Faith
An Atheist Professor of Philosophy was speaking to his Class on the problem Science has with God. He asked one of his new Christian students to stand.
- Professor: You are a Christian, aren’t you, son?
- Student: Yes, sir.
- Professor: So, you believe in God?
- Student: Absolutely, sir.
- Professor: Is God good?
- Student: Sure.
- Professor: My brother died of cancer, even though he prayed to God to heal him. Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn’t. How is God good, then? Hmm?
- (Student was silent)
- Professor: You can’t answer, can you? Let’s start again, young fella. Is God good?
- Student: Yes.
- Professor: Is Satan good?
- Student: No.
- Professor: Where does Satan come from?
- Student: From.. God.
- Professor: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
- Student: Yes.
- Professor: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it? And God did make everything. Correct?
- Student: Yes.
- Professor: So who created evil?
- (Student didn’t answer)
- Professor: Is there sickness? Immortality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don’t they?
- Student: Yes, sir.
- Professor: So, who created them?
- (Student had no answer)
- Professor: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you. Tell me, son.. have you ever seen God?
- Student: No, sir.
- Professor: Tell us if you have ever heard your God.
- Student: No, sir.
- Professor: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God, for that matter?
- Student: No, sir. I’m afraid I haven’t.
- Professor: Yet you still believe in Him?
- Student: Yes.
- Professor: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, Science says your God doesn’t exist. What do you say to that, son?
- Student: Nothing. I only have my Faith.
- Professor: Yes, Faith. And that is the problem Science has.
- Student: Professor, is there such a thing as Heat?
- Professor: Yes.
- Student: And is there such a thing as Cold?
- Professor: Yes.
- Student: No, sir, there isn’t.
- (The Lecture Theatre became very quiet with this turn of events)
- Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 Degrees below Zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of Heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.
- (There was a pon-drop silence in the Lecture Theatre)
- Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
- Professor: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?
- Student: You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have Low Light, Normal Light, Bright Light, Flashing Light… But if you have No Light constantly, you have nothing and it’s called Darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it is, You would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?
- Professor: So what is the point you are making, young man?
- Student: Sir, my point is, your Philosophical Premise is flawed.
- Professor: Flawed? Can you explain how?
- Student: Sir, you are working on the Premise of Duality. You argue there is Life and then there is Death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, Science can’t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
- Professor: If you are referring to the Natural Evolutionary Process, yes of course, I do.
- Student: Have you ever observed Evolution with your own eyes, sir?
- (The professor shook his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going)
- Student: Since no one has ever observed the Process of Evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a Scientist but a Preacher?
- (The class was in uproar)
- Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?
- (The class broke out into laughter)
- Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? .. No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical, Stable and Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures?
- (The room was silent. The Professor stared at the student, his face unfathomable)
- Professor: I guess you’ll have to take them on Faith, son.
- Student: That is it, sir.. exactly! The link between man and God is Faith. That is all that keeps things alive and moving!

Ernest Shackleton's 137th birthday
as celebrated on Google today:
10 things to know about the famous explorer and a good old englishman:
1) The second of ten children, Shackleton was born 15 February 1874 in Kilkea, County Kildare, Ireland.
2) Restlessness at school meant Shackleton was to allowed to leave at 16 and go to sea, taking an apprenticeship "before the mast" on a sailing vessel.
3) In 1898, he was certifed as a Master Marine, qualifying him to command a British ship anywhere in the world.
4) On 17 February 1901, Shackleton was appointed thired officer to the National Antarctic Expedition's ship Discovery, having impressed the main financial backer Llewellyn Longstaff and expedition overlord Sir Clements Markham with his keenness.
5) Shackleton was chosen by Robert Falcon Scott to accompany Edward Wilson and himself on a march south to achieve the highest possible latitude in the direction of the South Pole. They set out on 2 November 1902 and reached a record Farthest South latitude of 82 degress 17'.
6) On the return journey, having suffered from snow blindness, frostbite and scurvy, Shackleton had by his own admission "broken down" and, after reaching the ship on 4 February 1903, Scott sent Shackleton home on a relief ship.
7) Venturing into politics, Shackleton stood for the Liberal Unionists in Dundee in the 1906 General Election. He was unsuccessful.
8) The Nimrod expedition, otherwise known as the Great Southern Journey began on 19 october 1908 and by January, Shackleton and companions had reached a new Farthest South latitude of 88 degrees 23'S, only 112 miles from the South Pole.
9) Disaster struck Shackleton's most ambitious expedition - the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition, 191417 - when its ship, Endurance, was trapped in pack ice and slowly crushed, before the shore parties could be landed.
10) Shackleton died on 5 January 1922 from a fatal heart attack.

Mike Relm makes stuff cool
I normally moan at people for watching kids' TV shows, but this short animation has music by Mike Relm, so it's completely acceptable!
A favourite track of mine by Mike can be found here. Anything with Del is rad, enjoy!

Tyler The Creator - 'Yonkers'
When I first heard this when Will Scarborough posted it, I wasn't watching the video, and until I did I thought it was a new Aesop Rock track. Tyler The Creator has a similar sounding voice, and similar weird and slightly surreal lyrics and sound. The video for 'Yonkers' (below) is weird as well, but I like it. It's off his second album, 'GOBLIN' which is set to be out in April. Reading back that didn't sell the track very well, but trust me, I'm downloading it, and you should too, especially if you like Aesop Rock or El-P.
Cassetteboy & Billy Conolly

Cassetteboy doing their usual, this time with Billy Conolly, and as usual it's hilarious! Give it a watch above.
After watching this I looked up Billy Conolly Live on YouTube, and I'm currently in the middle of watching Billy Conolly: Was It Something I Said?. Definately worth checking out, especially if you think political correctness has gone mad.

Uh ohhh
"As a friend of Egypt and the Egyptian people we stand ready to help in any way we can" - David Cameron.
I hope Egypt isn't going to be the next Afghanistan. It's certainly got a similar background though; political instability, the overthrow of a dictator force, a potential power struggle, British interests to protect. Too early to worry though?

So good to see Biggie and The Smiths in there where they belong, but I've really got to question Elbow being in there; there's a point where surreal becomes ridiculous noise, and Elbow cross that line. I seriously recommend you try at least some of these albums, if you're at a loss where to start, I'd say start at the top; 'Blueprint' is seminal. Enjoy!

So good to see Biggie and The Smiths in there where they belong, but I've really got to question Elbow being in there; there's a point where surreal becomes ridiculous noise, and Elbow cross that line. I seriously recommend you try at least some of these albums, if you're at a loss where to start, I'd say start at the top; 'Blueprint' is seminal. Enjoy!

Antiz Skateboards on a dirtbike track
Haha, I always thought Antiz was sick, this proves it! Looks so fun, exactly what skateboarding should be about!
Seriously check this out
Harry Wise has been putting together some mashups. And they're sick! Tracks he's used include Notorious B.I.G.'s 'Party and Bullshit', Major Lazer's 'Pon De Floor' and even Tempa T's 'Next Hype'. With a track selection like that for remixes you can't go wrong, and he certainly hasn't! Favourites for me include
Party & Next Bullshit by Harry Wise
and
JME and Tempz On A Mission by Harry Wise
So rad, keep going man!
