A man went to a barber shop to have his hair and his beard cut as always. He began to have a good conversation with the barber who attended him. They talked about so many things and various subjects. suddenly, they touched on the subject of God. The barber said: Look man, I dont believe that God exists. Why do you say that? asked the customer. Well, its so easy; you just have to go out in the street to realize that God does not exist. oh, tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God exists, there would be neither suffering nor pain, I cant think of loving a God who permits all of these things. The customer thought for a moment, but he didnt respond because he did not want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barber shop, he saw a man in the street with long hair and a beard, very long, and it was long time since he had his hair cut. He looked dirty and unkempt. The customer entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber: You know what? Barbers do not exist. How can you say they dont exist? Asked the surprised barber. I am here and I am a barber. Why I just worked on you! No! the customer exclaimed. Barbers doesnt exist, because if they did, there would be no people with long hair and beard like that man who is outside. Ah, barbers do exist, what happens is that people do not come to me. Exactly!- affirmed the customer. Thats the point! God does exist. What happens is people dont go to him and do not look for Him. Thats why theres so much pain and suffering in the world.
