The way it started I thought this was just a setup for a joke ... boy was I wrong.


BondageKitty37

It's an avant garde bit where the punchline is getting super emotional over immortal steak


wales-bloke

God doesn't do mis-steaks


BigMFingT

Did you say steak?

WhatRemainsOfJames

He tried to but mist


TherealShrew

“No, there’s been a mis-take, mistake”


MangoSea323

You seem to be mistaken, he said mis-steak. I think my aunt had a cow named that once. "Miss steak" (kidding, but she did have t-bone, forever in our hearts, and for a short time in the freezer)


TheNotBot2000

"Now you got me all excited"


ineededthistoo

Perfect.


cuchumino

well done.


woodvsmurph

I think you mean \*rare\*


TWiesengrund

I like the new season of the Eric El-Andre show.


craptain_poopy

Yeah, I watched this whole fucking thing waiting for the punchline. Then I remembered what sub I was in.


2alpha4betacells

I was expecting a lame joke and a bunch of comments that this is the wrong sub for it


fukaduk55

Thought it was just gonna be a bad punchline🤣


slymeWAV

I’m so fucking lost … can’t be starting 2023 in a state of confusion


TWiesengrund

Hey, you can and you will like the rest of us here! :)


helpful_idiott

It wasn’t a joke? Still sounded like one


Annika_Desai

Same... but its was! So funny! God blessed the meat so it wouldn't cook. Um... meat = dead animal. Um... what will happen to the meat? Will it rot? Is the meat now considered alive? Where is this magic meat? What kind of blessing means it won't be food? This sure made me laugh!


chubbyGobKing

Maybe it's now immortal and aware of it's existence along with each discarded piece of its body. Including the family who keep trying to cook a piece.


TWiesengrund

The meat has an instagram page now.


Electrical_Worker_82

@nicetomeatyou


Weak_Record_2312

And an Only Fans


TDETLES

I had that thought too, but in a way it's still kind of is a big joke.


Green-Vermicelli5244

Accurate assessment.


Stysner

You weren't wrong. This shit is an abolute joke.


LifelessTofuV2

No this is a joke. It’s just on them.


Snoo58499

I know, I thought it was going to be a “they’re just like us” moment of an old dude telling a dirty joke and his boys all pissing themselves laughing. Instead it turned into a story about Islam 🥱


ImAPixiePrincess

Same. I was waiting for a joke and something light, not some heavy existential stuff.


TWiesengrund

That should be the new go to reaction for every comedian whose jokes aren't landing. Just start crying and save your routine!


raz0rflea

This whole thing could be a sketch on I Think You Should Leave with the crying at the end


Mildf0g

I was waiting for a punchline up until he cried


TWiesengrund

I lost hope when he came up with that deus ex machina part.


Keikasey3019

Yeah, I wasn’t expecting the guy to be a literal cry track and prompt the audience to do the same


TWiesengrund

It looks a bit like some type of Alzheimer's to me. Forgetting your train of thought and getting emotional all of a sudden are very typical for that.


dream-smasher

From the looks of the last sentence that the clip finished on, he was going to tie it into having to cross a bridge over hell to get to heaven. And more than likely, that with the grace of Allah, their body would remain unchanged as they walked thru the fires of hell to then enter heaven. But, as the video finished somewhat precipitously, we won't find out.


chrisnavillus

The punchline was a man crying about his sky daddy, I thought it was quite a funny joke.


car0003

"... And now... Because of Allah..... They can't eat the meat they bought" 😭😭😭


Mr3DAlien

I honestly thought it would be a misogynistic story that would teach you, that god doesn't want man to cook and it instead has to be done by a woman... So this story was still better than what I thought it would be.


TWiesengrund

I hoped for a funny dirty joke showing us how we humans are basically all alike no matter what we believed in. But then reality happened ...


Charming-Sock5805

The aristocrats!


LickingAWindow

It's a different culture, they don't tell jokes like we do.


stalphonzo

The lesson being, after shopping, go straight home.


whatproblems

don’t bless the food apparently?


Ampora_C

That's why most people bless their food after its cooked.


geshupenst

Following his logic, wouldn't that mean the food will not be digested? I.e., it will not breakdown in the stomach into nutrients, but will retain its shape and form, and therefore the person "eating" blessed food will eventually die from starvation


steven-daniels

It would explain corn . . .


Janderflows

I heard that every corn is blessed before being sold.


wjruffing

or a lethal intestinal obstruction…


friars157

I wish after like a minute of the tears, communal silence, and over dramatic acts of sorrow, the next words out of his mouth were “I really wanted that fuckin steak, man!”


Philliam88

Bless you, i thought i had wasted time on this video but you fixed it


dinkydong74

If I were an omnipotent, omnipresent god, I too would spend time making the groceries that my followers had paid good money for, inedible


Telemere125

No one said it was inedible, only fire proof. Make steak tartare


ThisDidntAgeWell

This guy gets it. Steak can be eaten raw.


leonathotsky420

But can immortal steak be digested? Thats the *real* question here


ThePoom

You should watch these God episodes from Oats Studio. I think they might amuse you \^\^; [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1\_HfhtB5eo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1_HfhtB5eo) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4AGocVq7-w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4AGocVq7-w)


g_h_97

😂😂😂 that was definitely something loool


cuchumino

I mean, case in point, *because* he's omnipotent & omnipresent, he's got better shit to do, so kinda just applied a single AoE spell (instead of one by one) to the crowd at the mosque, and everything else that caught the effect was just splash (or collateral) damage.


Inevitable_wealth87

Muslims secretly worship Loki.


MortLightstone

This is totally something Loki would do


iShotTheShariff

Lmfao as a Muslim myself, I’m cackling.


wildtaylorberry

While giving other followers cancer and killing them in accidents and so on.


Paradox_Blobfish

I'd make their socks disappear, but only one in the pair, every once in a while, and laugh as they blame the washing machine.


tano440

I thought he was telling a joke. Such a waste.


User5228

I was so confused when he got all sad. I thought it was because his joke didn't land properly.


Maitre-de-la-Folie

It’s a running joke for thousands of years. But people didn’t understand it and made a religious out of it.


User5228

Fucking hate when you're trying to tell a joke to the boys and they turn it into religion 😮‍💨


Mil-Sim-Man

"we could make a religion out of this!" "No don't"


PaulsRedditUsername

As Billy Connolly says, this is what happens if you're stuck out in the desert for too long with no sex and only one book.


altregogh

Allahhht of bull shit.


InfectedByEli

I remember seeing a clip of Glenn Beck crying on his show because "\[He\] loves this country so much" (everyone started clapping). It's performative stagecraft for the initiated to cry along with and strengthen their belief in whatever is being sold to them.


OberainX

God spared the meat from being useful. Good thing the animal was slaughtered for nothing then.


TWiesengrund

The animal was dead but the meat was happy!


SKPY123

New from DreamWorks animation. Follow the tale of the slab of meat who just can't seem to catch a break in this brand new family film, Happy Meat!


drewskibfd

You're meant to eat meat raw, the way God intended.


TawnyTeaTowel

Presumably it would be indigestible too?


leonathotsky420

This is what I've been saying. If the meat was made to be indestructible, then stomach acid shouldn't be able to do anything to it either.


remmij

Scratching my head at the, "God showed mercy to everyone, including the meat." line.


ThunderCorg

Damn what a boring entirely fictional story


cptrelentless

Yeah, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say this didn't happen.


altregogh

He left the part out where he buried the woman up to her neck and let everyone stone her to death for not being able to cook.


Frogs4

This is every story I was subjected to in (Christian) Sunday school.


PaIngallsButSexier

"the missionaries were shot by militants but they only felt bursts of air because god made the bullets disappear. also rock music makes you gay."


ForumFluffy

That pastor probably: " That rock music makes you gay, it's why I don't listen to it anymore,I felt the strong urge to suck the dick of my best friend and stopped myself from asking him to rail me for hours in hot, sweaty and passionate gay fucking that lasted hours as our bodies melted in arnal desires of the sinful flesh... So God loves us all except the gays children remember that."


DaleGribble312

Can you please share those on the internet in long video form too? We're all waiting


Frogs4

Shall I include 5 minutes of sobbing at the end after I reveal that the punchline was "Jesus"?


PerryRubay4

"Jesus wept"


anonymous22006

Jesus better stop crying and get back to smoothing the concrete. José will have to translate because I don't speak Spanish.


llamalord478

FOR THERE WERE NO MORE WORLDS TO CONQUER


shadow1515

Just mumble something about one set of footprints in the sand through some blubbering. Good to go.


meatmechdriver

“and in the desert there was one set of footprints because sand people always ride single file to hide their numbers”


No_Employment_129

Non-religious here, raised christian, firm believer for 25 years. I don’t remember any sunday school stories, because they were all as stupid and unbelievable as the immortal meat story. If you want to see a realistic longform reenactment of these stories, watch VeggieTales. Seriously. It’s literally just stories from the bible retold using shitty CGI vegetables. Kind of an insane concept when you think about it.


d3s3rtnights

Ok, the story was strange and pointless, but the emotional reaction is exactly why I fear and distrust religious people. What the hell.


Ecstatic-Baseball-71

I love that he thinks this is like a really deep and convincing story full of meaning.


xxerse

I love stupid people trying to look wise too. The way he cries... :DDD


PistachioedVillain

While I don't believe the things he believes, I don't think this was him being disingenuous. I think this probably was a profoundly moving moment for him.


Odd-Cartoonist-288

Which is even crazier, people can convince themselves of anything. I went to a Pentecostal church growing up and I watched almost the entire church fall down on the floor and shake including kids in my family that thought the whole thing was stupid. I remember almost doing it, but I kept telling myself I wouldn't let it happen. I don't believe in this shit, but want to go back now that I'm older just to understand what is going on.


Hypogi

Was raised in a deeply Pentecostal family. It’s a cult and it’s members are brainwashed.


PistachioedVillain

I think whatever is happening mentally is the same reason hypnotism "works"


Kerrypurple

It works because they want it to work.


ForceUser128

Mass formation psychosis. No different to any other mass psychosis regardless of culture or of religion, or lack thereof. Seen it with covid, racists, every religion, woke cult, etc. You believe in something hard enough and your brain makes your body react appropriately like the shaking. Not saying epilepsy(for example) isn't a thing. It very much is, but those churchgoers obviously were not suffering from epilepsy.


Jonestown_Juice

I doubt he even believes what he's saying. These guys know how to act and the social cues- they know they're supposed to cry at the end of this knucklehead's dumb stories. If they don't, they'll be accused of not having faith and be ousted from the community. It's a scam from the top down.


PistachioedVillain

I think that's naive. There's no question that there's a lot of scamming going on in organized religion. But many of the people that buy into it, including the leaders actually do often believe what they are preaching. It's easier for you to put a motive on them following a religion, then imagine them actually believing in that religion. That's a very logical way of thinking, but not all human behaviour is logical.


Kerrypurple

I do think he was genuinely moved. Half of the men in the audience seemed to be like, "oh, are we supposed to cry now". He's the true believer but a lot of them are just going through the motions.


Loutfi96

If you fish the video, you see that it’s a metaphor about not burning in hell if your blessed or whatever. (I’m not religious so i can’t really relate to what he’s saying tho )


whocares34567

What would happen if you ate it anyway? Would you shit out raw meat? Would any parasite you got also be invincible? But you are too? So many questions


pgtvgaming

I … i don’t think you’d be able to chew it let alone digest it … i mean it’s super meat now


ThePoom

They should bless more meat and use it as armor or building resources! Think of the applications!


ThePoom

Heck, I could have my own meat pillow and it will never go bad!


Inkonotan

It'll always stay cool no matter what side your head's on


D3adSalesman

My old man can’t cook for shit, burns everything, give him the meat and, Allah or not, it’s getting cremated. Then you can stop crying.


Desperate-Spray337

The story : Husband: Where is dinner? Wife: The meat won't cook. Husband: Useless. If it won't cook in the oven cook it on the grill! (Wife irritated places meat on lit grill hoping that he chokes in this meat when it gets finished) (Meat lol nope) Wife, smuggly: See! I told you! Husband, deadpan: Wow, you are actually right... but there is still no dinner. Wife,exasterbated : But Allah made it impossible to cook! Husband, monotone: And that is not my problem. (Wife is dumbstruck by her husband's stupidity and his audacity)


Relative-Ad-87

"Exasterbated" needs a very specific definition. But fucked if I'm going to offer one in thread about Allah


Repulsive-Durian4800

Exasterbate. To masturbate as a means of coping with unsolvable frustrations.


xxerse

that concept needed a name. for sure.


SkaffAmtiskawMawhr

Example: *The wife exasterbated to raw, immortal meat in front of her husband.*


ThePoom

And then she realizes she's stuck with him because she lives in an oppressive country 🙃


igetalogiawheni

*Stones you for writing and reading*


Bi_Ass-d

I hate how trying to understand the Qur'anic scriptures with a rational mind is considered an act that will lead to apostasy, but you gotta follow the laws or traditions as written in it seriously and full heartedly. And then they try to use science to boast about how "scientific" the scriptures are as if god had to do some experiment to come up with facts or some shit.


igetalogiawheni

Studying god’s creation is only ever banned by people who know their bullshit is easily disproved Every time you perform an experiment and gather data, that’s God. That’s the Bible. If you want to talk to God, open a textbook. Read a wiki page. If you want a sermon look up an educational YouTuber. Watch Bill Nye. If you think the lord’s plan is inescapable and he has contingencies for everything you might do, then why the fuck is *admiring his handiwork* a problem?


Ok-Macaroon-7819

So many people shitting on this guy for trying to convey a very important lesson... Religion ruins everything, including dinner.

Dodger8686

So their god can't tell the difference between a steak and a human being? Also, this is 100% made up.


ThePoom

It's AI model training methods are a bit outdated.


Confident_Cat_5938

What gave it away? The meat that wouldn't cook thanks to the blessing of God, or the Muslim man who didn't punish his wife for not cooking dinner?


Burntfm

Imagine if this ridiculous story would be put down in writing like 100 years later and then people make a religion around fictional stories like this. And then go to war and slaughter people who don’t think the story was real. That would be dumb.


MichiganNerd

They're just crying because the story is so dumb, none of them can actually believe they wasted the few minutes it took to listen to it. I know this, because I have these same tears.


retardwhocantdomath

Smooth-Ostrich1514

Just shows how stupid religion can make people look.


Fishman23

I can sell you a piece of the true cross. There have been so many pieces sold that you could reforest the world with it.


peter-doubt

If they believe this, it's how religion can make people become stupid


Affectionate-Road-40

Or that to be religious you have to be stupid. Truly a trifactor of possibilities.

DaizerDaizer

Us Muslims try so hard to build our reputation then people like this ruin it with one story haha...


Other-Weakness-9177

I don't think the "story" is the biggest issue, it is the lack of context and explanation of the story. OP has issues against Islam, I reckon.


DaizerDaizer

But the story isn't plausible as well to be honest! I mean.... Wouldn't it be easier just to tell a different plausible feel good story about helping someone? There are a ton of those modern and old


senor_eggnogss

This is why I hate religion. They never question the validity of anything and accept, what is clearly garbage, as fact.


Bi_Ass-d

Imagine if there's like a natural selection for cultures and religion, perhaps rationality, or science. If it don't make sense, just fucking leave it to the older and dying generation that used to spread it. If your ideas make sense, it will be passed down through generations until better ideas come about. Imagine if scientists ruled the politics and basically the whole world, not a bunch of people with their ideas casted into stones, but instead it should be people who are ready to change their minds when faced with new informations and can adapt to new discoveries. More fluid ideas, instead of stupid and archaic beliefs stuffed into policies because there are people who I don't like for no real reasons whatsoever.


ThatCoryGuy

This type of belief, in my opinion, no matter the religion, politics or stance, this type of blind raw, thoughtless, emotional belief is a mental disorder.


BuddyJim30

I cried for the 2 minutes of my life wasted on waiting for him to make his point.


ArchiCooper

God damn! That punchline sucked.


GrouchyMango3214

You know, I can't deal with the disgustingly racist comments in this sub anymore. Shame on the mods for allowing it. I don't understand why people can't separate laughing at things, from being genuinely racist and chalking up every post on here to all Arabs and Muslims. I like Reddit. But the users here are so full of racism and hate, it's shameful.

DocBullseye

So...where is the meat now?


Redcherry42

The way he speaks makes it sound like a very deep and meaningful story, but the moral of this story is 'That god forgives all, even a slab of meat'? Luckily, it did seem like some of attendants were just as baffled as I am about this story.


sx5qn

The purpose of the story was revealed at the end. The meat was blessed not to burn over the flames of hell. It's a good story.


Bgratz1977

My interpretation, god was no fan of him and made the meat inedible to punish him


Other-Weakness-9177

That's not it, but it seems like you're mulling it over in a more sincere way than others, imo. This is a sheikh (elder/scholar) who's sharing an anecdote about a piece of meat that isn't affected by heat (and/or other forces). The "punchline" or keyword that makes this relevant is passing above hell on Judgement day. In Islam, it is taught to us that on Judgement day, all humans will pass a bridge that leads towards heaven, but passes above hell. On Judgment day, our bodies are made made stronger than our squishy human bodies. So if subjected to the fires of hell, it will hurt longer because it doesn't burn off fast like our squishy, worldly bodies. So they're crying because they're afraid of the punishment of hell. This is the spiritual deterence for committing sin.


Some_guy_am_i

Fuck! I thought there was an EPIC punchline coming! Even after he started wiping tears, I thought he was faking it to set up the punchline…


hamiltonstereotype

God doesn’t seem that smart tbh


TopRevolutionary720

The subtitle is in a black box and his robe is white. Throughout the entire video I thought he is underlining the last line of subtitle with a white line![img](emote|t5_2r5rp|8488)


hdvjufd

I just wanna know one thing. If the meat is fire-proof because it was blessed, and humans are made of meat, are the people who were in that mosque also fire-proof after that blessing? Because that is all I took away from this story: Blessing = fire-proof.


Ok_Obligation2559

4th world bullshit.


Johnsendall

One time I started grilling a piece of meat and then realized the gas had been enough to preheat the grill but now it was out. I nearly cried as well

why is it that only the most ridiculous videos that make muslims look bad go viral on here? oh also, all the islamophobic comments ofc

Grimjack-13

And…this other group has a story about a virgin having a baby. What a bunch of weirdos.


ZookeepergameGlass43

Why we making fun of religion now tho, I’m an atheist but let people live


hiddencameraspy

What about sperm in balls? Well they all never die now? Or bacterial infection, will it also become invincible? ..I think someone with AIDS got this blessing, that’s why it’s invisible..


digitalphunk

Well.... I've put my meat in the oven a few times and that didn't burn either


After_Story4040

Just makes me think if the meat is unchanged by fire, then the people present should be immortal..


Professional_Ad6123

Cool so it’s like the Middle East version of Facebook moms


Stysner

God is omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient. Blessed a piece of meat making it un-cookable by accident. Explain that atheists!


Solarhistorico

he cried while thinking: this is my life now telling this shit to this undercooked brainwashed idiots...


[deleted]

Mental illness or delusion is fine as long as you call it religion (any religion)


Icy-Spread-1184

Halfway, I thought there was a problem with the meat (like non hallal or human meat) and god wanted to prevent them to eat it and now I feel disappointed. Moral of the story : don’t bring your groceries to the mosque.

Mormons do the same thing with the story of Johnny Lingo.


lyrixnchill

I feel this. I get choked up every time I read Green Eggs and Ham.


Darkurn

I thought it was going to be a set up for a joke but it was just a religious story about a piece of meat that wouldn't cook its about as stupid as the whole virgin giving birth to a child story.


Sluibeli

I just love a good religion bullshit story.


Collin_Richards

Reminds me of the time my ex- wife tired to make chicken.cordon blue. She cooked it and cooked it and cooked it yet there was still pink (ham) in the middle 🤦‍♂️

Stupidity is still alive and kicking, on steroids and uncooked it seems.
