A bright young man says to me just a couple of days ago, I have a paradox for you, if there was a god, could he create an object so heavy that he could not pick it up? And then with excitement he says, Because if he could, he would not truly be all powerful I say to him, Thats a really fun to think about, He already has created an object so heavy he cannot lift. B.Y.M. looks at me puzzled. I say to him, That object is your heart, only you can choose to follow or believe in him. (Yes I am fairly Armenian) BYM looks at me and smiles, Never thought about it like that. A few minutes pass and I say to B.Y.M., I have a bit of a paradox for you to consider, he smiles and says, OK! I say, Do you love your mom? BYM, Yes. Me, Do you love your dad? BYM, Yes. Me, Do you love your sister? BYM, No (with a mischievous grin) Me, So do you believe in love? BYM, Yes Me, So prove to me that love exists. You cant observe it with your senses or with an instrument BYM grins and says, I cant... I cant prove it Me, Thats a fun thing to think about isnt it? BYM, It is.. (What a cool young man that these thoughts are on his mind, and that he was open to discussion and thought! Some day this guy is going to do big things.)
