The Professor
and The Student
A
college student was in a
philosophy class which had a discussion about God's existence.
The professor presented the following logic:
"Has
anyone in this class heard
God?" Nobody spoke.
"Has anyone in this class touched
God?" Again, nobody spoke.
"Has anyone in this class seen
God?" When nobody spoke for the
third time, he simply stated, "Then there is no God."
One
student thought for a
second, and then asked for permission to reply. Curious to hear
this bold student's response, the professor granted it, and the student
stood up and asked the following questions of his classmates:
"Has
anyone in this class heard our
professor's
brain?" Silence.
"Has anyone in this class touched our
professor's brain?"
Absolute silence.
"Has anyone in this class seen our
professor's brain?" When
nobody in the class dared to speak, the student concluded, "Then,
according to our professor's logic, it must be true that our professor
has no brain!"
The student received an "A" in the class.
