DG - Insp: Don't miss even a single word... Too good
Thursday, August 6, 2009Don't miss even a single word... Too good
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty.
He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
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 endeavor, 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.
NB: I believe you have enjoyed the conversation. ..and if so...you'll probably want your friends/colleagues to enjoy the same...won't you?....
this is a true story, and the
student was none other than........ .
Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam , the former president of India .

Installation of MAC OSx86 in VMware (Windows)
Saturday, November 15, 2008Firstly, you must have the following files & software before you start your Mac OSx86 installation:
- tiger-x86 image file. [tiger-x86.tar.bz2]
- VMware Workstation. [ I'm using VMware Workstation 6
- Minimum 6 Gigabytes hard disk space.
Step 1: Install VMware Workstation into your PC.
Step 2: Extract “tiger-x86.tar.bz2″ file into any folder. You can use WinRAR to perform the extraction. Please remind that the data files from “tiger-x86.tar.bz2″ is 6 gigabytes size. So please make sure you extract it into a sufficient free space hard disk drive and the hard disk partition format/type is NTFS.
( if your partition is FAT32 or older format, you will be facing extraction error because FAT32 supports a single file size up to 4 gigabytes only. [ I encounter this problem twice before i get to solve this. my stupidity.. :P]
Step 3: After everything is ready & VMware is installed, launch the VMware Workstation now.
Step 4: Now select “New Virtual Machine” icon or go to menu “File”->”New”->”Virtual Machine”.
Step 5: At first dialog screen, click “Next”. In “Virtual machine configuration”, select“custom” and click “Next” button.
Step 6: For “Virtual machine format”, select “New-Workstation 5″ and click “Next” button.
Step 7: When asking about “Select a Guest Operating System”, select “Other” from the radio button. And Select “Other” also from the drop down list of “Version” selection.
Step 8: In “Name the Virtual Machine”, you are about to name your virtual machine name and select the location of your virtual machine. You can give any name for the virtual machine but i chose “Tiger” as the name. Now, “Browse” to the folder that contains the extracted files of tiger-x86 image [tiger-x86.tar.bz2]. Your folder should have following files: floppy.flp, tiger-x86.nvram, tiger-x86.vmdk, tiger-x86.vmsd, tiger-x86.vmx, tiger-x86-flat.img, and some .log files.
Step 9: After select the location of the folder, click on “Next” button. You will be seeing a message dialog box about “…Having two virtual machines installed in the same location can cause problem…”. Just click “Yes” from the message box.
Step 10: Now you will have to specify the amount of memory allocated to the virtual machine. If you have large memory in your PC, you can allocated more to the virtual machine else i would recommend to allocated at least “Recommended memory” size [green pointer] from the dialog box. Just click on “Next” button again once you specified the amount of memory.
Step 11: In “Network Connection” options, choose “Do not use a network connection” for now and click “Next” button.
Step 12: In “I/O adapter” types, select “Buslogic” from SCSI Adapters.
Step 13: Now you will see the “Disk” dialog box, select the second option, “Use an existing virtual disk” and click “Next” button.
Step 14: After you chose to use an existing virtual disk, you are required to select “the existing disk file”. Thus, just browse to the extracted folder and select the virtual machine disk file. The filename is “tiger-x86.vmdk”. After select the file, just click on “Finish” button. Then the message box will totally disappeared from the screen now but the VMware Workstation is still there. Don’t worry.
Step 15: Mac OS Tiger x86 is ready to launch now. Just select “Start Virtual Machine” from “Tiger” virtual machine or click on the Green Arrow button ( PLAY button) on the top left corner of the VMware.
CONGRATULATIONS!! You shall enjoy your Mac OS Tiger x86 in your VMware now.
