Is it God's Creation Good and Evil Folks? Light and darkness


Let me try the first part of the conversation between

Einstein and his Professor: The Prof throws many questions as follows: Is God good? Is God all-powerful?

Then he says: 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 is silent.)

Then he asks

Is Satan good?  Where does Satan come from?

Tell me son, is there evil in this world?  So who created evil? (Student does not answer.)

Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness?

All these terrible things exist in the world, don't they?

So, who created them? 


Now the turn of Einstein to question the Prof: Professor,

Is there such a thing as heat? Prof: Yes.

Student: And is there such a thing as cold? Prof: Yes.

Student: No sir. There isn't.

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 .

 


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

Prof: 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 it's called darkness, isn't it? In reality, darkness isn't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?


Prof:   So what is the point you are making, young man?


Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.


Prof: 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.


 Student:
That is it sir... The link between man & God is FAITH.

That is all that keeps things moving & alive.
