One Of The Best Arguments.!! I have ever read
Don’t miss even a single word…. It’s Too good
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to hisclass 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?
Prof: My brother died of cancer even though heprayed 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?
Student: From….God…
Prof: That’s right. Tell me son, is there evil inthis world?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn’t it? And God didmake 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 toidentify 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 thatmatter?
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 sciencehas.
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 the after becomes very quiet with thisturn of events.)
Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even moreheat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat..
But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can’t go any further afterthat. There is no such thing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describethe absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy Cold is not theopposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it .
(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)
Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is theresuch a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn’t darkness?
Student : You’re wrong again, sir. Darkness is theabsence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright
light, flashing light…..But if you have no lightconstantly, 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’tyou?
Prof: So what is the point you are making, youngman?
Student: Sir, my point is your philosophicalpremise is flawed.
Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise ofduality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a badGod. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we canmeasure. Sir, science can’t even explain a thought.. It uses electricity andmagnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.To viewdeath as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannotexist as a substantive thing. Death is
not the opposite of life: just the absence of it.
Now tell me, Professor.Do you teach your studentsthat they evolved from a monkey?
Prof: If you are referring to the naturalevolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with yourown 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 processof evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-goingendeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but apreacher? (The class is in uproar.)
Student: Is there anyone in the class who has everseen the Professor’s brain?
(The class breaks out into laughter.)
Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heardthe Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to havedone so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable,demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain,sir. With all duerespect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room is silent. The professor stares at thestudent, 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.
I believe you have enjoyed the conversation…and ifso…you’ll probably want your friends/colleagues to enjoy the same…won’tyou?….this is a true story, and the
student was none other than …….
