Dear Rashid
The reality of the countless quadzillion objects (including the atoms) without a
pillar is a stark reality, and the Quran simply reminds us of this. You do
not cease to astound me when you ask 'how scientific those facts are’. We
have been talking about the orbits in the universe that any scientist knows
and will confirm as fact. Why don't you go and ask a scientist, at least
you might believe them. Then tell
them that the Quran says this too, and see if they turn around and deny the
existence of these orbits.
Unfortunately those who are
burdened by the baggage of the past, the bad experiences from religion and
fake gods, are unable to shed this and remove themselves from the shackles
that cloud their common sense and clear thinking. They are an easy prey for being brain
washed. One can parallel their behavior to that of a blind rat that firmly
rejects everything around him that he cannot see. Sometimes these people
can be deprogrammed. More often, they cannot - it depends on their
sincerity and quest for the truth.
Here are a few simple questions
that demonstrate the fact that these people are incorrigible and the
magnitude of this incurable disease. Perhaps some of them will snap out of
their trance.
- If you see a beautiful picture
on the wall, will you
1) admit there has to be an
artist that painted the picture
2) insist that there cannot be an
artist
If you chose 1), then let us say
the picture was one of stars in the sky going around in perfect orbits.
Why then will you deny that, when
you see the real thing, a live picture, that there is no artist or designer
behind it?
- If you see a ball (tennis ball,
volley ball etc) suspended 20 feet above ground, with no support and
spinning on its axis, will you
1) be puzzled initially,
investigate and conclude that there is some mysterious force or designer
causing it
2) insist that it is all
happening by itself without any reason
If your answer is 1), and you see
the moon (and countless other bodies) up there, spinning and moving, a live
scene, without any physical support,
why then
will you deny that there is something or someone behind it?
There is always hope that the
remnants of intellectual honesty might one day surface from the dark
recesses of close mindedness, and denial for the sake of denial, and that
these people somehow realize that to "attack to only tear down"
is a futile strategy. The
hopelessness of not being able to provide answers cannot be intoxicated by
seeking refuge behind the mere words 'there is no answer' which gradually
and deftly morphs into 'the answer is no'.
Perhaps a good beginning would be
'the answer is maybe'.
