"Subject: Does Evil exist ?


Here's a little something for y'all to ponder,
> >>
> >> Did God create evil?
> >>
> >>
> >>
> >> A University professor at a well known institution of higher learning
> >> challenged his students with this question. "Did God create everything
> >> that exists?"
> >>
> >> A student bravely replied, "Yes he did!"
> >>
> >> "God created everything?" The professor asked.
> >>
> >> "Yes sir, he certainly did," the student replied.
> >>
> >> The professor answered, "If God created everything; then God created
> >> evil. And, since evil exists, and according to the principal that our
> >> works define who we are, then we can assume God is evil."
> >>
> >> The student became quiet and did not answer the professor's
hypothetical
> >> definition. The professor, quite pleased with himself, boasted to the
> >> students that he had proven once more that the Christian faith was a
> >> myth.
> >>
> >> Another student raised his hand and said, "May I ask you a question,
> >> professor?"
> >>
> >> "Of course", replied the professor.
> >>
> >> The student stood up and asked, "Professor, does cold exist?"
> >>
> >> "What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never
> >> been cold?" The other students snickered at the young man's question.
> >>
> >> The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to
> >> the laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of
> >> heat. Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or
> >> transmits energy and heat is what makes a body or matter have or
> >> transmit energy. Absolute zero (-460 F) is the total absence of heat;
and
> >> all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction at that temperature.
> >> Cold does not exist. We have created this word to describe how we feel
> >> if we have no heat."
> >>
> >> The student continued, "Professor, does darkness exist?"
> >>
> >> The professor responded, "Of course it does."
> >>
> >> The student replied, "Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not
> >> exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we
can
> >> study, but not darkness. In fact, we can use Newton's prism to break
> >> white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each
> >> color. You cannot measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break
> >> into a world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark
a
> >> certain space is? You measure the amount of light present. Isn't this
> >> correct?
> >> Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is
no
> >> light present."
> >>
> >> Finally the young man asked the professor, "Sir, does evil exist?"
> >>
> >> Now uncertain, the professor responded, "Of course, as I have already
> >> said. We see it everyday. It is in the daily examples of man's
> >> inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence
> >> everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but
evil.
> >>
> >> To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it
> >> does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is
> >> just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe
the
> >> absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what
> >> happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's
> >> like the cold that comes when there is no heat, or the darkness that
> >> comes when there is no light."
> >>
> >> The professor sat down.
> >>
> >>
> >>
> >> The young man's name - Albert Einstein"
