As others here, I see no reason for your paranoia that viewers dislike Chris. He literally came across as caring, understanding towards everyone, and including his parents. There is literally no reason to defend your husband's words here! Its actually concerns me a lot that YOU yourself feel a need to, in that you feel some concern that needs your strong words to protect Chris. UM, Chris did fine, by the way, how are you coping? Because that seems to be the real issue here. Um, don't hurt Chris if you don't respect him, just leave him.
Next, your words of: " That is what good Christian folks do " Um, LOL
The prison is full of 'Christian folk', clearly being Christian is NOT a a synonym of being good.
Actually I'd argue people believing in utter non evidenced based nonsense, likely do have other issues.
No one is against your husband, except the voice (you) inside your head! Which worries me for Chris's safety from you.

@pikestance8851 I appreciate your reply. Its true I am assuming an ulterior motive behind someone seemingly defending what were the most kindest words ever by Chris.
Through 1 short vid of Chris and then a (long) paragraph by his partner, I can't really make true judgements on her motives. It just comes across as odd or out of place by her, and thus comes the concern of why she'd need to back up her husband when he did perfect.
The Christian aspect is very concerning to me, even charity where what I see in reality is very wealthy pastors and churches, which clearly don't hold modern psychology as respectful (let alone any modern known science).
People can do good (such as charity) without having such outdated beliefs. This is not a Christian value not a Hindu value or any other, rather its a humanist value. THIS is what people do to help support others in need, NOT to get a claimed reward.
Read her post again, it is she who is judgy not me. She consistently tries to make out how Chris must have done something wrong that she needs to fix.
Um watching the vid, Chris did everything right. There is no need for such irrational defense or attack on others, if anything Chris needs to be praised, and not her or her imaginary friend.

"Have a blessed day". After trying to attack everyone!
The only guess of why you seem very angry is that Chris offered his home to this teen, and then finally took his parent's ashes into HIS home.
You are either jealous or very controlling, that you must have the last word to counter Chris's LOVING normal words. If anything Chris did much more good than anyone else commonly does. So sad that he couldn't get this troubled immature (seemingly sociopathic) teen in his house hey?
I don't know what it is, but if anything happens to Chris, YOU will be the prime suspect.
Clearly he didn't need your input, especially when he did much better without your words.
I shudder to think what you would have said in the same situation towards your niece, I'm betting it wouldn't have been as kind.
Don't worry, I already can tell you won't allow Chris to read here, your secrets are safe with the rest of the world!
I commend Chris, I'd say EVERY viewer does. He:
1. Welcomed this teen into his home for support (on top of the grandparents support, who had pictures of her everywhere throughout the house, and clearly did everything they could have done and more - just like Chris it seems).
2. He continues to hold his parent's ashes.
Oh boy, clearly you aren't fulfilling Chris in some way. < This I suspect is your twisted mind of judging others.
You can shove your outdated blessings nonsense somewhere else. Chris is clearly a good man, he doesn't need you to attack others for him.
How dare you minimize his support which is clearly a reflection of his parents (nearly exactly the same). There is absolutely no need for your input, what exactly did Chris do wrong? (inside your head).

My Dad use to belt us kids in his drunken rage, well every 2nd to 3rd night for I don't know, 10 years maybe.
One day my brother held a knife to my Dad's neck, I think he was about 15 at the time. I was so proud of my brother but remember also being shocked at the time, me also being the youngest.
If I look back at now both my parents long gone from cancer, I see that my thoughts of my loving Mom, that she wasn't loving at all to us kids. This cemented in when she put in her will that us kids (now grown adults) are to receive nothing, she actually had it written 3 times in the will.
Whilst I agree my oldest brother was mean (and ironically the favorite) the point is us kids weren't bad at all, how could we be if everything (including laughing) deserved a belting.
I hate my passed parents now. I hate they gave me a horrible upbringing, I hate how they left me with nothing. If I went back to the night my brother held a knife to my Dad's neck, I'd say DO it, and Mom too. As life couldn't have been worse than it is now. I understand how anger, whilst unreasonable to act upon, can place you in that position.
These days I fully understand reason, evidence, sceptism rationality you name it. I think that was the issue when I was a kid, I didn't understand how my parents were so unreasonable, so damn wrong. That they actually wanted my life to be hell, and paved the way for it.
My Mom's beach house with pool (they inherited money from their passed parents later on) she ended up fully giving to her 85yo 'boyfriend'. Who also happens to be a horrible person. Just everything about my parents I detest. I dream I'm back in time hitting them.
And I'm a pacifist.

@pikestance8851 Christian morals? Do you get your morals from the Bible?
Which is it: Slavery? Punishing people who don't love you? Bringing a sword in public?
There are so many immorals in the Bible and obviously OT, I don't think there's ever been a person EVER existing as immoral as the Bible God. Unless you're ok with world genocide? (which no doubt you are).
There is not one good moral thing a non Christian could not do.
Are you actually suggesting: Hindus, Muslims, Jews etc can't be moral?
As an online atheist I'm very proficient of knowing the Bible (and comparative religions!). Secular society (clearly much greater method than Jesus sins) is not where we get our morals from, although clearly secular values are a million times better than religious laws. We get our morals through humanitarianism, such as respecting all people no matter their gender etc. Do you respect 2 natural gays getting married and then discussing adopting children? If you don't then you aren't moral.
Whilst your Pope now says gays are ok (God changed his mind again) do you agree that a loving couple, no matter their gender, are moral? Or are they living in (now thrown out) Jesus sin?
I know you aren't as immoral as the Bible God, because you're not presently in prison.
Name me 1 thing that a Christian (or Catholic!) can be more moral than I can be through humanitarian means? I bet you can't.
Showing charity is a part of religious beliefs Negative. .Org sites far outweigh any Christian service, but even if Christians are compelled to show charity (by being demanded to) that still doesn't mean your specific unsubstantiated God exists. You have been lied to.
Your simple post here, shows me you don't converse with atheists much, as to get so many things wrong in 1 paragraph, either shows someone extremely ignorant or a liar. Which one are you?

We don't have any evidence of a God giving any gifts of human traits.
Whilst I have always found it odd that men are Christians, I did approach my daughter on this (she's a psychologist). She said that if men benefit from a clearly unreasonable unsubstantiated belief in a God, then it would be that much more difficult to help them understand their belief are ridiculous.
But then the crucial question came. I said, but why would women be Christians then? As clearly the Bible and Christianity itself has a low regard for women? Whilst I understand that both men and women can be Christian likely through indoctrination from youth (there are other common factors such as an unreasonable fear of Christian claimed hell, plus ignorance and many known others, such as misguided love etc etc too many to mention).
My daughter said: A Christian woman or girl would have a far greater chance of being supported and guided away from such an outdated belief that comes with zero evidence and clearly zero worthy reason to believe. But it clearly shows a person who has a victim mindset or inferiority complex of serving man etc. My daughter suspects for a female to be Christian is a way of them saying they are unworthy or less valued than others. I did mention that the Bible itself instructs Christians they are unworthy and broken, but demanded to get better. A very twisted mindset that would take many years to accept such horror.
I'd highly suspect your daughters still have a strong chance to be supported and guided to let go of this awkward belief that intends to belittle them for the rest of their life (although clearly these days most people recover from religion, usually in their 20's which means they had this ridiculous belief as children/teens, which is just horrible).
You however will likely defend your belief to feel unworthy, way more so than children would. As these days we clearly encourage children to be more wary and skeptical of such outdated beliefs, even if the parents are the perpetrator.
Its upsetting Emily that you believe your daughters were given the gift of discernment from a God! Its obvious we now know through modern psychology children have lots of abilities and value. Maybe they'll be judges one day? That would be good as there are a lot of horrible men out there abusing women (women are still in the discriminatory area, especially in religious areas). However the best thing you yourself could teach them (especially under the circumstances of your nonsense beliefs) would be skeptism, to not believe in others (generally men in religion) unsubstantiated claims. This is what I'd teach them and what I taught my own daughter when she was young. Hey may be they could be psychologists too one day? But the 1st step is to inform them is: scary monsters aren't true, its merely people with unhinged irrational beliefs.

Well clearly they weren't a loving family being Christian or mormons was it? According to that religion (the filth it is) the parents are suppose to love their defined monstrous God before their own kids.
I mean anyone (whoever) who demands: Love me and fear me or else I'll allow you to burn or be annihilated!!! We now know (since about 1950 onwards) is called an abusive relationship.
Plus 'loving Fathers' do NOT say you are born unworthy!!! As that's unloving remember.
HOWEVER, since you are almost 16, then be fully aware the human brain (reasoning as well) is still physically growing, it continues until about age 25. So things that ARE dramatic in your life now (depression, frustration or even lack of care by others) may seem totally differently viewed at 25.
For instance, its inconceivable that a 15yo should be concerned about not having their own loving family one day. Um, the chances are extremely high this will happen, not low! I mean right now it feels low for you, but seriously everything including your own reasoning on things will completely change.
So far you have Internet and a device to write on social media (YouTube) plus you must be getting food and water (to some extent) just to be able to comment.
No doubt things are tough for you, I get it, I hear you. Even I would prefer a much better life about me. But I'd pay a million dollars (which I don't have!) to be 15 again! Seriously put me in any environment (even a horrible gullible religous house) but being 15 again would be winning the universe jackpot! You are SO young that nearly everything is in front of you.
I mean too many things to say, but one day when you hold your own baby (as EVERYTHING points to you doing one day) and tears are falling down your face of how beautiful this time is, just remember you got there by getting through the times you have now at young 15 and onwards.
15? Its like if a magic genie came to me and said: I'll give you a billion dollars or be 15 in a kinda bad way. I'd be saying: Um yeah, I'd prefer to be 15 again even with the concerns.
However, I agree its hard for you presently. Support is available by people who can reason effectively and have respectful qualifications, most services for youth are FREE. Adults and society love helping the youth, that's you. Good luck.
