    another one..............

    hi sudha

    thanx for liking the post.

    hi all,
    here is another one fwd msg........

    A woman was at work when she received a phone call that her daughter
    was very sick with a fever. She left her work and stopped by the
    pharmacy to get some medication for her daughter.

    Upon returning to her car she found that she had locked her keys in
    the
    car. She was in a hurry to get home to her sick daughter. She didn't
    know what to do, so she called her home and told the baby sitter what
    had happened and that she did not know what to do.

    The baby sitter told her that her daughter was getting worse. She
    said,
    "You might find a coat hanger and use that to open the door." The
    woman looked around and found an old rusty coat hanger that had been
    thrown down on the ground, possibly by someone else who at some time
    or other had locked their keys in their car. Then she looked at the
    hanger and said, "I don't know how to use this." So she bowed her
    head and asked God to send her some help.

    Within five minutes an old rusty car pulled up, with a dirty, greasy,
    bearded man who was wearing an old biker skull rag on his head. The
    woman thought, "This is what you sent to help me?" But, she was
    desperate, so she was also very thankful.

    The man got out of his car and asked her if he could help. She said,
    "Yes, my daughter is very sick. I stopped to get her some medication
    and
    I locked my keys in my car. I must get home to her. Please, can you
    use this hanger to unlock my car?"

    He said, "Sure". He walked over to the car, and in less than one
    minute
    the car was opened.

    She hugged the man and through her tears she said, "Thank You So
    Much! You are a very nice man."

    The man replied, "Lady, I am not a nice man. I just got out of prison
    yesterday. I was in prison for car theft and have only been out less
    than 24 hours."

    The woman hugged the man again and with sobbing tears cried out loud,
    "Oh, Thank you God! You even sent me a Professional!"

    God may not always send us what we expect, but He will always send us
    what we need. It's up to us to have the wisdom to recognize the
    difference and be thankful.

    Have a nice day

    Dear sonia,
    I went thro your fwd msg. I too feel that God helps us when we are in dire need. I myself had experienced that.
    No offense meant, but, I felt that there are some discripancies in that story. First of all, how can one lock the car with the keys inside? You need the key or the electronic lock to lock it. And another is, the lady could have left the car and went off home by taxi, she could have picked up the car later. Then, as she had gone to a medical shop, surely those people could have helped her. And the baby sitter saying tht one could find a coat hanger seems to be not right.
    Pl. excuse me, but I also believe in the motto "God helps those who help themselves".
    With war wishes,
    varloo

    hi varloo

    dear varloo,

    I think the writer of d story wants to give us a story- example for existance of GOD . Yes, there r other options for d lady but if writer will give her other option then he can't explain abt GOD'S existance.(Or may b it is a true experience of some body).

    Other thing is one can forget keys in d car . I did it , not even once but twice.

    love n rgds

    This one I read long time back, still..

    SHARED by: LC member, Francesca

    An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty.

    He asks one of his new Christian students to stand and.....

    Professor: You are a Christian, aren't you, son?

    Student : Yes, sir.

    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 good?

    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.

    Student : 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.

    (The lecture theatre becomes 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 is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

    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. Now tell me,
    Professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?

    Prof: 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 shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is 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 endeavour, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

    (The class is in uproar.)

    Student : Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the
    Professor's brain?

    (The class breaks 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 is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable.)

    Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.

    Student : That is it sir.. The link between man & God is FAITH.
    That is all that keeps things moving & alive

    hey Cheer,
    That was a really really good one.....one needs to be so clear to argue one 's point of view and present it properly...that student was really cool!
    Thanks for sharing!
