That’s probably because he’s a public figure and wants to be crystal clear when it comes to explaining his stances on controversial topics. Trump doesn’t elaborate very well on his own stances which prompts him to be misunderstood very easily.

[@josephschneider9]

@@gibbonbasher8171 More like he obfuscate the issues to make him sound smart. He constantly engages in fallacies, two of his favorite are False Equivalency and Equivocation Fallacies. He throws in an example of Adultery to justify his opposition to gay rights (False Equivalency Fallacy). He also defines the terms he uses (In his own interpretation), than uses that term to justify his logical argument (Equivocation). And finally, Circular Reasoning, he's basically saying nothing throughout this video to either support or reject the legal claim to gay rights by bring up religious interpretations. He basically says "God is right so who are we to argue it" but humans are also fallible so its unlikely that God's word as written is correct....so where does that leave us???

[@mattkelly5110]

He answered this a lot better than Matt Walsh. I don't know why Matt had a difficult time with Joe when they had this same discussion

[@marguerilla]

Matt seemed nervous. He always sort of does in interviews talking about his faith even on Catholic platforms. I do believe Ben is generally more intelligent and well read and certainly is more confident when he is challenged or even given a question in general. I take Walsh to be more of a Conservative Catholic whereas I’m probably the step further to the “right” on that spectrum as a Traditionalist and to be frank it is a position that requires a lot more reading and critical analysis of assessing what is the orthodox position of the Catholic Church as expressed in the Magisterium through history. I do find myself wishing that Matt would do more reading and become firmer in the specifics of his position as dictated by his religion. Ben comes of much more self-assured and frames the question from the outset as different in secular vs religious terms, and positions himself explicitly and early as an orthodox jew whose religious framework is the deterministic factor, and explains from there his own position as the position of his religion specifically. Matt fails to do this and is sort of rhetorically fumbling around with his response and, as far as i remember, failed to situate his own opinion as the Catholic position, the position of a higher authority, that being the body of the Church’s teachings through not just scripture but the Magisterium as well. He really seems to get unstable when discussing these points especially with a more adversarial conversational partner, and is far less confident in asserting his religious position explicitly vs Ben in this clip. For Matt I think educating himself further would help but he does just seem kind of nervous and shaky in his voice (just the same as when he’s appeared on Catholic podcasts and the like - that is to say a non adversarial interview on religion) but native intelligence and reading habits have a huge impact on clarity of speech and depth of understanding religious doctrine. It’s fair that Walsh may not want to be the representative for Christianity or Catholicism at large and that may explain some reticence on his part vs Ben’s confident (characteristic of a lawyer as well, lol) expressive abilities in a dialogue or debate in which he is the interviewee rather than just the interviewer or giving a monologue or the like.

It really blows my mind when I hear anyone try to spew that 'being gay is a choice' bullshit - which I'm really glad neither of them believe. But as a gay person, I've often found myself having this conversation: Them: Being gay is a choice Me: Oh it is? So basically you're saying you could wake up tomorrow, say I'm gay, and actually change whom you're attracted to? Them: Well no, because I'm straight. Me: You're not answering my question, lol

[@Metro593]

Now of days, it’s hard to distinguish who’s naturally gay or just “gay” to seek attention… Gay has been around since ancient times, it’s biblical. The point is to deny debauchery. Same goes for a straight man indulging in lust.

[@nuknukisdead]

I don't think you understood Ben's point. He basically said being gay is a choice. While being attracted to men is not choice, living as a gay person is a choice. That is no different in practice from saying being gay is a choice. He just worded it in a way that avoids directly saying it.

[@nlievense2]

There is a huge elephant in the room here. We always hear the question "What is the problem if a gay couple want to get married, after all it is just two consenting adults. Who cares what they do in the privacy of their own home?" Firstly this question is invalid and meaningless, since gay couples sometimes procure innocent children via surrogacy or adoption or some other means and force those children to participate in their chosen lifestyle. When you introduce children into the equation then it no longer is just about "two consenting adults." The issue then becomes a wider one which involves the mental, physical and spiritual welfare of an innocent child. Secondly homosexuality is not something confined to the home, it is being forced on the wider public by schools, governments and businesses constantly - Pride used to be a day, now it is an entire month. Now you can argue what constitutes a healthy lifestyle but the objective moral guidebook of the universe or the Bible states that all forms of sexual immorality are sinful and therefore harmful. Therefore if each of us persists in a sinful lifestyle and rejects Jesus' sacrifice on the cross we are going to be in line for God's holy and just wrath, and those who actively participated in or even condoned the harming of little children would, in the words of Jesus Christ, be better to have millstones placed around their necks and be drowned (Matt. 18:6). Now we can argue whether the Bible is true or not but if it is then a lot of people will face God's wrath on this matter.

[@repelsteeltje310]

First marriage is the recognition of a loving relationship. That's it. Second when they do choose to have children. Then there's nothing wrong with two loving children Third chosen lifestyle.?? Nobody chooses there sexuality. Neither did you. Fourth expense of diversity among humans is normal. Otherwise it's called discrimination and racism based on baseless hatred. Fifth; the Bible is definitely not a good guideline for sexual morality. It promotes incest and even rape

I don’t understand how gay marriages are worse for children. This might be a shocker but a gay couple can’t produce a child on their own. To have a child they’ll have to adopt and what’s the alternative for children who don’t get adopted by that gay couple? It’s my understanding that couples that want children almost always have better outcomes than couples that don’t, leading to gay couples, which must adopt, having better outcomes than many others. All to say gay parents are probably a bet positive.

Because they view gay people as sinful, their family structure is flawed and thus it is better if the child is an orphan. Same idea with abortions. Better to grow up unwanted and abused rather than not grow up at all. Basically, not a shred of empathy.
