- To help you through your self-isolation or quarantined state, here's an anthem from the genius songwriter and star of Jesus Christ Superstar, Tim Minchin.
OH AND REMEMBER TO WASH YOUR HANDS
Taken from his 2008 special F*cking Rock.
If anyone can show me one example in the history of the world
Of a single psychic who has been able to prove
Under reasonable experimental conditions
That they are able to read minds
And if anyone can show me one example in the history of the world
Of a single astrologer who has been able to prove
Under reasonable experimental conditions
That they can predict future human events by interpreting celestial signs
And if anyone can show me one example in the history of the world
Of a single Homoeopathic Practitioner who has been able to prove
Under reasonable experimental conditions
That solutions made up of infinitely tiny particles of good stuff
Dissolved repeatedly into relatively huge quantities of water
Has a consistently higher medicinal value
Than a similarly administered placebo
And if anyone can show me one example in the history of the world
Of a single spiritual person who has been able to show
Either empirically or logically the existence of a higher power
With has any consciousness or interest in the human race or ability to
Punish or reward humans for there moral choices or that there is any
Reason other than fear to believe in any version of an afterlife

"having a nail hammered through his feet, the very feet that Tony provided him with, as a punishment for having a sort of schizophrenic discourse with a god who was created by man to explain the existence of feet in the absense of the knowledge of the existence of Tony" is one of the most brilliant lines anyone has ever come up with.
Also makes you wonder when exactly we should've just stopped and said "Okay! Back to the ocean!"
@@PanophobicCuber some of us did. We're whales now.

Peter Sellers That's just brilliant - thank you. I fell down a huge freshwater hole and eventually into the sea, but I learned a great deal more about cetaceans on the way. Thanks again for the info - and for another unexpected adventure in Science here in Timminchinland! 😀
Sitting here with a broken foot I got from tripping over my own carpet, I'm suddenly full of anxiety watching Tim Minchin muck around on stage barefoot.
I feel the same, recovering from a broken ankle!
@@TheLucyblades ban all carpets! and rugs!
Out here breaking the feet Tony has provided you with.
Great. Now THAT'S gonna be stuck in my head the rest of the day!

It's a banger. That's for sure
Surprised no one gave an applause when he jumped up on the stage during his fish routine
Sameeee
cause it wasn't really funny
Nice pfp
I didn't either
The audience was imagining they were the very fish that hated Tony, that's why, you're welcome
My family just got a bunch of fish for the kids, each kid got to name one fish, their parents named one each and there was one left over, which I got to name...
I named that fish Tony.
This is perfect in so many levels.
He’s so funny, intelligent and gorgeous!
He's a twat.

@Lucky The pup there are only two possible explanations... Is that right? Moron
@An Orc Warrior see below
I'm quite religious but i really enjoyed this and will definitely look up more of his content. Having some different opinions with the guy doesn't change the fact that he is hilarious, creative and overall really talented
Curious how knowing that you are religious tells us exactly nothing about yourself. You could be Wiccan, Jewish, Islamic, Mormon, Hindu, Zoroastrian, Shinto,Chinese tradition, or just worship your cat and religiously feed it every day.
Try his song "Thank You God" :)
Not to mention the part where he's right.
I'm quite atheist and I enjoy speaking with religious people as long as they don't insist of saving me and they don't want to adapt the law to his views.
Get free from all Religions and as many conditioning systems as possible.
All God's are man made imagination and fiction
Tim is a genius.
I've been doing chores and I loooveee saying every 5 seconds *"I will give ya my piaNO... One of my LEGS... And my WIFE"*
Take my wife :D
*shy high note*
I have Christian friends who pray for me constantly and worry about me a lot. They think I’m missing out. I’m not.
Isn’t it interesting how theists simultaneously think atheist are happier for having no rules, but miserable for having no purpose. Life is never that simple, but I’ve been accused of both by the same person.
Scott Campbell Wait, they think we don’t have rules? I’ve heard the lack of a purpose, but never a lack of rules.
well, at least you keep them busy and give them a purpose.
Flargarbason One of the most common things I hear from religious people is that we have nothing guiding us because we don’t believe their bible. They don’t seem to care that that same bible is full of immoral rules that even religious people ignore.
It’s our next life they seem to be concerned about, not this one. I’m perfectly happy believing this is it. It completely freaks them out.
I don't need to imagine that I'm a fish. 🐟

So dolphins are fish.

Option B: You could make a rel - no don't
Brilliant comedian, vocalist and pianist....
Has anyone noticed that he has absolutely stunning eyes
😊 I’m guessing his makeup artist did, yes.
At present, nobody has been able to claim Tim's wife.

I, now, love you
I feel oddly at odds with myself for being able to keep up with and understand, every word and nuance within that song. How Tim remembers the lyrics, let alone time them so perfectly is beyond me! My brain fell out. 🤣
"Those are gonna come in foot!"
He's brilliant, talented and funny.
😆
I love this and laugh every time I hear this! Tim is brilliant! The best entertainer alive today! 💗
oh my dear. you're brilliant.
try arnica gel (a homeopathic) the next time you get a bad bruise.
love you. even though i'm a working "psychic." thanks especially for your 'confirmation bias' video, which articulately and economically states several points i've been trying to make since november of 2016.
thanks again for the brilliance. heart emoji here
Arnica gel actually contains the herb, though, unlike many homeopathic remedies that are diluted until there is only water left (and no trace of the original substance), and then the water is somehow made into little sugary pills (still containing the alleged "memory" of the water?).
The arnica gel on the other hand contains extracts of two medicinal herbs and also vitamin C, alcohol and glycerol.
There is 1X solution of 7% Arnica montana in it -- 1X homeopathic solutions means they are diluted to 1/10 of their original ingredient
The other extract is Extract Gaultheria procubens, and I don't know how much
Then there is Ascorbyl palmitate (Vitamin C)
And Glycerol and Phenoxyethanol
So if this works it doesn't really prove the homeopathic principles
still amazing as always 😂
love his eyeliner. totally killin it with the makeup, but could use some wings :p
The eyeliner is there because it accents his facial expressions he has to use to communicate when his hands are tied to the piano... It's not really for decoration or looks, just practical. Still looks great though :)
@@deltav864 is this true?
I’m crying laughing and I’m crying happy tears knowing mankind is not lost as long as there are geniuses like him.
I first saw Tim Minchin when he starred as Atticus Fetch in Californication. This guy is brilliant. What did they saw to him while filming Californication....... "Just be yourself" ........ because it certainly looks like it........ he has an extraordinary memory and talent inside that strange little mind of his.
I love this man so much
Brilliant. Good go chap.
Very nice
More Tim Minchin please!
Super impressed by his hop onto the stage.
This made me smile so hard. Thanks.
His friend could make the opposite offer to him if he could prove that there is no God. They are both pretty safe, Ma Hifra.
Of course, coreycox2345, only one of those requests is reasonable, given who has the burden of proof in this case.
@@tomwatson9178 Yeah, right. You made that up. Anyone who makes the statement that there is or isn't a god has the burden of proof. Let's hear it.
coreycox2345 Perhaps we have a different understanding of Tim’s position - he makes it pretty clear hear and elsewhere that he does not believe in any god because he sees no evidence for one.
I haven’t ever heard him make the leap to go “THEREFORE there is no god”. I agree with you, that’s absolutely a positive claim that picks up the burden of a proof; however, merely saying “I’m unconvinced, so I don’t yet believe you” (as I believe Tim does, albeit quite forcefully) is quite different.
coreycox2345 although that’s true, there is no reason whatsoever to believe in the existence of a God, and all reasons to believe there isn’t one... I mean, millions of deaths, hunger, famine, abuse, overall suffering of children all over the world that it’s unthinkable that there is someone that knows it all, could fix it all easily but decides not to.
It’s like when a video of child abuse comes online and all ppl say the guy filming without doing nothing is just as guilty and should be held accountable, so if there was a God he would have been just as bad, guilty and accountable, not someone for men to admire and praise.
Brilliant man!!!
Brilliant!
My ribs hurt from laughing!
Brilliant
I love Tim so much
He’s the best...
I almost cried with the piece.
fackin tony
He's brilliant!
I fucking love tim minchin
Oh, and thank you.
Purpose is an idea of perception
george pell just loves this funny business.
This is some epic stuff man I need to look more into this dudes content
Levulon Thank you God is my personal favorite
Oh you really should. He's been around for years and has heaps of content on his own channel and others have uploaded concerts he has done.
Yes! 'Thank you God' and 'Drinking White Wine in the Sun'. 😁
“Content”
Ugh
drumrocka Sorry, he meant “works of art”
I'm viscerally reminded of that one tumblr meme that goes "this niche empty, feet"
Personally, I am interested in both the sciency and the magicky ideas. Both have some great potential and a significance of their own. I'll say though, it's incredible how you can introduce science into magick, and all you get is a new, curious kind of magic. Put some magick in your science and it probably isn't science anymore.
Supernatural ideas happen because people aren't comfortable with not knowing. We like to make sense of the world, so when we don't have answers some people are led to guess how things might have happened even if they don't make logical sense. I think we also like the idea of having some kind of awe and wonder in our lives, but Tim's argument is that can be achieved through the appreciation of science which can also seem like magic even if we know how it works.
That was a nice jump
Two years ago I didn't like this. Now I do. I actually will never put a negative comment on any comedians videos again because it turns out that all they want to do is make you laugh. I will admit I don't love it, but I do appreciate all comedians
Tim is not just a comedian though. He is a massive advocate for science and critical thinking. He is a teacher. A lot of his works are about destroying erroneous beliefs.
Of course, Tony's full name was Tony Taalik.
Catchy lyrics... 😂
God bless this man XD
genuinley so funny
Fucking brilliant 👏

I constantly just want to comb his hair or at least try to do it.
It needs moisturization.
@@politereminder6284 pretty sure the look of his hair is on purpose. Most likely tons of hairspray. To get it to look like that.
@@lindseylippincott5803 I would love to see how it falls naturally. I bet he has a bit of a natural curl or wave. That would be nice to see. ( I am obsessed with natural hair)
@@politereminder6284 it does look kinda like the one time I straightened a friend's hair. She had really tight curls. It's hard to picture Tim with tight curls, but who knows!
@@politereminder6284 Naturally his hair is tightly curled. He gets it chemically straightened. Then messes it up on purpose for his shows.
To understand him you need science knowledge too 😍....and his script is just amazing comedy&motivation both are amazing...I just love it ❤️

I came back solely for the fish bit. I forgot there was a song.

‘Reasonable experimental conditions’ always are unreasonable to those charlatans.
Bacteria is evolving constantly. Because we treat bacterial diseases with antibiotics, they die. Some are created with abnormalities as can every living thing (birth defects) sometimes this can be a positive thing, like in this case, a resistance to antibiotics. This means they’re less likely to die from antibiotics. Since they don’t die, they continue to divide and create more with the same abnormality, while the original bacteria without the evolution will die off due to an inability to survive the antibiotics (unless the conditions are well enough for them to continue to thrive)
I mean micro-evolution is obviously real and isn't debated amongst anyone. The only thing debated is species to special macroevolution.
@@LiamDePaux Still uses the exact same principle, just different, more dramatic, birth defect. If it's born with a positive abnormality, it's more likely to survive, and pass on it's abnormal gene.
Whoever came up with the idea of micro-evolution is a marketing genius. I admire that sort of sociopathic cunning.
Yeah, macro-smoking can cause cancer. But it's never been proven for micro-smoking. Okay, nobody is arguing that micro-overdosing of heroin is lethal but macro-overdosing is something completely different. Did I have sex with your wife? Are you talking about micro-fucking or macro-fucking, because...
Onkel Pappkov Alright, so your saying heroin death isn’t caused by the actual heroin it’s actually just coincidentally die because god murdering you at the exact moment the heroin started destroying your body. I didn’t fuck your wife, God used me as a tool to fuck your wife, I’m completely innocent if I murder someone because God was the one who got me to do it. You can’t take the good without the ugly.
You can’t say 6 divided by 3 is 1 just because 3 divided by 3 is.

The joke is that the evolution of ice cream took longer than human evolution.
Considering we've been evolving for hundreds of millions of years and are still evolving, I have to say nope.
Jean Roch sorry that wasn’t a yes/no proposition. It’s a fact.
@@nickdryad if it's wrong it's not a fact, what are you, trump ?
Jean Roch what the fuck man. Humans evolved then came ice cream; it’s a fact.
nickdryad Not really, evolution measures the changes in something that already exists. Ice cream didn’t start evolving until after it was created.

Hey Tim, on an episode of Louis Theroux about autism, he was interviewing a mum of a teenage child with high functioning autism. On the show she didn’t seem very religious and she said he was very low functioning until she took him to a healing service. This surprised me because low functioning autistic kids wouldn’t be effected by placebo or other suggestive manipulations. Check out the episode yourself. The mum could have been mistaken of course and it is certainly is not a scientific account, but it left me wondering.
I think Karen Armstrong is brilliant at highlighting the issues with literal interpretation of religious texts. Ironically the scientific revolutions understandable preoccupation with literal truth in the 19th century seems to have spurred on religious fanatics to interpret the Bible literally rather than as intended, an allegorical text. All religious texts are, and always were, a series of fictional parables to give meaning and direction to life. Confusing mythology with literal truth is religions biggest mistake and means many miss out on a spiritual life because of this outdated interpretation.
Lol...
But let's recall that the science bit that is right at one point was of the opinion that the earth was flat.
Yes, but that's the thing. Science progresses based on knew knowledge. Religion doesn't.
@@PianoDiary85 Science progresses because it is searching for truth. Perhaps religion...or more accurately the bible does not change because it is truth.
He skipped quite a few million years within the evolutionary process.
That can happen in... comedy.
Darwin was a devout Christian; wrote “On Species” and created the Theory of Evolution as an argument to support God’s existence (evolution is a part of God’s plan).
Devout? His actual quote was "an Agnostic would be the more correct description of my state of mind."
You Need Your Medication! - His wife brought him to the dark side of the force.
Look it up.
@@danalexander2149 You mean made him see the light :)
You Need Your Medication! - Depends on the denomination. #QuakerLife
@@danalexander2149 Just a quick note of possible interest; Darwin neither conceived of nor created the theory of evolution.
The Catholic Church is not against science or the theory of evolution. Many people forget that the man who came up with the Big Bang theory was a catholic priest. And one of the first female mathematicians was a catholic nun. I get some Christian denominations r against science but it’s not wise to assume all r of that mind set.
I’m not saying this out of anger. Just want to clarify and inform some people that not all Christians think this way.
God Bless, 🌹🕊🌹
If you fully believe in the bible, you can’t believe in science because a lot of what god does is impossible with science.
Fryzler God created Science which means He is master over it. He is not bound by its laws. If He were bound by it, He would seas to be God. We r made up of cells, bacteria DNA etc. God created all these. Science merely explains the substance of the natural law, unseen to the naked eye. But science has nothing to do with the supernatural law. You can’t measure and define the natural & supernatural law in the same way. For example u can’t measure the temperature in the room with a ruler, but with a thermometer. You need to adapt according to what ur measuring. I pray that makes sense. The Bible is meant to feed the soul and draw it closer to God. To instruct us how to grow in sanctity and to become more like Christ. The Bible is a book which shows us God the Father, teaching us about His love and Mercy. It was never meant to be used as a book of science, it was never meant to be used to interpret cells DNA, elements etc. I mean we acknowledge mathematics, and it’s importance, yet we are never taught algebra in scripture. That’s because that’s not it’s function. The Funktion of scripture is to show us the Face of God, and to transform our souls through meditation and prayer. Through it, God speaks to us, and we learn to here His voice.
I pray this makes sense. I understand if u still disagree with me. I’m not saying all this to belittle u in any way. I only want to explain my perspective. I hope it helps u in some kind of way. And please do keep me in ur prayers.
God Bless u, and thank u for commenting ☺️🌹🕊🌹
(Ps. Plz excuse any spelling or grammar errors, as I’m dyslexic 😅)
Lucky The pup I’m not denying those scientific facts. They just don’t disprove God to me. I know I get a dopamine hit when I’m around those I love. God designed all these things to help us thrive as human beings. I get it if u struggle to believe in a God (I use to be an atheist myself). I just ask that u respect the fact that I do. I’m not here to fight u, since ur not my enemy.
God Bless u 🌹🕊🌹
Lucky The pup don’t worry, I’d never do that. One can’t force any one into faith. That wouldn’t be loving. ☺️ I hope u have a nice day 🌹🕊🌹
Francis&Fawn /Catholic&Danish so do you or do you not believe in the Big Bang and how the world was created or do you believe that it was created in seven days, defying science.
Funny, but the idea of feet or some such thing emerging spontaneously with an individual of a species is... problematic.
It's comedy..
@@johan.ohgren duh...
The theory is that it didn't happen spontaneously but over millions of years.
Sounds more like a lecture against religion than comedy.
Made me laugh.
But then, listening to stories about people making assertions that supernatural religious concepts have any tangible relationship to reality usually do.

He has no idea how evolution works XDD
Given that Tim is incredibly intelligent, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that this explanation was a dumbed down, schoolhouse rock version of evolution described that way for comedic effect and not to be scientifically accurate.
Yes, he does! Have you any idea how comedy works?
Boy, Boris has no idea how comedy works XDD
Is Tim like the son of Bill Bailey? Same music stand up comedy. Only Minchin throws enough shallow atheistic jokes to make you dislike him after a while.
And if anyone in the world can prove under reasonable experimental conditions that a living cell can develop from a nonliving clump of minerals , well you're not getting My Guitar, but seeing as NASA hasn't been able to do it in their entire history, I feel like I'm on pretty safe ground.
So therefore clearly it must have been the invisible, undetectable, infallible and all powerful man upstairs who created life. Of course!!
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_of_the_gaps
@@DJayDiamond No, don't be so defensive, sarcastic, etc ... But if you want to prove something scientifically then you should have evidence, which in this case is lacking. In this case, science has become the religion which people believe without any proof. For example, evolution according to Darwin's model is generally accepted by people the world over, yet there doesn't exist any evidence of one species becoming another. So a new understanding must be reached. The Sumerians describe the creation of human beings by aliens. The question then becomes who created the aliens? Or did they, seemingly impossibly, evolve from a puddle of muddy water too?
@@grantperkins368 Except there is direct empirical evidence of species turning from one into the other (speciation). Theres evidence of it in the fossil record

Hell, we even did it ourselves with dogs! (Tamed from wolves - although as with all things the truth is complicated)
I mean the whole process of speciation and natural selection is v complicated but please read and educate yourself on it rather than believe in something that is unverifiable
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciation
@@grantperkins368 'Science has become the religion which people believe without any proof'
Bruh, the whole point of science is to do the opposite of that. To find the objective truth about the universe by careful application of the scientific method. It's not a religion (most religions require blind faith in something that cant be proven)
If you want to talk about atheism as a belief system that most people follow and how that has somehow eroded human morality then that's a separate discussion, but don't throw out the baby with the bath water and proclaim science is somehow pointless or whatever.
Evolution was proven over 1 hundred years ago. By people trying to disprove it. They set up experiments, they searched the world, dissected specimens and realised that he was right. He got a few bits wrong, but the grand, overarching idea was correct.
Then they unlocked the human genome, and found enough evidence to prove it all right, all over again.
