Whether GOD Exist or NOT?

Friends ,
I have come through a good conversation between a Professor and a Student.There is a talk on GOD...............I would like to have different views from readers what they think about this conversation and whether they agree or disagree in any way....totally or partly.
I will give my views after reading your comments....but would like to hear from you all how you all look at this conversation and how much you all agree and disagree with it.....

READ ON:

An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty.
He asks one of his new students to stand and.....

Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Prof : Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student : Yes.
Prof: 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.)
Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fella. Is God ood?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Is Satan good?
Student : No.
Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From...God...
Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Prof: 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?
Student: Yes, sir.
Prof: So, who created them?
(Student has no answer.)
Prof: 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.
Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: 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.
Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.
Prof: 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.
Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.

  1. When one probes something, he has to ask all the questions and cover things completely. we may have all 5 senses but we can not see stars by naked eye. We can not feel the infrared or UV rays. We can not perceive sounds that dogs or animals can listen. Our smelling sense is weak when we get cold. So assuming that GOD has a form is wrong. There are things like air which has no form and not even weight not perceived by any of the 5 senses still it can cause greatest damage with undue strength. Regarding evil, nothing is fully evil. An evil doer thinks that he is good. Evil is a perception. When there is a war between 2 countries, each one is evil to the other. Everybody fighting for their side or cause is martyr even if they are on the wrong side. Questioning is good but one should question with a conclusion or to prove something. Seek probe and question to find an answer. There is no mutiple choice question in case of sprirutal search. It is end less search. you observe and go ahead till you reach the conclusion either within this lifetime of with in the lifetimes of all humans. thanks for choosing this nice topic.

  2. correction pl. read the statement
    "Questioning is good but one should question with a conclusion or to prove something" as "Questioning is good but one should not question with a conclusion or to prove something"
    Sorry for the typo
    thanks
