1
What's it like to be a Christian in an overwhelmingly Muslim country here?
2
Well, Christians here in Jordan have always felt really one and the same with the Muslims in Jordan.
3
and it goes back thousands of years really Tucker.
4
So it's always felt like we're really one in the same.
5
Islam is very much an integral part of our culture. As Christians here.
6
Yeah, we feel very comfortable.
7
As Christians here.
8
As Christians, absolutely.
9
So you went to school, a number of very prominent schools in the United States.
10
You spent a lot of time living in the US, so that most Americans are going to be surprised to hear that. Of course.
11
I mean, a lot of my American friends, when I first met them, they were surprised that I'm Christian from Enjoy them.
12
And I'm like, what do you mean?
13
I mean, this is where Christianity started, right?
14
This is, we are the ancient Christians.
15
Islam is an integral part of the culture for Christians here.
16
What does that mean?
17
Well, look, the faith traditions are so similar.
18
You know, if you look at the Quran, for example, the Quran is Jesus was mentioned 25 + times in the Quran.
19
And he was mentioned under different words, different names.
20
So, Isa is what his name is in Arabic.
21
the word of God.
22
That's actually from the Quran, the Messiah.
23
the Messiah.
24
that's also Ibn Maryam, son of Maryam, The other thing that you might find interesting is also the Virgin Mary, right?
25
I mean, she was mentioned 30 plus times.
26
in the Quran, she's revered.
27
Right?
28
Actually, she was the only woman whose name was actually mentioned in the Quran.
29
No other name of a woman has been.
30
I mean, there was-- - Really?
31
- Absolutely.
32
Maryam's is the only name that's named my name in the Quran as a woman.
33
- As the mother of Jesus.
34
- As the mother of Jesus.
35
There is a whole chapter in the Quran just dedicated for the Virgin Mary.
36
So you can see, and of course the same prophets, many of the same prophets, It's Elijah or Moses or Abraham or...
37
They're in the Quran.
38
Um.. as they are in the New Testament and the Old Testament.
39
So the faith traditions are very similar.
40
So that's why the Muslims are actually very accepting of the Christian faith traditions.
41
They are encompassing of the Christian faith traditions.
42
So yeah, I mean - - And you're saying this as a Christian?
43
- I'm saying this as a Christian here in Jordan.
44
Absolutely.
45
I'm at a disadvantage because I have not read the Quran, I'll just say that but we have been taught for 25 years since 9 /11,
46
that Islam is inherently hostile to Christianity.
47
but you don't believe it.
48
I totally disagree with that.
49
I think hostility is, you know, Is it a human thing?
50
Yes.
51
You find humans on all sides of the spectrum.
52
that are compassionate or hostile, that's a common thing across humanity, across the world.
53
But to demonize one religion to say everyone in that religion is hostile is is an atrocity, Tucker.
54
It's absolutely not true.
55
I agree with you.
56
Did you experience discrimination growing up here as a Christian?
57
I've never felt discriminated against as a question.
58
That's true?
59
That is true.
60
- Yeah.
61
There's another story on the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
62
I think it's...
63
I mean, it shows you just how old these traditions are in the region.
64
and how welcoming it used to be to people from all across all faiths, a Jewish or a Christian or Muslim, right? in the past.
65
- Wow.
66
so since I think a thousand years ago, since Salah al -Din or Saladin, right?
67
Yeah.
68
The keys to the church of the Holy Sepulchre.
69
did not belong to any of the Christian denominations, because they couldn't agree amongst themselves, right?
70
The Armenian, the Orthodox, the Catholic, et cetera.
71
Ethiopian, like who's going to have the key to the church, right?
72
And actually that key was handed to, at the time, Salah al -Din.
73
And even today, Those keys are handed to a Muslim family, it's I think the Ben Sebe family of Jerusalem.
74
They opened the church in the morning.
75
and they closed the church at night.
76
So that's the kind of sort of I mean, these are the stories we grew up with.
77
as Christians in the region, as Muslims in the region.
78
even as Arab Jews, right? from the region.
79
This is sort of the faith and the common faith and cultural tradition we grew up with here.
80
Um, So a lot of the stuff that we see today is very new.
81
These are lines drawn in the sand by colonial powers.
82
that really sort of - Yeah.
83
destroyed that social cohesion and the social fabric that existed here.
84
My complete outsider perspective At the time when the official capital of the state of Israel moved from Tel Aviv, a city of recent creation,
85
to Jerusalem, a city that, as noted, long predates the state of Israel.
86
was that Jerusalem changed from an international holy site to a kind of government garrison run by a city state,
87
run by a nation state.
88
And that's probably not good for the Christians.
89
Do you think it's fair?
90
Yeah, I think Jerusalem belongs to all people, right?
91
It surely doesn't belong to Bibi.
92
It's not his.
93
He didn't make it.
94
None of those buildings was built by the government of Israel.
95
Sorry.
96
Ah.
97
So but now it kind of feels like it belongs to BB.
98
Again, this is my perspective from thousands of miles away, but - Okay.
99
It's just interesting
100
And you know this because you spend so much time in the United States that I don't think
101
It would enter the minds of most Americans that a Christian could be better treated here in Jordan than in Israel.
102
Yeah.
103
I don't think it's just the Christians, I think...
104
the occupation is an equal opportunity.
105
Oh, for sure.
106
I don't think it's primarily the Christians, but What makes it galling from an American perspective, I am American, I see everything through the lens of the United States and its own interests.
107
is that, America is paying for this you know and America is a majority Christian country,
108
So we can all have different views about what our foreign policy ought to be, I don't think many Americans are in favor of foreign policy that oppresses their fellow Christians,
109
I hope not.
110
I hope not.
111
But you see the point.
112
Yeah, absolutely.
113
Absolutely.
114
I think...
115
I mean, my advice would be to the Christians that really care in the US is, Talk to us.
116
Talk to the ancient Christians, you know, we've been here.
117
Since Christ, we're here.
118
Don't just listen to the DC experts, you know.
119
So you don't? they don't reach out to you?
120
No, in fact, this, I think what I'm sharing with you today is something that's novel.
121
This is not a narrative I don't think.
122
that you hear, right?
123
in the US a lot, ever.
124
I feel shame listening to you and I rarely feel shame, but I do feel shame listening to you
125
that I didn't know more about this because I am a Christian and I think, we have an obligation to know what our tax dollars do to our fellow Christians.
126
And I just haven't spent enough time thinking about it and I think it's very odd
127
that Christians in Jordan and in Israel aren't receiving Help from Christians in the West.
128
And this is important to mention, Tucker, but possibly the most destabilizing thing happening in the region.
129
is the situation Israel -Palestine.
130
without a just resolution.
131
Yes.
132
A just resolution.
133
for the situation of the Palestinians there.
134
It's just...
135
It's just, it's going to be even more destabilizing for communities in Palestine, in Jordan, across the region.
136
How about the United States?
137
Mm -hmm.
138
So.. you fund mass murder in Gaza and there's no blowback to you, I think there's probably going to be, wouldn't you think?

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
