I'm ignoring WWIII for this
Same
Same
people worry that it might happen, i am going to just live life and go watch a movie, i have asthma , so if they shoot off some nukes, i will be dead any ways . so ya, i say the same thing....... "same"
Lady Wanderer you’ll know for the rest of your existence
If I went out in a flash of radioactive poof while watching this.... I'd be ok with that if I was going to go anyway.
Christian movies should write black characters as a whole person instead of just three fifths.
Round of applause for that joke.
the movie did the "sassy' token black sidekick *and* the "sassy" token gay sidekick. that feels like cheating. you can only have one sassy sidekick.
To be fair, evangelicals are so estranged from other humans and so in denial of human nature that they write *all* of their characters as 3/5s of a person.
Aaron Trigg When that line came up, it cut to an ad right after Hugo's reaction shot. It was like it was scripted. Gave me a chance to mentally digest that line.
The funny thing is the Sassy Black Woman supported Sorbo to the end while the Sassy Gay Man is portayed as a mean spirited character and doesn't get redeemed. That's one heck of a metaphor.
why? they truly believe that "colored" are only 3/5 of the "real" person. Make them full in the movie would be a ... lie ))
Who pays the emotional bills? Nobody in this house. I owe millions in emotional debt. My emotional credit is terrible, I spend all day dodging calls and collectors from the feely-bank.
Lmao rotfl
Joke's on you, I started trading emotional stocks years ago, and now I'm livin' the good life.
did the mother actually have a job in the movie? It sounds like she's unemployed but still uses Sorbo's character for all her money needs while bragging about how she's a stay at home mom.
Here - have two fucks from me toward paying your debt...those feely collectors can leave you insensitive and abjectly bereft (much like this movie.)
@@MattEldritchHorror only accurate portrayal of reality in the movie.
A question this movie refuses to ask: “If an experience like this could convert a total atheist, why doesn’t God give everyone the same experience?”
I've come to conclusion that either God really doesn't care that much about saving people, or He's incompetent.
@@HylianFox3 Maybe not incompetent, just limited...the tri-omni Triune Oneness of the Godhead is a later idea that developed over time while the original text of the Torah (especially Genesis, which is a collection of Mesopotamian stories) has been found to probably be referring to the Anunnaki, who are powerful but ultimately finite and are currently away on their home planet or something and can't reach us, and the Godhead isn't technically necessarily omni-anything in the rest of the Book either.
@@HylianFox3 Either god is willing to prevent evil, but not able, which means he’s not all powerful
Or he’s able but not willing, so he’s not good.
And if it’s neither, why worship him?
Because each person has different lessons to learn, either by going through harfships or by watching someone else go through them.
@@ulaper6465 that's dumb though.
Let's be honest, the audience is supposed to dismiss the doctor's genuinely sensible and compelling scientific explanation of Sorbo's near death experience because the writer had it come out of the mouth of an Indian woman
Guess Kevin Sorbo is about as down with women and Indians as he is with Muslims.
When you guys took the video down, I thought you had been emotionally demonetised!! Who will pay the emotional bills?!
Rex Ablett lmao
Hannity
You sir, win this week's internet.
That's a good question - those, and my EGG BILLS, are through the roof!
Sex, drugs and rock and roll has never been so uncool.
Totally Radical in a nutshell.
He really said Sex, drugs, and rock n roll
WOMANpukumaru Its obvious they have no idea how athiest act
WOMANpukumaru well there under the impression that all athiest really believe in god they just dont wan to say so cause there mad at him. Trust me I have hardcore christian around me.
I wouldn't call them douche bags just real passive aggressive
The worst part is that by including rock and roll last, it sounds lke he used "and" twice while listing things.
Seriously, if Hell exists, I think it would be one continuous party with the best rock bands in the world. Of course everyone would pretend to be in fiery pain if that megalomaniac Israelite deity ever took a peek into Hell. Soon as he satisfied himself that the sinners were suffering and returned to Heaven, the fun would resume.
So he suffered a head injury, does a complete 180 in terms of lifestyle and proposes to his ex after one date. Nothing wrong there.
Yeah, totally realistic.
So Goku's backstory?
@@autobotstarscream765 no he never beat his wife
No brain damage from being dead for 4 minute
Don’t forget about the minister and Jesus getting whacked. Badda Bing, baby!
Oh then he gets Christian. Immediately.
I've listened to a great many debates between atheists and theists. In none of them did the atheist tell the story of how he hates god for taking their loved one away.
As someone who debates online frequently, what I think is happening with the Sorbo type people (as in people who think like him) is that they hear people like myself asking about the problem of evil, or perhaps they hear us saying that the Bible God is an evil bully and if he were real, I can't follow him.
It might be that they're not getting what it is we mean. If I say stuff like the above, I don't mean that right this very minute, I really do believe Bible God exists and that I think he's an asshole.
No...what I'm saying is that your religion, your holy book, tells us about this character called God or Yahweh or Jehovah or whatever, and according to what you guys say... *if* this guy were real, then I cannot morally justify following and worshipping him. Just like if Emperor Palpatine were real, I cannot morally justify following and worshipping him.
Right this minute, I'm an atheist. That means I don't believe your god exists. I'm not secretly hating him.
On the other hand...if he is real...then yeah...I would call him an asshole. If he is as your religion describes as, especially the Old Testament.
But for me to believe that the Biblical God is real AND an asshole...well that requires me to believe he is real. At this moment, I believe his portrayal within the religion makes him out to be an asshole. Whether that has any relation to a real God is still kinda up in the air.
Sean Hannity might not be related to Kevin Sorbo, but they've had relations.
Scott Plumer do think he dresses up in Hercules or the Andromeda costume?
homoerotic
murphy7801 andromeda
Brokeback Fundies.
Kevin Sappho and Queen Hannity
I love Christian movie logic sometimes "This guy was a criminal, he's trustworthy"
@mldfry They're called clergymen. The literal white collar criminals.
“Well duh he’s trustworthy. He’s not an atheist” - also Christian movie logic
I want to add, a person with a criminal record is not inherently untrustworthy
I happened to have a timer set on my phone while watching this review, it went off RIGHT when the wife died. Her time ran out.
It was the funniest moment of my morning.
TheCyberwoman she needs a time transplant.
Kevin Sorbo’s Hercules (and Xena) were such a huge part of my adolescence that it really hurts seeing him doing shit like this...
same
Ditto
same with Chuck Norris
Ett Gammalt Bergtroll never meet your heros am i right
Ikr, him and Dean Cain was such fun tv heroes. And now I just feel sorry for both of them.
Less than 8 minutes in and I already learned something new, I'd never heard of Misotheism before. Thanks, guys!
Katt Partnoy same root as Misogyny and Misandry. But Christians just like to call all 3 atheists.
Anon S. huh, that’s really interesting. Thank you.
They mention it in their God's Not Dead review, which I highly suggest watching. :)
Sounds like a belief system in miso soup
Space Wizard I could get on board with that. All hail the superfood! For it shall aid your digestion and bring you a healthier lifestyle!
Is it ironic that a guy so responsible for a rise in the popularity of the greek gods in the 90's, would make so many christian movies?
No, really - is it? Ever since Alanis Morissette, I can't tell anymore.
(In defense of the permission slip - at least in my country, you'd need permission from all parents with custody rights, for the kid to leave the country)
one has to wonder if Kevin Sorbo Feels shame for promoting pagan gods, but going by this movie, shame is a concept he dont understand
@@markusnavergard2387 So he feels something he doesn't understand?
One of the multiple personages that get addressed as "Satan" (Adversary) in the Bible is Zeus in the NT (narratively speaking, it's right after a previous Satan was defeated at the Cross so God and His people are ready to move on to fighting the next Satan), making Zeus a rival sky daddy instead of the Judeo-Christian Sky Daddy (who hates rivals), and the Bible overlaps with the Greco-Roman beliefs at times, so Greco-Roman stories such as Sorbo's Hercules were very popular with staunch Christians back then who saw the stories of Zeus and Poseidon as more compatible with their beliefs than that pesky weird Pokeyman with its religion of Evolutionism being taught by mouse demons, especially since Roman Catholicism had long adhered to Romanticism, keeping the Roman gods and stories alive as a cultural inheritance and using them allegorically to teach Christianity, sometimes culturally conflating the two in Western civilization.
I like how Kevin Sorbos wife is supposed to be going through chemo, but it is so obvious that she is just covering her hair up. Also she still has eyebrows.
also... if haven is so cool. why even start a chemo?
Zombiepull, Everyone loves heaven, but nobody is in a hurry to get there. Kind of odd, when you think that they really believe they're going to see all of their loved ones when they get there. I'm surprised Christianity isn't one giant suicide cult.
i guess that the reason why suicide sends u strait to hell.
ElveeKaye huh. Being a former Lutheran I never thought of that
I'm pretty sure that that's historically accurate.
Although I don't think not availing yourself of any medical option is considered suicide by Christians, especially if you justify it by "I'm trusting in God's plan." (Cuz an omnipotent being's plans can easily be foiled by the actions of mere mortals, amirite?)
"This is the face of a woman forced to act like she's excited about being donged by Kevin Sorbo" and Monster energy drink comes out of my nose. Thanks a lot, Hugo and Jake.
It would be more fun if he returned from paradise with the powers of Hercules but with divine knowledge, so every villain he faced he could punch far away or use a biblical quote. Like the Bibleman.
Good lord, something I didn't know I wanted till now. They should cast Kevin Sorbo as the next Bibleman.
IDEAS PEOPLE! What’s the backstory of Sorbo’s Bibleman? V1 was a frustrated millionaire who found a Bible in the mud, V2... just happened, but what about V3!?
Remember, this is Bibleman so there’s no such thing as a bad idea.
KS Bibleman V3. He was mugged after losing his family to a drunk driver. He finds Bible left in his hospital nightstand and prays for the ability to stop Satan. A light comes down, a golden hand touches him and he is reborn as Bibleman: The God touched. No he has the ability to Quote the Bible and one punch evil.
I never knew I needed ripped Kevin Sorbo fighting strawman atheists with a lightsaber until now.
"a golden hand touches him ..." but ... where? Maybe by his balls? I could imagine a scene like in "the green mile"
Apparently the makers of this film don’t at all grasp that acid does not do the same thing to your brain as head trauma+lack of oxygen from your heart stopping and thus will produce different types of hallucinations and hallucinations of much greater intensity than LSD which just binds to you 5-HT2 (serotonin) receptors. Not that I’m surprised, just disappointed that they didn’t even try to find out how hallucinogenic drugs work vs how neurons dying and hypoxia do.
No Kaylie, LSD works by letting demons and Satan access your mind. Or at least that's what I was told when I was a kid.
Kaylie Vaden story of my life
At least they could have said DMT. At least that's extreme visual hallucinations
Rob Schneider is... A STAPLER?!
Rated PG 13
Derpdey derpdey derp!
Beautiful
Also people have had near death experiences all over the world and ones claiming they saw the afterlife describe different versions. Why? Because it's a dream like state. A person asleep in Japan won't dream of Mummies in the same way someone in America doesnt dream of Yokai. Because there different respective cultueres differently influence what they imagine.
Exactly. Great comment.
@Kobe Newland
I can't speculate on what you just said, but doing so has creative consequences... Being a writer who's a Christian and mythology enthusiast is problematic like that you see...
And some people do have these experiences and they do enter into a period of thought about the nature of life.
Enter into a period.
Like years.
What’s with the “world’s biggest atheist? What is a big atheist?
So, was he the biggest XTN until his kid died?
They call him Doctor.
In what discipline is his doctorate?
Is he a professor? Where does he teach? What does he teach?
Do ya think anyone in this production has any awareness of anything related to academia?
So happy this has been reuploaded! :D I watched the whole video the first time around and I was worried when I couldn't find it again
Light a candle for Fireproof to get reuploaded as well.
So I'm not going crazy! I watched it too and I usually watch the videos more than once and I couldn't find it and thought I'd lost my mind! XD
I only got halfway through, had to turn it off, and when I came back it was gone... Glad to see i get to finish it!
Chris Farrow I had the same thing. Glad it's back on.
Did it really?
Why?😂
"The truth is murder to them." That's funny coming from a guy who posted a picture of a welfare office in Thailand where people lined up with their shoes while they waited on their iPhones and he insinuated that it was a U.S. welfare office.
Scott Smith He might be a douchebag.
Might be?
The straw-man-atheist-Kevin-Sorbo book title made me cringe so badly. That title, I just... what?
You know, you'd think someone who wants to do a movie about an atheist who does public debate with Christians would actually watch a few debates as basic research. Clearly, that was not the case.
What if he did, but thought they'd have to be strawmannified to sound less reasonable?
1:The thing about being "clinically dead" is, your heart and lungs have stopped working.
Which means that your brain isn't getting any oxygen.
And the brain tends to get severely damaged when deprived of oxygen for more than about a minute.
After 4 minutes without oxygen, he would be a vegetable.
2: Also, if a person goes to visit their dead loved one's grave, and it's been opened, and the coffin is gone, their reaction isn't going to be "Oh my God, he's tuned into a zombie!"; it's going to be "Oh my God, grave-robbers were here! And they stole the body!".
3: 39:50
Washing in a city creek, is NOT sanitary!
4: NO ONE in suburban America addresses their child as "MY SON"!
5: You end hunger and poverty by giving people sex-ed and condoms.
6: You know that your movie is bad, when Sean Hannity is a better actor than its star.
I thought the definition of "clinically dead" had changed to mean something far more irreversible with the concept of "brain death" since cardiac arrest can be reversed by CPR and defibrillators. Did he say he was clinically dead for minutes before anyone came to help? He could have been receiving CPR at that time, which would still help the brain receive blood, no? Hence why he isn't a vegetable.
(Note: edited for clarity the remove errors)
Addendum: to be sure, the changes in his beliefs and the neuronal surge are probably signs of brain damage though. This whole plot seems to be the product of brain damage.
Cheshire Kat there are instances where people survived without oxygen for sometime. Usually with hypothermia or underwater. The best way to determine death is brain activity for that reason. When I had to determine a death on scene I had to check the pupils, even, dilated and fixed. One thing I learned about being a medic is that the body can be amazingly resistant
Megan Ryan
Humans can survive the vacuum of space for up to 150 seconds. How's that for resilience?
But Kevin Sorbo's character was neither underwater, nor hypothermic.
He crashed into a wall.
Cheshire Kat it can still happen, less likely but it’s possible. There’s stories of people waking up in the morgue after being pronounced dead. But he would have a high chance of brain damage for sure. Also there’s this weird phenomenon where you’re more likely to recover from trauma if you’re drunk.
Here's a scene that should've been in the film. After Sol asks Norm if there still friends, Norm should sigh and say "Sol, you have associated yourself with a type of people who consider people like me to be second class citizens at best and monsters to be exterminated at worst all for something I can't change. You should be asking if you still want to be friends with me." To which Sol would reply "Don't worry. I won't tell anyone you're British."
Damn, this is good!
Awesome.
Wait wait wait... That's the END? We're skipping over the dead wife and the grief-the thing that drove Kevin away from God in the first place? His wife and son are dead but because SEAN FUCKING HANNITY JESUS 9-11 **begins throwing objects and screaming incoherently**
That 3/5 joke was probably the greatest joke I've ever heard.
Darn I must have missed it. Time-stamp?
@@amyfalconer1660 22:12
So... did he not go to jail in the movie? I'm only 20 minutes in when he wakes up at the hospital, but why isn't he waking up to see he's been handcuffed to the bed?
Because that would be way too close to real-life for Sorbo.
I had a weird idea once for a "Yes Virginia" fic (Hercules fans will know what that is) where Zeus talks Kevin Sorbo into going to Heaven to convince Anthony Quinn into coming back to reprise his role one more time in the Percy Jackson movie. It turns out Quinn went to VIP Heaven and St. Peter tells Sorbo he can't go there because it's only for actors. Sorbo says "But I am an actor!" Peter says "I mean real actors. The kind who have been in films." Sorbo says "I was in Meet the Spartans!" Peter tells him "Oh. You're going to VIP Hell for that." Turns out VIP Hell isn't so bad. He meets Ed Wood and finds the only bad things about VIP Hell is the only water available is tap water and room service is slow, mainly because Torgo is the waiter. (But he has his theme music so you know when he's coming.)
LArgE sAUsAGE and MUShrooms with tHIN CrUST?
It would be a miracle if the "baby girl" kid didn't grow up to wear someone's face...
What is the baby girl thing? It was so confusing
There's a sad universe somewhere in the multiverse, where Kevin Sorbo was the alcoholic they chose to play iron Man.
Funny story, the Sorbs is a major reason I stopped believing. I has already pretty big into mythology and Hercules put it into hyperdrive enough to were I started to realize that what those believers had as much evidence to believe as anyone else.
What if both are true?
One of the multiple personages that get addressed as "Satan" (Adversary) in the Bible is Zeus in the NT (narratively speaking, it's right after a previous Satan was defeated at the Cross so God and His people are ready to move on to fighting the next Satan), making Zeus a rival sky daddy instead of the Judeo-Christian Sky Daddy (who hates rivals), and the Bible overlaps with the Greco-Roman beliefs at times, so Greco-Roman stories such as Sorbo's Hercules were very popular with staunch Christians back then who saw the stories of Zeus and Poseidon as more compatible with their beliefs than that pesky weird Pokeyman with its religion of Evolutionism being taught by mouse demons, especially since Roman Catholicism had long adhered to Romanticism, keeping the Roman gods and stories alive as a cultural inheritance and using them allegorically to teach Christianity, sometimes culturally conflating the two in Western civilization.
Pokeyman? Mouse demons? What are you talking about?
@@MinscFromBaldursGate92 th-cam.com/video/AdB1lbjDcoU/w-d-xo.html
I giggled at Sorbs
Sorbo's kid: "How do you know its real?"
Sorbo: "Because it is."
Sums up their argument here: o
The ironic part about this film is that it doesn't even look like an actual attempt at a movie. It looks more like a PARODY of Christian movies and tropes.
Domenico Long so true! I just left a similar comment
NYG make me cry oh yeach exist it call fucking Jesus bros
Poe's law always applies.
Really though the dialog in this is so bad you can't help but wonder...
Jesus Bro!
Also, don't think that I didn't notice that the person of colour atheist was redeemable but the gay atheist was not..what statement are you trying to make, movie?!
He's not gay. He's coded gay.
Ms Maria that guy was coded so hard he might as well have had his dialogue written in C++.
@@msmaria5039 Coded gay is all it takes to sell duck whistles, and Christian movies are infamous for tending to do the bare minimum.
Racism in Murica has been out of fashion since the 1960's so we must pretend to like black people in our Fox propaganda flicks.
That Chick Fil E advert in the middle of the movie was about as subtle as "Popeyes chicken is the SHIZNIT!"
I spent my weekend meeting two of the original Power Rangers, but I guess I could do with more 90s TV stars.
Was it JDF? Lou Ferrigno and JDF are my favorite celebs I've met yet.
It was Austin St. John and Walter Jones, better known as Jason and Zack.
Oddly enough, Kevin Sorbo almost didnt play Hercules in the 1990s. They had asked another actor, but he declined.
mldfry
I know! I actually got to fistbump the Black Ranger! Should you ever meet them (and you might; they love going to Cons), you'll be happy to know that they're practically their characters IRL.
David Bauler
That happens sometimes. Like how R. Lee Ermey was simply going to MENTOR the guy who played Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Full Metal Jacket, or how John Travolta was asked to play Forrest Gump but declined.
Every time I see Kevin Sorbo I get amused, because I remember that my mother once was in the same class as his wife. Small world
Ask you mom if she was called Sandy then, or if she, for some unknown reason, changed her name to Sam.
According to this movie, the afterlife is a spinning vomit tube filled with visions of your most upsetting memories, where you see facsimiles of your lost loved ones taunting you that you can't be with them. There's a term for that, and it ain't "heaven."
This movie is basically Jesus Bro but it is not meant to be a comedy
....so the main character has people die everytime he's christian? Maybe hes converting to the wrong religion?
Damn, this deserves a lot more upvotes!
Maybe he should try being Jewish
Very insightful
Nah, it's clearing up more living space for the elephants. 😂
Gods not dead 3 coming up....can't wait...
Lady Wanderer+ it's decent, but only in comparison to the other dumpster fires created by pureflix.
I heard this time the Atheist character is actually a nuanced human being instead of a mustache twirling sociopath.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Make it stop!
The atheist character isn't a two-dimensional cardboard character? Impossible...
Damn, that's disappointing. How are we supposed to make fun of it?
When I heard Sorbo was making a hannity movie I was hoping it’d be Sorbo playing Hannity in a ‘persecuted’ style action movie
Hannity: what right do you have to impose your religion on others
Sorbo: what right does ISIS have to cut people’s heads off
Me: umm NONE
It's the kind of thing I would have a hard time to answer, not because it's hard to counter argue, but because I would be to dumbfounded to even be able to respond to such an idiotic and obviously misleading comment.
10:30 Meanwhile, if he was using something "as intensely personal" as their kid's death to manipulate people into joining her book club, she'd treat it as virtuous.
Really Sorbo. Again. AGAIN! At least in God's Not Dead you waited until the end of the film to do your Misotheist reveal! Here, first 5 minutes and you've already erased your credibility because it isn't Theism vs. Atheism. , it's Theism vs Misotheism. And then he 'dies' in a car crash. Is this just an alternate script of God's not dead? I might be less indignant of the film if it did argue Misotheism and Theism since God's done some... cruel things in that book. But no just the evil 'atheist' vs the poor kindly theist in their comedy ske- I mean Debate
Shows the lack of creativity among Christian creationists...
@WOMANpukumaru Agreed, although I still think that the creationists should show more creativity in coming up with legitimate-sounding reasons for a literal interpretation of the Genesis accounts of creation.
Good point.
The intro to this movie is really... ambitious? Showing actual footage of terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers and the Boston Marathon can be really triggering for some people :-(
I mean, I'm sorry to be personal about this; but having someone very important to Me die of cancer in real life makes this movie a touch more insulting? I mean, any story that wants to say something about death needs nuance and tact, but this is doing it specifically to pander/play to emotion.
I dunno, I'm just bitching.
I am sorry for your loss and this movie.
Just read some reviews on IMDB and they are as polarized as you might expect.
10/10
-"I'm sorry so many are so critical of this film or found it corny or preachy but, I guess, only Christians will understand. [...] Sorry so many are offended by these ideas."
There's a lot of that.
It’s time for me to be ‘that guy’ but at around 28 minutes “Connor and me” is the correct way to structure the sentence. The correction to “Connor and I” is wrong...
I’m really sorry for being that guy.
Bryn Walker lol. I noticed that too.
Thank you for being that guy. You saved me from being that guy.
I'm sad I missed this comment because I posted the same thing about an hour after you. I could've avoided redundancy.
I think they might have been joking about parents that correct their kids while being terribly mistaken themselves, though.
I'm rereading the comments and seeing how folks other than you are commenting this same thing. This seems to be a pet peeve for so many if they are choosing to add redundant comments.
I hate how actors I once admired ended up as sputtering wingnuts. First Chuck Norris, then Kevin Sorbo. =\
Mel Gibson
Wait a minute, this isn’t my childhood... DISAPPOINTEEEEEEEEEED!
Turns out James Wood was less evil when he was playing a Disney villain.
Well if you ever watched Invasion U.S.A (1985) Chuckles isn’t really playing a character in that comedy.
Kirk Cameron
So, Dionne Warwick is a card-carrying Evangelical now? The last we heard from her was as a "Psychic Friends" hotline spokesperson.
The idea of someone being an atheist having a near death experience and converting to Christianity is not completely unheard of. There’s a really famous example of a man named Howard Storm who it happened too. I’m not saying he’s right or wrong in his belief because I believe there’s no way to know for sure if god exists or not but near-death conversions do happen.
This is what the "atheist" character pretty much always is in these movies. It's because even just giving an accurate representation of an atheist wouldn't serve the purpose of validating their audience's preconceived notions. The movies are just meant to make their particular brand of Christian feel good about themselves.
I never believed in deities, and I just see it as a meaningless non-explanation. If I see you with a cake, I ask you where it came from, and you say that Bob made it, that implies there is a person (Bob) who I can ask about how to make the cake. If I ask how the universe came to be and you say that God did it, what good does that do me? Can I have a chat about physics with Yahweh? No. It's just useless to my understanding of the universe, so it's a meaningless non-explanation. And that doesn't even bring in the problem of my trying to understand what a non-physical entity is and how it can interact with physical reality.
What's the chance that they ever put an ignostic atheist in one of their films?
VeganVorarephile
No way it's logic. You're angry at God. For some unexplained reason that my tiny theistic brain can't comprehend. But come and get brainwashed at my specific franchise erm I mean religion and church and shit.
That would be interesting
So a man's family members are just fodder for god to test their loyalty. That's nice, movie.
I mean...isn't that literally what happened in Job?
And it's what Jesus said in Luke 14: 26 "“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple."
Such a refreshing change from the message in the Sermon on the Mount....
@@sbushido5547 I was gonna say, God just straight-up murders Job's entire family to prove a point (that point being "I'm GOD and I can do whatever I want")
Rewatching all of these as I'm trying to relieve my anxiety with something funny. Since the pandemic my dreams have become crazy. I've had more complex dreams than Kevin Sorbo's vision.
i love how the christian lady is super serious about organizing a widespread christian event, so rather than feeding the homeless or anything she just gets everyone to download an app and stand outside for a bit lol
she even goes on Sean Hannity to talk about how important it is to feed the hungry! But not like, federal spending for SNAP or anything like that, we wouldn't want to burden the job creators
wtf an hour long review, okay, you have my interest.
Quick! Everyone download this before it gets taken down again!
17:06 Wow heaven really needs to get a better interior decorator. I wonder who thought the right design scheme for heaven was if Charlie Kaufman designed a county fair ride.
Anyone else watching this after seeing Sorbo and Hannity in complete denial about Trump losing the election?
Not even suprised to hear this. Kaitlyn Bennett literally said she wanted the guy to become a facist dictator, so honestly this is just expected from the fundementalist Christian right at this point, lol.
"Oh my god, she's actually retarded." I busted out laughing in the middle of work!
Like I said in the original video, I saw the title and thumbnail, I smile. I see the length of the video, I laugh and say "Oh, this is gonna be *good* !"
meatballguy1 Sorbo's smug face in the thumbnail hooked me instantly.
3:57 Paul was called Saul before his conversion. I was surprised you guys didn´t catch that.
How can Kevin Sorbo be an atheist when he was a DEMIGOD!?!?
He can play anything! 😎
@@autobotstarscream765 Kevin Sorbo ya done it again!
You would make a terrible alcoholic Jake, that was a weak sip of whiskey. ;)
Tsar239 I was thinking the same thing. With that kind of half assed effort, he'll never end up unconscious in a dumpster in his underwear.
Let there be Sorbo!!!
Colton Eisenhart No, I’m begging you, don’t! You’ll kill us all!

This has to be the worst movie I’ve ever seen... how utterly awful it is ineffable. This review on the other hand... fucking godlike (pun observed). One of my favourite TH-cam videos of all time now, can’t hit the like button enough. Thank you guys for this treasure.
That surf ninja movie looks fun AF
Robby Carr Nostalgia Critic did a great review on Surf Ninjas, talking about It like it's a great masterpiece when in reality he was having a bad dream.
28:00 Actually, he's correct. "He uses Connor and me..." is grammatically correct.
MistuhWhite I said the same thing but I couldn't tell if they were being serious or not. They might have been joking about inept/ stupid parents.
If you've ever fallen asleep, then you've experienced what a near death experience feels like, at least in my experience which was a particularly close call
I AM an atheist but when bad things happen, you DO question the existence of God.. When you see people dying, you realise that if God existed, it could not have happened
That makes no sense. This is not a very well-thought out idea. A god (as in some kind of greater power) can exist, and have bad things happen; it's just that the typical Christian interpretation of God is stupid and full of holes. Maybe that's what you meant...if so, I guess my bad. In their world, nothing has to make any sense, cuz "God works in mysterious ways".
17:00 did god make him an atheist in a roundabout way to fulfill his prayer? He saw his son again like he asked because he was a drunk misotheist afterall.
29:00 That shit legitamately, unironically sent me into an anxiety attack.
@Amazing Autist
I don't blame you, that made me feel uncomfortable.
What the hell was that?
I'm only 5 minutes into your review and have already seen Kevin Sorbo up the shitiness from his last atheist portrayal.
I didn't know that was possible.
Why Sorbo had the wife character die of cancer after he went back to Christianity? It makes God look like a troll.
I've mentioned this story before but it's worth mentioning on how vivid hallucinations can be: I once woke up to a huge black dog staring down to me with sad eyes, completely pinning me down to the bed, only to blink and have it disappear and my limbs regain function. I was paranoid *for years* that something supernatural had happened to me...until I learned what Sleep Paralysis was.
Or on another note, that Penn and Teller demonstrated we can reproduce near-death experiences dependably using a centrifuge, tracking exactly what's happening as the blood drains out of your brain and you pass out. It begs the question why we _ever_ considered listening to people who were suffering brain damage. It's like trusting the testimony of the crack addict that there are in fact demon spiders crawling under his skin.
I guess when people tried to explain to Hercules why people don’t believe in god he decided to ignore them.
1) He thinks evidence is as irrelevant to non believers as him
2) He thinks “I don’t know” is as horrifying to non believers as it is to him.
27:51 Well, Jake ACKTHUALLY it is "Connor and me" in this case and you can tell by taking the other person out of the sentence. So, here, you would say, "He uses me" and not, "He uses I". That's why it's "He uses Connor and me" despite that sounding slightly wrong on first hearing. JAKE.
the second I started watching this I got a news notification saying Trump's personal lawyer 3rd mystery client was revealed to be Sean Hannity
If any Christians are reading the comments here, I'd like to ask them a question. The scene where Sorbo goes to visit the con turned pastor...why does the pastor believe Sorbo's character when he says he saw his son?
I understand that in a Christian mindset, your loved ones still do exist and it is possible to see them, and that a NDE isn't just a hallucination or the mind playing tricks on itself.
How is it the pastor knows, when this guy comes up out of the blue (were the two characters familiar with each other beforehand?) saying he was in a car crash and he saw his dead son...that Sorbo's character *did* see his real dead son?
As much as this movie portrays strawmen atheists, I have to say that here it really does a disservice to Christians. In this scene, it portrays you as gullible as all fuck.
But fundamentalist and evangelical Christians ARE gullible as all fuck.
It's the same reason why Sorbo himself doesn't consider it might have been dream; the same reason why his wife does not consider it either. GOD GONE DONE IT.
That's kind of the point though ain't it? You have to be gullible as fuck to buy into any of that shit. Or just plain lying to yourselves.
1 hour long review. You guys know how to make a man Happy.
I know the mullet is out of style but goddamn I am jealous of how glorious Billy Ray's mullet is.
Kevin Sorbo actually took acting lessons from Chuck Norris. That is a fact. Check his FB-page.
That explains a lot.
I didn't understand why Jake wanted spaghettio's until the spaghetti montage. "Hey self, the pastor is italian, moron"
You picked the BEST moment to put in "Our God Is an Awesome God".
Daaahliiiingss thank you for suffering through this. Your commentary was hilarious as always.
I remember this was the video I watched after my first metal concert to drown out the ringing in my ears. That was a fun time. Thanks for being a part of one of my favorite memories, guys.
Hugo's laugh just paid off my mortgage and raised my child. It's amazing. 💖
Let there be Jesus Bro
Damn that was good...
You mean the title was originally supposed to read "let there be lies" but it was too honest for Heinity?
I lol'd at the full set of teath burn.
I laughed throughout, but I totally cracked up at the third ISIS reference.
XD
(waves to the nice agent reading this post)
The guy who played pastor vinney is a wise guy. His name is Michael Franzese and he was a capo in the Columbia family and his dad was the underboss of the family. Michael spent years in prison as well and now is a motivational speaker
you have no idea what a long hard kick in the ass my night has been. This really helped. thank you, thank you, thank you. much love.
I'm an atheist who's never lost a child or a nice mommy (Best I had was a grandmother that didn't hit as hard as my grandfather and I blame her 2 pack a day habit for her death) and I've been on the slab twice and saw jack.
Who's Jack?
@@msmaria5039 The personification of nothingness. Nobody's quite sure what his last name is, though I have heard Squat and All as suggestions
@@aaronodonoghue1791 I’ve also heard “Diddley,” “Diddley-squat,” and the rare suggestion of “shit”
The joke about DMCAs is now funnier because that's what happened!
29:30 That is literally the most terrifying thing I have ever seen in my entire life.
18:14 "I don't feel so good."
"I don't wanna go!"
