A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and
his beard trimmed. As
the barber began to work, they began to have a
good conversation.
They talked about so many things and various
subjects. When they
eventually touched on the subject of God, the
barber said: "I don't
believe that God exists."
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.
"Well, you just have to go out in the street to
realize that God
doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would
there be so many sick
people? Would there be abandoned children? If
God existed, there
would be neither suffering nor pain. I can't
imagine a loving a God
who would allow all of these things."
The customer thought for a moment, but didn't
respond because he
didn't want to start an argument. The barber
finished his job and
the customer left the shop. Just after he left
the barbershop, he
saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an
untrimmed beard.
He looked dirty and unkempt..
The customer turned back and entered the barber
shop again and he
said to the barber: "You know what? Barbers do
not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised
barber. "I am here, and
I am a barber. And I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't
exist because if they
did, there would be no people with dirty long
hair and untrimmed
beards, like that man outside."
"Ah, but barbers DO exist! " answered the
barber. " What happens,
is, people do not come to me."
"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer. "That's the
point! God, too, DOES exist! What happens, is,
people don't go to Him and do not look for
Him. That's why there's so much pain and
suffering in the world."
If you think God exists, forward this on to
other people---
If you think God does not exist, just delete it!
