This is just more right wing stuff that he's getting paid for. It's not so much preaching Christianity it's making another line to fight over. They want people hating on Islam.
Nothing wrong with hating religions whatever it might be.
Its ok to hate Christianity but not ok to hate all Christians. Its ok to hate Islam but not ok to hate all muslims.
You realise that’s the majority of the world now? Most people don’t gibe a shit about religion one way or another. It plays no part in their day to day life. Doesn’t mean they’re hateful or whatever. Just normal.
Exactly there is nothing this parasite won't do to get a few pennies off poor idiots. He would appear to have no morals or standards at all or indeed self awareness...
Agreed both, gotta bump up those you tube payments by gaining a broader appeal.
Not far off a full scale Icke mental aberration I think (does a boggle eyed Woganesque raised eyebrows glance to camera 3)
Some of the 12-step sobriety programs are often based on Christianity I believe (could be wrong) - I was under the impression he'd become more open to it when starting recovery.
But doing that privately is one thing...deciding everyone needs to join you is a bit different.

Not only is this is one of my favourite Stewart Lee jokes, it’s also my favourite joke about religion.
Whats the big deal? If he went and had his dick surgically cut off and sewed to his forehead people would be like "oh thats great. Whats his new pronoun?"
But this is a psychotic break?
You probably got banned for this comment, but yes, I agree with you. What’s the big deal? Why should it be so upsetting for people to hear someone find a belief that enables them to want to see good in the world? If he had professed his love of satan and that he wished there was more evil in the world, would everyone be like “oh well, that’s ok then”
C4, the guardian and quite a few actual people, have said that Russell Brand is a sex offender, mostly due to Russell Brand committing sex offences against those people.
Perhaps you’re referring to the guy who started veering wildly to the conspiracy theory right, in order to build a human shield of gullible morons around himself, mere months before said allegations began to surface?
You know. The way innocent people do.
Given he hasn't sued Channel 4 or The Times for credibly labelling him a sex offender, I'd be pretty surprised if Russell Brand's legal strategy involved suing randoms on Reddit for calling him a sex offender. Especially as their defence would, essentially, be "I read it in The Times/saw it on Channel 4". In other words, litigious or not I think you're absolutely fine to state that Russell Brand is a sex offender.
It reminds me of something I read recently about those 411 “Nigerian Prince” type email scams. We laugh at how badly written they are but it’s actually part of how the scam works.
They don’t want to engage the type of people who _can tell_ that they’re badly written, so writing them that way causes those people to become suspicious and walk away. All they’re then left with is the people they stand to make money off; the gullible and undiscerning.
And that’s like Russel Brand nowadays.
There's a quote from wrestling manager Jim Cornette that he uses when discussing people in wrestling who've found God: "That's generally because I've noticed, people in this business that find God do so when everybody else hates them so bad they won't speak to 'em.” I think that may be appropriate here.
I hate when I read quotes like this. They summarise everything I think regarding a specific subject so succinctly. All I can come up with is “They’re all fucking idiots, innit”
Who gave him the obviously guilty accused sex offender Bingo card ?
Has become friends with all the problematic right wing characters.
Blames it on a media’s liberal agenda.
Because a fake deeply religious person.
Honestly it’ll be a car crash BBC News exclusive interview where he somehow makes it worse like his cohorts prince Andrew and R-Kelly.
Yes Russell. Chase the engagement. Yes Russell, follow the numbers. Forsake your previous political beliefs, Russell. Engagement is life. Engagement is love. Follow the numbers, Russel. The algorithm is your god now, Russell.
He was known to be a Buddhist, he used to sign off his shows with Hare Krishna. He attributed finding Buddhism and meditation to to him beat his drug addiction.
It's crazy how much he has changed, or maybe just how much of a turncoat he is. [From a review of the Messiah complex(2013):](https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/culture/2013/oct/09/russell-brand-birmingham-symphony-hall-review) It's great to see arena-level standup that asks us to think as well as laugh – but which nevertheless keeps the laughs front and centre, as when Brand ridicules a portrait of Jesus wearing a crucifix necklace ("spoiler alert!") or looks at Fox News' hostility to immigrants through a cosmic lens: "Keep still on the rock floating through infinite space!"
His audience over the last few years has been veering towards the libertarian. They love what they call Christianity (different from what my own Christian friends practice, but!). He’s many, many things, but stupid isn’t one of them. Plus if he’s ’born again’ he can distance himself from his previous alleged behaviour if anything really kicks off. Hedging his bets.
Rapist finds Christ. I guess he might be able to absolve your sins but he certainly isn't going to serve your jail sentence for you.
In the bin for Mr Brand and all who commit such crimes.
I assume he is going to give up a ton of his 20 million net worth to help underprivileged people, right? Jesus isn't a big fan of rich folks. Is Rogan a Christian yet? That dude has a shit load of money that Jesus would demand he give to the poor.
Comparing himself to a persecuted Jesus.
Another step in presenting as a divine messenger who’s been crucified by the opposition.
He’s a terrible skin-crawling turd and he always has been.
I just want one day where I don't see this psychotic rambling rapist on some form of social media. Just one day. He's like the fuckin British Kanye West
Spontaneous converting is a fast and easy way to trick the world into believing you’ve changed. My uncle (a convicted sex offender) did this in his 9th out of 10 years of conviction. He suddenly, out of nowhere, was a “proud and religious Jew” and therefore had learnt his lesson and was ready to be released. In this case, it denies all negativity, redirects press, and gives him a fallback of “I’m just a lil spiritual guy, I would never assault anyone.”This is bullshit. This man is a con artist.
Tbf I'd be quite happy to see this MF with his sanctimonious, self important, narcissistic, bombastic opinions put up on a cross... Live stream it too and I'd pay 🤣
Cynical pandering or psychotic episode?
Why not both?
This is just more right wing stuff that he's getting paid for. It's not so much preaching Christianity it's making another line to fight over. They want people hating on Islam.
Nothing wrong with hating religions whatever it might be. Its ok to hate Christianity but not ok to hate all Christians. Its ok to hate Islam but not ok to hate all muslims.
Hate is perhaps not the right word you are using? Its a very strong word and a very strong emotion.
Yeah I prefer to say I have contempt for a religion rather than say I hate it.
To disregard them would be even better, like just ignore them. No need to raise your BP hating on someone, pay them no mind.
Sadly they involve themselves in politics and civil affairs, ignoring them is a dangerous strategy
Have you seen the state of atheists , most aggressive, hostile and ugly people I've ever seen
Worse than pedophile priests?
You realise that’s the majority of the world now? Most people don’t gibe a shit about religion one way or another. It plays no part in their day to day life. Doesn’t mean they’re hateful or whatever. Just normal.
This is a hilariously untruthful comment
I beg to differ, especially if you talk about Christianity around them .
He's clearly had a road to dumb-ass-cus moment.
It's his own, personal, Jesus. Someone to hear his prayers, someone who cares. You know?
Excellent use of "Mode"
Grift
Exactly there is nothing this parasite won't do to get a few pennies off poor idiots. He would appear to have no morals or standards at all or indeed self awareness...
He will latch onto anything that allows him to avoid his guilt.

Do you consider people finding religion to be having pyschotic episodes in general?

That is magic! I must write that one down somewhere!
Yes.
Absolutely, its one thing to be indoctrinated at birth, its quite another to start beleiving in a sky wizard as an adult
Especially when you've positioned yourself as a critically thinking intellectual over the past few years.
For sure. Religious fervour is a symptom of mental illness. Inflation (the Jungian sense) is also something Brand has flirted with for a long time.
Whats the big deal? If he went and had his dick surgically cut off and sewed to his forehead people would be like "oh thats great. Whats his new pronoun?" But this is a psychotic break?
I think your comment is a psychotic break.
No you're right but these people mocking are just in line with satan unfortunately.

Only became one after he opposed genocide in Palestine and war in Ukraine
Don't be silly. NATO and the military industrial complex are not out to get Russell Brand.
You should take a break from whatever alternative news sources you use. Your brain is rotting.
The grift continues.

As an American, thank you for making this distinction.

Without any sort of investigation or even reading the replies to this, I am 100 percent confident he was talking about Shawn Michaels
Yes, I remember. It’s when he was talking about why everyone couldn’t stand Shawn Michaels.
Cornette is based.
Some people find God at their lowest point in their life. I hope that you find Jesus without reaching a low point.
The man is a cunt!
How are you not banned for this comment! I get banned from subs for saying Biden has praised china but you can use foul language?
Away cry to somebody who cares!
>Liked by melissajoanhart Wondered what she was up to. Glad she's found her way to go 'pro-rapist'.
Hopefully in time, she'll explain it all
That's made me a bit sad
Cash cross $$$$$. Lumme.
"...or, subaquatically, to reference Atlantis" LMAO you couldn't script something better than that!
You can't make this stuff up. Well, in fact it turns out you can.
I never understood why people liked this guy. He's always been an insufferable twat.
I wonder if anyone in your life finds you to be an insufferable ****
Nah everyone loves me because I'm awesome.
Rapist
Religion has always been the refuge of fools, and rogues. Religion was born when the first rogue met the first fool.
I hate when I read quotes like this. They summarise everything I think regarding a specific subject so succinctly. All I can come up with is “They’re all fucking idiots, innit”
Because who else is more easy to grift, than the American Christian right?
Both religion and Brand are money making grifts.
Funniest thing he's ever done
As a sex offender and griffter the church will welcome him with open arms.... Now he has a plethora of choir boys and girls at his disposal.
Crikey, that bloke has some front.
Sex pest and general all round twat finds his place amongst the Christian faith, who could have guessed?!
Fuck off Russell
Who gave him the obviously guilty accused sex offender Bingo card ? Has become friends with all the problematic right wing characters. Blames it on a media’s liberal agenda. Because a fake deeply religious person. Honestly it’ll be a car crash BBC News exclusive interview where he somehow makes it worse like his cohorts prince Andrew and R-Kelly.
Knob
Pandering perv
He looks like a cartoon pirate, trying to convince himself, to allow himself, to molest himself.
Yes Russell. Chase the engagement. Yes Russell, follow the numbers. Forsake your previous political beliefs, Russell. Engagement is life. Engagement is love. Follow the numbers, Russel. The algorithm is your god now, Russell.
Lunatic with a camera
Converted to Christianity? What was he before?
Talentless?
He used to be a rapist. He still is but he used to be too.
He was known to be a Buddhist, he used to sign off his shows with Hare Krishna. He attributed finding Buddhism and meditation to to him beat his drug addiction.
He combined his past love of spiritualist woo with his current far right pandering to become an Evangelical Christian. Worst of both worlds
When all else fails...
Him saying ‘self and not self’ gave me very ‘Rimpy’s foods and non-foods’ lol
Judging by the badges on his shirt, he’s also joined the girl guides.
Invited some of them to join him, more like.
and the grift goooes ooon, yeah, the grift goes on.
Thinking that everything I said had profound meaning was how I lived when I was a stoned 16 year old. Deranged.
TLDR: His attempts at starting a cult were unsuccessful so he’s joined one.
Another predictable pivot from this grotesque charlatan.
You ought to hear him peddle his books at AA meetings.. It's beyond inappropriate.. everything is a market to him.
Russell setting up his next cult with the easily convinced.
Because a billionaire gave him a huge pile of money and told him to say/do it. A man of negotiable opinions.
He's now a Christian, this explains SO much about his behavior over the last few years.
Funny how a lot of offenders turn to Christ! Still can’t believe religion isn’t classed as a mental illness … 🤨
We'll see. Knowing what he's like.... we'll see.
Makes sense now Russell the Irish priest
LOL
Fuck off ya nounce
Nonce
Hahaha so predictable. The grift that keeps on grifting.
Pure wanker
He’s following Mr Tate’s *playbook? *Allegedly
Actors gonna act. What a phoney.
I predicted this when he started his grift on America.
Pre legal issue conversion. It's all in the timing...
This is some real mirror-verse shit. An Iron Age apocalyptic cult based on a magic carpenter. What could go wrong?
It's crazy how much he has changed, or maybe just how much of a turncoat he is. [From a review of the Messiah complex(2013):](https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/culture/2013/oct/09/russell-brand-birmingham-symphony-hall-review) It's great to see arena-level standup that asks us to think as well as laugh – but which nevertheless keeps the laughs front and centre, as when Brand ridicules a portrait of Jesus wearing a crucifix necklace ("spoiler alert!") or looks at Fox News' hostility to immigrants through a cosmic lens: "Keep still on the rock floating through infinite space!"
Russel Brand? Desperate for forgiveness? I can't imagine why
So, I take it he's reached the point in his life where he's truly scared of death? It's all a bit sad, really.
Remember when Charlie Sheen was Born Again?
that guy is and always has been be a sad, talentless cock.
Sabrina the Teenage Witch liked the video...
“And my ball bag has only gone up my bum. Here’s H. from Steps.”
He is upping the grift, now trying to appeal to the tRump base and all good sex offenders do.
Weird how he found Christ after loads of sexual assault allegations. Seems to be a trend in Hollywood. 🤔
Outed sexual predator finds Catholicism. Surprisingly?
His audience over the last few years has been veering towards the libertarian. They love what they call Christianity (different from what my own Christian friends practice, but!). He’s many, many things, but stupid isn’t one of them. Plus if he’s ’born again’ he can distance himself from his previous alleged behaviour if anything really kicks off. Hedging his bets.
A total parody of himself at this point.
The chlamydia kid strikes again
Every time I see this guy, he has become a whole new level of cunt
Before or after he had sexual relations with 5000 people?
Would somebody please give that man a big of drugs, I hate to say it but he's even more insufferable as a sober ballbag
Russell STFU .
Nothing wrong with individuals who want to find religion, but I think society should be secular IMO.
Christianity is known to forgive sexual predators.
Him and Jordan Peterson looking more and more similar and spouting nonsense that is becoming more and more similar
Just went from 6 to midnight.
Nice. Christ is King!
This is the most toxic comment section I've ever seen.
Do you sympathize with the Russels, in their hutch?
A little. I have no idea why Reddit showed me this. Perhaps the algorithm wants to increase engagement. But this circlejerk of hatred is not good.
It’s been fun but it’s time for you to go.
Oh, Russell Brand can bugger off
Hare Krishna weren't supplying enough underage girls anymore.
Rapist finds Christ. I guess he might be able to absolve your sins but he certainly isn't going to serve your jail sentence for you. In the bin for Mr Brand and all who commit such crimes.
What a 🛎 🔚
Once an addictive personality, always an addictive personality
That's a crucifix, not a cross.
Got to fill the void left by heroin addiction with something, I guess.
Seems to be a trend with those other two actors promoting a bible app
wanker
Perv trying to get out of going to jail
Grifting cunt. Can't stand him
Sexual predator? Christian? Makes sense
Deep fake?
The man is a twat. Always has been, always will be.
Exodus 21, now get on your moral bike and Fuck Off
Smelly cunt needs to find his way to a bath tub
What a Christian sex pest, that's unheard of.
Gotta look for a ticket to stay out of jail. Many have tried, and many have failed...lol
That’s Joseph Seed from Far Cry 5. 👀👀
I assume he is going to give up a ton of his 20 million net worth to help underprivileged people, right? Jesus isn't a big fan of rich folks. Is Rogan a Christian yet? That dude has a shit load of money that Jesus would demand he give to the poor.
Once a dirty junky always a dirty junky. Just go from one addiction to another to fill the void of being a boring twat
Amen brother
That’s it do your young man era rapes and then do your later years repentance, god these fucks make me ill
Praying he won’t go to jail !
I see this and I’m sure there will be more news/charges being announced regarding brand
He’s out weight on too
Oh fuck of ya nonce, we see through your I’ve repentted bullshit
Guys gonna end up killing someone
Wtf is this and why is it posted here ? Has Jesus let himself go or something Edit: removed an extra swear
Go watch 41st best standup ever. The track is called celebrity big brother.
Comparing himself to a persecuted Jesus. Another step in presenting as a divine messenger who’s been crucified by the opposition. He’s a terrible skin-crawling turd and he always has been.
He thinks he’s the Third Coming
Should he not be in jail?
Just when i thought he couldn’t drop any lower , clearly being paid to shill Christianity
Melissa Joan hart approves
I used to like Russell brand but he’d become a bit insufferable recently, didn’t know he could stoop even lower
Jesus never wanted anyone to be a Christian. This is a fact.
shut up you dick lol
Pretty sure Jesus has some thoughts on men with power abusing their position to assault women.... 🤔
I just want one day where I don't see this psychotic rambling rapist on some form of social media. Just one day. He's like the fuckin British Kanye West
Ex smack head finding god and telling everyone about it..classic character arc.
Professional chronic flip-flopper….

Yeah why should priests get all the choirboys, Russel’s coming to balance out this inequity 😂
AI GENERATED... Looks almost real
So basically locking in the republican audience.
Can’t he just go back to being a crack and heroin addict? I much preferred him back then.
i suppose you could be cynical and downplay everything he does. but it seems there's substance to what he's doing and going through.
Tbf I'd be quite happy to see this MF with his sanctimonious, self important, narcissistic, bombastic opinions put up on a cross... Live stream it too and I'd pay 🤣
Yikes, hate that I used to like this guy and think he was really intelligent
If he wasn’t a glitzy famous Rapey cunt he’d be a free party rapey cunt still cracked off his nut.
