I watched part of the speech, he was giving it at a private Catholic College and he is Catholic himself. I saw nothing wrong with what he said. Why is this even controversial?
Because of the Narrative. The last 60 years has been mostly all about destroying the basic building block of any society - the family.
Everything revolves around this, and so consequently any sort of Religious belief must be demonized, outlawed, etc. They don’t want young people to know there are other ways of living, or that it is even possible.
Ya got me!
Why? Because insanity rules among about 50% of the population.
