Don't
miss even a single word... Too good
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science
has with God, The Almighty.
He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
Prof:
So you believe in God?
Student:
Absolutely, sir.
Prof :
Is God good?
Student: Sure..
Prof: Is
God all-powerful?
Student :
Yes.
Prof: 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 this
God good then? Hmm? (Student is silent.)
Prof: You
can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Is
Satan good?
Student :
No.
Prof: Where
does Satan come from?
S
tudent: From...God.....
Prof: That's
right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Evil
is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Prof: So
who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)
Prof: Is
there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things
exist in the world, don't they?
Student: Yes,
sir.
Prof: So,
who created them?
(Student has no answer.)
Prof: 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.
Prof: Tell
us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No,
sir.
Prof: 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.
Prof: Yet
you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.
Prof: 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.
Prof: Yes.
Faith. And that is the problem science has.
Student: Professor,
is there such a thing as heat?
Prof:
Yes.
Student: And is there
such a thing as cold?
Prof:
Yes.
Student: No
sir. There isn't.
(The lecture theater becomes 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
is pin-drop silence in the lecture theater.)
Student: What
about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof:
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 were you would be able to make darkness
darker, wouldn't you?
Student: Now tell me,
Professor.Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Prof:
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 shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where
the argument is 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 is in
uproar.)
Student: Is
there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's brain?
(The class breaks 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, demonstrable protocol, science
says that you have no brain,sir.
With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)
Prof:
I guess you'll have
to take them on faith, son.
Student: That
is it sir.... The
link between man & god is FAITH .
That is all that keeps things moving & alive.
this is a true story, and the student
was none other than.........
