The Prof And D Stdt by Sicozone(m): 7:11pm On Feb 19, 2013
ENJOY THE CONVERSATION... 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.
