's got a great stock bar and mother's
got that treasure trove of psychotropes.Where do you go? I guess you

(03:43):
go. I guess you go tothe school barm's house. And she's very
righteous and she doesn't do anything wrong. Matter of fact, she praised and
she disguises her gossip for prayer.If you look at if you look at
the picture of this school mom marmyou talk about and listen, if you're
listening right now, and your name'sKaren, I hate to disparage the name

(04:05):
that. Oh my god, shelooks like a Karen. She looks like
Dana Carvey character. Church lady.Ain't it strict that would come out and
chastise the likes of the Kardashians orSnookie or Justin Bieber for their superfluity of
naughtyess. You know what I'm talkingabout, Jimmy. I'd like to tell
all Christians that get out, getoutside of your playpen, go hang out

(04:28):
with sinners. I've had some amazingconversations and seeing God work miracles and people's
lives at a bar with a beerin my hand, just like C.
S. Lewis. Yeah, it'sit is just unbelievable that you were hitting
on it. Just that if youread the life in Times of Jesus,
which was recorded in the Bible,he did hang out with some pretty nefarious

(04:54):
characters. As a matter of fact, they're righteous of his day, the
Pharisees. They would say, howdare you hang out with Taxica? How
dare you do that on the Sabbath. He was always breaking somebody's rules and
hanging out with those sinners. Andamazing how a couple of thousand years later
there's a whole bunch of people thatprofessed that Christian name that seemingly have forgotten,

(05:15):
forgotten the one who first wore it. Yeah, and people are listening
right now. I think those schools'rules are ridiculous. I think they're arbitrary.
And here's what I hate about thatkind of legalism, in that Pharisee
spirit, it breeds in a youngChristian person and us versus them mentality as
spiritual xenophobia between we the washed andthem the unwashed cattle. And like you

(05:43):
said, man, that spirit spawnsthe same type of hellish, self righteous
garbage that saddled the Pharisees. Andlisten, those uber religious people that's written
up in the Gospels, Matthew,Mark, Luke, and John. They
were the scriptures ultimate bad guys.Not the tax collectors, not the hookers,

(06:04):
not the riff raff, the scummycrowd. It was the uber conservative
religious people that Christ said, yourfather's the devil and your synagogue is Satanic.
Yeah. I got to post thestory of I'm glad you shared it
with me. It just makes mea little bit angry teenager kicked out of
the old school. The camera CramertonChristian Academy in Gastonia remind me not to

(06:29):
go to the Kramerton Christian Academy.I got to google them. I wonder
what churchyard denomination they're affiliated with.Have you figured that one out yet?
No, I didn't see anything inmy research. But here's here's something that's
wild is that a lot of thestudents that go to that Christian academy,
they go to the concerts, sothey're sitting in the crowd and they post

(06:49):
pictures. I wonder if the lady'sgoing to start church lady's going to start
kicking them out too, because Bailey'son stage, they're in the crowd.
You know, like, are yougoing to apply that standard equally across the
board to you wrap scallion? BadChristians? Listen where people put the rules

(07:11):
and regulations, that's what breeds them, that's what breeds his apocrasy. And
uh and it never works, man, You've got to lead people with love
and vision instead of rules. Soit's not even like she's in the craziest
bar out there. They have itall ages night. I mean that's they
have the high schoolers in on occasionto see something. So it's it's wow,
unbelievable. Doug Giles always a pleasure. Uh, just talk about your

(07:34):
latest book. And I also wantto plug people to your artwork as well.
Doug Giles dot art. But talkabout the latest book, sair House
to Do and I talked Back tothe Devil. Yeah, it's Screaming for
Vengeance and the audiobook it's talk abouta screen. That thing is it's funny
and it's a it's a I thinkit's three hours of proclamations. Uh,

(07:57):
spiritual warfare against the powers of darkness, covering the wealth the walk and the
warfare that we're embroiled in. Andit's a victorious book. If you want
a sad, weepy book that depictsSatan winning and the Christians getting spanked,
I don't buy mine. But ifyou want a victorious book thirty proclamations,
you can shout at the devil withyou and your prayer group. That's the

(08:18):
ticket right there. So I talkedback to the devil. I talked back
to the devil. It's at Amazon. Go over there, click your mouth
melted plastic and buy five copies foryou buddies. You got it. Doug
Chiles, always a pleasure, DougChiles dot art and Douggiles dot org.
Also you find all things Dougs andI look a couple of those books on
Amazon. Always a good time totalk with him. And let me put
up this story. The girl getskicked out of the Christian school because she's

(08:43):
playing music at a player guitar withher mom's permission and mom's attendance at a
bar. Oh my goodness, vapors, it's that so shocked, unbelievable.
All right, there's still some legalistsout there, my friends, still some
pharisees. In the day that welive. Don't be one of them.
That's my advice to all of you. Don't be one of them. All

(09:03):
right, coming up on the program, I want to don't have time to
start a new topic here, butit's just unbelievable. Every time I look
up at the screen, I'm flippingthrough windows of different headlines and everybody's sorry.
I started laughing and coffee at thesame time. Yesterday, Jake Tapper,

(09:24):
who had been a complimentary of Jakeafter that debate. I thought Jake
canded himself. Well even Trump thoughthe did. He was fair. But
on the television, evidently, andI was watching the audio and I saw
the facial expression that when George Clooneyput out his letter yesterday, evidently Tapper
was on there and he goes,what does this mean? What does this
mean? Well, it means twothings, Jake. Well, it's all

(09:48):
happening so quick. I think,well, all of us are going what
does all this mean? What doesthis mean? But evidently tappara was kind
of animated, what does this mean? Trying to be very professional. Well,
I'm telling you what that Clooney lettermeans. And I really think this.
I think President Obama had a handin that Clooney letter. They are
best buddies, and they have admittedtoday that Obama saw the letter, so

(10:09):
that could be. I think whatit could mean is it's the first salvo
for Obama to get involved here.He doesn't want to get in the fray.
He doesn't want to be pushing Joeout. But the Clooney thing was
Clooney acting as a Biden's surrogate.Tapra was onto it. The question what
does this mean? I think Tapraknows what it might have been. I'll

(10:30):
be back, I'll be back.Six hundred KCl
