The Atheist Barber

The Atheist Barber ….

A barber was once cutting a man’s hair and the barber said: ‘I don’t believe in the existence of God’ [أنا لا اؤمن بوجود الله ].

The man asked: ‘Why not?’

The barber said there is so much misery and chaos in the world. If God existed, this mess wouldn’t exist.

The man said: ‘I also don’t believe in barbers…’

The barber asked confused: ‘How do you mean?’

The man said to the barber: ‘Do you see those men outside with long hair?’

The barber said: ‘Yes.’

The man said: ‘If barbers existed, people with long and messy hair wouldn’t exist.’

The barber said: ‘We exist, but people don’t come to us!’

The man said: ‘Exactly. God also exists, but people don’t turn to God for guidance. That’s why there are so many problems in the world.’
