Science & GOD .. More than a century ago, a proud university student boarded a train in France and sat next to an older man who seemed to be a peasant of comfortable means. The brash student noticed that the older gentleman was slipping beads through his fingers. He was praying the rosary. Sir, do you still believe in such outdated things?” the student inquired. Yes, I do. Dont you? the man responded. The student laughed I do not believe in such silly things. Take my advice. Throw the rosary out of the window, and learn what science has to say about it.“ Science? I do not understand this science. Perhaps you can explain it to me”, the man said humbly. The university student noticed that the man was deeply moved. To avoid hurting further the older persons feelings, he said,Please give me your address and I will send you some literature to explain the matter to you. The man fumbled in the inside pocket of his coat and pulled out his business card. On reading the card, the student lowered his head in shame and was speechless. The card read Louis Pasteur, Director of the Institute of Scientific Research, Paris.
