GOD, Does He Exist???

A man went to a barber shop to have his hair and his
beard cut as always. He started to have a good
conversation with the barber who attended him. They
talked about so many things and various subjects.

Suddenly, they touched the subject of God.

The barber said: "Look man, I don't believe that God
exists as you say so."

"Why do you say that?" - asked the client.

"Well, it's so easy, you just have to go out in the
street to realize that God does not exist. Oh, tell
me, if God existed, would there be so many sick
people? Would there be abandoned children?" If God
existed, there would be no suffering nor pain. I can't
think of a God who permits all of these things."

The client stopped for a moment thinking, but he

didn't want to respond so as to prevent an argument.

The barber finished his job and the client went out of
the shop. Just after he left the barber shop he saw a
man in the street with a long hair and beard (it
seemed that it had been a long time since he had his
cut and he looked so untidy).

Then the client again entered the barber shop and he
said to the barber: "Know what? Barbers do not exist."


"How come they don't exist?"- asked the barber. "Well,
I am here and I am a barber."

"No!" - the client exclaimed. "They don't exist

because if they did, there would be no people with
long hair and beard like that man who walks in the
street."

"Ah, barbers do exist, what happens is that people do
not come to me."

"Exactly!"- affirmed the client. "That's the point.
God does exist, what happens is people don't go to Him
and do not look for Him; that's why there's so much
pain and suffering in the world."
