  • To pretend to understand a work or plan of god would be a lie. We only know for sure that eventually everything ends except for the creator, or if you prefer, the AlphaOmega

  • I only know one thing "life is yours and yours, alone rise up and live it".

  • Well, Im a Christian and I love gay people but you are so ignorant and have not studied what Christianity is really about. Please, next time you post your videos, do your research.

  • @mozartsviolin Eh he was just joking c:

    I am Christian and I found this funny as hell- Oops probably shouldnt say that...

  • @mozartsviolin how can you love gay people if your motherfucking bible says you have to kill them?

  • @Zhavrak93 Um first, that part was in the Old Testament and you misunderstood it. Read a mother fucking Bible before you comment. Second, we live in the New Testament under the grace of Jesus! He doesn't hate anybody. He made everybody but people have fallen because of sin. So get your facts straight. END OF STORY!

  • @mozartsviolin It's funny people quote Leviticus which is from the Old cocksucking Testament to point out that homosexuality is rawng.

  • Two things:

    1. I love the intro to this video.

    2. "I don't think Christianity is for me." -- Agreed.

  • bahahahahahahahahahahahahah WIN!!!

  • People like you made fun of Jesus just before his crucifixion. Making fun has gone on for 2000 years so there is nothing new in what you are doing. We hope what Jesus taught was the truth and we will get to heaven the way he promised. If i t was not true do you an alternative solution for your life after death?

  • @noela3noronha there are a lot of alternatives actually. just look at every single other religion and belief system. If you take a second to look at it as an outsider you would realize it is all just as ridiculous as it sounds in this video. But you believe because you have faith. I'm clarifying that you dont hope, the distinction being faith is basically hope without logical reason. And I'm not saying religion is stupid, just that its illogical and not everyone is capable of thinking that way

  • probably one of the best explanations ive ever heard about my religion

  • LOL LOL LOL... I am showing this to my religion class tomorrow to see what they say.. GOD I :OVE BEING GAY :D

  • Oh, don't worry! I figured out you're problem: you did your soul searching on the internet.

  • I'm a Christian, so I can vouch and say that all this is true. I get how some people view the way this was presented was disrespectful, but I personally find it funny. :)

  • Don't forget that if he asks you to kill your kid for kicks you should take him seriously.

  • COOKEH MONSTA

  • What I got from that is, Hey I'm really close-minded and so i'llpost this and be funny. 1. the ideah that Jesus is a zombie is just dumb. 2. Salvation dosen't come from communion 3. it's not an evil spirt deep within us we need salvation from, it's our own sin.

  • I am dying from laughing.

  • when you piss people off, you know youre doing something right. So good for you =D <3

  • But if you need to use the term to set apart those with and without belief then so be it.

  • Please allow those who are said to be religious define religion. To a Christian, religion is a negative term that means a prideful show of your belief or anything that you do to gain favor with God but that diminishes your faith in Him. Repetative praying without faithful patience, believing that going to church more often makes you more Christian, wearing or using certain things that you feel will lift your prayers, praying to saints for the assurance of prayers being answered...etc. hope you

  • @JVonD88

    As a Christian, I want you to know that Christian doctrine does not tell us to view religion negatively. What you are describing is hypocrisy and salvation by works. No respectable Catholic priest or Protestant pastor would condone any of these things. Religion is a set of beliefs that form a worldview concerning a higher being, and the religion of Christianity as it should be is not to be resented by anyone who claims to be a believer in Christ.

  • I love you... But this video just wasn't doin' it for me :I

    I kinda just sat there the whole time with a 'He-did-not-just-go-there' face.

  • If anything, Jesus would be a vampire, not a zombie. The virus that reanimates dead cells to make zombies needs a living host for the reanimated cells to attach themselves to. However, when the process of being turned into a vampire is in motion, the human body itself will die and then be brought back to life as a vampire. *Just figured I would help your logic.* :)

  • why dont you do the same about islam my friend? see what happens then.

  • LMAO!!!! Your view is so awesome and simply put!!!!! :)

  • Christianity is more than just doctrine though. It's a relationship with Christ. He isn't a "Jewish zombie." He was scourged by Roman soldiers almost to a point of death, carried His own cross for miles up to a hill, had to walk up a hill with this 100 pound cross, was crucified, wouldn't even take one sip of wine to ease His suffering, and commended His spirit into the Father's hands all so we could be saved from hell and spend eternity with Him because He loves us.

  • @penguineatswalrus I still don't see how he's not a Jewish zombie.

  • @elmoiswatchingyou zombies are actually from voodoo practices. look it up. plus Jesus rose again. the term ''zombie'' doesnt make any sense

  • O_O

  • bro obviously from his vid hes not gonna listen to all you silly bananas raven about on the topic of loving Jesus, soooo stop trying... and i mean that in the nicest way possible....

  • ZOMBIE JESUS!!!! AAAAHHHH!!!! religion is ridiculous.

  • Yo brother!! My beloved brother, check this out. I highly encourage you to seek Jesus. Christianity is not a religion it is a relationship with the very Son of God who died for you so you can be saved from hell. He is a real man who never died. The story of him rising from the dead is true .. dont understand his story? pray that He will reveal to you the truth about this life . Much love. He is real!!!! :)

  • @alx3610

    If Christianity is not a religion, then Jesus is not God (therefore making God not God) because a religion is a belief / faith in a higher being or diety that one chooses to follow as sacred truth. I am a Christian, but I hate when people try to say that it's "not a religion" in order to make it look better.

    IT IS A RELIGION. IT IS A BELIEF IN A DIETY. THAT'S WHAT RELIGION IS.

  • @XHolyPuffX Religion my friend is DOCTRINE- follow these list of rules and you will be considered worthy to enter into heaven. My friend that is BS and I encourage everyone to LOVE the Lord your God with all of your heart and to love others. For without love in this world there is corruption. Do you agree? TALK to Jesus everyone. He is real! It IS relationship.

  • @alx3610

    No..religion is the belief in a higher being, and most religions believe in that higher being creating the universe.

    Look it up on dictionary . com before you try to prove me wrong.

  • @alx3610 love won't solve the corruption caused by religion.

  • Comment removed

  • @CodyFloyd00 YES IT WILL! JESUS WILL BE KING OF THIS WORLD IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THINGS WILL GET WORSE BEFORE THEY GET BETTER BUT WHEN THEY GET BETTER, JESUS WILL ESTABLISH HIS KINGDOM HERE ON EARTH FOR 1000 YEARS. THE BOOK OF REVELATION SAYS IT ALL MY FRIEND

  • @alx3610 and what exactly makes you think that he is real?

  • @KennYA51 Because I have an AWESOME relationship with him :) Jesus only has a relationship with those who SEEK HIM :) Come to him as you are and ask him to be a part of your life and he will be your best friend forever.. I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” -Jesus (John 8:12), I work at a doctors office and today for the first time ever, I prayed for healing for a patient in the name of Jesus and she was healed within an hour:)

  • @alx3610 i guess he is real for you. I believed in god as much as you did, he was a friend, a guide. I don't want too spoil your joy in believing so im gonna stop here.

  • @KennYA51 " "And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.- Jesus (John 14:13-14)

  • Personally I think you are just trying to be cute and funny but your NOT. But hey, you reap what you sow.

  • I was raised as a roman catholic, and the way I understand it, people were made to love, accept, create, and be loved. The bible is mostly just for inspiration, encouragement, and a summarized/metaphorical/cultur­al history of the past few thousand years as it was understood when the bible was written.

    Personally, I don't give a shit who you are as long as you can love and accept. Tyler, you're awesome, but christianity is too. Please don't hate on it just because you don't understand it.

  • @theannabellalee Great Reply...

  • @AyyeBinns32 thanks. :)

  • hhHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH thank you so much tyler this is exactly how i feel!!!!!! <3

  • Comment removed

  • I think I'm in love with you! Well...at least your views! :)

  • LOLOL! ATHEIST FO LYYFFFEE!!! <3333333

  • All you have to do to be a Christian is change your mind about all of your sins past, present, and future, and accept Jesus as your Friend, God, Lord, and Savior. God bless you, and may you know Jesus. :)

  • @IsmailaGodHasHeard1 this guy could careless about your missionary work. He thinks it's fun to be intolerant toward other's beliefs which aren't his own. Like all the gay community, they want us to respect their views, yet anyone they disagree with they despise.

    The creator of this video literally hates the fact your alive. Just how they are.

  • @algol291 This is true.

  • @IsmailaGodHasHeard1 so, you think we live in the end times? or do you think it is just a stereotype here in America?

  • @algol291 It is possible that we might be living in the end times, but I am not sure. All I know is that I do not want to experience the end times.

  • @gnasteygnateify Thank you.

  • I really think you should read the bible and go to the church before judging a religion....Religion is faith in something greater than all of us.. I for one find it very comforting to know that there's a plan and i have an ultimate purpose in life. Please try it before you pass judgement(:

  • Just look at the Simpsons as an example. They make the local churchy Ned Flanders a really stereotypical Christian. You'll find this kind of thing in lots of tv shows nowadays.

  • The media makes religion sound like absolute stupid crap and this video proves it. All religious people would agree

  • This is kind of low...I understand that there are christians that make fun of gays, but in doing this you're kinda making yourself seem just as bad. I would never make a video like this about homosexuality, I don't think this was meant to be mean so it didn't really bother me buy yah, idk, it seems kinda like something a stupid redneck would say about gay people. I think you're better than that.

  • @riplearaelothian Is he not entitled to an opinion such as not liking Christianity just because he is gay? I see where you're coming from, but I say stuff like this in my philosophy class and I'm not gay...

  • Wow, you must have been pretty pissed at Christians in order to post this. You have the right to express your feeling, but I am a Christian, and that was just insulting. It annoys me when people have rude oppinions and they just have to exclaim them to the world. We all need to be kinder and learn to shut our mouths when we know something we are about to say will hurt other people.

  • @ForeverAlive189 "[...]I am a Christian, and that was just insulting."

    How? If I say, "I disagree with libertarianism" that doesn't mean I hate all libertarians, or that I'm insulting libertarians. It just means I don't agree with the philosophy. What makes your belief system different?

    As some unknown person funnier than I said, "People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefs."

  • @kissfan7 now you are calling my beliefs funny? The way he expresses what he is saying he uses such sarcasm that be most definatly mocking Chrsitianity. Obviously he wasn't JUST explaining his opinion because he didn't say "I disagree with Christianity" he talked about how we worship a "cosmic-jewish-zombie". If he wanted to express his opinion in a way that was not insulting he would have said "I don't agree with Christianity because..." instead of what he did say in the way he said it.

  • @ForeverAlive189 "[N]ow you are calling my beliefs funny?"

    Well....

    They're not as funny as Scientology, if it makes you feel any better. Still, on the funny meter they are slightly higher than Raelism.

    "[H]e talked about how we worship a 'cosmic-jewish-zombie'"

    Well, don't you? I mean, Jesus has cosmic powers, is Jewish, and rose from the dead.

    "If he wanted to express his opinion in a way that was not insulting"

    But then it wouldn't have been hilarious.

  • @kissfan7 "But then it wouldn't have been hilarious" Exactly. Cause everything in this world has to be hilarous. To me, and many others, it was not hilarous. Hardly even funny. I guess we just have a different sense of humor.

  • @ForeverAlive189 "I guess we just have a different sense of humor."

    I doubt our senses of humor are all that different. Like many, I'm sure when you heard, or will hear, the creation story of Scientology you will also find it hard to suppress a smile. If not Scientology, then surely some other faith you find strange, be it Raelism, Mormonism, Christian Identity, bretharianism, Ho No Hana, or the works of David Icke.

  • @ForeverAlive189 Amen.

  • Another pissed off gay guy

  • I'm sorry.

  • None of that is false, no. It's all true. It's just the sarcasm in your voice that most people probably don't like. I love you and all, but you're kind of making it seem dumb to be a Christian.

  • Comment removed

  • I never comment on videos but this video is really ridiculous. I missed the humor.

  • You're the shit, Mr.Oakley <3 Absolutely fantastic.

  • WHAT IS THIS INTRO SONG?

  • Comment removed

  • Atheism in a nutshell: the beleife that there was nothing and then nothing happenned to that nothing to turn it into an everything but not really only dust which become planets adn stars adnt ehn plants and animals and animals turned into other animals by wanting to be other animals. Anything is stupid if your phrase it stupidly enough.

  • @xvxtobyxvx Atheism in a nutshell: the rejection of belief in the existence of deities. (A non theist). You're why we think religious people are so fucking stupid.

  • @TheOfficialESPN I'm not religous. I'm a Christian. There's a difference between Christianity and religon. By the way you completely missed the point I was making. He intentionally summed up Christianity in a way which made it sound stupid and I did the same for aetheism making it sound stupid too. But really, Aethism is stupid because basically they're saying that there's no God and we still exist even though nothing created us. Many other holes in Aethiesm.

  • @xvxtobyxvx Also according to Christianity, we're all inbred. (Adam and Eve = all of humanity today? Yeah, k.)

  • @TheOfficialESPN Well then I can see why people are Aethiests. I've been wondering how people can be so blind for a while.

  • Well then. I guess we sure kill,commit adultery,steal people's stuff, tell lies against thy neighbour, have sex with your neighbour's wife or husband, work our selves to death? Just to name a few. Tell me something, what is THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS! And in the bible, what is Daniel's prophecy from God about?

  • I love the dumbfounded face you get after you say tree. Lol

  • Perfect.

  • ignorance is such a disease nowadays.

  • I love being a Jew.

  • The world isnt 6000 years old thats just how long ago humans were made. The eath and unieverse are much much older

  • A friend of mine is trying to convert me to Christianity. I'm trying to go about informing her it won't happen without saying this to her face.

  • Ohh my goodness, that was amazing c:

    (by the way, I AM catholic, but we're not as goddamned stuck-up as everyone says)

    I do have a question, though--if you had to decide on ONE religion that's accepted by society, what would it be?

  • I am not going to wastes my time on u but all I am going to say is your wrong and u don't even know enough to believe in the savior

    God Bless!!! -3

  • you made christains sound crazy with your messed up vocabulary. i could go into detail as to how you warped the words of the bible but i dont have time...but your wrong read thebible and you will son start to understand.

  • @badiz35 that was me i did it off of my friends profile my bad

  • @meu1231 right how could they sound crazy? I mean the world is 6000 years old, disregard carbon dating they are lying! Oh and if you have sex before marriage.. .it invalidates the marriage and also the woman shalt be put to death(Deuteronomy 22:13-21) Noah took 2 of every animal to save all of the life on earth. Nothing crazy sounding in there! It isn't crazy to sell your daughter into slavery! the bible says its ok Exodus 21:7.

  • OMG YOU'RE SO WRONG! Lawdie Lawdie that was completely insulting!!!

    It was a forbidden fruit! D:<

    ;P

  • this video is really funny, especially with your innocent but funny facial expression at the end of the video.., lol

  • read messages inside fortune cookies!! funny

  • Religion in a nutshell: DON'T BE A DICK

  • hey Tyler. You're really funny. :)

    I am a Christian and I know that from how you put it, it can sound a little hard to believe/crazy. But if only from an academic perspective, research Jesus himself. He walked on this earth and research the bible itself. It sounds like you know that there may if be more to life than just living, working, and dying. I hope that Jesus and his love becomes real to you. Bless you. <3

  • @shansmiles124 if you research the Bible and Jesus you only confirm that its a myth.

  • You can say the same thing about atheism...

    The belief that there was nothing and nothing happened to nothing, and then nothing magically exploded for no reason, creating everything and then everything magically rearranged itself for no reason what so ever into self-replicating bits which then turned into dinosaurs.... or something like that, so... I guess atheism isn't for me.

  • @kylehudson22 Atheism isn't a belief system. You can be an atheist and reject Abiogenesis, big bang theory and evolution. You can also be religious and accept the scientific theories put forth. The funny thing about ignorance is that it breeds faux intelligence.

  • @KayvenxD The point of the quote is that it's sarcastic towards what the majority of atheists believe, just as this little video that this kid took from the opposite quote about Christianity is. And let me reinforce that this is a QUOTE. Someone came up with these ignorant definitions of Atheism and Christianity. And yeah, thats why those quotes are ignorant, as well as this kid and others who attain their information from atheist websites, instead of actual research.

  • @kylehudson22 atheism is just the theory that god doesn't exist. Look it up. The way things happened is explained to atheists through science not a higher being.

  • @GrizzlyBombify Ik what atheism is. And of course the way things happened are explained to atheists though science, they don't believe God exists...

  • Lol. He's pretending that he came up with that.

  • This is fucking hilarious and it's completely true! Never thought of it like this :)

  • Um...No your almost completely wrong and its not helpful when you spread lies about Christianity.

  • I mean, I would agree that the gist is right, but the wording is just kind of offensive. I don't care what you believe, but this is just off-putting.

  • @greenspot13 The wording is completely accurate, that can not be argued on.

  • Did you know that I love you? Yep. That's all I gotta say about that.

  • I've got an adlibbed version of this on a pic somewhere... I agree with the uploader. WTF are these people thinking? lol

  • yea pretty much thats why I'm no longer Christian. I mean why would you worship a zombie???? right 0_o

  • This is not Christianity. You are wrong. Totally

  • @dancerrr98 Let me guess... all the stuff that just can't be true is just metaphor? Yeah,.. I know... I know...

  • @dancerrr98 It is completely accurate, have you ever read the bible?

  • wow and i thought cristrianity was weird before i saw this

  • Jesus isn't a zombie, and Eve after being tricked by the snake tricked her husband, Adam. Besides that, yeah, pretty much. And yeah, this is coming from a Catholic.

  • @SixtyNineWoodstock Ok... you rule.

  • @SixtyNineWoodstock A person who has been alive, then dies and then resurrects is from our pop-culture a zombie. 

  • @ErikReinholdtHansen I don't think Jesus was in the pop culture of today... at least not in the brain eating scary monster sense anyway.

  • @SixtyNineWoodstock I did not say that Jesus was in the pop culture of today, I said that a living human that dies then resurrects, is a zombie.

  • @ErikReinholdtHansen Zombies don't exist at all, that's just silly... now magic men who turn water into wine, resurrect three days after being killed, and cure leprosy? Now that's legit. c(=

  • If you're going to try satire - try harder. By the way, I'm an atheist and you just irritated me.

  • @mikelheron20 Oh my. I am sure he did not mean to offend you. I shall call the queen and set up a beheading right away my lord.

  • @ErikReinholdtHansen Completely wrong assumption. I'm an atheist so I wasn't offended. I just think it's a crap video. It's intended to be funny and satirical and it isn't. It just demonstrates that there's more to making a decent video than saying a lot of asinine things at a webcam.

  • @mikelheron20 What he says is a compilation of what is said in the bible, there is no way that can be argued. His tone might have been sarcastic but facts are still facts, therefore it is not just a dude saying asinine things at a webcam...

  • ahhh, That is the best way every to clarify it!! :3

  • LMAO I FUCKING LOVE YOU

    THANK YOU

    OMG

    But seriously. I love you :,) And your videos. <3

  • Thank you for explaining the stupidity of this religion. 

  • Tyler, I really, really love you. But I find this video really very offensive. Are you doing this to poke fun at right wing conservatives who claim that homosexuality is a sin? Those "Christians" have forgotten that acceptance and understanding are paramount to following Christ. Those "Christians "don't represent Christ. And they certainly don't represent my religious or political views. Would you make these types of "jokes" about Judaism? Islam? I don't think you would. You're better than that

  • i agree with this video. it just harder express this in my life when my parents send me to fucking catholic school.....

  • I don't think I could love this video more :D

  • Just lost all respect for you. Dick.

  • Following God is not a religion called "Christianity", man created the religion. It's supposed to be a relationship.

  • GREAT ANALOGY, that,s a great take on it

  • Watching this really made me reconsider if you really are as open to peoples beliefs as you should be

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • its so stupid how people who have little to no knowledge of something can judge it so.

  • God gave Adam and Eve the ability to make choices because he thought it was right not to control their choices Adam sinned and God basically kicked them out and now he does not show himself to those who sin. That is why we have the ability to choose, and now days so much is forgotten about our Lords commandments that so many people are making wrong decisions and sinning without knowing it. Learn what our Father in Heaven expects of us so we can return to live in Heaven with Him.

  • Okay, that was GREAT. I couldn't have explained it better.

  • @SteveIsBrootal really? wow that is sad none of that is true like he was saying it..........................th­is is some gay athiest with a life he lives on the internet

  • @ducktapekrazee If you don't like it, then don't comment. I find it humorous because i think it's true. Obviously you're some bible freak and can't appreciate some criticism. Get off the internet, you'll get way too offended.

  • yep thats basicaly it no demon inside just broken rules called sins

  • @anderdorm If you think about, that is Satan's point, losing yourself in the World.Atheist have no say in His world which is what you are part of.Don't focus on them, but on Him. Please don't lose faith in what your are doing, I count on people like you to minister to my 10 month old when she needs it.Please don't stop believing in HIm and shining His light.

  • @anderdorm Non-believers aren't called to His standard, we are,even people are flat out mean to us.They don't know but we do. So if we venture out to do this kind of "ministry" then we follow His way, not ours and we certainly don't follow the "worlds".You are awesome and doing great, don't quit and don't quit on them.

  • @anderdorm It isn't a lost cause though,someone might read something you say & it makes a difference to them.That is why I say write by shining His light and not try to be "right".We all come from a fallen place and it is only b/c if Him that we are saved.If that is the case,we "should" only come from a place of grace and understanding, not matter the case.Easy to write, easy to read, hard to do...and that is what He calls us to do.&, we'll probably fail,and we can apologize for when we don't.

  • @anderdorm You are better off not to take anything personal,it doesn't serve anyone least of all Christ.Write from Him, not from him, the pride will take over and then there is no difference from secular to believer.The worst we could do is turn people off,if so, we should stay silent and not make it worse, that isn't for His cause, only ours.God bless and Godspeed.

  • Tyler: you forgot to mention that the snake had legs and was a vegetarian.

  • @anderdorm And then you deluded yourself. That's nice, dear.

  • Comment removed

  • @anderdorm Most times it seems like a lost cause,information w/o relationship is futile.Rarely do you find anyone that has any empirical data to support any of their claims.Just expletives and name calling is what I get, especially with my "handle".Oh well, worth a try to reach someone that reads it.

  • Comment removed

  • @anderdorm I see I'm dealing with a very intelligent person with allot of scientific background. I'm saying 4th grade?

    First of All is was Billions of years, there are observable proof for the BigBang (continuous expancion of the universe), and the Chaos theory only applies to a closed system.

    On the other hand you have an invisible, unprovable, mass murderer, sky daddy that killed over 2 million people.

    Or you have a a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father and walked on water.

  • @anderdorm Science > Magic

  • LMAO sorry that's not how it really is though it may seem that way to most people. simply to put it: most people have changed the original very strict christianity to something that they personally make that fits their own selves (personally i find it stupid to sugar coat this but watevr) then they split into separate denominations that do watevr religious type stuff they think is right. i just follow the bible in a fairly strict way. just as rules, God is creator, etc. have a great day! lol

  • First of all,your delivery of this message was fabulous, you must have had some drama classes.Secondly,that you pulled all that information/conclusion from a website tells me you have done volumes of research to support such a hypothesis.Maybe once you get out of junior high you can get to a "big boy" library and do some proper investigation.

  • @fematheunicorn your a man of science right? Tell me if I'm wrong but, if you have a hypothesis it is considered correct until proven wrong correct? Prove to me how the universe came of nothing, prove to me there is no god.

  • @lifehowtochannel 1st Challenge: Nobody makes such a claim. Read a book sometime, rather than the Bible. Like, a scientific one with words you might have to look up.

    2nd. You cannot prove a negative. Just like you cannot prove there aren't Unicorns, I cannot prove there isn't a "god." Though, I could probably put forth a powerful argument for why your god is impossible or improbable, depending on your perception of it.

  • LOL!!! XD

  • LOL a cosmic jew zombie XD hahaha

  • ya know, at first i thought you were kind of funny... but then you had to go and make fun of religion.... i'm gonna go now.

  • @MagnusCattus you can be Christian and believe in evolution. Either way, to most people, the origin of the world is incredible, in the most literal meaning of the word. Furthermore, it's not as if he's bashing it because the bible frowns upon homosexuality. I'm sorry that I feel the need to correct you. Your defensiveness astounds me, as does your lack of good humor.
