"And he cleft her in twaine! And there was much wailing and knashing of teeth!" lol one of the best parts! of course besides "How the hell did you do that?"
No matter how bad you think your life, wake up each day and be thankful for what you have. Someone somewhere is fighting just to survive. God still loves you.
This cut off the very end of the bit, which goes like this: "Then did the host of the party entreat unto the Lord, saying, 'Go thou up nigh unto Jerusalem and perform for them." And when the Lord asked why, he was told, 'Because that's where the money is.' So he did go up to Jerusalem, but, alas, they were a much tougher crowd, and he was absolutely crucified."
I love the paused double take when he reaches the point where the reading departs from the actual scripture...where the preacher is trying to figure out if he remembers this properly. :D
Less rage, but more presumption. But for the sake of discussion, it perhaps is important to recognize that, while it does comfort and soothe and bring peace to many people, sure, there's not reason to think it's true. That is to say, there's no reasoning.
this is good...all you humourless fellow Christians should get a life. As a priest I think this doesn't mock the Lord, it mocks clergy...particularly of the Anglican variety...and as one of them I can only say "good thing too"!
Don't sweat it, I think they're new, and most atheists think that they find it appropiate to discuss religion just to call their opponents immature and blind.
Paul Daniels is a very popular TV magician / entertainer here in the UK. He's been around since the 1970's and is still doing the rounds ! Rowan was just making a clever joke using Paul Daniels name and Paul & Daniel as the sketch involved magic entertainment and biblical characters ! I hope that clarifies your question !!
'But the Lord said "Nay, I am but he who comes before", and they were sore amazed and said "Then Master, how shall we know the true Lord?" and Jesus said "By his name shall ye know him, and he shall have a slightly religious name, and he shall be called Paul. And Daniels shall he be called.". "Paul Daniels?" they cried. And Jesus said "Yes. Something like that". Here endeth the lesson.'
One of the most versatile comedians of all-time right here...from slapstick to monologue...just pure comedic genius!
As a devout Christian, I love this so much! I think God loves the joyful noise of our laughter.
Yes God has a great sense of humour, I think he would totally laugh!
Yeah guys awesome

And all about him knew it was so.
For it was orange, with a green top.
A man of very rare quality and very eloquent and articulate
Humour and joy will overcome human insanity... eventually.
This can never get old!

Yes just like the children with leukaemia…. Your beliefs are as myopic as they are appalling. 👍

Absolutely brilliant
Oh my god this was absolutely GENIUS!

The cure for all sadness: Rowan Atkinson
Now this is clean and funny humour - without strong words or farting - only a real comedian can achieve this.
Go Rowan!!!
Thanks @aibo, awesome video!
I'm a christian and don't believe my God is unhappy with me being happy about this!
Less rage, but more presumption.
But for the sake of discussion, it perhaps is important to recognize that, while it does comfort and soothe and bring peace to many people, sure, there's not reason to think it's true. That is to say, there's no reasoning.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Forget wedding vows I so want this said at my wedding =D
Wow what a great christian you are, God must be very proud of you that you allow yourself to find this funny. How faithfull you are..

Classis Atkinson. Reminds me of the sermon he gave in the movie "Keeping Mum."

"..and the whole crowd went, absolutely, 'bananas'. "

What does it matter if you're a Christian or an atheist? Just shut up and enjoy the video. Rowan Atkinson is brilliant :)
rowan atkinson is a genius
this is good...all you humourless fellow Christians should get a life. As a priest I think this doesn't mock the Lord, it mocks clergy...particularly of the Anglican variety...and as one of them I can only say "good thing too"!
Don't sweat it, I think they're new, and most atheists think that they find it appropiate to discuss religion just to call their opponents immature and blind.
I am quite sure there are no one in the world who can perform this joke in funnier manner than rowan atkinson.
Rowan Atkinson is hilarious!
Funniest part in my opinion - 0:34, when he says "whence". LOL Rowan Atkinson is hilarious...
This is a pick me up. Everytime things gets staid & dull I watch. By Jove it works. 😊
"This guy is really good, he should turn professional!" lol
Would love to see Rowan Atkinson and Jim Parsons on the same show/movie
And the crowd went bananas.
@InfernosNinthCircle WOW. i love it when truth lies there naked.
Rowan... we bow down to you!!!
Lighten up brother!
Are are no sinners, only those who thought they'd find Toby the devil in Hell.
