BARBER SHOP CONVERSATION
The Bible says to have an answer for why you
believe to those who ask you.
This is a good example of an answer to one
of the most common reasons people give
for ignoring God and His goodness.
A man went to a barber shop to have his hair
and his beard cut as always.
He began to have a good conversation with the
barber who attended him.
They talked about so many things and various subjects.
Suddenly, they touched on the subject of God.
The barber said: "Look man, I don't believe that God exists."
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.
"Well, it's so easy, you just have to go out in
the street to realize that God does not exist.
Oh, tell me, if God exists, would there be so
many sick people? Would there be abandoned children?
If God exists, there would be no suffering nor pain.
I can't think of loving a God who permits all of these things."
The customer thought for a moment, but he didn't
respond because he did not want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.
Just after he left the barber shop, he saw a man in the street
with long hair and a beard. It was very long, and a long time
since he had his hair cut. He looked dirty and unkempt.
The customer entered the barber shop again and
he said to the barber:
"You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say they don't exist?" asked the surprised barber.
" I am here and I am a barber. Why I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist,
because if they did there would be no people with long hair
and beard like that man who is outside."
"Ah, barbers do exist, what happens is that people
do not come to me."
"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God does
exist. What happens is people don't go to Him and
do not look for Him. That's why there's so much pain
and suffering in the world."
If you think God exists, send this to other people---
If you think God does not exist, delete it!
