After a quick catchup about remembering 9/11, Graham Allen and I discuss the difficulties and benefits of expressing ones faith on social media. Ultimately, is anyone (Christian or not) even immune from some form of expression of belief at all on social media?

Enjoyed listening to you guys! Two good men. The world needs so many more like you!
Living in Mississippi, yes we did have ms study’s lmao.
Shut up god doesn’t like cops , you enforce laws made by man and murder those in the name of mans laws . You stupid fucks are going to have a great awakening when the rapture comes and you’re stuck on the ground with the beasts . If you aren’t in a desert living like a caveman you are a sinner ! You disappoint god daily
Personally, I don't care what particular religion a person is. I do start caring if a person brings their religion to anything that affects anyone else. I'm not interested in your religious beliefs. Christianity (or any other religion) has no place in law enforcement. Law enforcement and religion should have nothing to do with each other.
So by this video can I take it the only thing you consider " Faith " is Christianity ?
Fixing the flag in the back ground cracked me up!
Mike would you please contact me? Im from michigan and really am trying to be a police officer. I have some questions for you brother. 231-268-6112. Shoot me a text if you don't mind. God bless
Jesus christ is the way the truth and the life. Be born again and live for christ. We all need a personal savior
Love your content Mike!!!
A fantastic job..
But…
I have to punch out..
Way too many commercials partner….
How many are enough, versus not enough?
It's up to you, but as far as I can say…. Way too many…..
Maybe you can edit them out?
I love to focus, but taking the needle off of record, by inserting articles of distraction…. Then refocusing, I really enjoy taking in the conversation, without the constant interruptions…
Thanks for doing what you are doing…
You have my back partner..
Just not the 100+ commercials…
Oh love. this video
I love. Jesus, as my son in law says I have a sailors mouth, don’t mean I don’t love my lord, and I know he loves me, and I am a grandma over again, Thank u so much for this video, oh I have to repent all the time…called a conscience…lol
Don’t worry about being hated,,,They Hated Jesus, and Theystill do, But JESUS loves u..
I would love to have a debate on Christianity of Cops, this would be a very enlightening debate. The first three hundred years of the Churches existence, the early church writers and the life of the church, made it clear that one cannot be a follower of the Way (this is what they called those who followed Christ) and be a Centurion or in today's language, in law enforcement; this is just the reality of life in the Church and there is a very sound and good reason.
Now being a follower of the Way, one was never shunned who was a soldier (cops in those days) but they were not allowed to participate in the Mystery of the Body and Blood of Christ until this profession was no longer their profession.
Why? Because as a follower of Christ (The Way), one is not permitted to take even the life of their enemies, and you all know the Scriptures quoted. If a priest by accident killed another human, that priest willfully gave up their place as a pastor, and lived a life of repentance and healed through the life of the church.
Bringing Christianity into the mix is a very shaky place to be historically, and in the authentic teachings and life of the Church; before you respond, don't make assumptions about myself, it would really be a bad move on your part.
Thank y'all for this video!!!! I'm an outspoken out there Christian and proud to spread God's word!!!! I completely agree with y'all…Many Blessings to both y'all. We're all perfect in our IMPERFECTIONS!!!!! I often times feel as though I'm a bad Christian and I'm so thankful for my merciful gracious God that loves unconditionally!!!
Thanks for another great video and I have also felt the same as I am a bad Christian Catholic, but I try to be the best I can everyday. Keep the videos coming and stay safe.
I was only 4 but I remember watching the news coverage of the Twin Towers in my parent's kitchen on a CRT TV.
All pigs should be burned alive. Fuck cops
I see you still have that "Thin Blue Line" Flag! As I have posted on your channel before it is 100% against the UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18-Part I. CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE-CHAPTER 33 – EMBLEMS, INSIGNIA, AND NAMES § 700-Desecration of the flag of the United States-Specifically Subsection (a)(1) – “Whoever knowingly mutilates, defaces, physically defiles, burns, maintains on the floor or ground, or tramples upon any flag of the United States shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for not more than one year, or both.â€
Also 4 U.S. Code § 8 – Respect for flag – No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Also (g) The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature. Also (i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. At last (k) The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.
You should be Ashamed of yourself for this Disfigurement! This is no different then someone burning the Flag. It is a disgrace and insulting to what I have served for and others in my family have died for to defend. It shows that you are a Hypocrite to Laws and Codes You "Defend" and the Constitution you swore to up hold. You REALLY should consider taking that Abomination down!
I enjoyed this very much, just honest thoughts and feelings. Thank you.
Great talk guys! Good Bless you both. Stay safe.

Can't be a Christian and a Trump supporter? They must not be Baptist.
A church cant be any where its not the building its the people you are their
God bless America
WE THE PEOPLE
This is BY FAR my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE video! Rock on with your boldness of Faith, it's a RELATIONSHIP not a list of do's and don't. We don't need to shove it down people's throat, we need to show love. Great Job Mike & Graham!!! Be Bold Guys! God Bless Ya Big!💜
28:29 – You can't "just go read the bible" to determine what's christian or not. That's why we have 1000 (literally) denominations of Christianity. Interpretations of written texts vary, especially if the texts are very old and authors aren't around anymore.
27:12 – Why is faith worth having? And what do you MEAN when you say faith? Do you mean trust? Or belief?
Faith is the evidence people give for when they don't have any other evidence to believe something (generally how it's used / discussed as even if not in the same words). If they had good/compelling evidence or reasons, they'd give those instead of faith….
Why would you believe something without evidence / reason?
17:58 – Maybe you actually DID do it well, and are being better at speaking than you realize? (even for that one video)
Writing off your own success, and attributing it to something that has no proof/evidence that it even exists belittles your own achievements. It also reinforces the idea that when somebody is bad at something, that they can NEVER become good at it and learn. This is a HORRIBLE thing to teach….
Weird how seemingly intelligent functioning adults can believe in fairy tales with zero evidence.
you guys rock god bless you both ! thank you ! Ky
I dont believe in a fucking thing. It's pointless it does nothing and waste to much time and everything. I'm not insane I just am not so narrow minded that i need everything to fit in neat little boxes. In my eyes there is an order in chaos it's easy to understand for me. As far as Christianity and all that shit I stopped believing in stories and fairy tails when i grew up. Plus if your imaginary friend says your better then me for believing in him i think that makes your insane
I just can't get passed the high jacked American flag. It's hard to imagine how you can justify selfishly taking the symbol of this great country and desecrate it by altering it for selfish motives. And then making it your backdrop like a trophy you killed and stuffed. Maybe daycares could also high jack the flag and change the stars into little colorful handprint smudges, cause everyone loves little kids right? It detracts from any good you do. Your projecting onto society that you and your cop buddies are on a pedistal in our society so we are forced to look up to you. What next a cop on a cross, depicting your crucifixion and stransitioning to the overseers of all that is good? Could you please explain your reasoning to desecrate our flag. A lot of us served in many forms of service to this country on foreign land. To look across the water and see your blue line on the American flag makes me think America is under siege by pirates who are taking over. Maybe nothing to you, I've spoken to many people about this even a cop who believes cops should come up with something else, use your imagination not the American flag. We drape this great flag over the coffins of fallen American soldiers, it has its own ceremony, allways show the the utmost respect. When in dought show respect.

I initially posted this under my youtube channel's account as a reply. Scrolling through the comments, I saw this said enough that I need to say it again. I myself am agnostic.
That said, people that imply, or blatantly state, that only stupid people are religious. Let me give you a little factoid here friends:
Albert Einstein – Jewish, faithful to the god of Abraham
Christopher Langan (formerly highest IQ in the world) – Christian
Abdessellam Jelloul (Current highest IQ ever recorded) – Christian
Charles f*cking Darwin (Notably, you could connect this more to his time) – Christian
Kenneth Farrel (Listed as one of the top 16 smartest people living by business insider 2012) – Devout Christian
Pump the breaks on the whole "smart people aren't religious" philosophy.
Hey @Mike The Cop , I just found your channel and I was wondering if you could put a video together on citizen's arrest? I'd be super interested on the topic, in regards to citizen on citizen and in the horrible situation that a citizen needed to arrest an officer of the law. Love your channel and your office, cheers
Seriously thought it said “Being bald about faith†at first. I laughed and then became disappointed when I looked again. Missed wordplay opportunity.
Mike, could you do a video on how being a cop impacts your family? 🙂or how family support impacts or helps someone who is a cop. 😉
Awesome video. You guys are the best.
I LOVE THIS, I don't think this topic needs a new channel. you are mikethecop so let the channel be who you are!!!!
Goodnight gentleman I'll pick this up tomorrow it's always an interesting ones I fall asleep on
Soml was curious in Mike's opinion. Soml learned he either didn't care about Mike's religious opinions or he just didn't feel like watching this content. Once Soml realized this, instead of insulting Mike or the channel, Soml watched something else.
Don't be a dick. Be like Soml.
