A man went to a barber shop to have his hair and
his beard cut as always.
He
started to have a good conversation with the barber
who attended him.
They talked about so many things and various subjects.
suddenly, they
touched the subject of God.
The
barber said: Look man, I dont believe
that God exists as you say so.
Why
do you say that? - asked the client.
Well,
its so easy, you just have to go out in
the street to realize that
God does not exist. Oh, tell me, if God existed,
would there be so many sick
people? Would there be abandoned children? If
God existed, there would be no
suffering nor pain. I cant think of a God
who permits all of these things.
The
client stopped for a moment thinking but he didnt
want to respond so as
to prevent an argument. The barber finished his
job and the client went out
of the shop. Just after he left the barber shop
he saw a man in the street
with a long hair and beard (it seems that it had
been a long time since he
had his cut and he looked so untidy).
Then
the client again entered the barber shop and he
said to the barber:
know what? Barbers do not exist.
How
come they dont exist?-asked the barber.
Well I am here and I am a
barber.
No!
- the client exclaimed. They dont
exist because if they did there
would be no people with long hair and beard like
that man who walks in the
street.
Ah,
barbers do exist, what happens is that people
do not come to me.
Exactly!-
affirmed the client. Thats the point.
GOD does exist, what
happens is people dont go to Him and do
not look for Him thats why theres
so much pain and suffering in the world.
If
you like it, send it to other people. If you think
God does not exist,
dont do it.
