Rapinoe No God · Let's Ask the Mamas!

• 0:00
  We got a question for American mama's. Dear mamas, why would it Megan
• 0:03
  Rapino getting injured in a soccer game make her think there is no God?
• 0:06
  Well, let's ask our American mama's mama and joining us now our American mama's
• 0:23
  Terrynteville and Kimberly Burlison. Megan Rapino has won multiple gold medals, She's won
• 0:30
  multiple World Cups. She's won a couple different types of championships. She was
• 0:35
  playing her last professional game, the championship of the NWSL National Women's Soccer League.
• 0:42
  She was playing for the ol Rain. I don't okay anyway, she
• 0:46
  was playing and in the first six minutes of the game, she snaps her
• 0:49
  achilles tendon and she's out. She's done. That's the end of her career.
• 0:53
  At the press conference afterwards, she said she didn't deserve to be injured
• 0:58
  and that the fact that she was injured was proof that there was no God.
• 1:03
  She turns me off every time she opens her mouth. Now, I
• 1:07
  will say this, I think that she was it was a joke in poor
• 1:11
  taste. I think that she was trying to be funny. But here's the
• 1:17
  thing about that. If we try to be funny towards the left in that
• 1:22
  way. Let's say we said something we mocked somebody who was atheist, we
• 1:26
  would be called to apologize. She says something that's very it's offensive, it's
• 1:32
  in poor taste, and if she really means it, that says a lot
• 1:36
  about her, Like who deserves that, Megan? If not you, Like,
• 1:41
  who do you think would deserve that? So I think she was trying
• 1:44
  to be funny and it just it fell flat. But nobody's going to call
• 1:47
  her out. Nobody's going to cancel her. But if you switch it around,
• 1:51
  I think that we would be called out. We would have to be
• 1:53
  apologized. What I think is kind of common though, and I think that
• 1:57
  we've all probably had this experience before, is that we question God in our
• 2:01
  suffering and we praise Him in our triumphs. And I think I've been there
• 2:06
  before. I have felt that way before. And I think the one little
• 2:09
  takeaway that I got from it was that she mentions God. I think there's
• 2:15
  hope in that. There's hope in the mention of God, because we all
• 2:19
  know when I've gone through my own suffering and I question God, especially after
• 2:22
  her dad died. I almost lost a child. I remember feeling so abandoned,
• 2:28
  and then there was a time in life when it was better and I
• 2:30
  realized I was being carried the entire time. And so my hope for Megan
• 2:35
  is that she finds that and she feels him at some time, because he's
• 2:39
  not going to give up on her. She can give up on him,
• 2:42
  but he will not give up on her. That was one of the things
• 2:45
  that really got me on this. It's not that, you know, I
• 2:46
  felt insulted as a Christian or whatever. Look, you can insult God all
• 2:51
  you want, that's not going to offend me, but it certainly says something
• 2:54
  about you. Yeah, and her whole comment one that she didn't deserve to
• 3:00
  be injured, Well, who does exactly? What kind of a mindset is.
• 3:07
  She's so arrogant and she's gotten away with so much. She can say
• 3:12
  anything she wants. And that's what happens when you're that far to the left.
• 3:16
  You've been protected with all the things that you've said. She's so arrogant
• 3:23
  in her approach to everything, and that's why her leadership. Unfortunately, I
• 3:29
  think it brought down women's soccer. I think, well clearly brought down the
• 3:31
  US women's national team. They had their worst showing ever in a Women's World
• 3:35
  Cup as she was leading them this last time. They got eliminated pretty early
• 3:38
  on, almost got eliminated in the group stages, which would have been completely
• 3:44
  It's like that ingirl, that maing girl in school where she's like the leader
• 3:49
  and she's so arrogant in the way that she approaches everything, and nobody wants
• 3:53
  to be her target. So they kind of stand beside her. Like the
• 3:57
  girl beside her you could tell was very uncomfortable. Yeah, and she kind
• 4:00
  of lashed it off and she was like doing her head herd analogy. Yeah,
• 4:04
  she's the means. She's the means fully, but they don't really,
• 4:08
  I think inside of themselves they don't like it. But you don't want to
• 4:12
  be on her bad side, you know. I mean that her wokeness has
• 4:15
  carried her where she is. Her wokeness is what has paid her bills.
• 4:19
  You know. That is the one thing that has all of these She's in
• 4:21
  all these advertisements. She's a mean person, she's rude, she's arrogant,
• 4:27
  and I'm quite frankly, I'm ready to see her just go off, go
• 4:30
  leave, leave the TV leave the soccer field and you know, just her.
• 4:35
  I think in a you know, in the next decade or so,
• 4:39
  it's going to all the things that she has said is going to come back
• 4:41
  on her because she's been on the wrong side of history at every single point.
• 4:46
  Well, life has a way of humbling people like that. You know,
• 4:48
  you think of the bullying school, it's very often that the bullying school
• 4:53
  that everybody was afraid of, there's something that happens in their life. There's
• 4:56
  a twist and it's a full circle moment where they realize they're wrong and then
• 5:00
  there they are welcome with open arms the whole Christian community. So she'll get
• 5:05
  there. That is That is actually the thing that if Megan Rappino were to
• 5:10
  realize one there is a God and two that that God sacrificed himself for her
• 5:15
  took injuries much worse than an achilles heel, that she would be welcomed in
• 5:20
  by the Christian community. They would be they would celebrate her turning towards Jesus
• 5:25
  and turning towards God. Absolutely, absolutely, Yeah, it's I think it's
• 5:30
  a shame what she's done to women's soccer. I think it's a shame what
• 5:32
  she's she's done to her own legacy because she could have been seen as one
• 5:38
  of the greats, and instead I think she's just going to be seen like
• 5:40
  Colin Kaepernick and and not one of the greats. If you like ask our
