[Music] No yeah Oh oh yeah [Music] you know friends they tell the anecdote about these two boys in London who are driving on a bicycle and after a half an hour of driving their bike a policeman stops them and he tells them he said I'll tell you the truth when I saw you driving I decided I'm going to bust you I'm going to follow you and I'm going to catch you doing something illegal and I'm going to give you a summons but for the last thirty minutes you have not violated the law even in a single instance tell me how do you do this and the boys turned to him and they say because God is with us he said ah it's against the law to have three on a bike you get a ticket anecdote number two there was once a very enlightened father who did not appreciate the fact that his child harbored and professed a simple faith in God's existence but all of his arguments fell on deaf ears so how do you destroyed your child from his faith so the father decided to take a piece of a take up a little piece of paper scrap a paper and he wrote on it a few words God is know we're and he placed it under the pillow of his child during his sleep hoping when he wakes up in the morning and he gets this heavenly note that God is nowhere finally he will sober up from his faith in the morning this little boy wakes up discovers this note comes running to his father and says daddy you will not believe the message I received
