I wouldn't describe my TikTok FYP a spiritual journey — it's mostly food,Girls in the Night Traffic sports, Bravo stuff, dogs, and weird internet humor. Yet lately, I’ve noticed a surge of religious comments popping up under some of the more viral TikToks on my feed, and they’re quickly rising to the top.
It's unclear how this started, but I'm not alone. Folks on the Christianity subreddit are wondering where this all came from, too. It's so pervasive that some people wonder if it's bot activity, which feels likely.
"Okay but like, it's one thing to be a comment in every tiktok, I'm getting it on EVERY comment on tiktok now. It's obnoxious and it's just spam now," read a top comment under the Reddit discussion.
I've noticed that most of the comments follow a similar script. They mention that Jesus died for your sins and attempt to spread the Christian gospel. Some even acknowledge that copy-paste is an attempt to spread the gospel. Here are a few instances I screenshot over the last few days.

The Christian comments have seemingly gotten so pervasive that folks are now mocking them. I've now seen a couple of instances of folks copying the cadence of the Jesus comments while praising, well, Satan.

The religious comments read like something you'd get on Facebook — Boomers happily copy-pasting share this to show LOVE for your GOD — which has since morphed into sarcasm. It's only a matter of time before the ways we mock the initial comments overtake the comments themselves. For instance, I've already seen people take the pro-Christian script and rephrase to praise LeBron James.
So, if you see a lot of comments about God on TikTok in the coming weeks, at least you know you're not alone.
