I ❤ his speech. And agree. Only the lonely/lost are angry with it.

Hello again, please pray for me. I think I am infertile because of ammenorea and I wanted marriage and children all my life and God hasn't blessed me, I know he is doing what's best for me, but it still hurts a little.

I am 43. I chased my career for 15 years plus 2 college degrees. I dated the wrong men and was left heartbroken several times. I drank and glorified being a swinging single. I could have saved a lot trouble and depression if I had worked on my relationship with God. All the young women in here please learn from my mistakes. If your faith is strong you will be fine with whatever is thrown at you.

God wrote that speech for him 🙏🙏🙏🙏 bravo Harrison

I love Fr. Chad Ripperger too! His face is gonna be on a prayer card someday! We have great saints in our midst!

Definitely going the route Harrison went ☦️

Hello Amber, I have some small reservations about his address (and his central thesis), but I prefer to keep them to myself. But I appreciate your input - very balanced and reasonable!

Sadly, the problem today is not that people disagree with Butker, but that they actually think what he is saying is wrong and immoral. It’s the same thing with anyone who speak Truth.

Oh I love when u drink ur coffee n tell us about jesus.gotta gotta go deep into his sacred heart .now I feel bad I didn't do the stations of cross and I was there at 3 oh lord.u shoulda told us about the stations of cross everything else doesn't matter but good talk God bless

I just feel like doing it during a college graduation was wrong place wrong time. But I agree with everything he said.

First time listener, it's interesting to hear God's grace flow through this wise young woman. She will live a better life (not easier) for having God as the center of her coming marriage. I wish I knew what she knows already when I was her age! I am a 72 yo divorced Catholic. Not bitter, just getting started on my Purgatory early. College will make young homeschooling moms better in their vocation.

Let's all pray 7 Hail Mary for the propagation of the Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus and the Holy Rosary

What gets me is that a lot of “Christian’s “ (I’m Catholic) seem to think the highest calling of anyone is marriage when that is not true because people like Joan of Arc exist people like Mary of Magdalene exist and I feel like especially in a university setting doing God’s will should be a more important message to say then one of marriage plus as a almost 30 year old that wants a family and kids and even that stay at home lifestyle tie hear this talking about marriage without any equal importance of addressing that God sometimes choses you for a life of chastity whether being a nun/priest or not can be very hurtful alienating and shameful for people as well as this economy be rude to wives and mothers that can’t afford the privilege of staying at home I feel like what he said and how he said it lacked for thought and was tone deaf

Thank you for pointing out the difference between Butker and Travis Kelce. Those who criticized Butker mention Taylor Swift as a prime example of a woman who has prioritised her career and doesn't need men or a family. As if fulfilment is measured in fame and fortune. BTW, Harrison Butker is a Kicker for the KC Chiefs. He is the direct reason for many team wins specially the last Superbowl

I would love though for more popular/famous Catholics to ALSO talk about single vocations/priesthood/religious consecrated life. Marriage is beautiful but I feel like many trads only focus & speak only on marriage than the other vocations. For example, I didn’t know what consecrated virginity was till like last year & that is sad when it was one of the most highly regarded ancient vocation as saint Cyprian said to first women virgins “you have already become what we will be in heaven.” Which I thought wow, and sadly many traditional Catholics don’t regard single vocations as honorable, especially if it is a women who has chosen to remain celibate & single for the rest of her life. Why don’t more famous Catholics encourage or talk about these vocations too as much they do with marriage. I mean we already have a huge crisis in the church with many monasteries closing in different countries bc there are not a lot of women entering the convent/nuns. Not to mentioned priesthood, in my diocese only two priests are being ordained:/I have nothing against marriage for the record, but what I am saying is that there are other vocations that are needed, valuable, & noble too that younger ppl need to also realize that they have different options in this life too that can be under Gods will.

Yep, I think a lot of women are coping or angry and want someone to blame or want to vent because they secretly wanted that life but now can't or don't have hope they can. So they lash out.

What the NFL seems to forget is that while pandering to the dissenting voices on Butkers superb commencement speech, 95% of those individuals do not watch the sport. In castigating and estranging themselves from Butker; for fear of social castigation by those vocal few, shouldn't the NFL be more concerned of the fall out by criticizing Butker on an opinion shared by 98% of those who do watch the sport? Shouldn’t memory serve them well and recall what happened to Gillette razor and Bud lite Beer?

YES. Thank you for saying everything you did. I agree 100% and was starting to think I am crazy or wrong. I am a new Catholic and, to be honest, this whole thing has been a little confusing for me. Especially when I saw what the nuns said back. 🙃

Totally agree with you he was speaking to women that he knew two women who follow their faith and I'm sure he acknowledged that sometimes it's not possible he was showing how God has blessed his family and how God can bless other families most of my family members or friends had a problem with this even some people in the medical field or other jobs in some cases because they were single moms and chose to keep their babies instead of a boarding them those moms do work to keep the baby that they chose and yes the father is absent but I don't think he was talking specifically about that except to choose better I believe he knows that in some cases women might work for a short period of time and then go back to fulfilling their duties when is the little easier on the family but he was speaking the truth about the time in which God gives women to have children be a mother and be a wife time for this is limited it is not the same like men. Like what he said and wished I could have had more of that as a child although I believe that when my mother could she stayed at home as much as she could found top-notch babysitters as well ones that were more like The heirs they would cook our dinners and put us to bed and charge my mother very fairly when she couldn't use that babysitter anymore she had to work a little less because unfortunately there was alcoholism in my house and my mom had to deal with that issue that is how we lost our babysitter my mom really did want to be a stay-at-home mom as much as she could when she was trying to pay for medical bills surgeries equipment and medical stuff for me and specialized clothing my mom would have to work I was proud of that because she did it to keep the family together and to keep me specifically healthy and safe and pay for mine and her medical needs when my dad was able to work and got himself together then I'm sure that changed a bit

If a woman feels fulfilled going out and working cool , if she feels fulfilled staying home with her children cool my problem is that it is coming from a millionaire whose wife can afford to stay home while we live during a time when families can’t live on a single income

Ironically, Travis Kelce and Harrison Butker are teammates. Both play for the Kansas City Chiefs, and both are three-time Super Bowl champions.

Neat

He stated NFP was wrong or unnatural. That’s not the stance of the church. I am not for contraception, but what is wrong with Natural Family Planning? It’s stuff like this that upsets me with the division within the church. There are times when having a child may not be best. God gave us a brain to use.

I’m in a relationship with someone but I’m getting used too it

I’m sorry but there’s nothing unfeminine about not wanting to be a background supporting actress to a man’s main character.

The more bozos rail against Butker, the more the Truth is revealed. Thank you Religous Hippie!

I’m happy to respectfully disagree on this one. Narcissistic and emotional abuse plus the associated trauma create hyper-independent women and survivors. I would rather work full time to pay my own bills and rent, and tend to my houseplants (in peace) than settle for anything less than a soulmate and someone I feel safe spending the rest of my life with. I have met many butker types, and they make me feel unsafe.

Hey I like to write if you wanna sing some songs poems that I post here thank you so much!!! eve proce dure to not be cursed first do not converse with things controlled by thirst durst to handle your commander words even stammered verse can break a curse protect the herds/heards slash and burn what gives concern duly earn an heirs return

This is about Esau get a bowls some good lentils hope its not a rental or you may just rent soul was it sentimental or did it scent you mental spinning in a heave ho was it such a big toll obstiensily stenciled out your part of the show your lent shows now maybe it can be penciled but look into a temple they can be stronger than a tent pole but its good to mobile like your ancestors/old folks

Harrison butker said there's nothing natural about NFP, can one embrace true femininity while practicing it?

It does not take three to get married. It takes consent to the contract terms to get married.
