- Tavia Hunt, the wife of Chiefs’ chairman and CEO Clark Hunt, responded to Harrison Butker’s recent commencement speech, writing, “Affirming motherhood and praising your wife, as well as highlighting the sacrifice and dedication it takes to be a mother, is not bigoted,” NBC’s Liz Kreutz reports for TODAY.

These haters seems more concerned about Butker's Catholic beliefs than the athletes who have abused their girlfriends and spouses.
If his beliefs are Roman Catholic, then the Pope is not Roman Catholic. BTW, the Pope is Roman Catholic.
Really have you asked all of them?
Here's an idea deal with this fella and what he's said rather than random people in your head.
BS whataboutery.
It’s just incredibly stupid to say. I would advise most people with these strong opinions to not say them so bluntly
@@georgechickful Nothing to deal with. Nothing wrong with what he said. People who have a problem with it should deal with their own feelings about it, instead of attacking him. We both know that won't happen, as you people believe it to be your prerogative.

He is allowed to have his own opinion. But telling women they have been lied to and acting as though marriage and motherhood are the only things in life which are worth living for are very distasteful, especially on their graduation day. His own mother is a doctor.

Hahaha! Best comment of the day! 😂
ok, hear me out... all she does is write about love. So, relationships are her business. I'm sure she has been excited about progressing a relationship to marriage and motherhood someday. There is room for all those emotions and goals!
Religious schools should not be forced to adopt secular values. If you arent catholic perhaps choose a different school rather than try to change these institutions.
Are you saying that religious schools are promoting for women to stay at home? My cousin is a teacher at a Catholic school and she was appalled by it. She is also unmarried, is a devout Catholic, and has no kids. She goes to church every weekend and is a fantastic human being. To be religious doesn't mean being a sexist. He is allowed his opinions, absolutely. It doesn't make them right though. But again, this is my opinion and I could be wrong too. Peace and love to the world
@@IrsidaSheshi I think that family formation and parenthood will always be leaps and bounds more important than worldly achievements like building wealth and a high status career. He was celebrating the role of the home maker. I wouldn't call him sexist. Sure he targeted his message specifically at women but women are being targeted with messages against motherhood, family and modesty all the time so it's more so to counter these narratives than to say women specifically need to be more focused on family than men. I'm sure he would easily choose his family over his sport career 1000/1000 times. All im saying is people who are shocked to hear a message like this from a religious institution need to realize that some people actually believe in their religion enough to respect and accept the rules of it instead of trying to bastardize it so that it can conform to more secular lifestyles. There are plenty of secular institutions these people can attend if they don't want to be around religious people that stand firmly in their beliefs in favor of family formation above career, against abortion etc....
Benedictine Nund have spoken against his comments - he does not represent Catholic values
@IrsidaSheshi Butker wasn't saying that no women are called to a single life. He said that most people would get married.
@@sanjivjhangiani3243 He did not say most people would get married. He said he 'hazard to guess that most of you women are looking forward to getting married and having children'. Now, the loney left translate that as saying that he is denouncing a career for women. Most of us men value family over our careers.
He basically said FAMILY was more important than career.
Who are these people disputing that? I am so glad you were not my mother. No wonder we have so many confused kids running around.
Nothing wrong with encouraging those who want to start a family but he should’ve addressed both men and women alike. And there was no reason to hit on those who do not fit into his view of a catholic lifestyle.
At a private catholic college@TheHesseJames
@@TheHesseJameshe did addressed both you shouldn’t just watch clips and make assumptions
@@TheHesseJames He wasn’t addressing mankind genius LOL
How much time do you think he’s actually spending with his own family in between practice, games, interviews, media appearances? it certainly seems like he chose his career over his family. His wife is at home raising his kids while he’s off kicking a ball. why doesn’t HE prioritize his family?
“According to a 2019 Pew Research Center study, the United States has the highest rate of children living in single-parent households in the world, with 23% of children under 18 living with one parent and no other adults.” In the African American community 7 out of 10 families are single-parent. As an African American this topic is relevant for me and should be for every American. This discussion needs to start in high school and be further discussed in college. American families are in a crisis and don’t let the deceptive media fool you.
Absolutely. 100% correct.
What's your point?
@@icon2535 you want him to speak slower or use smaller words?
The fact of the matter is most households can't afford for any parent to be a stay at home parent.The crazy thing is we are taking our ques from some well off football player that makes millions of dollars.He can afford for his wife not to work.Most can't.
Black men should prioritize their families starting with having children with women they plan to raise those children with.
People want him fired from his job because of FREE SPEECH they do not agree with. If you disagree with him, so be it. Shrug your shoulders and move on. He kicks a ball for a living...
Naah... Misogynistic and sexist statement aren't freedom of speech
If only those young ladies college tuitions were free. He spoke freely, yet he was paid to do so; they paid millions to be marginalized by a paid free speaker.😔
Was Donald Trump lying intentionally about the Presidential election and launching an insurrection against the USA, free speech?
Are intentional lies free speech ?
@@Angbwillinspireu Maybe they needed to be if they spent millions on an education worth a fraction of that.
Nope. I don't want him fired, or canceled or to suffer any such consequence for speaking his mind. He's a football player after all.
That being said, if endorsement or other business opportunities don't come his way because those entities feel association with him constitutes a liability, well that's a consequence of his actions. When you speak things that others find abrasive, that comes with the territory. Free speech is a two way street.
The guy was speaking at a Catholic school, with family and and family values. He values his wife and what dhe does to make a home, whats the problem. Hes not belittling his wife . He was invited to speak.
He wasn't speaking to the players on his team or their wives, he was speaking young women about family values and the family unit and motherhood.
Only woke precious people would take offense to it. Boy have people lost the plot of what family really is about. Family is the building blocks of society
Right. So why didn`t he tell his fellow men that the most important job in their life is to be a father and that their life will only really start once they become fathers? He only told the women how important it is to be mothers and that`s the problem.
And since he made a reference to Taylor Swift he was actually very much speaking to the players of his team.
@@anthill1510Literally all he is saying is no matter how successful your career the greatest pride and joy will be watching your family grow. I would hope your kids are your greatest joy or you’d be an awful parent.
@@anthill1510 Men haven't veered away from their role is society, women have.
@@OliversOil No, he doesn`t. He spoke exclusively to women about their life only starting when they become mothers and it being their greatest joy. He is a man and father he could have talked about the joys of fatherhood and it being the most important thing in his life. He didn`t.
He also said that using IVF and surrogacy are deviant. So, he wants people to strive to be mothers but then derides them. Make it make sense.
Let the weak people be offended, it’s their super power.

Have you noticed how the mainstream media sticks their noses in other peoples religious beliefs. What happened to inclusion? The today show is just another talking head for the powers to be. Thank you Mrs. Hunt for your supportive comment.
No one stuck their nose into anyone's religious beliefs. They put them on display.
@@bshock687We know they'd keep their mouths shut if he was Islamic
It is odd but only because there are 1000s of speeches but if it was a different religion then not okay to report on it. I hate the word privilege but a lot of the women complaining in the media are there because women in the past did the hard work and volunteered. There were good homemakers who didn`t claim victimhood while collecting big paychecks and having the world bend to them.
Freedom of speech isn't freedom from criticism.
Ever notice how conservatives want to force their religious views on everyone else?
Standing up in support of mothers and homemakers in a nation that over and over again puts them down and looks down upon them. Sounds courageous to me. Kudos to him.
Who cares if the NFL agrees or not, he wasn’t speaking to them anyway.
Except he called those who use IVF and surrogacy deviants. So women are allowed to be mothers, but only on his terms apparently.
You can support mothers and homemakers without discrediting women who are excited to pursue careers outside of the house. Choosing a graduation ceremony of all times and places to speak directly to women about this was distasteful and misogynistic. He should have chosen to address the entire crowd because within traditional Catholic teaching not only is it a woman’s vocation to her family, but it is also a man’s vocation. Men are not called to work as their calling either, but society accepts and praises them for it, while criticizing women and trying to decide for them where they get to be.
@@user-ui6um6nt9v Here's what he actually said, clearly referring specifically to his wife: "I can tell you that my beautiful wife, Isabelle, would be the first to say that her life truly started when she began living her vocation as a wife and as a mother."

Funny how progressives suddenly know what women are now.

It's doctors. Which are over 90% male.
That's your opinion. It doesn't make it a fact.
@@IrsidaSheshi good point, you’re right though children do really well in the adult life when they grow up with crappy parents or no parents.
@@bomega2818 teachers you can't have either without those.
Family is key to this country's success. Motherhood is the core of it. Your daily presence is water for flowers. Also, Mothers obtain your skills and degrees because the children becomes adolescents and the becomes teenagers and then young adults.
So are men not important to the having and raising of children?
@@lindafinch1520 Team effort. We need both parents. Balance and if available grandparents too.
@@bshock687 At this point, Mr.Buckner is a multimillionaire so his perspective is different. The average mother probably agrees with him. Stay home and take care of family.
Motherhood is the core of it because the men don’t share the responsibility. Maybe if men stepped up in raising children, then women wouldn’t have to be the core and could be an equal partner. Maybe women don’t want to be the main pillars of the family? Motherhood AND fatherhood should be the core of a family.
@@bshock687 Lets not make it personal. No one knows you so there is no way anyone is making "assumptions" or discussing your parenting.
*If a Palestinian Muslim said this you wouldn’t care.*

He wouldn't say what Butker said, because he isn't Catholic. If he would say the portion regarding his wife or being a homemaker, that would be commendable. P.S. I'm Catholic.

@@elizabeth9674 The reality is many women in careers are better at them than men and they can also be successful mothers and wives just as men can be successful in their careers and be good fathers and husbands.
@@peterstaniforth451 couldn’t agree more.
And another husband who cherishes his wife and her dedication as a mother may say to his wife it is important for you to use your talents in a career so that you can become a more rounded fulfilled person and better mother/wife. When children are very young it is important for the mother to be there for them for long periods. When children go to school and are out of the house during the day the mother does not have stay at home and be around the kids all day long.
@@peterstaniforth451 everybody’s situation is unique and different. But I think there’s an overwhelming agenda pushed by sociopaths to trick women into thinking that a “career” is a path to fulfillment. In my opinion it’s honorable for a husband and father to provide for their wife so they don’t have to go work for another man at some company.

What you described isn't a stay at home parent. If both you worked, then you both were working parents. A true stay at home parent doesn't work outside of the home.
@@esdee878 Did you missed the part where they said one of them is at home with the twins? No one needs your limited definition of what it means to be a stay at home parent.
@@Joskemom you said that both of you worked. That's not the definition of a stay at home parent. Your child was always at home with a parent, but not just one parent on a daily basis while only the other parent works. That's why it's called a stay at home parent, not parents.
Most men do not want marriage or families and many Conservative and liberal men that I have dated as a politically independent Catholic women do not support commonsense and do feel threatened by independent women especially independent&hardworking women of faith. My version of having a child/family is not forgoing contraception each time I have relations with my spouse,is not to quit working and be begging my spouse for every dollar nor is it having multiple abortions or quitting Sunday mass&daily prayer. Neither conservative men nor liberal men understand the independent, hardworking single women of faith who just support common sense not religious bondage/pharisee way of controlling the masses nor do we support sodom&gemorrah.
Why didn’t he mention that possibility for men then?
How refreshing. Just become this man’s number one fan.
Harris supports women! Those who choose to be homemakers are respected!
And those who choose to not be homemakers shouldn’t be respected? Everyone should be free to make their own choices as long as no one is getting hurt. If you only support some women then you’re not really supporting womenkind.

They call this the "fallacy of relative privation" aka "appeal to worse problems". Standing up for women's right to be a man's property and have her only value in life being in servicing that man and be a breeder. Think I'm going to convert to Catholicism, need some property to serve me. How does it work, do you get handed out during Mass or is there an auction or do we just bribe the Priest for the one we want to buy?
Never heard of the guy before (I don't live in the US) but respect to him for saying what many agree with, but are too afraid to say - respect Mr Harrison
Salute to Harrison!
Harrison Butker, be proud of what you've said during the commencement; American family value never under-stated. People need to KNOW what "love & commitment" really are. We respect you & your wife, wise couple make correct choices.
He called people who use IVF deviants. Not sure how people who want a family but need a bit of help due to medical complications aren't displaying 'family value'?
As a Catholic millennial, it's clear that there's a significant movement among young Catholics, ranging from 18 to 37 years old, toward traditional practices such as the Latin Mass, and more conservative values. This younger cohort is noticeably more conservative than the generations that came before, particularly compared to the "boomer" generation within the Church. Many students at this college seem to resonate with these traditional views, and I personally found a recent speech on this topic to be profoundly truthful, addressing essential issues for women and the Church.
Traditional Catholicism, to me, represents the true essence of our faith. Pope Benedict XVI once said, "An authentic interpretation of the Bible must always be in harmony with the faith of the Catholic Church." This aligns with the Catechism of the Catholic Church, which states, "The Church's tradition faithfully reflects the teachings of Christ and His Apostles" (CCC 78). Sadly, not everyone understands or respects these traditional practices, and it's disheartening to see traditional Catholics face criticism for their beliefs.
In addition to spiritual pursuits, many young Catholics, myself included, aspire to embrace traditional family roles. Despite personal challenges like infertility, my dream is to become a stay-at-home mother. C.S. Lewis encapsulated this aspiration beautifully, saying, “The homemaker has the ultimate career. All other careers exist for one purpose only - and that is to support the ultimate career.”
To further emphasize the sanctity of motherhood, Pope Francis has expressed deep reverence for this role, stating, "Motherhood is not a hobby, it is a calling. It is not something to do if you can squeeze the time in. It is what God gave you time for." His words echo the Church's enduring defense of motherhood as a fundamental pillar of family and society.
Fight on sister! Praise be Jesus Mary and Joseph!
👏
Brilliant. Yes I noticed in the Latin Mass, large young families; children, babies.
Many teenagers in beautiful attire. Much more reverence and praising
only God 100%. The children hardly disturb probaly because they feel the presence of Jesus more.
The NO mass is a disaster. The bishop only allows one Latin Mass a month.
I go to a convent ,mostly, where the nuns take communion in the hand
This is the truth.
Bravo to you
Seeing the reaction that this normal statement has prompted, he was probably right about women being misled into thinking that careers are more important.
I love it when events like this occur. Because, magically, it snowballs into a colossal barrier to identify and separate the righteous from the transgressor, the good from evil, the truth from falsehood, the real from fake, the humble from arrogant, the believer from disbeliever, etc..... This has nothing to do with any freedoms/philosophies, etc...... This is the CRITIRIAN!
It doesn't matter if Catholics were offended or graduates were offended or if owners and their wives we're offended. He was being true to God and God bless him for it!

As always, the media can spin a story and inflate those who were “offended” by this gentleman’s speech. His words were absolutely heartfelt and if one takes a moment or two to hear and contemplate his words, there is profound wisdom and beauty there.

Mansplaining on stage is all it was.
@@Madilynsthat is rather sexist
@Madilyns Wow. This is my first time encountering someone using this term seriously. That's hilarious. How old you just out of curiosity?
Mother does not mean homemaker. I applaud him for not cowering to the Anti-Christian mob. He deserves a raise.
I didn’t hear him say homemaker either.
@Carvard
Ephesians 5:22
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[a] her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church- 30 for we are members of his body. 31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”[b] 32 This is a profound mystery-but I am talking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
@@donnastokes-manning6175 He said his wife had found great satisfaction in "one of the most important jobs: homemaker." So he did say homemaker, but he was talking about his wife, not all women, and he was not suggesting all women be homemakers. That's why he said "one of the most important jobs" and not "the only important job."
@@Carvard Butker never once said that women were supposed to be *homemakers.*
Butker also did not say *women's* life begins when they are married, he said *his wife said* that *her* life began when they got married.
Finally, Mary Magdalene was not a housewife. She was not married (possibly a widow) and was probably a wealthy landowner, as she was the one who funded Jesus's ministry. Some apocryphal sources suggest she may have even been Jesus's wife, but that is heretical.
@@wolfofthewest8019
He didn't clarify that it was one of the most important jobs of women.
Catholics have no room to talk about morals.
Whats the controversy?
Watch the full speech
Butker is so right. I can tell you that being a mother for 26 years has been one of the great experiences in my life. Even better and more satisfying that the books, movies and plays I have sold and the starring roles I have had. And I am a man whose wife said, look I know how much you hate the movie business so what if you become a stay at home dad and I work. You can play golf and write books and raise the boys. This is what I did. I loved every minute of it.
Thank you, Tavia! His speech was amazing.
I’m offended I’m offended that’s not news!
RT
I'm offended that people are offended by Butker!
Funny how progressives suddenly know what women are again.
I don't watch American football, but Butker is now my favourite nfl athlete. You got my support from Greece☦️✝️
Your reporting makes me LOVE Butker even more; Harrison, you are a great man that makes the Godhead smile! He is now my favorite person! Lots of love brother
God bless this man and it was a beautiful commencement speech . I love my chiefs and Clark hunt .
He never said the only thing for woman is being a homemaker, what he said was ONE of the most important things will be a homemaker, you guys need to get it right. We can make a list of NFL players that have committed haneous crimes against woman and no outrage?? But this (Catholic) man speaking at a (Catholic) college to (Catholic) grads sharing basic (Catholic) beliefs, this man is the villain?? By the way he received a standing ovation that no one seems to notice. The outrage over this speech is the reason our current society is in decay. This was the best speech I’ve ever heard in my life!!
literally no connection. they can both be terrible
His beliefs are not catholic beliefs. Referring to women who become dedicated towards achieving financial stability and education as "diabolical" is not what the Catholic church teaches. Also, did he forget about Nuns? Women that dedicate their lives to the religion.
Bravo Harrison! Well said! Beautiful speech ❤️👏
Harrison Butker is the voice of the majority. Dont let media fool you, we do live in a place called reality.
False.
Please see majority of polls re: ERA and abortion. Also see all of the potions successfully voted in re: abortion in states.
And yet you guys consistently lose the popular vote and have to resort to rigging the court systems to get your way.
If course his wife drank the coolaid😂
He is certainly a better person than any of these journalists
Christ is King. Thanks to God. This speech was needed.
Fallout? I agree with him.
I'm offended that you are offended by Butker!! As a Christian lady that lost her husband 11 years ago 💔😭 I'm outraged at the outraged!!
Stay strong
The greatest speech in modern times!
😂😂he can believe what ever he wants.
But most not force it on others.
I just cant believe he forced them all to do anything.
There's literally no evidence of any force.
Yet you can see it.
Magic.
“Diabolical Lies”, that is the key phrase to what he was trying to push. I listened to the speech, it was demeaning to women of all faiths!
Liar.
Dont lie, ur not 5.
I never purchased a jersey before but I’m definitely gonna buy his
To use it as a mop
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Most men can’t afford the lifestyle he proclaims in his speech yet you all want further enrich his pockets.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Bravo Butker, well played.
@@Christine_Findlay He said in his speech how the middle class was ruined by democrats.
I encourage everyone, people of faith or not, to take the time to actually listen to the speech in it's unedited entirety. I'm not a Catholic yet support what he shared to other young adult Catholics. This is utter nonsense with the mockery and hate.
Not to mention the outright lies about what was said.
Beauty queens who married into money can take a seat.
His jersey is breaking records in sales! LOVE IT!!!!
It’s a catholic school don’t know if you know but they follow the bible thats based speech
It says in the Bible women can't have an education and work?
@@melissagreye8445 where did he say that in his speech
@@StuntmanJo I'm talking to the original commenter I replied to
Yup, they follow a man-made book and claim it comes from God with zero evidence
He should have given his speech in latin
Not what he said though and he doesn’t hold the same sentiments for men. Very simple.
Translation: Women, no need to attend higher education, high school homemaker classes is all you need.
After centuries of progress, to support such statements is unbelievable! God save this world!
Which of your thousand gods are you referring to?

I tried to order one of his jerseys, but they’re sold out. They are on backorder.
So why did those ladies went to college? He has money so he can talk that bs. Does he even know the cost of rent these days? He is so out of touch with reality. He needs therapy. The guys looked so angry. He probably thought his mother should have been a stay at home mom. Does he even know why there are women in the workplace? Because men were not doing their job as provider. I was raised by a stay at home mom because that was what women did in those days. My mom encouraged all her children to get an education and get a job. Not all men are like my dad. He took care of his family. Most men these days don’t. SMFH.
He never once said that women shouldn't have careers or that all women should be stay-at-home mothers. He simply did not say that.
A part of his speech was him covering all the issues you point out there.
You clearly didn't even watch it.
Tavia hunt obviously watched the speech
I have a master's degree, I'm married 25 years but chose to not have children for personal reasons that have zero to do with a "career". And I applaud this young man's speech. He is 100% right. Women are lied to. My life truly began when I got married. Had I been a mother, that would have been my most important job. Funny if his speech told men to be stay at home dads, the left would be cheering for him.
It's disgusting the way the hateful left is treating him. The fact that telling women to value motherhood is controversial today is one of the reasons why we don't have kids. I don't believe this world can be saved.
@@bshock687Maybe she values people over material things. I've experienced a lot in my life, but nothing will compare to when I get married and have kids. Those who say different are empty inside.
I support his point of view.
All these women out her saying there independent, independently signing into only fans ... People can't have a view anymore without getting negative feedback!
I teach at a collegiate level. I tell all of my female students to never depend upon a man for money, to always have their own bank accounts, and to keep themselves relevant in the job market. Some women are fortunate and stay-at-home-mom works out. Others have to stay in abusive relationships because they allowed themselves to become irrelevant in the job market and are unable to make enough money to take care of themselves and their children.
Cool thats not what he said, he was just reminding women that even if they dont achieve much in the career field that being a good mother is whats most important for Women as a functioning society and that its an amazing accomplishment in itself, my mom listened to it and agreed that having kids was her greatest achievement
In what way are women reliant on men for money?
If they leave they get to take half.
His wife could leave and be worth millions ruining him.
If he leaves he's financially reliant on his wife.
In no way can you spin in that women are relaint on men, Men are reliant on women not taking all their money actually.
So it's quite the opposite of what you see as reality.

Mr Butker has a strong faith and he is entitled to share his beliefs and faith among his Catholic brothers and sisters. It takes strong character to have morals and I would bet a lot of NFL players share his beliefs.
I bet the women graduates were more excited to enter the real world and excel in their careers.
Until they hit the wall and can’t have kids any longer. Then when their jobs turn into crap or they get fired by greedy companies they’ll be left with nothing but regret. Half the women I know in their 40s and 50s that put their careers over family are dealing with that depression right now. Sounds like something I can’t imagine looking forward too.
@@letsgobrandon987Truth.
@@letsgobrandon987you know how many women deal with mental depression while being married, especially AFTER having kids . You see on the news wife killing kids . That should be telling you something
My opinion women are more happy when they have a successful career . Of course you’ll be depressed or sad if your job fired you duhhh . Why you think men be killing themselves
@@jaydenmic I’m just going by what I see around me (and know personally) not by what the media tells me. Women are happier raising their children and families with a supportive husband rather than hammering away on a 9-5.
You must not know Benedictine. These are some of the most orthodox Catholics in the country. 😂
I stand with this man! Great message to a messed up country. Traditional family values are the glue that holds a healthy family together. I applaud you sir.
So HIS beliefs are HIS beliefs.
So what? Another man with opinions that are irrelevant.
imagine going to college for years, trying to make a difference for yourself with some kind of career, only to have some athlete completely brush over that and tell you to actually focus on something you may or may not even want at all. i feel bad for the wife, her internalized misogyny runs deep
Imagine working 40 years only to discover it’s left you feeling void of meaning and wishing somebody had warned you about the importance of motherhood to the world.
@@Brian-dg3gh mothers? extremely important. so are doctors. i could NEVER be a doctor for a bunch of reasons, so i'm not going to feel my life is devoid of meaning because i never became a doctor. it just isn't for me, same with motherhood. there are a million ways to make an impact, be fulfilled, all that.
@@Brian-dg3gh you could've replaced the word "motherhood" with "being a lawyer" and it would've made just as much (non)sense. also, EVERYONE knows about the importance of motherhood
If women want to be stay at home moms that seems pretty cool to me. Kids are hard work...
@@ratrat9241 I disagree but I understand you likely also don’t believe there are biological reasons for the mother to be the primary caregiver.

As a Christian, I’m not offended. He was delivering a Christian message to Christians. How horrifying! It’s not like this speech was for a secular audience. Maybe some liberal Catholics were offended but I encourage any Christian who is offended to re-dedicate themselves to reading their Bible and growing in their faith.
I encourage everyone to read his entire speech to get the full message. Don’t let the media cherry pick and take things out of context.
