- An Atheist Professor of Philosophy was speaking to his Class on the Problem Science has with GOD, the
- ALMIGHTY.
- He asked one of his New Christian Students to stand and . . .
- 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 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 Theatre )
- 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.
- NB: That student was Albert Einstein. (maybe not)
