Every year, family and friends across the political spectrum confront each other with some of the most controversial topics that come up at the dinner table. How do you handle them? What do you do with them? And how do you respond to them?
00:09:37.520That cannot happen if faithful Catholics are not getting married and having babies.
00:09:41.100I keep hearing from young people about how genuinely difficult it is to find other serious Catholics to date.
00:09:46.860Well, there's no magic solution here, but I've gotten to know the team at Catholic Match, and I can tell you they're doing something different.
00:09:53.060They are focused on sacramental marriage, not hookups, not endless swiping, actual marriage.
00:09:58.540They are the largest and most trusted Catholic dating app out there.
00:10:01.860They've built real tools to help people make meaningful connections.
00:10:04.800Their profiles go deep into what actually matters, your faith, where you stand on important stuff.
00:10:08.580If you have liturgical preference, maybe the traditional Latin mass I would recommend, they offer live events for premium members so you can connect in person, not just through a screen.
00:10:18.480If the apps nominate the dating scene, you've got to do it the right way.
00:10:21.460If you're looking, or if you've tried it before and you gave up and you just don't think it can work out, hey, God's providence might just surprise you.
00:10:29.140Download the app right now or head to catholicmatch.com and find your forever.
00:10:33.760We celebrate it, Johnny, because it's our country and it's our people.
00:10:58.360And Johnny, you love your family, don't you?
00:11:01.700Yeah, you haven't been ruined yet by the public schools and by the perfidy of your parents.
00:12:40.280Because you don't know anything about the history, do you?
00:12:41.940No, you like to talk, talk, talk, yap, yap, yap, spoil dinner for your grandmother, who might not be here next Thanksgiving, Stephanie, but you don't know anything.
00:12:51.860You haven't learned a damn thing in your entire life, Stephanie.
00:12:54.080So zip your mouth and eat your stuffing.
00:13:00.320I'm going to just, this is, I'm breaking.
00:13:02.480I'm having a little bit of trouble with, but sometimes with the Stephanies of the world, you're not going to be able to persuade them in the moment.
00:13:10.380So you have to either coax them into zip in that little trap or you have to scare them into it.
00:14:09.600But some choices are good and some choices are bad.
00:14:12.540And some choices are so bad that we actually proscribe it by the law.
00:14:18.220So do you think, Johnny, that someone should be able to go, I don't know, like a crazy killer should be able to go out and just start chopping people up when they're lying in their beds at night, Johnny?
00:15:37.220Abortion bans are just state-sponsored misogyny.
00:15:39.580If men got pregnant, there'd be abortion clinics inside every Home Depot.
00:15:42.380Oh, Stephanie, I'll tell you what, I'm going to try, I know we've had some bad interactions at this Thanksgiving, Stephanie, but did you know, I'm just going to try to, did you know that just recently a woman was murdered because she refused to have an abortion?
00:16:01.940She found out she was sleeping with a guy who had a live-in girlfriend.
00:16:06.660And I forget the guy's name, I forget even where it was.
00:16:08.880And the guy, he's been arrested since because he was stupid enough to text his friend and say that this girl who refused to get an abortion and he was going to go meet her in a parking lot and literally crop her out.
00:16:21.840That was the phrase he used, crop her out.
00:16:25.140And a lot of women are pressured into having abortions that they don't want to have.
00:16:29.320In some cases, they're beaten or killed if they refuse to have an abortion throughout the world, but even in America.
00:16:35.220And women who do have abortions face very, very serious trauma for the rest of their lives because they have a moral conscience.
00:16:43.260And so the primary reason, Stephanie, to stop abortion is because abortion kills innocent life, you know, innocent babies.
00:16:52.220And we can have that conversation some other time, Stephanie.
00:16:53.860But a secondary reason is that abortion is very bad for women and it leads women into sin and to scandal and often into horrific trauma and sometimes it kills them.
00:17:03.360And abortion mills are heavily unregulated.
00:17:05.440Women can die at abortion mills, notably at the Gosnell Clinic, Cesare Santangelo, a number of some of the worst killers in American history.
00:17:12.940So if you're a real defender of women, you would want to stop abortion too.
00:17:16.940And I'm really glad that I stopped drinking a little while ago, Stephanie, because I feel like this is a much more productive conversation than some of the earlier things we've been talking about.
00:17:24.560Now, can you please shut up and eat your turkey?
00:17:33.060Yeah, I mean, the first part is largely true.
00:17:40.640And the second part, I mean, look, Uncle Bob, I don't know about adrenochrome and stuff, but I do know that they were literally putting chemicals in the water that turned the frogs gay.
00:18:07.780In some cases, though it's a very, very small percentage of the number of illegal immigrants, in some cases people are seeking refuge from violence or terrible political situations.
00:20:39.260But, and I really like those euphemisms for, for the Jews and the blacks.
00:20:44.000Um, however, there, I think there's a little bit of a difference because you see, when we're talking about Venezuelans or something who have come here illegally, who don't speak English, who have not assimilated to the culture in any way.
00:20:54.900A lot of them have come here very recently.
00:20:57.420They, they, uh, have not assimilated in any way to American culture, really participated into it.
00:21:02.240Whereas when it comes to the, uh, the Jew, the tiny hats, as you say, um, you know, they've been here really since the beginning.
00:21:09.280Um, uh, George Washington wrote a famous letter to the Hebrew congregation, uh, describing their place in America.
00:21:15.380When it comes to black people, obviously they were, they're brought over largely on slave ships.
00:21:18.480So there have been plenty of black immigrants since then.
00:21:20.520So they're, they're much more embedded, uh, into the fabric of American society going, going back basically to the beginning.
00:21:27.680Uh, and so it would seem unjust to just lift people out whose ancestors have been in the country for hundreds of years.
00:21:34.320Whereas when it comes to the cartel assisted, uh, unassimilated, you know, uh, peasants from Latin America, uh, many of whom are involved in, in criminal activity, uh, it would be more urgent to get them out, I think.
00:21:47.100But, but I do really appreciate, especially your euphemism about basketball playing Americans.
