Intro
It is said that all beauty looks the same, while every instance of ugliness has its own unique gooniness.
This means that the closer two women are to the objective standard of beauty, the more alike they will appear. Hair color and style, height, and even r@ce will fade away in comparison to the shimmering glory of aesthetic perfection.
So it is with Angela Halili and Arielle Reitsma, AKA Girls Gone Bible, a couple of single, dolled-up chicks living in L.A. who continue to defy the precipice of The Wall well into their 30s.
Since both women have an extremely high SMV, even for their age, it is difficult to tell who is who. For ease of reference, Halili is the one with the button nose and the bloated botox lips, and is therefore slightly more clownish. Reitsma, being 6 years older than Halili, is slightly more mature, more modest, and a little more polished in her personal presentation than Halili (but still pushing the limits of propriety). Also, Halili is taller and more slender with a pronounced WHR, and Reitsma is more ‘QQ’, ‘thicc’, and ‘top-heavy’, IYKWIM.
Angela Halili (left) and Arielle Reitsma (right). Girls Gone Bible is a relatively new YouTube account (opened on 2023/5/3), but it has already amassed almost 70M views. That averages out to around 90K views per day!
Girls Gone Bible also has a TikTok account with almost 70K followers and 8.4M views.
These women certainly talk a fine Christian talk, rivaling some of the best preachers I’ve ever heard. But what follows below will reveal that they do not walk the walk nearly so well. Worse, they take pride in continually doling out bad life advice to young women.
Both ladies have done some small part acting gigs and modeling, experiences which have certainly added to their smooth social presentation skills. It is rumored that they were (or possibly still are) escorts and ‘poker girls’ in the Beverly Hills area.
But there’s more … much more.
Biography: Angela Halili
Angela Halili (DOB: 1996/2/4; IG; TikTok; complete Bio; net worth ~$1.2M) is an Albanian American actress who attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Her acting credits include the films The Space Between (2021), Sophia (2022), and Spin the Bottle (2024). She also appears as a scantily clad schoolgirl in episode 1.7 of the series American Horror Stories (2021). She is currently working on a film entitled The Gates of Hades, starring as Eve.
One alarming red flag is that her acting roles are far from Christian-like, as we might expect from someone producing Girls Gone Bible. Instead, the films that Halili has starred in are mostly horror films, some depicting fornication and showcasing the occult / W!tchcraft.
For instance, Spin the Bottle is a horror film in which a group of young adults play spin the bottle in an abandoned house where a brutal massacre occurred prior. After they pair off and start fornicating, evil spirits appear and begin slaughtering them. Halili’s character is stabbed to death, and then she appears as a ghost.
Moreover, her acting roles actively feed the female-specific preponderance on FEAR Fantasy and women’s obsession with The Ordinance of FEAR, as I wrote about recently. I believe this has contributed heavily to the popularity of Girls Gone Bible.
On a more positive note, she has shared her personal journey of overcoming alcoholism and eating disorders and finding healing through her faith, emphasizing the transformative power of God’s love. She claims to have been sober since 2020 (age 24 at that time).
Halili once said that God had put her and Reitsma in Hollywood so they could spread His word in a place where it was needed the most. Or maybe they chose Hollywood to build their careers as actresses. Or both by serendipity.
In her discussions, she has mentioned past relationships that didn’t align with her faith, highlighting the importance of finding someone who shares her devotion to Jesus. Although secular critics have castigated her for promoting female submission, I’ve not yet found a script where she mentions how submission to father or husband is an important expression of a Christian woman’s obedience to God (and she probably won’t if she expects to remain popular among her female audiences).
Rumor has it that Halili once dated or hooked up with Matt Rife. She is currently in a relationship with a handsome man named John (YCMTU), who is the spitting image of the actor Brock Harris. She seldom calls him by name, but prefers to call him “my best friend”, “my boy”, “my treasure”, etc. (IMO, these particular pet names are not very respectful to him, and this casual attitude towards him does not bode well for a future Christian marriage. I get the strong feeling that their relationship is all about HER, NOT about him or even them.)
Angela Halili with her current flame, John. Biography: Arielle Reitsma
Reitsma has a more impressive acting and modeling career, but a much smaller internet footprint (which you’d think is a good thing, but later I concluded that it’s NOT for reasons discussed below). Here’s what I could find on her.
Arielle Reitsma (DOB: 1989/11/9; IG; TikT0k; ) was originally from a working-class family in Massachusetts.
In her late teens, she won the Miss Hawaiian Tropic pageant crown. She modeled from that time up until she was about 30 (I’m guessing) [example]. During my search, I found many photos of her modeling swimsuits and other revealing clothing (see images below). I also found some nude selfies of her, although I don’t think it was marketed as P0rn.
In 2011, there was an online controversy in which people claimed that Arielle Reitsma was a pseudonym, and that Amanda Roadmen was her real name. (Amanda Roadmen was a model who posed for much more revealing shots, and yes, they look so identical that it’s difficult to tell them apart, especially with lighting and makeup.) She denied this in a video.
Reitsma began acting at a young age, ~16. She is recognized for her appearances in the sitcom, How I Met Your Mother (2005); a crude adult comedy entitled College Humor Originals (2006); The Middle (2007); and the music video production, Spider Mountain: No Way Down (2011). She has also appeared in the films, Rock of Ages (2012) as a s1utty girl; Corn Star (2013); Don Jon (2013), a movie about P0rn and love; American Satan (2017); and Walk of Fame (2017); among many others.
She appeared nude in American Satan (2017), and in season 1 episode 1 of Winning Time — The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty (2022), in which she portrays a bedridden bunny in the Playboy mansion.
Overall, Reitsma’s acting career has rather debased themes, e.g., casual sex, glorifying male simpery or weakness as an object of ridicule, nudity, P0rn as a topic or lifestyle (but not as a genre), etc. But OTOH, one could argue that this is mild compared to the rest of Hollywood.
Reitsma is rumored to be dating by other media producers such as Tana Mongeau. In her podcasts, she denies (or avoids admitting) being in a relationship, but reading between the lines, she intimates that she’s involved with men to an unknown extent. (See next section for proof of admission.)
Also of note, she has many IG posts that were reposted on various webpages, and have since been deleted. I suspect that she has a past that’s been wiped clean off the net.
Arielle Reitsma modeling for Martina Liana Bridal. A Snapshot of Their Current Faith Outlook
I poked around a few of the GGB videos for a while, casually looking for one that might provide a bon mot of their current spiritual stature.
Here’s a good example that I think is representative. I’ve taken the liberty to fill in the unseemly admissions that she left unsaid, presumably to alleviate her shame. [Text in brackets is mine.]
In one video talk about Purity (2024/4/6), from 17:50 to 21:35, Arielle Reitsma says,
“I was watching what [God] did [in my life]. I was seeing the rapid miracles and changes He was doing in my life, and how he had changed my life so quickly because I was … being obedient, and because I was so … so submitted to Him, and because I was constantly running to Him, and I had this beautiful relationship with Him, and I’m watching what he’s doing in my life, … and I’m doing the right thing. But then … [I realized that] I was like almost picking and choosing what I wanted to do. … He started planting the seed in me, because in my head, I thought, “Well, I’m in a relationship, and it’s okay. I’m not just [a common s1ut] … I’m not sleeping around. I’ve never done that. I’ve always been in relationships.”
So there it is. Reitsma IS (or has been) romantically involved with more than just one man, but instead of counting heads and dividing by 3, she offers a generic reference to “relationships” with ‘men’. She won’t tell any details, but I’d guess that includes sexual intimacy.
Arielle Reitsma The Slore Tell is that she thinks “being in relationships” (plural) is somehow different from, or more morally justifiable than “sleeping around”. Dalrock described this deception back in the early days of the Christian Manosphere 1.0.
Honey, if you’re having sex outside of marriage, you’re acting immorally by Christian standards. You’re “sleeping around”. If you’re only riding one man at a time, it’s called serial monogamy. But it’s still “sleeping around” i.e. fornication. It’s as simple as that.
The good news (or bad, depending on how you think of it) is that this was an epiphany to her.
“But I … I was getting signs like, I felt it in my gut, and then I’ll never forget … we were in church one day and … Pastor Tor … was talking about laying down the sexual sin. … That’s when it started.”
Confirmed. She was “sleeping around” in her ‘relationships’.
“I didn’t think I was doing anything wrong, and then he just talked about [repenting of sexual sin], and then one day I just knew [that I was a fornicator], and I had to lay it down, and I couldn’t lay it down on my own. So I ran to Him. I said, “God I need your help.” … I knew … I couldn’t do it on my own, because it was … something that’s been a part of my life, in my relationship, and in my intimacy with my partner… [Fornicating] was a way that I found love, if I’m being completely vulnerable and honest.”
Congratulations! She can admit that sexual intercourse satisfies her sinful soul as well as her chiseled craven chasm. Totally natural and normal, but nevertheless a sin. But I’ll give her some credit, because this kind of introspection, followed by a real confession (although muted) is rare among women.
“I didn’t know that you could just connect to your partner without that [having regular orgasms] …”
This sounds like the statement of a woman who did not grow up in church, or who did not have a Christian father around to coach her about men, or sex, or the value of sexual purity, or her own fleshly nature.
Arielle Reitsma “I think what really made me say, “I have to lay this down”, is fear — fear of Him, because I heard Him so loudly. Be like, “You follow Me or you don’t follow Me at all!” And so I [repented of my sin].”
There’s the FEAR dynamic that I’ve written about before.
“He gives us so much grace, and he gave me so much grace. But I couldn’t … sit on here and talk [about being a Christian] and have one foot in and one foot out anymore. I was sick, like I started to feel really sick about it, and so I just knew it. It was like one day, I was like, “I can’t … [F_ck around] anymore. I have people, I have young people that are looking up to me, and that are following me, and that want to be like me, and that are listening to me, and actually respect me. I have to live a holy respectable life.”
I find it satisfying to know that the responsibilities of hosting her own YouTube channel and getting regular feedback from viewers are holding her accountable for her actions.
“There were moments where I thought to myself, “I’m never going to be able [to stop F_cking my Ch@d of the month]. How am I ever going to be able to do this? To just lay all this down?” But … because I feared Him so much … and there’s a difference between fearing the Lord and being scared of the Lord. Fearing the Lord means you run to Him because you can’t do it by your own power. So you run to Him and say, “Jesus, I can’t do this on my own. I need you to fill me up with the Holy Spirit. I need you to take it out of me. Take the lust out of me. Give me a clean new pure heart.” And boy, will He! You think that it’s impossible; and I’m telling you, the way I live, holy and just and clean, is so … it’s just so … it’s not hard… it’s not as hard as you think it is. So yeah, that was the day I laid it down.”
There’s a rare, albeit veiled, admission of how much women crave C0ck! Even so, going without sex is a lot easier for women to do than it is for men.
Why Not Marriage?
Listening to some of their other videos on YouTube and TikTok, there’s a lot of talk about the importance of sexual purity and repenting of sexual sin, but oddly, there’s no mention of the correct response to this issue, which is to marry. Occasionally, they’ll mention the men they’re in relationships with, but it is not clear whether these men have any interest in marrying these chicks, or their level of commitment, or even whether they “share their devotion to Jesus” or not. Apparently, Marriage and Husband are low on their list of priorities, or maybe not even a part of their Life Script equation. Apparently, the girth of d!ck they take into their vags, and how to cope with living without this as a Christian, is the paramount concern. The quality of faith of the man possessing that d!ck, and his willingness to commit to her, is a minor issue.
Similar to Scott’s Axiom, when nominal Christian women say they want a man who “shares their devotion to Jesus”, you need to add, “…and who has a big beautiful C0ck” to get the whole truth.
Arielle Reitsma But why are they NOT talking about marriage? I mean, if they’re going to be Christian role models to young single Christian women, then they need to be telling them, first and foremost, how to avoid all this frustration and sexual sin by getting married young and submitting to their husbands. Then they’ll never need to have this sordid epiphany that sex is sinful and wrong. It isn’t, in the right context of marriage, and it is harmful to ever experience this view of sex.
But apparently, living the independent life and sampling the carousel for a few more years before reaching the epiphany that fornication is sinful is the predominant concern. Besides, they cannot very well advocate marriage when they’re pushing past 30 and are still unmarried.
And these are ‘Christian’ women.
Someone has to tell her that women — women just like themselves — put themselves into a limbo of lust when they postporn marriage until after they’ve turned 30 and forn around in the meantime while unmarried. (I seriously doubt that they’ve never had the opportunity to marry.) But who is that ‘someone’? If not father or husband, God Himself will hold their toes to the flames of refinement through their viral popularity. They have admitted that the grace of God is at work in their lives and ministry. I think this is true, but NOT in the way that they think.
Arielle Reitsma, QQ flesh deluxe. Conclusions
As I’ve been searching and reviewing information about Halili and Reitsma, one question I’ve been asking myself is whether their ‘glow‘ is from their beauty, and/or the contentment of being popular, and/or any possible sexual liaisons, or is it because of their faith. In their early years (before starting GGB), I noticed a contemptuous annoyance and a tired annui in their expressions, leading me to conclude that their Halo Effect was definitely of fleshly origin, at least at that time. More recently (since starting GGB), I see more genuine authenticity and sincerity in their self-expression. I guess it is because they are motivated to submit to God in order to make their GGB enterprise work — but the key is that they are learning to submit to God.
Negatives
Halili and Reitsma appear to be upstanding Christian women on the surface and in their GGB broadcasts. However, the deeper I dived into my search, the darker it became. When I uncovered depictions of fornication, nudity, and the occult, I concluded that Halili and Reitsma are straight out of Hollywood, which is about as bad as it gets (with the exception of the P0rn industry).
It’s hard to decide who is the ‘worse’ of the two. They’re both pretty bad, but in different ways.
Halili and Reitsma look nothing like virgins in waiting, or even stereotypical church ladies. They look like young sex pot actresses on the outer fringes of Hollywood, which is essentially what they are, except that they also have a supplementary acting career on their Christian YouTube platform. And they are very talented actors!
They stress the importance of modesty while wearing sundresses, while in other posts, they’re baring their washboard abs in stylish midriff tops, and racy skin-tight sports suits that leave little to the imagination. All while donning golden crucifix earrings and necklace pendants.
Make no mistake, this incongruity between their fundamentalist Christian message and their worldly, wizened bimbopolitan appearance is central to their popularity. Sex always sells, even within the Christian community.
Angela Halili As Amanda Marcotte wrote,
“What Halili and Reitsma are selling is a “mix between the Hawk Tuah Girl and the prosperity gospel,” according to religion professor Bradley Onishi, host of the “Spirit and Power” podcast. As counterintuitive as this may seem to outsiders, Onishi said, it’s a huge deal in evangelical culture when young people perceived as “fashionable” or “cool” who could be hanging out at “cool clubs or parties” are seen as giving that up and “committing themselves to God.” That identity can also make them accessible to more secular users.”

Furthermore, Halili and Reitsma are ADIEU dirty blonde Wh!te chicks with purrfecta bodies and faces and a Hollywood polished look and demeanor, and who have the good genes to maintain their SMV well past 30. Altogether, this makes for a convincing sales pitch for the delusion that any young Christian girl can straddle a Ch@d and ‘repent’ later, just as they are (or were) doing.
Positives
On a positive note, Girls Gone Bible is offering a sense of community and religious fellowship to younger women who want to be seen as feminine, fashionable, and sexually attractive; standing in contrast with the Ugly Feminist, SIW model touted by the wider culture. In this, I think Halili and Reitsma aim to provide an ‘acceptable’ Christian role model for young women — not too Fem!n@z!, but not too prudish either. Readers might argue whether this is merely an appeal to a different style of Worldliness that happens to be more Biblical by comparison, or if they are, in fact, touching young girls’ hearts for Christ and offering a good example to be followed. IMO, GGB is better than any secular models, and it is also an improvement over the current embodiment of Churchian Feminism espoused by converged churches.
It may be too soon to see any Spiritual Fruits from Girls Gone Bible, but I have no doubt that they’re putting a positive spin on the Christian faith for many young people who would otherwise be losing interest in Christianity and drifting away from God and church. To be generous, maybe that is enough to plant some seeds.
There is one more point that I believe is a positive sign. To summarize a great amount of their talk, they said that as soon as they started their Girls Gone Bible broadcast, they both had an immediate reckoning with God. They stated that their sin became more clear to them than ever before, and they realized that they had to set a good example as role models of young, single, feminine Christianity.
Praise God!
Angela Halili (left) and Arielle Reitsma (right) appear on Girls Gone Bible. Here’s an excerpt that captures the tenor of this spiritual advent.
“Halili said, “God told me, ‘If you focus on purity, I’ll focus on growth.’ And that’s been our guiding principle ever since.”
Their approach to the podcast is simple yet intentional. They pray over every topic, ensuring that each episode aligns with what they feel God is calling them to share.
“We don’t just talk about what’s trendy,” Reitsma explained. “We ask God, ‘What do you want us to talk about?’ And somehow, it always aligns with what our listeners need.”

In saying, “If you focus on purity, I’ll focus on growth”, I think God was asking them to be sexually pure, which is telling of their spiritual condition up until that time. No surprise. I interpret ‘growth’ to mean the growth of the popularity of Girls Gone Bible, as well as their personal spiritual growth unto maturity.
I think ‘purity’, in this sense, means their total repentance from lust, fornication, and such. It does NOT mean a total elimination of all things unclean and unseemly in their discussions. The sensationally appealing and also redemptive element of Girls Gone Bible is that they are not sugarcoating anything, the messy parts of their lives, the doubts, the struggles, the sins and temptations.
At a Trump rally, the Girls Gone Bible podcasters called on God to condemn Trump’s critics. But perhaps the shortcoming is that they aren’t sharing enough of the very specific (and embarrassing) personal information that would clue young chicks into the pitfalls of their own poor decisions. There still remains an aura of plausible deniability, the “Oh Wow! I don’t know how it all happened!” schtick, followed by the obligatory “Yeah. God is so gracious!”
It all looks and sounds so tenderheartedly pious, but when you step back and look at them through a Red Pill lens, they’re just showcasing their own foolish ignorance, solipsism, and stupidity.
Yet, God can still use this foolishness.
God’s grace is revealed in the way that they are cleansed from their past through their confessional exposé (James 5:16), and that other women can learn and be edified from their testimonies (2 Corinthians 1:3-7) — NOT that they’ve somehow escaped the consequences of their sin by “focusing on God”, as they seem to think. That’s God’s forbearance and mercy. The consequences are still coming, and are already knocking up their ovaries (Galatians 6:7-8).
