With all due respect lad, Mormons aren't Christians.

[@markkillset5205]

Only "classic example" you managed to expose is your inability to determine what is Christianity and what was done "in the name" of Christianity. You are a perfect example of an uneducated person who follows and truly has no idea why he is not following. You are a sheep! Fairy tales are made up. Scientist who are NOT Christians have proven Jesus was a real man and did exist. You clearly not understanding theology is the reason your small brain sees them as fairy tales. Tell me this, because the KKK hanged and persicuted blacks and Jews in the name of Christianity and white supremacy does that mean all white people are racist KKK members? You will find no teachings in "christianity" to burn anyone. Its the famous "go to move" excuses people like yourself always try to use when speaking of the Bible. It's always scriptures from Leviticus or exodus which is a THOUSAND years "BEFORE CHRIST" and they were the laws of Moses. They spoke in parables. Find me in the NEW testaments where it says its ok to burn people who are witches? Ive studied theology for 6 years including world histoey and other religions. You my friend like this guy in the video are WAYYYYYY out of your league. Stick to sponge Bob buddy.

[@markkillset5205]

Responses of frustration and desperation from non believers when confronted with facts...how typical! Thank you for proving my point once again with your nonsense. If you actually had an IQ then you would know in didn't tell you to think for yourself. You give yourself too much credit. I'm telling you that you DON'T think for yourself and therefor sound like a complete uneducated moron. There are many educated people who are not Christians. Those people chose not to bash something just because they don't believe in it. Then there are those uneducated people who do ridiculous things "in the name" of Christianity and misrepresent the word of God. You chose to be a follower instead of actually educating yourself.

[@skilz3210]

Ven Tarfield *cough cough* Skillet *cough cough*

[@Psymon1471]

+xXLerøy NajatahnXx Superstition is defined as: excessively credulous belief in and reverence for supernatural beings. That's is religion in a nutshell. So being Christian is in fact by definition being superstitious. There is no difference between cult and organised religion. If a cult can achieve enough longevity and scale it will be seen as an organised religion. Christianity, during the Roman Empire, was seen by the establishment as a cult and then when it was adopted by Emperor Constantine it became the state religion. Nothing changed except besides how it was perceived by the state. If you want to follow those beliefs go on but, as Glenn said, no belief is above refute, not even science. That's what peer review and theory is defined by - that's how scientific study evolves over time based on current understanding. Trying to maintain a antiquated doctrine without criticism is how people end up flying into buildings.

[@XBlueM0ndayX]

stlchucko You didn't launch into a hate-filled rant, Glenn did. He did it in response to a polite voice mail and his response was completely disproportionate to the voicemail, hence at the drop of a hat. And I do understand the difference between a right to believe and having the belief. But if you attack someone's belief, you're not respecting it. There is an obvious difference between saying "I choose not to accept your beliefs" and "I think your beliefs are crap".

[@XBlueM0ndayX]

+Octavio P. First of all, you can point out why you disagree with someone without being a dick about it. "I don't agree with this because XYZ" is a lot more constructive than "I fucking hate christianity because you all burned people at the stake once upon a time". Second, and more importantly, don't try to pretend that you're RESPECTING someone's beliefs while simultaneously ATTACKING those beliefs. If you're trying to make someone feel bad about their beliefs, how are you respecting someone's right to believe in any way? That would only be possible if you have some very loose definition of 'respect'.

[@stlchucko]

XBlueM0ndayX You are continuing to demonstrate that you don't understand the difference between *respecting the right* to have a belief and respecting the belief itself. No one is saying they're "RESPECTING someone's beliefs while simultaneously ATTACKING those beliefs". This is a strawman. Plus, "a polite voicemail"? The douchebag called him at 2AM?!?! Calling someone in the middle of the night to tell them that they won't, and tell others to not, do business with them because of the views displayed in a KZbin video... Yeah, that's a dick move. And he *always* talks shit on stupidity, which the was laden with. Sure, one could point out their disagreement with another's idea politely, but why should they if the idea is ridiculous; especially Abrahamic religions.

I agree with what the guy said, and you are probably missing out on tons of potential customers because of you dissing people for the most horse shit reasons, and also you are so so very unprofessional in how you come across. Also I find slagging off bass players really funny and I'm a bass player myself but man it does get a bit old on your channel because its all you ever do or go on about. There were no need to call that guy names and start shouting and swearing at the camera. No need for negativity man Peace (I apologise for the awful structure also but I'm wrecked)

[@oooradle597]

+SpectreSoundStudios Its unfair to make fun of someone's beliefs and say that they're god is useless and imaginary. that's bang out of order and something you should keep to yourself

[@colemusic4342]

dude I hate to get religious like i said I wouldn't in front of one of the smartest recording engineers to exist but seriously a wiccan shouldn't really care at the fact he is "Bashing" christians. Unfortunately nowadays christians on a normal basis push their religion against everybody and like we keep saying just don't watch the video if you don't like negativity just like you shown here everybody can say whatever they want also stated in the video freedom of speech. Now I could be wrong caus I am just starting out as a pagan But from what I remember you and me shouldn't even be having this conversation I shouldn't even have posted that comment for more than the reason of people like you and me should mind our own business. Why did I open my mouth may you ask Because people easily get butthurt over a video and guess what happens this back and fourth arguments in the comment section And honestly Its pretty lame most of us (not me are grown men and women and avoid something like this that would hurt their feelings but evidently people find it easier to complain cause it will change peoples minds. haha good luck pal

Christians complain about people disagreeing with their religion ... though most of you rant about other religions and call 'non-believers' idiots for believing in science and like this guy said in the video (who I admire so much haha) we are under no obligation to believe your believes.

[@TheBlackRam666]

+XBlueM0ndayX It's exceedingly easy to act polite when you're part of a majority group with a history of abusing your power. It's hard enough to get atheists to be open in public without shitheads bitching at those of us who already are for being "rude." Religious folks choose to associate with the beliefs and morals of churches known for torture, genocide, and kid fuckers (and providing protection for the same). I know who I respect more.

[@RAMMSSHADOW]

Christian bass player = ❌ Pagan bass players that change their strings on a regular basis and don't just play whole root notes under the guitar = ☑️✅

[@ZeroFighter]

Freedom of religion is not a pass to force others to respect your and believe in your religion. And as I say regarding the people of Islam, I will say it to the dumbass who called at two in the morning to complain about this channel. If your religion can't stand up to criticism, you don't need to silence the people criticizing it, you need better arguments. Otherwise, more and more people will cease their belief. Christianity is full of weak arguments with no support from facts. It is almost entirely reliant on blind, unquestioning faith, and the risk of hurt feelings as its only lines of defense.

[@jakey3906]

He wasn't forcing anyone to respect his religion. He was just asking to tone the hate down. Bashing religion is just an unnecessary thing to do, especially on the internet. We get it, your inflated egos insist on you telling anyone that disagrees with you that you're right and they're wrong. This goes for atheists mostly, religious people just get defensive for what they believe in.Of course the religious people could be the ones bashing and in that case argue about it. And hey, if you don't believe in God then good for you. Just don't join an elitist group of assholes who proclaim how right they are about something no one knows anything about. I personally don't believe in god, but I wouldn't call myself an atheist seeing that defeats the purpose of not believing in anything.

[@ZeroFighter]

This isn't a matter of ego, it's about telling these hypocrites to shut up about their magical sky daddy. They'll go on for weeks at a time to tell you why you're evil incarnate, and how the day of reckoning is nigh, but the moment you act in kind, they start screaming persecution, and demanding that you show some respect. As for being a non-believer in any of the various faiths, it's not an elitists group, it's people all across the world looking at facts and saying that yeah, the universe works just fine without any gods, so they're simply unnecessary. Not only that, but that there's far more evidence to suggest they don't exist, as opposed to the virtually non-existent evidence to suggest that they do. In the end, it all boils down to 'my book says it's true, so it has to be true.'

[@SpectreSoundStudios]

Religion deserves to be bashed at every opportunity. Asking people to accept something on faith rather than evidence is just plain dumb.

I find it hilarious when people get offended. But that's because he's Christian. Also, I too am I bass player, but I don't find your comments offensive in the slightest, I wouldn't even consider it once to be offensive, I find it funny, and better yet, I actually listen to you and take your advise, and it literally makes me a better bass player. So thank you Glenn, love your content, watched every one of your videos, and I most of all love your attitude.

[@jaxxonad619]

"I'm not whining" Doesn't that bassist know his delusion...errm... religion says it's a sin to lie? I know I'm late to this video... But hey, there's a lot more stupid happening in 2020 so I guess I stumbled across a well aged video.

[@johnpatitucci7919]

As a Christian and as a bass player I think that guy was whacked. He should grow a thicker skin and not be a coward. Calling you at 2am guarantees that Glenn won't answer the phone and demolish this idiot. And I love the joke about the strings because it's true. I haven't changed mine in 2 years...lol. But I barely play it anyway as I've evolved into more of a guitarist through the past 20 years. About being offended over the language...who cares. Just because he's a Christian he can't hold others to his standard. I'd love to sit in on Glenn's sessions. He knows what he's talking about in the studio. I could care less that he doesn't share my beliefs. I'm not there to discuss eternity...just music.

[@timothyhoster4951]

As a Bass Player I love the fun that you make of Bass Players. I have known many Bass players over the years and have found quite a few that are dead ringers for what you say. Glen as for the Christen thing is that he doesn't even understand his religion as is with many people that follow religions whether Christian, Islamic, Wiccan, Buddhist and so on. I do have to say one thing ( for all Christians out there that are butt hurt) that the 10 commandments state "thou shall not hold any god above God". Which means that God is the superior God and that there are other gods , just think of the Saints in the Catholic Church. Anyways Keep up the good work. I find you very entertaining and straight to the point.

[@FairlandFarms-NickWink]

As much as I love your videos and will continue, I think you should keep some of the topics aside from music out of the vids. Not hating and don't wanna end up like that guy, but let's keep it about the music.

[@stevenhammerle]

[@connorross6921]

I find his openess to being offensive very good and the fact he doesn’t deny what’s going on he had reason to say what he did there

[@felixnilbog4517]

Christians need to stop being so ridiculous and throwing their "i was offended" messages at people. Its 2015, more than half of the population of america is agnostic, so be prepared to have your toes stepped on now and then. Guess what? I believe in the christian faith and i have absolutely no problem with glenns thoughts about christianity/religion, he read what was there and didnt believe it, dont try and fix him, hes a free man with free thoughts.

[@Michael-qs7sz]

+Felix Nilbog your comment is exactly why I haven't lost all my faith in Christianity.

[@Mezurashii5]

Isn't this kind of stuff rather illegal? Made a shirt with someone's band name, obviously refering to that particular band. Uses someone's voice and soon personal information, pretty much surely leading to an amount of mocking. It has always seemed to me (and it seemes like my generation as well) that this is walking on thin ice since internet interactions became real basis to take legal action. And since online violence has been promoted to nearly #1 social problem in many countries ._.

[@Eluvyel]

+Mezurashii5 Sawako-sama....just....go and make some new outfits.

[@shawnsulliv]

Nope, the dude left a recording on his voicemail, it's fair game!

[@Mezurashii5]

shawn sullivan Maybe, if not that he gets revenue for using it on youtube. You have a point, but I'm pretty sure this changes a lot.

[@benmilesrocks]

I'm with Mezurashi5 on this one, this really crosses into a morally (if not legally) grey area. Especially seeing as Glen so prolifically railed against Trapt using Rob Scallon's content without permission, it does seem a little questionable. On the other hand the motives of this particular phone call were maybe not so great to begin with, but it's probably the most polite harassment call in the world. I myself have been subjected to some pretty horrendous harassment in the past, so this may be colouring my view of this; but really I think it doesn't even warrant a rebuttal. The thing that concerns me the most is that people could end up hunting this guy down and making his life miserable for the simple crime of very politely (albeit not necessarily in the best medium) stating his opinions. It seems rather hypocritical to soapbox about Christians burning heretics one minute, only to start a witch hunt with your very next breath.

[@killercour]

+Mezurashii5 As far as i know you can legally share voicemail as anyone leaving a voice message is fully aware they are being recorded. I looked up a few different legal cases etc and it seems to be legal unless you are using it as slander.

The reason why you shouldn't talk about religion,it's simply because this is a music channel,not Richard Dawkin's profile. I came here to listen about musical advices,funny topics related to music. Not an edgy atheist who repeat amateur arguments. Also,the way you express about Christianity is not the appropiate,because i can swear that if i started talking the same way about leftist and secularism,you (or a group of people) would get triggered. Actually,the biggest characters in atheism,would never act like you. So,do yourself a favor,and learn from those atheist,so that i can take you seriously.

[@johneyreguitar]

Hi, Glenn - I love your site; I find it funny, entertaining and honest! As a Christian musician, I find this guy's comments sad, self righteous and baffling. Jesus had a sense of humour - it's about time this bass player acquired one! I think he needs to dig deeper into what "the way, the truth and the life" means. It's wonderfully ironic that you show more of the characteristics Jesus preached about than the bloke who thought it was okay to call you up in the middle of the night. Thanks once again for your work and also for your rants, which for me are wholesome and thoroughly reasonable. And now, back to finishing the latest song; if it's not a masterpiece in the end, well at least I put the effort in!

Danny Ho you’re right the caller was harmless, but he was an example of a larger set of people with that ridiculous point of view. “No, I’m not going to stop bashing Christianity, and fuck you if you don’t like it. Your beliefs are stupid.” It needs to be said more often. People hide behind faith and religion as if that should exempt them from ridicule and it shouldn’t. Glen was making an example of the guy.
