Thank you so much for 250k subs! I appreciate you all and I'm so glad you guys like this newer style of videos!! Gonna do a bit of a q&a now to celebrate on my instagram story (@pinelybox) so feel free to give me some questions over there :)
I give u props for being a DOOM fan but if you listen to rap/hiphop you should know "wish someone would" is a common saying actually. it's like a threat or a challenge. it's like saying you want all the smoke, you don't care, you wish someone *would* say something so then you can cap em, or beat them up, or whatever lol. not defending this wack ass dude at all I just thought it odd you didn't know the phrase, maybe it's the language barrier
Bignik is the kind of man who says women refuse him because he is short and therefore they're bitches, but his way of flirting and talking to women is treating them as inferior nonhumans.
When he was denied by women, he turned to something that made him feel better. Hating women, Christian ideals that support hating women, etc, what ever will tell him he’s right and he deserves women, nothing that tells him that he has to do something to earn respect
@@ebayaccount675 Bignik supports forced pregnancy and promotes conspiracy theories, it's not a big leap to assume he doesn't consider anyone except cishet male christians fully human as these three things usually don't exist in one person without the other stuff
@@wolfgalleader You hit the nail right on the head, I'm somebody who used to be an incel, or at least close to an incel (this was 6 years ago btw). But that is exactly what I did, I was sad and lonely and fed myself a bunch of incel fuel via alt-right/Christian TH-cam videos instead of realizing that blaming all women and being angry at them was just me trying to hide from reality. I still am lonely, but at least I've come to my senses and accepted it.
From a Christian perspective, it's ridiculous to call Buddha a fraud. He never claimed to be a God or Prophet, he was just a wise man who taught a lot of the same stuff as Jesus. Early Church Fathers recognized and respected the teachings of non-Christians as the "wisdoms of the world". They recognized that we can and should learn from wise teachers outside of our own traditions, the wisdoms of the world can be understood as important to more fully understanding our world and our faith. This respect for the "wisdoms of the world" in a Christian framework was in large part responsible for the Renaissance and the flourishing of a culture which sought out wisdom and knowledge in both secular and religious life. They didn't reject Plato or the important Islamic philosophers of the time as frauds, they learned from the wisdoms of the world.
Oh my god yes I was internally screaming when he called Buddha a fraud, like have you ever even researched one of his teachings? Because Buddha literally is not a god. He’s definitely a sorta mythical-ish figure, but he’s no more god then I am. Plus I’m pretty sure that Buddhism’s general rules to live by can be practiced by people of other denominations? As in I think that you can technically be Christian and Buddhist because they don’t conflict actually, since Buddhism doesn’t focus on gods at all and this doesn’t break the rule that Christians must have only one god. My old catholic high school religion teacher said that we had to learn about Buddhism because it helped us be better Catholics, and she was as bigoted and homophobic as they come so what is this Bignik guy doing
Yeah I was thinking that but I wasn't sure. I'm a humanistic jew so I don't know too much about Buddhism but I thought that the Buddha wasn't really a god or a spiritual figure like that, and I asked my mom who's both Jewish and Buddhist and she essentially told me the same thing.
A Catholic apologist once explained it like this: All religions have at least some truth to them, some have more truth than others, but only one is fully true.
Protestant Christianity (and Catholicism too to a sometimes lesser extent) has become remarkably anti intelectual. Islam obviously has a rich tradition of intellectualism and Catholics still can be often be very scholarly in their approach to things. But Protestants have barley moved past the paranoia of the days of the witch trials. Like you said there were a lot of Protestant thinkers that’s influenced good ideas, but that sure was a short lived tradition lol
I saw a sticker on a car in Florida that said "if Jesus had a gun he'd be alive today" so I think it's safe to say that most modern Christians practice a great deal of cognitive dissonance about their lord and savior rather than understand it.
Wow. They really failed to grasp the most basic parts of the Easter story. Christianity teaches that he is still alive, in Christians who love others, and in heaven. He ducking rose from the dead. That is the reason we celebrate Easter as a Christian holiday. That is the whole point. And if you spend even a few minutes reading the chapter before the crucifixion, you can see that Jesus was willing to die. He told his followers *not* to defend him violently. Also, without the crucifixion, Christian tradition teaches that our salvation would be a lot harder. He needed to die, and then, as commemorated every year at Easter, and with every cross as a Christian symbol, rise from the dead. Part of the confession that is a part of most Christian traditions is also confessing that he is still living, and we want to be in communion with him. Communion is about commemorating the willing sacrifice he made, and the miracle of his resurrection that gives the world hope. I am sorry for the ramble, I am just sick of this sort of stuff.
Yeah, Jesus, who allegedly had the literal power of God and Heaven behind him, would have been able to avoid crucifixion if only he'd had a *gun.* Sure. (Also, according to Christian theology, the crucifixion not only had to happen, but was pretty important for the whole "sacrificing himself to cleanse humanity's sins" thing. Also, he supposedly resurrected after three days, meaning he IS alive... what the fuck are y'all American Protestants doing over there/here?)
Also… Jesus was human. That was like a big part of the story. Son of God but still a man. Bro lived 2000 years ago and he would most definitely NOT be alive today 😭 say you didn't read the story without saying you didn't get the story
Not just misogynistic, transphobic as well... when his sister is a trans girl. He also claimed that a faith healer healed his disability or something? Which believe in whatever you want about faith healers, but don't suggest it because most of the time they're scamming you for money you should be spending on real doctors. If you wanna waste your money, fine. But don't bring others into it you know?.
Remember when Jeff said during the david dobrik down fall, that he said nick did SOMETHING sketchy but never elaborated on it. I'm interested to know what that story is.
I was raised catholic and although I’m not a believer anymore I gained an appreciation for Jesus. He had unconditional love for sinners and people who society looked down upon. Big Nik’s behavior is completely against what Jesus taught, someone needs to read his bible a little more closely 🙄
fr im not religious anymore but grew uo and still live with a christian family. everyone seems to forget that Jesus treats everyone equally when it comes to his love, and his rule of love thy neighbour... and how he treated kings and prostitutes the exact same... but nah
This isn’t unique to Nik but the way that Christian online influencers constantly promoting themselves through worship and treating themselves as these big heros who are saving peoples souls seem to go against a lot of tenets of Christianity. I was raised Christian and like the biggest things we learn is no idol worship (and if you are making yourself into an online idol…) and to not pray in public. Like. I know that different denominations do things differently but since he likes to talk about the bible so much you’d think he would have learned the basics
There's very few things less Christian than the modern evangelical Christian movement. You can find literal false prophets, people who say that if you donate money to the church you will find financial success on your own, people who embrace a materialistic lifestyle of private jets and manors, and pastors who have fundamental misunderstandings of the whole *thing,* like saying that Satan was behind Jesus' death on the cross. There's also few things less stupid, which is a real shame. Christianity has literal centuries of scholarship around it, yet it's loudest adherents are deeply reactionary and anti-intellectual.
@@ItsMcGeeGents I think it’s common for evangelical christians. I was always taught that public praying was not something that should be done but now I think about it my church was a little unusual
the most hypocritical thing about this all is that "using God's name in vain" doesn't mean "don't say oh my God", it means "don't use God's name to promote something He wouldn't agree with". nik using religion to guilt trip people into listening to his shitty songs is literally a sin, and yet he dares to criticize other people for just existing
Bro really thinks that he, as an internet nobody, can compete with an A lister celeb. I don't like Wap or Cardi B, but I would sooner listen to that on repeat than Bignik, he's just so full of 💩
as the wise noel miller once said “they think this flow sounds good like they actually listened to it and thought oh yeah this sounds smooth, you sound like kidz bop, you sound like ur hanging onto the back of an old pickup truck”
@@kit6561 Which is funny cause the Christians who don't make their entire life centered around the bible probably (not all of them) listen to secular music, like Pitbull, Beyonce, G-Eazy, or Cardi.
Generally, a good rule to follow when looking for good Christian music is "who does this song glorify?" The point being that Christian music is a form of worship, and should be focused entirely on God. Big Nik's music seems to be mostly about how everyone hates him for holding conservative views. I genuinely hope that he's just doing this for attention, and doesn't actually hold those beliefs about Christianity
I've just listened to Powerwolf in terms of christian music, and aside from the fact that it slaps, it only talks about God and about they serve Him. Never put down a non-beliver, or a believer of other religion.
yep! i grew up around some great christian music and while i dont follow the practice anymore, the songs still slap even tho theyre religious (and they have some p good messages outside of christianity)
@@karumeg I love me some Skillet. One of my favorite songs is called "Long Black Train" by Josh Turner. Also, I hate some people of certain religions (mostly because a small minority ruined them for me) but I love and will never put down those who believe in a deity. Buda, Allah, or god. As long as you're not mean, like someone this video is talking about, then the music is good and all is good.
His new attitude pisses me off. Everyone defenses him through the David stuff and he just becomes a huge hateful person? He obviously hasn't read the bible if he has this much hate in his heart. Maybe he'll grow up one day but I doubt it.
@@amelia3146 I had a horrible intrusive thought after watching Nick DiRamio + Fat Sajak's coverage of Shane Dawson's recent video, the one formerly known as "Our Wedding"...when commenters started chatting about all the ways Ryland + Shane would likely "content mill" any of their potential kids...& my dumb brain decided to go: "omg what if they get Tana to be a surrogate?". I was like, "Shut up, Brain!" but ofc by then it was too late. Ah, intrusive thoughts...memes for one.
I'm not religious, but gospel music goes so hard lmao. Yes I do want to hear some random woman in Georgia who is God tier (no pun intended) at piano and has an angelic voice sing about God for 4-5 minutes, and I will enjoy every second of it
Even if the Arabic people are not Christian: Allah is just the Arabic word for God. And the god in Islam and Christianity is the same god. It's mentioned in scripture everywhere.
@RayIsNotReal I'm neither a K-on Stan nor an anime fan. It's a very old meme from 2017 or so, when PewDiePie said if you wanted to be a mod, you would have to have this anime profile pic. TH-cam did not make mods a thing I think, but back then it was a tool pewds was able to try out. I'm a leftist and in a satire party, so don't worry bro, I got u
His audience only listens to him because it repeats their preconditioned beliefs. They don't care if it's bad, or honestly if he's doing it as a grift. It's the same reason people listen to Tom Macdonald.
I actually got recommended a Tom Macdonald video once. I watched some of it until I remembered who Tom Macdonald was and said yeah no. In the video he was complaining about he should be number 1 on the charts based on record sales but because he was selling CDs or something like that the charts wouldn’t list him. There was also something about a third party company that he had needed to use involving getting ranked. But I kinda stopped caring because of his whining and big music narrative. I also highly doubt he was as high up in the charts as he thought he was. Interesting how I found maybe one or two comments being reasonable while all the others were ass kissing and going on about how it was so important for him to expose big music like this. Now that I think of it, I didn’t even get halfway through the video. Imagine what else he was spouting off about how great he is (probably including tour dates, listen to his stuff because he doesn’t put his music on streaming sites, etc) and how evil big music is
Christians talking about the “end times” are so dumb… like if the world is ending RIGHT NOW, why are you talking about getting married and having kids…why not just join the clergy and spend your remaining weeks dedicated to god? Nah…nah the world is TOTALLY ending but before it does I gotta get that Jesus clout fix
Hardcore christians that keep preaching aggressively should just become monks and devote their lives to following God in a way that doesnt annoy other people, just themselves and their God
@@jjdelft3216 the “hardcore Christian’s” in question are all just talk, I’ve noticed they hardly have a clue abt the religion beyond surface level stuff, and they don’t practice enough to become monks or whatever🧑🏻🦯🧑🏻🦯
0:10 - Uhhh... Allah is literally the SAME god Bignik believes in, he realizes? "Allah" is literally just the Arabic word for "God". Arabic speaking Christians and Jews call god "Allah" too. This dude is ignorant as hell. He's basically calling his own god a fraud lol
Ahhhhh! That line was so dumb. That line reminds my of that surgery that had a 200% mortality rate. Not only did he call Buddha fraudulent, when he isn't even a god. Nik also managed to call his own god a fake! Never have I seen something so stupid.
Allah and Yaweh are different gods. Allah is the god of Islam. The only Reason Arab christians call god Allah is because the Arabic language was built around Islam
I don't agree Allah isn't the God Christian worship because Allah has different morals. I suggest you watch Christian Prince debates on ytb . I don't agree at all!! Your allah say to kill the unbelievers, bring them with chains on their neck. Crucify them and melt their skin. Watch Christian Prince debates and Nabi asli channel
@@R-rr1 Your comments are so funny! like defend your own point dont send people to christian apologia channels. Let's hear your reasoning for how Allah, YHVH, G-d, God, Jehovah, Yahweh, and Dio are different gods 😂
Man I swear why do people have to make religion bigger than it has to be, I am a Christian believer not a blind follower, People gotta learn to think for themselves, like the Bible was not written by God himself but by other humans and it's interpretation has changed multiple times, I believe in the commandments because I actually think it makes life better for me and for the people around me. I feel people use our religion as a shield to hide behind while they spread hate. An example of this is when people say well I hate gays and when you ask why well it is of course because the Bible says so, What about love thy neighbor as thyself. Sorry for this rant stuff like this just makes me sad.
Ok as another Christian, I disagree that the Bible wasn’t made by God. In my opinion God made the Bible, but *through* other humans. It wasn’t simply made *by* other humans. But that’s just my opinion. Take it how you like :) Otherwise, I agree 👍
also the bible never said anything about gay people til the 1970s, changed by the church. Originally talking about pedophilia being a sin. Not like the church cares about that though. :/
@@Cyra_The_Jedi just to add on to that, there are "edits" that have been made to the bible to reflect the political beliefs of people in power. The female apostle Junia for example, had an "s" attached to the end to make it masculine, which would essentially erase the only female apostle. I trust God, I don't necessarily trust the people who hand down his words.
As someone in the satanic community the others I know don't give a fuck about Christians like this, other than clowning on them occasionally and even showing they know more about the bible/god than they do
revelations screamers are so funny to me cause they're always like "theres wars, and natural disasters, the end times are near" as if those things havent happened for literally all of humanity's existence, it just LOOKS like its happening more because of the evolution of communication
@@Cyra_The_Jedi IIRC from my 8th grade history lesson on the Islamic Golden Age, the Quran said Jesus, Abraham, Moses, and Mohammed were all prophets of the same deity, known as Yaweh, God, or Allah but all three meaning the same being. Like the main difference being that Christians see Jesus as Percy Jackson but real and Muslims see him as immaculate conception and prophet, sure, but not a direct descendent. Islam builds off of Christianity in the same way Christianity builds off of Judaism. EDIT: I know people tend to discredit wikipedia, but this article seems to be confirming what I brought up en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_in_Islam
@@lordskeletor481 True. Yeah the main difference is that we see Jesus as the son of God (but actually God coming down to earth as a human. The trinity can be confusing to explain), whereas the Muslims see him as a prophet I think. I reckon also that Islam is more works-based whereas Christianity is supposed to be based on grace (Jesus died for us; we can’t do anything to get to heaven ourselves so it’s a wonderful gift) Correct me if I’m wrong with the works-based thing
@@Cyra_The_Jedi I personally wouldn't treat Christianity in the Arab world and Christianity in North America / Europe as two different religions, though. There are lots of different Christian sects, yes, but they worship the same God - it's usually the rules by which they have to live and their rituals that are different. The Christian God is worshipped in many different languages, but it's still the same God.
@@ninawth Oh I simply meant the Christian God all over, but the God that the Muslims believe in (their particular religion, where they follow the Quran) I believe to be a different person (even if they essentially have the same name), because the Quran says different things to the Bible. I don’t think I can argue it one way or another, so have a wonderful day!
16:43 in American English saying “wish somebody would” in this context means that he wants a chance to prove that he can’t be stopped. “I wish somebody would try to stop me so I could show everyone that I can’t be”.
@@mtlewis973 I’m on my phone, didn’t want to write a whole dissertation on African American Vernacular English and it’s appropriation by the dominant culture
@@mtlewis973 “don’t wanna argue about it” yes you do that’s why you replied. It’s the TH-cam comment section, everyone wants to argue. At least I can admit that I’m petty about it.
may i ask, what are ur pronouns? i identify as an attack helicopter. my only pronoun is attack helicopter and if u dont refer to me as that then u are anti LGBTQ+123456789
bignik is the kind of christian that's going to wake up in front of the pearly gates or whatever and be upset when they're told "nah, fam, you were a major asshole, you don't belong here."
That’s the only thing you can do, I am not religious don’t wanna be grouped in with atheists either lol. But I feel pretty confident if there was hypothetically a classical god (that cared about specifically humans) it’d be way more about being decent than preaching anything specific
I grew up fundamentalist and people in my church were also obsessed with the end times. My grandmother believed that Russia would usher in the end of the world. Imagine reading Revelations as a child and being told that you're worthless, that you're going to burn for all of eternity if you even say one swear word. It's extremely traumatic, and that's why I hate content like his, because he's also perpetuating this. His videos are reaching children and people who believe it. You already hear all the time as a fundamentalist evangelical that you are not good enough and you don't deserve love. I hate this so much.
I honestly dislike all the songs that talk about how terrible and horrible us filthy sinners are now. Or the preachers that go into deep detail about how bad we are just bc we are humans. Like it doesn't even matter individually, just bc we are humans, we are sinners, so we are all bad. I get that we are sinners, but everytime I heard that when I was younger it would make me feel like I must be such a garbage person/human being. And I couldn't understand why God would want me to feel that way about myself when He loves me so much. Or the fact that as I got older I met people that were not Christians but were/are genuinely good people. Not for any reason, but just for the sake of being good. Or it's just their personality.
@@lindseyhendrix2405 all im willing to recall anymore about revelations is how much my grandmother would hold that over me about why i should fear god
That's even more awful considering that part was written during Nero's reign and represented Christian fears at the time of their religion being snuffed out, and centuries later it's just another fear tactic and a traumatic way of growing up I had a friend who believed in the Jehovah stuff and was convinced similarly that we were destined to die unless (surprise) we believed the correct religion. It hurt me deeply to see him wield it like some kind of evidence he was above us all, and me, his own best friend. He tried fairly often to make me see the light and all that and I didn't realise the extent their religion went to. I've only recently seen it being described in more detail as being cult like and obsessed around predicting the end of times, so it almost makes sense he was so obsessed with it. It may or may not explain some other facets of his personality but that's getting too personal In conclusion, it's safe to say I'm not exactly religious after being impacted by *someone else* believing in one, I'm truly sorry you had to go through that
I wonder what kind of Christians you interact with because as far as I know Christians have a verse from Jesus that says" Love your neighbors and love God " that's the biggest commendement and also " Love your enemies bless those who curse you" What's irritating about that? Condemning every Christians because of the behavior of some.of them is called bigotry.
It’s funny how Lecrae, one of the biggest rappers in the Christian space is actually super talented. He has a cool presence, good production and his lyrics aren’t cheesy as hell and hateful. So if his fans of his are listening to him because he’s a Christian, they’re fucking up. Because there are actual talented Christian rappers out there to listen too.
"I wish somebody would..." is a phrase in AAVE that basically means the opposite. It's like "I wish you WOULD try to [fill in the blank]" as in, there will be dire consequences if you try it. He just can't pull it off, because it's not really his vernacular to use.
That sounds exactly like the classic passive aggressive phrase “I hope you do” people in general have said for ages in arguments. I’ve heard my late grandfather born in Ireland say that when he would always get into fights with my grandma and that happened all the gd time lol. I was not aware this was AAVE, I thought it was standard Irish/British sarcasm
I know this is like a "not all Christians" situation but I feel this is important This kind of "preaching" and tearing down others, calling the important figures of other religions "frauds" and hurling out this kind of utter spite, is exactly what drove me *away* from christianity and to paganism Because the one who introduced to paganism was accepting of who I am and showed me kindness and acceptance, and the others who I met were similarly accepting Spewing this kind of bitter hatred of everyone and everything you don't agree with doesn't make people want to convert or listen to you, it just drives others away and makes them ignore and disregard you because who wants to be told they're some horrible person for things as simple as how they live their life, beliefs, who they love and how they identify What the hell happened to love thy neighbor?
It's not "not all Christians" it's "You act like this you, aren't a Christian." There are so many actual Christians that are the most accepting people an people like nik over shadow them. I'm glad you found happiness in paganism. People like nik however are the ones who don't deserve your acceptance. They are for sure goin to hell, if that makes any pain you've been caused by those types of "Christians" hurt less.
@@MyLoserBrain i’m not Christian, and i don’t really subscribe to the idea of a specific heaven/hell, but i definitely think he’ll get what he deserves. i like to think good people go to their ideal resting place, and that the bad go to a place that is a manifestation of their wrongdoings. if not that, i feel like our energy moves onto another vessel. all that is to say that he’s either gonna end up in a fucked up eternity or a mosquito. if anyone was gonna end up in hell (within my beliefs) it would probably be a fucker like him LOL
Christians seem to do a great job of driving people away rather than bring them in ironically lol From what I see they’re either super annoying about it forcing it all over or they say horrible negative things to SCARE you into it, which _surprisingly_ doesn’t work 🤔 Guess all those years of forcing the religion on other cultures and people has caught up with them 🤷
I became a pagan for very similar reasons. Ironically it was Christians who introduced me to, and sparked my interest in, paganism. I’m a big fan of not being told from the moment I’m born that I was destined for hell unless I continuously prayed for forgiveness for every little thing. I was born in the south, went to Christian schools, then was homeschooled at a time when the only homeschool groups and online schools (early 2000’s) were Christian, so I was surrounded on all sides by absolute hatred except for the times I was able to read about paganism and then meet other pagans online and, in time, in person. I experimented/learned about other religions, even other denominations of Christianity, but it was paganism that felt like home and felt safe to me.
i cant help feeling sorry for him (slightly) because his whole persona screams that he was heavily bullied coming up...falling into crowds that truly dont respect him on an individual level and then using his platform to further hateful ideologies because he hates himself......i hope he finds a better god if thats what he needs to be whole smh
You were what, I'd call a cultural Christian. It's sad how y'all think hating Christians is a trend. 😂😂😂 Isn't it funny? The caricature you have of Christian's. Pretty funny right! As Jesus said: " Love your enemies and bless those who curse you" What irritates you about that? Pff
17:36 I never really thought about that, but that makes a lot of sense. I listen to a lot of metal, and one of my favorite bands (Disturbed) has amazing cover art imo. In most of their albums it features their mascot ("The Guy" this demonic entity of vengeance with a hood and a toothy grin) in various different settings. I love the abstract horror kinda vibe with it and it really adds to the experience. That Madvillain album art is also really cool. The mask is really detailed and intriquite, and to contrast it the sort of formless shadowy entity behind it is kinda ominous and draws the listener in. Then cut to BigNik's art lmao
Further on the “Allah” thing: Islam itself is an Abrahamic faith, believing in the Abrahamic god. You know what other religions believe in the Abrahamic god? Judaism, Catholicism, _CHRISTIANITY._ Same god, different prophets, different takes on similar texts. It’s like saying the Hellenistic gods are completely different from the Grecian gods, when they’re quite literally the same gods. Just adopted by varying cultures.
Allah is not even a name. Its just word for God in Arabic. Just like in Urdu word for God is Khuda or ilahi. In Hindi Bhagwan. Same in Arabic word for God is Allah. Their are Arab Christians and Jews who say Allah. Because Their language is not English but Arabic.
I wish I knew where these people come from , everytime someone who is somehow popular is shown off to be a weirdo I am left flabberghasted that they have a platform.
i grew up in church bc my parents & grandparents are pastors & i’ve been surrounded by this kind of shit all my life. it’s so insane how they use religion to hide behind messages of hate & bigotry. they seem truly disgusted and saddened by people living differently than them. there is both this “holier than thou” attitude but also “i’m always being persecuted” attitude. it’s basically just narcissism in a religion.
Good time for a reminder that 1 and 2 Timothy, the books that talk about 'submit to your husband' and whatnot, are considered by most modern scholars to be 'pseudo-pauline,' meaning they were not actually written by Paul. They were written by someone decades later who thought adding Paul's name to their beliefs would add some credibility that it didn't have on its own. There's pretty good evidence in the real epistles that Paul respected women as equals in the ministry and opposed marriage as a system altogether. So like if Big Nik was a real Christian who cared about theology and Christian history he wouldn't be blasting all this pseudo-historic reactionary nonsense. I just wanted to give a Christian perspective on why what Nik is saying is not just hateful but also theologically bunk.
I was blaming Paul for all that misogynistic shit that (seemingly) got added into early Christianity after Jesus' death/resurrection and ascendance; guess I should also be blaming Timothy.
As someone who Big Nik would not approve of (Christian in a wrong way, lesbian etc) I'm here to recommend music that actually finally made me feel seen in the Christian music scene! Especially if you're a queer Christian with religious trauma/bad experiences I highly recommend Semler. It was so healing to here someone sing stuff like "I'm fucking gay/ thank god for that/Christians cast me out / but Jesus had my back". Also the video slapped, I was a little anxious going into this but I felt fully supported and heard and oof big Nik is just...not great.
Im an ex-christian. Something I kind so funny about homophobic Christians is that they ignore the fact that Jesus would have totally been chill with the LGBTQ community. In the Bible, he would sit with sinners and love them regardless of the sin they committed. Jesus and the gays would be homies
As a Christian idk how much more I can explain to bignik type of people that "Allah" is just God. Like we all (abrahamic) have the same base god. It's the dlc that's different
If I was god I’d make this guy never be able to plug a USB in the right way. That seems proportional for making sucky rap and saying it’s on my behalf.
I feel kinda bad for that dude. Obsession with the End Times, finding "clues" in TV shows, conspiracies, fear of "hidden satanists", etc sounds a lot like the sort of thing I was into when my mental health took a nosedive circa 2018/2020. The tragic thing about people who fall into that sort of thing is that those thought processes lead them to believe therapists and medications are evil and everyone is out to get them, so they very rarely get help in time. Combine that with being online and everything that it brings to make a bad situation much worse. Either that or he's lying and using religion and panic to sell his music, which is beyond irresponsible apart from cringe.
"wars and rumors of wars" is a prediction that can apply to absolutely any era in human political history. Has there ever not been war? That's just my argument. Several periods of time have looked like the 'end'.
I DIDNT EVEN RECOGNIZE IT WAS YOU I GASPED SO HARD WHEN I READ THE CHANNEL NAME?!? i love this new direction! it feels more fresh and free! i’m loving it
I've warmed up to heavier use of voice effects like Kid Cudi and Juice Wrld, but one thing about them is that they can't really hide all the flaws of a really bad singer like is the case with nik here lmao
I'm pretty sure if it was the end times and he finally got to the gates of heaven Jesus himself would ask "Yo if you knew the end was coming why did you just spend your time making music instead of helping your fellow man?"
When he said the lyric "Read Revelations 21" I pulled out my KJV Bible and did just that, idk why he pointed it out since it's nothing to do with the rest of the song but like, pretty good chapter
Vanity is a sin so instead of just sitting like Thanos Nik should just Thanos-snap himself Also totally agree WAP is a banger. Long live macaroni in a pot 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"Buddha, Allah, all them frauds, Christ the only way" Bro, what? In Christianity, Allah is Jesus' father, or you know, god? Jehovah, Yahweh, YHWH? Same guy my man. And the Buddha(s) aren't deities that are worshipped, they're just humans that have reached enlightenment (aka nirvana)
14:07 Besides that whole language thing, Christian, Muslims & Jews all believe in the same god. 😭 (If I remember correctly) all of their religious texts has the “First/Old Testament” in it. The only reason there are 3 different religions is because they believe in different prophets that was talked about in the religious text. Christians believe the prophet is Jesus, Muslims believe the prophet is Mohammed, & Jews believe that the prophet isn’t here yet. But they all believe in the same god. 😭 He’s just dissing his own god.
We Muslims believe in all the Prophets mentioned in Bible. We also believes in Jesus PBUH but as a Prophet. Prophet Muhammad SAW is last messenger according to Islam. We also believes in Moses PBUH.
i like how he said buddha is a fraud and jesus is the "true god" when buddha never claims to be a god of any kind. also there are many christians who also follow sila.
16:39 I'm fairly certain that when Bignik says " I Wish somebody would" he doesn't literally want someone to silence him he's saying that if someone tried to take away his freedom of speech that would make him mad so he's provoking someone to try and do that so he can make an example out of them. I probably didn't explain it well but the phrase "I wish somebody would" or "I wish you would" is similar to "Do It and see what happens" you're essentially daring someone to do something that would make you angry.
God I love this so much. You take him apart in such a good way without taking down religion itself? There’s some stupid religious people, but it’s no books fault. Maybe how the book was taught but- anYwhO!! Love your work 👏🏻👏🏻 I hope you’re having a great day
James says he’s 6’4”. I remember because I find it weird how so many TH-camrs are tall, which is something I’ve been paying mild attention to since learning Dan and Phil are apparently 6’3” and 6’2” respectively followed by learning seemingly almost every other creator I followed at the time was over 6ft. A lot of leftist TH-camrs in particular seem to be giants too. It is unsurprising to me that you are apparently tall because you are a TH-camr. Whether you’re tall because you’re a TH-camr or whether you became a TH-camr because you were tall is unclear to me.
dude i saw this on my subscription and thought 'hey pinely upload its been ages!' but apparently youtube just havent been recommending them to me :( i will watch them now though
love how ''big nick'' thinks he has never sinned. If someone has sweared before,picked their nose,or eaten too much candy,theyv'e technically ''sinned''. If you constantly worry about ''sinning'' your'e gonna have a bad time. Wer'e all flawed beings. But that doesn't make us ''evil''. It just makes us all human. This silly notion that what have to constantly watch every little action we do is ridiculous.We'd never do a thing if we thought about it all of the time. And that's the point ''the pet shop boys'' made with their song ''it's a sin'' .
an interesting thing to point out, is that 'the second coming'/rapture is an Americanized belief, and that a lot of Christians don't believe it will happen. it's an optional excerpt that a certain population of Christians believe
A lot of 'Christian' features of American sects of Christianity are imo moreso 'American' features of Christianity. A lot of the churches in the US have a protestant base, Calvinist, Presbyterian, Quaker or Pentecostal churches in particular, and Protestantism highlights the grace of god over the penitent actions of the sinner comoared to Catholicism, but even those denominations are very different in other parts of the world than US. It's always wild to try and understand American 'Christianity' from outside looking in - in my country most are Lutheran and Eastern Orthodox christians + Lutheran sub-movements, so both protestant and mystic types, but NOTHING like the strange transactionality of US worship or the idea of rapture and end days apart from VERY fringe movements.
As a singer/songwriter and musician, I've never thought about cover art in the way that you talk about it in this video - I love your take on it, and you're totally right! I'm going to think about it so differently, now.
I know it was just a tiny part of the vid but it was really nice to have someone acknowledge the fact that Christian Arabs exist and aren't a small group either, and have it not be in the context of just using us as a talking point to try hate on Muslims. It's so rare I see anyone mention Arabs or Arabic culture and not be using them interchangeably with Muslim, and idk it felt nice to have Pinely just bring it up as if it were common knowledge and not something crazy :)
16:25 its about the christian horniness of wanting to be persecuted so they can play a victim role and tell everyone that this is a sign that christ is coming soon
Whee! It's Friday the 13th & Pinely uploaded sassy critique of bignik's godbothering rap-mangling ways. He's busting ALL the superstitions & magic thinking like the Kool-Aid Man explodes thru walls. EDIT: ok all the Pine-puns are delightful AF
Its kinda funny how he says he's masculine yet it shows the complete opposite that he's extremely insecure especially since masculinity is an energy and its a presence not something thats physical in clothing

Can’t believe it’s only 250k, swear I’ve heard about you for ages!
I give u props for being a DOOM fan but if you listen to rap/hiphop you should know "wish someone would" is a common saying actually. it's like a threat or a challenge. it's like saying you want all the smoke, you don't care, you wish someone *would* say something so then you can cap em, or beat them up, or whatever lol. not defending this wack ass dude at all I just thought it odd you didn't know the phrase, maybe it's the language barrier
Bignik is the kind of man who says women refuse him because he is short and therefore they're bitches, but his way of flirting and talking to women is treating them as inferior nonhumans.
When he was denied by women, he turned to something that made him feel better. Hating women, Christian ideals that support hating women, etc, what ever will tell him he’s right and he deserves women, nothing that tells him that he has to do something to earn respect
That's a leap
@@ebayaccount675 Bignik supports forced pregnancy and promotes conspiracy theories, it's not a big leap to assume he doesn't consider anyone except cishet male christians fully human as these three things usually don't exist in one person without the other stuff
isn’t the short term for what u said just incel ?
@@wolfgalleader You hit the nail right on the head, I'm somebody who used to be an incel, or at least close to an incel (this was 6 years ago btw). But that is exactly what I did, I was sad and lonely and fed myself a bunch of incel fuel via alt-right/Christian TH-cam videos instead of realizing that blaming all women and being angry at them was just me trying to hide from reality. I still am lonely, but at least I've come to my senses and accepted it.
From a Christian perspective, it's ridiculous to call Buddha a fraud. He never claimed to be a God or Prophet, he was just a wise man who taught a lot of the same stuff as Jesus. Early Church Fathers recognized and respected the teachings of non-Christians as the "wisdoms of the world". They recognized that we can and should learn from wise teachers outside of our own traditions, the wisdoms of the world can be understood as important to more fully understanding our world and our faith. This respect for the "wisdoms of the world" in a Christian framework was in large part responsible for the Renaissance and the flourishing of a culture which sought out wisdom and knowledge in both secular and religious life. They didn't reject Plato or the important Islamic philosophers of the time as frauds, they learned from the wisdoms of the world.
Oh my god yes I was internally screaming when he called Buddha a fraud, like have you ever even researched one of his teachings? Because Buddha literally is not a god. He’s definitely a sorta mythical-ish figure, but he’s no more god then I am. Plus I’m pretty sure that Buddhism’s general rules to live by can be practiced by people of other denominations? As in I think that you can technically be Christian and Buddhist because they don’t conflict actually, since Buddhism doesn’t focus on gods at all and this doesn’t break the rule that Christians must have only one god. My old catholic high school religion teacher said that we had to learn about Buddhism because it helped us be better Catholics, and she was as bigoted and homophobic as they come so what is this Bignik guy doing
Yeah I was thinking that but I wasn't sure. I'm a humanistic jew so I don't know too much about Buddhism but I thought that the Buddha wasn't really a god or a spiritual figure like that, and I asked my mom who's both Jewish and Buddhist and she essentially told me the same thing.
@@kaykeunil well that is your westernised version of Buddhism because in Buddhism we have Vajrapāṇi, Mañjuśrī and Avalokiteśvara.
A Catholic apologist once explained it like this: All religions have at least some truth to them, some have more truth than others, but only one is fully true.
Protestant Christianity (and Catholicism too to a sometimes lesser extent) has become remarkably anti intelectual. Islam obviously has a rich tradition of intellectualism and Catholics still can be often be very scholarly in their approach to things. But Protestants have barley moved past the paranoia of the days of the witch trials. Like you said there were a lot of Protestant thinkers that’s influenced good ideas, but that sure was a short lived tradition lol
I've said this jokingly but I genuinely think there's a chance Nik might start accusing women of witchcraft any day now
He already accused the Stranger Things staff of witchcraft lol.

I saw a sticker on a car in Florida that said "if Jesus had a gun he'd be alive today" so I think it's safe to say that most modern Christians practice a great deal of cognitive dissonance about their lord and savior rather than understand it.
Wow. They really failed to grasp the most basic parts of the Easter story. Christianity teaches that he is still alive, in Christians who love others, and in heaven. He ducking rose from the dead. That is the reason we celebrate Easter as a Christian holiday. That is the whole point. And if you spend even a few minutes reading the chapter before the crucifixion, you can see that Jesus was willing to die. He told his followers *not* to defend him violently.
Also, without the crucifixion, Christian tradition teaches that our salvation would be a lot harder. He needed to die, and then, as commemorated every year at Easter, and with every cross as a Christian symbol, rise from the dead. Part of the confession that is a part of most Christian traditions is also confessing that he is still living, and we want to be in communion with him. Communion is about commemorating the willing sacrifice he made, and the miracle of his resurrection that gives the world hope.
I am sorry for the ramble, I am just sick of this sort of stuff.
Yeah, Jesus, who allegedly had the literal power of God and Heaven behind him, would have been able to avoid crucifixion if only he'd had a *gun.* Sure.
(Also, according to Christian theology, the crucifixion not only had to happen, but was pretty important for the whole "sacrificing himself to cleanse humanity's sins" thing. Also, he supposedly resurrected after three days, meaning he IS alive... what the fuck are y'all American Protestants doing over there/here?)
I need someone to draw jesus with a flintlock or smthn
Jesus CHOSE to die. That's like a key part of the story. Seems concerning to miss that part of the story
Also… Jesus was human. That was like a big part of the story. Son of God but still a man. Bro lived 2000 years ago and he would most definitely NOT be alive today 😭 say you didn't read the story without saying you didn't get the story

Behold: the first "rofl" uttered in over a decade!
I remember supporting Nik when we all found out how he was bullied and abused by David Dobrik, months later he becomes this far right misogynist
Same, it’s a bummer really
Not just misogynistic, transphobic as well... when his sister is a trans girl.
He also claimed that a faith healer healed his disability or something? Which believe in whatever you want about faith healers, but don't suggest it because most of the time they're scamming you for money you should be spending on real doctors. If you wanna waste your money, fine. But don't bring others into it you know?.
Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!!
Remember when Jeff said during the david dobrik down fall, that he said nick did SOMETHING sketchy but never elaborated on it. I'm interested to know what that story is.
People who get pushed out of cult-like environments tend to stumble back into them. It's a sad truth.
I was raised catholic and although I’m not a believer anymore I gained an appreciation for Jesus. He had unconditional love for sinners and people who society looked down upon. Big Nik’s behavior is completely against what Jesus taught, someone needs to read his bible a little more closely 🙄
Fr, I’m not religious but Jesus seems like the kind of guy you’d love to be friends with
Jesus is chill, unfortunately he just has a toxic fanbase
I feel like all non christians agree that jesus is cool but it's just the majority of modern christians that twist his word
fr im not religious anymore but grew uo and still live with a christian family. everyone seems to forget that Jesus treats everyone equally when it comes to his love, and his rule of love thy neighbour... and how he treated kings and prostitutes the exact same... but nah
I am religious and a Christian and I have also noticed this problem the church of Jesus and love has become the church of politics and hate
This isn’t unique to Nik but the way that Christian online influencers constantly promoting themselves through worship and treating themselves as these big heros who are saving peoples souls seem to go against a lot of tenets of Christianity. I was raised Christian and like the biggest things we learn is no idol worship (and if you are making yourself into an online idol…) and to not pray in public. Like. I know that different denominations do things differently but since he likes to talk about the bible so much you’d think he would have learned the basics
There's very few things less Christian than the modern evangelical Christian movement. You can find literal false prophets, people who say that if you donate money to the church you will find financial success on your own, people who embrace a materialistic lifestyle of private jets and manors, and pastors who have fundamental misunderstandings of the whole *thing,* like saying that Satan was behind Jesus' death on the cross.
There's also few things less stupid, which is a real shame. Christianity has literal centuries of scholarship around it, yet it's loudest adherents are deeply reactionary and anti-intellectual.
I highly doubt he's ever actually read the Bible.
is not praying in public very common of one? i grew up catholic so i dont know how other flavors of christian do it
@@ItsMcGeeGents I think it’s common for evangelical christians. I was always taught that public praying was not something that should be done but now I think about it my church was a little unusual
not to pray in public? my dad's a pastor and I've never heard of that being an issue

I’m a HUGE fan of pinely confidently recording “1.5 million views” several times for emphasis over a screenshot that says “1.3 million views”
I did this exact thing like 4 times throughout the video because my brain's dumb
the most hypocritical thing about this all is that "using God's name in vain" doesn't mean "don't say oh my God", it means "don't use God's name to promote something He wouldn't agree with". nik using religion to guilt trip people into listening to his shitty songs is literally a sin, and yet he dares to criticize other people for just existing
this dude filming himself crying over WAP getting more views than him is the funniest shit ive ever seen
he had some wet-ass eyeballs over that song
Bro really thinks that he, as an internet nobody, can compete with an A lister celeb. I don't like Wap or Cardi B, but I would sooner listen to that on repeat than Bignik, he's just so full of 💩

or in the words of danny gonzalez, "pitbulls music is for people who dont listen to the words"
@@kit6561 Which is funny cause the Christians who don't make their entire life centered around the bible probably (not all of them) listen to secular music, like Pitbull, Beyonce, G-Eazy, or Cardi.
Lol the Jake Paul teacher video
Generally, a good rule to follow when looking for good Christian music is "who does this song glorify?"
The point being that Christian music is a form of worship, and should be focused entirely on God. Big Nik's music seems to be mostly about how everyone hates him for holding conservative views.
I genuinely hope that he's just doing this for attention, and doesn't actually hold those beliefs about Christianity
I came here to say this! Couldn’t agree more!
I've just listened to Powerwolf in terms of christian music, and aside from the fact that it slaps, it only talks about God and about they serve Him. Never put down a non-beliver, or a believer of other religion.
yep! i grew up around some great christian music and while i dont follow the practice anymore, the songs still slap even tho theyre religious (and they have some p good messages outside of christianity)
@@karumeg I love me some Skillet. One of my favorite songs is called "Long Black Train" by Josh Turner. Also, I hate some people of certain religions (mostly because a small minority ruined them for me) but I love and will never put down those who believe in a deity. Buda, Allah, or god. As long as you're not mean, like someone this video is talking about, then the music is good and all is good.

His audience only listens to him because it repeats their preconditioned beliefs. They don't care if it's bad, or honestly if he's doing it as a grift. It's the same reason people listen to Tom Macdonald.
I actually got recommended a Tom Macdonald video once. I watched some of it until I remembered who Tom Macdonald was and said yeah no. In the video he was complaining about he should be number 1 on the charts based on record sales but because he was selling CDs or something like that the charts wouldn’t list him. There was also something about a third party company that he had needed to use involving getting ranked. But I kinda stopped caring because of his whining and big music narrative. I also highly doubt he was as high up in the charts as he thought he was. Interesting how I found maybe one or two comments being reasonable while all the others were ass kissing and going on about how it was so important for him to expose big music like this. Now that I think of it, I didn’t even get halfway through the video. Imagine what else he was spouting off about how great he is (probably including tour dates, listen to his stuff because he doesn’t put his music on streaming sites, etc) and how evil big music is

Man I swear why do people have to make religion bigger than it has to be, I am a Christian believer not a blind follower, People gotta learn to think for themselves, like the Bible was not written by God himself but by other humans and it's interpretation has changed multiple times, I believe in the commandments because I actually think it makes life better for me and for the people around me. I feel people use our religion as a shield to hide behind while they spread hate. An example of this is when people say well I hate gays and when you ask why well it is of course because the Bible says so, What about love thy neighbor as thyself. Sorry for this rant stuff like this just makes me sad.
I also hated the line about other religions being frauds. I probably don't have to get into why because it is pretty clear.
Ok as another Christian, I disagree that the Bible wasn’t made by God. In my opinion God made the Bible, but *through* other humans. It wasn’t simply made *by* other humans.
But that’s just my opinion. Take it how you like :)
Otherwise, I agree 👍
also the bible never said anything about gay people til the 1970s, changed by the church. Originally talking about pedophilia being a sin. Not like the church cares about that though. :/
@agh Makes sense :) I’m quite aware that they’re translations and that’s why there are so many ☺️
@@Cyra_The_Jedi just to add on to that, there are "edits" that have been made to the bible to reflect the political beliefs of people in power.

Islam builds off of Christianity in the same way Christianity builds off of Judaism.
EDIT: I know people tend to discredit wikipedia, but this article seems to be confirming what I brought up en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_in_Islam
@@lordskeletor481 True. Yeah the main difference is that we see Jesus as the son of God (but actually God coming down to earth as a human. The trinity can be confusing to explain), whereas the Muslims see him as a prophet I think.

@@Cyra_The_Jedi I personally wouldn't treat Christianity in the Arab world and Christianity in North America / Europe as two different religions, though.

And I couldn't understand why God would want me to feel that way about myself when He loves me so much. Or the fact that as I got older I met people that were not Christians but were/are genuinely good people. Not for any reason, but just for the sake of being good. Or it's just their personality.
I can’t agree more. You should check out the Holy Post podcast on Revelations!
@@lindseyhendrix2405 all im willing to recall anymore about revelations is how much my grandmother would hold that over me about why i should fear god
That's even more awful considering that part was written during Nero's reign and represented Christian fears at the time of their religion being snuffed out, and centuries later it's just another fear tactic and a traumatic way of growing up
I had a friend who believed in the Jehovah stuff and was convinced similarly that we were destined to die unless (surprise) we believed the correct religion. It hurt me deeply to see him wield it like some kind of evidence he was above us all, and me, his own best friend. He tried fairly often to make me see the light and all that and I didn't realise the extent their religion went to.
I've only recently seen it being described in more detail as being cult like and obsessed around predicting the end of times, so it almost makes sense he was so obsessed with it. It may or may not explain some other facets of his personality but that's getting too personal
In conclusion, it's safe to say I'm not exactly religious after being impacted by *someone else* believing in one, I'm truly sorry you had to go through that
I wonder what kind of Christians you interact with because as far as I know Christians have a verse from Jesus that says" Love your neighbors and love God " that's the biggest commendement and also " Love your enemies bless those who curse you"
What's irritating about that?
Condemning every Christians because of the behavior of some.of them is called bigotry.
It’s funny how Lecrae, one of the biggest rappers in the Christian space is actually super talented. He has a cool presence, good production and his lyrics aren’t cheesy as hell and hateful. So if his fans of his are listening to him because he’s a Christian, they’re fucking up. Because there are actual talented Christian rappers out there to listen too.
christian rappers are talented since 99.9% of rap music is based around topics that christians see as taboo (imo), its hard to do that shit

"I wish somebody would..." is a phrase in AAVE that basically means the opposite. It's like "I wish you WOULD try to [fill in the blank]" as in, there will be dire consequences if you try it. He just can't pull it off, because it's not really his vernacular to use.
I do not think it is exclusive to AAVE.
@@notapplicable6985 not exclusive anymore, but that's where it originated.
That sounds exactly like the classic passive aggressive phrase “I hope you do” people in general have said for ages in arguments. I’ve heard my late grandfather born in Ireland say that when he would always get into fights with my grandma and that happened all the gd time lol. I was not aware this was AAVE, I thought it was standard Irish/British sarcasm
@@KiraBKADestroyerOfWorlds I thought it had originated in Britain.
@@notapplicable6985 the sentiment may not be exclusive to AAE but the phrasing “I wish somebody would” specifically is
I know this is like a "not all Christians" situation but I feel this is important
This kind of "preaching" and tearing down others, calling the important figures of other religions "frauds" and hurling out this kind of utter spite, is exactly what drove me *away* from christianity and to paganism
Because the one who introduced to paganism was accepting of who I am and showed me kindness and acceptance, and the others who I met were similarly accepting
Spewing this kind of bitter hatred of everyone and everything you don't agree with doesn't make people want to convert or listen to you, it just drives others away and makes them ignore and disregard you because who wants to be told they're some horrible person for things as simple as how they live their life, beliefs, who they love and how they identify
What the hell happened to love thy neighbor?
It's not "not all Christians" it's "You act like this you, aren't a Christian." There are so many actual Christians that are the most accepting people an people like nik over shadow them.
I'm glad you found happiness in paganism. People like nik however are the ones who don't deserve your acceptance. They are for sure goin to hell, if that makes any pain you've been caused by those types of "Christians" hurt less.
heyy, a fellow pagan
@@MyLoserBrain i’m not Christian, and i don’t really subscribe to the idea of a specific heaven/hell, but i definitely think he’ll get what he deserves. i like to think good people go to their ideal resting place, and that the bad go to a place that is a manifestation of their wrongdoings. if not that, i feel like our energy moves onto another vessel. all that is to say that he’s either gonna end up in a fucked up eternity or a mosquito. if anyone was gonna end up in hell (within my beliefs) it would probably be a fucker like him LOL
Christians seem to do a great job of driving people away rather than bring them in ironically lol From what I see they’re either super annoying about it forcing it all over or they say horrible negative things to SCARE you into it, which _surprisingly_ doesn’t work 🤔
Guess all those years of forcing the religion on other cultures and people has caught up with them 🤷
I became a pagan for very similar reasons. Ironically it was Christians who introduced me to, and sparked my interest in, paganism. I’m a big fan of not being told from the moment I’m born that I was destined for hell unless I continuously prayed for forgiveness for every little thing.
I was born in the south, went to Christian schools, then was homeschooled at a time when the only homeschool groups and online schools (early 2000’s) were Christian, so I was surrounded on all sides by absolute hatred except for the times I was able to read about paganism and then meet other pagans online and, in time, in person. I experimented/learned about other religions, even other denominations of Christianity, but it was paganism that felt like home and felt safe to me.
Does bignik not know that Allah and the Christian God is the SAMe God? 😂
Guaranteed no. I learned that shit in catholic school.
@@cupofcait that Allah and God aren't the same or that bignik is a bigdik? 😂
They're not the same.

i cant help feeling sorry for him (slightly) because his whole persona screams that he was heavily bullied coming up...falling into crowds that truly dont respect him on an individual level and then using his platform to further hateful ideologies because he hates himself......i hope he finds a better god if thats what he needs to be whole smh
You were what, I'd call a cultural Christian.
It's sad how y'all think hating Christians is a trend.
😂😂😂
Isn't it funny?
The caricature you have of Christian's.
Pretty funny right!
As Jesus said: " Love your enemies and bless those who curse you"
What irritates you about that?
Pff
If bignik is a bad person.
Is it the fault of Christians?
@@R-rr1No and nobody is saying that
17:36 I never really thought about that, but that makes a lot of sense. I listen to a lot of metal, and one of my favorite bands (Disturbed) has amazing cover art imo. In most of their albums it features their mascot ("The Guy" this demonic entity of vengeance with a hood and a toothy grin) in various different settings. I love the abstract horror kinda vibe with it and it really adds to the experience. That Madvillain album art is also really cool. The mask is really detailed and intriquite, and to contrast it the sort of formless shadowy entity behind it is kinda ominous and draws the listener in. Then cut to BigNik's art lmao
I had to look up disturbed album covers, and wow 😲 waaay better
Ooh now that sound like a band worth checking out
@@me-dc8pjYou haven't heard of Disturbed before? I thought everyone at least knows down with the sickness
Further on the “Allah” thing: Islam itself is an Abrahamic faith, believing in the Abrahamic god. You know what other religions believe in the Abrahamic god? Judaism, Catholicism, _CHRISTIANITY._ Same god, different prophets, different takes on similar texts.
It’s like saying the Hellenistic gods are completely different from the Grecian gods, when they’re quite literally the same gods. Just adopted by varying cultures.
Allah is not even a name. Its just word for God in Arabic. Just like in Urdu word for God is Khuda or ilahi. In Hindi Bhagwan. Same in Arabic word for God is Allah. Their are Arab Christians and Jews who say Allah. Because Their language is not English but Arabic.
I wish I knew where these people come from , everytime someone who is somehow popular is shown off to be a weirdo I am left flabberghasted that they have a platform.
Is that how I’m supposed to spell flabbergasted?

I love that he is disrespecting Allah and saying God is the only way when Allah is literally just God in Arabic
I commented this right before you addressed it but im glad you agree
22:36 ah, the illuminati, I was wondering when the antisemitism was gonna kick in
i grew up in church bc my parents & grandparents are pastors & i’ve been surrounded by this kind of shit all my life. it’s so insane how they use religion to hide behind messages of hate & bigotry. they seem truly disgusted and saddened by people living differently than them. there is both this “holier than thou” attitude but also “i’m always being persecuted” attitude. it’s basically just narcissism in a religion.
Exactly
"That's pretty nice of him, I thought he was just being a dick" made me crack up
it sounds like he records his raps while standing 4 feet away from the microphone
Good time for a reminder that 1 and 2 Timothy, the books that talk about 'submit to your husband' and whatnot, are considered by most modern scholars to be 'pseudo-pauline,' meaning they were not actually written by Paul. They were written by someone decades later who thought adding Paul's name to their beliefs would add some credibility that it didn't have on its own. There's pretty good evidence in the real epistles that Paul respected women as equals in the ministry and opposed marriage as a system altogether.
So like if Big Nik was a real Christian who cared about theology and Christian history he wouldn't be blasting all this pseudo-historic reactionary nonsense. I just wanted to give a Christian perspective on why what Nik is saying is not just hateful but also theologically bunk.
I was blaming Paul for all that misogynistic shit that (seemingly) got added into early Christianity after Jesus' death/resurrection and ascendance; guess I should also be blaming Timothy.
As someone who Big Nik would not approve of (Christian in a wrong way, lesbian etc) I'm here to recommend music that actually finally made me feel seen in the Christian music scene! Especially if you're a queer Christian with religious trauma/bad experiences I highly recommend Semler. It was so healing to here someone sing stuff like "I'm fucking gay/ thank god for that/Christians cast me out / but Jesus had my back".
Also the video slapped, I was a little anxious going into this but I felt fully supported and heard and oof big Nik is just...not great.
Oh and I loved the discussion about cover art! Very accurate and interesting.
Im an ex-christian. Something I kind so funny about homophobic Christians is that they ignore the fact that Jesus would have totally been chill with the LGBTQ community. In the Bible, he would sit with sinners and love them regardless of the sin they committed. Jesus and the gays would be homies
As a Christian idk how much more I can explain to bignik type of people that "Allah" is just God. Like we all (abrahamic) have the same base god. It's the dlc that's different
DLC is one way to put it lol
Nope they are not the same.
It boggles my mind how ignorant westerners are about Islam!
Please do watch Christian Prince debates on ytb

I feel kinda bad for that dude. Obsession with the End Times, finding "clues" in TV shows, conspiracies, fear of "hidden satanists", etc sounds a lot like the sort of thing I was into when my mental health took a nosedive circa 2018/2020. The tragic thing about people who fall into that sort of thing is that those thought processes lead them to believe therapists and medications are evil and everyone is out to get them, so they very rarely get help in time. Combine that with being online and everything that it brings to make a bad situation much worse.
Either that or he's lying and using religion and panic to sell his music, which is beyond irresponsible apart from cringe.
I will wholeheartedly support rapping, talking or anything really about genitals. I would listen to anything rather than listening to his music.
hi from Italy. Formal request for you to do an entire video speaking in Italian so I can simp even harder. please sir I am begging you
Yes Pinely, fulfill this little Italian's dream!
"wars and rumors of wars" is a prediction that can apply to absolutely any era in human political history. Has there ever not been war? That's just my argument. Several periods of time have looked like the 'end'.
You are definitely a big tough boy. Thank you.
if husbands should dominate their wives then why do I want a tall stronk woman to cuddle me. checkin mate christians
I DIDNT EVEN RECOGNIZE IT WAS YOU I GASPED SO HARD WHEN I READ THE CHANNEL NAME?!? i love this new direction! it feels more fresh and free! i’m loving it
Honestly loving the direction you're taking with your videos, I'm totally here for it
The true sin is that level of Autotune.
I've warmed up to heavier use of voice effects like Kid Cudi and Juice Wrld, but one thing about them is that they can't really hide all the flaws of a really bad singer like is the case with nik here lmao
I also love how he called his song "Gospel music" which... gospel music is a genre, not just any song about God
I'm pretty sure if it was the end times and he finally got to the gates of heaven Jesus himself would ask "Yo if you knew the end was coming why did you just spend your time making music instead of helping your fellow man?"
When he said the lyric "Read Revelations 21" I pulled out my KJV Bible and did just that, idk why he pointed it out since it's nothing to do with the rest of the song but like, pretty good chapter
Vanity is a sin so instead of just sitting like Thanos Nik should just Thanos-snap himself
Also totally agree WAP is a banger. Long live macaroni in a pot 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
He talks alot of shit for someone that could easily be kicked across a football field…
As a christian, you did not hear me say this but do it.
"Buddha, Allah, all them frauds, Christ the only way"
Bro, what? In Christianity, Allah is Jesus' father, or you know, god? Jehovah, Yahweh, YHWH? Same guy my man. And the Buddha(s) aren't deities that are worshipped, they're just humans that have reached enlightenment (aka nirvana)
I thought the cover art was Big Nik hugging a large woman 😂 We all wanna be carried around by a giant woman, Nik. Just own it
Love the drawing of him hugging Chewbacca.
14:07
Besides that whole language thing, Christian, Muslims & Jews all believe in the same god. 😭
(If I remember correctly) all of their religious texts has the “First/Old Testament” in it. The only reason there are 3 different religions is because they believe in different prophets that was talked about in the religious text. Christians believe the prophet is Jesus, Muslims believe the prophet is Mohammed, & Jews believe that the prophet isn’t here yet. But they all believe in the same god. 😭
He’s just dissing his own god.
We Muslims believe in all the Prophets mentioned in Bible. We also believes in Jesus PBUH but as a Prophet. Prophet Muhammad SAW is last messenger according to Islam. We also believes in Moses PBUH.
Tired of Nik trying to save me let me burn dammit
Bignik: "I'm a Christian"
Also Bignik: "Allah is a fraud"
Allah: (is supposed to be the same Entity as Jehovah, AKA Jesus' Dad)
i like how he said buddha is a fraud and jesus is the "true god" when buddha never claims to be a god of any kind. also there are many christians who also follow sila.
watching pinely discuss these topics is way better than looking into them myself, the way he talks gives off a comforting aura lol
16:39 I'm fairly certain that when Bignik says " I Wish somebody would" he doesn't literally want someone to silence him he's saying that if someone tried to take away his freedom of speech that would make him mad so he's provoking someone to try and do that so he can make an example out of them. I probably didn't explain it well but the phrase "I wish somebody would" or "I wish you would" is similar to "Do It and see what happens" you're essentially daring someone to do something that would make you angry.
could also be him saying that his haters wish somebody would silence him
@@daisy-td9qs that's also possible.
God I love this so much. You take him apart in such a good way without taking down religion itself? There’s some stupid religious people, but it’s no books fault. Maybe how the book was taught but- anYwhO!! Love your work 👏🏻👏🏻 I hope you’re having a great day
as a believer in christ myself, i can confirm this is not good
James says he’s 6’4”. I remember because I find it weird how so many TH-camrs are tall, which is something I’ve been paying mild attention to since learning Dan and Phil are apparently 6’3” and 6’2” respectively followed by learning seemingly almost every other creator I followed at the time was over 6ft. A lot of leftist TH-camrs in particular seem to be giants too. It is unsurprising to me that you are apparently tall because you are a TH-camr. Whether you’re tall because you’re a TH-camr or whether you became a TH-camr because you were tall is unclear to me.
dude i saw this on my subscription and thought 'hey pinely upload its been ages!' but apparently youtube just havent been recommending them to me :( i will watch them now though
love how ''big nick'' thinks he has never sinned. If someone has sweared before,picked their nose,or eaten too much candy,theyv'e technically ''sinned''. If you constantly worry about ''sinning'' your'e gonna have a bad time. Wer'e all flawed beings. But that doesn't make us ''evil''. It just makes us all human. This silly notion that what have to constantly watch every little action we do is ridiculous.We'd never do a thing if we thought about it all of the time. And that's the point ''the pet shop boys'' made with their song ''it's a sin'' .
an interesting thing to point out, is that 'the second coming'/rapture is an Americanized belief, and that a lot of Christians don't believe it will happen. it's an optional excerpt that a certain population of Christians believe
A lot of 'Christian' features of American sects of Christianity are imo moreso 'American' features of Christianity. A lot of the churches in the US have a protestant base, Calvinist, Presbyterian, Quaker or Pentecostal churches in particular, and Protestantism highlights the grace of god over the penitent actions of the sinner comoared to Catholicism, but even those denominations are very different in other parts of the world than US. It's always wild to try and understand American 'Christianity' from outside looking in - in my country most are Lutheran and Eastern Orthodox christians + Lutheran sub-movements, so both protestant and mystic types, but NOTHING like the strange transactionality of US worship or the idea of rapture and end days apart from VERY fringe movements.

As a singer/songwriter and musician, I've never thought about cover art in the way that you talk about it in this video - I love your take on it, and you're totally right! I'm going to think about it so differently, now.
If we consider Nik's height we can assume Jesus is holding him like a baby in that cover art.
20:00. So Pinely, your "Not Finished" joke about Biggles Nikolas' song "Not Finished" is... not going to be finished?

I know it was just a tiny part of the vid but it was really nice to have someone acknowledge the fact that Christian Arabs exist and aren't a small group either, and have it not be in the context of just using us as a talking point to try hate on Muslims. It's so rare I see anyone mention Arabs or Arabic culture and not be using them interchangeably with Muslim, and idk it felt nice to have Pinely just bring it up as if it were common knowledge and not something crazy :)
killing me bc Buddha isnt a god.
big nik sounds like he's 2 years old
"wish somebody would" is an adaptation of "wish a (n-word) would" which is aave meaning basically "try me"
what he’s doing is what the “taking his name in vain” commandment is actually about
love you stuff man, you also inspired me to make my own video about Big Nik and his conspiracy escapades. :)
Thank you so much for this 😂
16:25 its about the christian horniness of wanting to be persecuted so they can play a victim role and tell everyone that this is a sign that christ is coming soon
Whee! It's Friday the 13th & Pinely uploaded sassy critique of bignik's godbothering rap-mangling ways. He's busting ALL the superstitions & magic thinking like the Kool-Aid Man explodes thru walls.
EDIT: ok all the Pine-puns are delightful AF
Its kinda funny how he says he's masculine yet it shows the complete opposite that he's extremely insecure especially since masculinity is an energy and its a presence not something thats physical in clothing
