A Very Interesting Conversation!

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 eye?

Student : Since no one has ever observed the Process of Evolution at
work and
Cannot even prove that this Process is an On-Going Endeavour,
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:

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 them to Increase their Knowledge . . . or FAITH.

That student was Albert Einstein.

anuchi ay ryan, wow! i was really facinated by the conversation between the student and the professor. as i was reading towards the middle of the exchange, it reminded me of a famous scientist that i once read before but i wasn´t certain who he was. now I figured it out when i arrived to the end of your note. thanks for refreshing my memory about Albert Einstein. i enjoyed the conversation a lot!

wow!!! ang ganda naman po!halos nsbi ko na nga po lhat ng endearment n alam ko nung nbsa ko ehh!! imagine poe!!a very famous scientist talks about FAITH in GOD!!! hmmm... i think poe this will serve as a very good inspiration and learning lalong-lalo na po to my fellow teens of today's generation.. napakagaling poe tlaga ng idol ko (albert einstein).. ^_^.. actually poe,, mhilig din po ako sa science and gus2 ko pong mag-aral ng philosophy. pero hndi ko pa rin po nkakalimutan faith ko ky GOD.. BEST IN RELIGION pa nga po ako eh.. hehe... pwede ko po bang iprint out yang conversation.??. gus2 ko lang po kasing ipabasa sa mga fellow youth ko d2 sa manila na mkikitid ang isip.??. ^_^...tnx po..

Do as you wish after all it's a General publication

A very intelligent discussion. However i will go on the logic of the student. They are both playing each others mind yet it went in a way not anticipated by the prof. Sometimes this happen but good thing here is the prof's willingness to accept a loss in a discussion to a student. At times in real life, some profs do not accept this fate anyway.

But I think the student is not Einstein. Einstein is a big NON believer of God and he is very vocal about that.
