  • Great. Now I have to search the comments to find out what Unreal318 said..

  • John IS bigger than Jesus. It's okay though, people were a lot shorter in biblical times.

  • More people belives in beatles than Jesus!!!!

  • 1. Speak the truth

    2. Get flamed at.

    *facepalm*

  • Comment removed

  • No one can actually disprove Jesus being on earth..if 'seeing is believing' why should I believe in John Lennon? The Gospels are actually proven historically reliable by historians today. Not saying John is bad..I love him, and it's sad that what he said in a private interview was totally taken out of context.. but seriously? Why are you hating on Christians? Not cool..

  • But the Beatles are really more famous than Jesus ( with all the respect for all the religions) but Jusus is popular only with Christians while the Beatles are popular everywhere

  • to all dont believe in jesus go and fuck your self 

  • @Unreal318 well that's very christian of you

  • @Unreal318 If you're gonna promote Christianity, at least be Christian. You fucking hypocrite...

  • @Unreal318 classic christian

  • I'm a Christian, the way I see it, at least we know for sure that the Beatles actually existed. Also the Beatles are bigger than Jesus.

    period

  • actually what john said is true because the only people that give a flying fuck about jesus are christians. on the other hand everyone like the beatles christians, muslims, jews, hindus etc EVERYONE loves the beatles the beatles are universal, they have no religion they sing to everybody not a particular group of people. so YES THE BEATLES ARE MORE POPULAR THAN JESUS!!!!! id be awesome if someone started a beatles religion though! :D i would worship paul <3!!!!!

  • @lovejohnniebear24 Sorry 4 you..:'(

  • john lennon popualar than jesus? how can he be more popular than himself?

  • @ryandeakin5878 its easy.

    John is more popular , or famous than Jesus :)

    We dont know that Jesus have been on this earth ever , but about John - we know the truth!

    And he has the TRUTH . today too!

    Any thing , what in relation/connection with religion/ or mainly with catholicism thats unfair - unbelieveable - lying all of them .

    Just liars.

    end.

  • The Beatles, unlike Jesus, are actually real.

  • @NorwegianCommie lol. i hope youre 12

  • Id take the Beatles over Jesus any day of the week

  • John's a smart guy and it's a shame that so many people misinterpreted that statement...

  • Jesus sux crusty bellends. The Beatles produce shit stainage on Jeezes dressing gown

  • Beatles > God .

  • Why does everyone keep going **** instead of simply saying 'hell'?! It isn't a bad word! It's just as real as heaven, except nobody likes talking about it!

  • @XenoType008 Heyy...Jesus WAS a Jew! Read the Bible!

  • The Beatles ARE more popular than Jesus. 

  • @Smooth0vibrations You cant be more popular than Jesus, you can only match the Message ;)

  • @Smooth0vibrations well i heard of jesus before i heard of beatles i heard about jesus when i was 7 and beatles when i was 12

  • @somany5 Yea, because Christianity is important in alot of western cultures. The reason The Beatles are more popular is because there are tons of different religions in the world that don't even acknowledge Jesus, but; these religions acknowledge The Beatles. Not for "spiritual enlightening" or some religious thing like that, but for damned good music that everyone and anyone can enjoy. Music is popular with all, Religion is popular with a society.

  • @Smooth0vibrations u are going to hell

  • I bet Ringo was stoned throughout this whole process

  • Comment removed

  • People were always either trying to worship them or make them out to be bad people. There is such a novelty to fame...

  • Why are all the comments about people arguing over their imaginary friends?

  • One word: Imagine.

  • God created the world and all living things. The Beatles sold a couple million records. Jesus died on the cross so that you wont have to go to hell, all you need to do is believe on him and repent from your sins. If you reject him, like John did and many of you do, you will go to hell.

    What John said about The Beatles being more popular than Christ is likely correct but all that means is there is less people going to heaven

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz The bible is the best fantasy book, no?

  • @Joshisourfriend Dude, the bible is the living and truthful word of God, it would be very unwise to knock it if you havent read it before, and even more unwise if you had. Gods word is eternal

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz I have read it before and i do believe many teachings in it by Jesus. I just don't believe in Moses and the Red sea and jokes like that.

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz What about the Harry Potter books? It's was written. Why isn't that true?

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz you make me lol so hard. >:D "its the word of god!!" no its the word of old sexist men who didnt have lives. stop believing in fairy tales you know whos god?john fucking lennon is god. amen lennon to you. i hope you see georges magical healing light save your self from eternal damnation by listening to the beatles. i hope you join us on october the 9th for the celebration of our savior. AMEN lennon!

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz thanks for the laugh

  • @mybodyisreggieful No problem, but you wont be laughing in hell.

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz Yes I will

  • Comment removed

  • @mybodyisreggieful It's actually not a joke, I really hope for your sake you will accept Christ, he loves and doesnt want anyone to go to hell

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz Guess I'm going to hell, oh well

  • @mybodyisreggieful Why do you reject God?

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz he rejects god probably because he is intelligent and instead believes in evolution, for which there is evidence, unlike god which relies more on blind faith. sorry for butting in on another persons conversation but that's just one possible reason

  • @beatlebum1000 Thats how I think too. Evidence vs Faith, I mean come on. Why wouldnt you go with evidence? I cant stand it when people take a harmless phrase (we're more popular than jesus) and mold it into something stupid like he is the anti christ, and stupid things like that.

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz God isn't real.

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz What about Muslims, Hindu, or other religions? Are they going too hell? How do you know that your religion is right, and theirs isn't? Is it very likely that your 1 religion is right out of the hundreds of other religions?

  • @theDoubleA1245 Religeon is a made up way to get to heaven. A christian is someone who is born again. Who has trusted jesus as their savior. Catholics call themselves christians but their teachings are wrong. They think they get to heaven by being baptised as a child and doing good works. But the bible clearly says "not by works of righteousness which we have done but according to his mercy he saved us". Same with muslims, There is 1 way to get to heaven, through Jesus Christ

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz You still don't understand what I am talking about. How do you know that the Protestant bible isn't wrong, and Catholic version right.

  • @theDoubleA1245 Because the catholic version was changed from the original, verses are changed around, KJV is direct. Plus catholics dont even believe parts of the bible are real

  • @TheMaritimeBoyz So if you were born into a Catholic family, what would you be?

    What do you think about the non-radical Muslims? Are they not Muslim for not believing in Jihad? Destroy all infidels is stated in the Quran.

  • @theDoubleA1245 I would recommend watching this video, its not very long and very insightful /watch?v=1IAhDGYlpqY

  • @theDoubleA1245 simple: if you know the law, you'll be judged by the law...

  • @joshuademoraes That doesn't help your argument. So if I did not know that killing was against the law, God wouldn't punish me?

  • @theDoubleA1245 exactly...you'll be judged according to your knowing about the law...

  • @joshuademoraes That is ridiculous. So you are saying serial killers can still get into heaven????? Or rapists?

  • @theDoubleA1245 unless they don't have a basic knowing about the law, yes, they have still a "CHANCE". But it depends exclusively of God. Schoking??? But that's the truth that nobody is able to accept...

  • @joshuademoraes That is ridiculous. So if a very good citizen stole a small thing when he was a child, he may go to hell, but a serial killer who doesn't know the law can get into heaven!?!?!?!?! STUPID

  • @theDoubleA1245 Jesus said that reign of the heavens belong to children. They are innocents. Hell, literally speaking, doens't exist. If you died you simply died, it's over.

  • @joshuademoraes You are so stupid. The Bible says if you do not accept Christ as your Lord and savior you will not go to heaven but go to hell.

  • @theDoubleA1245 well, I'll go to he hell someday, you'll go theretoo, in fact all of us. It's our destiny son...

  • @joshuademoraes So then what is the point of religion if you are going to end up in hell anyway?

  • Comment removed

  • @JimColyer You know nothing of John to say that

  • My baby Johnny...breaks my heart knowing that he was in tears before this conference :'( How could some people do that to such an insecure man? And for what...publicity. Do they not realize John was human and had feelings just like everybody else?

  • @xXOneHotLennonXx plus, he was making a joke. he didn't mean it, poor thing

  • Poor John. He's so nervous. Look how fast he's chewing that gum. Look how fast he's blinking. He's slipping up in his words. Makes me sad to see him stressing out over a misunderstood statement. :(

  • White Americans of the middle and upper classes have their own version of "Jesus" that probably has very little to do with the real one.

  • Of course, it was the most blasphemous and shocking thing of the time! But, these were narrow times in contrast to today and i think if it had happened now, nobody would have given a second thought to it. If Lennon had said this today he would have been more than right. Jesus Christ plays a second fiddle to drink, drugs, rock and roll obesity.....all in the name of Christmas. As a Christian i celebrate Christs birthday in my heart. I'm not willing to risk tainting it anywhere else.

  • When people get in trouble, they always say things were taken out of context.

  • Well, I AM Jesus and I don't feel particularly offended that Lennon was more popular than me.

  • @AlastairLynn See? Everyone flipped shit for nothing. Can you get a plague up in this shit anytime soon?

  • @2wives1prophet ..What do you "believe" or know?

  • I'm a Roman Catholic. I was raised in that religion and taught about strong faith in Jesus and God. I went to a prestigious catholic school and still lives w/ that religion till I die, but I think I won't disagree w/ John. He said that not to insult Jesus because really, not all people believes in Jesus you see. And at that time, Beatles is really more popular than Jesus. He was very right.

  • @misscarly12 Sorry but Catholicism is wrong, the teachings are very false

  • @NiallJenkins6 Talking about beliefs, I think nothings wrong w/ that. I believe in bible but I can't avoid to think the same like some ppl. That some little words there are somewhat customize already and the interpretation isn't exactly like what Jesus said. And I kinda believe some of it is wrong. Like John said, he believed in God and teachings of Jesus but the interpretation made it all very wrong.

  • @misscarly12 Sorry, but you can't really say that. Some of it cant be wrong, because the bible is the unfailing word of God, it is 100% true. There are a lot of mixed up interpretations, like Catholics. Which are wrong, you just need to read the bible simply and not mix up things

  • @NiallJenkins6 How do you know it is 100% true? It is a very radical statement to say that something is 100% true.

  • @NiallJenkins6 How are they wrong? Are you comparing them to your views? In that case a Catholic person could say your religion is very false. And so on.

  • @misscarly12 I think you are one of the most open minded religious people on this comment section. How could something as harmless as bigger than Jesus, be molded into something so cruel as calling him anti christ, etc.

  • @misscarly12 You r awesome! <3

  • John Lennon was 100% correct the Beatles were bigger than Jesus - how many people got Beatles records for Christmas presents thousands and thousands and thousands I bet....its Christmas day in a couple of days time how many people are going to think about Jesus?? when was the last time we seen images of Jesus at Christmas Jesus doesn`t even appear on Christmas cards anymore because Christmas is not about the birth of Christ its about stress, spending money and getting drunk

  • john lennon said give peace a chance, Catholicism systematically raped thousands of children and is responsible for the deaths of millions of people throughout history. to me lennon is not only bigger than jesus, he is deserved of such a place. some people would call it false idols, i would call it a realisation that organised religion just does not work. something that lennon also promoted, he spoke on the harm thst religion had on the world and ever changing shape of society

  • @kahuna3901 You cannot say anything more truthful. Most wars were probably started on religious bases.

  • @2wives1prophet a simple math equation doesn't compare to the theory of evolution, thats right a theory because that is all it will ever be, and I don't need to watch a second of it, it's all bullshit, nothing but lies, I dont need the video, because the video is an opinion, not a fact no matter how many times you try to compare other things to it that dont make sense

    Like I said before they aren't even correct, so why do I have to worry and besides, you would have a worse position than me

  • @2wives1prophet oh of course i got to school, i was taught it in my years at high school, i know all about evolution, i choose to reject it because it is a fallacy

    Not every scientist believes it you know, and I don't care about some Youtube videos that proves nothing more than what the scientists of the day 'thought" happened.

    What does it matter, you dont even believe Islam is right, and I told the modern day muslims in the middle east say were going to hell but Muhammad never said that

  • @2wives1prophet if it is a proven fact then why doesn't everyone believe in it hmm?

    So let me get this straight, you think because a couple scientists got together and made a small observation about how humans were created, that proves that there are deities existing beyond this world anywhere? You tell me this, I die and this is true, I cease to exist, I die and I am right, I have eternal life, I can live a happy life and be a Christian, in fact I do but I think my odds are alot better

  • @2wives1prophet evolution is a theory not a fact, and even if it were, it doesn't disprove God's existence

    Oh i learned about evolution a lot, I probably studied more about evolution, then you have read the Bible, you could learn a thing or two by reading it after all it is the best selling book ever written :)

    If evolution were a fact, everyone would believe in it but its not so give that one up buddy, and who knows maybe dinosaurs lived in separate parts of the world to be honest i dont care

  • @2wives1prophet lol oh you are one of "those" people, so tell me then, if we evolved from apes, why are there some still here?

    The rules before Christianity formed were revolved around Judaism, we believe in the same god, we just believe Jesus is our savior, when he proclaim to be the savior, the ones who believed him were Christians and the ones who denied him were Jewish

  • @2wives1prophet The founder Muhammad would disagree, its the Muslims who wrote the Qu'ran "based" off of his teachings, Muhammad never said anything bout Christians , kinda how other denominations misinterpt the Bible, not every Christian has the Bible completely understood, and Christianity was founded off another religion, and Judaism has been around since the beginning of time, i wasn't debunking anything, so what happened to someone who died in 621? Hmmm?????

  • @2wives1prophet I am assuming you didn't pay attention in history class, Muhammad even said that we are "people of the book", the only ones who hate the Christians are the extremeists over in the Middle East, I don't even know why we r discussing Islam, they aren't even right, and He isn't destroying my life, He is saving it, practing Christianity promotes good values you know, and btw speaking of Islam, tell me this, it was founded in 622, what happened before that if it didn't exist hmmmm?

  • @2wives1prophet lol yea key word "could", and that was satan, and besides in Islam, it is a works basis in order to achieve access into heaven, because remember, Christians and Jews are "people of the book", we are respected in the Qu'ran, and big deal, If i dont do the five pillars, i wont get the 72 virgins? Big whoop, and the qu'ran says nothing about faith getting into heaven, but Christianity does, and you can be a Christian and still live a good and fun life, fun doesn't revolve around sin

  • @2wives1prophet no not blindly believe, this was a man who performed miracles in front of many witnesses and no one believes in pink unicorns in the right mind, there are over 2 billion people on this earth who believe this man and they have an incentive to believe, you guys don't, if we believe and we r right we go to heaven, if we r wrong and u r right, nothing will happen, but if you don't believe and we are right, you are sent to hell for eternity, but if ur right then we both cease to exist

  • @2wives1prophet You believe god doesn't exist without evidence, He is out of this realm, no human can determine that His existence is true or not and I chose to believe this, my parents and education have just helped me, the choice was mine all along

  • @2wives1prophet He doesn't sort you out because He gave you free-will to follow Him or to reject Him, and right now your blowing it and we aren't shitting over His legacy, we are praising Him and glorifying His name

  • @2wives1prophet lol the 21st century dont make it any less real , and He aint dead, He is watching you right now and you couldn't even imagine what He would do you brother :)

  • @2wives1prophet um wrong, he started a religion to save us all, the ones who chose to start wars over it are just people who disagree and want to end it any way they can't

  • It is easy for anyone to imagine that it would be very intimidating and unnerving to observe people, whether in small and limited company, and moreso in large throngs, who are physically destroying your merchandise - be it already sold, or not - and expressing themselves in a mob mentality in the course of that. You'd imagine a worst-case scenario of yourself being there and being noticed and identified by the mob.

  • А почему все забыли, как христианство "насиловало" людей в средних веках?

    А у Beatles все песни про любовь.

    And why everyone has forgotten how Christianity "raping" people in the Middle Ages?

    And the Beatles songs about love.

  • Beatles were wrong, I believe it was Chuck Norris was bigger than Jesus

  • im a huge beatles fan, but the beatles can't save you, only Jesus can.

  • @nightcrawler511 So... a fictional character can save me?

  • @skiiddo There is not even one historian on this planet (Russia couple of years later being excepional) who would say that Jesus Christ is a fictionaly character. The question you have to ask yourself is different. Which is: was He insane? Did He believed what he was saying? Was He deciver? Or did He really was what He claimed to be - the Son of God. But don't go everywhere and say that He was a big teacher an so on, He didn't lef us with doubt about it.

  • I am seeing homophobic, idiotic and offensive comments. First of all, Lennon wasn't a homosexual @trifulquita15 and even if he was, Does it even matter what his sexuality was?

    @antinazicholos5 Please, Remeber that the testaments were written by Man not by God. And don't defend a religion that justified God's massacre of millions of infants.

    @trifulquita15 The Beatles have satanic fans? Doubt it, A lot of their music is about love. John Lennon was stating a fact, He never said Jesus was stupid.

  • Lennon was murdered by one of his fans

    All these Beatles fans are sick satanic bastards

  • I'm a Christian, and I am proud to say that I'm not taking sides in any of this. John Lennon was a human being like all the rest of us who just gave his honest opinion in an interview. It wasn't his fault America took it the wrong way. And why are you guys putting down Jesus when in fact John wasn't saying that at all!

    It's 1966 repeating itself over and over.

  • This is probably the only intelligent comment I've seen in this video (but I stopped looking at 4 months back). As a Christian, I feel it is not my place to judge John for what he said. What he said was not intended to mock Jesus or start a debate about religion, and I'm not sure why so many feel they need to do so in response to it. All he really meant was he and the Beatles were more popular than Jesus at the time - and he was right.

  • @AtomicBluRadioVision I'm glad that I can agree with nearly everything you've just said.

    At least someone can actually think straight to comment on what REALLY happened back then.

  • @AtomicBluRadioVision

    You said it best. I happen to agree with you 100% and John was taken out of context. As a Christian, it is not my place to judge anyone and I think you got it in one.

  • What the Christians of that time and the Christians now, you and I and the rest, need to do with something like this is - not shoot the messenger. Not get upset at John for speaking a truth but to ask ourselves WHY is a pop music group more popular than Christ and WHAT can we do about it?

  • Lennon means a lot more to me than Christ.

  • The are more famous than jesus

  • Yes John, you are bigger than Jesus! Your songs will last forever and applies to all times, bible doesn't.

  • people were much smaller back then, so i imagine they were all bigger than jesus!

  • It always bothers me to this day seeing these Christian nutcase kids burning piles of Beatles albums. Do you know how much these would be worth on eBay nowadays? Holy Crap!

  • 42 people are atheists

  • just like brian harvey saying ectasay tablets arnt that bad,

    your famous

    dont say it

  • ALL I GOT TO SAY IS THAT JESUS ROSE FROM THE DEAD AND WHERES JOHN HUH I BELIVE IN JESUS AND JESUS IS MY SAVIOR

  • @Chippy215Boss well good for you.

  • @Chippy215Boss Great for you, but this is inrelavent. Besides, people take what John said way to seriously, I think even Jesus thought these people overreacted

  • I belive in Jesus

  • @Chippy215Boss You believe in john lennon ?

  • @96billy96 i like the fact that John belives in peace and love but he cant talk crap about other religns

  • @Chippy215Boss why the fuck not? he can say whatever he wants to say.

  • Aвтор, скажите на милость откуда вы это взяли, что он "популярнее Иисуса Христа", xaxaxa. And to the rest :John's purpose was singin,and he knew that he was a flawed man otherwise, Jesus' was preaching&be an example,so if Lennon preached&Jesus were a beetle singer-d make no sense.

  • john lennon IS jesus.

  • @ninopoli99 yeah, and you're a certified moron.

  • LUKE 12:10 And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.”  John has spoken no blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. But he also has spoken no blasphemy against the Son of Man. He’s been talking about popularity or the attitude of the people. So, another group of people misunderstood his remark about people’s attitude. It seems that John himself had very little about that massive people’s conflict.

  • @Alextropik the very moment I identify something I am reading as a quote of scripture, I instantly stop reading it and I can promise you that everybody else that doesn't believe in this garbage, does exactly the same thing.

  • The Beatles write better songs than Jesus. Jesus was a terrible singer.

  • @Androidwebber Lennon was homosexual, Chapman one of his lovers killed him cuz he was jelous. Why gay people are violent?

  • @Androidwebber Jesus wasn't even a musician.

  • First of all, lennon wasnt anti christ.

    Just because someone doesnt believe in a god it doesnt make them anti christ, if anything it makes u rational.

    Why on earth would u believe in stupid shit like a talking snake and a magical garden. And in books like the bible who were writtrn by men in a time period where people didnt know wat an atom was , or wat a cell was.

  • @jayven009 hello pal...w/ all due respect 2 ur beliefs..,i would like 2 make an healthy argument w/ wat u tackled..obviously im on affirmative side...first off i strongly believe dat not all things in this life are explainable by human on his highest attainable thinking..even things dat are only under the sun . i believe dat above all these majestic things way beyond our best we can do....are not accidentaly happened..there is a someone scientifically do this all.dat is wat i call GOD...

  • @jayven009 if u can bear w/ me my friend..i still continued 2 answer on @metallimeister dat u may read.u know lennon said dat in innocence & u know sometimes in life [more oftenly] becoming a famous distances us to humility,makes us high minded..i mean not all..but if john really knows God & Christ in honest conscience, he'll be thankful giving dat fame to him...indeed sometimes simpleness was d best way of living..of course fortune in life was good in feeling.but next to God is my prefer choice

  • Comment removed

  • @jayven009 And why should I believe in an dork like you, that can not even spell ??

  • @mrstevehartman You're hurting your own cause mate. You talk wrong of jayven009 and his spelling, but you are wrong with your grammar. Firstly, you never start a sentence with "and", secondly there is no need for a comma after "like you". Lastly, you do not need to use two question marks.

  • @mrstevehartman Excuse me for my error, I meant to say your sentence structure is wrong, not grammar.

  • @jayven009 haha you took the words right out of my mouth. haha love ur comment. 

  • @jayven009 says "Why on earth would u believe in stupid shit like a talking snake and a magical garden".

    You are a snake, and you are talking. Why you dont believe in talkin snakes?

  • Lennon's tooth was bought by a Canadian dentist LOL

    JESUS IS THE LORD

  • @jayven009 finally, someone who talks sense :)

  • @jayven009 i agree! and to prove he wasn't anti-christ, he talked about how wise (or her words) Mother Mary is in the song "let it be"

  • @Handicaped0629 I am sorry, but the Mary in "Let It Be" refers to Paul McCartney's mother. It wasn't sopposed to refer to Jesus' mother. I agree that the Beatles are not the Anit-Christ. There are probably no people who would count, except Satan. One of the commandments of Jesus is to love one another. Love is also a main theme in the Beatles music. This nice resemblince is evedence that Beatles are not the Anti-Christ.

  • OK, Jesus' primary message was love, so I find it strange that so many John Lennon fans are trashing Jesus.

  • wen john lennon died did he come back to live like god did wen he sacrifes hem

  • ohhh silly, john!

  • beatles songs are more real than any fiction shit written in the bible..
