It is actually a sad story. It is easy to smash 'atheists' to pieces. We can

do it in no time. But his last sentence brings pain into my heart. "So,

happy now? You were right all along. What happens now?"

 

Yes, what happens now? Will he be able to take up KC? And if he does, will

he be able to survive in ISKCON, where everybody is so 100% pure, and

nobody, I mean NOBODY, is stealling anything from Krsna. Just pure,

unalloyed service to the Lord....

 

You proved that stealing from Krsna is bad, bad, bad. What happens now? Can

we offer solid alternative to this person? If he gives up everything of this

dirty stealing world, and comes living to our own place, our house or

temple, can we provide proper environment for him? No stealing from Krsna,

just giving pure service 24/7?

 

It is sad story indeed, both for him and for us.
