Amen!

Amen To That Sister Diane Keilman! It's So Easy To Kick Around Catholicism And Christian's In General! But If Say Anything Negative About Islam The Press Is Ready To Jump Down Your Throat!!! Shalom And Amen!✝️✝️🛐🛐😇🌟🤗🙏🙏🙏🇨🇦🇮🇱♾️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🗽🦅❤❤❤‼️

[@LoudandClearChastity]

​@Great1Duanethe backlash might be a positive development. It's a wake up call to all Catholics to stand their ground and not buy into the collective herd, blind mentality. I thought the speech was powerful and brave. Maybe Butker should take up boxing!! 🥊

They're going after all Christians, not just Catholics.

Homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia. We hear and see these terms incessantly. Not once have I ever heard or seen anything about 'Christophobia," which is pervasive in our culture and the world!

[@JoAnnFuir]

I once wrote a Letter to the Editor about Christophobia. The newspaper published my letter. The backlash was insane! Some folks responded to my letter by claiming that there is no such thing as Christophobia in America. They also claimed that there is no persecution of Christians in the US. Christian persecution can take many forms. Harrison Butker was clearly persecuted for his Catholic faith. Anti-Catholic bigotry is growing in our Nation.

[@brandywineblue]

They don't talk about Christophobia because they are too busy harassing Christians

[@steveshapiro326]

I don't think people "fear" any one religion such as Christianity. Any right-thinking person fears religious excess (historically the burning of heretics and "witches"; harshness towards children in strict bible-based "reform schools"; the cruelty of Westboro Baptist Church; pedophile priests hiding behind spiritual power). Religious excess is found in all religions. As for Butker, he had every right to speak and should not be penalized. He was calm and clear. I am a older Jewish man. I believe in family values, loyalty, clean living etc. I don't agree with Butker that modern women should forego higher education and career. It can be balanced with home life.

[@Sunny-it6or]

I have never experienced that as a Christian. Maybe as a Catholic. Many of your clergy did spend decades mentally, physically and sexually abusing children who were born yet you are so obsessed with protecting the unborn regardless of the circumstances. Shame on your pride, arrogance, and blindness.

[@roseangela2797]

My husband and I both made the decision for me to be a stay at home wife and mother ..we never regretted the decision, thanks be to GOD.

[@Sunny-it6or]

Why would you? Who doesn't want that. You missed the whole point why people are so disgruntled.

[@zoraidaiglesias934]

God Bless all of you. We enjoy your program videos so much. Praying for our church

[@maryannstypa4859]

We are so over it with the moronic woke world - and oh yes, free speech only if the ‘wokies’ concur! Go Harrison and your beautiful wife and family! God bless you! The anti- God people are getting more vociferous and the persecution against us is and will get much worse!

[@homethatilove4595]

Traditional Latin Mass is the MOST Beautiful Mass worthy of loving & revering our Lord Jesus Christ. I'm so proud of Mr. Butker. Love from a real Homemaker 🍞

[@wilsontexas]

Why Latin? Jesus wasn't speaking Latin at the last supper. There is traditional and more authentic.

[@sharonmann8885]

Great talk! Congratulations to Butker!

[@peggybarkley3717]

Yes!! Way to celebrate your faith and morals. God bless you and your family.

If you state basic truths in a fallen world that has gone mad...and disordered desires, then people are going to pill you.

May we lift up Harrison Butker in prayer.

[@wilsontexas]

Ask Mary to lift him up in prayer. She is better able to manipulate Jesus since she is his mother.

[@rogeldonos5686]

Great speech by Harrison!

[@anneyoung1298]

He spoke the absolute truth, that which our leaders in the church have failed miserably to do.... From so many of our local parish priests all the way up to this current pope, they are too afraid or no longer hold to the truths of the church!

[@margaretcaponigro1507]

Great speech what a great man who loves family which is very important for a healthy society

[@jenniferbrowning9957]

Wake up Catholics!!! We should all stand up for our religion and moral values! Butker has courage and we all should show that courage!

[@kevinphillips150]

Courage? The SSPV, CMRI, SSPX, and FSSP have been around for decades. Is that courage?

[@wilsontexas]

Yes, we must stand up for the Queen of Heaven, who is our only hope of salvation!

[@quinoa32]

@jenniferbrowning9957 I second the motion! We need voices like Harrison Butker who is courageous enough to express his views & truth about what's going on in this unchanging world we live in! Have people forgotten that Jesus died for us to save us all sinners?

[@jeanlynch260]

Had this on my fridge when I gave up a career to raise my 3 son's Lord, help me not be too busy working to give my kids what they want that I'm not there to give them what they need 🙏 Amen. I never doubted that decision and my husband and I had to make changes. That was over 30years ago and it was worth it. I went back to work eventually; we figured it out that one of us was present for the boys.

[@Sunny-it6or]

Not everyone has that opportunity. Hey btw, most of the Mexicans seeking asylum at the border you all demean so much are often Catholic. May want to adjust your messaging there.

[@ricksavaiano5640]

God bless Harrison! Someone who has the courage to speak the truth. Too bad Bishops don't do this.

The NFL does not practice inclusion bc they do not have women, Asians, Jews, and the disabled and trans men.

[@glennlanham6309]

There is no controversy. Dude spoke the Truth.

[@tommyoconnor1224]

My thoughts exactly, we shouldn't even refer to it as 'controversial'

[@ferdinandsantos9341]

Thank you! Father G. Murray for clarity. You are a true shepherd for Our Lord Jesus Christ.

[@ricksavaiano5640]

People need to speak up and defend Harrison and write the NFL (Goodell) and tell them their position is not acceptable. I already contacted Goodell.

[@scottforesman7968]

I'm with Harrison. If the NFL doesn't lift this suspension, I AM DONE WITH THE NFL.

[@marietta1335]

He was suspended?

[@mrchase7191]

😊

[@Shawn-nq7du]

Willard Gene Harris appears to be the mastermind of destroying Butker likely because of his statement on LGBTQ in the speech. He started the petition to get him fired. I doubt this has anything to do with Butker''s statement on women. That is why everyone is confused. Harris is a staunch Trans Activist.

[@JackieArmB]

Haven't followed the NFL since they supported crackpot, disrespectful, despicable thugs and people like Kapernick.

What a GREAT EXAMPLE and Role Model he is for CATHOLICS EVERYWHERE!! GOD BLESS HIM! 🙏

[@Sunny-it6or]

For Catholics. So you all want to be prideful, arrogant, blind, divisive jerks who demean women's accomplishments, diminish those who are different to raise yourself up. Jesus was NEVER like that. Then again it seems Catholics worship men and God seems to be an afterthought. It is so disappointing that Butker had to diminish others to lift his faith up. Sad. The world no longer revolves around hateful, entitled, blind, privileged Catholics of convenience. Y'all need to camp out at confession. 😉

[@aislinnkeilah7361]

[@steveshapiro326]

I am not a Christian but strongly believe in free speech. Butker came across as sincere, not taunting. One of the byproducts of a good college education is the ability to listen carefully to a speaker. Then sift through everything to see what seems trustworthy, and what needs improvement.

[@michaelnielsen9962]

Regarding Butker and reflected in an excerpt from today’s The Catholic Thing, written by Mr. Royal : “If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.” (John 15:18-19) And there’s a clear reason for this: “it hates Me, because I testify that its works are evil.” (John 7:7)

What’s wrong with people these days. There is nothing demeaning in being a homemaker. I am sure if a toll was taken the majority of women would love to be at home bringing up their children and taking care of their home. At one time in my life I choose to not work and stay at home with my children and it was the best thing I did. Thanks be to God.

[@JackieArmB]

@annavieira5658 Agree! I worked only part time so our children wouldn't have to be without a parent at all times. I even home schooled my children more than 30 years ago because the schools were terrible even then. I had to leave my children to work 2-4 jobs to support them. My husband left and I've seen the damage done to my children by not having a good dad like Butker and no mom around. The 1st time I had to send my baby to a day care, I had a seizure! God bless this young man who values his family and LEADS them like a real man should. I still regret not being there for my children when they needed me. Without God, we would have never made it, and thanks be to God, they are all good adults. Like over 90% of children who may have fathers in the home, but whose fathers don't attend church etc., only 1 child attend a church now, though.
