Think Before Judging…..

Question 1:

Pretty interesting isn’t it? Makes a person think ,before judging someone!

 

Funny….

Two priests decided to go to Hawaii on vacation. They were determined to

make this a real vacation escape by not wearing anything that would

identify them as clergy. As soon as the plane landed, they headed for a

store and bought some outrageous shorts, shirts and sandals.

The next morning they went to the beach dressed in their tourist garb.

They were sitting on beach chairs, enjoying a drink, the sunshine and the

scenery when a drop dead gorgeous blonde wearing shorts came

walking straight towards them.

They couldn’t help but stare. As the blonde passed them she smiled and

said, “Good Morning, Father. Good Morning, Father,” nodding and addressing

each of them individually.

They were both stunned. How in the world did she know they were priests?

So the next day, they went back to the store and bought even more

outrageous outfits. These were so loud you could hear them before you saw

them. Once again, in their new attire, they settled on the beach in their

chairs to enjoy the sunshine.

After a while, the same gorgeous blonde,

taking her sweet time, came walking toward them. Again she

nodded at each of them, she said, “Good morning, Father. Good morning,

Father,” and started to walk away.

One of the priests couldn’t stand it any longer and said, “Just a minute,

young lady.”

“Yes, Father?” she said.

“We are priests and proud of it, but I have to know, how in the world did

you know we are priests, Dressed as we are?”

“Father, it’s me, Sister Margaret.”

Does God Exist??

Does God Exist?? 

This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen: A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed.

As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.They talked about so many things and various subjects.

When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said:

“I don’t believe that God exists.”

“Why do you say that?” asked the customer. “Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn’t exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people?

Would there be abandoned children?

If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain.

I can’t imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things.”

The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he didn’t want to start an argument.The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.

Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt.

The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber: “You know what? Barbers do not exist.”

“How can you say that?” asked the surprised barber.

“I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!”

“No!” the customer exclaimed. “Barbers don’t exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside.”Ah, but barbers DO exist! That’s what happens when people do not come to me.”

“Exactly!” affirmed the customer. “That’s the point! God, too, DOES exist! That’s what happens when people do not go to Him and don’t look to Him for help. That’s! why there’s so much pain and suffering in the world.”

Easy way of learning
