The Nativity Story (as told by Seth Andrews)
In a recent livestream, Seth wondered how he might relate the baby Jesus story to children. Then, he vamped it for 5 minutes.
Viewers have asked for his rendition as a stand-alone clip. Enjoy!

I'm a 71 year old man whose mother and father were BOTH ministers. (why couldn't I have been an orphan?) THAT WAS THE BEST CHRISTMAS STORY EVER!
Seth's sense of humor is never far from the surface. Love this guy. Thanks for the laugh, and Happy Festivus!

Well the having to go to bethleham for the census (which is not a thing that ever was a roman law ) was add much latter to try and make jeusus of NAZERETH meet the requirements for the jewish messiah which he does not thus proving christianity doesn texist!
Thanks, I needed a good laugh. I live in a (very) Catholic country in South America and have to keep my mouth closed around this time of year. When I see the "Nativity scene" displayed in peoples' houses, that they literally believe actually happened, I have a hard time not asking them some questions. Instead, I just go along with the traditions, feel sorry for their brainwashing, and enjoy the time with family.

The true meaning is known to the HUMANS who are just happy the mother avoided a stoning, the child and mother survived the birth, and the step-father seems to have loved and supported them both? If only the same were unfailingly true in Gaza this Holy Christian Foreign Military Aid Holiday?

Thanks for this reality check! A friend of mine was caned in school when he was 10 for asking during the religion lesson, if Adam and Eve and Cain and Abel were the first human beinge, who were the people Cain met outside paradise with whom he founded his family etc.... Thuis happened in the Sixties. Religion is a heinous delusion!

@isaganipalanca8803 and the ways they try to explain Cain going to "the Land of Nod." Especially when you say then that means there were other human beings on Earth already, and had built the area. Oh, no, they say...Cain called it that after he got there, from his wandering. But what about his being afraid that "anyone who sees me will try to kill me?" If there were no one there, no one would try to kill him; But what really is a head scratcher (maybe) is how would the inhabitants of Nod know who he was and what he did that would make them want to kill him? I've asked that and all I get are slack-jawed, glazed-eyes expressions.

I like to include that when Herod was killing babies, the family sought asylum in Egypt. They were not met by a big beautiful wall and no one yelled, "Go back to your own country!". Baby Jebus' life was saved!

Ok, but isn't that because Egypt at that time was part of the Roman Empire, as was the region where Bethlehem would have been ? So I'm guessing they were able to move relatively freely because of that. And given that there was a significant jewish presence in egypt at the time, I suspect that helped ?

@@kdemetter all that doesn’t change the fact that Jesus and his family were refugees. And if we want to miss the point the OP was making and get pedantic let’s do it right.

I particularly detest and fortunately do not believe the prediction by Isaiah of the women in Bethlehem mourning their slain children, which I think is the source of the story of the three learned astrologers who were too stupid to verify that King Herod had a recent son, For one thing, Herod was dead by the time of zero AD. In the second place, the Almighty One did nothing to prevent the child slaughter.

It never fails to amaze me how a story so obviously false can still have over a billion people believing in it. Says something about how powerful the indoctrination of children before they reach the age of reason really is and proves it's a form of child abuse.

I can't wait until they make the movie!
I love this man. His delivery is perfect.
That is the BEST explanation of Christianity l have ever heard! It summarizes every thought I ever gleaned from all my years as a kid in Sunday School and as a teenager in church activity mandated by my parents until they realized I didn't want to go anymore. Everything I was taught in school or read on my own convinced me that every story in the bible was not and could not be true. As a voracious reader I figured out it is fiction and it is bad storytelling to boot. Terrible editing is the least of its problems. Greek mythology was MUCH more entertaining. Just about anything is. Doesn't hold even a teeny tiny candle to The Lord of the Rings. Now that is great fiction. All hale Tolkien!
Seth, you are too much. Happy New Year!
Thanks for making me laugh at the idiocy of something that I used to believe in without question.
I have not been able to watch a nativity play without laughing ever since I saw the Life of Brian😊. Other takes on the Bible story that have always made me laugh are Dudley Moore in Wholly Moses and scenes in Mel Brooks History of the World (ie the 15 Commandments).

@@njhoepner WELL before the time of Christ, it was no "miracle." It was the cutting edge technology of the time: The phonetic alphabet. The ancient Hebrews began recording their stories with this radical new invention, and when it eventually took off, their written lore was already old and established, which lent it credibility. Because it was written, it was static, which kept it from splintering into different sects as is common with orally-transferred lore. Religious people don't like me much when I have an answer to their insipid challenge: "If Christianity isn't the one true faith, how did it become so prevalent?"

@@pricklypear7516 Well, the phonetic long predates the writing of the bible, and many other religious myths were written that way as well. The survival of christianity and some other myths is an accident of history that by itself proves nothing. If we were standing around at about the time of Jesus, we'd be asking how Roman religion and Greek religion and Babylonian religion lasted so long and remained so prevalent. If we stood in Jerusalem in 632 CE, we'd be asking how Islam could sweep aside christianity so readily. All particular to a time and a place and accidents of history. A few centuries from now christianity may be an historical curiosity and we'll be asking completely different questions.

@@njhoepner We don't know how long the Hebrew monotheistic stories were conveyed exclusively by oral tradition, but they most certainly pre-date the phonetic alphabet's origin of sometime in the 2nd millennium BCE. (We ARE talking Old Testament lore here, you know.) And Islam most certainly did NOT "sweep aside Christianity" upon its relatively late arrival. . . Christianity hardly had a toe-hold itself in the area.
