> 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. "

>

> If you think God exists, send this to other

> If you think God does not exist, delete it!
