INTELLIGENT CONVERSATIONS !!!
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, smell 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 theatre 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, were 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. P.S.
I believe you have enjoyed the conversation.
And if so, you’ll probably want your friends /
colleagues to enjoy the same, won’t you?
Forward this to increase their knowledge …
or FAITH. By the way, that student was EINSTEIN
