Anna Faris's Comments About Her Religious Son Are Revealing

It matters who you marry because one day your kid might be trying to convert you. Something interesting is happening in America. Gen Z is more interested in organized religion than their parents. In the case of Anna Faris and Chris Pratt's son, he's actually trying to convert Anna Faris. It's an interesting story. Let's dive in. Kind of a fascinating interview the other day between Anna Faris and Chelsea Handler. I mean, that is a rare descriptor where I say fascinating, having anything to do with Chelsea Handler. Anna Faris was discussing a conversation that she had with her 14-year-old son, Jack. Who is religious. Now remember, Anna Faris was married to Chris Pratt. Chris Pratt, of course, is a practicing Christian. He is now married to Katherine Schwarzenegger. He has three children with her. And Anna Faris apparently was confronted by her son, who was talking to her about Jesus. And here's what she said. I think my son is, he's like as solid as a tugboat emotionally. He just doesn't get easily jarred. He handles situations really well. He is religious. Are you religious? No, I didn't grow up with religion. Okay. He's asked me to accept Jesus Christ. As your savior. Uh-huh. Okay. And I said, I told him that I would do anything for him, including this. But it's going to take a whole lot of long conversations. And he's impressive, actually. He's impressive. Because I try to challenge him. I'm like, do you think it's a luxury that you get to be pro-life? Do you think that's kind of a luxury? He's like, maybe. Okay, so a few things about this that are fascinating. First of all, good for her for having deep conversations as a kid, I suppose. It goes to show you, and I've said this many, many, many times. That when you get married to somebody, the first thing that you should be thinking is, how do we want to raise our kids? What values do we want to raise our kids with? And again, it doesn't mean that it's everybody's fault when a divorce happens. You might be aligned at one point, and then people change. That sort of stuff happens, obviously. One thing I know, that there's complete solidarity with me and my wife. I mean, we're in solidarity on pretty much everything in our life. But on this in particular, we are in dramatic solidarity, which is how we wish to raise our children. This is why when I give young people advice about dating, I always say date for values. Because you don't want a situation in which one day you brought your kids up with a religion, and then one of the parents comes in and tries to undermine that. That's a huge problem. It matters who you marry. I know, this is falling out of passion. You're supposed to just marry the person that you fall in love with. But here's the thing, set the preconditions before you fall in love with somebody. I know, this is not the way the movies tell you to do it. I know you think that you're just going to walk down the street, and you're going to be hit by the love bug, and then you're just in love with the person. Now you pick them with all their flaws, and all their ideological foibles, and all of your values differ. No, wrong. Set the guidelines at the very beginning, and you will end up with somebody who agrees with you on how to raise the kids. Which, after all, is the entire purpose of marriage. It is the entire purpose of the institution. Sure, it's great that two people love each other and live with each other. Sure, that's wonderful. But the purpose of marriage is the production and rearing of children. And how you create those children and rear them is the whole issue. So again, girls, boys, check your values before you decide who to date. Get to more on this in a moment. First, technology has made pretty much all of our wants and desires instant. Food arrives with just a tap. You can move money in seconds. You can buy virtually anything you want without leaving your couch. And usually that's convenient. There are some decisions, however, that should not be made before you've had a chance to stop, and see clearly, and talk to somebody. Abortion, unfortunately, has changed in exactly the same way as everything else. A woman facing an unexpected pregnancy can now order the abortion pill online, often before anyone has had the chance to tell her, you're not alone. There's help, and there's hope. This makes the work of Preborn more urgent, not less. Preborn Network Clinics meet women with compassion and practical support, including a free ultrasound. More than 80% of abortion-vulnerable women choose life after seeing their baby on an ultrasound at a Preborn Network Clinic. That's why you were made for this moment. Just 28 bucks provides one life-saving ultrasound. 140 bucks helps rescue five babies. Now, pound 250, say baby. That's pound 250, baby. Or give securely at preborn.com slash ben. That's preborn.com slash ben. Together, we can save lives one heartbeat at a time. Most important thing you're going to do today, dial pound 250, and use keyword baby. Another point to be made, there are smart young people who are embracing religion right now, and that's a great thing. I mean, she says it herself, Hannah Farris. She says that her 14-year-old son is really smart. He's with it. He's knowledgeable. And good for him. Really good for him. And it sounds like good job Chris Pratt is the dad for instilling religious values in his kid. But to me, this is the great tragedy always in any case of a broken family is when you have a mom and a dad who weren't on the same page. And you wish the best for everybody involved, but that makes it significantly more difficult, obviously. Now, meanwhile, speaking of broken families, I could not imagine being a child of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. What a disaster area. Just, I mean, honestly, I feel terrible for Northwest. So Northwest is, I believe, 13 years old. And she is now on the cover of Days magazine. First of all, no 13-year-old should ever be on the cover of any magazine ever for any reason at all. There's no reason why that should happen. Kids should be kept away from media. Media should be kept away from kids. It should be that simple. It is a manifestation of bad parenting to have your kids in public. Your kids should not be in the public eye. There's a, I'm extraordinarily guarded about my own children, like really, really guarded, which is why even when I tell stories on the air about my kids, you know, I tend to do it kind of rarely. I don't do it all that often. Speaking of which, I have to just say, quick errata, because I was told this by my niece. A few days ago, I talked about a story at a water park. Remember the story? And we talked about, you know, a young black kid who came up and started being insulting to my daughter and my niece. And I had suggested that my daughter responded to him. He had suggested that she was being mean to him because he was black. The truth is, he's trying to cut the line and use that as an excuse. He had said, you're doing this because I'm black. And she said, no. And he said, well, you think I'm stupid because I'm black. And then I'd said that my daughter said, no, I think you're stupid because your grammar is bad. I was wrong. And I was informed by my niece that I had to correct the record. So this counts as a correction on the record in front of millions of people. It was my niece who said, no, you're stupid because your grammar is bad. So apologies to my niece. The correction has been, in any case, putting the children aside, this is a disaster area. Northwest looks, I mean, she's a 13-year-old girl and she has blue teeth and piercings everywhere. What are you doing? Listen, I understand that I'm asking a lot for Kim Kardashian to try to be normal as a mother. What are you doing? And why don't you take your parental responsibilities a little more seriously? I understand that you're dating half of Hollywood at any given time. And that can't be great for your daughter. And the same thing is true for dad, who's running around doing random things all the time. There is a kid involved here. And this is quite bad. And by the way, for everyone, live life as though your kids one day will be able to use the internet. Because can you imagine Northwest at some point just Googling mommy and finding videos of rage? This is why, folks, try to be careful with your life from the youngest possible age. Be responsible. I know it's not a sexy message to be responsible. I know. But I promise you, your life is going to be so much happier. Your life is going to be so much better. And your kids are going to be so much healthier and so much better because of all that. Because otherwise, you end up with stuff like this. And I just feel terrible for her, honestly. It's really bad. What an amazing video you just watched. Wasn't that amazing?
