@@brittreacts you need to do my favorite Tim Minchin song “Not Perfect”. To me it has the perfect blend of comedy and meaningful serious concepts rolled into a pleasant song.
i was baptised at 14 in the Esther Southern Baptist Church in Esther, MO. Tim helped me a lot with setting down my religion. (Just my story no one else's.) He also wrote the Matilda Musical.
Tim is brilliant. He’s so good and pointing out the obvious absurdity of the “good book”. Just how silly it really all is when you say it the way it is. Love this man.
My wife and I travelled from Canada down to NYC for a two night stay in the middle of the week... SPECIFICALLY to catch Tim Minchin performing! We still agree that it's probably one of the top 5 greatest moments of our lives
Yes! Have been waiting for you to react to Tim Minchin. "Prejudice" is always my recommendation for those new to him, although "Storm" is also amazing (who doesn't love a good 9-minute beat poem?).
@@sandgroperwookiee65 the first time he reacted to it he claimed or thought that it was pushed to him because he was deeply melonated. He said he considered it a set-up. The second time he watched it on the music channel was a more normal reaction.
Exposes the circular reasoning perfectly... Ad Hoc Ergo Propter Post Hoc and Circulus in Probando is every religious argument EVER 😂 🖖🏼🇦🇺 Prejudice and Cont...inued are brilliant as well.
I'm an atheist but I really appreciate your calm and respectful approach to the questions people would have with the Bible and Christianity and I like that you can have a sense of humour about it.
The drowning of the cats is a metaphor for the flood - where god decided that people were misbehaving and the only response was to drown them all. The good book says it's good - leaving out the mechanics of how the population was built back up afterwards from only one family of survivors...
Brilliant! You don't need a book to be a good human! Tim is funny and intelligent and sure can play piano! You can be sure if Tim says it is in the book it is! Check out his Thankyou God, full version. It is along the same lines and even more amazing.
It’s 6.15 am and I’m at my granddaughters’ house waiting for the four of them to get ready for school. This was so clever and funny!! You and Tim had me laughing out loud first thing in the morning!! 😂
Tim is amazing - if you react to him again, please react to “Prejudice”, “inflatable you”, “Lullaby” or “confessions”. No attacks on religion for you - but for 3 of those songs he tackles serious subjects with great satire.
Tim Minchin ❤ Some suggestions of other songs by him to check out: Rock'n'roll Nerd Not Perfect Prejudice You Grew On Me Storm (a 9 minute beat poem) I Can Have a Dark Side White Wine In The Sun (this is the most beautiful song about Christmas ever written)
Not mine any more. I have trouble reading small fonts these days, so I've been reading e-readers for nigh on 20 years. Trouble is, none of my friends and family know about anything but Amazon. I've never had a Kindle and I never will, so I told em all to skip pressies. :)
I agree with everyone about watching more Tim Minchin! I love all his music, and have recently discovered his newer stuff. It's way more serious, but he's just brilliant. "The aeroplane" "I'll take lonely tonight" "The absence of you" And of course, "come home cardinal Pell."
I give gifts as a way of sharing of myself with the person. Since I love books, I tend to give books. More broadly, I like to share experiences, so I will share a movie or TV show, I’ll share a play, or a festival. But stories are a big part of that.
For sure anyone who thinks he can tickle the ivories from watching this is in for treat with Dark Side, and yes the awesome version is definitive. Agree with all, but in a restricted list I'd swap out the last two for the extended version of Storm, and Rock n Roll Nerd.
I live my life by a simple moral compass. Freedom without taking the freedom of others. At the heart of every crime or morally questionable behavior is someone taking away a freedom of someone else.
I think the point of the story about the kittens was that by reading the bible you'll find that drowning the misbehaving kittens you are doing the right thing, because it's the same thing God does in the story of Noah's ark.
Books are a common gift in my family and friends because they are all readers! That is changing now though with kindle and the like. None the less, most still prefer the feel and convenience of a good. Book.
Great react! I'd recommend taking a look at Tim's "Thank You God", which details his encounter with someone from an evangelical/faith healing church. (Also: re your comment on books as gifts.. I've lived in UK, US and now Australia - and it is definitely more common in UK/Australia from my experience.)
Oh! and you were on the money, he referenced Genesis 6:5-7. "The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created-and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground-for I regret that I have made them.”"
you basically just said "it's an acquired taste. " like cigarettes. you have choke on them for years until you finally get addicted. why not just.........not "acquire" that taste?
I love the part where Tim brings up complicated topics like abortion and euthanasia, because while he does briefly make his opinions on those things known with his wording choices, the main point he drives at is that there is nuance to these discussions and everyone involved has a responsibility to at least do some research.
One of my best friends sends me a cookbook (usually bread-related cause she loves baking and I like making things like pizza, lol) every year for either my bday or christmas, lol. My sister in law has also given me a book every so often, usually a sci-fi novel.
It's amazing to me that people don't see religion for what it is which is cultural window dressing. Just because you are born in India it doesn't mean that you have to be Hindu in the same way that being born in the USA doesn't mean that you have to be Christian. Lets be honest most people just go with the flow, are a product of their environment and have no interest in actual truth. It's all about being part of the in group. Religion is basically peer pressure applied since birth...if nobody was allowed to teach religion until a persons brain was developed it would be far less popular. Got to get them while they are young!
Well said. Every child is bourn an atheist. If you believe the bible if a child dies shortly after being bourn it go's to strait to hell. Ironically an atheist can be a good person all there lives and still go to hell. But someone like Adolf Hitler an evil mass murderer only has to say he believes in Christ and he go's strait to heaven!
girrrrrrl I never get books as gifts cause i stopped reading for pleasure years ago. But my hubby gave me a random book for xmas and I just finished it and it was SOO GOOD. I need to get more gift books apparently! also #supernaturalism
I'd love to hear why you believe what you believe. I have trouble understanding conforming to religious indoctrination as an adult. I understand if you don't want to though, not everyone would respond positively. Thanks for another video
It is so interesting to me. I don't look down on religious people, the ones who aren't hurting other people with their views are great. I don't understand, and I wonder if I could ever be religious.
I like what Jim Jefferies said " God and Lucifer are having an argument. God wrote a book saying all this stuff about Lucifer. Lucifer just said if your gonna talk like that I'm not even going to respond. So Lucifer is being the bigger man. "
Any Tim Minchin will be appreciated ❤
haha good to know!
Love him.

I receive books as gifts every year, but people i know know I love books 😁

Tim is brilliant. He’s so good and pointing out the obvious absurdity of the “good book”. Just how silly it really all is when you say it the way it is. Love this man.
You are the best type of Christian out there and we need more kind people like yourself. Signed, an atheist.
My wife and I travelled from Canada down to NYC for a two night stay in the middle of the week... SPECIFICALLY to catch Tim Minchin performing! We still agree that it's probably one of the top 5 greatest moments of our lives
There's no one out there who is a greater showman or composer than Tim and no one will ever be able to change my mind
So, you have 3 kids?
I like these lyrics at the end: "Good is good / And evil's bad / And kids get killed / When God gets mad..."
Yes! Have been waiting for you to react to Tim Minchin. "Prejudice" is always my recommendation for those new to him, although "Storm" is also amazing (who doesn't love a good 9-minute beat poem?).
Her cousin reacted to prejudice and got fairly upset.
@@Chetloore is her cousin ginger or stupid?
She did “Prejudice” about three months before this one.
@@Chetloorewhy? 🤔

Seconded

Tim Minchin - Thank you god
probably one of my favorites from him
Not Perfect by Tim Minchin is one of my all time favourites 💜
That one is heart-felt..
It's tucked away behind my eyes. 🥰
Tim Minchin is amazing!! His songs Thankyou God is amazing !!!
everything this guy does is semi-uncomfortable gold ! I love it
Tim has so many songs you will enjoy. Thank You God next. 👍👍👍
The drowning of the cats is a metaphor for the flood - where god decided that people were misbehaving and the only response was to drown them all. The good book says it's good - leaving out the mechanics of how the population was built back up afterwards from only one family of survivors...
You should definitely check out more Tim Minchin.
Prejudice
Storm
Dark Side (Awesome Version)
The Pope Song
Thankyou God
Lullaby
Tim is brilliant 🤘🏻🤘🏻
agreed!
Brilliant! You don't need a book to be a good human!
Tim is funny and intelligent and sure can play piano! You can be sure if Tim says it is in the book it is!
Check out his Thankyou God, full version. It is along the same lines and even more amazing.
You don't need a god to be a good human!
If I didn't have you is another great one from Tim.
The full/long version!
Tim is the best! "Prejudice", "Inflatable you", "Dark Side"
Haha. Im not religious myself but it’s good to see you can have your anchor in faith and still have a sense of humor about songs like this.
My philosophy of life is: If you're nice to me, I'm nice to you. It's as simple as that. Cheers from Oz.
It’s 6.15 am and I’m at my granddaughters’ house waiting for the four of them to get ready for school. This was so clever and funny!! You and Tim had me laughing out loud first thing in the morning!! 😂
aw I'm glad!! I hope you and your granddaughters go have the day y'all deserve!!
I was going to comment this. I’m glad someone else didn’t forget. It’s a conundrum; is he a funny comedian or a great pianist? Yes.
it is both :)
But is he a funny pianist or a great comedian?
Everything evens out over time, the past informs the present and vice versa, here's a word jumble, unscramble. Love.
Tim is amazing - if you react to him again, please react to “Prejudice”, “inflatable you”, “Lullaby” or “confessions”. No attacks on religion for you - but for 3 of those songs he tackles serious subjects with great satire.
I believe she has done a reaction to Prejudice.
Lullaby is amazing. Thank you God is up there as another one I want to see though
She did “Prejudice” about three months before this one.
Would love to see Dark Side by Tim Minchin. He's a musical and commedy genius!
Tim Minchin ❤
Some suggestions of other songs by him to check out:
Rock'n'roll Nerd
Not Perfect
Prejudice
You Grew On Me
Storm (a 9 minute beat poem)
I Can Have a Dark Side
White Wine In The Sun (this is the most beautiful song about Christmas ever written)
She did “Prejudice” about three months before this one.
my favorite tim minchin song is inflatable you when he was on the graham norton show. i laughed so hard. lol
Another great Tim reaction. Storm and his Uni speech. There’s also a song about someone’s mother.
I bet Tim Minchin's circle of family and friends actually do give him lots of books.
Mine too.
Not mine any more. I have trouble reading small fonts these days, so I've been reading e-readers for nigh on 20 years. Trouble is, none of my friends and family know about anything but Amazon. I've never had a Kindle and I never will, so I told em all to skip pressies. :)
Tim Minchin is a deep vein of gold
Your reaction at the kitty cat part is so cute. I had the same reaction 😂❤
I love Tim! Check out "Confessions" and "Prejudice" by him.
I agree with everyone about watching more Tim Minchin! I love all his music, and have recently discovered his newer stuff. It's way more serious, but he's just brilliant.
"The aeroplane"
"I'll take lonely tonight"

Tim Minchin is great. You should really check out this whole special.
Saw his musical Mathilda in London, when my girls were young.
Check out more Tim
Favourites are Dark Side (Awesome), Lullaby, White Wine in the Sun, Inflatable You, Confessions, Thank You God, Pope Song, 3 Minute Song
For sure anyone who thinks he can tickle the ivories from watching this is in for treat with Dark Side, and yes the awesome version is definitive. Agree with all, but in a restricted list I'd swap out the last two for the extended version of Storm, and Rock n Roll Nerd.
Tim Minchin is a legend 🙌 and you're very beautiful ❤ are you an angel 🥰
If everybody could just be a kind and loving person, we could all just take it easy and be a fellow human being to our fellow compariots
Super !!!
"I have not come to change the law but fulfill it" JC
You should check out Tim's song "Prejudice" and it's not what you think.
I live my life by a simple moral compass. Freedom without taking the freedom of others.
At the heart of every crime or morally questionable behavior is someone taking away a freedom of someone else.
What always amazed me is how the book which is the word from God, has so much cultural (stuck in that time) part in it.
I think the point of the story about the kittens was that by reading the bible you'll find that drowning the misbehaving kittens you are doing the right thing, because it's the same thing God does in the story of Noah's ark.
Haven’t even started watching this. And I know I’m going to love your reaction! ❤️
Love the hair ❤
he always do stand up's without a boots ) if you will watch all that concert you will get the point
Nice to see you headed down the Tim Minchin hole. What a talented odded ball....
“My goodness this man can play the keys!”
Yep, and he’s 100% self-taught!
Love your reactions mate, keep ‘em up 👍
Glad you like them! Thank you!
"Coming to terms with" means submitting to indoctrination in this case.
‘Supernaturalism’ is a word
Books are a common gift in my family and friends because they are all readers! That is changing now though with kindle and the like. None the less, most still prefer the feel and convenience of a good. Book.
The BOOT was a cowboy boot to represent the south.Hence the Southern accent in the song
it does say that .. the stoning thing
In some countries it is a tradition for each family member to be given a book on Christmas Eve and they spend that night reading.
Great react!
I'd recommend taking a look at Tim's "Thank You God", which details his encounter with someone from an evangelical/faith healing church.
(Also: re your comment on books as gifts.. I've lived in UK, US and now Australia - and it is definitely more common in UK/Australia from my experience.)

Tim Minchin was like my entire sophomore & junior years.
This is Bo's hero
He's OUR hero 😂
Yep. I get lots of books as gifts because I read alot.
You know he is a self confessed atheist... He is so good with his facts and dialogue... Satire at its best... First time here with you, well done...
Absolutely brilliant reaction. Please check out Thank You God, Prejudice and The Pope song Xxx
Nobody has mentioned the Pope song!
It amazes me that people can subscribe to a belief system for a lifetime yet never think about its meaning.
you basically just said "it's an acquired taste. "
like cigarettes.
you have choke on them for years until you finally get addicted.
why not just.........not "acquire" that taste?
Its the best selling fictional book ever written , written by people who never met the subject of the book
Morality from prophet story
1. Noah
2. Abraham
3. Lot
Your hair is so pretty 😍
Tim Minchin is a gem. A super amazing human and far too talented for my liking. 😂
I love the part where Tim brings up complicated topics like abortion and euthanasia, because while he does briefly make his opinions on those things known with his wording choices, the main point he drives at is that there is nuance to these discussions and everyone involved has a responsibility to at least do some research.
of course, an ''all-knowing'' god wouldn't have made such immoral rules ''for the times''
You need to watch other videos of Tim! He got more that’s mutch better! 🥳
Brit would definitely enjoy You grew on me
Drowned by Tim Minchin, it's very obscure Tim Minchin but such a beautiful song that deserves more credit.
My favourite is "Prejudice" and definitely one to challenge you
You should check out Minchins "Thank You, God"!
One of my best friends sends me a cookbook (usually bread-related cause she loves baking and I like making things like pizza, lol) every year for either my bday or christmas, lol. My sister in law has also given me a book every so often, usually a sci-fi novel.
Either we take the book literally everywhere or nowhere.
check out a band called beast in black the song is blind and frozen you might like it

Your opinions on this are very interesting :) stay well x
Saying "culturally acceptable for the times" is special pleading.
Tim Minchin is an aethiest so if he’s likely to offend, then you shouldn’t listen. He doesn’t mean harm, he just has his own beliefs
“I don’t think I’ve gotten many books.“ Well… That explains a lot. 😊 I’m just kidding.
You should check out Prejudice by him before you judge, he uses a certain "word" some give him a pass tho 😞
And hello from Slovenia
The Norm Macdonald "The Moth Joke" on Conan o'brien is top tier comedy. check it out
Love that he put on an American accent while singing. Evangelist anyone?
