wat is god???

Prof : So you believe in God?


Student : Absolutely, sir.


Prof : Is God all-powerful?


Student : Yes.


Prof : You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fellow. Is God good?


Student : Yes.


Prof : Where does Satan come from?


Student : From...God...


Prof : Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.


Prof : Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? ß All these terriblethings exist in the world, don't they?


Student : Yes, sir.

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 : 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 : 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.


Student : And is there such a thing as cold?


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 is n't. If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

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 : 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.





WANT TO KNOW WHO THAT STUDENT WAS ?

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? So do forward them to increase their knowledge... this is a true story, and the student was none other than: Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam, President of India

none of her business

This happens not only in this particular show.

One day i was watching a tamil channel . the programme was like playing the favorite song of the caller.

In a call the compeer was asking about her education. The caller replied " No, i am in home after comleting my 10 th standard ". The compeer asked " Why? " , the caller replied with some hesitation " Ya, it happened ". The compeer should have left the topic.

But she asked " Aen neenga makka ? " ( Sorry for swiching in to Tamil, because i dont know how to translate this question with the same irritating word and the feeling ) , that means are you not intelligent? .

That is none of her business . The caller might have stopped her education due to various other reasons. She might have got hurt since this will be telecasted all over the globe.

The caller might have asked her friends, relatives,etc., to view this program.

Few compeers are really good for nothing . But due to their external appearance and other factors they are still doing their job in this fashion.

eye health


Take care of your "delicate" eyes. This info' is sure to help PC usersvery much.

During a recent visit to an optician, one of my mailing
group friends was told of an exercise for the eyes by a specialist
doctor in the United States that he termed as 20-20-20."


It is apt for all of us, who spend long hours at our desks, looking at the computer screen.


I Thought I'd share it with you. 20-20-20



Step I :- After every 20 minutes of looking into the computer screen,
turn yourhead and try to look at any object placed at least 20 feet
away. This changes the focal length of your eyes, a must-do for the
tired eyes.


Step II :- Try and blink your eyes for 20 times in succession, to moisten them.


Step III :- Time permitting of course, one should walk 20 paces after
every 20 minutes of sitting in one particular posture. Helps blood
circulation for the entire body.


They say that your eyes r mirror of your soul, so do take care of them, they are priceless...

Sivaji - The Destroyer



The Super Stars film with Director Sankar,s combination, the highest expectorated film in India even in abroad also.Really the film fulfill it.If from hearty say




Mmm..mmMMmm......Ooooo....MmmMm..... no it's not.




* The highest hype film by media (national news channels run live sms rating on who is the real super star Big B / Big R).




* Mr.Sankar waste all the efforts and big huge money all the way.Even never U find a good SCENE, SHOT even a dialogue(usually Rajini's films have great dialogues, may Sankar think dialogueless could be diff ,but surprisingly the film has less in everything).



* May it fulfill the fans in somehow not completely(they saw their star for 3 hours).



* "If ur a film guy u can learn how waste cores for nothing in diff ways".



* One of the good thing is they show Rajni very young, but in action sequences his age reveals(*when he run/walk )itself sorry.When even they put dube for him in action sequences he is not match with him, its shows in screen.



* And the fighting sequences nothing new nor interesting (may the crew thing the lights from USA make the difference).



* The song r ok not the great one.



* Most Horrible Thing in this film is Scenes with Sreya in first half(Sankar JI how can u think like this ).



* And the editing is.......



* Finally the story line - Make the black money white and serve the people Sankar's default line with full of faults.



* A high aimed NRI with full of tension and political pressure in his project , leave the construction sight half way and go for romance - if like this scene u'll love film else....



* A dialogue in the movie was rajini says its my 25 years dream and 20 year earnings..so wat is rajins age now..? so funny..



* Sivaji - The Destroyer



* Shankar - director with one story line and with a low budget he cant even entertain ordinance for a half an hour

breakup



It's been 8 months since the breakup, and even though I've been pretty good about not calling her (called her last on her b'day feb month of this year), I'm still reminded of her just about every single day. Whether it's had dinner in saravana bhavan where we had gulab jamun which is the only type of sweet now i take thanks to her, I am reminded every day. My friend told me there's an equation for the mourning period. It basically takes a person half of the duration of the entire relationship to get over someone. According to this theory, it should take me two year to get over her, since we were together for four. Two year is quite a lot of time. I know some guys who've never gotten over their first girlfriends. These guys would take their old girlfriends back even today. So back to my breakup. I want this madness to stop, and it's not like I still really love her, but I don't hate her, and she did the breaking up. The problem is that I believe there's a reason for everything, but with this situation, I cannot begin to think of a possible reason for this, and it's killing me.

love and stable



there is the practical love??. See...this is what always gets to me. There is wild-assed crazy in love and all that entails and then there is steady love that supports me and ensures but its not stable why??
I am capable of taking care of myself, but it is nice to have a love that checks in. It is nice to have a love that thinks about me above others. It is nice to have a love that calls to make sure I am ok before I go to bed at night, when I'm having a rough day. All of these things are nice. And practical. But are they sustainable?

Is it more of a gamble to invest myself in love that flits in and out and fills me with inspiration, but cannot be counted on for any other purpose? I'm not sure. Steadfastness and stability seems less of a risk, but is it, really? Are there guarantees in any of it? It seems like, in the end, the odds are about even.

Is it selfish for me to want both love and it should be stable? To rely upon the love that is there and true, and eternally flirt with the muse - in whatever form she takes. Perhaps it is true that no one person will ever satisfy me. I run the risk of being alone forever.

most watched movies

Most-watched in-room movies of 2006


Hotsheetdavinci According to LodgeNet, the No. 1 provider of video-on-demand to U.S. hotels, The Da Vinci Code was the top in-room film selection in 2006. No surprise there, with popular Tom Hanks starring in the movie version of a smash bestseller.


No. 2: The Break-Up, starring funnyman Vince Vaughn and ever-cute Jennifer Aniston. It probably didn't hurt that she endured her own breakup with hubby Brad Pitt and found (alas, only fleeting) respite in the arms of her co-star.


Other most-viewed Hollywood movies:

3. Failure to Launch (Matthew McConaughey as a bachelor who doesn't wanna grow up)


4. Walk the Line (Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon as Johnny Cash and June Carter)


5. The Devil Wears Prada (Meryl Streep as the boss from fashionista Hell)

Men are better friends

Men are better friends!


Scared Women:
A wife was not at home for a whole
night. So, the very next morning, she
tells her husband that she stayed at her
girlfriend's apartment over night.

The husband calls 10 of her best
girlfriend's and none of them confirm that.

Men:
A husband was not at home for a whole
night. So he tells his wife the very
next morning, that he stayed at his
friend's apartment over night.
So the
wife calls 10 of his best friends: 5 of
them confirm that he stayed at their
apartments that night,
and the other 5 are claiming that he
still is there
with them!

Moral of the story: Men are better friends
