Yeah.

And eschatology.

So you're wrapping up So most dispensationalists, I mean, it's complicated, right? So there are some who would have a two-track view that there is a dispensation for Jewish believers prior to the millennium by which they may be saved, and then there is a dispensation for Christians later.

I don't have a particular view.

It's not a reading of Scripture that I share or hold to.

But there are lots of good people who believe that.

I mean, my view is that that's not a mainstream reading of Scripture, and it's not one I hold to.

What's your position?

and you know it is interesting there's nothing i find disagreeable there and i think the future jobs roadmap has lots into it but obviously i think there's two interesting things going on here mark on the on the politics universities uk can't not talk about this right it is impossible not to talk about employment in some way what are they trying to signal do you think

I think they're trying to signal the thing that they usually try and signal, which is, you know, look what an important part of the economy we are and, you know, how bad things would be if we didn't have graduates, which remains absolutely true.

But I also think there's the wider kind of vibe of the conference, which is beyond this kind of policy report and looking at Malcolm Press, the UK president's speech happening on Thursday morning.

It's also very much a please don't do anything to us kind of plea.

You know, please don't give us any more initiatives, don't give us any more policy, definitely don't give us a big review.

We would like to own the narrative about how this is all going to fit together, which you understand why they've kind of reached that position and And I think there's no consensus in the UK about whether there should be a review and how that should be handled.

So he's sort of having to tread a bit of a line with that.

And Mark, what has caught your eye this week?

You don't think ethnic Jews, like Jew as a Jew, has any ongoing role in God's plan in the world anymore?

It means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise.

So there's this distinction between the promise and the flesh.

No one comes to the Father except through me.

And I think that that is a... a very poignant message that we as Christians are called to profess, which is the gospel of Jesus Christ, which says this is

Am I Australian?

Well, I think from the definition that I've given, if you were born elsewhere and you don't have enduring ancestry in this land, then probably not.

Does an Australian really exist? It doesn't sound like, in your view, that there is something that can be easily defined as an Australian, the same way that you could as a Japanese person or a Jewish person.

What do you mean by that?

Well, when you read the foundational documents of Islam, so the Quran, which I'd refer your listeners, we're on our YouTube channel.

Very shortly, we're going to put up a whole series of lectures from a brilliant scholar of Islam called the Reverend Dr.

Mark Dury.

So you can go there for some more details.

But the foundational documents of Islam, the Quran, the Hadiths, and the Sira, so the sayings and the biography of the Prophet Muhammad, When you look at how the basic assumptions and teachings in those documents about the nature of God, the nature of humanity, who we are, what's gone wrong, what is the solution, and then how should we organize our lives in the light of that solution, Those answers to those fundamental questions are different to the answers we give in our Judeo-Christian Western tradition, drawing as we do on the Old and New Testaments, on Greek philosophy, and on Roman theory, and then on English.

political theory.

That's not part of modern Islam.

What to you are maybe the most important elements to choosing a player you feel will ultimately play an NHL role?

I guess you look at a multiple of abilities for these young players.

Obviously, these kids today, they all have high skill.

They all can skate.

You look at the intangibles, their makeup, their background.

You've got to dig in a little bit on all these players, find out where they're from, how they've gone through life.

There are development stages at various levels.

I don't know, you tell me, does it make or break, could it make or break a player if you're teetering between
