‘No Surprise In This Godless Town’: Comedian Jokes at Golden Globes That No Stars Thanked God

Nikki Glaser, the comedian who played host to this year’s Golden Globes Awards in Beverly Hills, joked Sunday that none of the evening’s winners thanked God for their successes.

At the halfway point of the star-studded show, Glaser said the acceptance speeches had been “on fire” before looking at a tally of who winning celebrities had thanked upon receiving their prizes, with cast and crew members filling the No. 1 spot, followed by moms and “Access Hollywood” host Mario Lopez.

“God, creator of the universe, with zero mentions,” said Glaser. “[N]o surprise in this godless town.”

They could remake Ben-Hur with muscle-cars and Puerto Ricans

For sure - just look at what they did to the story of Noah’s Ark - absolute trash.

I have to wonder if that’s part of the reason CA is burning?

“We know who our leader is and that’s God and Jesus Christ”.

Despite a devastating loss to Ohio State, Texas Longhorns CB Jahdae Barron extended the postgame press conference to tell people about God! Jesus gets the glory win, lose or draw!”

I like him! Took guts, or maybe just honesty! Let’s hope that his words might just hit home for a few to get them to at least ponder their life and meaning of life, and look to God for answers eventually!

Never wise to mock God the way she did. But yeah it was surprising that no one did thank God. I remember back when I used to watch television people thank God all the time for winning a game or being awarded a trophy.

The funniest thing to me was the dead silence in the room after she said “in this Godless town”.

The Ben Hur from some years back (not many) was pretty good but remaking something Charlton Heston was in...that’s an uphill battle.

Godless towns elect Godless leaders.

Godless states elect Godless leaders who worship Mother Earth and want to serve and protect little fishies instead of the folk that voted for them.

They may be praying to God but have not likely believed in him.

No, I’ll bet they’re cursing Him. The worst of them are, anyway. They consider themselves gods among men.

Movies like The 10 Commandments and Ben-Hur could not be made today in modern Hollywood.

However, there's a growing Christian film industry that has put out films like "I Heard the Bells" (2022). I just saw "Reagan," whose script was written by the Christian historian Paul Kengor. I highly recommend both of these movies, which contain zero nudity, sex scenes or profanity.

The Ravens QB thanked God last night on mic and camera. I saw one of the teams and coaches on their knee in a circle praying after the game .
