0:00 and we also uh we say one thing we're grateful for m so like so one day he was like Tao's like I'm not grateful for anything had a bad day and I was I was like not even for the hot shower you just took cuz like some you're Asian Dad dude some ████ they got to take cold they got to take cold showers Spider-Man [Music] rashgard okay we have a uh question from one of our rare Mong followers y Nick Jong hey hey hey you know something real quick about like you know how we did the news about the Mong commedian that got like lured and killed and stuff you know how small the M communities is so my buddy him and his wife had that comedian host an MC his wedding no way
0:52 waa I mean he is a pretty popular figure isn't he the story was big too yeah they they caught the People Too the suspects are in custody now but then who knows we're going to wait and see if they get bought their freedom cuz it's you know that sucks but Nick xang one of our M uh viewers he asked what do I do in a marriage where two people have different religious beliefs why' you get married in a first plate dumb start with that we lead with that first now that you're feeling real good can he make it so he he's already in the marriage I believe he is that is is no I'm just kidding I'm just kidding that's a huge conversation you got to have before getting that's a serious thing yeah I dated a girl where her mother was Catholic and her father was Muslim or
1:42 the other way around how did they make it work I just think like whoever's more devout oh or how open you are that's kind of how we are do you think it becomes a competition at a point on like which one's going to be the prevalent thing in the household yeah and then which religion is your kid going to have I don't know to me it just seemed like they were religious by like culture and ceremony not by like crazy devotion you know yeah like you know like like a lot of Asians say they're Buddhist but they ain't they just go to the ████ Temple to like play during New Year if you're Buddhist Buddhist don't go to the club and pop bottles yeah my uh I'm Christian and my wife's Catholic but I what's the secret I Mary uh for me I I I feel like they're so similar we don't really have conflicting beliefs but they are kind of
2:33 they both we both believe in Jesus so it's kind of it's not like I believe in somebody else what are their religions um I don't know but if he's Mong that will be cutting chicken heads off and ████ draining out the blood and ████ dancing around incense dude I guess if there's any there are examples out there of like couples who are married that are completely different religions but it is true depending on how hardcore they are like if they're not if they're kind of more lukewarm then it probably doesn't create a conflict but eventually it is something that you have to talk about when you have kids right yeah like I I'm raised Buddhist and like pretty crazy Buddhist I used to go to with my mom to like those like be a monk for a day Retreats or be a monk for a week Retreats and I'm like 8 years old and you take a vow of silence for 14 days like ████ like that you did that yeah I did that yeah I did
3:23 that ████ with my with my mom and my mom's been vegetarian since for like I don't know like 25 years of like my whole up bringing I had vegetarian meals at home so I lived a pretty crazy like Buddhist life I would say and then Gio's Catholic but I think what's most important for both of us is some sort of spirituality so right now we started adopting this thing with taica where we pray every night but really what it is when we pray it's just a way for uh cuz you know obviously like you try to do better than the Next Generation to provide and give them what you didn't have but then the backside to that is you ra you raise ████ ████ ass ████ and like like ████ like entitled ████ so we don't want to do that so we're kind of using the prayer as a way to like um it's more of going around when we pray of uh one you can't be selfish you can't be oh dear God
4:14 please give me that ████ toy yeah right it can't be that so we pray for other people like we prayed for Tiff we like oh one of our one of our friends uh one of our friends like you know she's going through operation hope so we we pray for other people and dude F and we also uh we one thing we're grateful for m so like so one day he was like Tao like I'm not grateful for anything had a bad day and I was I was like not even for the hot shower you just took cuz like some you're Asian Dad dude some ████ they got to take cold they got to take cold showers Spider-Man Rashard there's something you're grateful for so I think the the like distilling it is more about like what is spirituality and it can come in many forms that's kind of what we're teaching him so we don't know if he's going to get baptized or take him to all the Buddhist festivities or anything like
5:05 that but just kind of having some sort of spirituality in the world greater than you type cool well that's better that you're not trying to gravitate him towards one or the other of like religious sex that'd be fun if you guys had a competition to see who could take make who's got a better God who got is better I think that's what he should do it's like now that you're in this marriage it's locked in arm wrestle for it the yeah whoever wins the arm wrestle or coin toss that's the religion you choose cuz that's the God who came through for that coin toss yep oh let him intervene those are pretty different in in in like wildly like the ways are like let's say that you were Christian and then you were Muslim like when something good happens and your kid is like thanking like do I thank God or Allah I think they both have the same God too they're technically both the
5:55 same God you oh wait careful careful careful Allah means god like old Arabic or whatever yeah but is it the same guy though isn't it the same guy they got the same homies like Jesus got the same homies I Think Jesus was actually saying Allah because of the language that he was speaking I thought Jesus was in the Quran too he's he's acknowledged but he's not a god he's not the pro like yeah well they're all they're all abrahamic religions meaning like they all in that Middle East era yeah I think inar they batt his in his like Hebrew language and stuff he was saying like technically Allah too right yeah I mean I I take it like another industry everybody knows each other but everybody's doing their own thing yeah I think it's like the yeah like they're all Spiderman just played by different people same multi they're all Spiderman
6:47 Marvel has made us understand life so much better that's a great way they're more related but they beef the hardest cuz like they don't give a ████ about a Hindu they're like I don't care about them but I ha me some ████ Je Jewish or whatever you know like they see like elephant face and they're like I don't care about elephant that's not us that's so true yeah they'll be like ah they're ████ damned anyway and then they they care more about like like Protestants and Christians have a ageold ████ rivalry dude like they went to Wars over that ████ you know so like then they're the closest same with the Shia and Sunni Muslims they're Muslims but they ████ fight the hardest you know they really fight yeah hopefully he's he's not one of those this a very broad question the adjacent ones he's like watching going
7:38 yeah I am I'm Shiite she's I I have seen in more like you guys know me in more examples like even if there's like a difference in religion in like the the couple it if they can live together it's not as big a question as whether or not they're choosing to raise their child in a certain religion you know what I mean so they can coexist and Co habitat if you will but it's always just about like what are you going to do for your children that becomes like the question of what religion is more important you know like for me and Tiff like Tiff is Catholic and I'm kind of like I don't know Scientologist yes yeah sign me up for that Mark me down is a Scientologist yeah that's my guy right there yeah she's Catholic you're clear i' I've spent time on elron HUB Road I know where that's at you know what I'm talking about um but like we never really talk about religion that much cuz
8:29 she's like more culturally like religious right but she was like the only like it's like it's a make belief argument cuz we don't have a kid right but she goes first time I've heard you say that let's pretend this cup is a baby our baby would you want it to be Catholic would you want to be I throw it on the ground and I start fresh no but like she was like I want her baby to get baptized and I was like for what we don't even go to church so like that's like the only argument we've had where I'm like we don't go to church like the the point of I I I'm I'm ignorant I'm a ████ I don't know anything about is it more for her family cuz some sometimes people do that kind of but at the same time I asked her I was like what's the main reason why we going to get this baby baptized and she's like to be sa yeah yeah to be safe and like just in case and I was like oh God I was like just in case what that's funny in in case the C go to hell dude
9:21 you know what the trick is as soon as she goes you be Tiff and ask me do you think we should get our baby baptized oh yeah for sure the trick is chicks or so ████ lazy you give it to them it'll never happen they're so ████ lazy dude don't even fight it dude if you fight it it'll become a thing yeah and I did for sure and they'll prove you wrong the whole time and the oh my god I'm an idiot the whole time I was like I was like what's the point Gio wanted to get Tao baptized in communion whatever oh for let's do it and then what 6 years later hasn't happened he has a real kid that's why I have two dogs that's a good hack all right fight it it becomes a thing just don't fight it now she has to prove you wrong cuz women live their lives to prove you wrong I'll go home today unannounced and be like hey babe if we have a baby I think we should get a baptized no no no no it has to be from her has to be from her cuz it's going to
10:13 happen that's going to happen now it's like oh that's a great idea I would be a supportive wife you can't have the idea unless you go be like hey if we have a kid I think Scientology should be a conversation yeah yeah what about my religion so if I bring it up and I say yes I have to try not to laugh and like give away You're Going To Give It Away you're going to give it away did he give try to be underwater your ears are going to turn red did he give any specific reasons why like there have been issues or anything like that chopping off chicken heads and ████ dancing around incense right I think it's funny because like growing up 7day Adventist like we we were told straight up it would never work with any other religion y they were like we're the ████ chosen ones everyone else is wrong cuz the idea is that why would you invest in a relationship with somebody that you know is going to go to hell because like oh this isn't the end all game like you have to find a partner
11:04 that will transcend into heaven with you like and we called them Sunday worshippers you remember that they're Sunday worshipers that's like that's like the derogatory term they're like lame and ████ they're not really about that life that's the 7 avist N word we keep the real Sabbath yeah but the thing for SDA is like lifestyle wise it's pretty hardcore so if you're not really a SDA anymore well the funny thing is it's just like you were saying it's like hardly find me an SDA person that's really following all of the guidelines oh so they're kind of fakeing the funk too no they just make up their own rules too they'll be like I'm even more SDA than you because like I'm super vegetarian my vanilla ice cream didn't have sugar in it like who cares but then but there's a thing like there's a thing where like I I distinctly remember seeing these like paintings of in like in my textbook of like it'll be like a father holding the kids and he's like transcending to
11:54 heaven and the mom's just down there like like trying to last minute be Sav but she couldn't cuz she was a ████ cuz she was a ████ Catholic yeah or Sunday worship yeah Sunday worshiper but it's like a thing where that that was always put in my mind that there's no shot not even a hey we could have been friends though yeah so that would have this would yeah that's okay that's acceptable but it's so weird Okay in SDA probably now it's changed a lot I'm sure yeah now because the church population is probably so desperate I think a lot of churches in general had to loosen up cuz they're like their recruitment slow you know people stop coming Church the Gates of Heaven could loosen up cuz recruitment was low it's true that's why I think religion is ████ because they're changing the rules all they're always changing the rules yeah like come on bro it's going on right now I think that's why if you just look at all these
12:44 different religions as team sports like Muslims are crushing it right now yeah they're Top Dog worldwide world what the way that you said it they're ranked number one they're growing they're growing they have the biggest population yeah I'm thinking about converting of being a dude they're growing cuz they're serious about their ████ dude they'll be like yeah they don't really bend their rules they'll ████ you up that's true man but you guys got do you guys know some Muslim homies that like are Muslim but like don't really do the all of them basically they're so not har in America Bon Ling they're Haring every day they're hooking up with hella girls and ████ there's nobody that's truly following what they're supposed to do in the religion cuz they would they would be the god God there everybody's god is perfect I was offered ████ during Ramadan dude what
13:34 religion I think Habib is the only true Muslim brother him boib khabib yeah he don't even Shake women's hands there's a highlight re on the internet of like women like trying to shake his hand and he's like he has to whisper in the ear and be like I'm sorry I can't I can't touch you I'm Muslim you can't you can't imagine him never having one impure thought like hey she's got a big butt nope he would never dude he would never he would suck himself before that happens his little ears tells sees a girl big his I start switching yeah don't think you know another one that's kind of crushing it right now Mormons they just keep winning dude so do you think Mor a Mormon and a Muslim could just take over the world if they fused their religions I don't know if they just population wise Mormons aren't as big as you know Muslims Muslims are pretty there's a lot but they both like hella wives too right they got that in
14:25 common they population strong they keep not of women in the world Mormons they keep you know the white pure who has a lower Scandal rate though Mormons lower I think so just by numbers not if they're cool with soaking though you know what I mean soaking in there we're good I think Mormons I think Mormons are like the weird Brothers of Christians but then they stay so lowkey that everyone's just like ah they're like they're just super hardcore Christians yeah the Amish too I mean is it the yeah the Amish everyone thinks they're just Jo like they're joke but they're the ones that's going to survive the ████ anything are there Mormon terrorists nah oh yeah that's a good question they terrorize you with their religion like Believe in Us Believe in Us hey here's this book we show to your door Orthodox Jews they don't go back on their ████ Orthodox anybody technically doesn't
15:15 mess around that's true yeah you're right I had a Mormon girlfriend in middle school and she was like one of the hottest girls in school and it was such a flex for me cuz I was like 49 shorter than everybody holding hands this like hot Mormon chick and her and her sister were hot um they were they probably be down for you it's in their religion marry both of them what what ethnicity was she I don't even know wow ambiguous Mormon even ask like that you don't know what the ████ she is yeah what the ████ is just you were dating her you never asked no my conversations weren't that deep in like seventh grade it was like holding hands and making out oh yeah that's all you need I guess it it almost seems like when you look at this from the point of view of Insider of these religions it's like no shot but then if you look at it in terms of life if you're not super hardcore any two religions could have any yeah if
16:06 you're not hardcore right but I think it is what Anthony said like it really comes down to like when you have a kid that's probably the biggest like like point of contention right but if your religion allows like multiple like Japan you can be Shinto Buddhist and Christian you could be all those things at once yeah it's kind of like oh yeah that is like when Christianity came to Japan they would be like yeah like we could take on your God they could kind of sit with our Gods that's cool and then it's just everybody come together wasn't there a lot of friction at one point too though yeah they got hang okay but like after that less than 1% of Japanese is Christian but yeah you're right it almost seems like for for Nick Jong if he's Mong that's probably more important than what religion his partner is as long as they're also Mong that's probably better Mong is the one where they have all these like Gatherings and everybody fights each other they like yearly fights like they like the New
16:57 Year traditional fight fight oh yeah that happened this year again pretty it's pretty Dependable that it's going to occur I think it also depends on how much empathy they have you know how like there's the actual like religion religion but there's also like religions that people like um their own personal like religion almost like oh I don't like oysters you know and that's how I've always Liv but then so if you take that into consideration if there are like things that are like hell Nos and Hell yeses in each other but if you've come to accept that then you can accept the hell Nos and Hell yeses of the other part there's way more similarities for religions right like it's really just general conduct on how to behave in the world and it's like I don't know any religion that goes you should ████ kill everybody on site all of them says don't ████ kill people all of them
17:48 says don't be a jackass right yeah yeah Jackass the word is translated so what happens in the case how about this case one of them is a devout Christian the other is completely atheist how do they make that work well they made it work when they ████ yeah that's true yeah they're not that develop yeah and it's so also one of those things where it's like before marriage every couple needs to have the what religion are we going to raise our children conversation because then you're going to K two birds once Stone right there you're going to talk about the religion and you're going to talk about the children so they're like we're not going to have children that's a whole thing you need to talk about before and be open to change to that yeah because if you guys are 25 having that disc question you guys are ████ dumb as ████ anyways by the time you're 35 you're going to change the policy like don't be glued to ████ that you thought of as kids you know that's
18:38 so true cuz then at that point once you're married and you're locked in it's like okay do we want to make this work or do we not want to make this work yeah like we're 60 but we promised when we're 23 like what the ████ was there anything that you forgot to talk about with Tiff before marriage and then you were like a ████ not really like a lot of it is like on the Fly it's on on the go it's like when these conversations come up it's like we handle it or we keep fighting about it until we handle it you know like that's how we kind that's actually pretty healthy though like we it was just like all right well are we going to break up cuz you're ████ Catholic and I'm Scientologist like are we is this going to be a thing break up religion your idea of who you are changes over the years right and how you view your religion and how you practice and you do
19:29 all that stuff like you might be devout at like a 25-year-old and you think you understand you follow all the in you know all the all what you believe the structure is but really this is a game sport again like your church might operate completely different from another church and so we don't really know the specifics to their like religions and all that stuff and how rigid they are so it's like I don't see why it would be difficult at the same time I can see why it would be tremendously difficult we just don't know enough details I like your I like your think of you just got to fight until it works out argue every day argue with love though yeah everything all right Nick Jong you heard it argue with love for your situation let us know how it goes a
20:20 little physicality don't be afraid to get in there punch like a punch a little slaping tickle yeah slaping tickle good throw a couple a couple non-lethal rights and lefts yeah to the legs is fine not the jaw armpits and the legs and the thighs good luck man naturally dark area just make sure [Music] she's
