READ THIS!! [very interesting]
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.

Lyrics
The last time I felt like this
Hello, I don’t even know your name
But I’m hopin’ all the same
This is more than just a simple hello?
Hello, do I smile and look away
No, I think I’d smile and stay to see
Where this might go
`Cause the last time I felt like this
I was falling in love
Falling and feeling
I’d never fall in love again
Yes the last time I felt like this
Was long before I knew
What I’m feeling now with you
Hello, I can’t wait ’til we’re alone
Somewhere quite on your own
So that we could fall the rest of the way
I know that before the night is through
I’ll be talking love to you
Meaning every word I say
`Cause the last time I felt like this
I was falling in love
Falling and feeling
I’d never fall in love again
Yes, the last time I felt like this
Was long before I knew
What I’m feeling now with you
Oh, the last time I felt like this
I was falling in love
Falling and feeling
I’d never fall in love again
Yes, the last time I felt like this
Was long before I knew
What I’m feeling now with you
Never Thought
Can I touch you?
I can’t believe that you are real
How did I ever find you?
You are the dream that saved my life
You are the reason I survived
Baby…
I never thought that I could love
Someone as much as I love you
I know it’s crazy but it’s true
I never thought that I could need
Someone as much as I need you
I love you…
Can I hold you?
Girl your smile lights up the sky
You are too beautiful for the human eye
You are the dream that never dies
You are the fire that burns inside
Baby…
I never thought that I could love
Someone as much as I love you
I know it’s crazy but it’s true
I never thought that I could need
Someone as much as I need you
I love you…
You are the sinshine in the sky
You are the sparkle in my eyes
I never thought that I could love
Someone as much as I need you
I know it’s crazy but it’s true
I never thought that I could need
Someone as much as I need you
I love you

~

Jamie: I might be bad at it.
Landon: That’s not possible.
~

~
7. Landon: Can you find this star, right here?
Jamie: Sure. So why am I looking for this star?
Landon: Because I had it named for you. See? It’s official. It’s from the International Star Registry.
Jamie: This is wonderful… I love you.
~
8. Landon: Hey. How are you feeling?
Jamie: I’m ok, how are you?
Landon: Pretty good.
Jamie: I have something for you.
Landon: You do?
Jamie: Uh hmm… Don’t worry it’s not a bible. It was my mother’s. It’s got quotes from all her favorite books, and quotes by famous people. Her thoughts. Come on.
Landon: Okay, let’s check it out. Okay…”What is a friend? It’s a single soul dwelling in two bodies.” -Aristotle.
Jamie: Uh uh, right here.
Landon: Okay. “Find out who you are, and do it on purpose.” That’s Dolly Parton.

[she nods]
Landon: Will you do something for me, then?
Jamie: [smiles] Anything.
Landon: Will you marry me?

Landon: I’ll take you home. You’ll be be…
Jamie: No. Landon! I’m sick. I have Leukemia.
Landon: No. You’re 18. You - you’re perfect.
Jamie: No. I found out two years ago and I’ve stopped responding to treatments.
Landon: So why didn’t you tell me?
Jamie: The doctor said I should go on and live life normally as best I could. I - I didn’t want anybody to be weird around me.
Landon: Including me?
Jamie: Especially you!
[Jamie looks down]
[Landon gets upset]
Jamie: Ya know, I was getting along with everything fine. I accepted it, and then you happened! I do not need a reason to be angry with God.
[Jamie runs away]
11. Jamie: [after she and Landon keep switching the radio station] Forty-two.
Landon: “Forty-two”, what do you-what do you mean “forty- two”?
Jamie: Forty-two is “Befriend somebody I don’t like”. It’s a to-do list I have.
Landon: What, like getting a new personality?
Jamie: Spend a year in the Peace Corps, make a medical discovery…
Landon: That’s ambitious.
Jamie: …Be in two places at once, get a tattoo.
Landon: What’s number one?
Jamie: I’d tell you, but then I’d have to kill you.
Landon: So, what’s your number one?

~
12. Jamie: You have to promise you won’t fall in love with me.
Landon: That’s not a problem.
~
13. Jamie: Are you trying to seduce me?
Landon: Why? Are you seducible?
~
14. Jamie: Please don’t pretend like you know me, ok?
Landon: But I do, I do. We’ve had all the same classes in the same school since kindergarten. Why you’re Jamie Sullivan. You sit at lunch table 7. Which isn’t exactly the reject table, but is definitely in self exile territory. You have exactly one sweater. You like to look at your feet when you walk. Oh, oh, and yeah, for fun, you like to tutor on weekends and hang out with the cool kids from “Stars and Planets.” Now how does that sound?
Jamie: Fairly predictable, nothing I haven’t heard before.
Landon: You don’t care what people think about you?
Jamie: No.
~
15. Landon: Are you scared?
Jamie: To death…
[Landon looks upset]
Jamie: Lighten up.
Landon: It’s not funny.
Jamie: I’m scared of not being with you.
Landon: Oh baby, that will never happen… I’ll be here.
~
16. Jamie: People can see.
Landon: And that would ruin your reputation how?
~
17. Jamie: You don’t know the first thing about being someone’s friend.
Landon: I don’t want to just be your friend.
Jamie: You don’t know what you want.
Landon: Neither do you. Maybe you’re just too scared that someone might actually want to be with you.
Jamie: And why would that scare me?
Landon: Because then you wouldn’t be able to hide behind your books, or your frickin’ telescope, or your faith. No, no, you know the real reason why you’re scared? It’s cause you wanna be with me too.
~
18. A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs - jolted by every pebble in the road. - Henry Ward Beecher (From the movie A Walk To Remember)
~
19. Death is the surest calculation that can be made. - Ludwig Büchner (From the movie A Walk To Remember)
~
20. [last lines]
Landon: [voiceover] Jamie saved my life. She taught me everything. About life, hope and the long journey ahead. I’ll always miss her. But our love is like the wind. I can’t see it, but I can feel it.
