A March, 2020 podcast is coming back to haunt congressman Dan Crenshaw because of a question a young woman asked about it during a recent fundraiser.
During the podcast with John Gretton “Jocko” Willink, a fellow former Navy SEAL and officer, Crenshaw was asked about philosophy and fiction and began discussing hero archetypes in stories.
Crenshaw answered, "Well, I'll help you. Put a period after Jesus and don't question my faith." He went on to say that in no part of that quote did he say that Jesus wasn't real.
“The important thing is that we have societal hero archetypes that we look up to. Jesus is a hero archetype. Superman is a hero archetype. Real characters, too, I could name a thousand. Rosa Parks, Ronald Reagan…” he said.
A young woman (seriously identified as a 10 year old or an 18 year old on Twitter) asked Crenshaw about the quote during a fundraiser, according to a widely distributed video on Twitter. She added after quoting what he said, "I can't wrap my head around this."
