Spins1200 you might want to stop arguing with Isaac. He is completely ignorant to the fact that not only what he is saying is incorrect but illogical also. You have responded very clearly to everything he's said and he still doesn't understand.... You can never win against ignorance. Isaac you should take a philosophy class on logic/arguments at your local college if your even old enough before you argue with people otherwise you will always be blind to this ignorance you've been displaying.
Agnosticism is a position of knowledge. Atheism is a position of belief. If you look inside and find belief there, you are a theist. If you find no belief, you are an atheist. Hence, atheism and agnosticism are not mutually exclusive terms. Get it right.
@7TriangleofTrinity7 It depends on what belief you are talking about. You are right if the "belief" is a belief in (G/g)od(s). On the other hand atheists still believe in something - they believe totally in reality of a universe without (G/g)od(s). An agnostic believes in nothing because he/she sees a lack of evidence for both theism and atheism.
@TagRation I suppose I was just not content with your use of "knowledge" and "belief". I debated it in my head, and came to the conclusion that you're right. I was considering agnosticism as a position of absolute belief in the impossibility of proving/disproving God [or G/god(s)]. I realize now that it is moreso a doubt in the credibility of evidence supporting or refuting God's (fuck it, I'm just going with the singular "God") existence -- not an absolute statement. Cheers.
interesting but not quite quite right.atheism is actual belief there's no god. if you find no belief on the subject, all you're left with is 'I don't know', which is agnosticism. if you define agnosticism as following 'not knowing whether there's a god', then everyone in her right mind should be agnostic, for no one can claim knowledge on the subject.
so atheism and agnosticism are somewhat exclusive : agnosticism is : don't know, don't believe either.
Nope. He got it dead on. We can both agree that it's an issue of not knowing, but when you say you 'don't believe either', what are you disbelieving? Either the positive or negative claim. Therefore either making the person an agnostic theist or atheist.
I wonder what the probability is of being dropped out of an airplane onto a vertically built city and falling between the buildings rather than on top of them..... are there any aerodynamic effects that would cause you to be pushed away from the buildings?
people feel like they their music is unappreciated by the public but they never give big time artist a chance, because there in the mainstream. just because your listening to underground music doesn't give you an open mind. why is it that every time i listen to an a underground artist on youtube someone always says "lil wayne sucks". do ur hw and find out why people like what they like. dont listen to "lollipop"(which sucks) listen to "receipt". educate yourself on all levels of hip hop
I won't say that religious followers are intellectually-incompetent, by design. Its all about the application of what it is that you're studying. I've met a few Christians who were very intelligent, but they're the exception, ofcourse.
Its easy to ridicule Scientologist, obviously. But, there's more under the surface of what we think we know about their origin.
I think El-P is an atheist. Probably Trent Reznor is as well.
@SubliminalMinded2011 I would consider atheist the dumbest of them all seeing that their belief if just as faith based as any other organized religion. Being agnostic I can understand and respect. Scientology is New world order trash!
The average westernized civilian gets scared when you tell them you don't belong any religion.
It appears shakey & unstable to them. But the majority of them don't research & study the origins of all the texts they're reading (as well as the authors). As far as NWO, thats mostly propaganda by Christianity to scare us into thinking the gov't is forcing satanism. By definition, the NWO started centuries ago.
even if atheism was faith based it still wouldn't be as dumb as any other organized religion since it isn't an organized religion... but it's not faith based, being an atheist merely means that one does not believe there is a god..... the statements "I don't believe there is a god" and "I don't believe there is not a god" are both equally logical positions, whereas the statements "I believe there is no god" and "I believe there is a god" are both equally illogical. Agnostics are just pussies.
@IsaacKarjala You missed the mark, hops. The reason a belief in a god is illogical is because there is insufficient evidence to prove its existence. You can reject the basis for belief in a god or accept the basis for a disbelief in god on the grounds that there isn't enough evidence. The onus of proof lay on the person asserting a truth claim (ie: God exists). "I don't believe there is not a god" is a double negative which is another way of saying "I believe there is a god"
Claiming there is no god is just as much a "truth claim" as claiming there is one. Both claims are unprovable by the definition of the word "god" alone. There is historical and psychological evidence supporting the claim that the human perception of a god is false, but even that doesn't prove that god doesn't exist.The statement "I don't believe there is no god" is a claim of ignorance, it is not a double negative since "don't" refers to the lack of belief while "no" refers to the lack of a god.
@IsaacKarjala That is one of the most nonsensical arguments I have ever seen.
No wonder it isn't enough evidence. You can't prove a negative. Look up argument from ignorance. We can't disprove unicorns or goblins.
"I don't believe there is no god" is indeed a double negative. Yes and no are dichotomous, meaning they are logically exhaustive. If not YES, then NO. "I don't believe there is no god = I do believe there is a god."
Learn some logic if you're going to try to debate using it.
You do understand that the word "belief" indicates a /degree/ of confidence and the statement "don't believe" merely indicates that the degree of confidence is not sufficient to be qualify as "belief". "don't believe" does not indicate an opposite belief. For the statements "I don't believe there is no god" and "I believe there is a god" to be equivalent would require that "don't believe" indicates an opposite belief, which it does not.
@IsaacKarjala The limb you were out on has long since snapped. By your definition agnostics (who suspend belief in god - a state of belief that is neutral or indifferent vs. against or for) are no different than atheists.
Don't believe is a negative affirmation meaning one believes there is no god.
There's no shame in being wrong. Everyone is on a regular basis. However, there is a hell of a lot of shame in being close-minded and dogmatic.
I never gave a definition of agnostic, and what I did say about agnostics was not based on logical deduction but personal observation. You are correct that the definition of agnostic that you are attributing to me is in conflict with the statement "'no believe' does not indicate an opposite belief", but I never gave that definition.
There's no shame in being wrong. Everyone is on a regular basis. However, there is a hell of a lot of shame in being close-minded and dogmatic.

@yusifer Music is to feel, not to listen, is entertainment. Stop getting educated by music, 'cause music is vicious, no matter the hero you follow. It ain't gonna save you. Music is an industry is about money in exchange for fun, remember that. Go to school if you want your mind built right, work to achieve your dreams, get your priorities straight, amplify your knowledge through personal experimentation, that is the best. If music is what you want, make music. otherwise, F*k it, it is just4fun!
@damnrock I totally agree with you, but in order to feel music, you have to use your ears first.... if you don't listen carefully, how are you supposed to feel it to it's full extent? Music is extremely dense, even the simplest of music. Certain frequencies affect specific feelings, and the combination of the, dare I say 'right' frequencies affect feelings on a more general level.... but you're right... just have some fucking fun with it... I sure as hell do!
Luckily I'm one of the few people who can (now) like both sides of hip-hop. Take music for what it's for and stop arguing about. Lil' Wayne is(was tbh) dope in his own way. And El-P is dope in his own way. And this comes from a Def Jux parishioner who swears El-P is the GOD when it comes to hip hop.
From Quasimoto to El-P, Last Emporer to Samiyam, there's always a debate about how it's 'real' hip-hop and Lil Wayne (like specifically Lil Wayne he's literally always mentioned) blows. I agree, Lil Wayne does blow, but everyone fucking knows this already so saying it just gets annoying.
These are the kind of videos that keep me very inspire when i'm making music. Check out my new song "Let it all go by Flomaticc" you can also download my music @ Flomaticc . com. I love reviews and feedback.
I must thank you for this comment. Thank you for helping me find some new artists to listen to. I've been searching here and there for quite some time, and this has done me a big favor. =)
and the line "just a working example of faith versus physics" comes after "no atheists in the foxholes, no intellect in the air, no scientists on the way down" i think its about religion causing all these irrational facts. the fly people are definitely symbolising a religion, one line says "Our bible is in your seat back pocket"
The lines you are quoting fit what I say. Atheists and intellect tell him that he will crush to the floor and die - so NOW, and only in the moment, an existing God yould be "useful" for him.
And the bible in the seat back is for those people who are afraid to fly anyway and thus pray to God so that he will "keep them in the sky" :)
so does anybody know what the lyrics are about? i can hear "there are no atheists in the foxholes, no intellect in the air" are they critizing the fact that irrational people who believe in medieval stories like religion are controlling nations?
It's mainly about what the video shows. It's about a guy falling down after an airplain crashed or something (last line 1st stanza: "30 thousand and dropping it's on and popping at last"). Now, close to death, he rediscovers his "faith" and prays for somebody to "keep me in the sky", saving his life; promising never to be disbeliving again.
Last line of chorus: "Just a working example of faith versus physics!"
its definitely not just about the video, trent reznor is an atheist and is always dissing religion in his music so he must've collaborated with these guys for some reason
As the guy only becomes "religious" facing near death, the song is mocking about God/religion as "the last possible way out" for some people. It's like the song was saying "either you believe or you don't!", you know? Like these people who explain those things with God that have not (yet) been explained by science.
wow thats weird a lot of his songs mention god but i always thought in a criticizing way "god is dead, and no-one cares" etc. I noticed how Fyentology must be referring to scientology
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
lol I saw this guy was on Top Ten White Lyricists, I don't see how. Theres whiteboys from my hometown that would rip this dude. Not hating, just don't understand how people would have in so high on white MC lists. I could name 20 white MC's better.
The song has good production if you buy the cd.. the video obviously lost quality when it was transferred to this form. I was gonna rant on ya but whatever bro j dilla and illmind are dope too. The hip hop community has gotta stop attacking each other and we gotta start pickin our battles! UNITY PEOPLE! on that note, yall should check out invincible.. she is a really dope female emcee who deserves recognition. peace
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this production sucks...rather listen to some J.Dilla or J.Rawls or Illmind any day...and to the faggot somewhere on these comments EMINEM'S A FUCKIN RETARD! JUST LIKE YOU :]
Few people like seriously El P, u don't like ok, but if u say he sucks u can know all the people u said that u look anyway some1 who doesn't understand anythin', homie
"There are no atheists in the foxholes, there is no intellect in the air, there are no scientists on the way down, just a working example of faith vs. physics."
I know a lot of people may protest against my statement, but it's just an opinion. So, in my opinion, El-P and Eminem are the best rappers I've ever heard of. Although most think Eminem sells for making shit, I don't. He often talks back to the media and issues problems with the world through his songs, and uses real-life experiences, or just fairytales. It's all apart of creativity. El-P is amazing, he has interesting content to his songs, and they're all creative. Especially this one.
@Nisp Why respect eminem? he features lil wayne on his latest album. Do you approve of the leader who promotes a terrorist or criminal ? just because he personally hasnt commited a major offense to hip hop, it doesnt make him innocent.
@elevenmatrixeleven I totally agree, I made that comment like 11 months ago and I don't follow mainstream hip-hop at all so I didn't even know that. I never said I liked or respected him just that he's the lesser of the evils.
@elevenmatrixeleven If you still look at hip-hop as either Wayne or El-P you're the problem. There's room for everyone, believe me, I've been listening to El since Funcrusher and Rawkus 12"'s Wayne's got shit too that's just as good.
@mikebones1 No disrespect to a fellow hip hop lover, but i used to listen to alot of lil wayne before my tastes went "underground" please point out something that weezy has done that has contributed to, or revolutionized hip hop in any way ? I dont deny that he's catchy and sounds cool, but i dont think thats what hip hops about. I also want to know what problem i'm creating, im not necc even a big El-P fan but almost anything underground > Weezy. Sorry but i disagree with ya lol.
@mikebones1 that's like, your opinion man.........which you're entitled to, but to me, the afore mentioned pop act that can be seen/heard on 106th & Park, Teen Choice Awrads, Kiss FM, and other sheeple loving outlets is garbage......
@AEgamesFtw I agree he is a sellout and an overall douchebag, and i'm definitely not a fan. I do think he is one of the lesser of the evils in mainstream hip-hop though, but that doesn't mean I don't think he is still evil.
@Nisp Eminem seems to be corporate as fuck and cheers on the new world agenda. His subliminal messages are as bad as disney's mickey mouse club. Wake up time my friends. Underground underpaid for a reason. Freemasonry runs mainstream music, period. Do your homework children.
@TruthSmack I'm not even an Eminem fan and don't listen to his music so I cant confirm or refute what you are saying but id doesnt surprise me. It's not freemasonry though lol its just the fuckin bullshit labels and corporations, mainstream music isn't even worth listening to.
@MISSdirection1992 Well no one said anything about Beaver until you just did. So your comment is exactly how it gets brought up in every video. Congratulations.
Guys like El-P are creative as opposed to carbon copying the same hooks and rhymes about ho's and pimps in the club that gets all exposure because most people don't give a fuck about innovation. The general masses are so shallow that they cannot be bothered with anything that you actually have to LISTEN to. This is the case with ALL music, not just hip-hop.
Very true. There's too much bullshit getting spread around these days. The people need more folks like the Ol' Dirty Bastard, El-P, Immortal Technique, etc. You've also got good musicians in totally different genres who deserve a lot more credit.
wes listen up everuone you need to just live yuour life. dont thinki you can depend family or the government or police to keep yu safe. we're all in this together, the cops, you, me, our families, and the govnmernment, we are all in this together. Just live your life, dont get involved in others lives, and youl be set. This is just the moral of the song, so anyway ,,,
@yusifer Same with any kind of media, really. Books, film, art, you name it. People like what other people like because they're afraid to think for themselves. Hell, you could argue that they're TAUGHT not to think for themselves. To quote Terence McKenna, ""Culture is like being taken in a craps game. If you play long enough, you will figure out you're being screwed... Culturally defined reality is some kind of an intelligence test; and those who are joining are failing the test."
@snubbs741 Well you obviously got me confused with someone else because I did not even mention lil waynes name in any previous comments... but who cares...
looks like you got a taste for some, unfiltered, corny, cliche, ridiculous shit. The fools on your page are fake as fuck. El-P is sicker than AIDS. Nas hasn't been dope since illmatic.
thats because fake kids come and messed everthing up... so what he hasnt been good for long, but he was, and thats it. and i dont only like "Dirty Filthy Rap"
i like all kinds of music "Rap" only some maybe most if not yeah.
Where the fuck u been all this time? U need a breaking bad to discovered u this?!? Shit, this guy is classic, and if u listened a rap, u should know for him

this kind of music is not for people that like beats and stupid shit. this is for people that like lyrcs.
EL-P never seems to dissappoint me. all of his gongs have this cryptic meaning to them that is fun to just decipher.

and the line "just a working example of faith versus physics" comes after "no atheists in the foxholes, no intellect in the air, no scientists on the way down" i think its about religion causing all these irrational facts. the fly people are definitely symbolising a religion, one line says "Our bible is in your seat back pocket"
kirmokin 2 years ago
The lines you are quoting fit what I say. Atheists and intellect tell him that he will crush to the floor and die - so NOW, and only in the moment, an existing God yould be "useful" for him.
And the bible in the seat back is for those people who are afraid to fly anyway and thus pray to God so that he will "keep them in the sky" :)

kirmokin 2 years ago
It's mainly about what the video shows. It's about a guy falling down after an airplain crashed or something (last line 1st stanza: "30 thousand and dropping it's on and popping at last"). Now, close to death, he rediscovers his "faith" and prays for somebody to "keep me in the sky", saving his life; promising never to be disbeliving again.
Last line of chorus: "Just a working example of faith versus physics!"
Toby1789 2 years ago
its definitely not just about the video, trent reznor is an atheist and is always dissing religion in his music so he must've collaborated with these guys for some reason
kirmokin 2 years ago
This is what I meant.
As the guy only becomes "religious" facing near death, the song is mocking about God/religion as "the last possible way out" for some people. It's like the song was saying "either you believe or you don't!", you know? Like these people who explain those things with God that have not (yet) been explained by science.
Fuck, I just can't put it in the right words :D

I know a lot of people may protest against my statement, but it's just an opinion. So, in my opinion, El-P and Eminem are the best rappers I've ever heard of. Although most think Eminem sells for making shit, I don't. He often talks back to the media and issues problems with the world through his songs, and uses real-life experiences, or just fairytales. It's all apart of creativity. El-P is amazing, he has interesting content to his songs, and they're all creative. Especially this one.

I dont deny that he's catchy and sounds cool, but i dont think thats what hip hops about. I also want to know what problem i'm creating, im not necc even a big El-P fan but almost anything underground > Weezy. Sorry but i disagree with ya lol.

Guys like El-P are creative as opposed to carbon copying the same hooks and rhymes about ho's and pimps in the club that gets all exposure because most people don't give a fuck about innovation. The general masses are so shallow that they cannot be bothered with anything that you actually have to LISTEN to. This is the case with ALL music, not just hip-hop.
yusifer 2 years ago 50
Very true. There's too much bullshit getting spread around these days. The people need more folks like the Ol' Dirty Bastard, El-P, Immortal Technique, etc. You've also got good musicians in totally different genres who deserve a lot more credit.
Good points made there, yusifer.

@yusifer Same with any kind of media, really. Books, film, art, you name it. People like what other people like because they're afraid to think for themselves. Hell, you could argue that they're TAUGHT not to think for themselves. To quote Terence McKenna, ""Culture is like being taken in a craps game. If you play long enough, you will figure out you're being screwed... Culturally defined reality is some kind of an intelligence test; and those who are joining are failing the test."
