Tony Starch is Ironing Man.
Author: Nathan Campbell
Nathan runs St Eutychus. He loves Jesus. His wife. His daughter. His son. His other daughter. His dog. Coffee. And the Internet. He is the pastor of City South Presbyterian Church, a church in Brisbane, a graduate of Queensland Theological College (M. Div) and the Queensland University of Technology (B. Journ). He spent a significant portion of his pre-ministry-as-a-full-time-job life working in Public Relations, and now loves promoting Jesus in Brisbane and online. He can't believe how great it is that people pay him to talk and think about Jesus. If you'd like to support his writing financially you can do that by giving to his church.

Hacking Hawkings
I hereby launch a conspiracy theory into the wild.
Respected theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking has a degenerative muscle disease that means he communicates with the aid of a machine.
In recent weeks Hawking has made two slightly controversial claims – claims that if not made by a respected theoretical physicist would be laughed off as science fiction. Firstly, he claimed that we shouldn’t seek aliens out because they’re unlikely to be friendly. Secondly, he suggested that time travel is possible under certain parameters.
I think that it is plausible that some science fiction geeks have hacked into Hawking’s computerised voice box forcing him to make such outlandish claims.

The future of church music
I don’t want to sound like a total Apple fanboy (I remember when I used to be an unfanboy) – but the iPhone is the future of music in church. Don’t believe me?
The real question is how emo “worship” leaders are going to manage procreation without a guitar to attract the ladies…
Some new music
I’ve heard this song on the Js a few times. I really like it.
Here’s an acoustic version.

Interesting panel discussion on atheism
I’ve got a bunch of things to say about atheism in a later post. But you should watch this video, if you have 30 minutes…

Why I’m not Anglican (or Catholic)
It’s mostly the clothes. To be honest.
I don’t want to look like a Rubik’s cube.
Or a motherboard.

YouTube Tuesday: The Rock’n’Roll bonanza
Jacob Aranza was right.
Rock and Roll is for Klingons (who Jesus hates).
Even the Catholics are onto you back masking rock stars – I’ve always wondered why “another one bites the dust” made me want to start smoking marijuana:
Crystal ball gazing is going to get you into trouble…
But, Aranza was wrong. There is no such thing as “Christian rock”… this comes in eight parts (I’ve started this at the relevant bit, the background is that this guy is a prophet of true Christianity).
I think this guy also thinks coffee and failing businesses are Satan’s work.
The solution is to be less enthusiastic in our singing.
