Dear all,
Hope you enjoy reading it. Taken from FB.....
Peace!
=========================================================================================================
TAKE TIME TO READ. It's worth reading it. Trust me :)
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 theater.)
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.
P.S.
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 this to increase their knowledge … or FAITH.

The holy prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was insulted many many times during his lifetime, he forgave all personal insults and patiently educated our forefathers about Islam. For his patience and forgiveness many became Muslims over the ages.
During the age of Facebook, we have to learn how to deal with it.
Hope Allah (SWT) grant us wisdom to act according to true spirit of Islam.
Shalom!

If someone insulted the Qur'an, it could have been resolved peacefully by educating the person. Current administration needs to do more than just blame others. They are in power and need to set aside political talks and get down to business of running the country for a change.
Blaming is not the job of a sitting administration, their job is not protect EVERY citizen from such savage attacks.
Even the holy Qur'an ordered to respect religious places of all people. Who ever done this don't have any knowledge of Islam.

Insulting Quran picture in face book leads to violence in Coxsbazar
A section of unruly elements over a derogatory photo of the Holy Quran on facebook set ablaze at least six Buddhist pagodas and 30 homes at Merunloa village under Ramu upazila in Cox'sBazar district on Saturday night.Nazibul Alam, Officer-in-Charge(OC) of Ramu Police Station, said, at least four people were injured in the mayhem that continued in the area for about two hours on Saturday night after ayouth reportedly posted a photograph disgracing the Holy Quran on the wall of his facebook.Police arrested Uttam Kumar Barua, a resident of Baruapara, for his alleged involvement. The protesters blamed the blasphemous photo on the wall of a facebook for the violence.But it was not immediately clearif Uttam Kumar actually did it...On Sunday morning, the Cox'sBazar district administration imposed section 144 in Ramu to prevent furtheruntoward situation.Soon after the violence, Uttam'sfacebook account was closed and police escorted him and his mother to safety,said the SP.The mob gathered on the roads at10.30 pm on Saturday night and chanted slogans against insulting of the HolyQuran.Since Sunday morning, Army, BGB,RAB and police have been guarding all the 27 Buddhist monasteries and pagodasin Ramu while police forces have been deployed in all other areas where theviolence broke out.The Buddhists, meanwhile, stageda human chain protest at the port city demanding exemplary punishment againstthe attackers warning that otherwise members of the community would wage agreater protest.We condemn the Buddhist boy who is responsible for the insulting Quran picture in Facebook.Action should be taken against him.At the same time all those who attacked the Buddhist temples and houses should be punished. No innocent person can be made responsible for the action of another person.The temples should be rebuilt on government expenses and affected people should be compensated."
