Man, if their god is giving people cancer for speaking out against him, I can only wonder what all of the babies and children with cancer did to God to get that punishment before the afterlife
Does seem like a forgiving, New Testament God wouldn't just toss cancer out there like a like candy from a parade float.
Now an Old Testament God... actually, seems kind of mellow for him. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hitchens, it seems likely that we won't be able to reverse this whole 'turning into a pillar of salt' thing you have going on. But we may have a new purpose for you out at the nature preserve as a bison salt lick. Yes, it will be painful as they lick away your 'flesh', as it were, and potentially everlasting since you also seem to regenerate lost portions of your mass. So you have to look forward to... Eternal damnation in your mortal form. Yep, the old Almighty must'vereally been feeling his inner Zeus when he came up with this one for you."
I didn't even have to click on your picture. I taped that quote to my binder in high school haha. I grew up in Utah, so I had to be VERY obviously Atheist.
Edit: autocorrect
I think, leading people to eternal damnation is probably a better way of viewing that situation as a Christian, rather than your typical “speaking against”. I’m no Christian, but that seems pretty easy to comprehend.
Ww literally all die. All of us die. 100% of us die. Every. Single. One!!
I started doubting before my age was in the double digita. By the time i was a teen I couldn't stand the pain of cognitive dissonance
While you’re absolutely right and I would never defend the shit stain that made this video, he wasn’t wishing cancer on Hitchens who died in 2011 from cancer (technically pneumonia but it was cancer)
I guess he was re-enacting Hitchens realizing he’d been smited by God in 2009? For some reason? Like his theory seems to be that Hitchens must have realized that God was real in that moment and he was being prevented from speaking any more.
The irony is Hitchens went on giving his passionate speeches even as he visibly succumbed to terminal illness. The man was not deterred. He was a divisive and caustic figure. Yes, he had some missteps and crossed some lines. But in his final months he gave us some astounding pearls on life and what really matters, expressed in the kind of inimitable prose only he could ever muster. That is mostly what I choose to remember.
I doubt or at least wonder if Hitchens would take hearing the news that way. Anything we know about mr bible teacher that would indicate he meant it that way though? Considering most seem to have missed the point?
Hitchens would have literally wiped his ass with this dude’s bible. Getting cancer don’t shake his faith even a tiny bit.
I don’t know how most people in this thread are taking it, but given what is known about Hitchens and when he died, I suspect that my interpretation is accurate for what this dude was trying to convey
Most seem to be taking it as mr bible teacher saying one of two things:
"God punishes those who speak out against him" (and i guess indirectly letting Hitchens know he exists)
Or
"I hope those that speak out get cancer" (this one imo also seems unlikely. I personally think it's the former)
Hitchens definitely wouldn't have been convinced though lol
Hitchens stated that his throat cancer would be a tool used by zealots to justify that it was caused by God to punish him through the tool of his infamy (his voice) and not the fact that he smoked cigarettes like the chimney of Auschwitz.
All part of gods plan, he doesn't give you more than you can handle, he wanted you/them by his side etc etc.
Or "it was the devil and his demons!!!!!"
That shit.
My grandpa was a practicing christian. His belief was a big part of who he was as a person. He died of throat cancer. Is god also smitting and silencing his own followers?
(paraphrasing) Slaves obey your masters, like women obey their husbands, like men obey the lord thy god. It's honestly hard not to think of it as a kink
I don’t have any music from that band anymore. I do have some stuff I can dig up from other projects. I’ll hit the hard drive when I’m stationary and I’ll shoot you a link.
This is fucking stupid. His message was recorded. Damage done. Chris made his point well many times over and it was all filmed.
All god achieves here is petty vindictive revenge.
Lucky god isnt real tbh. Because god would be a total bitch.
That Hitchens developed a malignant tumor on his esophagus (not his throat), then, was the natural result of too much alcohol, too many cigarettes, and unrestrained mitotic division. It didn't signify anything, least of all a deity's vengeance.
The Christian God is a cruel God and if he does exist then I wouldn't worship him.
Why doesn't he stop all suffering?
If he doesn't know about it then he's not omniscient.
If he can't then he's not omnipotent.
If he just doesn't want to because it's all "Gods plan" then he's evil.
So the all-powerful and all-knowing God could’ve shown him irrefutable proof to shut him up, but instead gave him throat cancer…starting to think God is just a dickhead.
I always thought the true god of the bible was Lucifer and “Christ” was a devil that started the coupe in heaven.
Lucifer tries to help those and make deals with them. Christ demands sacrifices and say that you have free will but will damn you for eternity for not praising him.
Hm, I thought if you were against god then Satan would leave you alone since he already has you. But instead it’s implying god gave him cancer? Sounds like satans a cooler guy who was misunderstood
Just because someone claims to be a Christian does not make them a Christian. I have a lot of respect for Christopher Hitchens, and have enjoyed watching him debate. He was intelligent, like many atheists. In fact, there are plenty of atheists that know biblical theology and history better than many Christians. I would urge my fellow Christian brothers and sisters to learn more about what they believe. Watch the debates. See both sides of the argument. Learn about the different denominations, and what they believe. Learn about atheism and why they believe what they do. Learn about other religions. Then decide for yourself, and respect when other people choose differently than you. And also, don’t forget the words of Christ himself in Matthew 7:21.
Growing up in a Christian environment, they always come up with these weird ass scenarios where they’re either the victim or the victor. Biggest one was the ‘someone comes in and asks if you believe in God, if you say yes you die if you say no you live. What do you do?!?!?” shit like that, I never understood why they were so obsessed with trying to victimize and discriminate themselves
With this logic, it’s impossible for Christian’s to get cancer, which would also mean that the cells in their body don’t multiply… which means they die :/
Man, the Christian god is one evil, vindictive mother fucker. If I as a flawed human have a better sense of morality than their god, he ain't worth dick.
"Loving God", "You disagree with my followers that I exist so I am going to kill you", "Loving God"
Pretty much all you need to understand that there are no gods or there are no loving gods so they are unworthy of your worship.
... except he didn't stop speaking, and he was still atheistic in his eventual foxhole. He was a true, stoic, and stubborn to the end. As a believer, watching and reading his stuff for years, might have seemed off - but the man had character.
Soooo this TT is saying because hitch spoke out against god, god gave him throat cancer? Gotta love that free will huh?? JFC gtfo here with this, man. What a glorious loving god!! I created you yet I don’t like how you think, though I knew you were going to speak against me, since I created you BUT here’s some throat cancer for your thoughts. Really gtfo here with that
Atheists appear to have fewer chronic conditions than theists, if he wants to play that game. Also, do something with those gnarly brows for chrissakes.
Why did Frank Zappa die from prostate cancer then?
Also, has this guy ever gone to the doctor? WHAT DOCTOR WEARS A KNIT CAP AND A DOWN COAT WHILE WORKING???
Lmao, Imaginary Sky Daddy doesn't do anything about priests of his word raping children in houses of worship dedicated to him. I really doubt he'd be bothered with doing this.
...why do children die from cancer? what 'wrong/sin' did they commit.
what part of gods plan was 'killing young children' supposed to entail? to bring loved ones together? to be thankful?
I myself am a Christian and the kind of people that make these videos are a shame to Christianity, they make us, real Christians, seem like bad people, they are only real Christians, if they respect other people not wish them bad things, even if those don’t believe in god, we, Christians should respect them as if they were our brothers, so if the people that posted this really believed in god’s word, they should be respectful to another human being that has died, even if they speak out against god, because god says that you should love everyone, regardless of who they are.
I hope you all know real Christians are not like this.
Thank you for your time and wish you a great day.
christians always seem to forget about that “love” thing. you know, how their god is supposed to care for and love everyone, is full of forgiveness and blah, blah, blah.
christians want their god to be all petty, tom petty and and fully victor vindictive.
He got cancer because he loved to smoke cigarettes.
yeah, its not an odd thing to get when you chain smoke, lolz
Very Christian of him for mocking someone who dies of cancer. Also leaves out the countless Christian deaths due to cancer
I don’t think cancer really cares what church you go to
And he was a bit of a drinker….
And drink scotch
He was a hood rat that loved smoking cigawettes with his hood rat friends.
Thank you.
Man, if their god is giving people cancer for speaking out against him, I can only wonder what all of the babies and children with cancer did to God to get that punishment before the afterlife
Or the victims of drunk drivers. If i was a christian, i'd be pretty disappointed in this apathetic god. Like, the fuck you busy doing up there?
He's busy giving random people throat cancer for hurting some snowflakes feelings. You know, normal supply side God shit.
What do you mean by “supply side"? I only know that from a vendor my company uses. I've never seen it used this way
Look up supply side Jesus it's a really good comic
You really expect to get fresh squeezed Jesus from a vendor?
Helping athletes throw balls and or kick balls or other dumb shit
Babies are selfish!

Don’t forget god killed a tonne of babies in the bible (Old Testament, natch)
God to baby born with congenital diseases "heard you were talking shit"
Check my profile pic for a great quote.
I didn't even have to click on your picture. I taped that quote to my binder in high school haha. I grew up in Utah, so I had to be VERY obviously Atheist. Edit: autocorrect
“All good god” giving people cancer for not liking him 🧐😆
“All good is when useful to me” - ☝️🤓
I think, leading people to eternal damnation is probably a better way of viewing that situation as a Christian, rather than your typical “speaking against”. I’m no Christian, but that seems pretty easy to comprehend.
Or the poor bastards born in cartel territory
Ask a creationist about malaria mosquitoes or whatever if you want to see some fantastic mental gymnastics.
Those babies were not baptized, duh
the Christian pastors and priests and clergy that sexually assault kids; is that another punishment
They only use this logic when it fits their narrative.
Ww literally all die. All of us die. 100% of us die. Every. Single. One!! I started doubting before my age was in the double digita. By the time i was a teen I couldn't stand the pain of cognitive dissonance
Yeah my doctors typically rock beanies and vests at my appointments too
They had to do something to make it look like a different guy
Wishing cancer on anyone is just disgusting
Few things are as hateful as Christian love.
religious people are usually shit people
While you’re absolutely right and I would never defend the shit stain that made this video, he wasn’t wishing cancer on Hitchens who died in 2011 from cancer (technically pneumonia but it was cancer)
But...wtf was he trying to say then? "Careful, don't speak out against us, you will suffer consequences"...?
I guess he was re-enacting Hitchens realizing he’d been smited by God in 2009? For some reason? Like his theory seems to be that Hitchens must have realized that God was real in that moment and he was being prevented from speaking any more.

Bad things happening to atheists is proof God exists, but what is it when bad things happen to believers? More proof, somehow, I'm sure.
All part of gods plan, he doesn't give you more than you can handle, he wanted you/them by his side etc etc. Or "it was the devil and his demons!!!!!" That shit.
Haven't you heard of job? He's just testing your faith. Don't worry about your dead sons, they can be replaced
"God works in mysterious ways" - 🤓
My grandpa was a practicing christian. His belief was a big part of who he was as a person. He died of throat cancer. Is god also smitting and silencing his own followers?
nothing drastically bad has happened to me just because i’m too cautious to quickly believe in an invisible seeing-all creator God.
Wait…discomfort can lead to cancer? I have discomfort in a lot of places
The tumor caused the discomfort, the discomfort didn't cause the tumor.
You mean you have cancer in a lot of places
Damn…I have back cancer
RIP
I just came here to say, "Yay. Rammstein. I like them." That is all.
I dislike that poster used their song though, can't imagine they agree with this message
Hell no they wouldn't haha. Wonder if the poster even knows who they are/what they are about.
Don't think so. At least we do!
Kinda on brand for these people really. Remember in the 80's where churches used "Relax" as a pro abstinence song? Lyrics are hard I guess.
Fair enough, I like them too
I love it when Christians show their victim kink
They really love to act like they are oppressed, y’know, cuz other religions exist and are allowed to practice it freely.
(paraphrasing) Slaves obey your masters, like women obey their husbands, like men obey the lord thy god. It's honestly hard not to think of it as a kink
I sang in a black metal band for about 3 years. I should have alll the throat cancer by this logic.
It's the power of Satan that protects your throat! But seriously, do you have a link to some tunes? I'm always looking for new metal
I don’t have any music from that band anymore. I do have some stuff I can dig up from other projects. I’ll hit the hard drive when I’m stationary and I’ll shoot you a link.
Man i know what thats like. I wish i still had the mp3s to the melodeath band i was in in high school. Hell yeah, I can't wait!
Rip Chris Hitchens
In a world where doctors wear beanies
This is fucking stupid. His message was recorded. Damage done. Chris made his point well many times over and it was all filmed. All god achieves here is petty vindictive revenge. Lucky god isnt real tbh. Because god would be a total bitch.
That Hitchens developed a malignant tumor on his esophagus (not his throat), then, was the natural result of too much alcohol, too many cigarettes, and unrestrained mitotic division. It didn't signify anything, least of all a deity's vengeance.
Exactly. This guy is basically saying that babies get cancer because they hurt a deity's feelings.
Meanwhile Putin sits un-afflicted knowing his brand of righteous anti-fascism has got the nod from the big man upstairs.
Good thing he was a prolific writer because those of us who aren’t knuckle draggers can easily pick up a book.
Not like he wrote a ton of books and people chose to invite him to discuss those or anything.
You can just tell by that guy’s face that he’s stupid
The Christian God is a cruel God and if he does exist then I wouldn't worship him. Why doesn't he stop all suffering? If he doesn't know about it then he's not omniscient. If he can't then he's not omnipotent. If he just doesn't want to because it's all "Gods plan" then he's evil.
So the all-powerful and all-knowing God could’ve shown him irrefutable proof to shut him up, but instead gave him throat cancer…starting to think God is just a dickhead.
Why did Chris look like Musk tho
I'm pretty sure he did not come to God after that, I don't know who this guy is acting like
r/wordchewing
I don’t think that’s how throat cancer works
What’s the song name ?
I got matches with these songs: • **Sonne - Slowed+Reverb** by Kausak (05:21; matched: `100%`) **Released on** 2023-07-08. • **Sonne - Slowed+Reverb** by SamX (05:21; matched: `100%`) **Released on** 2023-07-28. • **ruhum hayatımdan yoruldu** by Klaus (01:51; matched: `90%`) **Released on** 2023-09-30.
Good bot
If he doesn't start wearing his hat correctly he might be at risk to develop skin cancer
Tell em Jesus.
God taking credit for Joe Camel’s work
I dont understand this mindset. So lets say a god exists, why does that automatically mean it is your religion's god?
This is a sin against Rammstein
I always thought the true god of the bible was Lucifer and “Christ” was a devil that started the coupe in heaven. Lucifer tries to help those and make deals with them. Christ demands sacrifices and say that you have free will but will damn you for eternity for not praising him.
Damn, canceling someone's ability to speak because he hurt your feeling? Sounds like god is a fascist prick.
so, cancer is a punitive device given by their God to people who arent christians?
Is this supposed to make God look good or?
Mocking a man who died of esophageal cancer is a way a guy named “the.bible.teacher” demonstrates he’s a “good God-honoring Christian.” Got it.
Hm, I thought if you were against god then Satan would leave you alone since he already has you. But instead it’s implying god gave him cancer? Sounds like satans a cooler guy who was misunderstood
Having a Rammestein song over this is a bold move
Why is his “doctor outfit” just a hipster in a beanie and glasses? I would get a second opinion.
lol, I thought the same thing. Maybe this guy’s “doctor” dresses like that?
He needs to get a 2nd opinion. His doctor looks like a truck driver.
Remember, good Christians turn the other cheek whilst wishing you get throat cancer. Amen 🙏
Just because someone claims to be a Christian does not make them a Christian. I have a lot of respect for Christopher Hitchens, and have enjoyed watching him debate. He was intelligent, like many atheists. In fact, there are plenty of atheists that know biblical theology and history better than many Christians.

Then decide for yourself, and respect when other people choose differently than you. And also, don’t forget the words of Christ himself in Matthew 7:21.
If I ever go to see a doctor and they’re wearing a baby diarrhoea coloured bubble jacket with matching beanie, I’m leaving.
Like a good Christian, wish cancer upon thy neighbour
Growing up in a Christian environment, they always come up with these weird ass scenarios where they’re either the victim or the victor. Biggest one was the ‘someone comes in and asks if you believe in God, if you say yes you die if you say no you live. What do you do?!?!?” shit like that, I never understood why they were so obsessed with trying to victimize and discriminate themselves
What a generous god. Pray or he will give you cancer. But he’s gonna do that anyway. Cancer and hell. Yehawww
Oh shit that's why kids get cancer. Very educational.
Why is the doctor wearing a beanie
Lol okay, what about all of the devout Christians that get all sorts of cancer? Religion is fucking poison.
Christians are such loving people, especially when they fantasize about people getting cancer just because they don’t have the same beliefs.
Based, god is a throat goat.
With this logic, it’s impossible for Christian’s to get cancer, which would also mean that the cells in their body don’t multiply… which means they die :/
Man, the Christian god is one evil, vindictive mother fucker. If I as a flawed human have a better sense of morality than their god, he ain't worth dick.
My dad was a devout Catholic and he died of cancer. This idiot tiktoker can take a swan dive into a wood chipper.
"Loving God", "You disagree with my followers that I exist so I am going to kill you", "Loving God" Pretty much all you need to understand that there are no gods or there are no loving gods so they are unworthy of your worship.
Amazing that no Christians ever get cancer
Boy bye!
Lol cancer good if you bad! Horrible way to think
I ain't listening to a damn thing a doctor in a beanie and a puffy jacket says
Anyone who talks crazy is crazy. They don't represent anything but their craziness.
... except he didn't stop speaking, and he was still atheistic in his eventual foxhole. He was a true, stoic, and stubborn to the end. As a believer, watching and reading his stuff for years, might have seemed off - but the man had character.
God doesn’t show himself and then gives cancer to those who speak out against him. And you worship this dude?
God has struck him mute? I guess it’s a whooosh for me.
These type of tik toks are just blasphemy in my opinion. 🤷🏻♀️
What's it look like doc? Oh snap dog, you got cancer fr fr
Ah yes, Rammstein as a famously God-fearing and chaste band has the perfect background music for Christian TikToks lol
Nice story, only he kept speaking against and criticizing religion until his death. Fucking Legend, RIP.
Why’s the doctor dressed like a snowboarder
Imma be honest here, you can’t be saying that god is the most merciful being and then make TikTok’s about god giving people throat cancer
I definitely wouldn't trust that doctor...he looks ready to go shred powder and double fist small batch IPAs.
Christopher Hitchens is the GOAT.
I am risen.
Soooo this TT is saying because hitch spoke out against god, god gave him throat cancer? Gotta love that free will huh?? JFC gtfo here with this, man. What a glorious loving god!! I created you yet I don’t like how you think, though I knew you were going to speak against me, since I created you BUT here’s some throat cancer for your thoughts. Really gtfo here with that
It wasn't throat cancer but cancer of the gullet and he had no problems talking in fact he had his last public appearance 2 months before he died.
He's not bothered about the cancer he's just confused as to why the Doctor is dressed up for hiking
Why did this tool give the doctor a beanie? Lol
Ah the if we can't convert em, kill em off plot. The gods not dead approach if you will.
God did that thi
Everyone talking about the cancer but who tf has ever seen an “atheist speaker” who just goes around to events and talks about how god isn’t real?
Atheists appear to have fewer chronic conditions than theists, if he wants to play that game. Also, do something with those gnarly brows for chrissakes.
Why did Frank Zappa die from prostate cancer then? Also, has this guy ever gone to the doctor? WHAT DOCTOR WEARS A KNIT CAP AND A DOWN COAT WHILE WORKING???
Bible God killed everyone except the Moseses/animals. And apparently he’s planning to do it again ya damn heathens.
Then he gets ya!
idk who C. Hitchens is, but when people give speeches, they may tend to shout, and well, excessive shouting can cause throat cancer.
This is plot from God Is Not Dead in a nutshell lmfao. I cant believe I had to watch that garbage ass movie. It was soooo bad lol!
I miss Christopher Hitchens
Sonne as a song choice... Interesting...
Whenever i see a tiktok icon symbol right away.. I know i should prepare for the cringe
the rammstein playing behind this is so funny
Meth?
Lmao, Imaginary Sky Daddy doesn't do anything about priests of his word raping children in houses of worship dedicated to him. I really doubt he'd be bothered with doing this.
The children’s cancer ward is full of atheists I guess. If only their parents believed in LRH I mean Jesus
That's not how any of this works.
And yet he gave speeches and debates until like the last two months of his life.
Christians when people have different beliefs
Christian’s can travel across the world spreading their religious beliefs to others but God forbid someone with an opposing opinion do the same
Now that’s a professional looking doctor if I ever saw one!
...why do children die from cancer? what 'wrong/sin' did they commit. what part of gods plan was 'killing young children' supposed to entail? to bring loved ones together? to be thankful?
Love that theists think that their god is the good guy for this. Oh this guy has valid reasons I’m an asshole? Throat cancer.
So his rebuttal is wishing cancer on someone? Lmao wowzers
Some Christians are so unchristian.
WRONG it was ME making his throat feel weird!!!!
That’s his version of a doctor? A tree logger? Lolz
I myself am a Christian and the kind of people that make these videos are a shame to Christianity, they make us, real Christians, seem like bad people, they are only real Christians, if they respect other people not wish them bad things, even if those don’t believe in god, we, Christians should respect them as if they were our brothers, so if the people that posted this really believed in god’s word, they should be respectful to another human being that has died, even if they speak out against god, because god says that you should love everyone, regardless of who they are. I hope you all know real Christians are not like this. Thank you for your time and wish you a great day.
So apparently someone expressing their beliefs is enough reason for god to give someone cancer?
OMG THIS ISNT SATIRE?
People like this give a horrible name to Christians, I hope he isn’t Catholic lol
"Dear god of love and turning the other cheek. Please punish my perceived enemies." Great believers
There's no hate like Christian love.
So fantasizing what it would be like if God was real......
The definition of vacuous
christians always seem to forget about that “love” thing. you know, how their god is supposed to care for and love everyone, is full of forgiveness and blah, blah, blah. christians want their god to be all petty, tom petty and and fully victor vindictive.
God gives you cancer guys.
Wait which magical sky daddy? Which version?
Religion only works on fearful simpletons. People who crave power wield it to control said simpletons.
