Creencias



El ateo preguntó al Maestro: "Dime, existe realmente un dios?"
El Maestro contestó: "Si quieres que sea perfectamente honesto contigo, no contestaré"
Mas tarde sus discípulos pidieron saber por qué no había contestado a la pregunta.
"Porque es ... incontestable" respondió el maestro.
"Entonces eres ateo?"
..."Ciertamente no. El ateo comete el error de negar aquello sobre lo que nada puede decirse"
..."Y el teista comete el error de afirmarlo!"

"Tell me," said the atheist, "Is there a God — really?"
Said the master, "If you want me to be perfectly honest with you, I will not answer."
Later the disciples demanded to know why he had not answered.
"Because the question is unanswerable," said the Master.
"So you are an atheist?"
..."Certainly not. The atheist makes the mistake of denying that of which nothing may be said
... and the theist makes the mistake of affirming it!
