He becomes a dope when he wades into politics. He needs to stick to what got him there. Nuclear family values. No drugs, no crimes, get and stay married, work hard, be wise with your finances, love your family, etc. He lives the secret recipe but doesn't seem to share it as often as he preaches victimhood. IDK, I just see what people talk about. Maybe he does that more than people know. I hope he does. I hope he has a good relationship with God too.

"Just breaking the mode, that's all," James said. "I wanted to be a part of the statistics that breaks the mode of fathers running out on their kids. That was something that I obviously went through and I knew from Day 1 that wasn't going to be me. So, to have a family and be there for them and be there on a day-to-day basis is important. I know I travel a lot but I'm a staple in the household and it means a lot to me and I know it means a lot to my kids.


What's nuts is that Lebron could, actually, you know do something about this. Instead of mobilizing people to vote for Biden, he could start programs that focus on keeping fathers in homes. He could talk about the innate value in a mother and a father. He could espouse traditional beliefs, he clearly believes in him. He could say more about this than the complex, pointless topic of BLM. He could wear a shirt at a game that says "Get job. Support your kid. Be at home" or something. He could REALLY put some effort here.

Why not? Because he would get roasted for that by the media.

Absolute hack journalism. This writer’s bias against Harrison’s beliefs is oozing out of every sentence. This was not even worth the click

Well I don't think Butker's job is in jeopardy. Tavia Hunt the wife of Clark Hunt who owns the Chiefs has made a post on her instagram.....


I’ve always encouraged my daughters to be highly educated and chase their dreams. I want them to know that they can do whatever they want (that honors God). But I also want them to know that I believe finding a spouse who loves and honors you as or before himself and raising a family together is one of the greatest blessings this world has to offer. Studies show that committed, married couples with children are the happiest demographic, and this has been my experience as well.
*Affirming motherhood and praising your wife, as well as highlighting the sacrifice and dedication it takes to be a mother, is not bigoted. It is empowering to acknowledge that a woman’s hard work in raising children is not in vain.* Countless highly educated women devote their lives to nurturing and guiding their children. Someone disagreeing with you doesn’t make them hateful; it simply means they have a different opinion. Let’s celebrate families, motherhood and fatherhood. Our society desperately needs dedicated men and women to raise up and train the next generation in the way they should go. Proverbs 31:28 says, “Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.” Embracing the beautiful roles that God has made is something to celebrate.
*I also caution against taking things (or parts of speeches) out of context. Sound bites overlaid with hateful comments are not what we want to model for our children or others. We need more dialogue (and VALUES, IMO) in this country and less hate.*

Her post is 100% true

But we went from a millionaire to now a billionaire telling people their love and positive experience with a single income home.

Right or wrong, at some point, it’s wise to try and read a room.

Yeah I'm confused about the outrage. A catholic was invited to a catholic school and talked about catholic beliefs.

I mean, he told a room full of women that spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on a college degree that the majority of them would be happier to never use it

That’s kinda ironic eh?

If those are Catholic beliefs why is a Catholic college taking 30k a year from women on a degree? Seems like theft on the part of the church. They should instead teach Thais women the majority of them would be happier to not waste that money and instead find a man to start a family with

Nah, he didn't. But you've become the caricature people assumed you were back in your booster shot days, so I'm not surprised that's how you took it. Dumbest alleged Catholic I've ever seen. You should read something or drop the facade, imo.

Wait, are you now saying Butker didn’t say the majority of women in that room wouldn’t be happier staying at home with their children over their career?

I don’t even necessarily think he is wrong here to be honest
