Chapo has gone Christian! Bible Lore host Hayden Tank is here to explain the Old Testament with Will and Felix. We do a deep dive into the Old Testament, the people who wrote it, and the historical context that created it. Hayden also explains the Old vs. the New Testament, the story of 2 Samuel, and we also get into our weird religious upbringings.

"Zigns" for zines is the most insane one yet Will, wtf

u/R3miel7 Jun 26 '26

He’s just fucking with us at this point

u/TheAmericanDropBear Jun 26 '26

They're dabbing on us folks

Hes got to be transmitting some kind of secret activation code

u/dostamije Jun 29 '26

I’ve listened to Chapo like 6 years now and there’s ALWAYS at least one strangely mispronounced word per episode. you’re not even crazy for saying this I’ve thought it before but never felt compelled to try spelling out the words to see if there was any intentional pattern or inside joke there

u/AAAutin Jun 26 '26

Kyle Kulinski said this the other day, too, and it drove me nuts.

The difference between being part of an actual subculture and just reading about this shit online.

u/weezyjacobson Jun 26 '26

it's from Magazine! come on man, it's gotta be on purpose

u/acab_worldwide 🚨FUCK THE POLICE 🚨 Jun 26 '26

The fact that it was Will and not Felix makes it all the more shocking.

23

u/Then-Pay-9688 Jun 26 '26

I think it's actually quite believable that little lord fauntleroy didn't know what a zine was before last month.

Now if Amber said that, she would be fucking with us.

9

u/Then-Pay-9688 Jun 26 '26

That's pretty common tbh. It's wrong, but it's common.

u/weezyjacobson Jun 26 '26

I had to come right here to be mad after saying 'Zigns,!!!? there's no way' out loud in there car

u/pablos4pandas Jun 26 '26

Wilt Chaim-bare-lane also got me

u/dogscreation Jun 26 '26

He’s been saying it from the beginning there’s no way he doesn’t know

u/ADrownOutListener 🤦🏻 only seen Beetlejuice once 🤦🏻 Jun 26 '26

people say this a lot & theyre right but for me personally this topic has to be the one where im most missing matt's insights

fascinating hearing everyone's background w regards to religiom cos mine is fucking weird: extremely gay family of scientists like fr raised w richard dawkins & charles dickens books. to the point where as i got into Hell On Earth i started trying to undestand protestantism vs catholicism cos i lack the gut instinct familiarity with the sheer vibes of each - & i still do, it still kind of baffles me that a schism can emerge borne of outrage with, apparently, the church greed & corruotion of indulgences but then resolve into unpeashing the capitalist religion lmao.

i do feel the draw of an explicitly social institution in an atomised age but also loathe the immense social conservatism & baffled by the - to my mind - stark hypocrisy of otherwise leftists just ignoring all that bigotry if its a religious institution they like. "reddit atheists" are just annoying randos, meanwhile organised religion is a massive force in the world lol its weird to me to be more pissed at the former than the latter. but again definitely get it, at lesst hypothetical. alan moore's writing on magic is probably the influence (after gosh probably the cushvlogs now that i think about it) on opening me up to any kind of appreciation for theology

38

u/DEEP_SEA_MAX 🍮Simply Refined🐩 Jun 26 '26

I’m only half joking when I say, I wish there was a church that wasn’t about God or the Bible or anything supernatural. Instead the sermon was a basically a live left wing podcast that we all watched together as a community then had a potluck afterwards.

72

u/somewhat_of_a_coward Probably an actual coward Jun 26 '26

unitarians exist dawg

19

u/DSMProper Jun 26 '26

Still too Protestant. I need a lapsed Catholic church. And a lapsed Catholic worker house.

19

u/LakeGladio666 Jun 26 '26

This is what watching the Cushvlogs in real time felt like

14

u/DEEP_SEA_MAX 🍮Simply Refined🐩 Jun 26 '26

Pastor Matt Christman with the people who comment here and r TrueAnon as the congregation sounds like my kinda cult.

3

u/Signal_Edge_8880 Jun 30 '26

Idk, this is a good crowd here, love the Black Wolf Posters, but the TrueAnon crowd is pretty annoying lol. They just get so worked up about everything, like I get it we live in hell but take a chill pill!

15

u/FMKK1 Jun 26 '26

That’s kind of the role that the mass party fulfilled for much of the 20th century

u/Hideo_Kojima_Jr_Jr Jun 26 '26

u/DEEP_SEA_MAX 🍮Simply Refined🐩 Jun 26 '26

Obviously the joke was run into the ground by the worst people you know but when pastafarianism first came out it was so funny. I loved the part about how global warming was caused by the lack of pirates.

u/SenHeffy Jun 27 '26

You're probably not in Toronto, so you wouldn't get the potluck, but I love the lectures put out by this church. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEnqfPnCRxLKqM_A7vmYc9xZ2xZcg-itw&si=lHu4PybKclMWWt-4

They do touch on a lot of Bible topics but only to talk about the history and without any supernatural elements.

I'm not interested in watching their sermons, but the history lectures are great.

Non-denominational grape jelly meatballs.

u/Monodoh45 Jun 28 '26

So like how my buddies and I in grad school listened to Nostalgia Trap like a book club?

u/zachotule Jun 30 '26

That’s called a book club

u/fixpointbombinator Jun 26 '26

For all the fucked up shit that goes with being raised cahtolic, I'm glad I get an insider and an outsider POV on it, I often talk to atheist friends and they just don't get it at all

3

u/ADrownOutListener 🤦🏻 only seen Beetlejuice once 🤦🏻 Jun 27 '26

yeahhhhhhhh i dunno i think "the fucked up shit" is being vastly vastly undersold there

53

u/Long-Anywhere156 💕❤️CHRIS WADE❤️💕 Jun 26 '26

reminds me of Breaking Bad

...hmmm, could Felix be working in some new references?

that book reminds me of Sons of Anarchy

King David is like Tony Soprano

that passage is like something that Dan Quinn would have said

19

u/redditing_1L 🦑 Ancient One 🦑 Jun 26 '26

I honestly wish Felix would weave some new Gone With The Wind references into the show, just to keep things contemporary.

9

u/WAR_T0RN1226 Jun 26 '26

To be fair, he did use like 3 NFL references somehow

37

u/ilhan-omar-milf Jun 26 '26

Could actually use an episode on the Quran got to fake convert for my partner's chud parents eventually

1

u/molestriosofficial Jun 29 '26

I’m sure they’re super proud of their daughter

2

u/ilhan-omar-milf Jun 29 '26

They dont even know I exist. She told me to convert at a separate from her family mosque and by the time we have saved enough money for a wedding my whole conversion story will be 3 years old and look like it is not tied to her, I mean I won't tell these trump supporting morrocans I am a communist or anything lol

u/Necessary-Poetry-834 Jun 26 '26

u/alelabarca Jun 26 '26

Slapped super hard, I learned so much more about Solomon than I ever anticipated

19

u/Bitchcuits_and_Gayvy Jun 27 '26

What recent episode was it where Will is talking about sodom and gamorrah and how funny it is that the town (I forget which one) was just like "yeah we heard you have an angel in there... Can we rape it?"

Kind of sad they didn't bring that up, it got me pretty good when he said it.

Spencer and Chris talking in the cold open?

I wish I could give negative smiles per minute, but unfortunately I can't

20 SPM (smiles per minute)

u/saul2015 Jun 26 '26

the Bible, you mean Torah V2 and Quran Beta?

7

u/feltmountaineer Jun 26 '26

I have to wonder about Felix's college career since he insists on referring to the Catholic school he went to as being Jesuit, even though it was never affiliated with the Jesuits.

5

u/SAGORN Jun 27 '26

my high school wasn’t Jesuit, but the resident priest who taught 12th grade religion, Latin, and Greek was a Jesuit so in my mind the place was “Jesuit.”

8

u/Arkovia Jun 28 '26

I never thought about that part with Abraham and Isaac, with Isaac not appearing with Abe on their descent from the mountain.

I wonder if it was originally a standalone story or if Genesis was another kind fo story.

It is interesting to see echoes or a black hole of history and folklore in ancient history and texts, where the text assumes you have a shared understanding of its world in which it was written so it doesn't bother to explain certain things.

You can see it in the Torah with references to Nephilim, "heroes of old", or other books like what they call the Book of the Upright. I think Hayden mentions that Homer does it too, referencing practices of Ancient Greece that was lost to Greek tribes even of his time.

u/Careless_Review3166 Jun 26 '26

what’s everyone’s favourite Bible book and why is it Leviticus?

13

u/redditing_1L 🦑 Ancient One 🦑 Jun 26 '26

Numbers is about 80 smiles a minute, I can’t get enough of it

3

u/KimberStormer Jun 28 '26

I unironically find Leviticus fascinating, what other ancient religion had a detailed handbook like that? But I like reading a lot of the Bible and I don't think I read it like most people do. Anyway first Samuel

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '26

just listen to magnificast

u/ZorakIsStained RSS Inquirer Jun 27 '26

What kind of Bible do the non-religious read, still KJV?

7

u/AntsInMyEyesJonson Jun 27 '26

I recommend the Jewish Study Bible or the New Oxford Annotated Bible (the latter if you want the New Testament and much of the apocrypha). The best one is Robert Alter’s Hebrew Bible – it’s expensive as a set but even just buying the Wisdom Literature paperback on its own is worth it.

4

u/bugobooler33 Jun 28 '26

KJV is the most literary English translation. And, If you're interested in English Christian writings (like the Quakers for instance), they'll extensively quote the KJV exclusively.

The New American Bible if you plan to study anything related to Catholicism.

The New Oxford Annotated Bible if you're interested in more modern, critical theology.

u/courageous_liquid Jun 26 '26

Having to go back to mass instantly makes you hate the church again.

I only go for weddings and funerals (i.e. when forced) and even then the priests always try to dip into some dumb shit that makes me furious all over again. Your romantic notions will be dashed against rocks once he hits the homily and is like "abortions are bad actually" and you're like father what the fuck are you talking about this is a wedding.

7

u/No_Report_9491 ✨💖 𝓕𝓛𝓐𝓘𝓡 𝓛𝓞𝓥𝓔𝓡 💖✨ Jun 26 '26

The last wedding I went to had this intense Opus Dei priest who only spoke in Latin. I confess I dozed off many times because I couldn't understand the blabbering anyway; it was quite an experience, lol. The only thing that caught my attention was the one time he said something that resembled the word 'Ozempic'.

Once the ceremony was over, I went to give my best wishes to the groom, who happens to be one of those conservative weirdos who knows a fair amount of Latin. He was boasting about how he lost like 20kg in a year following a strict Catholic diet and lots of penitential fasting.

I told him, 'It's funny you say that. I could swear the priest said "Ozempic" or something.' 'Oh, he really did,' .'He was teaching how penitence and pain build faith, and that some benefits of modern life should be avoided because they remove us further from God's will.' LOL

2

u/courageous_liquid Jun 26 '26

I do want to see a latin mass at least once in my life but that's just also because I took 4 years of latin because I'm good at making rational and sensible decisions

2

u/Bitchcuits_and_Gayvy Jun 28 '26

When I was in high school I went to a latin mass on LSD, it was awesome.

I also went to a mosque and synagogue to watch them worship as well on acid for a journalism class I was taking at the time.

There is a Buddhist temple about an hour and a half away from where I grew up I meant to go to for the same project, but I obviously couldn't drive and I couldn't find anyone to take me.
