[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you were offered fed by his speech that’s fine it wasn’t intended for you.

The reaction he got from his intended audience was overwhelmingly positive.

He’s a Christian, who gave a speech full of Christian values to a Christian college with Christian students. Both women and men were in the crowd and he got a standing ovation. If you’re offended it’s because you’re were the intended audience or you’re. It ready to come to terms with what he was saying is truth.  He wasn’t saying that a women’s only purpose was to be in the kitchen as you might have seen in the 60 second edited clip of his full 20-30 min speech.  He addressed men as well and said how important their role was as well. He spoke truth to the fact that most people will find more value in their family life than anything else because the people you love and care about are more important than any degree.

The only ones mad or pressed about this is the man-hating women who seem to be in abundance here and on social media, and the sycophantic men who are trying to preach feminism in order to try to get dates.  Most everyone else who works, strives to be better and have a family see what he said as a basic truth and something they agree with in terms of values.

Those who disagree can have their viewpoint but it doesn’t matter, he wasn’t speaking to you or about you so you can go on knowing that.  It doesn’t matter how many “I will chose the bear over the man” memes you post in your social media, it doesn’t change the fact that you’re not the one he or any of the people who likes his speech would be looking at for a relationship anyways

I am a Catholic and he was speaking to Catholic women and he spoke against the Catholic Church and Catholic teachings so yes, it is my place and my lane to point out where he is wrong and blasphemous.

These crazy nut jobs are always trying to Bogart the Catholic Church because it has so much money and power. Good Catholic women and men will not allow that.[/quote]

Please give exact quotes for his blasphemy.

Unlike most on this thread, I read the entire speech, found here: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesfarrell/2024/05/15/heres-harrison-butkers-controversial-commencement-speech-in-full/?sh=371843c17937

His views are not mainstream U.S. Catholic views, and they are not mine. But they are neither heretical or blasphemous, and he is entitled to them.

I posted above what I thought was the most questionable thing he said: "...when you embrace tradition, success, worldly and spiritual will follow."

I posted above and the line I found most questionable was this:[/quote]

I am not posting from a secular standpoint I am posting from a Catholic standpoint.

1. I don't need quoteS to prove blasphemy, I only need 1. You don't have to be 51% wrong to be wrong. Propaganda depends on a bunch of untruths engulfed in truths so you can't decern between the 2. You only 1 blasphemous statement for it to be blasphemy. You keep pointing to truths to prove his speech was a good one. There are truths, of course, that is a requirement of propaganda

The blasphemy is that he said life began for his wife when she married him. Actually, life starts at conception, also the most important day in her life was her baptism not her marriage to him. She is called to serve god not her husband.

His heresy was much more alarming. Saying NFP is not natural, saying ivf is disordered (which has a specific meaning in Catholicism, has nothing to do with having a disorder), he says priest should not be friends with their congregation (WTF), he said you can't be pro-choice and Catholic.. you can .. you can be divorced and Catholic, have premarital sex and be catholic, be for the death penalty and be Catholic

I could go on and on and on... but I don't have to... because as we know propaganda is always a bunch of truths wrapped around lies/heresy/blasphemy ...[b] to blind the ignorant.[/b][/quote]

And embolden the fascists.[/quote]
