I love it when Eli goes full Ray Comfort. It seriously makes my day. Thanks for making me laugh, you guys.

I know! I can't stop laughing. It's my go to source for glee whenever I feel down.

Quote from the pastor at my parent's church: "If you're not evangelizing to others about the word of God, then you're being a stagnant Christian and you might as well not be Christian at all" One of the times as a kid where I started realizing that there was something seriously wrong with those people.

Relistening. At the 2021 Ark Park Protest a henchman of Ray was handing out propaganda cards with a real two dollar bill inside. I didn't know who he was but as i read the card it was reminiscent of Ray so I did my best "are you a good person" Comfort voice. Then I notice the Way of The Master logo. I lsughed even harder. Then I gave the two dollar bill to Mandisa Thomas for Black Nonbelievers.

The bloke who was too lazy to look up bibliophile also thought Okapi was photoshop.

What kills me the most about Ray's argument is that part about the banana ibeing genetically modified by HUMANS and that it didn't start out looking that way, RAY!! That's what's so hilarious. They were once flat, dufus! Ah, that kills me. Does he STILL not get that!?

Ray: Here's a clever idea that will repackage the whole watch-maker's argument in an entertaining way and shut those atheists up. Ray (one week after it's made the rounds): What do you mean people are making fun of it? No, I don't see why coconuts being hard to consume has anything to do with it. Bananas are obviously created by God for us to be easy to eat, and we took inspiration from God to make soda cans... What do you mean the banana I used was selectively-bred by humans to be more easily-consumed and wild bananas don't look like them? Are you crazy? Does no one see the point I was making? I've got to call Kirk. Ray (two weeks after): This was a comedy routine to show atheists have no sense of humor. Kirk and I could hardly keep straight-faces during the filming. Silly atheists.

Yup. Except the clue-in was more like 20 years than 2 weeks. With debunks published from at least as long ago as once he got beyond churches in NZ. I recall Hellbound Allee doing it on about Day 3 of Podcasting. 15 or so years ago.

BANNANNNNAAA MAAANNNNN

My new favorite episode.

Ray Comfort was the reason I became an Atheist. I can still remember that hilarious video he did with Kirk Cameron about Origin of Species and how they were totally gonna connect Darwin to Hitler.

I needed this episode today. Thank you, guys!

If you let Ray interview you, you must insist that he uses an out-of-frame boom microphone, but holds a banana like he would usually hold a microphone, and he is not allowed to reference this in any way ever. He is at most allowed to wink while saying "no comment".

Now I can't get Sissy Spacek covered in blood while doing physical comedy out of my head. Thank you, Eli! Sincerely!

Dress as banana man from the British cartoon and stay in character voice. He can say what he wants but he has to constantly do the voice.

Ray is such an awful guy.

Comfort is just a gold mine for riffing.Eli's impression. IS AMAZIIIIING! Like if he came over with his whole "are you a good person" shit, I would do nothing more than play that old "Peanut butter jelly time" dancing banana gif. Every new picture of Ray Comfort the human makeup is coming off the giant sentient asshole Ray is doing his Wimp Lo in the movie- "I am bleeding, making me the victor!"

I've been to two P&T shows - one in Chicago and one in Vegas. Teller talks in the lobby during the meeting and greeting.

That "Never do good things purely because there's no benefit in it" shit seriously irks me because when I was still _legit_ Christian, I was never told anything like that! _(Looking back, I guess I lucked out in never knowing a single shitty Christian in my life.)_ Sure, doing good things didn't entitle you to Heaven, but you were still expected to do good, simply because it was the right thing to do _(treat others how you want yourself to be treated and all that.)_ contrary to _despairingly_ popular belief, Grace through Faith doesn't give you a free pass to rape and pillage your way through life, and then just have it all forgiven at the last minute. And anyone who tells you that _IS_ the case is most likely a sociopath. What I'm saying is _Ray Comfort is a Sociopath..._

Which one does the Ray Comfort voice? I could listen to him play ray all day.

Joshua Eli!

I wonder how much Christen Whiting (TM) they used to make this movie? How many tons are they using to try to turn his most infamous argument into an intentional joke? A "joke" he still believes to be a good argument for God because he's made a whole movie, almost 20 years later to re-contextualize and DEFEND it! I feel like he's the poster child for every smug apologist who's never wrong no matter how you try correct their "facts" - screw them. They just feel good spreading lies as if they're true, no matter the cost.

Ray ain't a bibliophile. He's a bibliodolator.

Atheism needs to finally just get a restraining order against Ray, and end this toxic codependent relationship. Ray...time to throw in the towel and move on buddy, we tried.

the fool says in his heart: "the banana proves god because it's perfectly designed for human consumption"

That band who had that one hit 20 years ago, and now they're releasing a remix to re-start their careers? That actor who was in that one movie 20 years ago, and now they're "leaking" a sex tape? That's Ray Comfort.

The title of this movie gives me a terrible thought; what if Ray Comfort somehow became a _"Shin Megami Tensei: Persona"_ Protagonist?

Wait... he complained about context and tried to tell everyone all about how they were mistaken? Oh fuck... Ray Comfort is Christian Westin Chandler!

The Christchurch Wizard is a real dude, or was, he's dead now. He was Christchurch's official wizard and regularly cursed politicians and stuff. Once he travelled to auckland to break the drought, did a rain dance and that day it rained ... was always on the national news and media.

Disappointed that this was not a sequel to Dostoyevsky's "The Idiot."

One of these days you should stream one of these pre recorded shows live

1:27:00 Why is "filthy sheep" Ray's go-to example? Well, he spent his childhood and early adulthood in New Zealand. Where the hobbits are hobbits. And the sheep, though outnumbering the humans and hobbits combined, are still nervous. word is, they've calmed down since Ray went to America.

This is so good.. couldn't watch even half of The Fool it was so proud to be stupid .. cringe hell

I’ve heard Teller speak after a show in Arizona. He has a lovely voice.

This one is always a classic

Whooooh!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Which is funnier: Ray Comfort wroting "thorts" or Kent Hovind writing "thots"?

Ray nay be half right about those extra views. IGA, I'm here for the Ray, done by Eli.

I see the weirdo took a photo of a strangers legs and posted it on twitter. I suppose it was a good job the legs belong to a man.

"Traveling with my truthbrush a breeze."

49:22 reminds me or when I was talking to a street preacher and he asked if I thought adultery was a sin. I think I tried to say no I don't believe in sin and before I could explain that wrong and sin aren't the same he was back on his mic telling everybody I thought it was OK to cheat on my girlfriend

Fun fact: my 9th grade biology teacher was also a preacher. He was a pretty good teacher. Never brought God into it (unlike a few of my other teachers).

Eli is really good at not just doing the impression itself but the lines are spot on, too. 😘🤌🏻
