Was I Wrong About Hazbin Hotel? 

Hazbin Hotel is actually one of the best shows I’ve seen this year, funny enough. A great show about evil in the world being redeemable, and good in the world being corruptible.

I have major respect for you actually watching the show before judging it.

Fun fact: The series loosely follows bishop Peters Binsfeld's classification of demons. This means that Lucifer and Satan are seperate entities in this series. Basically the series (and its spin-off series Helluva Boss) follows the concept of the Seven Dealy Sins with Lucifer (the ruler of Hell as a whole) representing pride and Satan representing wrath. From the six episodes of Hazbin Hotel alone this isn't made clear - except from some tiny little hints that most people won't get if they do not already know about it.

Though I disagree on if someone should or should watch Hazbin, I can respect you for taking time to make this response and taking a deeper look into this show before completing writing it off like many others have. I very much enjoyed the show and story. I'm excited for season two.

This is the nicest Christian that covered Hazbin Hotel💀

I consider myself a christian with all my heart, but I admit, when I see other christian's commenting about things like Hazbin Hotel I normally get worried, seeing that most don't even give such things the time of day. But upon watching the video I do admire that you give it the full understanding. you take this thing most others would scoff at and try to put an actual christian understanding onto it. so great video

"Masquerade" is such a good episode and is still my favorite episode for Season 1 due to focusing on one character and having the best pacing.

@darkalicornkingdoom3572 just pointed out that there are new episodes I haven't seen! Sorry about that, everyone.If anyone would like me to make more videos on this season, I'm happy to, but I'm also happy to bow out of Hazbin Hotel discussion if they're not wanted. Genuinely content either way. I'm glad you were here! Cheers. Nate x

Did you really watch the whole show? I though you were gonna addressed the sinner that die trying to save his friends and then reach heaven

An important thing to note: Hazbin's premise is based on a variety of Abrahamic canons, Apocrypha, and the Lesser Key of Solomon. It's not just Christianity. I say this because it's important to not conflate Lucifer's role in the bible as the Devil (something, by the way, theologists have debated for centuries. Lucifer is mentioned once and it's unclear if the name refers to Jesus or the Devil and none have a clear answer on that. Many scholars, however, DO note that it may be a translation error) with Lucifer being one of God's angels in the Jewish canon. He acts as humanities prosecutor, their accuser, to ensure their faith is strong. I love the way you articulate your points, though. You've got yourself a new subscriber.

Going to say this now Lucifer and Satin are two separate characters in the show

I think you missed on the heaven point, heaven isnt depicted as debauchery, aside from Adam, everyone there was just happy and glowing and its not that they want to change the standard of what it takes to get to heaven, Angel checked all of their standards on how to get to heaven in the context of the show. As an atheist myself idc if they go off script from the bible, if you want to make a show that sympathizes or shows Lucifer in a good light I can find it interesting that just him being the big bad again

I really appreciate you following up on Hazbin!

so, I want to make a video regarding my own opinions on it, but I honestly don't think I could. But basically, here's how I see the message of Hazbin Hotel, and how it applies to non-Christians, and the various beliefs of Christians themselves Hell and its Sinners are a representation of those who are already judged by society. People who grew up in bad neighborhoods or in countries with different religions, people who have gone to prison, addicts, etc. But, despite their past, there are some of them who genuinely regret past actions or genuinely want to change their beliefs. Then you have their friends (i.e. Cherri Bomb) who are bad influences on them and try to keep them from doing such, or people who don't want to change (the Vees) and instead use it to their advantage to try to gain more power and influence and money (gangs, cartels) Heaven and its Angels are a representation of Christians. You have the Christians like Emily who are genuinely good people, who don't judge Sinners, and actively want to bring them into the love and caring side of Christianity, no matter their past, so long as they are actively showing they want redemption. You have pastors like Sera, who don't voice their opinions, but have an opposition towards Sinners and their past, and indirectly attack them through their message while trying to keep a good image to all Christians. Then you have those Christians like Adam, who believe they can act like they want, because they believe that so long as they accept Jesus, they can act with blatant disdain and judgment against Sinners, condemning them to Hell instead of showing love and kindness to them, no matter what their beliefs are. In their eyes, they're all the same, whether or not they want redemption That's why you have Christians like me who watch the show, the ones who don't force people into their beliefs, who are openly supportive to those who come up to them, saying they want to be accept into Christianity. I've seen so many people say they're Christians and can't help but to love this show but then you have the vocal Christians like Adam who are actively taking a stand, making a preconceived notion of the show, that even as they watch it, and are seeing this message, are angry about it and are not listening to the message, saying it's a concept of "Heaven bad, Hell good" when the show never shows Hell as a good place. It's a place of cannibals, sexual deviants, murderers, rapists who will actively attack a place of redemption. Heaven is shown as a beautiful, happy place where everyone is perfect and beautiful, and happy. They get angry at Lucifer being represented as a character you should pity when Lucifer is a representation of Christians who tried to see the good that God, Jesus and Christians can bring to the world. But, like so many Christians, he gave up. So many Christians lose faith because of the hate and judgment other Christians bring. And often times, they still believe in the message. But, they believe they're fighting a losing battle alone, not seeing the good in either Sinners or Angels, so they just give up. But, again, Christians are getting angry that Lucifer is being depicted as good instead of seeing the message Those Christians are feeling CONVICTION. They are being called out and they don't like it, so they refuse to listen to the message and only respond with more and more hate. Meanwhile, you have the Christians who want to love the show, they are hearing the message, but they're too scared to speak up in fear of being judged by those Christians, when so many of those Christians are sending messages of hate, calling anyone who loves the show Satanists, and condemning them all to Hell again another thing I should add, that despite Lucifer giving up in this, and seeing the bad in both sides, it also shows that he can see the good among Sinners. He was one of them for so long, but never interacted with them. It wasn't until he met them and saw what Charlie was trying to do that he realized there can be good among Sinners and finds himself accepting he's one of them, but also believes they should have a chance at redemption Angel Dust and Sir Pentious are perfect examples of people who want to be Christians Sir Pentious doesn't believe he should be redeemed for the actions he's made in the past and people he's hurt, similar to people who have committed crimes or are in jail. Charlie can be seen as those pastors who actively go into prisons, and tell them they can be redeemed, if they are genuinely apologetic and regretful for past actions, Sir Pentious representing criminals who are freed from prison who do make a good life for themselves and find a place among other Christians with Charlie's help (the pastor bringing them into an accepting church) Angel Dust is someone who does want to be redeemed, but still deals with addiction that is constantly trying to pull him back (Valentino), and is trying to balance both his redemption and his sinful activity. He's still trying to be freed of his addiction, so he isn't quite ready for redemption. But he's still trying, even if it'll take longer for him to let go of it, only finding true redemption once he's freed of Valentino and his drug addiction I think that instead of actively recommending people from the show, Christians should be encouraging others to watch it. There is a message there for all of us. There is someone representing all of us. And many of those Christians may not like who they are seen as. THAT'S THE POINT. Christians are actively driving so many potential Christians or already saved Christians (like me) away from the faith and forgiveness of Jesus Christ. We need to be better and stop using hate and judgment to hide the love of Jesus Christ Lucifer is my favorite character and it isn't until now that it's because I relate to Lucifer in my description of him because of this. I am surrounded by Adams and Seras, and that hate is draining and disappointing. It makes me want to cry. And I just wish I could convince those who are like them to please just watch the show and actually LISTEN to its message because I am just so tired of it. I don't feel like I'm a Christian anymore, but I haven't let go of Jesus Christ either, so I don't feel like a Sinner either. I'm inbetween and I just want to finally be apart of the love of Jesus Christ among a congregation of Emilys

Three things that would've made this show much more paletable for christians. 1. Make the setting in the purgatory or at least at the very fringe almost separate part of hell. 2. Make Lucifer much more grey in his morality instead of simply being depressed. 3. Make the angels a lot more hesitant in exterminating. And see the extermination plainly as a duty rather than entertainment (except for Adam and Lute).

I could have a beer with this guy. He's not a sycophant.

You didn't address the final episode in which Sir Pentious (a sinner) was redeemed and sent to heaven proving that redemption is possible. Rightious justice as we see in the show is not fair, it is not merciful andin my opinion it is a metaphor for rich, manipulative 'church' leaders that con their flock, using the word of their 'god' for their own selfish reasons. Adam is the personifucation of this, he uses his heavenly title to bring his wrath down on charlie even as she embodies more mercy and compassion than him. No church leader should be rich - all their money they do not need to live on should be going to the poor and needy. Is that not what 'jesus' would do? The show is about forgivness, redemption and reform and about how there is good in even the worst of us. A seggs/substance addict turning away pleasures. A violent gang leader (Sir pentious) choosing instead to protect those he loves and stop senseless slaughter. I do not see how a christian can be against that. No christian has ever prayed for lucifer to be forgiven or redeemed despite the fact of all the beings 'god' has created, he is the one that needed 'gods' forgivness most. I find that rather hypocritical.

Thank you for following up on HH💫❤️ A lot of people I’ve seen that reviewed hazbin based it off the prologue- or only the overture. i agree that stories give us a sense of relatability, and it does influence us for sure. However, as a Christian myself, personally I loved the show a lot. The songs tell meaningful messages, and a lot of the characters are pretty relatable as well. But yeah I definitely saw many nods especially with the cue cards. Though they are talking about redemption, and that as the base makes sense. Also. Not everyone from the fandom drinks- not everyone in the fandom is screwed up. enjoy it not for the setting, but the ideas they go through on a basic level. They never mentioned God either, and went for a devils don’t fly ideal. But your points were logical, and I get where you are coming from.

I’m pretty sure Hazbin Hotel is the Disney’s Hercules to Christianity Modifying different points to entertain those who do not believe in the religion for their entertainment while not fully disrespecting the religions that they took point of the mythos from

I think this show subverts Lucifer being, well, Lucifer is by making him more like Prometheus than literally Satan in her interpretation of the mythos. Personally I find it uncomfortable at points but I'm not opposed to it, and I find it to be a good attempt to defuse that bomb of painting the character of actually Satan in a sympathetic light. As an Orthodox Christian, I also believe Jesus literally descended into and destroyed the gates of hell at Pascha (Easter) and brought up the sinners who lived righteous lives before Christ up into heaven, a not terribly dissimilar concept to the show. Really it's edgy Newgrounds stuff, but to me it doesn't have an awful premise at all.

I agree. I personally love the show and I am Christian. I wish they went a more Christian root but I do love the story of being able to change for the better. Yay Jesus.

While I am a Christian, I did enjoy the music. Also, I am hopeful of the future of this show. I believe they can save this show through a better understanding of Christianity. A couple questions to note about this show... 1.Why is Heaven in Hell's Shy? 2. Where are the Arch Angels like Michael? 3.If Hell is supposed to be devoid of God's Gifts like Love and Life, How is there Hell-born? 4.What if Lilth (and/or Lucifer) lied to Charile about the beginning? 5.What if the solution to dead sinners redemption is the Final Judement that happen in Revelation?

I’m mean no offense but it’s so funny to see someone take this so seriously as i’ve only seen people review it from the perspective of someone wanting to be entertained and like this, good on you for knowing all of this information but I think you missed the point a little

I completely understand your point, and I think that discussing this topic could even make some viewers' interest in Catholicism. Therefore, I respect your view. However, I also perceive that some individuals who are overreacting and calling for this to be banned are similar to over-aggressive Muslims who express their anger towards those who depict Mohammed.

The show is amazingly well written and uses a very common film and literary technique to force us to think about what we believe. Flip the script. Hell is horrific and the people are deeply messed up, but it turns out many are willing to work for something better and to EARN it the hard way. And it turns out those running heaven are jerks. It forces us to consider what redemption, forgiveness, and love actually mean. Not just something passive, but the ACTIVE ACTS of those things. It starts with sorry covers a lot of Christian belief about forgiveness in a very simple song. Angel is an incredibly tragic character. Knows what he is doing is harmful, but uses it to bury other pain. Wishes he could get out and stop butbhas nothing else to live for. Constantly being told negatives about himself. Pure bravado masking his complete depression, misery, and self hatred. He just shuts himself off emotionally until he is alone when he sobs knowing full well how messed up he is. How many of us do exactly this. Do we deserve forgiveness and redemption? Love? The show really handles some really important concepts, Christian or not.

I just wanna say thank you… not a lot of people actually do what you said and watch the show… I don’t blame you for not liking it we each have preferences. And you admit you judged it before watching. But at least you watched it and looped back around… negative reviews are always expected it’s the Ill informed that suck… even someone like me that likes the show admits it has flaws and hits subjects that are abit touchy. And being that it focuses mostly on Christian lore (yes there are other religions shown slightly) for a Christian to watch it and give a negative review is waaay better than one that just reads the bio and opening scene and judges it. A+ review

So disclaimer, I'm a Methodist and have an incredible relationship with our God and our messiah, Jesus Christ. The very first thought I had whenever Charlie reached Heaven was, "Ah. So this is what a GODLESS Heaven looks like...I hate it." That being said, I think that God's omittance from the show's cast was the point. This felt somewhat like a purely Angels vs Demons world (a la the Diablo franchise), and I think that was the smart way to go about it. Not only does that leave room for error on the part of Heaven and the angels, since even in the book of Enoch (which yes I know is not Biblically canon even though it's referenced by official canonical scripture) the Watchers sinned and contributed to the downfall of the world and was a reason for the great flood, but this at least creates an out for this admittedly asinine conflict. I do disagree for how utterly sympathetic they made Lucifer (Satan is explicitely a different character in this universe, the ruler of the ring of Wrath), but I do feel that overall it's typical. The reason this show is creating such a stir is due to the fact that it's largely a rags to riches story for the creator, starting on youtube by creating a full 30 minute pilot and getting it picked up by major studios and turning it into a phenomenon, not just the inaccuracies to Biblical scripture. But like you pointed out with Paradise Lost, I feel that it still runs in the same vein as that book. It's not trying to actively reframe the actual story so much as borrow directly from it while still keeping to that edgy 2000's deviantart personality that Vivienne Medrano got her start from. One way or another, as it is written, what will be will be. People's souls are in their keeping alone, and I don't feel like this show is somehow serving the interests of actual Satan.

Okay so two things; First, thanks for coming back and re-examining the show with more context - it's good that you're principled enough to do that. Second, you seem to hinge most of your arguments about Charlie's version of redemption on Angel Dust, but that's not the lesson his episode was trying to teach us. It's not about Angel doing different things or being a better person, it was showing that his behavior was that way because he'd lost hope for anything better, and was hiding there in the sex and drugs, hoping he'd eventually break and get out of the hell he thought he was trapped in. Husk let him know that he wasn't alone in both reality and emotionally, and that while Angel's vices were fine if he needed them to survive, he had someone there by his side to support him if he felt like he wanted to change. It's not about Hazbin's version of redemption vs. the biblical interpretation of redemption; That comes on episode 8. I suggest you finish the rest of the show and make a video about the remaining episodes and how they might change your view on your thoughts in this video. I would like to hear your opinion on it, even if I don't agree.

I’m a Christian and think the show is fine, nothing malicious towards Christian people in my opinion. Think it’s a bit cheesy, too 2014 in its character design, and the plot holes are definitely there and poor ish worldbuilding. It makes up for it with songs (which are undeniably really freaking good), and characters who are actually good and developed enough. Alastor is the only character that genuinely feels like Satan or a demon in the traditional sense, he’s also the only one that I genuinely was curious to see because he’s so creepy but interesting. People need to relax, get over themselves, and watch or don’t watch whatever they want to

You referenced parasise lost a few times, did you enjoy that? Did you feel like John Milton's portrayal of Lucifer was more accurate than what they gave in this show?

Would like to hear your thoughts for the last two episodes. Your video was very informative to hear as someone who watched & enjoyed the show. I’m a huge advocate for creatives having the freedom of expression and artists being able to depict whatever they want, but I agree that consumption of media matters, especially if there’s a possibility that kids will engage with said content. Despite the show being rated, we know like other adult cartoons, kids can watch and may/may not be subconsciously influenced by them. The show itself didn’t change or weakened my faith as to me, it is simply fiction & I am comfortable with my relationship with God. Still it doesn’t mean I couldn’t enjoy it, it was a show imo better than so many modern cartoons depicting fart jokes & reboot PPG girls twerking with a panda bear. Cheers!

For Those Wondering What Heaven Is Like In Hazbin Hotel?, The Only Good Person Is A Seraphin Named Emily. Once You Meet Adam(Yes The First Man Adam) You'll See How Corrupt It Is. Also They Don't Actually Know How Any Soul Gets Redeemed Into Heaven.

I am a catholic Christian and personally I really enjoy Hazbin Hotel. I think making it 18+ was an extremely smart move considering kids' brains soak information like sponges. You definitely need to know to not let a show shape your religious views before watching Hazbin Hotel, this exactly the reason why it's 18+. Other than that the show pretty much goes by Christian faith except a lot of things are altered. It's a very interesting concept to see how heaven and hell are constantly at war trying to destroy each other. Of course after watching this show, my views on Christianity and God have not changed one bit. I love God now as much as I loved him before watching the show.

this might be the most fair Christian review I have seen. Like you actually bothered to watch it.

Thank you, very relevant.

I can respect that a Christian can feel akward about a show like Hazbin Hotel, but I cannot understand why so many take so personally, I mean yes it's based in Christian mythology (actually is Judeo-Christian mythology) and many of that mythology it isn't based in the Bible in the first place, I mean Lilibeth is from a Jewish legend that Jewish learned when they were captured in Babylon, the so called levels of Inferno can from Dante, Jesus wasn't born on December, many Christians have doubt about the Biblical origins of the Rapture, the normal depictions of the Angels (conveniently they always white 😂), Saint Peter in the gates of Heaven, etc.

People have been co-opting the Christian mythology for a long time now, thousands of years in-fact. Good grief you could even claim that Christian mythology is co-opting earlier myths in order to repackage the basic message 'live true, live well' for a Roman audience. Lucifer has been recast as a protagonist in that tale on multiple occasions and similarly God has been depicted as an antagonist - case in point The Demiurge of Early Gnostics. The conflation between the character of Satan/Lucifer and evil isn't even firmly established in the Bible as Henry Ansgar Kelly argues in his book: "Satan: A Biography" (Cambridge Press). Essentially his basic premise is that ""A strict reading of the Bible shows Satan to be less like Darth Vader and more and more like an overzealous prosecutor. He's not so much the proud and angry figure who turns away from God as [he is] a Joseph McCarthy or J. Edgar Hoover. Satan's basic intention is to uncover wrongdoing and treachery, however overzealous and unscrupulous the means. But he's still part of God's administration." Even when cast as a moral opponent one can still say that this is a necessary role, a stick to heaven's carrot. In my books whenever we see a stick and carrot being employed together you have to ask the question: "who is the Ass here?" This belief that the current shape of the story is somehow perfect and perfectly true is frankly delusion. The entire thing is a story, but a rich one and as such is ripe for retelling. Nor is this the first such retelling- there are literally hundreds from Milton to Gaiman. If creativity and adaptation annoys staid religious adherents then really as far as I'm concerned you yourselves are responsible for every iota of discomfort for your inability to see beyond the words.

I would like to say thank you. I never heard of the aspect of reach downwards salvation. I was raised a Mormon. Through my twenties I fell into satanism and fell into the pit and I do feel close to angeldust since I have been in abusive relationships in the past while having substance abuse issues. when I was younger around 8 I also survived sexual abuse from a close relative. Now I’m in my 30s and have got my life more straightened out. I know that hazbin hotel can be in some ways wrong about Christianity, but It does give me some hope. I really like that you watched it and gave more of a positive view to someone that has I guess lost faith but wants to be better and accept Jesus back into my life. A lot of American culture has a lot of demonic influences and just goes to show how far this country has changed and not for the better.

loved this measured response, thanks!

Its funny that there is alot of dislikes from people who don't got god in themselve just because a Christian is Telling the Real truth about god and his bible

I totally agree with him about almost everything, but, I want to see its conclusion and everything else. however, I won't dwell on it because I can see how it can do more harm than good

Hazbin hotel is not accurate in it's portrail of real life religion. But it is accurate in the fact that it preach the same thing that those religion preach such as forgivness and redemption. And while I do not know if god existe of not it is obvious that many story in the bible were not written by accuracy sake but more a teaching material for people to understand said moral. As such I think it's important to retell those story in a way that resonate with the more messy world that we have today. Liking Hazbin hotel is a personal decision but we cannot fault it for trying to show that despite the messy world we lived in the lesson taught by the bible still have great value.

In my opinion, Charlie Morningstar is more Christlike then most US Christians today. Most, not all. Yes, fiction matters, but this show isnt here to proselytize or indoctrinate. It's telling a story using familiar aesthetics, and other mythology such as the Lessar Key of Solomom. Oh! And Satan Lucifer and Beelzebub are 3 separate characters in this universe, as they are in Peter Binsfeld's classification of demons. VivziePop has stated Satan and Leviathan will be much closer to their "traditional" depictions. Vivienne Medrano is creating her own universe with influences from different corners of Christianity and Judaism.

Finally, an open minded christian that doesn't immediately claim Hazbin Hotel as a Satanist Cult Show LMAO

For Christians, it's easy to complain about everything all the time. I know it best because I've been there myself. But the show is actually interesting, that's why it's succeeding. I have yet to come across media that's both interesting and universally liked by Christians. Even something like the Christian series Chosen has so many haters, since it's not a "faithful" adaptation of the bible. GUESS WHAT, IF YOU'RE READING ANYTHING BUT THE BIBLE, YOU'RE NOT GETTING THE BIBLE. There is literally always something to complain about. It's no wonder why so many people leave the church when there are only grumpy cats telling you how everything's bad. Dude, if you want to live your hermit Christian life with God alone, go ahead and stop telling others what to do.

The show is very emotionally honest about a lot of things, but particularly relevant here is how it's emotionally honest about what it's like to grow up believing in hell. Hell is an evil idea in the first place. The idea that people would be tortured for all eternity after death is monstrous.

satan and lucifer are diferent people in this series

Kudos just for watching the Show and then judging it.

Yes Cartoons do matter

Thank you for second video. I think that the haters of the show need to understand that the story of Genesis in the bible is a translation of the earliest Hebrew story. Remember Hebrew and Latin and then Latin to English is not a clean one to one translation. The prologue is more closely aligned with the early versions of the Hebrew creation myth.

St Peter is Christian in a specific mythological sense, but Lilith is a Jewish myth. Peter, being human, could have gone to the show's Heaven even if Jesus were not divine, because that happens to many humans in the show's lore (what it takes to get into Heaven and avoid Hell being a bit unclear, but some general concept of being "good"). Adam went to Heaven without being Christian at the time of his death, for example. Neither Jesus nor God (the Father, I mean) are mentioned as characters (although God is mentioned in a few swears). I think they are very inexact (to some extent purposefully), on whether the Christian or the Jewish God is the basis of their in-show lore.

Ummm actually Lucifer and Satan are 2 characters in the universe

I really think you missed the whole point of the show and nothing that someone would say would change my view on 'God' or "Jesus'. I respect that you have your own opinions on it, but you're taking it way too seriously.

Human comforts created by other humans is just not a valid perspective on godly being proof

adam is actually not a jerk hes only a jerk when he comes close to demons to scare them away

It's as bad maybe worse but now it has it's claws in you.

You really don't see it do you? Listen, I respect people's faiths...but your faith has hurt me over and over and over again. The angels that come to exterminate the lost souls that god is supposed to be protecting is a representation of the hypocrisy and zealousness of the church that continues to persecute those they deem blasphemous based on their opinion and do so in the name of holy justice. Notice how most of the main cast are of the LGBT community. Those who are products of their misfortune in life that people turned away. It wouldn't work if they used Norse Mythology, or Greek, and while I understand that not all of those of Christian faith are prejudice in that light...it does not take away the pain. That is why Lucifer (who in this universe is different from satan, that actually most jewish mythologies) is depicted the way he is, why heaven is without God, why they don't even know what gets a soul into heaven. Because the churches claim they know but because God can't tell them directly they only assume and thus pass judgement in his name with no real reference. Hazbin Hotel is using the mythology of religious lore as a place for real life hypocrisy. So no, its not dangerous, because this is a show for adults who understand that this is not the actual lore. Children should not be watching this show at all and that was made pretty clear. This is about people demonizing others for who they are and for their mistakes that people don't even attempt to understand. Some people are just monsters through and through like Alastor and Valentino, but others are just people who are products of their generational trauma. Angel Dust the son of a mob boss and drug dealer had little choice in his life wouldn't you say?

This show is amazing

I’m glad I’m not alone I like it because I’m a big fan of theatre and it has this feel. However I do believe that you should stay with the holy spirit and not let this change your beliefs.

"Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under earth or to worship or serve "Exodus 20:2-17,

No one may dislike about the show it's so inconsistent but But what he said is a lot better

if they do depict god, i hope that hes not just some asshole and that he has to make decisions that work for everyone (leading to tough decisions that cant be made lightly)

I don't trust Jesus he sounds sus!

Here's at least 2 Christians who actually watched the show and found any real "message" that was ever intended 1: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TZUpgTMhNJc.html 2: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-O1otEtPRuNg.html I will never understand how any self proclaimed "Christian" can happily condemn others the same way that Adam and Lute in the show do, and think it's ok or some how morally better of them. If this show has an actual "moral" or lesson to teach, it's that every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.

I am not Christian but this inspired me

I am morally Christian. I was raised being forced into a dress and drugged to church every Sunday. I enjoyed my time there and listened to the stories and lessons and accepted Jesus into my heart, but I will hopefully never go to church again. Why? Because the elders of my church, the church I was the third generation going to, told my brother, someone they watched grow up from birth, that if he got married to his now current wife, because this is his second marriage, any child he wouldhave with this woman, would be damned to hell. His first wife was unfaithful, lied, and did not marry him for love. So, according to these elders, because the Bible says something about no divorce and no getting remarried, my nephew is apparently blocked from entering the gates of heaven. My nephew is doomed to hell as punishment for the 'sins' of his father.

Heaven and Hell as portrayed in Christian Mythology always remembered me very much of Diablo lore. A Fundamentally Good and a Fundamentally Evil being, supposedly, are both too stubborn to change, or basically UNABLE, and therefore together create all the problems that exist in the World by means of their Eternal clashing. And it translates really well into Hazbin Hotel as well. Heaven is Strict and unable to consider anything but divine will, where as Hell/Lucifer is generous trusting and a free spirit. It ends up biting him in the ass in the end, but the Lore is wildly different at that point. GOD gave humans free will in Christian Lore, Lucifer did it in Hazbin. Funny thing is, that people will still Judge only Lucifer, not god, even tho they both made the same "Mistake" in the end. As far as i can tell, Christians are not really quite uniform, in some versions Lucifer literally presented God with a Solution for Gods stupid rules that damned humanity, and he refused stubbornly. Also a parallel with Diablo lore, as "Evil" tries to reunite with "Virtue" to become the original being again, but Virtue refuses for no real reason. I´d say Heaven depicts how people see christianity today very well, and for a few good reasons too. While at the same time, obviously doubting the Narrative of such an Institution, an institution that has brought more pain and death thatn probably any other in History. This doesn´t come from nowhere.

I actually love the show but I can respect your opinion. You at least don't call the show satanic.

It's so funny to see a Christian view everything through religious glasses. Also, I'm not surprised that a Christian is taking a fictional story so seriously, considering how Christians have done so for ages.

It's a cartoon dude grow up! I'm now going to watch it!

Thanks so much for this- not just for the cultural critique (which is helpful even if someone has slightly different take), but also for seeking to under WHY something has such traction. So much Christian critique just blasts culture without asking why the series/book/song/ideology has captured the hearts of people. But I think you’ve really hit on something with appealing to the outsider… it certainly rings true for me anyway. Praising God for the topsy-turvy Gospel: God in Christ calling the outsider in. In to His family. Thank you! Also- why are you dressed like you’re about to shear sheep?

Can we say that this is like “war pigs” song from the prince of darkness 😂 but in the tv series version?

I mean it's so divorced from actual Christian theology it's more or less meaningless in a direct way to Christianity.

All forgiven and yay it's just a show I know multiple shows and series Where they twist the mythology of their own universe Even if it originates from a real mythology like Christianity. The Mandela catalog is a good example however this one is somewhat more accurate with demons And is actually pretty scary.

The ideas you present about Christianity very much align with the show. Charlie is the jesus figure that reach down to the people to save them through forgiveness (which is not a uniquely Christian consent). For example, in the show, we don't know why people are saved or condemned, and both heaven and hell have good and bad people. In Christianity the only requirement for salvation is for jesus to save you through belief and forgiveness. Not by judging you morals. So the requirements are not based on morality. You refuse to see the real parallels and criticisms because of your preconceived biases.

I'm sorry; a "Christian mythologist" you do realize that all religion is in fact the mythology of mankind and their extremely limited knowledge of the natural world around them and their inate abilities to come up with stories to detail their small niche in the grander world around them right? If you're going to claim there's a "god" then perhaps you need to acknowledge *L!* and the elohem. AKA THE ORIGIN OF YOUR "GOD!" A STOLEN DEITY FROM A PEOPLE THAT WEREN'T EVEN JEWISH. Hazbin Hotel depicted the origin story of your own religion better than the big book of fables and contradictions itself

As a Christian and a fan of Hazbin and Helluva. I'm so glad abd grateful for you looking into it and even speaking to those lost who may be curious what a Christian thinks of a show like this. Please finish the series and say your final thoughts on it but I agree. Wordly media loves to push the narrative that we can save ourselves but that isn't the case. Only Jesus saves! God bless you! You earned a new subscriber!

Keep up the good work ✝️ people are choosing to be willingly blind when you expose hazbin hotel

1:10 see an important thing you and all these other christian channel are missing is that the show is equily as fictional as your religion....

Umm acctully lucifer and satan are not the same in the vivziepop universe you should do your research on the lore before you make a video like this

dume

He’s missed the actual message of the show 🤦‍♀️

No thanks I find my love and life outside of God don't need them don't want them lol if I end up in hell then woops that sucks but atleast I enjoyed life before I died

9:57 The god of the Bible doesn’t offer any of those things, just damnation and hell

Not everyone believes in your magical sky daddy

Everyone I am not kidding about this… this should not be at all presented by anyone as watchable or good in any way. SATAN SHOULD NEVER EVER BE PERCEIVED IN ANY FORM OF GOODNESS!!! He is the literal incarnation of evil that wants to hurt you at every turn.
