I don't put much thought into numerology because it just complicates the Simple Truth and tends to lead people into cultic thinking. As to the people back then being simple and ignorant about the deeper truths of life: I don't think that either. The deepest thinkers in history were the earliest philosophers like Socrates, Locke, and Church Elders such s St. Augustine. The subject of crime and punishment was a settled issue from way before Christianity, and wanton murder has always been treated pretty much the same by amost every civilization from the jungles of Borneo, the Sumerians, the Romans, and all subsequent Christain kingdoms. What has changed on the issue has been a late interpretation of those understandings by us, a latter age civilzation - the Post Modernists. The concept of Rehabilitation was never considered before the 1840's. It came about as a result of the Wesleyan Revival in England that lasted from the 1790's til about the 1840's and spread to America. With that Christian revival came the idea that we are not the final arbiter of men's souls. Therefore, society should render mercy in the hope that a man could experince his own personal revival while in prison. it was the Quakers who led this idea of prison reform and were instrumental in institutionalizing the US prison system in such a way that there were two Christian services a day and a constant barrage of Bible reading and lessons taught to anyone who wanted to take part. The only reading material allowed in a cell was the Bible. No one can say how effective this was, but that was the thinking and the beginnings of the Liberal policies in our legal system today. Such never was the case in classical times. In this context, I don't think the outlaws in the old west had any doubt about whatthey were doing, or what the proper consequences should be if caught. Law and order was well understood. Sin was well defined, and they knew that a hanging was societies proper way of expunging evil. Society was only responsible for allowing a man the chance to make his peace with God - not to be the final arbiter and give him a pass. That was seen as God's business. We have lost sight of that across the entire spectrum of criminal behavior, and that has reulted in the chaos today.

@@OutnBackerHey hey hey you quit talkin high edmucated logic and history to the bible beater for I go anna beat you with my bible.

I don't know that it has a name but I bought it from a royalty free website called Audiojungle. Added the "yah"

@@WildWestExtravaganza it's great especially the "yah". It's like a defiant war cry from desert dwelling Bald eagle. Which is more badass than a Independence day firework with a laser explosion of George Washington.

Haha

@@WildWestExtravaganza thanks

If you scroll down far enough on my videos you'll find an episode on Ned Christie. Really interesting guy!

Thanks Josh, after I posted this comment, I saw you did one on Ned Christie under your older Bloody Beaver podcast. I read someplace he was also an amateur gunsmith who converted his percussions pistols to fire cartridges because he couldn't afford to buy new. Pretty ingenious. I'll have to check it out. 👍

Whew

Great, you?

Not at all! I'm really excited to cover him

Named after a river up that way

@WildWestExtravaganza thanks mate that makes much more sense, I was thinking he must have used really old bullets or something!

Brother, I ain't had a day off in 5 years.
