Guys... Censoring a Word on a video, isnt about "monetization".. As Videos That are copyrighted DO NOT MAKE MONEY for the Channel (All ads that you see are paying the artist or label) . Its purely about not killing that channels overall reach. Certain Words and subjects on youtube are Channel Death unless your content is solely based on that exact type of content.
As UA-camrs we all have to follow community Guidelines or UA-cam limits the channel growth. Some choose to follow the rules and youtube will continue to recommend channel and other videos on the channel to other people... and some choose to constantly break the rules and have their growth limited (Meaning Channels that have been on youtube for Years and are stuck at 50k).
That's perfectly find L...makes perfect sense
That sucks. and I don't mean you suck, I mean UA-cam and other social-media platform's power over what has become the de facto new 'Public Square'
Bo Burnham touches on this, particularly 'How the World Works'. Sure there's the blatant text, but the subtext is you (Socko, General Public) can say Anything you could ever possibly want on The Platform (Bo's hand, Social Media) Except directly challenge the platform itself. The Platform can and will re-contextualize You to suit it's own ends and if you interfere with that, woe betide you.
You should try Art is dead by Bo at some point. Brill video and insight!
Yeah man. You're trying to grow, so the censorship makes sense. Some channels aren't concerned about that, so they leave it. Both options make sense, I'm glad you spelled it out for us though
You're the only reactor I've seen butcher the song like this, though.
"No one's entertained the thought that maybe God does not believe in you" still gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it. Bars.
"-- and I don't watch you when you sleep, surprisingly I don't use my omnipotence to be a fuckin.. creep" - such a beautiful line. It really is incredibly egotistical of humanity to believe that god created all of it us for us and in his infinite wisdom is prying and snooping on us. Really shows the absurdity of the concepts.
Besides, isn’t that Santa Clause’s job to watch us while we sleep? 🤣🤣🤣
@@Jamie-ft5rw they're the same person lol
well Omnipotence doesn't mean he is prying into peoples lives, it means he know and sees all simultaneously.
@@ALLDAY-tt9qw You missed the point entirely. I'm saying it is absurd and egotistical to believe that the way this universe came to be is that a God created it for us, and with his infinite wisdom and power snoops on us and doesn't want us to masturbate.
While being an admittedly reductionist take, this is what many religious people believe.
@@rumq9305 still sounds creepy af.
I don’t think you’ve reacted to this one, but Bo has a song called Art Is Dead, definitely check it out
One of my favorites!
Pleeeaaaseeee do
Great song youd love it
I love the song. I love the message. I love that line: "I'm not gonna give you love just cuz that I know that you want me to. If you want love, then the love has gotta come from you." It's another beautiful way to say: treat others the way you would want to be treated. I love the reaction and the conversation. Thank you.
But also, love that YOU feel comes from you not another person. We tell ourselves it does, but its not true. Sure, someone else may inspire that feeling in you, but the thing to learn from that is that feeling of love that you feel is inside you not being beamed into you from the outside. They aren't the source of you feeling love, YOU are. I think he might also have been alluding to this.
@@michaelrudolph7003 Truth. Others can express their feelings for you, but the feeling of love is something only the individual can feel for themselves.
my favorite is “my love’s the type of thing you have to earn, and when you earn it, you won’t _need_ it.” in a way, “god” is really just our collective consciousness. if you feel you have to be complacent to a higher power to be a good person, you’re never going to feel that love. if you love yourself, and those around you, you won’t need “his” love, because you already have it. such a beautiful line
@@hurricanejaney That's the most powerful line of the song, in my opinion. That's some great analysis you gave, thanks for sharing!
i grew up into Christianity and i was thought "do onto others as you want them to do onto you" so basically treat others the way you want to be treated.
i still live by that value (mostly) even though I don't consider myself Christian anymore. i think it is a very important value to have.
although my view has shifted into i treat others as they treat me. if people are nice i will be nice back, if they aren't then i also will not be. thankfully most people respond well to kindness, so I hardly have issues with people
Bo's rap "RANT" is another on religion which is also a great.
Definitely need to react to that one next. The word play is phenomenal
Not to be confused with the Kanye West Rant.
Underrated and glorious
Bo makes some genuinely beautiful sounding songs and while it's full of jokes, I think this is still one of his best. He has so many good takes and I think this is one that a lot of people, especially religious people, could learn a lot from. He and I are the same age and I was lucky enough to catch his first special in 2008 when it aired, we were only 18 then. Easily one of my favorite comedians and also musicians, I'm happy that he has kind of blown up with Inside. Dude definitely deserves it!
This is one of my favorites of his. I'm a religious person and really love a lot of the points he brings up in here, especially the ending of the love having to come from each individual. 💖 How can someone expect to receive an unconditional love if they're not willing to give it as well.
@@Laylia_ Wish I could send this to my family, but they would lose their freaking minds and probably instantly kick me from the group chat. No way they would even get close to listening to 10 seconds of it.
I’m atheist but
5:41 “maybe God doesn’t in you” terrified me
and
6:30 “My love is the type of thing you have to earn and when you earn it, you won’t need it” is beautiful to me
Perhaps you realized that "God" is just consciousness and perhaps it really means that we have to believe in ourselves.
Sounds more like you are agnostic.
@Garrett Yep, on the daily too. Not just understanding you create your reality sometimes.
I was raised extreamly religious, and whilst I do still believe in God, and Jesus etc, I also agree with just about everything in this song. Much to my mothers chagrin. XD
I've been waiting on this since the first Bo song so glad to see it was one of your favs.
I love that even though he is clearly a fellow Atheist and he pokes a smidge of fun in the song and fires a shot or two, in the end he takes the concept seriously and respectfully, really giving thought to the 'what if' of the scenario. Truly one of his best.
Not disagreeing with you, but for the record, there are many other ideologies and belief structures that fall under the non theist or secular umbrella.
@@sunshynff Well if you are non-theist or secular by way of not believing in a god or gods, then you are by definition Atheist whether you like it or not.
@DeltaBlaZe77 ...Well first off, this has nothing to do with whether I like it or not, my pleasure or displeasure, or being content or bothered by my personal beliefs aligning with a label that society has chose would be of my own making. I say that because you seem to be inferring that I am somehow avoiding the moniker of atheism. I do understand why you could think that, many people, especially those that have been indoctrinated their whole life to a specific religion, and are in the process of breaking those chains of dogma, and maybe are intimidated to throw the whole of their ideologies and beliefs out the window in one instance, or because of the stigma the word can often come with in certain communities, avoiding the label of atheism as much as possible. I am neither, and have no issues with the word atheism or it's characterization at all.
Maybe the words mean something different to you or we learned them differently, but to me Secularism is an umbrella term, used mostly by government leaders, or a society at large, to denote those people that are not spiritual, don't practice a religion, don't attend services, do not have any particular feelings or spend time worrying about a god, where we came from, or an afterlife. Whether or not they truly believe there is a creator or deity is not the issue as much as how they live their life in a societal aspect. Non-theism is similar, then atheism falls under non-theism but also can have sub categories, here's a few examples...
Ignosticism or igtheism is the idea that the question of the existence of god is meaningless because the word "god" has no coherent and unambiguous definition.
ietsism is an unspecified belief in an undetermined transcendent reality.
Pantheism is the belief that reality, the universe and the cosmos is identical with divinity and a supreme supernatural being or entity, pointing to the universe as being an immanent creator deity still expanding and creating, which has existed since the beginning of time (This belief structure was made popular by Baruch Spinoza 17th century philosopher, with a spinoff called Spinozism to which Albert Einstein in his later yeas stated if he had to be associated with any belief structures after his death he would like it to be Spinozism)
Then the moniker I feel describes my beliefs most accurately, Agnosticism, which is the view or belief that the existence of a god, of the divine or the supernatural is unknown or unknowable. Another definition I've recently seen is....human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify either the belief that god exists or the belief that god does not exist.
Both those definitions of Agnosticism are word for word out of a dictionary and the other a secular publication, to individualize it for be further, I believe that the strait atheist belief, is slightly conceited, and I don't mean the people holding that belief are conceited at all, just the concept. The tiny bit of science compared to a universe full of questions, that the human brain has acquired thus far, and anyone with even a rudimentary education and the ability to use google, can see how absolutely massive and mind boggling vast our universe is, and realize that our species will have to be around hundreds of thousands of more years to come close to answering half the questions we know to ask right now.
So to be so sure, so absolute in ones conviction, as to say they know for sure that there is nothing out there that created us, or started the ball of life rolling, has a bit of conceit at it's core, at least in my book. I absolutely don't believe in any of the nonsense from humans that have tried to explain their god to me, or pass as religion today. A supreme being could be nothing more than another life form outside our viewable universe, that is light years ahead of our existence and simply quantum leaps ahead of our intelligence. It could be an unimaginable species all together with 100 brains each smarter than our largest super computer, it could be an actual spiritual omnipotent creature, or the atheist could be right and we're just another living organism that sprung up on this rock floating through space, and hit the interstellar evolutionary jackpot and our species grew the right appendages settled with just the right amount of chromosomes, developed object permanence, and next thing ya know, bam! Hunter gatherers, civilizations, technology, massive religions, wars, porn, and a little phone computer thing we carry in our pockets, that is capable of telling you the sum of all human knowledge ever obtained, but we only use it to text people and look at funny cat videos...lol.
I digress, sorry for the long diatribe, have a cold and been bored, stuck inside the last two days. Basically I believe there could be something bigger and smarter than us out there, or we could just be worm food when we die, and our molecules return the universe after we decompose, but until there is definitive proof either way, I'm gonna try and not pay it too much mind, treat my fellow jackpot winners with respect by always offering a hand up and never kicking down, and live my short amazing life to the fullest while I still can.
✌️💚
@@sunshynff Literally not one word of all of that changed my point. They are atheists if they do not believe in a god or gods because the word atheist has a simple definition. I did not speak to any other aspect of their knowledge or beliefs or persons in any way, nor do I have any interest to. The definition is the definition, and it doesn't matter what they think, feel, believe, want, dream, or hope, none of it, not a thing matters. Clearly, you know Gnosticism deals with the question of knowledge, I didn't speak to that, I simply put if they don't believe in a god or gods they are an atheist, they don't have to claim to be, but they are nonetheless. They can be an atheist and be a number of other things at the same time, they cannot be an atheist and believe in a higher power because then they wouldn't be an atheist anymore. Language is the only clever thing we monkeys have ever managed, and it is only useful so long as it is able to facilitate communication, and if we do not agree on definitions then we cease to be able to communicate. We can change definitions, but then someone has to make a good argument as to why, and there is no good argument to change atheism. If the argument is the existence of a stigmatism surrounding the word , then that is nonsense and a lack of understanding how language works, you change the word you just move the goal post and the new word will become the stigmatized word, rinse and repeat. The axioms I've been able to best reason out so far for myself are, fight against cruelty, the truth matters, and language is paramount and particular, it is important the words we use, and we shouldn't change them flippantly, because we risk losing meaning of words, and when we lose the meaning then others can change the meaning, and that is how every horrific thing that has ever happened in human history has been allowed to happen.
@@deltablaze77 ...Very well stated, I have to admit though, I wasn't sure where you headed right off the bat, but I understand now and very much agree, especially the times we live in. If two factions are ever going to work out differences, find middle ground and minimize or avoid violence and cruelty, a sound foundation of what things mean and what is and isn't reality, that both sides agree on, is paramount.
I honestly wasn't trying to change you point, nor was I trying to prove you wrong or win a debate, I simply was just stating that I've always looked at atheism as an umbrella term. I wrote a lot of content, partly because, like I said, been stuck at home with a flu bug, but also I've heard some different thoughts about the word itself, and others that think it's not an umbrella term, and it's very definitive like you stated. It was all in the spirit of a mind exercise and free thinking discussion, just to get that out of the way, I meant no harm or disrespect.
So yes I see where you're coming from with either you don't believe in a deity or higher power, or you do, the prefix "a" in atheism literally meaning "without" or "not", and something that theists always seem to miss when trying to tell me what they think atheism is. They always trip up by relating to a belief system, and you have to remind them that there's not dogma, or ritualistic tendencies, it's simply the lack of belief in a higher power. So I guess my question to you is, where would pantheism or Spinozism like Einstein was a fan of, fit in? It's not a belief in the traditional omnipotent supreme creator of all, but it is the belief that the universe as a whole, and it's unfathomable size and mysteries, are respected as deity like presence, yet not to be worshipped or prayed to either. Pantheism is fairly new to me, and only read a little bit about it, so that example may not be the best representation.
Also where would agnostic fall for you? As an agnostic I've been asked if I chose that because I was raised a Christian, and I still wanted to keep one foot in the door, in case I "changed my mind" or if my family were mad and they couldn't handle the word atheist. I've always told those people, for what they view as an atheist, then they mine as well consider me an atheist and that I have no issues with that, because I knew I didn't believe in a Christian-Judeo god as they did. People always seem so surprised when I tell them my family is devout Catholics yet aren't mad at me. Maybe I lucked out, but by the time I hit about 15, my parents made it clear to my sister and I, that they wanted us to follow our own path in life, including religious and political beliefs. They only asked that we'd try to represent the basic tenants they brought us by like integrity, honest hard work, truthfulness, etc.. My sister stayed with the church, and my parents are both still Catholics, but not one of them has ever questioned or made me feel bad for choosing a different path.
I'm not looking for approval of agnosticism, but since I don't believe, at this time, that there is any sort super natural supreme being that created us and looks over us. Nor do I believe that there is any sort of deity in any way shape or form that we are like or that made us in his image, or is any type of earthly conglomeration.
But I haven't ruled it out either, I mean it would have to be pretty solid evidence, don't get me wrong. But what I could believe easier, with proof, is that an advanced civilization created us, some sort of entity that we can't even wrap our head around with our primitive primate brains pooped us out. I just don't know, at the same time, I believe there's the same chance that we are just worm food, and that's it, you're born, live a little, then die. So since I lack any specific belief in the existence of a deity would that still then by default atheism?? Because I've heard people get into debates on what is considers a deity or god, in order to determine ones belief in it's existence. Again, just thinking out loud, philosophically, not trying to change any meanings or minds, just curious how you look at that aspect.
Just to let you know, Bo grew up going to an all male Catholic school
Quote from Bo from the H3H3 podcast - Bo Burnham: "I'm more into the idea of religion than I was as a cool-ass 19 year old atheist" this was from 2018
Bo is one of those artists that clearly sees the line between Genius and Crazy and uses it as a jump rope. Peace/JT
OH MAN. As soon as you said the words, "This has to be his most out there thing." I just had to interject LMAO. This is actually very tame compared to teenage Bo's work. If you're ever curious and want to see him dig even deeper, I'd suggest checking out "Sunday School." Even if it's just on your own personal down time. Take a gander lmao
yup nowhere near
This song is just straight HEAT. Gonna have to put in a request for 'Left Brain, Right Brain", from the same special. Love the content, keep up the great work!
This was the song that introduced me to Bo a few years ago. It’s from his show “what.” Which is utterly genius. You should check out the final song “We think we know you”
A good chunk of Levitical law appears to be aimed at the prevention of disease, at least as far as my own interpretation of that part of the Bible. I believe the restriction on pork had to do with the fact that pigs were basically fed garbage and carried diseases that they did not have the ability to mitigate. Shellfish are also forbidden, which makes sense to me, because many of those are scavengers and ocean filters, and it's also a common allergy, so perhaps that contributed to it.
My thoughts exactly
Except its written in a book that is the supposed imbued word of God, which means it is all 100% true and infallible. So you attempting to explain away as trivial and unnecessary in today's age because we have technology and understanding that make previously unsafe things now safe to eat is to say the Bible is filled with things that may or may not be true based on the time and place. This invalidates the entire Bible or means God made a mistake, which by rule he can't, and thus also destroys God, or the Bible is complete trash and not the word of God at all, at which point, what is the religion of Christianity based on exactly? It's a terrible logical slope for anyone who believes it and that's one of a thousand great arguments that none of it is based on Truth.
I think so, those dietary laws were useful back in the day but no longer apply. Priests saying it was God's will was probably the only way they could get people to follow them. How about, it is God's will that you stay home if you are sick.
@@michaelrudolph7003 I don't agree that the Bible is complete trash, even though I am not in the least religious. I take the Bible for what it is: mythology, stories, moral instruction for the young, poetry, and how a mid-eastern desert tribe viewed their universe. Parts are good literature.
@@LynnaeaEmber That is actually part of Leviticus. When one has a disease, you are supposed to stay outside the camp and cover the lower part of your face and tell people you are sick.
It’s like you read my mind man. I just went on an old bo binge this week, and was listening to this song last night before I fell asleep. Thanks for reacting to awesome material
I am extremely religious and i absolutely love this song.
This might be my fav Bo song. It hits nerves and is brilliant and is ended in a good positive way. Keep it coming man
Dude I even love the beginning. "What" the whole special can be a little bit overwhelming and I think it has some really low points, but this one is amazin!
Glad you’re going back with Bo. His whole special “What” is amazing, especially as young as he was. Love all these, man. I’d still love to see you introducing someone to “How The World Works”. Haha
YES! “How The World Works”
He already reacted to "How the World Works"
ua-cam.com/video/wqXcQVx-z8g/v-deo.html
@@CraigKostelecky I know, but he mentioned wanting to show it to someone else. That would be hilarious.
This is probably one of my favorite songs by him. Straight bars.
Great reaction… Agreed… It’s a tough conversations are the conversations that we need to go into. How can you have deep understanding with someone if you refuse to talk about the tough topics. Great job keep it up
Bo is a brilliant writer/performer/comedian. This song is one of my favorites. The line "maybe God does not believe in you..." OOF.
Also, when you said that *r* is..."intrusive"? 😂😂💀💀
Always love your videos. Keep em coming!
my dude, you always make day with your videos when I'm having the worst. thank you for doing what you do.
Your Patreon is impressive. This "song" is one of my favorites. It reminds me of Carlin, satire can be the most effective tool of showing perspectives and Bo is incredibly intelligent to be able to digest these concepts into such simple songs.
from my limited understanding of things I learned a while ago I think the Pork thing was back then Pigs were seen as unclean and the fact that aside from Chicken was one of the few meats that when cooked improperly, and even back then properly cooked if I recall, would still commonly make people sick.
I think that was the start of the no pork thing in Judaism but not 100% on that. I know it had something to do with the times and unclean and so I think it had to do with improper cooking `shrug`
I've listened to this so many times and only just now clicked to the meaning of the "my love I'd the type of thing you have to earn, and when you earn it, you won't need it" following the proposal of making earth heavenly earning the love to get into heaven that you wouldn't need because you had already made earth into heaven....
Weird I was just binging your Bo Burnham videos 2 hours ago. I left YT to watch a show and upon return I'm greeted with the exact video I was hoping you'd release next. Thank you!
I hope you'll do 'Art is Dead' by Bo sometime in the future. He describes it as "Not funny at all, but it helps me sleep at night"
Classic. He always makes you think.
I agree. Grape is quite intrusive
Glad to see you finally do this song one of my favorites. Can't wait to see your reaction on Rant.
Ty for reacting to this song, regardless of its potential of demonetization. I don't care that you censored it at all; I'm just so glad you got to this song! It's one that keeps you grounded, regardless of what your beliefs are.
Absolutely need to do more Bo!!
I hardly watch people reacting to the other content but I really like how articulate your voice is, did you ever take vocal lessons? Sorry new sub here
A song in the same vein as this one is his performance of “Rant” (which is not the same as the Kanye rant) it’s written about his experience of growing up in the Catholic church
Extremely religious person here! 🙋♀️ And I actually quite enjoy this song. Obviously I take issue with some of the theology 😄 but he has some really beautiful ideas and very clever lines that I appreciate.
Ironically, the line I have the biggest problem with theologically isn't any of the "controversial" ones. It's the one about "My love's the type of thing that you have to earn," because that's actually the exact opposite of what the Bible teaches. The whole point of the Gospel is that we are incapable of earning God's love (because let's face it, we all suck), but that God doesn't expect us to. That's literally the whole point of Jesus.
But Bo's line about "Maybe life on Earth could be Heaven"...yeah. He's spot on. I think way too many Christians spend their time thinking about what comes after this life, that they forget that part of the mission Jesus gave us was to build God's Kingdom here on Earth. And if Bo helps people remember that, then I'm all for it! Loved the reaction! Hope you decide to do more Bo!
I understand that you honestly enjoy Bo, and aren't trying to dump on non theist, but you did come to the comment section to tell us what line you had the biggest problem with, and telling us the reason, (proof/evidence) you have to support the notion that the line Bo used is wrong, or the opposite of his words, by using the very book we explicitly don't believe in as a source to validate your statement.
Keep being you as you see we keep showing up and love your content... your demeanor shows you want positivity. So the thumbs down 👎 are people that don't want to listen... even for a moment to something they have a minor problem with. Oh..."he thinks he can speak for god" well we can speak our opinions and he is a comedian too soooo...... maybe he is trying to share his experience and aim for a funny way. Or relatable I guess....
The pork thing has a dual thing. The one I'm less sure/more confused about is a rule against eating any "cloven-hoofed" animal, and it's supposedly tied to depictions of the devil as being goat-legged? The more reasonable one is that there are certain organisms (I think parasites, but might be a bacteria) that can often be found in pig meat but rarely (if ever?) in other animal meat, and they take pretty intense heat to kill off. The number of people getting sick and dying after eating pig is figured to have been significant enough for the correlation to be made, and thus pigs were deemed "unclean" which also went on to mean "sinful to eat." Tons of the things labelled as "sins" were actually things that they saw problems arise from (aside from those that we still recognize as clear moral problems), but some of those problems are things we figured out a way to address long enough ago that those rules just seem totally bizarre now.
Love this song. Thanks for covering it!
This song is in my top 5 of Bo's songs
Definitely one of my favorites. Such a great intense song
this was my first bo burnham song, my favourite, and the one that got me into him.
it’s so cool seeing peoples first, my first was on his UA-cam when he posted him in his room doing “My Whole Family Thinks I’m Gay” it’s been awesome seeing his growth
Your comments at the end, preach, well said
I'll see if I can do a little explaining about not eating pork for some religions. There is still a lot of debate about this but in Leviticus, They were told not to eat of any animals that have cloven hooves and do not chew a cud. Pigs fall into this category and were seen as unclean. Now at the time, it was fairly common to eat meat tartar style, as many scholars will argue, since there was no way to preserve meat it was best to eat it as quickly as possible. We don't know if it was a commandment for this reason, but uncooked pork can have multiple parasites that do not show up in animals that chew cuds (cows, deer, sheep, goats Ect). So many think it was a commandment to keep from getting sick because they simply did not cook it properly, at the time, to kill all the parasites that were in pork.
Bo comes from a heavily religious family and this was how he felt when he started to really look at religion for himself
So glad you reacted to this one finally, one of my faves by him 👍
i'm so happy you dug this one
This is my absolute favorite bo burnham song.
Excellent reaction video. Bo Burnham is taking on a challenge, and you rose to it beautifully.
I had hoped you would react to this. Love your perspective. Respect, Mr. Boyd ✌
Hahabraha, I didn't need the lyrics but thanks for having ..just in case.
Bless you!
I donated $5 last week hoping you'd react to "We Think We Know You." Is that still possible? Thank you. I think you'll enjoy it!
I think originally shellfish and pork was seen as a no go because they eat and live in crap and are bottom feeders, and back then properly cooking either could be a challenge, especially shellfish when you are in the middle east where you are not likely to find fresh shellfish.
So it was kind of an early food safety dealio.
I’ve seen some other comments already recommend it, but I’ll do it too anyway. ‘Art is dead’ - Bo Burnham. Amazing song
Thank you for finally reacting to this! It's my favorite Bo Burnham song
that last line always gets me 😥
Bo is a genius. So talented, artistic and hilarious at the same time.
As a big fan since we were both teenagers, I'll always watch new people experiencing Bo :D
Not that it really matters, but I think Bo said he is agnostic. While you hinted early you think it’s possibly for shock, I think there’s a implied message in it. He’s not necessarily bashing belief in god, but he’s speaking as god to the believers. And whatever those believers are attributing to him can sometimes me misused or misapplied. He hits the point home with “if you want love, then the love has gotta come from you.”
My theory is that Earth is the hell planet, for lack of better term, because there is so much pain here and we only learn lessons through pain. We come here to learn whichever ones we need to, and then we move on. That's why the good die young.
Belief in the Divine and loving fully in the present and not for the hope of a pleasant afterlife can coexist.
Hi uh I’m sorry if this is weird or something but your voice is really calming and I think it would be really cool if you like started a podcast or something. I also love your videos ♥️
Left brain right brain is great! you should listen to it next. its another great conversation from the same special. great reaction as always, im glad this one of your favorites now.
Best song ever thank you for sharing
Bo was raised religiously. You need to react to Rant (not the Kanye Rant, just Rant)
Homie the abstaining from shelled sea foods was because they couldn't keep them from becoming toxic for long. It's that they get very toxic after a shorter time as bacteria live on them and not all bacteria is killed with cooking standards.
I mean even we have bacteria(cells) that don't die with soap and hot water... and they protect us.
I'm Christian, and perhaps Bo is simply trying to dunk on anyone religious, but I think you can easily read this song as a dig on people who use religion as a trend or aesthetic. Basically all religious people know others who claim to be religious themselves while living entirely contradictory to everything their supposed faith preaches. Just singing a million hymns or eating saltines at communion absolutely won't get you to heaven, and many things he points out are silly too.
Even things many Christians probably won't like are true. "The books you think I wrote" line is true; God didn't physically write the bible, and people should be aware of that. It's interpretation upon interpretation going back centuries.
I really don't think this song clashes with religion as much as it seems to on its face. Maybe that's just copium, or maybe it has a deeper message that religious people need to hear too.
Thank you! You said it perfectly. I am a Christian and this song doesn’t affend me at all. It’s one of my favorites and makes me think more about God’s love.
I agree 100%. I don't see this as athiest. I see it, honestly, as him saying maybe your God is too small. Maybe we should consider that God is much bigger than the box we put him in, and maybe we should consider that we are not the center of his universe.
Yay I hoped u did this one
This song fucking slaps. The sting is so good.
Oh Bo, is probably his wildest
This song has one of the best intros Bo has ever come up with.
If you think this is his most out there song….Little Adolf and Klan Kookout exist….and that one about love where he describes her I can’t remember the title but lmao yeah this ones not out there compared to the first two I said atleast.
So an interesting note about religions prohibiting pork and shellfish, there's a theory in parasitology that developed because in the regions where these religions originated there are common parasitic diseases that you can contract from those foods. So people may have seen others getting sick and dying from pork and shellfish and interpreted that as God telling them to not eat them.
I think the pork and shellfish and milk and meat was mainly a health thing. All of that stuff spoils fast and can kill you. And when there’s no refrigeration, that’s kind of an issue.
That said, you should also check out "Repeat Stuff" and "Left Brain Right Brain"
Oy, it's your channel to run as you like. No apologies full stop! Anyone who disagrees can start their own channel.
One of my favorites of his
Thank u so much mrlboyd!!
I love how you can still hear some of the censored words leaking through his headphones. Not hate, love your videos.
One of my favourites of his
The pork proscription actually makes sense because, in a hot dry climate, pigs require a lot of the same scarce resources humans need. Shellfish though? That's less clear.
You should watch/listen to art is dead, it’s one of his more intense and emotional songs. There is also a version of him performing it in front of a bunch of celebrities which I think you should watch after
I'm religious and I love bo Burnham also nice shirt keep up the great content!
This will probably get lost in the comments, but Bo was raised in a religious family and went to Christian schools, much like George Carlin. I don't know if Bo is straight up atheist or just has a lot of questions that his ministry couldn't answer, but he did an amazing job crafting a song that takes the piss out of religious zealots without mocking God himself. Amazing piece of songwriting, pure and simple.
Also, one of my best friends is a Christian, and I'm an atheist (we're an odd pair, yet we fit together so well lol). We've actually discussed that idea of "earth being heaven" and while she still believes in the afterlife (I've told her I'm open to the possibility, but I'm not getting my hopes up lol), we tend to agree on one thing: We may not know for sure what waits for us on the other side, but until that day comes, why not live our best lives now, while we're still here on Earth, and we'll deal with the other side when we get there?
I just remembered that randy feltface existed, and that you should react to him.
The predominant reason for the abstaining from certain foods in the OT was because they didn't have access to ways to properly cure certain foods.
In this song Bo isn't bashing religous people (not most anyway, just the extremely hardcore ones), he isn't bashing the religioun.
He is talking to people who see God as a tool to complain to and to solve their problems just because he loves people. He proposes a solution that instead of *waiting* to go to heaven withou doing anything to deserve it, *just* because God loves and forgives is stupid, instead we can try to actually be good people and do good things, make "life on earth can be heaven" true and by that point "and when you earned it, you won't, need it".
If we actually try to be good people we would have done already what God wants us to be, good and caring. we would have made heaven on Earth with our actual hard work instead of waiting for it on a silver platter.
another great one from Bo is 'Left Brain, Right Brain' from his special what
"You shouldn't rape cause rape is a fucked up thing to do"
"Right."
Had me in fucking stitches
I love reaction videos, after watching about seven of this song you are the only one who reacted to the overpopulation line in the same way I did. I would have loved to hear your thoughts. Thank you, your comments and reactions were great to watch.
He was raised being catholic. Should check out Bo Burnham- RANT . Its prob my fav lol
There was a religious/christian person that reacted to this and took it pretty well, it's all about context. He's not spouting it on the street, it's a comedy show. There's gotta be no exceptions in comedy.
"Rant" is mandatory now
YOU DID IT! Lol I knew you were going to thoroughly enjoy this 😏
I love how at first i didnt like it but at the end i understood the message he was sending. By nature humans are selfish and sinful. If we want peace it starts with every one of us
So John Lennon this song. Love Bo
Bo burnham love ballad
I love Bo. He tells it like it is just like George Carlin. Play more of him please.
I would second the recommendations others have dropped and say Rant is a great song to react to, and it sticks to the religion theme.
