Tema: Sobre los descubrimientos científicos y el ateísmo

Os pego algo que han colgado en facebook, pero desconozco si es cierto, porque creo que haber leído en muchos sitios que él era judío y no practicante y que no era ateo, sino deísta. Está en inglés, pero es fácilmente entendible, aunque tengas un nivel pobre.

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 ofcancer even though he prayed to GOD to heal him. Most of us would attempt tohelp others who are ill. But GOD didn’t. How is this GOD good then? Hmm?

(Studentwas silent.)

Professor: You can’t answer, canyou ? Let’s startagain, young fella. Is GOD good?

Student : Yes.

Professor: Is satan good ?

Student : No.

Professor: Where does satan comefrom ?

Student : From … GOD …

Professor: That’s right. Tell meson, 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 have5 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 haveever heard your GOD?

Student : No , sir.

Professor: Have you ever feltyour GOD, tasted your GOD, smelt your GOD? Have you ever had any sensoryperception of GOD for that matter?

Student : No, sir. I’m afraid Ihaven’t.

Professor: Yet you still believein Him?

Student : Yes.

Professor : According toEmpirical, Testable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says your GOD doesn’texist. What do you say to that, son?

Student : Nothing. I only have myfaith.

Professor: Yes, faith. And thatis the problem Science has.

Student : Professor, is theresuch a thing as heat?

Professor: Yes.

Student : And is there such athing as cold?

Professor: Yes.

Student : No, sir. There isn’t.

(The lecture theater became veryquiet with this turn of events.)

Student : Sir, you can have lotsof heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or noheat. But we don’t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zerowhich is no heat, but we can’t go any further after that. There is no suchthing as cold. Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. Wecannot measure cold. Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir,just the absence of it.

(There was pin-drop silence inthe lecture theater.)

Student : What about darkness,Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Professor: Yes. What is night ifthere isn’t darkness?

Student : You’re wrong again,sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normallight, bright light, flashing light. But if you have no light constantly, youhave nothing and its called darkness, isn’t it? In reality, darkness isn’t. Ifit is, well you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn’t you?

Professor: So what is the pointyou are making, young man ?

Student : Sir, my point is yourphilosophical premise is flawed.

Professor: Flawed ? Can youexplain how?

Student : Sir, you are working onthe premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a goodGOD 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 useselectricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understoodeither one. To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the factthat death cannot exist as a substantive thing.

Death is not the opposite oflife: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor, do you teach yourstudents that they evolved from a monkey?

Professor: If you are referringto the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.

Student : Have you ever observedevolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shook his headwith a smile, beginning to realize where the argument was going.)

Student : Since no one has everobserved the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that thisprocess is an on-going endeavor. Are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Areyou not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class was in uproar.)

Student : Is there anyone in theclass who has ever seen the Professor’s brain?

(The class broke out intolaughter. )

Student : Is there anyone herewho has ever heard the Professor’s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No oneappears to have done so. So, according to the established Rules of Empirical,Stable, Demonstrable Protocol, Science says that you have no brain, sir. Withall due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room was silent. TheProfessor stared at the student, his face unfathomable.)

Professor: I guess you’ll have totake them on faith, son.

Student : That is it sir …Exactly ! The link between man & GOD is FAITH. That is all that keepsthings alive and moving.

P.S.

I believe you have enjoyed theconversation. And if so, you’ll probably want your friends / colleagues toenjoy the same, won’t you?

Forward this to increase theirknowledge … or FAITH.

By the way, that student wasEINSTEIN.
