Pearl - Father Mike Schmitz Is A SIMP!

00:00:00.000 I don't agree with women interpreting the Bible, but I do think men can interpret the Bible

00:00:05.220 themselves. They don't need another man and often a lesser man telling them what to do.

00:00:09.520 Who are these people? What's going on, guys? Welcome to another reaction episode. Today,

00:00:15.240 we're reacting to Ascension Presents, Father Mike Schmidt talking about submission. So

00:00:22.180 you know what made me uh do this somebody i was talking to said that he liked father

00:00:29.260 mike schmidt and i said the things i've seen him talk about was kind of cucked and like

00:00:34.540 simpy and yada yada but men love like i don't know it's tough feeling bad for simps sometimes

00:00:39.420 because men like love um being simps so i don't know but well i haven't even seen this video or

00:00:46.200 if i have it was a long time ago i don't remember what he said i remember thinking um that it was

00:00:51.320 like liberal uh but let's see if i agree or disagree on submission of course this is all

00:00:58.360 right this murder my close-up mr demille i think it accentuates some of my my name is father mike

00:01:04.760 schmitz so generally what i don't know what i find with conservative e boys is that they're usually

00:01:10.600 like conventionally attractive and they tend to and i can't say if this is his intention or not

00:01:16.200 they tend to care more about public praise than honesty because they don't generally have the 0.75

00:01:20.920 balls to stand up to society on, um, topics that make women look bad or say that women are lesser 0.98

00:01:27.080 than men. They won't say that cause they're, uh, you know, scared. And again, I, um, I'm not

00:01:33.580 judging because I can understand that. Uh, but I, you obviously don't fear God, right? If you're

00:01:40.540 more fearful of public perception and losing things on earth, then you don't fear God that

00:01:44.800 much, which is fine. Um, just don't give me any holier than thou stuff. You know what I mean?

00:01:50.000 And this is Ascension Presents. So here is the scripture that is read in Mass on Sundays,

00:01:57.660 occasional Sundays. Here's a scripture that some people even choose to have at their weddings.

00:02:01.880 Here's a scripture that sometimes people in the Bible in a year, or even they're just stumbling

00:02:05.400 through the New Testament and they come across Ephesians chapter five, and they hit this line

00:02:09.460 that says, wives be submissive to your husbands and all things as to the Lord. And all of a sudden,

00:02:14.900 just like, whoa, what is happening? In fact, when that comes up in the lectionary, right in the

00:02:18.920 cycle of readings on Sundays. Sometimes it's just like, what is happening? What are we going to say?

00:02:23.900 Even there might even be an option to like skip it or to like go over this. When people choose

00:02:28.220 it for their weddings, you know, I sometimes see this. I sometimes see this confusion of

00:02:32.160 like people, guests at the wedding are looking back and forth. Like did they actually, there's

00:02:35.920 Catholic YouTube, there's Catholic Twitter, there's Catholic all these things. And there's this kind

00:02:40.080 of like this rise and people talking about, yeah, that's what we do. Here's what it is. Husbands,

00:02:44.780 you are leaders you lead your your wife you lead your family men be leaders and i'm all about men

00:02:50.820 taking responsibility for themselves making oh men taking responsibility for the people around

00:02:55.720 them people that are under under their care okay but what is it does he get authority does he get

00:03:00.340 authority come on mean to say okay guys you need to lead you need to lead your family you need to

00:03:05.940 lead your wife you need to lead her and also she needs gonna be is it gonna be some roundabout

00:03:10.880 answers you can have some balls let's see it's to submit to you in all things that i have to be the

00:03:15.920 one to say this there should be some catholic men or christian men that are calling out this stuff 0.94

00:03:23.040 and it shouldn't be me but if no one else will do it i guess i'll do it to the lord like what

00:03:26.800 does that actually mean great question camper because i don't think it means what you might

00:03:30.960 think it means in fact let's go to the beginning earlier on in ephesians chapter 5 i think it's

00:03:36.080 verse 21 saint paul begins this whole section by saying be mutually submissive to each other out

00:03:42.160 of reverence for christ so be oh my god oh not the mutual submission i am done catholics done cooked

00:03:52.560 mutually submissive to one another out of reference for christ here's the first thing

00:03:56.480 one is paul is saying submit to each other bruh you know i've talked to couples who

00:04:02.080 again this is what i mean you go to counseling and this is the guy helping you out i told my

00:04:09.920 wife to stop spending money well you have to be mutually submissive to each other do you want to

00:04:15.760 stop spending his money you know i've said that they hear this church and now from the outside

00:04:21.280 it's like oh it just seems so like i don't know i'm kind of cringy but from the inside i talked

00:04:25.920 to this bride and groom just the other day and they were saying this they were saying well

00:04:29.760 Well, the bride was saying, well, I just, I trust him.

00:04:34.060 And so, so yeah, I want to follow his lead.

00:04:37.680 And she said, that just makes sense for me.

00:04:40.180 Okay.

00:04:40.940 Do you obey him?

00:04:42.340 Trust it.

00:04:42.800 You can trust a man.

00:04:44.740 Obeying is a lot harder.

00:04:47.200 Said, yes, this is the.

00:04:48.100 You give him orders when he gives you instruction.

00:04:50.000 Do you argue?

00:04:51.120 You give your opinion?

00:04:52.480 Whole context that St. Paul's talking about when he says, be mutually submissive to one

00:04:56.400 another out of reverence for Christ.

00:04:58.160 Number one, this is. 1.00

00:04:59.420 what a pussy what a pussy i just cannot stand men that behave like women mutually submissive 1.00

00:05:07.180 so this is husband and wife submitting to the other right mutually submissive secondly what is 1.00

00:05:13.660 it to submit what is it to be submissive it is to place yourself under the mission submission

00:05:20.460 is to place yourself under the mission of the other person and so in the context of marriage

00:05:25.420 here's this bride who says oh yeah i i totally trust this man that i want to give my life to

00:05:30.540 i'll spend my life with and so she said for me it makes sense it's organic it's it's natural to 0.97

00:05:34.860 trust him to place myself under okay that's a woman that's lying um because all women have a

00:05:39.900 disobedient like if you think the women today are better than eve a lot of times women say things 0.87

00:05:44.300 like that but they don't live it and it's very obvious by their behavior and a lot of times i

00:05:49.020 get pushed back they think i'm black filled but yo i've seen too much his mission because we have

00:05:53.260 the same worldview i i know his mission i trust his mission i love his mission i can place myself

00:05:58.140 under his mission and he likewise says the same thing saying i know her i love her i trust her

00:06:03.500 i know her mission i can place myself at the service of her mission dude that's not

00:06:10.220 so that's the first part bro that the submission is i'm placing myself under your mission i will

00:06:15.980 only do that i will only do that if i love respect trust the other person if i actually believe in

00:06:22.540 in their mission. And then in that case, that makes sense. So what is mutual submission? It

00:06:27.580 is a mutual race to the bottom. So husband and wife, ideally. Okay, let me get this straight. 0.99

00:06:33.420 It's a mutual race to the bottom to serve each other. Like, do you see what I'm saying? Like

00:06:40.960 these, oh, I hate these people. Oh, it's like deep in my soul. Because there's people that

00:06:47.760 actually believe and live this stuff and again if people aren't afraid of their congregation it's a

00:06:56.320 very simple answer it's yes you're supposed to obey him and white men in particular are the most

00:07:02.780 i've noticed in my interviews they're the most adversarial to this black um people not that i 0.99

00:07:10.960 mean the black women in america oh no they're not obedient at all but like african black guys are 1.00

00:07:16.500 really the only ones that i've seen where they just say yes with their chest and they mean it 0.99

00:07:22.660 but i don't know white guys they just do this convoluted stuff and it's just ridiculous

00:07:30.500 they would love respect and trust the other they would know the mission of the other they'd be so 0.89

00:07:34.900 united in that mission that it would be a a race to the bottom a race to serve and this is this is

00:07:41.780 is the key again when it comes back to this okay men you gotta okay but your boss isn't in a race

00:07:46.320 to serve you like that's completely backward and i know they i hate it when they say oh well

00:07:52.820 a boss isn't um that's not the same thing as a marriage well wouldn't you expect actually more

00:08:00.180 obedience and submission to a guy that you had a child with no but you know what it is i think men

00:08:06.920 are just dying to be slaves i think men should love their kids less and abandon them more

00:08:11.920 because um that's the only way men um well that's the only way women will learn is if there's a 0.51

00:08:17.200 consequence for being terrorists and if they're terrorists let her keep that kid and men are the

00:08:22.640 first ones that are like gonna push back on it because it's like they just want yeah they just

00:08:27.420 want to be terrorized a lot but lead your family you gotta lead your wife you gotta lead your

00:08:30.880 lead lead them gotta just lead them like okay that means i gotta like i'm in charge that means 0.81

00:08:36.040 okay I'm gonna make the decisions even brides will say something like that like yeah I guess

00:08:39.380 that means that you know he makes the decisions in the family that means he's in charge okay so

00:08:43.200 you're gonna say period he gets to make the decisions and of the family I don't is that

00:08:49.960 what it means oh my god oh my god this is what I had to listen to growing up I swear to god

00:08:59.520 and I hate being gaslit about this that it's not real because it's literally 90 percent of the

00:09:05.140 people like they do not believe in real obedience and they're afraid is that what christian

00:09:11.060 fatherhood christian husbandhood christian leadership means could be i think that we

00:09:18.760 are paying attention to one part and not paying attention to both parts like we're paying attention

00:09:23.680 to half of it so again there's there's catholics all i need to hear from someone is how they answer

00:09:28.380 this question that's all i need to hear if your church can't your leaders can't say yes period

00:09:34.860 and you're not all on the same page about that nothing else you guys say means anything to me

00:09:41.740 because you're afraid of women and fear of women is what started the whole societal decline in

00:09:48.780 the first place so those christians are like yeah we'll be adamant about this scripture says wives

00:09:53.260 submit to your husbands he's going to lead okay he's going to lead so i'm going to embrace that

00:09:56.460 and be true to the bible okay great question what's the christian vision of leading

00:10:08.060 like what is the christian vision of the one who's called to be the leader

00:10:13.180 well where do we look we look to none other than jesus himself so jesus is the head where his body

00:10:19.260 jesus is the bride yeah but that's what i mean so what they want to do is they don't like men

00:10:23.660 having authority over themselves they kind of want men to be slaves and the church wants their slaves

00:10:29.100 society wants their slaves so they want to say oh god and then we need this church authority to 0.91

00:10:34.460 interpret the bible for you because you can't do it men and i don't agree with women interpreting

00:10:39.660 the bible but i do think men um can interpret the bible themselves they don't need another man and

00:10:45.500 often a lesser man telling them what to do like who are these people and that's that's the thing

00:10:50.700 is like like who who are these people lecturing me on sunday like okay i'm gonna like let me get

00:10:58.920 the straight i have to go to a church and i have to be lectured by a guy that doesn't even have 0.91

00:11:03.500 the balls to say that women should obey their husbands and submit to them and all things that's 0.89

00:11:07.760 going to give me these convoluted answers and your church is supposed to be right and superior 0.99

00:11:12.780 Really? Really? And like, I have the balls to say that. And they don't. I mean, to be fair,

00:11:23.100 I'm a woman. I'm a protected class. So maybe I'm just in a society where only the women can say 0.75

00:11:28.460 this. But like, I just think it's a different level of like evil because people really do 1.00

00:11:37.600 believe in this stuff and your job as a pastor is to be accurate about what's in the bible or

00:11:45.840 priest or whatever and so many times they just want the clout and the status of being in that

00:11:51.280 position they don't care about god because if they cared about god and the congregation half

00:11:55.200 the time doesn't care about god either they care about being right because if they cared about god

00:11:59.520 they would put pressure on their church to actually teach what's in the bible but they don't like if

00:12:04.720 you go to church for the truth and your church isn't telling the truth why aren't you pissed

00:12:09.040 i'm the only one that's pissed right room we're the bride how does jesus lead well he doesn't say

00:12:16.960 i'm here to make the decisions i'm here i'm the one who's in charge he says the son of man meaning

00:12:21.360 himself did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many so yes now

00:12:27.840 they're gonna convince men but i don't know i think there's something in especially white men

00:12:31.600 that they just want to be slaves so they're they'll just keep going into self-inflicted slavery

00:12:38.400 by getting married and quote unquote doing the right thing so lead what's leadership look like

00:12:46.080 it looks like that it looks like service it looks like pouring yourself out in love doesn't mean

00:12:51.360 like oh yeah that therefore i make all the decisions that way you know my word is the

00:12:54.880 final word okay maybe it doesn't they started this thing by saying that men have the responsibility

00:12:59.600 of taking care of their family and now he's undermining your authority if that's not evil

00:13:04.920 i don't know what the hell is there's a reason i get passionate about this stuff it's because 0.99

00:13:09.800 i have seen christian god-fearing men be undermined by these lesser like fuck boys like 0.99

00:13:15.480 who are you who the fuck are you and you know it maybe maybe maybe you say who am i because i'm 1.00

00:13:23.100 just some ginger volleyball woman right but at least i have some anger about this stuff at least 1.00

00:13:29.080 you know at least i uh at least i will say water is wet the sky is blue what the fuck is this 0.98

00:13:36.200 but none nobody will do it so anyways in some cases maybe it does in your family maybe that's 0.97

00:13:43.660 how you've worked it out but that doesn't necessarily come from the bible the biblical

00:13:49.060 vision of wives submit to your husbands husbands love your wives just paul goes on to say husbands

00:13:55.440 love your wives as christ loved the church and handed himself over for her to purify her okay

00:14:00.880 but okay but if he does that does does she obey jesus loved the church by emptying himself out

00:14:08.480 not by being in charge not by making the decisions but by serving to the point of death so yes

00:14:16.560 Yes. Husbands, lead. But lead like Jesus. But it doesn't say, my word is final.

00:14:27.120 Oh my God, he can't have the final word? He can't. Okay, let me get this straight. So

00:14:32.920 he can't have the final word.

00:14:36.320 Of course, Jesus' word is ultimately final. But who says,

00:14:41.740 i laid down my life for you i'm at your service okay so let me get this straight he has to lay

00:14:48.340 down his life for her be at her service and he can't have the final word you've got to be kidding 0.67

00:14:53.420 me oh my god you guys need to get these people fired i'm not that religious with the religious 0.98

00:14:58.720 people i mean this is an abomination this is an absolute abomination okay it's doing a complete 0.74

00:15:06.520 disservice to the people that watch him and a complete disservice to the church and then they

00:15:10.880 gaslight you they say oh well you're just looking at the wrong people you're just talking to the

00:15:15.120 wrong people and it's like i don't know if a church really feared god they wouldn't care if

00:15:22.260 they had two people in it if those people actually read the bible and were living out the bible

00:15:27.180 then you get this like gaslighting where they're like well they don't have to be perfect and i'm

00:15:31.680 like okay it's really expecting a priest to read the bible out is that asking too much to not water

00:15:36.980 it down? Is that, is that me asking for, I mean, you know, I'm not asking for, I'm not asking for

00:15:46.620 you to be perfect, right? I expect you to gossip sometimes. I expect you to mess up. But what I

00:15:53.220 don't expect you to do is undermine, like there's nothing more evil in my mind that you can do

00:15:57.660 is undermine a man's authority in his house because that's what breaks up families is 0.99

00:16:01.800 undermining their authority so right now you're just giving you're just a tool for the women 0.95

00:16:07.560 to undermine their husbands they get to use handsome catholic guy to tell their husbands 1.00

00:16:12.680 they're wrong screw you screw you now brides my my sisters if your husband said that if your 0.99

00:16:22.200 husband said i'm at your service i'm here to serve this family i'm here to serve i would just take 1.00

00:16:26.840 advantage of it this is what i mean sexually inexperienced men um he looks like that he might

00:16:34.280 have had a couple bodies but especially men that aren't in the in the dating marketplace today

00:16:41.160 they will continue to be manipulated by women you i'm here to lay down my life for you

00:16:46.920 would you be willing to submit to your husband in that case the place yeah okay you're asking 1.00

00:16:52.440 the wrong questions dude what if he's ugly oh i don't know about that oh my god i hate these people 0.99

00:16:59.640 yourself under that mission of this man who says i will lay down my life for you and he actually 0.59

00:17:05.240 does it my guess is you probably would you probably would be open to that now here's an image of this

00:17:11.080 there's this phenomenal couple they came here up in duluth and they got married a bunch of years ago

00:17:15.320 and after a number of years of marriage uh they contacted me because they had a little bit of a

00:17:19.400 stress in their marriage and uh the stress was this the stress was they had a couple kids and

00:17:24.600 the bride um she always had these really great ideas of here's how we can grow as a family here's

00:17:29.400 how we can go spiritually as a family here's how we can grow just like as did you tell her to shut

00:17:33.880 up did you tell her to shut up let your husband worry about that please god please god oh my god

00:17:40.840 please it's a family that's bonded more closely and she present them to her husband and he would

00:17:46.680 say wait let me ask about this this this this and then he would just do it he would go out and say

00:17:50.920 okay here's what we're gonna do and he would lead so well but her her dilemma was that he wasn't

00:17:56.440 coming up with these ideas because in her mind well i want my husband to be the head of our

00:18:01.880 family i want him to be the leader of our family but i'm coming up with these ideas and so she saw

00:18:06.280 that as a problem she even said she even said that uh yeah her dad was the one who had all the ideas

00:18:11.320 and he implemented them in her family tell her shut up she was growing up tell her stop having

00:18:16.200 so many ideas older brother in his family he has all the ideas and and he implements them

00:18:21.000 and i said wait so you have these ideas you bring them to your husband and he you know he works with

00:18:26.120 you on this and then he he does it all like he doesn't just say oh this is my honey-do list he

00:18:31.160 embraces it he internalizes it and he and he leads your family in like this growth that's what he

00:18:37.080 does so yeah he's amazing he's incredible at this but the problem was he didn't have vision right 0.51

00:18:43.320 the problem was she or her they were her ideas she saw that as a lack and i said well women are

00:18:51.160 never happy could it be that you happen to have the gift of vision like you happen to have this

00:18:58.200 insight that told a woman she has the gift of vision that your husband doesn't it could it be

00:19:03.080 that you have certain gifts your husband has certain gifts all right so anyways

00:19:07.720 when you utilize and exercise the gifts you've been given and you bring them to him and he

00:19:11.720 utilizes it goes home and finds something else to nag him exercises the gift so all right a lot

00:19:16.600 of people say that i don't know what i'm talking about with this church stuff um but the more i'm

00:19:20.760 alive the more i just know i'm right and um i wish you guys well in sorting your out but there's a

00:19:27.320 reason people like me and really uh and i'm straight laced people for the most part don't go

00:19:35.800 because uh we don't want to deal with this so anyways um let me know what you guys think in

00:19:40.840 the comments uh am i wrong am i am i wrong for noticing this stuff uh put it in the comments

00:19:47.720 like the video subscribe to the channel ring the notification bell and i'll see you next time
