Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for American mamas. Dear mama's why
- 0:02Speaker 1: is the US so different from other countries?
- 0:05Speaker 2: Well, let's ask our American mamas.
- 0:08Speaker 3: Mama and joining us now.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Our American mama was Terry Nediville and Kimberly Burlason. You know,
- 0:23Speaker 1: this was actually my favorite thing about the World Cup, well,
- 0:26Speaker 1: my second favorite thing. My favorite thing about the World
- 0:28Speaker 1: Cup was the US's opening game. That was amazing. Then
- 0:30Speaker 1: it just kind of went downhill from that. Anyway, the
- 0:33Speaker 1: best thing about the World Cup was watching people who
- 0:35Speaker 1: came from other countries talking about how different it was
- 0:39Speaker 1: here in the US, how nice people were, how amazing
- 0:43Speaker 1: air conditioning is, how there's so much freedom and so
- 0:46Speaker 1: much opportunity, and how amazing the stadiums were, and the
- 0:51Speaker 1: other things they went to, rodeos or whatever events. The
- 0:54Speaker 1: people were like, it's just not like this in our country.
- 0:58Speaker 4: And kindness they talked about the kind of and people
- 1:00Speaker 4: were talking about how sad they are since they've been home,
- 1:03Speaker 4: and that they go to the grocery store and they
- 1:05Speaker 4: miss seeing our flags, they miss seeing just that patriotism
- 1:10Speaker 4: as well. Right, I watched the most disturbing video the
- 1:12Speaker 4: other day and I'm just scrolling. It just pops up,
- 1:15Speaker 4: but it's It was based in Nigeria, where the Christians
- 1:18Speaker 4: are being slaughtered, and it showed all of these people.
- 1:23Speaker 4: Somebody's videotaping these people that have died, but there is
- 1:26Speaker 4: a baby attached to one of the moms who's alive,
- 1:30Speaker 4: and the guy is videotaping and you see him talking
- 1:34Speaker 4: while the baby is laying, you know, attached. He's going
- 1:37Speaker 4: over people's bodies and he's talking about it, and I'm.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Like, get the baby, get the baby.
- 1:42Speaker 4: Why aren't you getting the baby? And I'm getting upset
- 1:44Speaker 4: about it because it's just not yeah, And I thought,
- 1:47Speaker 4: what is wrong with other countries? You know, look at India,
- 1:50Speaker 4: look at other countries where the way they treat people.
- 1:53Speaker 4: And then I thought, is it because that we're raised
- 1:55Speaker 4: in a Christian country? Is that why we're wired to
- 1:59Speaker 4: ferent And.
- 2:00Speaker 2: We think because it does.
- 2:01Speaker 4: It looks like a lot of other countries are not
- 2:03Speaker 4: wired to love one another and care for one another.
- 2:07Speaker 4: So I have to believe it's because we are a
- 2:09Speaker 4: Christian nation.
- 2:11Speaker 1: And the left likes to push back on that and
- 2:13Speaker 1: say we're not a Christian nation. But if you will
- 2:15Speaker 1: look at the founding documents, and you will look at
- 2:17Speaker 1: the founders themselves, and you will look at what they
- 2:20Speaker 1: wrote about the country. We were absolutely founded on Judeo
- 2:25Speaker 1: Christian values, ethics, and beliefs, no doubt about it. And
- 2:29Speaker 1: the only reason I say Judeo Christian is because the
- 2:31Speaker 1: Old Testament of the Bible was it came from was Judaism, right,
- 2:36Speaker 1: And there's there's a lot of stuff in Deuteronomy from
- 2:39Speaker 1: Moses that founded what our country is.
- 2:43Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, I think we do.
- 2:45Speaker 2: I think you're right. Are one of the things that
- 2:48Speaker 2: the fans that came from other countries, they kept saying
- 2:52Speaker 2: they love our culture, right. You know, we have a
- 2:54Speaker 2: lot of people on the left that say we don't
- 2:55Speaker 2: have a culture.
- 2:56Speaker 3: We do have a culture.
- 2:56Speaker 1: So we got lots of them.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Yeah, we definitely do. And I think that you've hit
- 3:02Speaker 2: on something because think about the way I'm thinking about
- 3:05Speaker 2: Sharia lah. They're trying so hard to bring that into America,
- 3:08Speaker 2: into Texas, into Texas. I saw that too. Think about
- 3:11Speaker 2: the way they treat their women, you know, as our
- 3:14Speaker 2: men are opening the doors for us in being our
- 3:18Speaker 2: you know, the masculine part of our family that we
- 3:22Speaker 2: love they are shaming them, punishing them, belittling, demeaning them.
- 3:28Speaker 2: That is part of their culture and they're trying so
- 3:31Speaker 2: desperately to bring that to America. That will not work.
- 3:34Speaker 2: There will be a revolution before that works. Because I
- 3:37Speaker 2: love that people saw first hand, because we were getting
- 3:40Speaker 2: a bad rap from the media outlets in all of
- 3:43Speaker 2: these countries, and that's one of the things that they said.
- 3:45Speaker 2: We love that we saw for ourselves that they're not
- 3:49Speaker 2: telling the truth. Now they can go back and tell
- 3:51Speaker 2: And the reason they're sad is because what they felt
- 3:54Speaker 2: was God's love. It was that kindness, you know, were
- 3:57Speaker 2: the if you're a Christian, you strive for the fruit
- 3:59Speaker 2: of the spear, you strive for the Holy you know,
- 4:02Speaker 2: the Holy Ghost to give you all of those things
- 4:05Speaker 2: that make us good, honest.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Money, joy, long suffering.
- 4:09Speaker 2: That's right, and they felt that they go home wherever
- 4:14Speaker 2: they are, and I guess they don't feel it the
- 4:16Speaker 2: same way. That's what that's what we continue to fight.
- 4:19Speaker 1: But there's also a bit of the founding in that
- 4:23Speaker 1: the people that came from Europe were fleeing a caste
- 4:27Speaker 1: system right that if you weren't upper, if you weren't
- 4:30Speaker 1: born to upper class. You were never making into upper class.
- 4:33Speaker 1: We came, they came to the colonies here, that came
- 4:35Speaker 1: to the US, and that was not the situation here.
- 4:38Speaker 1: The situation here was if you worked hard and you
- 4:41Speaker 1: were successful, and you were skilled, and you were talented,
- 4:44Speaker 1: you could absolutely rise up in this country. Yes, if
- 4:47Speaker 1: you were born with nothing, you could become a landowner.
- 4:50Speaker 1: You could, you could have your own farm. So there's
- 4:52Speaker 1: this idea that in the United States, again the Decoration
- 4:56Speaker 1: of Independence, all men are created equal, all men are
- 4:59Speaker 1: created That is not the founding idea of many of
- 5:03Speaker 1: these places in Europe where they still have this this
- 5:06Speaker 1: not everybody's equally so you don't have to If not
- 5:09Speaker 1: everybody's equal, then you don't have to necessarily treat everybody equally.
- 5:12Speaker 2: Well, the question then becomes, why do you want to
- 5:14Speaker 2: come live in our country and change it? Why do
- 5:17Speaker 2: you want to come here? If you can live that
- 5:19Speaker 2: way with your laws in your country, why do you
- 5:22Speaker 2: want to come to our free country and change the
- 5:25Speaker 2: way that we live, change the way that we believe
- 5:27Speaker 2: and how we treat each other. Doesn't make sense to me.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think part of that is that they
- 5:32Speaker 1: blame the wrong thing. For why their country's messed up,
- 5:35Speaker 1: they blame colonialism, and so they're trying to come to
- 5:38Speaker 1: the US to colonize it. If you like to ask
