So this guy is an atheist who doesn't like kids. What was his purpose on the planet? Given that, anyone who is an atheist and does want to procreate. What is your purpose other than self gratification?
@truthfromtheword he wasn't an atheist. he believed in god, just not religion. i can't speak for Hicks, as far as what his purpose was, but i can tell you that there is more to life than ones faith and children. and every person's purpose is different. it's a common fallacy among religious people to think that man has no purpose if he doesn't believe in god.
@lacrymologyst That's very debatable. He MIGHT have believed in "God", but definitely not any of the monotheistic Gods. If he DID believed in god, it was loosely defined, or at least defined very personally to him, probably in context with his use of psychedelics.
@lacrymologyst Well, that is IF he believed in a deity though. That part is still debatable. I remember reading one of his books, and this topic came up. It's debatable, even among his closest friends.
@BillHicks420 well i'm not basing it off anything his friends have said. i believe he wasn't an atheist based on things Hicks has said. sorry we disagree. you keep saying it's debatable. isn't everything? doesn't mean i'm wrong. maybe if i get the time, i'll edit and upload a montage of Hicks clips that would make the case he wasn't an atheist.
@lacrymologyst Debatable meaning there are arguments for both sides. Well, I don't know if looking at his material is a good indicator though. I mean comedians say a lot of stuff they don't genuinely believe in, to create humor and get a laugh. Otherwise, all comics with racists jokes would be racists etc, you know what I mean? Yeah I base it off his biographies, comments made by his closest friends during the last few months of his life.
@BillHicks420 so i walked away with the impression he wasn't an atheist, based on what i've seen. you've walked away with the impression he might have been an atheist. we're obviously both big Hicks fans, and have probably pulled our conclusions from similar information. and since he's dead, we'll never really know for sure. so we'll have to agree to disagree.
@lacrymologyst I haven't made up my mind though. Like I said, all options are still up for discussion. Him being a free thinker, I'd like to imagine he's an atheist, but we'll never know for sure! I recommend the written books on him, Bill Hicks Agent of Evolution, written by Kevin Booth and Michael Bertin, and American Scream The Bill Hicks Story, by Cynthia True. No matter what his personal outlook on god was,his message will forever be true,and inspire generations to come
@lacrymologyst I think a person can look at it from a secular point of view as well. If we are just animals walking around, eating, sleeping, and screwing, then what is the point of us being cognitive of our existence beyond just being animals? Having children is a natural phenomena that fits nature's order. When I read Ben Franklin's autobiography it makes sense. Posterity is all you have once you are gone from Earth. It is nice to give them some pointers on how to live a good life.
@truthfromtheword maybe there is no point. maybe we're just here to make the most of our life and our experiences. and some people don't require religion or kids to feel they've lived a good life. if those things are what makes your life meaningful, then great. but like i said before, everyone's purpose is different. and just because you can't understand the purpose of someone like Hicks, doesn't mean he didn't feel he had a purpose.
@lacrymologyst ''it's a common fallacy among religious people to think that man has no purpose if he doesn't believe in god.''
Point A (absence of sentence before abiogenesis) to Point A (absence of sentience upon extinction). Remind me what the purpose of life is again. Oh yes. It's my responsibility to imagine Sisyphus happy.
what makes this awesome even more is that he here looks like one of those old school computer/atari game programmers who dropped out of college and worked out of a garage in the mid 70s who also snapped.
I've heard this routine countless times on an audio file. Seeing him actually perform it makes it even more hilarious! Also, I love the "Gidea" reference. I'm guessing you were lucky enough to actually attend this, OP [lacrymologyst]?
@DanieLatzanich It's a reference to another one of his jokes about the Gideon Bible, and how it's in every hotel room in the USA but he's never seen it being placed there. Search for it on YouTube, I'm sure you'll be able to find the joke.

Only read a couple responses, between kenfo0 and funnytard or something. Anyhow, my worthless 2 cents is, love or hate him, your hard pressed to disprove one fact, and that is Bill Hicks was a visionary who did remarkable things for comedy. Anyone remember Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Redd Fox, George Carlin. I didn't like the 'normal' material a couple of them used. Regardless of my dislike, I'd be a FOOL to say that because I don't find them funny that they are no good.
what were hick's kids names again? oh, that's right, he didn't have any. so what we have is simply another "if yer knot mee then yer dumm" bit. *YAAAAAAAWN*.
@kenfo0 are you implying that if Hicks had children, then it would have been a funny bit? or are you just trashing it to be "that guy". if so... YAAAAAAWN!!!
@lacr LOL. So by copying me, you think you are bright? No, you are a bore. I didn't "imply" anything. I stated fact. All of hicks' "comedy" is exactly the same: "if ewe aint uh leftist, druggie, smokur an selfish twat, yer uh dummy an itz funnie". He even DRESSES the part, with his faggoty hippie mullet and round specs. He was no "innovator". he was a whiny, self-absorbed asshole. Nothing more. My point was CRYSTAL clear, but I forgot there are idiots like you who need spoon feeding...
@kenfo0 you're the guy who leaves negative comments on videos, then wonders why people don't like you.
it's fine if you don't like hicks, or don't find him funny. but it doesn't change the fact that lots of people do like him. he's not as popular as he is for being as bad as you think he is.
being "that dude", trashing hicks so hicks fans will argue with you... if that's what makes you feel special, tough, whatever... have at it. but you'll be doing it elsewhere from now on.
Excuse my friend kenfo0, he’s been trolling on the internet for years now, so he’s had plenty of practice. Although he’s a bitter xenophobic and homophobic man with an abrasive personality, he’s mostly harmless. He’s like the village idiot of Youtube. It’s best to ignore him and he’ll either get bored and go away or become frustrated and make more of a fool of himself.
Beware poor spelling, punctuation and grammar are his favorite foods.
@funnyguise finally, someone asks a relevant question! You DO realize you are the only one. I applaud the fact that you can step outside nonsensical dogma and ask a question. Asking an honest question is the foundation of knowledge. I have watched a bunch of his material because I like comedy. Believe it or not, I am funny when I choose to be. I read all kinds of praise of this guy, yet I've watched a LOT of his bits, and see nothing funny. You wouldn't BELIEVE the response I've gotten...
@kenfo0 I do believe it. It's kind of like the sports thing where people get all personal about "their" team. I do like Hicks and find him funny even though he does go a bit further to the left than I like (I'm a libertarian Ron Paul fan from Canada living in S.Korea).
i love the way folks put themselves in boxes via religion, country and political views. Thats the kind of folks the governments like as that mentality is easy to controll.
Respond to this video... One of the attractions to Bill is how honest he was long before any others (ie, Carlin, Leary et al.) on political and social issues. And because he's still not REALLY popular, people feel like they have some ownership because they 'discovered' and 'relate to' him.
@fu ...the response is that of "true believers"...a bizarre, angry cult-like response. "if you don't like bill hicks it's because you're STUPID or don't "get it"". There is hate in the responses, and it makes perfect sense to me. Hicks' "humor" is simplistic, selfish, leftist dogma, nothing more. In one "joke" he praises Kennedy...you know, the guy who sent Spec Ops into VN? The guy who bought an election? The guy who brought the world to the nuke brink? NAH! It's those DAMNED REPUBLICANS!
@kenfo0 are you seriously this boring? really? well at least you've revealed the true reason you don't like Hicks. his ideas/opinions offended you. now all your pointless flaming makes sense.
since you took it upon yourself to be the one to rally against Hicks' legendary cult like status, i'm here to tell ya, you failed miserably. you can't convince people to not like something they like, instead you just come off like an asshole. doesn't really help your cause much.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@kenfo0 You are spot on. Hicks was nothing special. All his ideas are purely banal. His comedy is mainly just exposing those banal ideas to simple-minded people who are laughably dazzled by them. There is no real comedy. So we have a self-aggrandizing self-indulgent misanthrope who, I strongly suspect, expressed those banal ideas to a simple-minded audience not for purposes of enlightenment as many think, but rather simply to satisfy that enormous ego of his.
@joshgreen19 I'm not merely talking shit. You would probably realize this if you lived a much fuller Life of Mind. I don't have to reveal some brilliant ideas in order to confirm the non-stop flow of regurgitated banality from Hicks. Alot of these infatuated Hicks fans really need to wake up from their naive fantasy world where Hicks is a such a special thinker and enter the real-world where Hicks, properly place on the thinker spectrum, is a mediocrity.
@HalloFusilli How many different laws are in place and defended because "think of the children"? It's a banal idea. Yet our society wholly ignores it and props children up on a pedestal as special. Even at an individual level, how many parents spoil their children and refuse to step back and take an unbiased view of their child? That's the genius of Hicks. He pointed out obvious truths that our society ignores.
@ZeroRed78 Why would you not view children as special. The young are, in a sense, merely life itself in the abstract. They are, for the most part, the good in man. Their lack of useless pessimistic nihilism, their unbridled curiosity, their fervor/joy for life, among other things constitutes their specialness. These things are what we are trying to keep safe for they are often lost.
This is very different from the shallowness Hicks was spiting out. He probably only meant
@ZeroRed78 those people who delusionally see their own children as so very special. But the thing is, most ppl aren't so delusional. The specialness which they see is merely a love for the child. For most ppl this specialness is just sort of hoping for the best. Can you blame them? Most ppl realize limitations.
Hicks was probably just whining about mothers who go, "My little man is soooo special. He reads at such a high level. He's sooooo bright!".
@kenfo0 you are a tard makin a comedy bit out to be more than it is. Bill HIcks was a visionary like George Carlin. people like you are the reason society is so screwed. do us all a favor and fall of the earth
I'm getting a little tired of hearing/seeing people say that they wish Bill was still alive so they can feel comfort in his ideas and beliefs. Now, I am a huge Bill fan, I love the man and what he stood for. But, just because he's dead dosnt give you the right to sit on your ass and complain about the things he's not complaining about anymore. You know what I mean? If you believe, respect, and miss him and his idea's. Carry the fucking torch yourself and form your own view and opinions to share
@vizions89 I try to. I always do my best. However, i still wish Bill were still here. When you'd see him, it would be enouraging that there are men out there like him. But, without Bill, at times, it seems like you're here alone. There's no light at the end of this bloody tunnel.
Bill was our Light, and it's a shame he isn't here to see it.
I wish he was still here, he'd have so much to talk about. Plus quite a lot to get angry about too, i'd love to hear his views on Reality tv bullshit like american idol and big brother, the war in Iraq and maybe even the London riots.
@grigstori I understand your point, I think it all depends on perspective. If you search enough, you'll always find someone who thinks you're special, in one way or another..
@Sjaakdevries1 You`re right. He isn`t special... anymore. Your words. I guess wee both know he was special when he was alive, but unfortunately he is no more.
This makes me think, I mean if we have 200 million sperm and one was joined to 200 million different girls eggs, does that literally mean there would be 200 million more people born if the impregnation worked? Holy Shit!
You are truly successful when people copy you. The fact that his jokes are still relevant today is either strangely prophetic, or it means we haven't moved forward as a society at all for the last 30 years.
The only reason people think their kids are special, biologically, is that without that emotional bond there's no reason to put up with their shit for eighteen years. Kids aren't miracles or anything special. (Although comedians are, in my opinion.)
OMGOMGOMG!!! I CANNOT STOP LAUGHING when he's telling about how he is special by conquering the universe and pointed and say that is special!!! AHAHHAAHHAHAAHA!!!!
I am so bored when people start going on about how amazing their kids are. And if the photos come out, I'm likely to start getting violent. I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOUR BORING SPOILT CHILDREN...Here's an idea - try teaching them some fucking manners.
@matt301273 no that wouldnt make them special either., i dont care about kids. babies.. i just dont see what so special about them. they cease to be special when billions of ppl squeese them out of thier vaginas. they are just common. its not a miracle either. miracles are not meant to be common.. its not a miracle having kids. its biology.
He basically points out the hypocrisy and stupidity behind what we are told to believe and to say as part of being an upstanding socially acceptable person. It's a whole heap of bull, if everyone stopped getting so offended about every little thing we could all say whatever the f**k we're thinking and the world would be a better place. Remember, sweeping it under the carpet just makes it worse in the long run... it doesn't make a problem go away, people still believe what they're thinking!
@inbetweentics norton was on the bob saget roast, and he told a joke that i thought sounded a lot like a Hicks bit. so, i wouldn't be surprised by what you said about this joke, too.
R.I.P. Bill.
We hardly knew ye.

@kenfo0 are you seriously this boring? really? well at least you've revealed the true reason you don't like Hicks. his ideas/opinions offended you. now all your pointless flaming makes sense.
since you took it upon yourself to be the one to rally against Hicks' legendary cult like status, i'm here to tell ya, you failed miserably. you can't convince people to not like something they like, instead you just come off like an asshole. doesn't really help your cause much.

@kenfo0 You are spot on. Hicks was nothing special. All his ideas are purely banal. His comedy is mainly just exposing those banal ideas to simple-minded people who are laughably dazzled by them. There is no real comedy. So we have a self-aggrandizing self-indulgent misanthrope who, I strongly suspect, expressed those banal ideas to a simple-minded audience not for purposes of enlightenment as many think, but rather simply to satisfy that enormous ego of his.

@joshgreen19 I'm not merely talking shit. You would probably realize this if you lived a much fuller Life of Mind. I don't have to reveal some brilliant ideas in order to confirm the non-stop flow of regurgitated banality from Hicks. Alot of these infatuated Hicks fans really need to wake up from their naive fantasy world where Hicks is a such a special thinker and enter the real-world where Hicks, properly place on the thinker spectrum, is a mediocrity.
HalloFusilli 2 weeks ago
@HalloFusilli How many different laws are in place and defended because "think of the children"? It's a banal idea. Yet our society wholly ignores it and props children up on a pedestal as special. Even at an individual level, how many parents spoil their children and refuse to step back and take an unbiased view of their child? That's the genius of Hicks. He pointed out obvious truths that our society ignores.
ZeroRed78 1 week ago
@ZeroRed78 Why would you not view children as special. The young are, in a sense, merely life itself in the abstract. They are, for the most part, the good in man. Their lack of useless pessimistic nihilism, their unbridled curiosity, their fervor/joy for life, among other things constitutes their specialness. These things are what we are trying to keep safe for they are often lost.
This is very different from the shallowness Hicks was spiting out. He probably only meant
HalloFusilli 1 week ago
@ZeroRed78 those people who delusionally see their own children as so very special. But the thing is, most ppl aren't so delusional. The specialness which they see is merely a love for the child. For most ppl this specialness is just sort of hoping for the best. Can you blame them? Most ppl realize limitations.
Hicks was probably just whining about mothers who go, "My little man is soooo special. He reads at such a high level. He's sooooo bright!".
Most ppl aren't like this..

Now, I am a huge Bill fan, I love the man and what he stood for. But, just because he's dead dosnt give you the right to sit on your ass and complain about the things he's not complaining about anymore. You know what I mean? If you believe, respect, and miss him and his idea's. Carry the fucking torch yourself and form your own view and opinions to share

The only reason people think their kids are special, biologically, is that without that emotional bond there's no reason to put up with their shit for eighteen years. Kids aren't miracles or anything special. (Although comedians are, in my opinion.)

He basically points out the hypocrisy and stupidity behind what we are told to believe and to say as part of being an upstanding socially acceptable person. It's a whole heap of bull, if everyone stopped getting so offended about every little thing we could all say whatever the f**k we're thinking and the world would be a better place. Remember, sweeping it under the carpet just makes it worse in the long run... it doesn't make a problem go away, people still believe what they're thinking!
