Jesus Makes More Sense Than the Big Bang Theory [WATCH]

Popular podcast host Joe Rogan has expressed a growing curiosity about Christianity and the figure of Jesus Christ in recent episodes of The Joe Rogan Experience, signaling a shift in his long-standing engagement with topics of religion, science, and philosophy.

In a wide-ranging discussion with writer and TikTok creator Cody Tucker, Rogan said he finds the idea of Jesus Christ increasingly logical when compared to prevailing scientific theories about the origins of the universe.

Specifically, Rogan questioned the plausibility of the Big Bang theory in contrast with the belief in the resurrection of Jesus.

“I’m sticking with Jesus, Jesus makes more sense. People have come back to life,” Rogan told Tucker during the episode.

The comments came amid a philosophical conversation about existence, time, and the origins of creation.

Rogan criticized what he sees as the public’s uneven skepticism regarding faith-based claims versus scientific ones.

“It’s funny because people will be incredulous about the resurrection of Jesus Christ but yet they’re convinced that the entire universe was smaller than a head of a pin and that for no reason that anyone has adequately explained to me, instantaneously became everything? Okay,” he said.

He also quoted ethnobotanist Terence McKenna, stating, “That’s McKenna’s great line… the difference between science and religion is that science only asks you to believe in one miracle—the Big Bang.”

Rogan and Tucker also discussed the philosophical implications of the universe having always existed versus having come from absolute nothingness.

Rogan expressed skepticism about the latter.

“Wouldn’t it be crazy if there wasn’t something at one point in time? That seems even crazier than there’s always been something,” he said.

This is not the first time Rogan has commented on religion or the figure of Jesus.

In an earlier episode from last year, Rogan expressed concern over the increasing secularization of modern society and the decline of religious influence.

“As time tolls on, people are going to understand the need to have some sort of divine structure to things… we need Jesus. I think, for real. Like if he came back now, it’d be great. Jesus, if you’re thinking about coming back, now’s a good time,” Rogan said.

In another past conversation, Rogan spoke with musician Kid Rock about significant moments in history they would want to witness. Kid Rock selected the time of Jesus Christ and affirmed his belief in Jesus, saying, “1000%.”

Rogan replied, “It would be amazing if it was true.”

During the exchange, Kid Rock asked Rogan if he would want to know Jesus.

Rogan responded, “I think the concept of Jesus is absolutely amazing, and if Jesus came here and wanted to visit me, I would be psyched.”

While Rogan has not publicly declared a formal belief in Christianity, he has made repeated comments in recent months about his interest in the historicity and teachings of Jesus Christ.

“I’m very interested in the idea of Jesus being a real person,” Rogan said.

Rogan also recently hosted Christian apologist Wesley Huff, where the two discussed the crucifixion and historical evidence surrounding the death of Jesus.

Huff presented theological and historical perspectives, adding to Rogan’s ongoing exploration of faith-based topics on his platform.

Rogan’s platform, one of the most downloaded and watched podcasts in the world, frequently covers religion, science, politics, and culture with a wide range of guests.

His latest comments add to a growing public discourse about faith, especially among high-profile figures in entertainment and media.
