What a story I had to share,
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: Is GOD all powerful ?
Student : Yes.
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 this 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 did not answer.)
Professor: Is there sickness?
Immorality? 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 theater 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 pin-drop silence in the
lecture theater.)
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 its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. If it
is, well 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,
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 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 & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keeps things alive and
moving.
So WOW
