Professor You are a Christian aren’t you son…

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 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.
