THE BAT AND THE WEASELS

 

A Bat fell to the ground and was caught by a Weasel, and was just going to be killed and eaten when 

 it begged to be let go. The Weasel said he couldn't do that because he was an enemy of all birds on principle. "Oh, but," said the Bat, "I'm not a bird at all: I'm a mouse." "So you are," said the Weasel, "now I come to look at you"; and he let it go. Some time after this the Bat was caught in just the same way by another Weasel, and, as before, begged for its life. "No," said the Weasel, "I never let a mouse go by any chance." "But I'm not a mouse," said the Bat; "I'm a bird." "Why, so you are," said the Weasel; and he too let the Bat go.
  Look and see which way the wind blows before you commit yourself.

However, when three members of the businessman's family were injured in a road accident and his house caught fire, he changed his mind, the coffin must be cursed . I wish I had never bought it, he said . and arranged for the coffin to be sent to the British Museum .

On the morning of the delivery, one of the two workers carrying the coffin fell and broke his leg. The other worker died two days later . Many visitors to the museum had very bad luck after visiting the coffin at the museum. Finally, the coffin was locked in a room in the basement of the museum until it could be sold .

In April 1912, the archaeologist and the coffin boarded a brand new luxury ship on it's very first voyage to New York . The name of the ship was Taitanic !!!

Note ; The story is true .

ديني هو الصحيح ودين غيري باطل !

في مناظرة بين الاستاذين في جامعة أكسفورد وهما الدكتور ريتشارد دوكنز استاذ الاحياء والدكتور جون لينكس استاذ الرياضيات بنفس الجامعة وكان محور المناظرة حول وجود الاله ففي حين ان الدكتور ريتشارد دوكنز صاحب كتاب وهم الاله ينكر وجود ه او على الاقل يرى عدم وجود فرضية تؤكد وجوده يذهب الثاني جون لينكس الى تأكيد وجوده طبقا للتفسير المسيحي لهذا الاله وما يتبع ذلك من خزعبلات التثليث والناسوت واللاهوت التي يؤمن بها أغلب المسيحيين بكل شرائحهم وطبقاتهم بالرغم من صعوبة الاقتناع عقليا بما يذهبون اليه من هذه التفسيرات التي يرفضها العقل والمنطق السوي لأي انسان عاقل.

ما لفت نظري في تلك المناظرة هي علامات الثقة واليقين التي تعبر عنها ابتسامات الثقة المطلقة التي يلمحها المرء على ملامح استاذ الرياضيات جون لينكس وهويدافع عن فرضية وجود الأله حسب الايمان المسيحي التي يؤمن بها كواحد من معتنقي تلك الديانه .

ولكني في نفس الوقت الاحظ تلك الثقة الايمانية ترسم على وجوه كل اصحاب الديانا والمذاهب بلا استثناء بما فيهم المسلمين سنة وشيعه.

فهل هذا يعني ان العقل والمنطق يتوقف عن التفكير تماما لدى الشخص المؤمن مهما كان دينه ومذهبه.

فتراه يحول نصوص دينه ويؤلها تأويل يشئ بالمعجزات المكنونة داخل النصوص بل وتراه يحول التناقضات التي يراها الناس من اتباع الديانات الاخرى في دينة الى اعجازات وبلاغه لا يستطيع بشرا أن يأتي بمثلها كائن من كان.

فهل هذا هو السبب ان اتباع الاديان بكل اطيافها وانواعها يستمرون على الاستماتة بالتمسك بأديانهم مما يجعلهم يتهدجون تأثرا عندما يتلون نصوص اديانهم ووصاياها ويستعرضون سير مؤسسيها.

وهل لهذا السبب استمرت تلك الاديان تتناقلها اجيال الاتباع جيلا وراء جيل يستميتون في الدفاع عنها واتباع تعاليمها وطقوسها حتى الممات.
