Harrison Butker Reaffirms Controversial Speech & Compares Himself To Saint

A not-so-stunning revelation about TKC bias . . .

Fundamentally, we not only agree with Mr. Butker's right to share his faith but his words speak to our own traditions and we're impressed with his commitment to sharing his truth.  

However . . . 

HARRISON BUTKER IS GETTING BORING AND I'M GETTING TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT HIS DUMB-ASS CATHOLIC MORALS!!!

Similarly, if we're really going to dive into the ways and hippie goodness of the Big JC . . .

Call TKC when Mr. Butker plays football with the lepers or does ANYTHING beyond speechifying.

Moreover . . . 

Kicker is the least exciting position in football and only earns the devotion of soccer players or, in this case, folks with an ax to grind. 

Nevertheless . . .

We're conflicted and we do think his comments are newsworthy and captivating even if it's the same kind of lectures about piety and guilt we've heard since Catholic grade school . . .

On Friday night, he doubled down on his remarks, comparing himself to Saint Daniel during another speech at a Regina Caeli Academy event in Nashville, Tennessee.

He told the event: 'Over the past few days my beliefs, or what people think I believe, have been the focus of countless discussions around the globe.'

He continued: 'At the outset, many people expressed a shocking level of hate. But as the days went on even those who disagreed with my view points shared their support for my freedom of religion.

'As to be expected, the more I've talked about what I value most, which is my Catholic faith, the more polarizing I have become.'

The kicker went on to say his decision was one that he did 'not regret at all', and said it wasn't people but Jesus Christ he was trying to please.

He continued: 'I can't help but tremble at the thought of the courage many saints have shown in their lives. Would I be so bold if the repercussion was what Daniel faced in being fed to lions.

'In reality any courage I have shown will lead to some small suffering, and it will lead to some people never liking me.

'If I constantly remind myself of the hardships the saints went through, especially the martyrs and their persecution, it makes it all seem not so bad.

'For if heaven is our goal, we should embrace our cross however large or small it maybe and live our life in joy to be a bold witness for Christ.'
