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 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.


NB:That student was Albert Einstein. Concentrate on this sentence ‘To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did’ When God takes something from your grasp, He’s not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence….. ‘The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.’ 

BELIEVE

Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long
Before we knew we could

Yet now I'm standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe

PROTON : Regressing or progressing?

We are in the 2010. 10 years till the supposed year we can be called a developed country. But our national car maker has made a "fantastic" action. By  trying to pass off a rebadged Mitsubishi Lancer as the Proton Inspira.

If I am not mistaken, this is the first time that Proton rebadged a car. Even the original Proton Saga in the year 1985 was designed from scratch except for the engine.(acceptable as then Proton has yet to build their own engine).

25 years into Proton's birth, this is what they have done. Granted, I think this is the best car they have ever produced quality-wise. The problem is, it really is not Proton's. It's Mitsubishi, and Mitsubishi is not Malaysian. Wake up, the clock is ticking. On this rate Vision 2020 will remain that. Just a vision.

Is there two classes of citizens in Malaysia?

After 47 years,we do not seem to know the basics of Malaysia. Of course I am Malaysian first, I held a Malaysian ID and my race is recorded in the birth certificate which i don’t carry unless needed.

Filling Official form – including private hospital form

I am always upset by the design of the form.To be Malaysian is not acknowledged or even important to the government. We have boxes for Malay, Chinese, Indian dan lain2. I dutifully write Malaysian of Dayak Iban origin. Inside of me, a fire is building up.

Then come the boxes for religion – Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Christian etc – I never fill that boxes, I am disgusted by the implication. When you apply for a government job i think race and religion do play a MAJOR part. If you do not agree with me, proof me wrong then I willgive you the evidence. I think the government should remove all boxes concerning races and religions in all official form unless it is truly necessary. Discrimination must be discouraged, meritocracy should be encouraged. What is the point of 1Malaysia if this is not seen to??

*Even Tun Dr. Mahathir, the great thinker, admitted that he doesn't understand 1Malaysia. What more can be said about ordinary citizens. :)

CHANGE WE NEED, CHANGE WE MUST

I have friends and classmates who are Malays and are very close to me. The article below is not about “race -  as in Malay” but is focus on “Government policies and the implementation of Malay Agenda”. These are facts while UMNO and Najib say something else and we must put our thought on what is truth and what is propaganda. Did our government leaders actually lead us to believe that they are fair to all races in Malaysia?. The answer is no.

BN surviving on “old politics”

My very close Malay friends looked at this article before i posted it and say that they are NOT  proud of such government approach towards uplifting the life of Malay. They agreed that we must now focus on being Malaysian. Those of my university classmates and friends noted that BN UMNO politics is way out dated. When we actually talk about Malaysian competitiveness in the global context, they are talking about how the people must be grateful to the government for helping them to achieve tertiary education and implement many “projects”. These are old politics which the young malaysian of all races are putting behind them.

It is the government that caused racial tension in Malaysia

The problem with “race-relationship” in Malaysia is not the work of ordinary Malaysian. It is the work of narrow minded politician and technocrat who despite their education and experience could not project forward their vision on what will make  Malaysia successful in future. The flavor and favor for Malays is an “old thing” when Malaya just gained independence and immediately after Malaysia was formed.

This racial approach as advocated by UMNO and  PERKASA must go – yet we see a large number of leaders in UMNO wanted the root cause of disunity stay in Malaysia. Then we hear Najib talked all sort of nonsense about being 1 Malaysia when the political party that he leads refuse to discard the Malay Agenda and embrace 1 Malaysia.

Sabah and Sarawak are victim of the Malay Agenda of the Federal Government

Sabah and Sarawak in particular suffer so much from the Malay Agenda approach. Federal politics keep Taib Mahmud around and tolerate his corrupt practices just because he is very pro- Malay Agenda. Like Najib, Taib talked about being fair to all etc but the result we see in Sarawak is different. Taib took the opportunity to make himself rich. Jabu understood this idea of bowing to the Federal Government Malay Agenda, for which the Malay themselves are embarrassed of the government policies and implementation of the Malay Agenda.

For native of Sarawak and Sabah, they say we are bumiputera. No body has to tell me anything about being a bumiputera – it is totally different then being a Malay. There is no comparison but politician used the word to gain business for themselves and their friends. This is the “cheat” mentality.

My message to all young Malaysian is for us to put an end to all these sources of DISUNITY among us. We must go forward as Malaysian. If BN is the source of such DISUNITY – which it is, we just vote them out in the coming election. We wanted to see a strong and united Malaysia, and today our government has caused us disunity and lack of real progress because of BN racist policies and implementation.

Study carefully the scenario below – please disagree with me if you think I have distorted the facts and our every day life experience. If it is true and you agree to it, Change WE must.

I love my school SMK St. Luke

5 years. 5 years I spent in this school. Situated on top of a hill, it was founded in 1863. Yes its old. And I love it. My dad went to school here. Basically, this is the place where I grew from a small boy to a young man today. In form 1, I was still the good kid. 2nd place in my exams.(never gotten 1st place) By form 2, everything changed. For the better or worse, I do not know. But I know what I did then shaped me to be what I am today. :) I was a bad boy. hee hee. careful, I might still be.

First post. and may there be many more to come :)

This blog was the product out of pure boredom. Strikes at 1.47am, 13 October 2010. I shall remain unanimous, and I will touch about just about anything that concerns this dear heart of mine. Booyyaaaaa!
